Ahh, poor Jacob.

I actually find his romance to be satisfying. At the very least his romance is easily the most mechanically complex romance in the entire series.

Should be interesting, then... I hear Shepard gets to express her opinion on her personal state like in LotSB in that romance. I figure if Shepard can be expected to autoflirt with him, why not roll with it for once.

Any suggestions for a personal backstory for a female adept? Trying to come up with events to inform a personality to run through the story. Leaning towards either Spacer or Earthborn, Sole Survivor.

I always thought of spacer as the most sensible backstory for a biotic class Shepard. It adds to the otherworldly nature of biotics.

Honestly, that is one of the best parts about the romance. Not only that she can also express more depth about her reputation (sole survivor for me), and what it was like to be brought back to life and what she experienced while dead, and that just the stuff on one branch. All 3 of my FemSheps romance Jacob at least once on the NG+ non-import runs, and each time I've gotten completely different conversations with the guy because his romance dialogue radically branches out; ranging from dialogues that are more centered around Shepard to ones that are more Jacob centric. It's crazy the amount of depth his romance has just in terms of where it can lead or even maintaining it.

 

As for personalities, none that I can think of. I did head canon my FemShep to be naturally flirty which is why she is flirty with Jacob. I also head canoned that her reasons for dating Jacob, initially, were less than honest and that he would be much easier than Miranda to get any possible secret Cerberus information from (this was playing as an Infiltrator). I don't have a Ruthless FemShep so if you make one I would be interested in what she says about that.

Honey Shepard continues her quesst to kill all male squadmates playthrough

 

Talked to the council with no results, except the Turian mentioned something about a summit. Talk with the crewmembers and Honey will try to persue Samantha because she likes her voice. Steve was nic eto talk with and so was happy to see Adams again. She asked why Liara had all the monitors in the room and what she was doing the last 6 months. Honey ended up exchanging punched with Vega and refused to let him call her Lola. Yes she will enjoy killing him.

 

Went to Palaven's moon only to find out the Primarch is dead. Now she has to fight her way to a Turain named Victus who is now the new Primarch. Cool guy.

 

She heads back to the Citadel and talks with Ashley for a few moments and on her way out, she see's Thane. It made her blood boil. He was suppose to be dead on the suicide mission. She still can't figure out how he lived. Not only she has to find a way to kill Vega, but now now she has to find a way to kill Thane. She thought about killing him onsight, but that wouldn't look to good. After talking with him, she went to the embassy to hellp the Salarian sepctre. She was surprised to see Kasumi and she ended up helping Honey. Cool.

 

The summit took place and from there went to Sur'kesh to retrieve a female Krogan. Cerberus had to crash the party so Shepard and squad had to fight them.

 

Now she will head to Grissom Academy to see what's going on.

:lol: Too funny.

 

Finished the rachni mission on Utukku. Excluding leaving Earth at the beginning, this is only the second time in about half a dozen missions that we've faced the reapers. Who's waging this war anyway?

 

Number of reloads: 1. James tried to be as much of a badass as Wrex, but was taken down by the first ravager we encountered. Left cover to revive him, and was taken out by the same ravager. Could hear Grunt's laugh echoing through the tunnels.

 

Tried sabotage on the husks and can confirm it does work. Sabotage+Chain Overload followed by incendiary ammo bursts makes short work of them.

Responded to a distress signal on asteroid X-57, and found a band of Batarian terrorists had commandeered the asteroid and set it on a course to impact Terra Nova. I managed to shut down the engines and permanently put down the terrorist leader, but the hostages he had taken didn't make it.

Honey Shepard has done a lot since the last post.

 

She was happy to see Jack at Grissom Academy and rescue the students.

 

She went back to the Citadel and talked with Ashley, met Liara's father and realized she is the bartender from Illium, talked with Steve and met Miranda. She really wanted Miranda to come back on the ship and fight by her side, but Miranda was worried about  her sister, so she decided not to come onboard

 

Went to Tuchanka to help the Turain platoon only to find out the Primarch sent his son to recover a bomb. Interesting. She confronted the Primarch about this and he offered no information. Whatever.

 

Honey Shepard convinced Padok Wiks to sabotage the geneophage saying Wreav wants revenge and with Eve dead, there would be no one to stop him. Again she doesn't care. She is still trying to figure a way to kill James.

