A lot of mods that added quests to Morrowind would add additional dialog options to existing NPCs in the game, providing hooks into the new content.

It just struck me: with every line of dialog voiced by voice-actors, we're going to find it hard to put any additional works into existing NPCs' mouths. It'll be a bit jarring if your extra dialog is not voiced, but not as jarring as it'll be when the NPC's voice changes when they say your lines...

Is there any software out there that allows you to readily synthesise new speech for a given voice, if you can feed it enough samples of the voice you want mimiced?
