Upon seeing the Worst character voice acting thread I agreed with alot of the responses. I also felt that there were good voice overs by some characters though. Here are my top 3:

#1) Tahlkora
#2) Zhed Shadowhoof
#3) Margrid the Sly

Norgu's line "What does that mean?" at the end of Dzagonur Bastion is just great. Have to put him on top.

You win the thread. He sounds so frustrated at this point in time it really is hilarious, especially when the cutscene says on top "7 out of 8 want to skip this cinematic"

I liked Master Togo's voice.

Tahklora
Morgahn (sounds like Morgan Freeman sometimes, and looks like him too).

Our character's voices through the story are good actually, but I would say Tahlkora and Varesh did pretty well. Still, Zehd's single line "two legs" owns all.

Have to say, the new player character voice actors in Nightfall did a great job. I thought that having a different voice in chapter three would have annoyed me a bit, but they ended up being better than the ones in 1 & 2. I hope these ones stay for a long time.

The voice acting in Nightfall really is very good all round.

I too would vote for Zhed as being the best.

His line "I say we should burn him" at the end of Gates of Desolation is chilling.

My favourite cutscene though is still Norgu and Goren.

Goren: "Is this the part where we run?"
Norgu: "I'm running!"

(or something similar)

^ lol. God I hated Shiro's voice.

On the other hand, my best goes to Varesh. Sexy, and evil. I dunno why...

I actually felt a little sorry for Varesh at the point on wich she gets totally taken over by Abaddon. She probably lost her free will long before she came to Istan.

Also, i never noticed anything irritating or especially over the top about Kormir's acting, so i guess it was quite natural.

Definately not Danika zu Heltzer. She was stupid sounding and badly accented what she was saying. I could do better without trying.

All of them are bad except for Morgahn in my view.

1. NF Male lead character
2. Margrid
3. Zhed/Goren (same voice actor anyways)

All around the voice acting was decent, although Tahlkora had a bit of a Danika moment in Lahtenda Bog ("Ugh! Lyssa protect me!" in a loonytune kind of voice), and Kormir sounded like she couldn't care what was happening for the most part.

In Prophecies the best was the male character, also possibly the best of all the campaigns. Steve Blum is god when it comes to voice acting.

I like Zhed. Especially after you befriend him, he is still kind of a rebel.

You: "Oh, and please don't call me two legs. It's offensive."
Zhed: "Fine... Two legs."

Haha.

Top 3 off the top of my head:
1) Varesh. I thought she had some good lines. ("Running will not not save you fools. Abbadon is strong! Nightfall is coming!")
2) Master of Whispers - (Margid: "What could be more important than money?" Master: "Your soul, child." -or- Master: "It is a demonic manifestation. A part of Abbadon's realm pushing into the living world." Norgu:"WTF?" )
3) Master Togo. But I can't remember any memorable lines for him atm. ><

1. Palawa Joko. It's the railing at his minions that does it for me.
2. Morgahn, post-massacre. His defeated raspy rumble is so perfect.
3. Go go Norgu! Yaay!

Morgahn and Margrid did the best job. Everyone else just kind of grated...