 

Get back to the Citadel and find out Cerberus is attacking. Why is it Cerberus this and Cerberus that? Why can't someone else be the bad guy. Again Honey doesn't care. Then she see's some guy with a butter knife ready to kill the councilor, when Thane shows up. Kill him please. Kill him please. I mean Thane. And sure enough the wanna-be Jackie Chan does stab Thane. Yes. At last success. Just to rub it in, I ask him, "How bad is it"?.

 

Out of the blue , my hero with the knife stabs my car. That sucks. I only wanted to thank him for stabbing Thane. Now I'm on foot when I run into more characters with butter knives. They should learn to use a gun. Well its their funeral. And I also have these other characters with sniper weapons. Well they suck when it comes to Honey using her lash power.

 

She confronts Ashley who stands down and shoots Udina. She wanted to shoot him in the shoulder, but his chest got in the way. Funny how that happens.

 

Kelly, aka Feliaca Hannigan, thanked  me for having her change her ID which led to her being still alive after the Coup. Talked with Ashley and let her on the ship. Good to have her back.

 

Hooked up with Samantha who used and abused me. Excellent.

 

Went to Eden Prime to recover a Prothean artifact that was found. Come to find out its a real live Prothean and its now a squadmate. If things can't get any worse. Now I have to kill 2 male squadmates instead of 1. Somebody doesn't like me.

 

Honey Shepard will now go check out some Asari Commado's that T'soni mentioned and then go talk with the Quarians.

I think that guy who walks around in circles on the crew deck of the Normandy is trying to avoid running into his commanding officer. :lol:

Usually I like to post a few screenshots as illustrations for my Shepard's adventures but ever since having the baby gamingsessions are few and far between so no such frills and fancy stuff for the time being.

Went by the asari monastery yesterday and was so happy to see Samara again. Left poor Falere down on the planet and will meet up with Samara at the Citadel later on. The reapers are doing something seriously scary with those poor asari, here's hoping that that was the last we saw off them *brrr*.

Really enjoy reading about other peoples Shepard's. Ha ha, guess I'm gaming vicariously. Have fun and enjoy your Gaming.

I decided to start another trilogy run. (Got bored of trying to make money in MP just to waste it all getting level IV ammo instead of the weapon mods I need. The RNG store is the absolute worst part of MP. I would be very surprised if BW made much money at all from MP.) I am playing an adept in ME1 for the first time. Decided to get a few more achievements: basically all the biotic achievements, plus the Soldier and Turian ally ones.

 

Arwen Shepard hails from Mindoir and became famous for surviving a Thresher Maw attack on Akuze. She just got to the Citadel and needs to go talk to some guy named Harkin. He might know where we can find this Turian we met earlier who was investigating Saren's activities. The dialogue on the Normandy with Chakwas was sorta weird considering Shepard is a biotic, but supposedly doesn't know anything about L2 implants.

 

Not sure about how this Shepard will be played. Somewhat renegade, though probably more paragon. I have already invested 3 points in intimidate. Knocked out Manuel and got all the goodies on Eden Prime by using my amazing speech skills. Shepard is going to kill Wrex. She is also going to be anti-Krogan: Grunt will stay in his tank and the cure will be sabotaged. Normally I let the Council die (seems like the logical thing to do if we are really trying to stop Sovereign) but I think I would like to save them this time just for the variety. She is going to romance Liara and stay true to her right through the beam run (assuming I get that far). I am leaning towards leaving Kaidan behind on Virmire. Shepard will do all the Cerberus related quests in ME1, but will end up conflicted about working with TIM in ME2. Her colonist background will make her lean toward helping TIM, but her Akuze background will make her very suspicious of him. I can already tell she is going to destroy the Collector Base.

 

It really bothers me that even though I have three dialogue options they all have Shepard saying the same thing. Those people complaining about auto-dialogue in ME3 should consider the fact that ME1 was filled with auto-dialogue, it was just somewhat hidden by making you use the dialogue wheel to hear it.

I'm onto Banes' trail!  Well, after accidentally shooting Jax (the krogan criminal, not to be confused with the Girl With The Prison Tattoos).  Was trying to Paragon it...

 

Those old cues!  Who'd have thought after threatening to arrest Jax, and his shock, that the proper follow up was, "Just kidding." ?  :D  You have to remember C-Sec wants him around for their purposes.  Whoops....

 

"Jax needed killing." *strained expression*

update to the Adventures of Honey Shepard and her goal of killing all male squadmates.

