That is true. But I don't see why the Alliance wouldn't allow him to be around Shepard. Do they have something against Drell? Or is it just Thane himself since he is an assassain?

If I had to guess, I'd say it's because the trial might be a strictly "human matter". At least, that's something you'd expect the Alliance to do.

Or, they simply want Shepard alone.

I would hope they wouldn't have anything against the Drell. There aren't enough of them to be any kind of a threat. If they did have a problem it would be because he is an assasin. During the trial maybe only memebers of the Alliance would be allowed at the trial.

If he isn't there maybe it is because he is getting some kind of treatment. Maybe he is spending time with Kolyat. I just can't think of any reason why he wouldn't be there if he isn't. I guess we will have to wait until the game comes out to see if he is with you or not. If not I hope they give a good reason and not something that doesn't make any sense.

Geez miss a day and miss a lot!!!

I agree that I don't think Thane will be in awful condition - perhaps not fighting condition but not too worn down. And I hope hope hope that there is some kind of treatment/cure for him!

I'd also like to find him lying in bed....*wicked grin*

I doubt he'd stray from from Shepard either - she's helped him so much and if not for them, then at least for his son to show that he's amending all his "wrongs" by doing good deeds now!

@ Fiery a couple of pages ago...those lines from Thane are just gut wrenching.

I know! He is almost suicidal. It truly takes an extraordinary person to go through all that and still be willing to do good.

Compare that to the opposite, that is to say, successfully completing Thane's loyalty mission and romancing him. Two completely different versions of the same one character. I find this nothing short of fascinating.

By that same tolken you could say Tali's only unique because of her weak immue system. So Thane dies because someone saw fit to build him with a terminal illness (in addition to his already tragic and troubled past), but every other LI lives happily ever after? Why is Thane the one that gets singled out? Just saying SOMEONE needs to suffer isn't good enough.

I said that Thane's illness is 'part' of what makes him unique - as is his soft sexy voice, and his olde worlde gentleman manners    I don't think every LI should live happily ever after either...  though I suppose I am biased against the whole HEA thing.    It's not that someone needs to suffer either - more that no suffering would be unlikely in the extreme.  Shep finding a cure for Thane would be cool, except for the fact that we are playing a game about the possibe extinction / perfection of every species in the Milky Way.  Possibly as a side quest...  Though I can't see Thane being happy about Shep taking time away from saving the galaxy to cure one person - especially if that person is himself.

Im interesting how early we will meet Thane in game, and if he will be companion or just play NPC role i.e like Mordin, we saw in demo. For sure, one of the earliest companions will be VS ( Kaidan in my case) and Vega probably, while they are on Normandy, when Shepard and Anderson try to escape from Earth. We saw also Liara and Garrus in demo ( but don't know how early in game this mission will be). For me the best would be if Thane will be perma companion and we will meet him as early in game as possible I know, that Devs said, that some of companions would be NPCs this time, also, that companions will work differently this time ( whatever it means), but I hope, that LIs will have bigger role than VS in ME2 on Horizon. From other hand, Im affraid about ME2 LIs, while BioWare is focused so badly ( in my opinion) on VS and his/her role in next game, including theirs relationship with Shepard. Of course, I understand, that VS fans wants something more after this " Horizon" dissapointment , but ME2 LIs fans needs some love too....


BTW  I like to listen this song when romancing with Thane

Just dropping a little art in here for the most soulful character in the game:

If you cure Thane, you cure his species.

Thane's life won't be perfect if he gets better.  In fact he's going to have quite a bit of "making up" to do if he does.

@Fiery
You make a great point.  Whether or not you complete Thane's loyalty mission really affects his outlook.  I'm hoping this will play a role in ME3, regardless of romance.  I don't think it would be very fair if only Shepards romancing Thane get a chance to keep him.

@51ha
Thanks for clearing up the time line thing, but still.  Perhaps that has something to do with the timing of Thane's recruitment mission? 

[Verly]

stopping by to share my latest fanart. This is Thane and my femshep Penny. I've actually just bought the first Mass Effect game. so this version of Penny does not exist right now. She is still Thane's girl...she just hasn't bet him yet.

How wonderful . You dont see many people dropping by and leaving stuff like this anymore .

You're very welcome, I'm glad you enjoyed it

[Asenza]

So I was watching that Thane Krios: Futuristic Lover video and this one image just struck me: when Thane kills Nassana, and her body kinda falls forward against him, he cringes. You can see it in his face. So expressive.

*sigh* Anyone else had other moments where they saw Thane in a particular way and it reallly appealed to them?

