hello everyone,
so i have in mind with this thread that we take each squadmate, and talk about how they could evolve/grow or devolve/revert based on the way shep behaves - which i imagine relates mainly to paragon/renegade dialogue options.

Example:
SAMARA
Evolve: gives up being a justicar after killing Morinth, heals relationship with other daughters, maybe has LI with shep.
Devolve: provoked into opposing Shep because his actions violate the Code; onflict, maybe to the death.

JACK
Evolve: becomes a leader at the Academy, maybe has LI with shep
Devolve: gets disillusioned with the Academy, leaves it and reverts to life of crime.

... I realize that one's idea of progress is another's idea of failure, which is something I'm fine with. Im not looking for consensus, just your thoughts :)

Miranda
evolve: continues to develop her sense of compassion from consistent communication with Orianna, becomes an ideal leader organizing her own group.
devolve: Orianna's suspicion that she's being stalked leads to hostility towards Miranda after finding a few rumors here and there about Cerberus activities. Miranda continues towards a more ruthless path in whatever career field she specialized in.
(Also possibility of Cerberus executing her or attempting to)

Not the best example since it's evolving but in two different ways.

Paragon: Garrus is able to respect authority after his time with Shepard. Becomes the New Executor of C-Sec or Paragon Spectre (If renegade dialog in first game but Paragon path in second and third)

Renegade: Garrus respects only Shepard and throws all rules to the side to achieve his objectives. Becomes Spectre but a ruthless one that takes no path but his own. (Saren attitude, becomes what he despises)

Evolve: Garrus goes back to C-sec.

Devolve: Saren 2.0

Edit: Huh someone beat me to it by 8 hours... Did not notice them.

I think it's a great idea myself :)
All have many way they can evolve and many they can fall.

I personally don`t think an evolved Garrus would return to C-Sec as a new Executor. He`d be too high up the command ranks which leaves him only with more paperwork and meetings, instead of actually doing something. Garrus always felt to me like he`s too impatient with paperwork and convincing people. He`s more the kind of guy to do things and then let people decide whether it`s done well.

So an evolved (I suppose that`s a Paragon) Garrus would sound to me that he evolves to become a trainer/teacher instead, perhaps at C-Sec, perhaps in a different organisation (I personally think he`d probably found his own security company and gets his people hired for particular missions at the Citadel, for instance). He`d be happy to show new recruits the subtleness between following rules, breaking rules and bending rules in favor of getting the job done with the least casualties. He`s proven to be a good leader in ME2 as well.

Another evolved Garrus (Renegade, one might say) would probably go the Archangel-way; mercenary style to get things done. Becomes wanted and persecuted by C-Sec and the Council for causing too many problems when he acts in a sort of Robin Hood-way. He will find himself a group of other mercenaries like a sort of A-team, but more cynical and ruthless.

A devolved Garrus would probably go back to C-Sec and take up his old job. That`s just throwing all of his experience out of the window and discarding his development.

My guess is, either they get their happy closure or they die.

I'd most like to see Ashley evolve like Pressly, where he would give his life for an alien. Hope she doesn't have to do that though.
