As for ME RP, I did the insane, unmoderated Facebook RP for a couple months* before a bunch of RL problems and just plain burnout caused me to stop. It was a lot of fun, but that is the first and last time I do such a huge unmoderated RP.  That being said, I might be up for a smaller RP with fewer explosions**.  I do tend to play original characters*** in the universe in RPs--I figure Shep's story is better left to BioWare.

** Less explosions. Yeah. Right.

On the topic of batarian squadmate:

Ha! At least you're giving me someone who can fight. As long as he falls in line and does his job, I don't care what race he is or how many eyes he has.

I've killed plenty of Batarians, but I've killed plenty of just about everything. This one acts up? I kill him too. If he can't get the job done, the mission takes care of that for me.

Oh and Joker is going to love this. I'm only a Volus, Hanar and Elcor away from completing the whole set.

TOPIC:    Proposed Batarian Squad Member

I owe the batarians one thing: my career.

Smoke and carnage left Mindoir in ashes. My mother was stationed near there. I saw the news vids. I found my calling in defense - the Alliance military. But this isn't an Alliance operation. A batarian wants to fight our war? Go ahead. They could use the extra credit.

I have one thing to say: Exploding Rainbow Turians :o 

I miss Richard too.  He's one of my favorite characters to play.  But the size and insanity of the RP, combined with the complete lack of oversight or moderation apart from just blocking the jerks was eventually just too much for me to handle.  When it starts feeling like a job and stops feeling like fun...it's time to quit.

Hmm...I wonder if I could talk anyone into a moderated reboot?  Using a medium other than FB?

Mine is just fine inside the Mako.  Damned thing can't be taken out by anything short of a Collector ship's guns.  It's on foot that makes her freak out.  Though she got over that pretty quickly on Grunt's mission--took a second to collect herself, then shot the Cain right into the maw's ugly mouth:devil:  

Mine tends to jump out of the Mako the minute one appears and fight it on foot. His squad probably thinks he's insane, but he really just doesn't want to see anyone else killed by a thresher maw, and he figures the best way to do that is distract it. Besides, he already knows that he can fight them off after Akuze.

And a close-range shot with the Cain is the only way to go. >:D He loves the explosions.

Batarian Squadmate: Welcome aboard, Nisk. We have already discussed your charge as a squadmamber so we should be good. Kelly would show you your room. Feel free to ask if there's something you need.

Everyone, meet Nisk; he'd be responsible for infiltration, hacking and explosives. Please keep in mind that any racism or hostility shown towards each other would make me very displeased.

Nisk, the latter applies to you as well.

~ ~ ~

EDI: I hope you are certain about your decision, Shepard.

Shepard: I'm going to keep an eye on him, just as I kept an eye on other squadmembers. Everyone here proved his or her loyality to me, and Nisk would have to do the same.

First of all, I should probably take a moment to thank each of you for your thoughts on this topic weather I agree with your opinions or not. I cannot but respect someone who is willing to stand firm in their convictions even if I can find no logic behind their line of thinking.

Still, I should probably clarify myself somewhat as to the comments I previously made. Some of you have accused me, and those like me, of being almost evil in our views. Those of you who were not born in the colonies can have no understanding of what it is like to wake up one morning and simply lose everything that ever meant something to you. We did nothing to provoke the Batarian slavers that came to our world but that didn’t stop them from killing or enslaving ever man, women, and child they could. You see, that’s my point when it comes to dealing with them. You cannot negotiate with these people! The only thing Batarians understand is terror and brutalizing the innocent.

In all my life I have never met a Batarian that ever came up to me an apologized for what they did on Mindoir or for starting a war against Earth. Never have I met a one who did anything other than repeat the same actions I saw when I was a child. They are brutal and savage people who deserve no mercy until a clear and exact justice can be met upon them.

The Batarians know me as the “Butcher of Torfan” because I showed them the same mercy they showed me. My family pleaded with them, begged them to show mercy yet none came. For that, they will receive no mercy from me. “The Butcher,” it’s an interesting name isn’t it? Still, before a butcher can truly sharpen his blades to make a precise cut, they must first be honed and sharpened correct? Torfan was my sharpening stone.

At some point, the Reapers will defeated and then I will turn my attention to another threat. It reminds me of the American who in the 1940’s created the atomic bomb. Upon seeing it’s devastating power, he exclaimed, “Behold, I am become death, the shatter of worlds.” The blood of innocents has been shed and only blood can repay the debt of my pain.

TOPIC: Proposed Batarian Squad Member


I can’t say I would be in love with the idea of having a Batarian on my team, but if it has to be, then it has to be.  I’ll deal with it as best I can.  Hell, I’m working with Cerberus and they killed my unit on Akuze, tortured my friend for years.  Now he hates my guts.  So, if I get bent out of shape for having a Batarian on my team just because they killed my family I say they makes me a *censored* hypocrite.

