Good Morning Zakera Ward (Mass Effect Fan Podcast)
barbex for Asar Amore - Love Guru
Who Is Asar Amore?
Asar Amore is the host of the romantic advice segment on GMZW. Just think of a late-night radio love guru host who takes callers and gives out advice.
What will be expected of this role?
This is a character recast of Asar Amore. We are looking for someone who will be able to closely emulate the previous voice actor’s performance. It might help to listen to Asar Amore from previous episodes here:

More about Asar Amore:
Asar Amore’s lived a full life filled with adventures, including a lengthy tenure in the military’s special ops. But now that she’s in the “retirement” phase of her life, she’s a bit… bored. This occasionally compels her to act out, and is also the reason she joined the radio show in the first place: it seemed like a window to new experiences.
Nevertheless, she’s still the most secretive, mature, and rational of her co-hosts, though she has recently learned to loosen up.
--Please only record the lines with 'AA' Or 'Asar Amore' as the character. Please
note that this is a character recast, so we are looking to emulate the
original voice actor as closely as possible. In the description above
will be links to previous episodes for you to use as reference audio. If you would like these lines in script format, please navigate to this link: https://goo.gl/21BcPn--
DIALOGUE INSERT 1
ASAR AMORE (AA)
Good morning Zakera Ward, and welcome. I am Asar Amore. My cohosts, Suraya and Jorik, are reporting live and on-location from the Shin Akiba convention centre, where the Citadel’s own “CitaCon” is currently being held. Before we join them, a quick warning that traffic is dense in the upper wards due to a crash near the six-hundredthirty- three block; and of course, by Shin Akiba, because of today’s festivities. Walking or taking alternative routes is suggested.
MR. RAK BUZZES IN.
MR. RAK
No, no, that’s alright, we can just cut to Suraya and Jorik. (*kzzk*) There’s no need for all of that.
AA
No, but I noticed it on my way to work, and I figured it would be beneficial to inform our dear listeners. Besides, a certain volus deemed it necessary that I be here and not at CitaCon, so I might as well play the part to its fullest extent.DIALOGUE INSERT 2
GEM
Well coincidentally, I think someone can help with that. (*kzzk*) Hey listeners! It’s time for everyone’s favorite ancient artifact of the old world to come on down. Cue that Amore music!
THE “ASAR AMORE” (AA) THEME PLAYS.
AA
Thank you for that... lovely introduction, Gem. I always appreciate you.
GEM
I know. (*kzzk*) I’m pretty fabular. So what are we talking about today, oh super wise elder one?
AA
Well, novice romantics, today we’ve got a special treat: we’re going to talk about courtship and, just because I’m feeling particularly inspired, we’re going to open up our lines so you can call in and share your most romantic story. I look forward to hearing all about it. And it looks like we’ve already got someone on the line.DIALOGUE INSERT 3
MR. RAK
(*kzzk*) For one thing, the studio repairs weren’t cheap. I also have some investments with companies on Noveria. (*kzzk*) That new Spectre caused a lot of people to lose money last week.
AA
Did Commander Shepard perhaps cause some financial difficulties for businesses that harbored and assisted Saren? Rogue. Spectre Saren?
MR. RAK
Elanus Risk Control had nothing to do with Saren. (*kzzk*) Shepard killed dozens of ERCS guards in her search for “corruption” for no reason. All that came out of it was the removal of a highly profitable administrator, and thousands of credits in property damage. Thanks to her, my shares and holdings have dropped by at least five points. (*kzzk*)
AA
So the fact that Administrator Anoleis was corrupt is irrelevant? He used ERCS as enforcers and embezzled from almost every company operating on Noveria during his tenure.
MR. RAK
There is no published proof of such claims! (*kzzk*) This new “Spectre” has no respect for the way business is run.
AA
I find it strange that you’re ignoring the public report from Internal Investigations- Shepard was clearly more than willing to procure evidence so that due process could be followed. There was some collateral property damage, certainly, but this outcome will serve better in the long run.
MR. RAK
(*kzzk*) And the lab spaces that Shepard sunk into the ice? The research and staff lost by Binary Helix are not “better in the long run,” Asar.
AA
True, but I’m sure the new Administrator will be encouraged tokeep things clean from now on. The Noveria Development Corporation is going to be much more invested in the Administrator’s doings, I’m sure.
I am aware that I sound nothing like the original actress and I think it might be near impossible to find someone like that. So just in case you decide to change the story and work in a change in hosts, here's my take on the part.
