Aslan sound like ...

[Hemdian]

I'm not that great at doing "funny" voices, but as a Referee, I do *try* to make various NPCs sound different from one another. For example, for a Vargr, I might do a deep, growly, snarling voice. But I have a session coming up that will feature a female Aslan lawyer (high SOC, living in Imperial space), and I was wondering what that might sound like. Even after all these years, I've not done Aslan before. Any ideas or suggestions?

Jeri Ryan as 7 of 9 in ST: Voyager would probably make for a decent starting point if you're looking for an inspiration.
That self-assured "I know I'm good at what I do" attitude which made no apologies meant that you HAD TO take 7 seriously, rather than just assuming she was pretty (and therefore, a brainless bit of fluff and eye candy).

Jeri Ryan did an EXCELLENT job of portraying the "fish out of water" issue of being culturally NOT HUMAN while living among humans ... which would seem to be directly relevant to your query. This would probably be the best inspiration for giving "voice" to this NPC.

Perhaps the most important thing is to try and NOT "lean in too hard" on the I'm Aslan angle. Let that factor sort of blend into the background, becoming almost (but not quite) completely irrelevant. Let the fact that the lawyer is a female Aslan be ... incidental ... more of a character grace note, rather than being something that central and defining.
