Some obvious stuff on The Cutting Room Floor; https://tcrf.net/Neverwinter_Nights_(Windows)#Hordes_of_the_Underdark
Bioware were a bit better at cleaning up unused files for HotU so a lot less here than SoU.
One thing we should do is tidy up the toolset names so there is easier reuse of some of these. Some are plot specific, sure, like Aribeth or Mephistopeles, and recognisable, but others like Sobrey are very generic and don't shout their own name or anything too specific.
This does not include just player-only soundsets with no additional lines:
| Name | soundset.2da Label | Type | SSF Filename | Usage / Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Male, Typical Fighter | The_Typical_Fighter | Player | vs_fx2fighm | A rare XP2 player voiceset with a voiced line - vs_fx2fighm_50.wav "I...I can't move" - may be from the opening cutscenes of HotU need to double check |
| Female, Healer | The_Healer | Player | vs_fx2healf | A rare XP2 player voiceset with a voiced line - vs_fx2healf_50.wav "What foul magic is this" - may be from the opening cutscenes of HotU need to double check |
| Tamsil | The_Maiden | Player | vs_fx2maidf | Tamsil, daughter of the Waterdeep Innkeeper. Has voiced lines 51 through 63. Need to check if any are unused but probably not. |
| Agarli | Agarly | Partial | vs_nx2agarf | Argarli Chapter 1, storekeeper. Has voiced lines 50 through 53 all used. |
| Arden Swift | Arden_Swift | Partial | vs_nx2ardem | Arden Swift, Chapter 3. Has voiced lines 50 through 56 all used. |
| Aribeth | Aribeth_XP2_BLACKGUARD | Full | vs_nx2arief | Chapter 3 Aribeth but evil. Voiced lines 50 through 86. |
| Aribeth | Aribeth_XP2_PALADIN | Full | vs_nx2arigf | Chapter 3 Aribeth but good. Voiced lines 50 through 86. Interestingly 86 appears in chapter 2 in q3vil_cut_armand.dlg as a random human slave (still with the ghostly effect mind you!). |
| Armand | Armand | Partial | vs_nx2armam | Chapter 2 cult leader Armand. Voiced lines 50 through 66. |
| Sharori | Avariel_Female | Partial | vs_nx2avarf | Chapter 2 Sharori, a female Avariel. Voiced lines 50 through 57. |
| The Fool | Avariel_Male | Partial | vs_nx2avarm | Chapter 2 The Fool, a male Avariel. Voiced lines 50 through 58. |
| Berger | Berger | Partial | vs_nx2bergm | Chapter 1 Berger. Has voiced lines 50 - 52, but 52 appears unused (and is the long "Aahhhhgggg!"). Very generic, if dumb, Orc so could be named better for the toolset. |
| Matron Myrune | Drow_Matron2 | Partial | vs_nx2betyf | Chapter 2 Matron Myrune, Female, Drow. Has voiced lines 50 through 60. 55 is identical to 57 it seems (and 55 is unused). Otherwise voiceset is nice and generic. |
| Cavallas of the Dark River | Boatman | Partial | vs_nx2boatm | Chapter 2 Cavallas. Voicelines 50 to 58. 53 and 54 don't seem to be used, although they do have TLK lines (85910 and 85911). |
| Daelan Red Tiger | Daelan_XP2 | Full | vs_nx2daelm | Chapter 1 Daelan is a henchman. Has voiced lines 50 through 107, lots of interactions with the environment, which is quite awesome. I doubt anything is unused. |
| Deekin Scalesinger | Deekin_XP2 | Full | vs_nx2deekm | Chapter 1, 2 and 3. Voicelines 50 to 162, probably the highest count of any NPC in NWN. |
| Deva | Deva | Partial | vs_nx2divaf | Chapter 2 Deva. Has voiced lines 50 to 56. Interestingly 54 has a TLK line but doesn't seem to be included in the dialogue file or noted in the TLK for the line. |
| Drow, Wizard | Drow_Wizard | Partial | vs_nx2drmgm | Chapter 1 and 2 I think. Voiced lines 50 through 64. The Drow Wizard under the Valsharess. I don't think they even get a name! |
| Drow, Matron | Drow_Matron | Partial | vs_nx2drprf | Chapter 1. Oddly the TLK references 2 wav files that don't exist, 56 and 57 but the actual TLK entries don't relate to her. |
| Drow, Rebel | Drow_Rebel | Partial | vs_nx2drslm | Chapter 2. 50-53 lines for cutscenes. |
| Duergar, Chief | Duergar_Chief | Partial | vs_nx2duerf | Chapter 2. Lines 50 - 55. |

