    Tony Jay, the voice actor who voiced Kresselack from Icewind Dale and The Transcendent One in Planescape: Torment, among other games and films, such as the Hunchback of Notre Dame where he voiced Judge Frollo, died at the age of 73 on 13 August.

    "Most young people today will easily recognize his voice," Matthew Kowalewski, a gamer who posts comments on http://www.evilavatar.com , said via e-mail. "A lot of gamers will miss his work because he had a lot of roles in cult favorite series," including "Fallout" and "Legacy of Kain."

    Kresselack's was one of my favourite character voices. The actor managed to sound bored and threatening at the same time, which fitted the dead warlord perfectly.

    RIP, man.

    aww, I like that Kresselack dude. Now, will Tony Jay similarly haunt an ancient tomb?
