Major characters
Dear
Nonbinary, it/its, American, is described as "speaking in italics" (which I have rendered before by pitching up the recording 4% and adding just a touch more reverb, but totally up to you). Snarky, quick-witted, posh. Enunciates clearly and deliberately, as it's based off Michelle/Sasha.
Sarah Genet
Cis woman, French Canadian/First Nations, older, calm, empathetic, very therapist.
True Name
Cis woman, presents different in the three different settings:
- On Castor: calm, confident, competent, professional but friendly, enunciates clearly and deliberately
- On Artemis: exhausted, determined to keep it together, she do she best
- On Lagrange: overworked, frazzled, anxious, maybe a little afraid, but doing her best to remain in control and stay professional — usually, she succeeds
Turun Ka/Turun Ko
Post-biological aliens, voices described as mellifluous, almost musical, calm, inscrutable, enigmatic
Iska
Alien, small, speech is clipped and quick.
Stolon
Alien, nerdy, jittery, was apparently too distracted by being a nerd to learn English all that well
Artante Diria
Cis woman, alien, a lot of the same qualities of Sarah Genet
May Then My Name
Cis woman, personal, romantic, soft, maybe a little cute, everyone falls a little in love with her. Enunciates clearly and deliberately etc. etc.
Answers Will Not Help
Cis woman, presents different in two different settings:
- On Castor: always sounds like she's smirking, kind of an asshole actually, enunciates clearly and deliberately, etc.
- On Artemis: exhausted, terrified, barely able to hold it together
Other characters

Totally up to the VA. Technically, they are the reader, as their character is the player character in a bit of interactive fiction.