Sure, Mindoir  *censored* me up in a way you can’t imagine, but holding on to that hate was the worst part about it.   But like I said, if it’s got to be, it’s got to be, so if this guy respects my authority, respects the crew and does his job, we’ll have no problems.  If not, then we’ll have a problem, and I’ll deal with it in a way I see fit.

@ UJ Shepard (JamieCOTC)

You mentioned Cerberus in your comments and some of the actions they have taken against you in the past. If you don’t mind me asking, when you consider the response of the Alliance and the Council towards the current Reaper threat, do you find yourself trusting TIM more under these circumstances?

I suppose my point of the question is that like you, I hated Cerberus for some of things I saw them do in the past but after getting brushed aside by the Alliance, the Council, and even Kaiden, I have reconsidered my position on Cerberus. Though I don’t always like their methods, right now they are the only group willing to give me the support needed. Besides, TIM doesn’t really care how I accomplish a mission. Do I trust him? Not in the slightest but at least I know that for now, we have the same objectives.

On topic of a Batarian squadmate: I hate Batarians. I'd say their purpose in this universe is to get their ugly faces smashed in with the Marines' rifle butts. But they are tough in their own way. Real hardcore. More so than the Turians, that's for sure. With the Batarians it's not so much about tradition as about fanaticism. Their elite units are highly disciplined, and some of their officers are really cunning at tactics and all the military stuff. And I have to, you know, respect all that. Too bad they are stuck in the middle ages or something, I mean socially, or maybe it's the Council's fault. Don't matter much, actually. They go down, we go up.

So, what if I had to work together with a Batarian on a mission? Well, if I absolutely had to, like if I'm ordered to, like I was ordered to become a Spectre with the former Council, and to take a Quarian aboard my ship, then yes, why not? My personal opinion of them wouldn't really count. That happens in the line of duty. Sure, it'd be quite uneasy. And given my reputation, that Torfan affair and all, I doubt any Batarian could be too happy working with me either. But, unlike the Krogans that are unpredictable in principle, the Batarians can be easily reasoned with and need motivation for everything they do, just like us, so as long as I am in the clear about that Batarian's motivation, I think we can be cool.

Oh, and I almost forgot. Non-humans are not permitted to smoke on my ship!

@Rayne K Shepard (lastpatriot)

As far as the Council is concerned, they can kiss my lily white a**.  I consider them at least culpable in the deaths of hundreds of thousands of human colonists for doing absolutely jack sh*t in helping me take down the Collectors.  I’m still a Spectre, big *censored* whoop.  The Alliance, I dunno.  I think there’s still good people there like Hackett and Ash, but the politics bogs it all down.  As to your question concerning the Illusive Man, I don’t trust him any further than I can throw the Normandy.  Do I believe he had genuine concerns about the abductions, yes, but there was something else to it.  Hell, maybe he only brought me back to get to get his hands on that damned base.  If so, sucks to be him, ‘cause I blew it up.  At the end of the day we all have to play the hand we are dealt.  I worked with Cerberus to take down the Collectors.  I didn’t like it, and I still don’t trust the organization, but what else was I going to do?

TOPIC CHANGE: Trusting Cerberus, the Alliance, or the Council


This last topic of the Batarians rolls rather well into the issue that I think everyone has tried to better deal with which is who to trust. We know Cerberus has a “history” of unethical actions, the Alliance appears to be weighed down in politics, and the Council – well, they are still the Council….

With that in mind, let’s open the floor up to this topic and see where it goes.

@ UJ Shepard (JamieCOTC)

Like you, I tend not have much, if any, respect for the Council anymore. When considering the lives that were lost to save them during the Geth attack, I cannot but question whether it was worth the cost we had to pay. How many husbands, wives, mothers and fathers have I had to explain that their children gave their lives to defend a group which cares nothing for them. May God forgive me….

As for the Alliance, it was terribly difficult for me to accept what Jeff told how after I was gone, they simply wanted everything I got started to just go away. Politically, I didn’t fit the mold anymore. From my days on Mindoir, the Alliance has been all I have ever known and now I can’t even trust CAPT Anderson anymore. They turned their back on me and even convinced Kaiden that I betrayed them. What loyalty do I owe them anymore? To hell with Alliance!

I don’t trust Cerberus anymore than you do but right now, the lines between who is a friend and foe are mighty thin. Cerberus has given me my life back, a new ship, the ability to be with what few friends I still have, and almost unlimited resources to complete my mission. TIM doesn’t question my decision, doesn’t tell me something can’t be done. I may not like some of the things he’s done in the past but thus far, he has been the only person other than my crew that understands what it means when a Marine says “Never Again!” There must be a line drawn against the darkness and at least Cerberus understands that to obtain victory, there must be a terrible price to be paid.

