They all have a sort of underwater effect to their voices, Which is why I was surprised that they live on a natually dry planet. Thane was supposed to be my mythological equivilant to a merman. But Alas, it was not to be. Apparently living in the Hanars oceans is actually killing him. Bastards.  


If Thane had been able to stay in the environmentaly controlled areas he would be fine. I'm guessing his job took him all over Kahje.

His employers were Hanar as well. And he mentions how he kept in close contact with them. It seems that he established his reputation on Kahje first before spreading out across the galaxy. And yes, I always thought it was a rumbly underwater kind of tone to his voice as well.

I also "married" an Argonian in Skyrim because he reminded me of Thane:wub:

Who and where in Skyrim is this Thanesque Argonian? I want to meet him! :D

Is he the one at the Bee and Barb? :huh:


Each Argonian in Skyrim has the same voice, which to me sounds like Budget Garrus. Worlds better than the Oblivion Argonian voice, but still.... half the time I just want them to say the word "calibrations" so I can see exactly how similar it is.

I also considered "marrying" Scouts-Many-Marshes for pretty much the same reason, but ended up with Onmund, an apprentice at the mage's college. (I'm the arch-mage...that... that seems a little....off somehow.) He's got a gigantic ape-jaw, but he makes awesome apple pie.

...and the argonian at the bee and barb will not leave me alone. I'm in there, minding my own business and trying to change the business ledger... and he follows me. EVERYWHERE.

Also, an Argonian assassin from the Dark Brotherhood saved my behind once. Ah, Veezara. Awesome dude.

Now back to our regularly-scheduled Thane programming.

I don't really like the new Argonian VA's. It sounds like they had one to many cigars.:P
I also planned on marrying him too, since he is the only Argonian, but I decied when I make an Argonian I will marry him, I ended up getting married too Farkas from the Companions.
Omggg I loved Veezara! He reminded me of Thane more than Scouts Many Marshes. I was ended up crying at the end of the Dark Brotherhood. I was like "NOOO THANE! Wait no! VEEZARA!!!":wub:

Ah..it seems the wonderful Thane sweeps into my mind in games :blush:

Has anyone got any screenies of an Argonian they made who looks like Thane? I tried, but it seems I can't make it look like him at all. I can't even get the colouring right ><

Ok I'm 80 hours into Skyrim and don't find any of the Argonians even remotely remind me of Thane - I must be the only one!!
I'm married to an Imperial guy - mostly by accident.

And as for the alien thing, I always found Thane attractive - it's those eyes I think. And then he spoke and I was a goner.

I'm not a fan of the turian "look" especially as they look so "hinged at the hip" like a toy. And Garrus is my Shep's BFF so she just couldn't see him that way.

I meant to go grab the two other Argonians in a screenshot but I didn't have enough time. Later this afternoon, I can go look for them.

They're much more Garrus than Thane, I find. But they're lizardmen, so, hey. Veezara is the closest thing to Thane you're gonna find in Skyrim, and he's still worlds apart.

...Off topic: My dark brotherhood questline is borked, I'm one of the few who ran into the freezing in Death Incarnate, when the Night Mother says "sleep" and the screen goes black... it doesn't come back. (I suppose it's rather creepily appropriate.) SO I DON'T KNOW WHO TO BE PISSED AT. well, I think I do, but... I'm not sure. 

As for finding Thane attractive, I'm all about the voice. (well, about 70%. then it's 30% the actual character) I mean, Feron has pretty much the same face, except someone went crazy with the paint colors...and... yeah, no. If Thane had've kept the voice he had here, while I'd still love him to pieces I'd be about half the fan I am now. I can certainly see that they intended to make a "handsome" character, and, I must admit, some shots, I just go "D'awwwwww," overall, I'm more attracted to the character than the face. He could have been a batarian and I'd still like him.

I actually don't view Thane (and Garrus, and Grunt/Wrex) as "aliens." Yes, yes, I know they ARE, but.. see, I dislike science-fiction. Love fantasy. Drell, Turians and Krogan could easily be plunked into a fantasy world and nobody would dispute that they belonged there. (well, take away their futuristic armor and guns first.) Look at Skyrim. Lizardmen. Cat people. They'd fit right in there. The only real "aliens" for me in ME are the Salarians, as they're the closest to the commonly "accepted" version of an alien. Not a fan of the Salarians. Sure, it's a horrid reason why, (I can't hate Mordin, though) but there it is.

