You noticed us! I'm happy now.

What do you think of our Theme Song idea?

I've been meaning to have someone do a theme song for my comic for some time now, and I actually managed to get some of it worked out. It started with the first ten notes of the original Captain N song, played on a keyboard (or some other instrument), fading weakly on the tenth note, changing to a set of dark, minor chords for about 20 seconds. Then in the background, a heavy, kicking beat would come up. The song even had some lyrics to it, but damned if either my friend or I can remember any of it.

Stealing from other video game songs would probably be a good idea as well though, since that's kinda what the comic is. The song needs a backbone though, something for Alex. A heavy, slightly overdone techno with a lot of beat and a lot of heart is what I imagine for his section. But I have no real skill at music anymore.

I'll look.

Next Questions:

1. Did you listen to the Cecil voices on I belive page five?

2. What do you think Ryan would sound like?

If you need a female vocalist I have a lot of experience in choirs and solos. I also write some lyrics.

2. What do you think Ryan would sound like?

1). My friend and I listened to the lines. Cecil should have a deep, commanding adult voice. You're going to want to take it down as low as you can and still have it sound realistic. He needs a tone of seriousness to it even when he's delivering funny lines. It's not bad, I think, just needs to be lower (if the voice actor can manage it)

2) Ryan's voice should be played through a voice filter. I'll have my friend (who wants to do Alex) do Ryan as well, if you like. He'll do it at the local college radio station, and use voice filters.

Hope that helps.

Yes, it does help, thank you.

Now that you have someone to do Ryan, I gotta find someone else for me to do.

My reason for choosing Ryan was the lack of a lot of cussing. I don't cuss, and people respect me for that, but it's ok, we have plenty of characters.

Looks like I'm out. I really can't do a low voice; my natural voice is too high. Sorry :/

I might try Cecil then, but no promises that I'll do any better.

Well, I would point out that I'm not the boss of you guys. I'm just trying to be helpful. And just because me and my friend thought that, don't make us right.

Might also want to take a look at other roles too. I'll listen to your voice agian, and make suggestions.

I'm sorry. I didn't realize you made one. Could you repeat it, just so I'm clear?

Edit: Do keep in mind that this isn't MY project, and I neither have nor want ultimate say in these matters.

I know that you aren't the boss of us, but as the comic author, you get a say in this.

Also, you're right. In the skit that me and friends were planning a few years back, Cecil was kind of a whiny paladin -- "It's pronounced seh-sil, not see-sil!" kind of thing. That image stuck. But in the CSNES iteration he's not like that at all. My voice really doesn't fit. I could try and force it, but it would sound, well, forced.

There's a reason I'm going to be Cait Sith in FF7:Second Story. :D

Gotcha, I just misunderstood who that was directed at.

A need like that will depend on whether someone can be found to make a theme song. It's something I will definately mention to whoever ends up doing it. But once again, I'm an idea guy, and I very much want to avoid getting involved in something that I will alter flake out on.