As for the second topic, I guess I'd join both Jamie and Patriot. (Ripley Shepard would join Rayne and UJ, I'd rather say.)

Still, my Ripley is warmer when it comes to Alliance and the Council. As for the Alliance, both her parents were in the navy, Hackett is a family friend; even though Alliance can be screwed up by politics Ripley knows she is supported.

It's a bit harder with the Council, though. As a player I understand that Bioware had to make them indifferent to the threat to make Shep's ties with Cerberus stronger, but ah yes, 'responsible Council', Bioware dismissed that claim. All in all, I can't seriously believe that Council is really like it's shown in-game; to cut a long story short, in my personal canon they do make many decisions (which are not related to the actual game plot) my Shep supports/agrees with.

Besides, Ripley had been born to be someone like a Spectre, that's an ideal position for her. Ironically, 'saving the Galaxy' stuff isn't her cup of tea. So, I hope she'd continue operating as a Spectre after ME3 (and a gooood looong vacation).

(Sorry for using the first-person narrative point of view but I'm not sure can grasp Ripley's own voice properly now.)

RE: Batarian Squadmate:



You know, I've often said I wouldn't ****** on one if it were on fire. But, then I met a Batarian suffering from the plague. He lay there, dying, and spat just as much hate and vitreol about us humans as we do about them.

Batarians are ugly, and a lot of them engage in some pretty heinous practises. But, as someone very near and dear to me said once, "They're jerks and saints, just like us."

For the second topic, I think Kaliya is mostly with Ripley and Jamie on the Alliance and Council, but very different on Cerberus.  She does feel a little more kinship with the Alliance since they got her off Earth, and does feel like saving all the crew on board the Citadel ships was numerically worth the human loss of life regardless of the Council's general uselessness.

But for Cerberus...

If the Reapers weren't a threat, Cerberus and I would have been gunning for each other after everything they've done. I'm surprised their Illusive Man didn't foresee the fallout--or maybe he did and he's just playing dumb. At any rate, I've got to watch it now that Lazarus Cell has cut ties with Cerberus. I don't expect a knife in the back any time soon, though--the Illusive Man tied his own hands. Even he knows that his wayward cell is best equipped to deal with the Reapers, and hindering our efforts is the best way to sign his own death warrant by machine apocalypse.  IF we survive this...we'll see how much of Cerberus remains when I'm through.

Topic: batarian
Great Universe, no! Normandy is already filled with people half of who I can't trust. I don't need any newcomer to worry about - no batarian, no asari, no human. Joker, lose this channel!

Topic: trust
I don't trust Council - that bunch of politics worry only about dominance of own species. I don't trust Alliance because of Horizon - they only protects own asses and choose easiest way instead of right way. No med-scan me but endanger entire colony and the person I love...d? just to find a proof of Cerberus'es involvement - it seems to I served all my life to assheads. Bravo. I don't trust Cerberus because I've tried so hard to gather forces and the sole news about Cerberus building own Reaper - and they WILL do it, I'm sure, - will blow them away. I don't trust Liara because she obviously planned her becoming of Shadow Broker. I don't trust Joker because he agreed to work for terrorists just to have ability to fly - what else he would do for this? I don't trust Kaidan because he turned his back on me at the moment I urgently needed someone I can trust.
It seems that I can only trust to myself.

(Colonist, Sole Survivor, 'Renegon', etc.)

"The Council kan kiss my ass, as far as I'm concerned. And right now, from where I'm standing, the Alliance can do that too. Ten years of my
life I poured into their program. Hell, I got myself and a fair number of my crew killed trying to make the galaxy a safer place, and all it got me was a ****-ton of suspicion, accusations of treason, and a metaphorical slap in the face.
Screw them both, with their fake smiles and empty promises. I'm done putting up with political bullcrap, and I'm done playing Nice Cop and getting nothing out of it but a stab in the back. Politicians can handle that; they seem to get a buzz out of that kind of thing. I'm going to go out and do my damn job."


...Feel better now?

"Yeah. I'm done. I'm good."

Great.
...You never did mention Cerberus in that rant. >.>


"Oh, christ, here we go. Fine. Let's look at the facts. They murdered my entire squad on Akuze. They tortured and experimented on one of my squadmates, while I spent the next few years torturing myself because I thought he was dead along with everyone else. Oh, and he apparently hates me now; thanks for bringing that up.
"They conducted brutal experiments on civilians. I don't care what the Illusive Man says; that **** does not fly with me. They've blown up starships, endangered countless lives, and... and brought me back from the dead. Gave me back my purpose. Rebuilt the Normandy, tracked down my crew, and went out of their collective way to shower me with all the weapons, armor, and resources I needed.
"They... he made me feel
valued.
I don't know how I feel about Cerberus. Goddammit. I don't
know."

