honkai: star rail voicetesting

[pokerap]

Hey all, you know exactly what this is: another voicetesting post! This time it's Honkai: Star Rail-flavored. Listed below are the characters I'd like to voicetest. I have prompts available for them in the comments below!

By default, I will be avoiding spoilers since it's pretty easy with most of these characters. If you want to get into backstory stuff, there likely will be spoilers, so please be aware of that. If you'd like to do spoilery threads, just let me know, and I'll mark spoilers appropriately in my comment headers.

The prompts I have are all murdergame themed, of course. Listen, murdergame settings just work really well for voicetesting for me, don't ask questions!! I am perfectly fine with other settings if none of these prompts speak to you or you'd like to do something different! I love crosscanon threads, OCs, and assumed CR so feel free to throw whatever at me!

INFORMATION:

i don't know what you expected tbh

BOOTHILLA Galaxy Ranger devoted to upholding his own brand of justice. Boothill is a cyborg with the vast majority of his body replaced; something he pretty much always manages to avoid talking about. One thing he can't avoid is his built-in swear filter that forces him to use nicer language. Well, if you call things like "muddle-fudgers" and "well fork me" nicer language. Though he is generally more chaotic good, he's perfectly fine killing anyone who stands in the way of his revenge - look out, IPC.

SAMPO KOSKIAn exceptionally shady salesman who just can't seem to keep himself out of trouble for more than five minutes, Sampo is an absolute disaster of a person. He can and will sell anything he can get his hands on, with little care for any sort of respectable business practices. If it seems like he's up to something, it's because he is - Sampo's a man with a plan, but what that plan actually is will always be a bit difficult to pin down. Just like Sampo himself! He has a tendency to go missing just when you think you actually need his help... but he won't hesitate to ask for yours!

AVENTURINEWhile he is a member of the IPC, Aventurine does things his own way. A born gambler, he greatly enjoys making bets and seeing how things turn out - and his luck has gotten him this far, so surely it won't run out any time soon. Though he may treat everyone as a friend, you'd better look out; you never know what Aventurine is truly thinking behind that smile, after all. He deeply desires his freedom and despite all the glitz and glam of his current profession... he still doesn't have it. Maybe someday things will change.

[ Though they arrived together thanks to having been together on the way to Penacony, Dan Heng quickly left Boothill to his own devices. It seemed pragmatic to split up and look around. There aren't really any answers to be found so far.

Dan Heng had checked out the library first of all, but most of the books are bland fiction or written in a dialect he's never seen — which is strange to him in and of itself. Suffice it to say, there wasn't anything to be learned there, either. It's actually only chance that they run into each other again.

He's not really big on games like this, though he idly thinks that Caelus might enjoy some of them. But there's one Galaxy Ranger cyborg tearing it up at a machine. Dan Heng finds himself stopping to watch. ]

Oh, no. I think you're doing well enough on your own. By all means, continue.

[swearfilter]

[He's doing a great job at exploring, shut up.]

Where's your fightin' spirit? C'mon, join me! Promise I won't kick your ads too badly.

[He will gladly continue to play DDR if left to his own devices, but now he's curious how Dan Heng would do with this little game. Admittedly, this isn't exactly productive, but he's had no luck finding anything useful so why not take a break and enjoy some dumb game?]

[longexile]

My fighting spirit —

[ He says with a sigh, not even wanting to repeat the phrase. ]

— has nothing to do with playing games.

[ It isn't productive, but that's not his beef with it. His problem is how public this is. He seems a lot more unflappable than he is, and the idea of doing some silly dancing game and being terrible at it where other people can see is just too much to deal with.

Despite his argument, he hasn't walked away, either. He should! He should just turn and walk out of this arcade. But... ]

You shouldn't assume you'll win, though.

[ Maybe he has been spending too much time with both Caelus and March. ]

[swearfilter]

[Heh heh, just as planned! ☆]

Yeah? So you gonna prove me wrong?

[He gestures to the machine with a smirk. C'mon, Dan Heng, you know you want to...]

[longexile]

[ Damn you, cyborg.

Of course Dan Heng knows better than to rise to bait like this. He hesitates, telling himself to just walk away and go do anything else.

In the end, maybe it's just pride that wins out, the annoyance at the assumption that he would lose grating on him. Anyway, it's not like he's found anything useful to do here. ]

One game.

[ He's insistent about that part, at least for the time being. ]

You first, since you're already here.

[ He wasn't really watching closely last time. He wants to see how it's done; this is a strategic move on his part. ]

[swearfilter]

[Perfect. Boothill grins at that, all sharp teeth and delight that looks far too much like mania with his features.]

Sure, I'll give ya a leg up so I don't crush ya too badly.

[Wow!! Anyway, he selects a song at random - something fast-paced and busy with arrows from the looks of the preview - and gets started. Boothill is a quick learner and this sort of thing is easy for someone with his reflexes. If you can dodge a bullet, you can play DDR.

He reaches the end of the song with a decently high rank; still room for improvement, but a good showing none the less.]

You wanna pick the song out for us?

[This is a two player DDR set so there's a second pad of arrows for Dan Heng now that he's seen how it's played!]
