Question about Irenicus's voice

Manveru · Post by **Manveru** » Tue Mar 20, 2001 9:30 am

Do you know where could I find Irenicus's sounds files for my character ?
His voice is awesome. I like this speech "I cannot be caged, I cannot be controled..." and other ones ("You will suffer you will all suffer !!")

.

I would be grateful for any ideas.

I believe that the guys at Gamer's Allegiance have all the BG2 NPC soundsets available for download.

They also have some nice original ones.

Irenicus is a real life famous actor and while I can visual his face I can't seem to remember his name.
He's a tall older gentleman with graying hair. Let me know if anyone remembers his name.

David Warner

He does have a rather distinctive voice doesn't he (which is why I feel they shouldn't have used him to bulk out the misc sounds like merchants).

BTW Anonem sounds just like Mr. Peterman (Elaine's boss) from Seinfeld.

Thanks man for your help. Finally I have got it. So, I could enjoy my favourite evil NPC's voice

*Why* would you want to have your pc with his sound files for. Sure it sounds awesome, but *why*. It's stupid.......but thats my view, and thats your view. Do as you wish...

That's David Warner. He's a client and friend of a friend of mine, a classically trained actor who (according to his agent) continually moans that he can't get good jobs doing Shakespeare, Jonson, Sheridan, etc. It must be singularly mortifying to him to end up being best known to many people as the voice of Jon Irenicus.

Well, he will be remembered at least, since BG2 will be remembered. There arent many games as good as BG2, and i wonder if there will be.

It is just a game. And the aim of playing games is to enjoy it not to be wise or stupid .

Fable,
If you're like me and like Sci-fi as well as fantasy, then some of David Warner's credits might be familiar to you:

Film / Role
Wing Commander / Admiral Tolwyn
Star Trek 5 / Human Ambassador
Star Trek 6 / Chancellor Gorkon

But, perhaps most famously:
A Christmas Carol (w/George C. Scott)
He was Bob Cratchet.

Peace.

Am I the only one who thinks Mae'var sounds a hella bit like Kevin Spacey? (Obviously, I know it isn't him.)

Dolath, he was also The Evil Being in Time Bandits. About the others I didn't know, since...

I can't stand Star Trek.

No, put down that knife...!

Ha! I noticed that too. I checked out the credits, and didn't see his name. Who knows...
