Darin De Paul is a voice actor from New York, mostly known for his work in video games. After a handful of roles in games such as ''VideoGame/SkyLanders'' and ''VideoGame/HearthstoneHeroesOfWarcraft'', he got quite a bit of attention for his memorable performances as [[BigBad Emperor Valkorion]] in ''VideoGame/StarWarsTheOldRepublic'' and [[WellIntentionedExtremist Samuel Hayden]] in ''VideoGame/Doom2016''. However, it was his role as [[BoisterousBruiser Rei]][[LargeHam nha]][[KnightInShiningArmor rdt]] in ''VideoGame/{{Overwatch}}'' that truly [[StarMakingRole shot him to fame]] and made him a household name for videogame fans. And despite his name, he's never [[TheOtherDarrin darrined]] anyone. Well, he ''was'' the third voice of Anub'arak.

He is mostly known for playing men with [[BadassBaritone deep voices]] - sometimes smooth, sometimes [[GutturalGrowler growling]], or perhaps even [[EvilSoundsDeep evil]], if you can believe it.
