Crown Description:
The description of Basso Profundo currently describes characters with exceptionally low voices with no discussion of narrative meaning. The on-page examples list a mix of fictional characters and real actors/musicians with very deep voices, with no significance given for most entries. It overlaps with the tropes listed under the now disambiguated Badass Baritone for "cool"/"manly" characters with deep voices and Evil Sounds Deep for evil characters with deep voices. What should be done with Basso Profundo?If Basso Profundo is moved to Media Notes (either as a standalone page or by being merged with Voice Types), sandbox examples that involve a character using a very deep voice as a gag (such as to to exaggerate how angry, mean, loud, or forceful they are at the moment, or simply because it sounds funny) to salvage for a new trope page. If there are enough examples for the trope to be thriving (per Wick), the sandbox can be moved to Main/ right away; otherwise, it will be sent to TLP or the Trope Idea Salvage Yard.
Merge with Voice Types (which will be moved from Useful Notes to Media Notes even if Basso Profundo's page remains separate)