Vi? Are you okay?

"Yeah. I'm fine. ...I'm also on a schedule. Next question, please."

Cameron Shepard

Ah...yeah. The Council.

Honestly? I could care less. I honestly could. If they want to stick their heads in the sand and pretend that Sovreign was geth tech....fine. Let them. I'd welcome their aid, if they'd show a little support but I can't worry about wheather or not they think I'm a terrorist or crazy.
 
I've a galaxy to save, and I'll be damned if I'm going to let fears and worries stop me.

The Alliance? .....I don't know what to think about them. They try and do good, but they're...weighted by politics. I honestly think Garrus has the right idea at times. *humorless chuckle*  So much has changed...

And Cerberus? Well, Illusive can claim he's in this for humanities best interests, but I don't trust him at all. I have a feeling he knew the Lazarus Cell would break away from his control. He's not an idiot. He knows trying to go after us is risking the one chance humanity has to stop this threat.

Afterwords? .....I can't worry about that right now. The mission comes first.

@Rayne K Shepard (lastpatriot)

I don’t begrudge your feelings toward Cerberus, but unfortunately I can’t share them, at least not when it comes to the Illusive Man.  Yeah, he brought me back and I did what he wanted, well except for blowing up the
base.  Yeah, he gave me a ship, but it came with so many strings attached it might as well have been a prison ship.  He spied on me and my crew and told me what to do and where to go.  Sometimes I thought I
was still with the damned Council.  He lied to me constantly, put me, my crew and countless thousands in danger.  He lied to me about Liara because he knew she and I --

I know sacrifices have to be made. We all do, and it’s not over yet.  But on my ship, it’s my decision on what or even who is sacrificed.  It’s not TIM’s decision. It’s mine and the way I see it, he didn’t give me a damned thing.  I took my life and my ship back when I blew up that damned base.

But like I said, I respect your feeling on this because that's your decision to make.

TOPIC: Trusting Cerberus, the Alliance, or the Council
The Illusive Man is meglomanical, but we seem to want the same for now. I don't trust him for a second. And where did he get the tech to bring me back from the dead? Miranda is dodgy too. I don't trust her. Jacob might be an ally. I don't really trust him either.  But for now they are benefitting the team. I wouldn't hesitate to shoot either of them if it came to it. I think they know it.

I'm pissed the Alliance are jerking around. Our colonies are going missing!  They can't be bothered to send a real investigation team? Hackett and Anderson are being cautious with me. I don't blame them. I'm a ghost. But they shouldn't be cautious in the Terminus. They shouldn't be cautious with our colonies.

And don't even get me started on the willful ignorance of the council. They want to believe that the colonist abductions are a "purely human matter" fine. But you can't wish away the Reapers. The peace they believe exists in council space is just an illusion.


I have a bad feeling about all of this.  But I'm here now. Whats the worst that can happen? I die again?

Alliance have proven their uselessness. Just like my parents, they prefer to shove head in the sand when real danger come. Allaince is not that organisation what can lead humanity to deserved greatness.
Council - it was I who freed the place for new iteration of this asses, and look what they've done? Nothing. They even refused to talk to me. Fine - saving them wasn't the least my intentionTurians raising heads again - fine. You'll be the first line of defense again.
Cerberus. I wish I worked with them before. No questions, no stupid regs, no whining - accept the job and make it done. I see that Illusive man betrayed me several time, but I'm not exactly care About newcomers on the ship, too. Now I've proven my loyalty, and real job begins.

And people wonder why the Alliance does not document everything. :P

O.O  Actually (and correct me if I'm wrong, Kim), I think Saren just snapped the guy's neck after torturing him.  He didn't burn the poor bastard alive, so congrats.  You just surpassed Saren :whistle:

Whoops, I had meant to reply to this earlier. Anyhow, I cannot say since I have yet to read any of the novels. I ought to do so at some point. In any case, I am soon going to work on a fanfic that offers a more in-depth looks once my muse comes around. Short version, if it entailed discharging a full clip on surrendering Batarian with the sole intention of not killing them, a pistol whip like never before and possibly burning them with the ammunition. Then yes, she had a Saren moment.

And people wonder why the Alliance does not document everything. :P


O.O  Actually (and correct me if I'm wrong, Kim), I think Saren just snapped the guy's neck after torturing him.  He didn't burn the poor bastard alive, so congrats.  You just surpassed Saren :whistle:


Yeah, that was mostly me just going off with the flow. Little too much. :D

Coincidently, that does happen earlier... just it is not Shepard doing it. Ah, Mindoir... you horrid horrid backstory.
