and i think it's hella funnier to just see her listen to the krogan go on and on, like almost looking at her nails, than to have him get a rise out of her at that moment.

I think it's not about the Krogan getting a rise out of Shepard but rather having no time to stand there and listen to him monologuing about Clan Weyrloc's plans.

let me re-phrase. if *I* were to do that option, it's because he pissed me off. but i wait it out because i see kyrie as waiting it out. just like "okay, can i kill you now?" she has a strong sense of honor in combat. i have no idea WHY, but she does. maybe because she generally doesn't have to resort to underhanded tactics to win. it doesn't even cross her mind. but i think someday i may make an engineer or infiltrator shep who totally does, just to balance it out.



this is awesome. looks like she just pilfered something and hid it in her pocket

Something else I wanted to ask.

How does your FemShep act in combat? I don't mean my earlier comment about battle cries etc, but....her style of combat/combat tactics? 

Grace defends her team. Taking out as many enimies as she can at one time. Though her team gets injured,  alot, she doesn't stop trying to take out the enemies before they kill her team. (So her tactics, you could say, is a defense, and offense when the enemies get to close to her.)

Jane just takes out her shotgun and shoot them, no tactics really. She uses her shockwave and charge alot, and warp ammo on her mattock. (She does NOT use tactics very often.)

Jen uses cover, tells her team where to take cover and times her shots. When she uses her sniper, she takes it very serious. Using a shotgun, she uses close cover and then runs and shoots. With her assualt rifle she takes a timed and yet quick shot everytime, same with her heavy pistol. Then with her heavy weapon she rapidly fires it then ducks behind cover.  (So Jen is all about tactics.)

kyrie is also all about tactics. she's got mad biotic skills, but she knows that worth nothing if not tempered with thought. so, kind of biotic fire and logical ice, really. 



she uses cover, bring precisely the kind of people she needs to get through her enemies, has everyone switch guns/ammo/tactics/targets at her order. she's a bit of a battlefield control freak, but it works. it's rare than anyone gets within range to touch her team. she tends to take point, and likes to have her people slightly ahead of her to the right and left, to draw the enemy into a flanked area. that way she can keep an eye on everything. 



this is partly in keeping with her personality, and partly because this is the only way i have figured out how to beat the higher difficulties. as awesome as charging sounds, i would die that way so much it would be pathetic.

Charging is only really good if you desperately need shields. Which Meghan does. A lot.

Maddy works with the situations and enemies around her.  She deffinatly has her "moves", but she is mostly a "blunt force" fighter: upclose shotgun work and HTH if she has to. She deffinatly uses cover and tactics as far as team member placement for an optimum spread of fire across the battlefield.

so, blonde sheps...

not many of them here and... can't brag about my memory but, all good girls ?
no renegade/renegon amongst their ranks ? um...

I just consider my Shepard a hardass and don't really dwell on the morality meter (I really like going renegade when settling disputes, especially with Jack/Miranda and at Tali's trial). In ME1, my renegade and paragon meters were pretty even until Virmire happened and my in-game actions had paragon points rolling in after. So I finished as 75% paragon, 53% renegade. In ME2, my renegade meter stayed in the lead for the entire time. I finished with 85% renegade and 78% paragon. (Only renegade option that was not available to me was being able to pass the last Morinth check.) I own a renegade shirt in RL, too. =p 

I also treat my crew as adults. I don't want to hold their hands during their personal missions so if Garrus wants someone dead, I don't question it. I let Miranda shoot her friend -- her problem to deal with, not mine. Same for Mordin in shooting his assistant -- his closure, not mine. Even shot Thane's son to let him know it wasn't a game. I hate Jacob's mission because it's still Shepard suggesting to Jacob what to do with his dad rather than letting him decide and me choosing to let it happen or not.

I think Jen and Kyrie would get along pretty well.

[Chignon]

First off, let me say that your Shepard is very unique. I like her a lot, Gilsa.

Secondly, this. I couldn't agree more with you.

[Sialater]

I figure if they're leaving the decision up to Meghan, they don't really want to do it. So she talks Garrus and Mordin out of it. But strangely, she doesn't do revenge. She saw too many of her fellow gang members consumed with the need for revenge against this person or that organization to the point where they were driven to do something that cost them their lives or their friends' lives.



