I love this thread! Some who definitely do not resemble their BG portraits:

I thought the name Kath Soucie sounded familiar, so I looked up something... sure enough, she did voice-acting for a couple characters in an old Western game I played (Outlaws) and the female voice of the Master in Fallout. She gets around.

She definitely does NOT look like the picture of Aerie though.

I notice a lot of the Black Isle games use the same voice actors - David Warner is Morpheus in Fallout too, and quite a few of the others crop up in different games.

And yeah, Scipio, I did see it, but she's a nice looking lady so I'll let you off. ;)

Tress MacNielle probably does look like Edwina...just not like Eddie, thankfully!

Kath Soucie


Did like, half the voices on every other 90s Nickelodeon show. Melissa Disney did some as well.

And so long as we're including the composers, we simply must not forget Inon Zur who did Throne of Bhaal's soundtrack.... Totally brilliant man (he also did IWD's soundtrack, on a side note).


Jeremy Soule did the IWD Soundtrack if I'm not mistaken. Inon Zur did IWD2.

You are completely correct, sorry, that's a typo of mine (I'm still struggling with the switch back to the AZERTY... :angry: ). I'll correct it at once!

Aerie's voice actress sounds like the girl twin on the Rugrats. I'm gonna check that out.

She is indeed both the boy and girl twins, as well as their mother.

They say the world is going to Hell.

They are wrong.

The world IS Hell! Always has been, always will be; except perhaps for the five percent or so of the population who can afford differently.

And, if one must reside in Hell, it is far better to do it as a minion of the Devil than as a member of the damned.

Yes, I'm lame enough to reply to my own post, but... Every time I see this pleasant, smiling face, it's so hard for me to imagine that booming "Blasted arrogant wench!!!" coming out of his mouth.

Did I mention "handsome"? (See avatar, left.)

I remember coming across something about Melissa Disney (Imoen) doing some singing, I think.

I have added many more voice actors' faces. Go to the first post in this thread, which I have updated to put everything together so that you don't have to scroll down.

CAM CLARKE - Drizzt Do'Urden, Aran Linvail


JEFF BENNETT - Xan; also Elminster, Saemon, Cespenar, Drizzt, Gaelen Bayle, Yakman, Cyric, Carros, Carsten


Okay, which one is now Driz'zt?

Brilliant, Scipio! Thank you so much!

(I am just not used to seeing Michael Dorn not looking like Worf. Whenever I hear Bhaal, I see Worf.)

@Deathsangel - Jeff Bennet was Drizzt in BG1, and Cam Clarke was Drizzt in BG2.

I suppose we'd have to try the long way round to find out. Listen to Bennett and Clarke in BG2, then determine which one sounds like Drizzt in BG1.

Ha! Thanks, Amaurea. I'll update the #1 post.

GREY DELISLE - Viconia, Nalia; also Bubbles, Raelis Shae, Illasera, Nyallee, Diaytha, Fll'yissetat

I believe she also did the voice for Skie in BG1.

As long as we're adding what other work the voice actors have done, Jeff Bennett voiced Petrie in The Land Before Time. He also voiced Johnny Bravo.
