    Who is the voice actor for Goldander Blackenrock, the leader of the svirfneblin in the Underdark?

    I just know that I've heard that voice in movies before, but for the life of me I just can't connect it to a name or face?

    Does anybody know?

    [​IMG] More to the point, is there anywhere a person can find a complete list of WHO did WHAT voice in the game? There's a list of credits at the back of the manual, but no link-up to what character(s) they voice. I saw Dwight Schulz in there, I believe he used to play Murdock on The A-Team, but I can't place his voice in the game.

    Imdb has a few to start. The end game credits has even more.

    And there's various other databases that have the odd three or four others that a BG search will bring up.

    Viconia isn't listed at imdb. I had to find her name hidden back on the "other" database. Someone has a huge base of strictly cartoon voice actors. Viconia is a pretty good name to do a google search for; do that, and you'll find the database that I'm talking about.

    http://www.imdb.com

    It's an abbrevation of: Internet Movie Database

    Nothing to do with how smart you are. Just how well you're civilized with the internet. ;)

    This is the SOA list only, BTW, although we can certainly recognize some of the new TOB characters... the [snip] is Melissa Disney (Imoen), for example.

    [This forum is for SoA only, so no ToB spoilers, thanks.] -Tal

    [​IMG] Just another 'dumb' question while we're at it:

    when I play, I only get the first sentence in voice; then its all reading from there on - is this how its supposed to be or is there anything wrong with my settings??? :confused:

    Sorry if thats been asked before...

    Thanks a million jcompton,

    It was one of those things where every time I go to the Deep Gnome village, I hear that voice. And then every single time, I'm like "who the f*** is that?!"

    Yeah, jcompton, most impressive.

    That right there, cleaned up, is SP kind of submission material. Voice actor names have come up a few times before.

    I wonder if you can find the complete list for PsT, IwD, and ToB, too?

    Getting voice-acting is expensive, so Bioware decided to save money and have the lesser-importance characters only speak the first line.

    This is cool. The list that jcompton had. My question is: Do you have one for Baldur's Gate I? Or any other games covered on SP?

    Nope, this is all I have. Chris Borders of Interplay posted it to Usenet a couple of years ago.
