HOUSE STARSHINE · CHARACTER AUDITIONS
More teeth.
Less tavern manners.
Two new orc directions and a sharper goblin: a heavy, rumbling warlord; a scarred line-breaker; and a sly trapmaster. Newly generated performances with stronger creature direction.
Auditions only. These voices have not been added to bosses in the game.
NEW AUDITION
Orc B — the scarred line-breaker
Shields forward! Break their line! No one crosses my ground and walks away laughing.
6.64 seconds · original character voice design
Pronunciation check: both automatic transcripts hear “Shield forward” rather than the scripted “Shields forward”. The remaining words match.
NEW AUDITION
Goblin — the needle-toothed trapmaster
Quiet, you lumps! Let the heroes come closer. I want to see their faces when the floor disappears.

Compare with the original studies
The first takes are preserved here. Joel found them too human-sounding; the new designs explore rougher voices and more forceful character acting.
Original orc study
You have crossed my ground. Now hold your line, or run before the drums find you.
Original goblin study
Oh, splendid. More heroes. Mind the traps, mind the arrows, and do try to make it interesting.
What was checked
All three previews passed format, duration and peak/clipping checks. Automatic transcripts match Orc A and the goblin; Orc B has the singular/plural difference noted above. The original dry masters are retained.
Naturalness and how monstrous they feel are listening judgements. This session cannot directly audition sound, so no listening acceptance is claimed.
Generated locally with original voice descriptions. No real-person voice reference, external monster recording, pitch-shifting, added music or game changes.
