When i first found out that i was dragonkin, i was a little confused on vocals. I didn’t know what sounds dragons made or how to make those sounds. So, i’ve made a list of sounds and how to do them, i hope this helps :) Lmk if i missed any sounds!
Growl - this is a low, deep sound that should come from the back of your throat. Try making an ‘r’ sound! You can look at videos of other animals (like big cats) growling to get an idea of the noise!
Hiss - This is similar to how a cat hisses! When a dragon does it, it’s generally much lower and slower than a cats fast, high-pitched hiss. Try to make a ‘sh’ sound but stress on the ‘s’. Your tongue should be on the top of your mouth, with the sound coming from either side.
Roar - This can be a little tricky, it’s not just shouting! It’s a bit similar to the growl. It should be low and deep, with a bit of ‘rumble’ to it. Try saying ‘roar’ but less definitively. You shouldn’t be ‘saying’ it, but follow the pattern, if that makes sense? Start by growling (your ‘r’ sound), followed by a deep ‘shout’ (the ‘oa’) and then back down to a growl (the ‘r’ again.) This can be noisy so practice when you’re home alone or in a sound proof room so you don’t disturb your family and neighbours too much!
Next is the ‘emotional’ noises. Now, really, a dragon can make a variety of noises other than hiss, growl and roar, so these aren’t set in stone. Feel free to do whatever feels natural! But these are just some basic emotional sounds to give a bit of a guideline.
To show love - Dragons may ‘purr’ like cats, however it will be a bit different. A dragons purring is mostly a growl, but softer and quieter. You can watch videos of cats purring to get an idea!
To show aggression - Dragons will growl and roar loudly when aggressive! They may also hiss.
To show fear - When a dragon is scared they may ‘whimper’, like a hiss but softer, or they may growl to show that they will fight. To make the ‘whimper’ or hiss noise, make a hissing noise then make it quieter and softer. When growling in fear you can add a bit of a stutter.
To alert - Dragons will likely make a high pitched, loud noise like a screech. It may have a bit of panic to it. Think of it like a ‘hree’ or ‘shree’ but loud, like you’re shouting it! To make it, say ‘hree’ or ‘shree’, but like a roar, don’t define the word too much. Make it high pitched!
Keep in mind, you don’t have to do all of these, or any at all! make whatever noises feel natural. For the emotional ones, they can be useful for doing quadrobics or mental shifts! It makes you feel pretty connected and natural, making the same noise as your kintype would to react :)
