The Cage - An Audiodrama (18+ Submissions only) - PILOT EPISODE
Schmanda for Naomi Thatcher
The Consigliere and personal assistant to Emery Visally. Naomi is the right hand woman, bodyguard, Enforcer, and "problem solver" when someone steps out of line.
For this voice we need someone very cool, cold, and almost disinterested in what they do. To Naomi, she's already made it in life. In a cruel and vast galaxy she has a high paying job, access to any sort of entertainment, a comfortable life, and a front row seat to the world of show business; and Naomi has no intention of losing it.
There will be times where Naomi speaks more openly and human like, but for the most part we need someone able to pull off the "I don't care either way" voice.
Best voice reference would be Frieren from Frieren Beyond Journey's End.
(Being asked not to kill someone) Why what ever do you mean sir? I haven't killed anyone in over a decade, and have no intention of doing so now. Any recent implications are purely circumstantial and wouldn’t hold up in a court of law.
(Holding a gun to someone's head) You just don't get it do you? I can't be bought and sold like some common good. You could offer me all the money in the galaxy but it wouldn't compare to what I'm paid now (Pause) No, in this life. . . Loyalty is worth more than a world. If it's any comfort, I will miss our conversations, old friend.
(Still kind of cold, but give it a smile while saying this) I enjoyed today, if I'm being honest. Despite the hardships and well the... Attempt on your lives. I find that this was a very fun use of my time. I look forward to doing it again.
