I am secretly my avatar.

Also, I imagine Aklyon as a pointy-chinned college student with dark anime hair.

[Trapezohedron]

I am secretly my avatar.

Yes you are.

...why am I stating the obvious?

[Aklyon]

Theres certainly worse things I could end up depicted as based on avatar Frumple, I suppose. And also better things, since I'm not a girl.

[Urist Imiknorris]

You are all your avatar. Those without avatars are seen as interchangeable.

[Blargityblarg]

I don't have mental images of anyone, really- even those whose appearance I know, and the same thing happens with voices; I don't have any voice that pops up, I just read words and extract information with my eyes, even for those whose voices I know.

Blargityblarg possesses a Geordie accent, Truean has an unnaturally high pitched tone and Jackrabbit always sounds like s/he's just sucked a bong through.  No idea why for any of them.  Everyone else (who has posted in this thread) sounds the same to me, and I'm generally more aural than visual.

[Truean]

I seem to have inadvertently been the muse for this thread?

Heard Vector's voice on her livestream; seen her.... Kinda.... doesn't work for this then. Miss her.

Aqizzar is Brock Sampson in my mind. Has been in my head for years. It's largely the avatar. Also his no nonsense nature. Don't ask me why he's one of the only people I do voices in my head for. I read so fast I usually don't have time to do it with other things, truthfully.

Otherwise sometimes an accent will slip in, especially for the English and Belgians (a la Capt. Duck's videos), when I'm keeping people's posts separated in my head.

Heard Vector's voice on her livestream; seen her.... Kinda.... doesn't work for this then. Miss her.

Wait, what happened to her now?

[Jackrabbit]

Blargityblarg possesses a Geordie accent, Truean has an unnaturally high pitched tone and Jackrabbit always sounds like s/he's just sucked a bong through.  No idea why for any of them.  Everyone else (who has posted in this thread) sounds the same to me, and I'm generally more aural than visual.

I... clearly don't sound as cultured as I try to pretend I am.
Duuuude.

[Patchouli]

Aqizzar and Jackrabbit are the only ones that have a stand-out voice. I always imagined Aqizzar talking like a newscaster, and Jackrabbit is Max.

I usually see most people as their avatars too, except in cases of real-life celebrities, and a few other exceptions.

Frumple was always a mystery, because I don't know who's in the avatar. It's just an indistinguishable silhouette for me.
Megaman never had an image in my head, dunno why. I guess my head is saying, "He's not really Megaman."
ToonyMan changes frequently also, so I have the tendency to default to a generic 90's shonen hero.
Nenjin's avatar always looked a bit terrible on my computer, so it's just some silhouette.
Ponies are a grey area, Sowelu and whoever has hipster Rarity are the only ones that pop into my head as being the same image in my head.

You are all the sound of broken glass

[Frumple]

Breaking glass is one of the more beautiful sounds the world has to offer.

I can't help but wonder just how much effort it would take to make a breaking glass voice transformer whatsit...

Depending on the type of glass and method of breaking, you can probably get a pretty full tonal spread, or whatever that's called. Collecting the samples would probably be fun, too, if expensive.

Be an interesting project, anyway.

[justinlee999]

I imagine RedKing as that insane chinese guy he formerly had as an avatar.

[Capntastic]

Broken glass, not breaking glass.

[JackoftheBox]

Everyone looks like this to me:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

And everyones voices sound like the one keeping me awake when I try to sleep, exception being the tone of seriousness/silliness depending on posts
