He actually also voices the Baldur's Gate character Kivan who was modded into my personal favourite BG2 romance mod, if not my favourite gaming romance so far. Kivan of Shilmestria - you'd probably hate it, whiny elves, Greyelvish and angst. But I like it because it was written with the idea in mind that the PC knows she loves the character and him being oblivious to her interest, because he's not really living for anything except revenge. Nice change from the female PC being well, pretty passive (hairless wookieeing doesn't count, naturally), except to play mommy.
It actually spans right across the entire series: With companionship and the beginnings of trust in the first Baldur's Gate, a more intimate friendship and the possibility of choosing to resurrect his dead wife instead of being with him in the second game (which is a very hard choice if you get attached to him), and finally a romantic relationship in the Throne of Bhaal. Most game romances feel rushed (the "canon" romances in Baldur's gate were written in a week, apparently), because of time constraints, as well as the sort of instant gratification aspects that destroy natural character development.
It was nice to see something that developed slowly because it's more realistic than fighting a few battles and falling into bed together (though that can be fun too), but this made the PC work to get her man, because its completely scripted differently than a 1 hour lovetalk timer.
Anyway, he's got a completely different feel to his voice than Anomen. He's more like an emo Aragon, but you don't want to smack him in the head every time he talks about his daddy issues.
