EDIT: Hot damn. That's two ToP's in a row where I didn't even know I would be ToP, but already had pictures posted. I'm either incredibly pathetic for posting too much....or I'm just that good. :P (Probably the former!)

Got my N7 shirt in the mail today. Squee! They desperately need to add Kaidan and Ashley shirts. Whine.

Here's another Kaidan. By LadyNorrington19.

And I adore this one!!! :wub:<3 (ladynorrington too)

That is wonderful, thanks for the pointer!  While I'm not overly in love with the new default femShep, and especially not in blond, this piece has some serious style :).

New FemShep looks about sixteen, LOL, but I like the blonde. I like the redhead too, but I always have a "canon" blonde PC since I have the same haircolor. I'm terribly shallow in that way. ;)

You should definitely chat more. Practice spouting complete nonsense like me! It can be surprisingly fun. :lol: Kisses back to ya, love. <3

Yes, it is definitely her age (or lack thereof) that bothers me most about her.  One could argue about her hairstyle being absolutely, completely impractical in combat situations, but I'm fine with sacrificing a little realism for the sake of vanityB).  Otherwise I'm ok with her; may or may not eventually use her on a playthrough, I'm kind of attached to my femSheps at this point.

Night dunfall!

Graceyn, I like my femSheps too, but I may decide to play the new default once. Provided she actually looks like a grown woman in-game LOL.

Yeah, this thread has been pretty quiet, probably because there hasn't been any Kaidan news recently.

Clearly, Casey Hudson needs to make another insensitive remark about our favourite L2 biotic. That would get this thread moving! :lol:

Um... Have some Kaidan/manShep, but our own IsaacShep.

As long as it don't turn out to be a crazy plot twist where the collectors for some reason let the VS go on Horizon. If they messed with Kaidan in some way I'll... Well kill some more Reapers! But it sure bothers me that he didn't get taken when those close to him clearly did. :?

Ah yes, the Asari reproductive system.... I have dismissed this claim. :devil:


Bwhahahaha. I did a whole rant in my head yesterday about why I can't stand the Asari race and Liara. Seriously, if we can't save every alien races' home planet in ME3, Thessia is not high on my list for saving. (Earth, Sur'Kesh, and Kajhe are at the top.)


There is something about the Asari race *cringes* I don't like, the fact is the more I think about them the more they creep me out and is made worse that they keep make a pass at my Shepard I just what to say them "leave me alone". I swear that Liara on LotSB from the way she looks at Shepard still has thing for him/her even if you said no to her in ME1.

I share your feelings. Liara scares me on so many levels. I am fairly indifferent to her character, but I dislike the Asari people as a whole. They are touted as so much awesome, but I just don't buy it. *shrug* I know lots of people like them, but I just.....don't. My opinion, though. :innocent:


Is it possible to have a Mary Sue race? I think the Asari are it. :whistle:

Anyways, if in Mass Effect 3, Bioware is like "For those of you that stayed faithful to the VS, you get *tada* Indoctrinated Love Interest! :wizard:", I am gathering a team of angry mob types and we're going to storm into Edmonton with torches and pitchforks. I want to be rewarded for holding out for years, not punished. <_<


Can't even write those words I LI.  It would cause much violence that has nothing to do with the game.:bandit:

man im so proud of u guys. According to recent polls, Kaidan is now THE go-to Virmire survivor, not only beating Ashley by a landslide that would put galactus to shame but coming to the point where hes second place to TALI!

Ok, so I am literally playing Horizon as we speak, and in the intro cut scene, Lilith actually gets a good run going after Kaidan is frozen; she could easily be a good 100 feet away from him, maybe further, by the time she is frozen; she is also with a clump of other colonists frozen in the same small area.  It's not a lot to take comfort in, I know, but she definitely gets a lot further away from Kaidan than I had remembered.  Assuming that the Collectors quickly get distracted by Shepard's arrival groundside, I could legitimately buy that they just didn't get to him.

