Whatever you do, don't use old-and-busted words like

"mature"
"smooth"

Meh.

You want
"Titanium"
"Avuncular"
"Stropped"

Stuff like that.

I've always liked the word "lugubrious" but it wouldn't be a strong sell for my voice... Sticking out Tongue

I was just watching "Piglet's Big Adventure" or something along those lines with my daughter the other night... the guy that does him does a GREAT job.

You know, they didn't say what kind of adjectives. Give them something unique:
