Blackadder Quest/ Companion

Thank you. I'm glad you liked it.

 

L33, you are from the UK, aren't you? Did the accent, for Blackadder particularly, not seem too put on?

 

Do you think about halfway between for Baldrick, the soft and gruff version, then?

 

And, for Darling it was really only for a second, but did it work? I'm afraid that was purely from memory.

 

I can't remember if you wanted Melchett, Kieran, but I was thinking maybe for the judge?

 

I could use a few quotes for George, sadly the video streaming isn't working for me right now.

Darling was spot-on, my man. Just perfect. Baldrick also, although this one sounds gruffer, it sounds just like what the Baldrick I made would sound like. As for Melchett... we just have to work him into the story now!

 

Blackadder was also good, but he good use a bitmore polish, and a bit more Brit-ness.

 

But still... wow!

Yeah, the subtle parts with Blackadder are a little harder, that's

why I did so many conversations, hoping I would stumble across

the right mix.

 

I'm going to try for George when I can find a suitable conversation.

I did a brief bit with him, but I'm not pleased with it.

 

Glad you like it. I was rather proud of Melchett's voice.

Could some other fans on the forum here suggest some quotes that I might try out?

 

I don't have a great deal of access to the source material, and the quote lists I've

found on the internet are somewhat scant. The more tests I do the better I can get

at nailing the voices down.

 

Particularly ones for George, Darling, and Melchett?

Sure.

 

Gorge: Shall we ask her if she's willing to accept a consignment of German sausage?

 

George: Sausage time!

 

George: No point, really. As soon as I get to the naughty hellfire club, I'll be de-pansted and radished for non-payment of debts!

 

Any of the quotes from the first quest script I'm uploading.

 

EDIT: Some voice acting f my own.

Also, a few miscellaneous quest ideas, for after to receive your inheritance.

 

Silinece the Balledeer: A wandering minstrel has started to sing rude tunes regarding you and your ancestors. You can either kill him, bribe him or seduce him to silence (or ask Baldrick to do it), in the latter case he'll walk around under your window singing love songs to you or Baldrick. EDIT: My recording software doesn;t suck too painfully, I'll give the Balladeer a go.

 

Witchsmeller Pursuivant: Yep, you've been accused of witchcraft by the Anvil clergy, and it's up to you to clear your name by hook or (preferably) crook, probably by blaming it on the local Priests.

 

Mining Fiasco: Much of your families wealth come from the Blackadder Glass Mines, but the wrokers have been grumbling. Is this the result of a plot by the East Empire Company?

 

Anyway, here's the script:

 

As soon as you slip off to sleep, you are rudely woken by a chubby messenger.

Messenger: My Lord/ Lady.

You: What?

Messenger: A message, My Lord/ Lady.

You: A message?

Messenger: A papery thing with writing.

You: You have a message?

Messenger: Yes, My Lord/ Lady

You: What is the message?

Messenger: This, My Lady. (Gives message)

You: Are you a moron?

Messenger: Yes, My Lady. Good day, My Lady.

 

Journal:

A fat, fatuous git just gave me a message. I should probably resist the overwhelming temptation to chuck it on the fire.

 

The Message:

 

To the Unknown Blackadder Heir,

Well, for starters, you ARE the Blackadder Heir! Congratulations and all that, I’m sure you must be just so thrilled you could burst, although do try to avoid that, eh?

But, oh dash it all! You might not know who the Blackadder ARE, might you? Well, you see, they’re a noble family, and the currently live in Anvil. Well, I say live, but maybe that’s not true, since you’re the last and I don’t think you’ve settled down anywhere. Have you?

Doesn’t matter. They lived in Anvil, and are buried in Anvil, in a fabulously decorated crypt.

Anyway, your mum just died. Sorry to put it bluntly, but there you go. Morganna Blackadder, lovely lady, not a brain in her head, really, but I suppose that’s why old Flavius loved her.

 

Anyway, it’d be just smashing if you came over to the old IC to discuss the inheritance. There’s a nice Chorrol-style mansion in Anvil, with all sorts of nice goodies, a servant, and flipping great wodges of cash. Just hop on over to Pontificus, Smedley and Lorington, Layers for the Obscenely Rich, and we’ll talk about it.

Yours sincerely,

George Furturious Mercurious Felonius Appolonius Melanus.

 

Journal Entry: Well, now! This is a turnout for the books. Not only do I have a family, but the bloody sods were kind enough to shuffle themselves off this mortal coil so I could get their house and cash! I will have to deal with this ponce George, but it’s a small price!

 

When you enter the Lawyers Office:

George: Ah, the infamous heir!

You: The Lawyer:

Gerge: Well, yes, I am.

You: Inheritance:

George: Rather an abrupt sort, aren’t you? Well, whatever. Yes, inheritance. Dashed exciting, isn’t? You’ve got you mansion, your servant, and your cash. Typical stuff, really, no unusual codicils and such. Few unusual codpieces, though.

You: WHAT?!?

George: Oh, sorry. I meant, the male Blackadders seemed to have this unusual fascination with them. One had a whole display cabinet full of ‘em.

You: Mansion.

George: Yes, big thing in Anvil. Right next to the Church, not that the Blackadders ever go. Guess they’re allergic, or something.

You: Cash:

George: Gobs of it. Wodges. Oik-loads. Just general lots. Only thing is, no one knows where it’s kept. I here old Flavius trusted it to his wife, gods know why.

You: My mother?

George: Ah, sweet woman. Empty head, but sweet. I here she had an interest in Alchemy, though, which surprised me. I would have thought she’d had poisoned herself by accident. Well, still, lovely woman.

You: My Father?

George: Flavius Blackadder. Decent sort, as Blackadders go. Gave to charity, trusted his wifey, that sort of thing. Apparently drank some bad mead, and screamed himself to death. Ghastly thing.

You: Servant?

George: Ah, yes, good old Balders. Not the brightest spark on the fire, but a decent chap. Has an unfortunate tendency to think himself cunning, when he’s really as dull as a three-hundred year old breadknife.

As soon as you’ve asked him everything, three people in white robes with the symbol of Akatosh enter. One speaks to you.

Monk: Halt, sinner!

You: Yeah, George!

Monk: Silence, sinner! I shall lend no ear to your blasphemous lies! You are under arrest!

You: Whose authority?

Monk: The gods!

You a teleported to a Holding Cell.

The Inquisitor voice was perfect, Kieran. I literally laughed out loud. It was an excellent joke too.

 

The others I'm having problems downloading. One of the Flasheart ones says 'File link is invalid.'

 

You should download Audacity though, since they need to be MP3s.

 

Here's the link: Audacity

 

And as I said in the other thread, I took a trip quick to Aetherius, and it's brilliant.

Cool. Downloading Audacity now, and I'll put some more qoutes on Megaupload, since I KNOW that works well.
