My Shep's a Spectre. No, Alliance, Cerberus or else. He's on his own, trying to do the best for everyone.

My main Shep's loyalty lies with the Alliance I wasn't too fond of working with Cerberus to begin with.

I fear the Paragon route in ME3 will equal the 'kissing Alliance a**' route. I always play full Paragon on my canon Shep, but I really don't think it's 'Paragon' for a Spectre to put loyalty to their own species over others. The minute my Shepard became a Spectre she became responsible for more than just humanity's well-being and interests. :/

Did you miss the part early on in the game when you learn that shortly after Shepard's death, he's verbally sh!t on by the Alliance, they call him a complete idiot, etc? They can still trust me, though. They can trust that I'll renegade punch Hackett if I get the chance.

My Shepard will go freelance.

Screw Alliance, screw Council and screw Cerberus.

Why Hackett?

He and Anderson are only one that helped you in ME2.

This, and --

Alliance can trust my Shepard, but I'm not sure my Shepard can fully trust Alliance.

My Paragon reclaimed Spectre status, so he is with Council now. If Alliance somehow manage to take it, they'd better not hope that he'll join them after that. I can see awesome situation here: Alliance ship and crew, at least two Alliance officers and one of them is a Spectre and all they submit to the civilian.
I hope in ME3 Paragons won't join Alliance with happy eyes just because Alliance is supposed to be "good guys". Bioware, how about six dialog options? Paragon resign/not resign and so on.

My spacer Shep is an Alliance girl through and through. She despised working for Cerberus, she even thought the Spectres were a bit shady.

My colonist Shep joined the Alliance because they saved her life, if she manages to stop the Reapers she'll consider her debt paid in full. She loved being a Spectre because she had more freedom to get the job done however she saw fit. She was wary of Cerberus but couldn't argue that they got results. She'd find it difficult to go back to the rules, red tape and politics of the Alliance.

Silly politicians and their labels. Saving the galaxy is the priority here.

My Shepard "represents humanity" simply because she is human in her primary role of a Spectre.

Her loyalty now is to the Council and not the Alliance. Doesn't mean she forgets her roots though and she was happy to help Hackett and the Alliance out from time to time.


Although this depends again really on Bioware recognising Spectre status in ME3.

Loyal to the Council?



Are you sure you picked real word?

I'm a Spectre. I justify joining/working with Cerberus, because it ensures galatic safety/stability by fighting the Reapers/Collectors. After the war, I will continue to be a Spectre. It is a dream job. Work alone or with a small team. Command my own ship and crew. Dangerous and critical mission assignments. Save the galaxy. Etc.

However I'm human, and I care about humanity. It won't negativly impact my job as a Spectre, but if Hackett or Anderson needed help with something I would give them my ear.

Well some Shepard's see their new job as something bigger then the Alliance B)   

The Council may be idiot politicians, but the role she has as a Spectre means she answers directly to the Council now and not the Alliance.   You have to be loyal to your bosses else they will fire your ass!    Or in the Council's case, get someone to come kill you which is worse!

:P

She does her job, that's what mostly matters but she never burns bridges (well, except Cerberus...)

Yeah. My Shep always saw working for the Spectres, and for Cerberus, as an opportunity to further Alliance interests without dirtying their hands.

Not that my Shepard is happy about being their cat's paw - working with terrorists, wiping out batarian colonies, and being scapegoated in a show trial isn't exactly the expected career path - but ever since Torfan my Shepard's been willing to do whatever it takes.

Why should the Alliance have Shepard's support, when they had no trouble selling him/her out when they no longer needed him/her? Naturally, my Shepards will all have different reactions, but the previous sentence will be a prevailing thought.

If possible in ME3,
My Shepard will try to manage to kill all the "topdogs" of the council, alliance and other high politicians, then say "screw you guys" and she flys of with Liara making a lot of blue babys or other fitting LI and spending the life she wanted to.
In few words, all my Shepards are just freelancers with different supporters in each ME.
If you ****** Shepard off, you get your payback.
As he told to Udina after Shepard got grounded:
"Nobody stabs my back, Udina. Nobody!!

My Shep is a spacer, youngest to be awarded the Star of Tarra, the first human Spectre, she's been the Alliance's golden girl since Elysium and she believed in everything the Alliance stood for. Then ME2 tore the blinkers from her eyes. Cerberus were a means to an end. She did what a good Spectre does and used what was at her disposal to eliminate a threat. To use a TV Tropes term ME2 bullied the dragon

The council are just as self-serving and political but she never expected anything better from them.

She'll work with the Alliance because she's practical but never again will she work for them. Freelance all the way.

After the theft of the original Normandy and having to become Failberus janitor for failed experiments my Shepards relations with the Alliance are understandably rather strained. But they care mature enough to swallow their pride and work with the Alliance since it is necesary to have someone big and strong to back them up. But practicaly little has changed since ME1, Shepard is still first and foremost a spectre who are trying to prove the existence of the reapers to the people of the galaxy. Shepards job is still to protect everyone as much he can and this has not changed.

I have a sneaking suspicion that everyone's Shepard still considers them Alliance... even if the player doesn't want them to.

Just one of those rare 'Shepard is X' sort of things.

I'd like to think that my Shepard's fall into a "cautiously Alliance" stance.
They want to kill the Reapers.
They know the Council (I usually let them live) will be worse than useless.
So The Alliance is pretty much all they've got.

Part of the job is accepting you are expendable.

My Shep isnt with the Alliance or Cerberus. He took his Spectre status back because it gives him free reign in council space. He is essentially a rouge spectre, with no allegience to any particular faction. If the option came up to side with Cerberus or the Alliance though, he would chose Cerberus. If anyone is going to stop the reapers it will be Cerberus, the Alliance already proved that they dont care about human colonies out in the terminus. Well, I say Cerberus, but I mean that Shep would ally himself with the Illusive Man.