After your femshep admits attraction to Thane and he talks to her about that first assignment. about how she was interesting to him and he had to know who this woman was. He had what I saw as a more, I guess you would call it, predatory look in his eyes. Not to hurt, but to claim as his...his Siha.

Oh I get it. There was also that intenseness to his voice when he said, "I had to reach her first." For me also, if you watch his face when he says, "I must confess I've come to care for you" he blinks as he says it but really really slowly. And he pauses slightly, "I must confess I've... come to care for you." That+plus the slow motion blink is just sooo.... Thane!

I agree about the voice. He sounds almost excited when he talks about how she was pushing him and challenging him. I do love Thanes recruitment mission.

I love when he tells Shepard he cares about her. It's so sweet. I also love the holding hands after.  I did pick the other option about not replacing his wife just to see what would happen. I reloaded that very quickly. I felt so bad for him after.

 re: Thane's absence at trial.  I'm sure that if he's not around that it would have been something that they arranged before hand.  If the welcome from the alliance was going to be hostile and there was any  risk of Thane (or any ME2 squad) being arrested, staying clear would be the wise choice.

I think that he'll be with Kolyat, and I hope that he has gained access to an effective treatment  in the mean time so that his illness is no longer terminal.  I would prefer this to having a side mission of this type during a galactic war.
The ME2 team could have a plan in place to bust Shepard out if he/she is convicted and imprisoned.

@RCG_Ines - I don't think Bioware will do 'a horizon' with any of the ME2 LIs, I'm sure that they will be working on the assumption that a large proportion of the players have never played the first game   and care nothing for the VS, and little for Liara when compared to the ME2 squad.  They owe a satisfactory ending to all the ME fans not just those who have played both games (I have played both games btw )

@Asenza  for me, Thane is just so well done ...design, personality, manner, expression, and ,of course, that voice... all his screen time appeals to me, he's such a great character...sorry, not a very helpful response:D

At the end of the "dance crazy" conversation, he talks about Kolyat trying to get his attention, and then he says with such pain, such regret, "I don't... look at him,"

That expression was just.... dear GAWD WHERE'S THE PARAGON INTERRUPT HUG?! Tali got one!

Paragon interrupt hugs for ME3. For everyone.

I second that!  All of the above mentioned scenes are great - but which ones aren't when Thane's in them??

I really like the look on his face when he says "a start?...that's intriguing" - that hint of a smile, and those big eyes...and he's looking up at her - dreamy!!

Call me pesimistic, but I hadn't too much hope in Thane developing for ME3. At last I try to not have it. Why? Becouse a few things. First thing is, that we will get new companions again. Well at last we know one-Vega, and it looks like for now he is No. one for BioWare. Second thing is a feeling, that BioWare is heavy focused on VS. They are talking about " cheating" things a lot, about Kaidan/Ash importance in ME3, that theirs relationship with Shepard will have heavy impact on story...I know, maybe it's becouse  Horizon mistake, but it still worry me. Third thing is, that when we started to talk about companions from ME2 in ME3, BioWare told us, that now companions will work differently than usual, so maybe all of them but Garrus will be only available for certain part of game. Will BioWare find a time between developing new companions ( and new LI, becouse we will have it) , s/s romances, Kaidan/Ash issues make less popular characters come back in really epic fashion? I want so badly be wrong, and Im still waiting for any news about Thane..but still without reason ( similar to Jacob, Miranda, Tali, Jack fans)

About favourite scene with Thane..hmm...I can't really choose this one. I like theirs first meeting in Nassana Tower, love his loyality mission, the way he is talking to Koylat, all those emotions in his voice, small gestures like holding Shepard hand and a lot of more.

TBH, I like Kaidan very much, and he almost always was my Shepard Li ( once I try to romance with Liara, but I don't feel comfortable with s/s romances). Before ME2 I was SURE that he will be my Shepard's LI forever, even if I knew, he will be not companion in this part of game. Unfortunetly for Kaidan there was Thane. I still like a lot Kaidan, but Thane is better LI for my Shepards...( it was hard as hell to stay loyal to Kaidan even only once in game with my main Shep.),

You still have to remember that not everyone romanced Kaidan or Ashley, and we know at least one of them is dead in everyones playthrough. Out of all of my playthroughs I only romanced Kaidan once, and Ashley is dead in all of them. They also are not the most popular characters in the game. Why would bioware give them so much focus. What about Tali and Garrus who are the most popular characters. There fans are going to be very upset if they get less content. Especially Garrus who didn't have much in ME2. If anyone were to get more contant it would probably be Liara. She is the only one who can't die, and she's biowares favorite. I wouldn't even worry about cheating. If LotSB is any indication it probably won't amount to much.