Another WTF??? for me was how they appeared casual... "Hiya Spanky!" I would think that they would be upset about the attack as well as shaken up by being frozen by bugs. They just seemed too casual for what just happened. Posted Image

They would tick off all the VS fans, and a lot of fans in general.  There seems to be a consensus around here that indoctrination is played out, and using it too much is the hallmark of weak writing.

If anyone would/could be indoctrinated, it would be Shepard him/herself IMO.  All that exposure to Reaper tech over the years and DLCs has to have some cumulative effect.  Not to mention the unexplained medical miracles holding Shepard together - seems to be fanon that it's Reaper tech.

Besides, Kaidan's so awesome, he'd indoctrinate the Reapers.  That's right, their plans for making a human Reaper would rely less on human goo (uh, so to speak), and more on Mordin's creative bedroom biotics literature.  :D

Possible Spoiler***

Of course its Reaper Tech.  Humanity is just not that advanced and Cerberus has no qualms about using it.  Idiots.  Not to mention all the foreshadowing in the comics and literature of it.  Now, Bioware is hinting "something" is going on with Shepard.  1.  Medical miracles are failing. 2. Medical miracles aren't failing because Sheps slowly becoming a Repear avatar.  3.  Shep's slowly being indoctrinated from over exposure to Reaper tech. 

Now, Kaidan's been running around the universe without (unprotected) you.  He cut all contact with his friends.  He blows up on Horizon like he's trying to push you away...:blink:  Hmm.  Have to think now.

O.o Hmm running with that theory sounds like Kaidan is going to shoot you in the head or make you kill yourself in the end to end. Shepard=Saren pt 2?

I just don't buy it.  Bioware has far too much riding on this game, on this trilogy; far too much to live up to.  It is at the heart a story of heroism, and noble sacrifice, and victory against all odds.  Yes, there will be pain, and loss, and sacrifices, and almost certainly a twist or two.  But I don't think they will pull the rug out from underneath us.  I don't think they can afford to, not this time, not in this game.

Exactly.  Indoctrination, if overused, will at best tick people off. 

As an aside, playing through Horizon now.  :sick:  Feel like plot-spackling for a moment.  One of the team mentioned that the people were frozen for a long time.  The Brooklyn mechanic dude was locked in his hiding spot.  That hiding spot isn't right near the turret thing, it's a good distance away.  Yet, he shows up right at the end of the fight, as does Kaidan.  So my thinking is that it's not immediately after the fight, but more like maybe 10 minutes afterward.  Reasoning: the mechanic would not have snuck around the grounds while the Collector ship is still present, and possible Collectors present.  He may have heard the ship take off, and carefully made his way in Shepard's direction.  Kaidan may have been at the other side of the settlement, got unfrozen (either the neurotoxin wore off or the ship controlled the toxin and its departure released control) and made his way to the turret.  Even if he was right next door to the turret, factor in the unfreezing and checking his surroundings.  So these could explain him being unfrozen after the fight.  Not that he was used as indoctrination-bait. 

Horizon is a wonderfully confounded piece of work.  Poor Kaidan got used as a master piece of bait (yes, I stretched to get that pun in).

Since when has that stopped them.  :? No, I think maybe the Loyalty could break the Indoctrination on both sides.  If we take into account Hale's aforementioned recording session with A/K.  Maybe our Sheps are able to talk Kaidan out of something and vice versa at the crucial moment.:wizard: ^_^ (No shooting in the head required). Of course, this is all useless speculation until March... <_<  I was going to have such a nice Holiday season, too.  *shakes fist at Bioware*

It would be nice for them to go down a different route, but they keep falling back on the Indoctrination.  Heck, for all we know, Shep's the spy who doesn't know they are a spy.  You know, eyes and ears but no actual Indoctrination.  Now that would be fustrating. :pinched:

I'm still mildly convinced that Horizon only happened the way it did because Bioware wanted to "encourage" us to play with the new toys instead... :?

"Come in reapers. This is agent Boo. Cover is blown, repeat cover is blown."
Knew he was up to something.

I wonder how the "new" Normandy will look and where the new members will be. Where on the Normandy do you guys think Kaidan will be? If they keep the kitchen like it was in ME2 Kaidan don't have his mystery terminal to fix anymore :P
