“Actually, I don’t really know what kind of person he is. If he is good or bad, if he has a family…normally I would carefully consider a character’s backstory before recording, but for Crowley I try not to think about it.
I want listeners to decide for themselves what kind of person he is. So when I perform, I don’t try to make him seem villainous, I just focus on keeping him positive. As a result I think he ends up giving a slightly eerie impression (laughs).
But even I, watching the finished animation, discovered things about him: he’s a little suspicious, kind, but cold, yet human…this was a very valuable experience for me. I put my soul into the long monologue at the beginning of episode 1, so I hope people listen to it repeatedly. Regulating my breathing for such long lines was tough, now, performing him in animation five years after the game’s release, but I love long monologues.
