Sentient Jewel Voices

[mistress_minx]

Are there any players who would be willing to make videos of their sentient jewels voices for us, and post them on youtube for us to find through its search ? Then start a thread here that people can use to post links to those videos as well ? Wiki tells you what each says, but I'd like to know what they sound like as well. Thank you !!!

Timid sounds like Jerry, just saying.

I don't have a way to record the voice, but HOPEFUL sounds a lot like a valley girl cheerleader to me. I almost replaced it, as it was/is a bit annoying with the "We're going where to do what? THAT SOUNDS AMAZING" and the "You're really good at this!" lines... but it has grown on me some. it is also helpful that the gem is on a lvl 29 weapon, so I only use it for a couple weeks before TR'ng again.

Can't help with recording/video but I can give examples:
Hopeful - soprano, very peppy female not unpleasant but too cheerful and excitable for me
Resolute - alto female warrior, excellent for a paladin or fighter, encouraging but understated
Inquisitive - sneering, high pitched male voice, sounds like a manipulative weasel, very untrustworthy person
Furious - Deep, gruff voiced male, very much a warrior, ironically funny, slightly accented
Timid - voiced by our community manager Cordovan, not unpleasant but his lines annoy me because they're so cowardly which is I guess why its named Timid
Kobold - high pitched silly kobold lines, funny, but only if you like kobold banter
Whelm - Exuberant heavily accented dwarf voice, higher tone than Furious but lower than Timid, pleasant but often I can't tell what he's saying and I only hear it from my hubby's speakers because I don't have it myself.

I have no idea what any of the others sound like because none of (my family) have Wave, Blackrazor, or Covetous. Actually, I don't know anyone with Covetous.

Blackrazor sounds like the Black Abbot: a male voice with tons of reverb.

Thank you all !!!! I appreciate your help <3

Aelonwy : That was very helpful and I thank you for taking the time to write it. I tried to add to your rep, but it said I've given out too much today. I'll hit you up with it when I'm allowed to again

Wave is a female voice, that much I know. Mildly accented (maybe Irish) and like a sailor with the terms she uses. She sings too. Maybe somebody can describe her better, and the other two as well ?

That is the one that I have right now, and I love her She is so positive, and makes me feel good about my game play, lol. Even when I do something stupid and die, she is still upbeat about it.

Hopeful has some of the best lines. While I'm not a fan of the voice actress's work in the few quests she does, she's perfect for this gem. I find her funny. I use Hopeful and Blackrazor for the stark contrast.

[droid327]

Hopeful is super annoying to me. I like resolute. I wish kobold was available somewhere easier like crystal cove, or as a chase goal for cannith challenges. And that they would just have more "regular" voices, not all "funny" somehow.

I can record, I have Wave (my favorite), Hopeful, Resolute, and Inquisitive. While Wave is voiced by a lady I’m convinced the character is supposed to be a little old seaman/fisherman. Skinny, wasted, leathery, tough yet sentimental loving all things to do with the sea. Being a retired sailor, Wave really strikes me in a good place

Anyway I’ll make some videos and post links here ( they will be unedited though)

[ianflaer]

First one up, Wave: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6lkYjdJgYfU

more to be posted tomorrow as it is getting late and I have to upload them

The songs he sings are bits of the following real life sea shanties/ballads :
Stormalong
Padstow Farewell
Don't Forget your Old Shipmate
Lowlands Away

Here's the video for the Resolute

and the last one I have is the Inquisitive: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S-5y9xUpkEM

I can't seem to get rid of the echo completely even when I have my only microphone completely unplugged and everything, brand new drivers. this was the best sounding run I had

[Pnumbra]

The gem is the best. She is bat-sh!t-crazy. I love how she screams out for no reason. I never get tired of her. Well done!

seems like at least once per mission I'll be sneaking along and Hopeful will yell "WOO-HOOOO!" LOL really? right now? I'm sneaking here!

[Oliphant]

Covetous is the best, sounds like a treasure hunter with some kind of accent, maybe spanish. If you explain how I make a video I can post it. But remember, explain to me as if to a small child... or golden retriever. Occurs to me I would need to create a youtube account too for the purpose. Hmm, maybe not going to happen after all.
