New Zyra Voice Lines (my Demo)
Alright! This is my long awaited Zyra Voice over!
I have been working on new version of her voice, one that touches on the curiosity Zyra has developed. Her voice is alluring, but with a predatory edge. I love the original voice Zyra has and was inspired to take it a bit of a different direction. (I took some inspiration from Sapadal’s voice from the game Avowed.) I strayed away from doing too much of an angry or seductive voice, wanting it to feel inquisitive, otherworldly, almost comforting and certain of her success. I am still practicing and adapting the voice but I thought I might as well post what I’m working with!
I personally have been drawn to Zyra since her release, I remember going on Tv Tropes looking for other characters with plant based magic, and behold! Zyra! She captured the very thing I was looking for, not just a plant mage. But a vessel-like being of carnivorous thorns. I started playing league just for her, and stuck with it! There’s so much about this character that I adore. But that’s another rant!
I want to thank u/Ir_Abelas for writing a post 5 years ago that has since inspired me! And with their help we came up with a bunch of new lines to add more character to the beloved blossom that is Zyra :) Our lines flesh out the connection to her plants (lots of “us” and “we” in place of “I”) while still keeping mystery. Lots of references to her bio and story “With the Flowers.” We added some fun champion interactions as well. Also my favorite addition is the aspects of hivemind, “I can feel Everything” and “we hear so much, too much.” Zyra’s original lines are far too iconic to discard so I included them at the end!
