Saucie has the voice of the singer of a finnish power metal band Sonata Arctica
Encaitare has a maniac laugh (like Snow-white's stepmother in the Disney movie)
Boromir88 sounds like Sean Bean in LotR

Ha ha, that's great! I think that's a compliment, though. Sonata boys themselves claim to be a rock band so it's not anything too high-pitched.

None of you have a voice in my head when I read your posts but this is how I'd imagine you to speak in RL.

I think Esty has a warm and mellow voice but when she gets irritated, her voice becomes rather piercing and a little nasal.

Boromir's voice is very pleasant to listen to and if he sang in a choir, he'd be a Tenor.

Lhuna has a very clear articulation and a girlish laughter.

Woo, I sound like Sean Bean, my favorite actor (big surprise?). Some have said I do the "Not with 10,000 men could you even do this," very well and sound like him. But, I think anyone can do an English accent, it's one of the more easier accents in my mind.

I assure you, you don't want to hear me sing. Though my voice isn't hideous just talking, it should be pleasant....?

Let's see if I can do this....

Ummm....
Fordim and davem have the voice of one of those Hardvard Grads, you know the..."I'm a graduate of Harrrrrrrvard studying in the degree of lhhhhawww. Whilst driving down the street in my vollllvo...." anyway you get the idea.

Who do I imagine has that "Nu York" accent...I think, Bethberry.

Chekov's accent goes to Meneltarmacil.

And for some reason I think Estel would sound like Darth Vader.

More to come later hopefully.

1420! Woo!

spawn has a creepy, film-Galadriel-in-green-and-black voice. Because she's a giant spider.

Shelob, too. Though she may have odd growls and snarls and howls at times, being wolf twice an all.

Gurthang and Formendacil has the same voice for me, kinda like how book-Gandalf sounds in my head. A very gruff voice who knows what he's talking about. Must be a testament to how smart--and old-sounding in the forum --these two are.

The voice of a man who had too much scotch would be closer, perhaps.

Oh, he's done it! He's gone and uncloaked me. Yes, it's true. I'm Brenda Morgenstern.

And to return the favour, let me say that Boromir88 does not sound like Sean Bean. Not at all. He's Carlton the Doorman.

Ah, my dear dear B88, you could not be more wrong....

Well, my main reason for thinking the New York accent was because a few days ago I watched My Cousin Vinny. And the actress in that has a huge New York accent...Ya Know. Brenda Morgenstern works though.

Carlton the Doorman, I'm quite honored.

You're....scottish?! Well, either that or a born-again Geordie...

Good lord, Bethberry with a New York accent! Shockaroo! Now that I never imagined - you had a rather more...mellifluous voice, if that doesn't sound too predictable: rather like I would imagine an elf speaking, I'm afraid. Say Liv Tyler at her nobler Arwen moments. The song 'A Nightingale Sang in Berkley Square' also comes to mind - just listen to it, it gives some sort of indication of the aura of The Bethberry. But 'Nu Yawk' - never!

Quote:
[Amanaduial] has a classic feminine voice that is quite common on those American comercials.
...not American, so I'm not sure what that would sound like Morai, and for the same reason I find it a little unlikely that I would fit the criteria - but hey, the words 'class feminine' do rather appeal *preens*
