About this sound

✦ AI

Sir Roderick shouting Charge from the French animated series Gawayn, a short knight battle cry used for rushing in, starting a game or charging a joke.

This is Sir Roderick's rallying shout of Charge from Gawayn, delivered in a bold, theatrical knight's voice over just under two seconds. The word lands loud and eager, like a cartoon commander leading a tiny, hopeless quest into battle. There is no buildup, just instant confidence and comic urgency. Played on its own it turns an ordinary moment into a mock heroic charge, making even walking to the kitchen or opening a game lobby feel like the start of a grand adventure.

Gawayn is a French animated comedy adventure series built around quests, knights and magical mishaps, and Sir Roderick is one of its heroic knight characters. His Charge shout sums up the show's joke in a single word, brave on the surface and ridiculous in context. Clipped from the series, the line circulated on soundboards as a quick reaction sound for gamers and editors who need instant momentum. It survives because it is short, clearly understood without any setup, and funny wherever the charge itself is completely unnecessary.

Pro Tip for Usage

✦ AI

Drop the shout right on the cut where your character starts running, with no music underneath so the voice stays front and centre. Let a half second of silence follow it, then smash cut to the anticlimactic action for the punchline.

Use Cases

✦ AI
  • Play before friends rush into a multiplayer match together.
  • Add when a pet suddenly sprints across the room.
  • Use to start a silly race or challenge video.
  • Drop before charging into battle in a roleplay edit.
