I care not for Maelon. For Mordin's sake, however, I keep him from killing his old friend.

There, Godwin. It was inevitable. Might as well get it out of the way now.
So is TIM's for that matter.
Ah, but Maelon was actually Mordin's student. Many teachers have that flash before their eyes of getting to kill their students.ODST 3 wrote...

Why do you think Mordin is going to feel better knowing that an extremely dangerous individual is still on the loose threatening to unleash a war?

Nah, the examples you gave just want dominance over others. Maelon seemed sincere in his desire to help the krogan. He didn't want the krogan to dominate others.

He's not really a threat anymore. You and Mordin discuss this.

Yes. If there is one thing Cerberus has proven with its unending series of disastrous experiments, it's that they care about the consequences. Yes sirree.

Rome wasn't built in a day. Sure they had tons of setbacks on their way to building an empire. They were sucessful because they persevered, just like Cerberus perseveres. Small setbacks? *Shrugs* Sh*t happens.

Yeah. That's what the Cerberus doctor told Jack's mother, as I recall.
What? Still furious over that dossier entry? Me? No, no...

In my main game, I let Mordin kill him. I do it mostly because I feel this is Mordins choice and not mine to make. It's the same reason I let Miranda kill Niket and Garrus kill Sidonis.
No at best it's acquiring it under false pretenses. As I mentioned in my example if you give someone something what they choose to do with it does not change the fact you willingly gave it to them.Shandepared wrote...
He used it against them, that's basically stealing it.

It takes a certain.........unique perspective to say that when looking over a mountain of corpses.
For Garrus, you delay him killing Sidonis by blocking his shot. Even after Garrus hears all of this information he still wants to kill Sidonis, he's no longer just making an emotional decision. Garrus has all the facts and still wants him dead, so I let him take the shot. Same goes for Mordin and Miranda. They all have time to gather all the facts and make up thier mind before pulling the trigger, it's no longer just a knee-jerk reaction.DPSSOC wrote...

Here I disagree, Mordin and Miranda are not making a choice they're acting on impulse. It's a reflexive reaction and your interuption gives them the opportunity to actually think about it. If either of them truly wanted to kill those people they would have done so regardless of your intervention. Even Garrus admits (if you ask him just before getting out of the car) that he hasn't really thought this through but he doesn't care. Revenge isn't a choice it's an emotional response and if you force Garrus to actually think about the situation he let's Sidonis go. Had either Mordin, Miranda, or Garrus decided they still wanted their respective targets dead I wouldn't have tried to stop them but I make sure I give them the opportunity to think it through. Zaeed's an example of this he wants to go after Vido and let the workers die, I ask him to think about it, he does and decides he wants Vido dead, so Vido dies.

Not following ya, obliviousness is interfering with my ability to conjure up some half decent fury.
He's not dangerous, he doesn't know what to do with himself though Mordin suggests making the most of his survival. Since the game typically rewards one for paragon choices, I assume that either we'll never see him again, or our mercy will result in him contributing in some way to the galaxy. Maybe another clinic like Mordin's will be open on Omega. If he returns in Mass Effect 3 with an army of evil, Weyrloc krogan and joins the Reapers then I'll regret it.Shandepared wrote...

If you're still trying to be a Spectre, he needs to die.
What's your job description? Preserve galactic stability. Under no circumstances does "krogan released from the genophage" qualify as preserving galactic stability. Maelon is a textbook example of the reasons Spectres are above the law in the execution of their duties; it might not be right to let Mordin shoot him, but it is necessary.
Besides, they were going to be making trouble for Urdnot, and King Bro needs all the help he can get right now.

He doesn't need more punishment. He has enough psychological torment. Mordin doesn't need any of his own.Nightwriter wrote...
If you kill him, you're doing it needlessly, unless you're doing it to punish him, which is a different matter.
Even then it's a little severe, seeing as how all we really know he did for sure is experiment on some krogan volunteers and one human of indeterminate origin and lifestyle. Very wrong, but execution-worthy? The kid is confused. And crazy.
Only one human subject - whom you can bet was not a volunteer to die for the krogan - is discussed during the mission. To extend this to suggest Maelon had only one human test subject is the most astounding kind of denial I've seen in some time.Nightwriter wrote...
