Dragons Dying Breath

The last breath of a creature, maybe a dragon, whatever floats your boat.

I'm a game developer, but I also like creating sfx, and other cool stuff.
So I was feeling like creating a small MMO for fun, but thought to myself;
How on earth am I going to make all those sounds?
So I searched a bit on the net for possible cool sfx techniques, and later on decided to just experiment with audacity myself.

For this sound I recorded my own voice two times (I can make some weird sounds),
and edited them in Audacity.

The result came out as some kind of dragon, and I was pretty pleased with it being my first organic voice.

Use for whatever you like, a credit and a rate would be appreciated.

@Sgt.Shultz I know you probably won't read this as there is no reply system on freesound.org, but yeah now I know all of that, but thanks for the tip. Back when I made this sound I was just getting into sound design and didn't really know that much about what to pay attention to, when making this I thought it wasnt loud enough so I just amplified it, but I should've just compressed it instead so that it doesn't clip but still sounds louder.
Sorry to everyone who downloads the sound, you should probably normalize it if you think it's too loud :)

Nice effect, but if you do want some advice on how to make cleaner and more crisp effects, I would suggest you do it not as loud when recording, or if you have a mic that plugs in through a box you can turn down the gain, because the mic will clip the sound it is recording because it is too loud and it cannot handle it. Hope this helps!
