My mainshep is a colonist/ War hero and an inflitraitor . She is also a paragon turned paragade in ME2.
Neat story I did just for her to explain the transition *ahem*
When saved during Mindoir, instead of using that experience as a reason to be vengeful, my Shepard wanted to be just like those soldiers so she could save others and make a difference. They saw importance in her life even though she was just some colony kid that didn't matter in the grand scheme of things. Shepard makes a point to never to forget the little people which explains why she gladly stops to help strangers all the time. It’s also why she argues so strongly with Garrus in the beginning because he spoke of bystanders as if they were just numbers to him. Despite this strong belief, something happened that challenged her most important philosophy during "Bring down the sky". Shepard promised herself that she wouldn't let what happened on Mindoir ever cloud her judgement, but Balak was the most evil baterian she had ever encountered and no doubt was responsible for lots of human enslavement and deaths.
In the moment she had to choose, she was filled with so much hate that his death was immediately more important than the life of those 3 scientists. She leaves him wounded for reinforcements but the result is horribly bittersweet, Shepard isn't the same afterwards as she can’t forgive herself for what she did.
After she is brought back, it's obvious that's she's a bit more vengeful and has a lot more contempt for criminals than she originally did . It explains why she behaves so differently in ME2 (more likely to say and do renegade things) she seems to have “wised up” to how the most of the Galaxy works at that point, it’s not a nice place and you can’t be the nice guy all the time. ME2, for me, was all about my mainshep slowly regaining her past idealism, by stopping Garrus from killing Sidonis, stopping Miranda, Mordin etc. She has to live with horrible regret so she doesn’t want her team mates to do the same.
Ok I’ll stop now, sorry, I love inventing stories, it’s so much fun!
For Kara, the events on Mindoir have been her fuel to make a change in the galaxy. For the better. But after the Alliance turned their back on her, she finds herself more vulnerable than ever. She is alone, for the first time in years and she hates the feeling. She's always been wary around Batarians but never allowed herself to actually hate them. In Me2 her emotional chaos can't stop her from turning into a Batarian racist. She finds herself more than once considering certain things and it all just adds to everything.
Yet, she starts to like the whole having her own ship thing with no regulations from doing her job.
Yeah that's why I love going to Omega first, its where she acts most renegade, it's also the place that has the most Baterian confrontation. Shepard gets to threaten the ones at the entrance to afterlife, smart talk the one that calls her a stripper, get revenge on the one that poisons her, electrocute cafka not to mention being able to kill the ones that hold Mordin's assistant hostage. Despite all this My Mainshep still helps the sick one in Mordin's recruitment only because he isn't a criminal, she makes a point that she can see the difference between a Baterian and a criminal buts is extremely difficult considering their reputation and attitude.
Kara let's the Batarians who captured Daniel leave but she considered killing them and it confused the hell out of her. she's a woman of her word and has never killed for pure revenge or fun. The fact, that she is tempted to pull the trigger, scares her. i am reworking that chapter at the moment because I've always felt it doesn't translate this well enough.