In the fics, I paragonned Miranda for both Meghan and Avery because I think it works better for the story. In game, however... I'm 50/50 on that interrupt.



Avery, of course, doesn't do cold blooded murder. She's a paragon.

i think so!

this is where if they did a multiplayer version of ME3, i hope it's LAN/internet co-op and i can make my own custom shep. 'cause if so, that would be frickin' awesome to have a bunch of these femsheps running around fighting together.



Noah: So, when we're done here, who wants to come shoot some mercs with me?
Maddie: Mercs? What have they done?
Noah: Does it matter?
Kyrie: Umm... Yes?
Noah: *rolls eyes*
Teagan: I'm there. Just gimmie a moment to change.
Kallen: Sounds...perfect.
Kathryn: Darn, I have a date with Liara tonight. Can't make it. So sorry.
Kallen: D*mn, I forgot. I have a date with Miranda. Hmm... Maybe I can convince her to come with? Miri, what do you say? Mercs first, dinner later?

and...and... I don't know Jessica and holly well enough to know what she'd say to that.
or what the other sheps who aren't in this pic would say to that. someone else will have to supply dialog there

this was my thinking, too. they don't really want to do it. with garrus, esp, i figured omega twisted his thinking to think this was how things needed to be done, but he didn't really want to. his reaction when he doesn't speaks volumes to me. personally, i think helping him to face the gray in the world was a lot harder for him than simply pulling the trigger and calling it done.

sort of that thing from the interpreter movie - the family allowing the person that did them wrong to drown or save them and move on. anyone remember that? "revenge is a lazy form of grief." <-- not every shep, i know, but i think kyrie's really latched on to that. if she went out for revenge, she'd have long since gone insane. there are just too many batarians out there to kill them all.

Leaving the decision up to Shepard? Garrus repeatedly tells Shepard to get out of his shot - Shepard talks him out of it. In my opinion the Paragon decision should've resulted in the loss of Garrus's loyalty but this is another topic.

Same goes for Mordin: Shepard stops him from shooting his assistant. He would have done it if she wouldn't have stopped him.

Garrus could have taken the shot quite a few times and not hit Shepard.  Shepard is SHORTER than Sidonis.  Especially FemShep.

You're right.  It's another topic. 

And being talked out of it is leaving it up to Shepard.  Shepard isn't God, even if she's a canon Mary Sue.

Very well said Sage.

Madeline allowed herself to be consumed by vengence on Mindor. To her it is true what they say:  "Revenge is a dish that is best served cold" .....it was very cold in Maddy's soul that day.   Since then, it has "poisoned" her and she has always strived new to fall into the "black hole" of vengence again.

Shepard is persuading them to not do what they originally wanted/planned to do - I never got the sense that they left it up to her, rather that she interferes. But I guess we'll have to agree to disagree on that then.

But Mary Sue Shepard does have godly powers. Except on Horizon.

what a beautiful shep. blond with dark eyes....hmmm

yes, i understand that, they're adults but...

in garrus' case, for a some time i was kinda changing (with abby) the intervention on that one. now i'm settled. abby stops garrus.  participating in the assassination of a dude in one of the most populated areas of the citadel is just nuts and stupid, spectre or not. if garrus wants revenge, then he should do it alone.

i totally agree on the jacob case.
the same happens in jack's lm. i hate telling her "kill him/ dont kill him". all of a sudden, a very determined woman just frozes and waits for her boss to tell her what to do ?

yes, he would have... but if you ever stopped him, you should have also seen his relief when he doesn't.
for me, it's clear he doesnt really want to kill him. he thinks he has to. all the difference

The way I interpret that scene is that Jack is a very damaged woman.  She spent her entire childhood being told what to do, then escaped, and drifted around with no direction, committing crimes simply because nobody told her not to.  Deep down, she really wants someone to tell her what to do, because she lacks the morality or internal compass to tell her what to do, so she wants to have someone do it for her, as it's easier than figuring out for herself.  In that moment she has realized that Shepard is that guiding compass she can use, and thus asks for Shep's help in deciding what to do.  It's much like the whole Renegading convo in ME1 with Kaidan/Ashley.

Just my interpretation.