Before you ask "if you don't like Sci-fi, why are you playing and enjoying Mass Effect?" I'll say this. While I was pretty much forced to play it initially (and at the beginning hated the setting so much, I stopped several times) I was told to "forget" it was sci-fi. Well, i tried, but couldn't, but it didn't matter. While I didn't get as enraptured by the story and characters as I did in DA:O, there was just enough of "well, I'll just see what happens next.." to eventually pull me in.

ME2 dug its claws into me in like three seconds. 

And yet I still can't bear to watch anything with "Star" or "Space" in the title. I've tried. I did however watch  Santa Claus Conquers the Martians the other day...

Personally, I think Veezara is the most like Thane. He just has that... feel. I can't explain it.

That is a funny shot of Talen-Jei's eyes. But I think his colouring looks more like Thane's. Especially with the neck thing. Although Veezara is a fighter and not an innkeeper. So maybe his armour helps.

Drell are, of course, better looking than Argonians though ;) And they are more desert dwelling as opposed to water dwelling like Argonians.

Yup, that's the face I get when trying to steal from him. He's gotten tired of telling me to "just get out of here," he just gives me that disappointed/frustrated look as if to say "you AGAIN? I have NOTHING LEFT!"

Then he turns around and I pickpocket him. Yay for  2 gold and Black Briar Mead that's been sitting in his back pocket!

I can. He's a lizardman assassin in leather. Image IPB

Im so torn, I am running another Femshep and I want to romance Garrus and Thane. I wonder if it will work to just branch it off with saves. Don't know when a good spot to do that would be. If you are flirting with both will one confront you like in DA:O?

I think you can do both up to a certain point, but eventually you will have to choose.
I know if you romance more than one Garrus tells you he doesn't want to be in some stupid love triangle. I'm not sure what Thane says.

Ah, feels good to be back here in the thread after a day! :)
On Topic of the Argonians: It is such a shame that Veezara dies though. Like I said yesterday, I got so much of the Thane vibe from him I practically squeeled "NOOO THANE! Wait thats not right... VEEZARA!!"
I felt 3 emotions hit me in less than 5 seconds.
1st Emotion; Ashamed of yelling Thane
2nd Laughing at myself for yelling Thane when Veezara is right there dead (Sorry for spoiler!)
3. Crying cause I lost a Argonian, who reminded me of Thane. And I really liked him too.

On topic of Thane: @Fleshdress
No, I don't think they will walk up too you and say anything, just when you talk with them they'll either make a comment or tell you , you need to pick. Of course a while back I was in your position, I couldn't help but pick Thane ^.^
Ah... there's my Thane love tingling again. c:

Do they stop talking to you until you choose?

I think when you talk with Garrus/Thane, and they talk to you about it, I think thats when they stop talking to you (if they do), until you break up with who ever.

I know what Garrus says, but I don't know what Thane says about being in a love triangle. I can't seem to find it on youtube either.
Do they say anything if you do choose one of them?

Hm..no... I don't know what Thane says, it's probably similar too his lines when you tell him you can't love a dying man.
I never have the heart too turn down Thane anyways.:wub:

Jacob calls Garrus a cuttlebone!! Sooo Mad. I mean I didn't really find him interesting before but now he sneers at my Thane and my Garrus. *Seethes*

Can't find what Thane says if there is a love triangle either. May have to save and then see then redo. I can't even think about it right now... while looking for it I ran across the breaking up with Thane video and.. omg, omg. *sobs* I will never, ever break up with you Thane! Ever.

I can't turn him down either. That's why when I did my Garrus romance playthrough and my loyal to Kaidan playthrough I had to almost avoid talking to Thane. I only talk to him to a certain point and then I stop. I also don't like the idea of him being in love with Shepard and her not returning those feelings. In my head if I don't talk to him he never falls in love with you.

Of course that didn't seem to work with Liara. No matter what you do she seems to love you.

I did that once to see what would happen and quickly reloaded. Shepard just sounds silly to me. She gets his hopes up, and he already in love with you at that point too. Then she deciedes it's too much. He just looks so sad and crushed.

I also hate the one where she says she can't replace his wife, but I do love Thanes answer to her when she says this.

Yes indeed that is sad. Too me its like.. silly. Makes me want to jump through my t.v. screen, and have a walk on the stars with Shepard. :devil:
Its like she said in the beginning of the game when your talking with Jacob "I don't like being played for a sucker."
EXACTLY HOW THANE FEELS!!!!
......:?
Excuse that..;)

And what does Thane say?! :o:happy:
