Is it possible that affecting an exaggerated voice of some kind is just Elf Culture in the world of the adventure zone?  because it seems like it’s not just taako. when the boys meet elves, talking in a natural register is the exception, not the rule.

with lup, it could just be “oh that’s a family trait,” but Magic Brian, Edward, and Lydia all have very similar vocal patterns. And Jenkins, who I almost forgot was also an elf until I relistened, has a different but equally ridiculous voice.

all i’m saying is, maybe taako wasn’t goofing when he said he was glad to hear magic brian “talk normally”
