It is with great sadness from all of us at KingsIsle that we pass along the information that Nigel Lambert, voice actor for Headmaster Ambrose, has passed away. 

Wizard101’s voice acting is a pillar of the game: these performances have always been the primary key that transports us to the wondrous world of the Spiral. Headmaster Ambrose may be the most important voice in the game – it is Ambrose who guides players through the tutorial, who helps us find our way through the story, and who always supports us as a friend and mentor. For a game that was such a big part of childhood for so many, it feels like we’ve lost a grandparent.  

Our mundane world may have lost a wonderful soul, but Nigel’s spirit still echoes through the Spiral. Every time you log in to Wizard101 and hear his voice, remember the talented source. As long as we hold on to these memories as one Spiral community, the great Nigel Lambert lives on. 

When we were writing this tribute, several team members wanted to express their condolences directly in some way. Please see below some of those responses about Nigel and his work.
