TIL Cephalon Cy is voiced by a trans woman - eviltoast

Her name is Emma Martello and she also voices Master Teasonai and Rell. Fantastic performances on all three. Especially Rell, that quest is great.

    @exocrinous Honestly, who cares she is trans. Gender dosent defines person. That is like saying “Lotus was voiced by straight woman”. Completely irrelevent. Her voice acting is excelent and that is only thing that matters for voice actress in context of voice acting.

      I like that at least one trans person helped make Warframe, because Warframe is a trans allegory and it makes me feel good. Kinda adds layers that the only Tenno NPC we know of is voiced by a trans person.

      Second Dream

      Before my egg cracked, my operator was masculine but I mained a feminine Warframe. Now I know who I am, my operator is feminine, and I still main the same Warframe. That’s a really cool ludonarrative synchronicity. I was trans in Warframe before I even knew I was trans. Hell yeah, that’s just good game design.

      Dream not of what you are, but of what you want to be.

        This game is hella (beautifully) queer, I mean heck, that Whispers in the Walls quest

        Honestly the ludonarrative synchronicity is also strong for me

        Angels of the Zariman

        For one the “ooh this was meant to be so good for you and everyone but oopsie” rings strong for me in our current economic conditions :P

        The inheriting of the problems is resonant as well

        whispers in the walls

        And heck, sweet gay loid, that quest finally got my hooked on the lore because of the gay , /pos

          whispers

          Don’t forget that the Tenno defeated the Man In The Wall (for now) with a loving male-on-male caress.

          I saw someone theorise that the opposite of indifference is sympathy. Tagfer says the murmur seem like they just want to be involved with what’s going on in reality. The Tenno ability to love a monster is the hard counter to whatever the Man In The Wall is planning. Whether the Man In The Wall is the indifference, or the murmur is, or they both are, or neither are, sympathy was the key to stopping Them and it may continue to be. We don’t know what motivates Them, but I think winning this battle for good is gonna take some forgiveness and empathy. And also They’re queer AF. I dunno what it is but They give off that vibe. Kinda reminds me of the Collector from Owl House, who’s a demiboy.

          By the way, there’s a void that works a lot like the void from Warframe in the books Glitch and The Outside. Both books are extremely queer. So much so that the sequel to The Outside is about “how do you run a queer atheist commune full of mentally ill people who have magic powers”. It’s brilliant!

          Second Dream

          The protagonists of both books are basically Tenno
