About this mod

Spellcasting is now associated with voiced incantations, from Pillars of Eternity 2:Deadfire.

It hopes to improve on the immersion of being a mage, by realizing the idea, that they are likely to chant during their spellcasting.

The voices are all the intellectual property of Obsidian Entertainment...except my own voice.

Magic spellcasting has always been somewhat lacklustre for me. The lack of a grimoire or a spellcasting focus somewhat felt odd to me. Also, from many works of high fantasy fiction, mages are often shown to be chanting or using incantations during their spellcasting. 

Hence in order to bring the fantasy of a true mage to life, I have created this port of Pillars of Eternity 2: Deadfire's Spellcasting Voicesets. 
They are all the Intellectual Property of Obsidian Entertainment, no copyright infringement is intended. 

All vanilla spells, Apocalypse Spells, Arcanum Spells, Triumvirate Spells, and Odin Spells are supported as of 6/22/2021.

The scripts are fairly straightforward, and I've tried to comment in them as much as possible. If you would like to add your own spells to the compatible list, then that can be done quite easily.




^ This video is a SMALL PREVIEW of the incantations. This is the 'attack spell' variant. There is also a 'burst variant' and 'whisper variant' for each voice, depending on the spell that you cast. Test it out in game yourselves.

CHANGE VOICES AND OTHER SETTINGS IN THE MCM MENU- you can CHANGE VOLUME there. (Ignore spell frequency, incantations have a hidden cooldown of 10 seconds, that cannot be altered, unless someone is willing to make a patch that allows for it)

The voice types for the incantations include:

Female Mystic
Female Smooth
Female Stoic
Female Fiesty
Female Cocky
Female Kind
Female Sinister
Female Noble

Female Xoti (POE2 character voiced by Laura Bailey)
Female Vexahlia (Vox Machina's ranger voiced by Laura Bailey)

Male Grog   (Vox Machina's barbarian voiced by Travis Willingham)
Male Scanlan      (Vox Machina's bard voiced by Sam Riegel)
Male Percival De Rolo        (Vox Machina's fighter voiced by Taleisin Jaffe)
Male Shaun Gilmore          (Vox Machina's chief sponsor voiced by Matt Mercer)
Male Vaxildan     (Vox Machina's rogue voiced by Liam O Brien)
Male mindParalysis           (me...the mod author... I'd suggest you don't use this one..)


The incantations have a default 'cooldown' period of 10 seconds, where the player will not chant(as it can get annoying), but this can be changed in the MCM. By default incantations are disabled in sneak mode. You can enable in sneak mode, but in line with immersion principles, the chants will be MUCH quieter.

Requirements:

SKSE64 Latest version - this is a must. The scripts written rely on SKSE heavily.

SKYUI - MCM Menu is required to change the voices, and other settings.
