Bethesda Softworks announced today that actress Lynda Carter, best known for
her starring role as television’s “Wonder Woman”, has agreed to do voice-overs
for the critically acclaimed role-playing game, The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind™.
Slated to hit stores this Spring for the PC and the Xbox™ video game system from
Microsoft, Morrowind offers players a rich fantasy world to explore and a fully
customizable interactive adventure. Carter has signed on to provide the voices
for the female Nords, one of the races that populate this expansive game.
"We are thrilled to have Lynda Carter join the project," says Todd Howard,
Morrowind's Project Leader who has won numerous awards for his previous work.
"Adding her talent and personality to some of our characters is a huge addition
for Morrowind. And of course, I've been a fan since childhood."
“After working for so many years in the entertainment industry, I was
delighted to do something new and become involved creatively with the
development of this game,” said Carter. “I really enjoyed the experience and
believe Morrowind is something that the gaming public is going to be excited
about.”
Morrowind also features the creative talent of award-winning musician Jeremy
Soule, who will be responsible for composing and producing the music for the
third chapter in the award-winning Elder Scrolls series. Soule, who has been
called Gaming’s Greatest Musician, recently completed the score for the
blockbuster videogame Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone.
The design for Morrowind is being led by Ken Rolston, who won the coveted H.G.
Wells Award for Best Role-Playing Game in 1985 and has created numerous
award-winning games throughout his career. He is generally considered to be one
of the godfathers of role-playing games (RPGs).
