Rory is a vocal for the DeepVocal engine. He is developed and voiced by CROW.
History[]
RORY was initially intended as a Deepvocal port of the UTAU UV0 (aka Zero), a previously unreleased UTAU voicebank from the voice provider.
He was recorded, configured, and designed the week following December 25th, 2020, and his first voicebanks were released January 8th, 2021.
Months after his V1 release, development for a new voicebank began, starting with the first drafts for his V2 around April of 2021 and ending with the final drafts in October that year. In late October through early November of 2021, his V2 voice library was nearly complete and updates for his appends ("Power" and "Dark") were recorded.
In late November, the voicebank was nearly ready for release and scheduled for December 2021, with the final date being December 12th.
On December 12th, 2021, his V2 release and work began on his appends and a V1.5 (re-configuration of his V1) was planned.
On November 27th, 2022, development started on a 5-pitch V3 update with the voicebank's release scheduled for January of 2023. This voicebank released on February 14th, 2023, with an update patch releasing February 17th, 2023.
On December 29th, 2023, development began on Rory V4, scheduled to release in 2024.
Character[]
Rory's personality is a very smug prince figure who claims to hide a sad past. Whether or not this is true has yet to be debunked.
The character mascot associated with Rory V3 is named Rory Magne. This does not apply to V2 or V1, as Rory's V3 character is completely separate from his V2 and V1 characters.
Etymology[]
"Rory" is a Scottish given name meaning "red king", which refers to his design.
"Magne" [MAG-nə] comes from "Magnus", meaning "great". The author just thought it sounded cool ok
Appearance[]
V3: Rory has bright red hair cut in a bowlcut, with an eyepatch covering one eye and the other eye being a blueish gray. He wears a blue princely outfit with shoulder pads and an optional cape.
Story / Character[]
Rory, full name Rory Magne, is a young king who was betrayed by his former betrothed (who also is the reason he wears an eyepatch.) After being outcast from his kingdom in the stars, he finds himself struggling to find his place among humans on earth.
Fun facts:
- He is fond of mice, and names any pet mouse he has after stars. Currently, he has a golden-haired mouse named Spica.
- In his kingdom, he rode a starry steed named Pegasus. It was not a pegasus.
- Growing up, he was trained in ballet, piano, and fencing. He was occasionally trained for singing, but not as much as the other aspects.
- Rory Magne (V3 -> onwards) and Rory Wythe (V1, V2) are two separate characters with their own lore.
- Rory Magne is indeed evil and slightly self aware as a character / voicebank.
