Voice actors
This article is dedicated to providing an overview of voice actors who've lent their talents to TDM, and also offer Fan Mission creators the opportunity to contact voice actors who could help them with new voice acting for their FMs.
We've divided the article into:
- 1.) voice actors who've provided their talents to the vocal sets now-official for the base game (please see the Voices article for more info)
- 2.) and volunteer voice actors, who provide voice acting outside of the vocal sets, or provide one-off additions to vocal sets.
Voice actors in the official vocal sets
To hear a sample of a character's voice, click the link in the name of their character archetype.
To access the voice actor's profile or their contact information, click the link in their name.
Each set has a "guard" and "civilian" version, the civilian version is used for unarmed characters.
(Two new vocal sets each were added in versions 1.08 and 2.0. The Voices article might need an update concerning those too, since it currently lacks them, and their voice actors are unclear.)
Please, only update the above table if a new vocal set has been fully added to the base game, otherwise leave it be. However, if there is missing info on specific voice actors, or which version of TDM introduced a specific vocal set, feel free to fill in the remaining gaps.
Vocal scripts info
Vocal Script Master - A template for a new vocal set. The main resource for creating a new vocal set. Up to date, please use this script whenever working on a new vocal set for a new character archetype.
(If you're interested in an older, earlier development version, you can also read this.)
For specific character vocal sets, please see the vocal script links provided in the Notes column. (Be mindful that some of their parts might be outdated, hence the years of publication in brackets.)
Some possibly undeveloped vocal set ideas: General ideas, Tribeswoman (Pagan female) concept, Schemer concept
Volunteer voice actors
These are mostly various other TDM contributors, willing to lend their vocal talents to custom voice acting in FMs. Sometimes, the people who've done the acting for the vocal sets of the official release also contribute to new FMs, but this is more rare.
To access the voice actor's profile or their contact information, click the link in their name.

| Available voice actors at TTLG.com |
External link | Various characters, as the TTLG.com forums have well over a dozen experienced voice actors. | The largest and longest-lived Thief fan community on the Internet has had its individual members doing voice acting for FMs for many years. Several TTLG.com members have contributed to both the official vocal sets and the more mission-specific voice acting in TDM. |
| Voice Acting Club | External link | Various characters, as the forum has hundreds of members. | Recommended by Springheel. A discussion forum with a community of voice actors and their demo reels. (The current version of the VAC forum has been active since 2017.) |
Feel free to gradually expand the list in this table. Especially if the specific voice actors you have in mind visit the forums regularly and FM makers could contact them without a longer wait.
