General Grievous has nothing on this.

Hmmm... I've actually always wondered if the Kaleesh were inspiration for the quarians... they are VERY similar.

The hands, the toes, the decorative cloth, the accents, Kaleesh, Kelish, their homeworlds are arid, they wear masks...

Holy ****.

OH SHI-

Tali:  So... let me get this straight.  Your going to cut down these trees, to build our house?  Where did you learn to work a chainsaw?

Shepard:  Didn't I tell you?

Tali: *Tilts her head*

Shepard: ...I'm a lumberjack, baby.

((And that is the first think I thought of as that song just started playing.  The Tali-doctrination is complete. ))

HAHAHAAAAAAAAAAA!

As Spat said: good sh*t. Good sh*t, indeed.

Now. Watch as I litterally do three things at once. I will work on Chapter 3 with Jones, write the Shepard/Tali Shower Fic, and possibly Angel of Death, if Azint is so inclined.

I've been a ****ing force of literary nature this past week. Bring the noise, baby. For Tali.

It's been confirmed. He has six arms.

You've opened pandoras box of Quarian origin.

Quick! Close it!

It actually makes sense...

Dear god...

OH SHI-

I know, right?

Makes sense that it could be part of the inspiration.

A big part from the look of things.

That or one HELL of a coincidence.

Looked them up on wookieepedia, maybe culture wise but body structure nah.

Not a chance in hell. There is no way it can be that similar by mistake...

That scene gave me nightmares as a kid.

Still gives me damn goose bumps.

Now that I think about that Terminator 2 scene...



Makes you wonder how horrible the Morning War was. Couldn't even imagine.

Seriously. One day I will have a long discussion with Tali's concept artist and designers.

I will have answers.

Geth come close. Driving them from their homeworld, or at least, coming close.

Holy ****...

I was imagining more children being ripped to pieces by geth, but whatever floats your boat.

Nukes were probably involved, too.

So... Yeah.

The Kaleesh had their first "apperence" in the 'Heir to the Empire' book, published in 1995.  But from what I can see, most of their backstory seems to have been developed only recently.

Perhaps the inspiration worked in the other way?

Now that I think about it from their view, I'd be hell bent on destroying the Geth. 

The Terminator series reminds me of the Quarians and the Geth. Skynet became self aware (So did the Geth) and we tried to pull the plug (Same with the Quarians).

And then all hell broke loose.

Slade, for me.

But I'll be damned if his voice hasn't stuck with me ever since. It's so... chilling.

This is true.

So is Morgan Freeman.

. . . That doesn't have anything to do with the conversation, I just really like Morgan Freeman.

[Azint]

Leto Station, turian make. A repurposed surveillance installation now utilized by the Blue Suns. It was once used as an administrative facility, for the function of detecting any inbound object in space. The equipment that gave it utility has long since rendered obsolete, but it housed a massive cluster of hangers all built around the station as a ring. The station itself is a bulky, tower-like construction with bulks of antennae on both ends. Leto Station was also a small-time producer of arms, those sold throughout the Terminus.
 
It stood in space with small convoys surrounding it. The Blue Suns were trafficking unregistered ships through the Terminus to the Traverse. The equivalent of border crossing. The Blue Suns themselves made a profit for servicing these ships and laboring any crewmember for their factories. Illegal vessels in Citadel territory, industrializing for a mercenary group, the sort of cases that would upset any law-enforcement.
 
Shepard was inbound.
 
The borrowed freighter made a pass around the station, passing several small convoys on opposite sides of the ring. The unnamed frieighter floated through the typical hangar forcefield, there it gently docked in the spacious hangar. Several crates were stacked along the walls, and a catwalk hung from the ceiling. Ship parts, terminals, and tools were scattered all over the floor. Everything was grimy, weathered, used. The station was old, but sturdy.
 
The foreman clicked over the radio that the ship made it and the hangar doors sealed. Along with several mechanics, a small brigade of Blue Suns troops, less then ten, stood at arms to greet the ship. Humans, turians, batarians, they all stood around the door of the freighter’s cargo hold. Every merc lazily carried his assault rifle; none were even prepared for what was behind the cargo bay doors.
 
The freighter’s cargo bay doors opened with a rattle. The inside was completely dark. Confused, several of the workers and guards called out for the crew to no response. Several tried to work their omni-tool to activate the light to no success. One mechanic stepped inside and activated his omni-tool’s flashlight to investigate. He stepped into the darkness alone to survey the inside; the clutter of objects from inside obscured the view for the rest who stood at the door. The man made a yelp, his cry was cut, along with his neck. Two of the mercs hurried into the hold shouting, a knife in the dark silenced one. The other met a bogeyman in the dark, his scream was loud and so was his skull when it was cracked against a wall. The metal bang being the last thing to test them, the remaining staff fired into the dark. It was not until three remained when they realized something else was firing back. Before they even managed to take proper cover, they each took a Viper round to the head.
 
The gunfire was enough to alert the rest of the station.
