[QUOTE="thundershot, post: 1442133, member: 628"] I've been DMing for a long time (15 years) and I've always run into the problem of not remembering what voice an NPC had. With so many NPCs, it's almost impossible to get the same voice for some of the less memorable ones. And when it comes time to use them again, I'll wing it, and the players will sometimes say "Hey, that's not what he sounded like last time. He's got a different accent!" or something akin to that. I know a lot of DM's just describe what the NPC tells the PC's, but as an aspiring voice actor, I'd feel silly if I didn't voice my NPC's. Ah, many a townsfolk has succumbed to my "Old Geezer" voice. I want my players to enjoy variety, but it's hard to keep track! Anyone else have this problem? Hell, how many people "speak" the roles of their NPCs rather than getting to the point? Thanks Chris [/QUOTE]
