Fuck this shit.

I did a female voice once. Half the players at the table were gawking at me, one of the others was laughing and the last one had a very prominent blush on his face.
This is why I don't do voices any more.
>>47256208
That's when you do your Scarlett Johansson impression.
Pictured, tough female mercenary.
I joined a game without realizing that we were doing IC in voice chat (I'm used to OOC voice chat and IC text chat), where I had a signed up as an old witch.
I just said fuck it and did my best, and people had a good time. No one expects you to be a professional voice actor.

>no massive stuffed codpiece
That is no landsknecht!
>>47256277
So are you and the blushing player dating or what?
>>47256208
Just talk like the Boss.
Smoke a pack of cigarettes and pretend to be a cute girl
>>47256424
No. Apparently I sounded almost exactly like one of the girls in an eroge he plays.
I'm not that big of a faggot, senpai.
>>47256447
>>47256462
One of these. Or both.
>>47256462
>this advice taken out of context
>>47256384
When you have dem hips you don't need to stuff your codpiece.
That or she wants everybody to know they're getting their asses kicked by a girl.
Maybe she's comfortable with the size of her penis.

>ScarJo
Sound like you're dead inside?
>>47256357
That quest is shit.
>>47256585
He should be able to pull it off.
Lets hear them character voices:

Then she doesn't need a stuffed codpiece because she already has her compensator.

First time I tried a female voice, I gave her a deep, sultry voice.
I was worried about trying it, but after I did, everyone said they were impressed.
I'd vocaroo it, but I'm in the ass end of nowhere on my phone as my only internet connection.
>>47256208
I usually roll "femme fatale" if its gotta be womanly yet deep at the same time. Ain't much of a range, but it gets the job done
>>47256588
What quest?
>>47262468
It's in a horrible place.
Also, in said quest, the MC killed a young boy by raping him so hard he cracked his head open on the stone floor.
>>47262497
what does this have anything to do with trying to voice act tough women
>>47262824
About as much as tough women have to do with /tg/.
>>47256384
>Though mercenary grill who has a severe case of penis envy and is incredibly jealous of the large bulges of her brothers in arms
Why is this hot? This shouldn't be hot
>>47256523
I'd pick The Boss over Debra any day.
>>47256208
Tough female mercenaries never actually existed, and you shouldn't feel compelled to include them in your game for PC points.
>>47264280
I'm pretty sure in fantasy settings girls need not suffer from the genetic or cultural limitations imposed by reality. Because fantasy.
>>47256208
Pitch higher, make rougher. Try for Ryoko of the first season Tenchi Muyo. This isn't hard.
>>47256208
I get people to do lines for me. I though a lot of people did that. Does no one use vocaroo anymore?

This is why I decided to stick to text only games.

Turns out one of the party members is a serious audiophile and became incredibly sexually attracted to the sound of him speaking. The guy can't use phones and has to buy high quality mics due to his incredibly deep voice distorting audio.
>>47256208
Mm, I think the voice's inflection is only part of the whole.
I tend to prioritize vocabulary, cadence, and some reliable idiosyncrasies. Of course, trying to simulate the pitch of the characater can come off as very humorous--but that is clearly not always optimal.
>>47256208
You know, you can just describe what the characters sound like, you don't actually NEED to do an impression.

Goddamn.
Had our GM voice a squeaky voiced ork teen NPC last session (Shadowrun)
Entire table burst into laughter

Unf.
>>47265410
>flirty southern belles
Literally the best kind of woman there is.
>>47265466
>The GM gives you foot from under the table as the NPC flirts with you
>>47265538
Aaaand you ruined it.
>>47265410
>southern accents
Absolutely disgusting. You should feel ashamed of yourself. Literally the only way you could make that worse is if it was a Boston accent.
>>47256588
The picture is quite nice though.
