Who voices General Ketheric Thorm?
General Ketheric Thorm is voiced by J.K Simmons, who among many, many other roles you may know for playing J Jonah Jameson in seemingly every universe that also features a Spider-Man. He's also currently voicing Omni-Man in Amazon Studio's Invincible adaptation.
Who voices Minsc?
Minsc is voiced by tabletop veteran Matthew Mercer, who's also a veteran of video game voice acting. You probably know Mercer as the Dungeon Master of the streaming show Critical Role in which voice actors play Dungeons & Dragons, but Overwatch fans will also know him as the voice actor of Cassidy in Overwatch.
Who voices Lord Enver Gortash?
Lord Enver Gortash is played by acting royalty Jason Isaacs. Isaacs is known for playing Lucius Malfoy in the Harry Potter film series, Adrimal Zhao in Avatar: The Last Airbender, The Grand Inquisitor in Star Wars Rebels, Captain Gabriel Lorca in Star Trek: Discovery, Mephisto in Marvel's Midnight Suns, and many, many other roles.
Who voices Orin the Red?
Orin the Red is a shapeshifter who loves killing people and is going to be the source of many players "I can fix her" moments. She's played by Maggie Robertson, who you might know as playing the tallest woman in a video game, Lady Dimitrescu. It's currently unclear whether she'll have the same effect on players as that character, though.
Does your character speak?
Your character doesn't speak outside of various grunts and noises that they make in battle. You choose what your character says, and each choice leads to different choices that branch off, so voice acting something like this would be an incredible undertaking. Due to this, Larian Studios decided to make it so that your character is mute, and does not talk at all.
