[QUOTE="Beleriphon, post: 7907265, member: 27847"] I'll act. For gnomes, especially the crazy explosion inclined ones, I tend to pitch my voice up, talk much faster, and do my best to be nasally. For a particular bombastic bad guy I'll try my best to emulate the Cage Demonwolf from Empowered. I can manage a seven word alliteration combo at least one per scene with such a character I'll call that a win. Otherwise, pitch and cadence, are the two best tools I can use voice wise to be a different character. Accents are hard, I can affect a reasonably fake Russian accent that sounds like it belongs a terrible spy movie from the 80s, but I can keep it consistent and I think that's keep. Nobody cares if your British accent isn't right, as long as it is consistently not right. Pulling a Costner is bad. As for my personal preference, funny voices can be fun. A bit of acting can be fun. I say go for it DM, you're all there to have fun. [/QUOTE]