| The Fairy Queen | The_Fairy_Queen | Partial | vs_nx2fairf | Chapter 1. Lines 50 - 53, looks all used. |
| The GateKeeper | The_GateKeeper | Partial | vs_nx2gatem | Chapter 3. Lines 50 - 54. They have TLK references but not in the dialogue files (unless they're called in the main game files). |
| The Genie | The_Genie | Partial | vs_nx2genim | Lines 50 - 57. TLK lines but not in a dialogue file so probably again, somewhere in the main game files. |
| Grovel | Grovel | Partial | vs_nx2goblm | Chapter 1. Lines 50 to 59. Lines 50 - 52 are in the dialogue file, the others do have TLK lines might be ambient stuff. |

| Ferron | Golem_Good (or Golem, Metal) | Partial | vs_nx2golgm | Chapter 2, Ferron, a Half-Orc Golem. Lines 50 - 60. |
| Gru'ul the Quarry Boss | Quarry_Boss | Partial | vs_nx2grulm | Chapter 3, Devil Gru'ul the Quarry Boss. Lines 50 - 54. Pike off indeed! Interestingly there is a vs_nx2grulm_55 ("You useless sack of lemure-flesh, why do you insist on coming back? Haven't I suffered enough?") referenced in his main conversation/the TLK file but it doesn't exist alas. |
| Halaster Blackcloak | Halaster | Partial | vs_nx2halam | Chapter 1, Halaster the Mad Mage. Lines 50 - 59. |

| Mephisopheles | Mephisopheles | Partial | vs_nx2mephm | Chapter 1, 2 and 3. Ultimate BBEG Mephisopheles himself. MEPHISTOPHELES. HE'S BIG, HE'S BAD, THE GIRLS ALL THINK HE'S DREAMY... He's got 100% cut lines like some of the end battle dialogue options. A rare chance to reimplement something. Voiced lines 50 - 107. |
| Mhaere | Mhaere | Partial | vs_nx2mhaef | Chapter 1, Mhaere, Durnan's wife. Voiced lines 50 - 58 and - kind of annoyingly - named Durnan in her voiceset so it can't be an easy reusable voiceset. |
| Knower of Names | Knower_of_Names_ | Partial | vs_nx2namef | Chapter 3. Knower of Names. Voiced lines 50 - 59. |
| Nathyrraa | Nathyrraa | Full | vs_nx2nathf | Chapter 1, 2, 3. Nathyrraa, Drow, Female. Has additional voiced lines. Alas vs_nx2nathf_117 isn't in the game files (which would have been "DEATH SCREAM AS HER SOUL IS RIPPED APART"). Other liens are 50 - 163 (not complete, minus some missing ones). |

| Sleeping Man | Sleeping_Man | Partial | vs_nx2sleem | Chapter 3, Sleeping Man. Could be your love interest by random chance. Voiced lines 50 - 54. |
| Sobrey | Sobrey | Partial | vs_nx2sobrm | Chapter 1, Sobrey, a Human Wizard Shopkeeper in Waterdeep. Has lines 50 - 54 all used. |

| White Thesta | White_Thesta | Partial | vs_nx2whitf | Chapter 1, White Thresta helps at Durnan's inn. Lines 50 to 57. I don't understand why essentially a cleric/store gets so many lines, but I guess Sexy Sells hah. Line 56 sound is not included in her dialogue, but is a TLK line 83918 is valid although doesn't include all the content - probably cut for content.
