Angela & Netzach Recast (Lobotomy Corporation: A New Voice)
Ferryn Holland for Angela
Angela
CHARACTER DESCRIPTION: Angela is a highly advanced Artificial Intelligence taking the form of a blue-haired, pale-skinned woman; her eyes are rarely seen open, except for when she is angry. Her roles include the surveillance of the entire facility, giving X (the Player) advice on how to interact with abnormalities and handle breaches, acting as the manager of the Sephirot, and other unspecified tasks. According to her, Angela's skills have caused many people to lose their jobs.
- Angela speaks in a very dry and matter-of-fact way a lot of the time. She seeks to relay the information that she needs to and that is all. Sometimes though, she does get a little smug with her delivery. And though she is a robot, her tone is very much not robotic. In fact, her delivery and pacing should lend itself to sounding closer to something more natural.
- You will also be required to read for Carmen, who is a highly enthusiastic, altruistic, and ambitious person. Do really try to make her kindness and warmth shine through with her voice.
- Angela is the character with the most dialogue lines in-game, so be prepared to do a lot of reading. Her plus Carmen's lines totals at 979 lines. This can not be stressed enough. Do not audition if you are not able to follow through.

(Speaking with a neutral expression, a customer service voice is probably the best way I could describe what I have in mind.) Hello, X. I give you a warm welcome to Lobotomy Corporation. I am Angela, your advisor and secretary. My role as an AI is to assist you in adjusting to your new workplace, so please have no worry in speaking with me or asking any questions.
(Speaking in her normal tone of voice at the start, but her voice starts to sound more and more intimidating until the final sentence, where she lays down not a suggestion, but an order. She should still sound composed throughout.) Did you hear the news Manager? They say a rodent found its way into the appliance room, in one of our facility’s restricted areas. This could become a serious issue. This is one of the reasons why we emphasize security so much. You would do best to remember that. I will personally deal with the rodent this time. But if you happen to find any rodents, manager, please notify me immediately.
(This is a line from Carmen. She’s lying on the grass with her research partner, basking in the warmth of the sun. Try to portray what was already mentioned in the character description for her.) “Can you feel it? The sunlight here is very warm. Sometimes, I dream about photosynthesis, lying down comfortably with my eyes closed. Just soaking it up.”
