Party members have a nasty habit of turning into love interests. A vorcha would make the process awkward.
Well, if Grunt, Zaeed and Kasumi are on the ship and are not a LI in ME2, then why not have a vorcha crewmember, based on that chain of thought for ME3?
Regardless, there are other concerns mainly with how Vorcha socialize with each other, and with how most Vorcha live and are treated by other species.
It would be tough for a Vorcha to acclimate to spending time on a ship with so many other species if the vorcha party member does not have that type of prior experience (maybe former Blood Pack?) regardless of their physiological adapability.
So what I can picture for a vorcha party member candidate, is a vorcha that is a merc veteran that is close to 17 to 19 years of age that might join Shep for one last mission in his/her life.
But that kind of character could then be considered to have an amalgam of traits from three of the existing ME2 squad members. Jack (wayward fighter, troubled past), Mordin (old man, one last mission) and Thane (near death, seeking atonement) into one new squadmate in terms of the backstory, but then again maybe I'm overthinking the backstory

.
So I'm open to alternatives.
