I'd wager almost everyone has this shot...

A bit blurry, and she has her helmet on, but I do have something very close~



I much prefer this shot, though - a second after the last one LOL.



Mmmm helmets... Loved keeping them on in the first game. <3

[f1r3storm]

I never wear any helmets if i don't have to.

I'll usually keep a helmet on for the start of that first mission on Eden Prime, because it's dropping into a warzone on an official Alliance mission under orders from your Captain, which means protocol must be followed, but it comes off after Jenkins gets shot. My femSheps tend not to be big on helmets. Helmets didn't help on Akuze. A helmet didn't help Jenkins. Losing another person under her command while wearing that helmet, which she already dislikes, pushes it over the edge and she ditches hers (in my imagination, Kaidan has some comments at that point). Later, on the Citadel, running around in a helmet would be odd. Then she gets her Spectre status and her own command, and so she never wears helmets, except during vacuum ops, again.

In a way, both Artemis and Athene (both sole-survivors) feel kind of that they've cheated death, or at least, when death comes for them, wearing a helmet or not won't stop it. That's a significant part of their emotional "scars" from Akuze**, and that's why they'll drop into apparently hopeless odds without a second thought. They'd rather feel the wind of whatever rock they are on in their hair and on their skin when that moment comes.

Obviously in vacuum, helmets are a must, ME2 Magic space breathers notwithstanding.

[edited to make crappy wording slightly less crappy]

[edit]
** I suspect that, in feeling the need to blame something, they blame their helmets partially for them getting caught out in the thresher maw attack, as the helmets slightly reduced their peripheral vision and ambient hearing. Granted, it's not a rational thing to blame, but you can't necessarily expect completely rational thinking in the aftermath of that terrible situation. I suspect this, but I'm not sure. Perhaps one of these days they will tell me. Perhaps their reasoning will be different between them.

I get to know my femSheps a little more every day, but I am a long way from knowing everything about them.

Helmets are interesting... I personally think that it looks rather cool in ME2 so I'm torn whether or not to use it. In ME1 it has some annoying eyelash problem which makes it look weird in some pictures.

That's a very interesting take on the helmets! Jennelyn (my Shep) tends to keep the helmet on when open fire is anticipated. Otherwise, it stays off.

Sad that we don't get that aesthetic luxury (toggle helmet) on ME2, though it did make me appreciate my helmetless Shep a lot more - she was wearing one for the majority of ME1. The helmet look really grew on me, I guess. xD

Thanks.

The more I've played the games, the more I've got to know my characters, and the more self-consistant their stories become. I like to do things in game, not because they are necessarily the best course of action or the best gear or whatever, but because they fit my femSheps and (in my mind) make a more consistant universe. Neither Artemis or Athene wear helmets, and, if they aren't going to wear helmets, then there needs to be a reason for them to not wear them. As they are sole survivors, this reasoning stuck.

I figure, if I ever make a paragon-ish War Hero (if I do, she'll probably be named "Soteira"), she'll be a helmet wearer (except on the Citadel in normal non-combat situations). Actually, come to think of it, unless I come up with a good back story to have a reason for not wearing one, my possible future renegade-ish Ruthless ("Anaideia" is her proposed name) will also be a helmet wearer.

Oh, it's pointing guns time now. Fine, I can play.





Pointing guns is all good, but shooting them is great too. Especially when done casually.


Mordin's posture and expression tops it off.

Okay, enough of that. I need to get some sleep. G'night.

This is my Adept, Samantha Shepard (face code not by me):









Should've removed the Sentry Interface before starting the mission...

Oh, well...

*squee*...... I mean...that's cool.

sneaks in for a moment. I know I saw a femshep use that hair before and I asked in modding page, but it seems to be quiet so.... does anyone happen to have a code for Khalisah al'Jilani's hair mesh?
been searching for a while now, unsuccessfully, so far :/

I'm realizing that I just cannot stand what they turned this hairstyle into in ME2... it's too shaggy and too long now, doesn't have that little triangle of cropped hair at the bottom... but Kalisa's hair does. help?

[Interactive Civilian]

Just out of curiosity, based on the discussion of helmet philosophy above (my posts 1, 2), what about the rest of you?

How do helmets fit with your femSheps, and do you have any "in the game universe" reasoning for it? i.e. Do you just wear helmets or not for the look? Or is it part of your Shepard's character to do so or not?

There are a lot of things I rationalize in my head as not appearing in-game, but that are in actuality happening.  Like the squaddies wearing armor, when they're not actually wearing armor.  Or people wearing casual clothes when they're fully kitted for no reason.

Same goes for helmets.  I imagine my Shep's use helmets *all the time* because let's face it, in combat situ's that makes sense, but I never use them in-game except in vacuum because I like to see my Shep's face.

It's a game, so it's not an accurate mirror of reality.  Wow, that would be boring.  Press "w" to wait 5 hours until you reach the next relay.  But I can imagine in my head that all these things would actually be happening if it were "real".

[jeweledleah]

ELE, you are my hero

and speaking of helmets. its one thing I never role play. none of my Shepards wear helmets, ever. I hate hats of any kind in real life, I like seeing the faces I designed for my Shepards, so the most they get is the visor, because it looks like something a special forces operative could conceivably wear.

[TheMarshal]

I never liked having helmets on unless obviously necessary (i.e. missions with no atmosphere). Most of that is aesthetics - I mean I created this face, I kind of want to see it. Helmets make sense to wear in combat, for the most part, but I think that as a sniper you'd want your senses to be as minimally impaired as possible. So that's how I RP it. But I wouldn't be averse to some sort of auto-engaging helmet system (like they use in Dead Space 2).

[CrazyRah]

Decided that i need to do a Vanguard playthrough and this is my attempt to create a decent custom Shep for the try

[lolwut666]

Garrus: Score! Now for the threesome!

[NM7]

Very nice, ELE.

So does this mean you're keeping Drea? You've made three pieces of work with her in by my counting. Or will she eventually end up in your overly stocked femshep graveyard?

On the subject of helmets. I always hide them or don't wear them in the case of ME2. As most people have said, I want to see the face of the character I've created. I don't have an in game reason for them not wearing one, but I suppose I could just go the route of saying they are actually wearing a helmet, it's just invisible to me.

[Loerwyn]

Gun-related poses, huh? How about tickets to the gun show?