 

Went to the Asari monastery and found out their home to the Aradat Yakshi.  Was pleasantly surprised to see Samara who is looking for her daughters. I remember helping her kill her daughter, Morinth, back on Omega. Come to find out that the reapers are turning them into Banshee's. Too bad lash doesn't work on them. Imagine seeing a Banshee flying through the air after being lashed. After leaving Rila to die, I had to stop Samara from shooting herself so she won't have to kill her own daughter, Falere.

 

Next she meets with the Quarians only to find out they attack the Geth during a galactic invasion. I guess I shouldn't be surprised. It was nice to see Tali again. With her and Ashley, we boarded the dreadnought to disable the signal. Using lash on the machines was hilarious and Honey was having a lot of fun.  Once back on the Normandy, the machine, from the dreadnought, mentions a base on Rannoch that needs to be destroyed.

 

I go back to the Citadel and tell Miranda about Kai Leng, talk with Samara, have a drink with Steve and dance with Jack. I wish I could dance with Sam, but we have our own form a dancing between missions.

 

Went back and saved Koris with the help of Ashley and Liara. Since I'm not having any luck with killing James and Javik, I avoid taking them on any missions.

 

When fighting the reaper on Rannoch, I wanted to have James and Javik with me so reaper would shoot them instead of me. I have nothing against the reaper's, I just want those 2 dead. The Quarians are saved and the machine went stupid on me. Why is everyone/everything wanting to kill me? Why can't they just kill James and Javik?

 

Saw Ashley on the floor drunk. I should get some lipstick and doodle all over her face. Maybe later.

 

Went back to the Citadel and talked with the Counilor who told me about some artifact. Like I really care when I have my own problems. Whatever. I talked with Liara, Tali and Ashley. Miranda confessed about wanting to put a control chip in me. That gave me an idea. I went to Sam to see if she could rig James and Javik's communicators for their heads to explode. She laughed and said it would take time for her to do it. For now I'm on my own.

 

Went to Thessia where I met my hero, Kai Leng, who was nice enough to kill Thane for me on the Citadel. He beats me in a fight, no thanks to the gunship. I don't care he took the data, I cared that I lost an opportunity that I could've had James or Javik killed had I brought one of them on the mission. This is my story. Mine mine mine. I'm such a baby.

 

I take Liara and Ashley with me to Horizon to see what's going on. Right off the bat I run into the little kids with the butter knives. Who I'm I to stop them from giving them the death they want? Find out Cerberus is turning humans into husks. Thats not cool. For now, I have my own problems. After defeating all the uglies, I meet Miranda's father. What a wimp hiding behind Oriana like that. I shoot Oriana in the leg and Miranda throws the trash out the window. Man. I could really use her on my squad. Miranda was able to plant a tracer on Leng. Excellent. Still like to thank him and then kill him.

 

Back on the ship, Samantha is upset and sad at what Cerberus did on Horizon. It was her home. Now my blood is boiling. My lover is upset and that makes me very mad. So I tell the crew, minus Javik and James, that our primary focus is killing Cerberus. For the time being J and J, can live until further notice. 

 

Honey will attack Chronos later today.

Arwen Shepard had a very busy day on the Citadel.

 

She stopped a Turian general and an Elcor diplomat from spreading lies about the Consort. She was rewarded with a roll in the hay with the Consort, no appointment necessary. She ran into a Salarian who was developing a system to cheat at Quasar and offered to help him. She then turned in the machine to Doran. When she gets back to Flux after visiting Feros she hopes to have some dances with the Volus. He does a wicked Mackaraima. She got some naive girl working for C-Sec at Chora's den to return to Flux and signed an autograph for some fan named Conrad. Maybe those two should get together someday. She also scanned a bunch of keepers for a Salarian she met in the Council Chambers. Turns out the Asari and Salarians have known about the Citadel for 2000 years but have never bothered to figure out how it works. Instead, they just leave it to these bugs to run things. Sounds dangerous to me. Before she got done scanning all the keepers she had to patch things up between a Volus and the Salarian, otherwise she wouldn't get paid.

 

She found that dirt bag Harkin after being ambushed by some assassins. He told us where to find the Turian who was investigating Saren. When we got to the clinic he mentioned, some doctor was briefly held hostage by some thugs. The Turian shot the thug holding the doctor and Shepard's squad killed the others. Shepard was none too pleased with the Turian and told him he could have shot the hostage.

 

The thugs were working with the owner of Chora's Den, some guy named Fist. Apparently, he used to work for the Shadow Broker, but now works for Saren. The doctor told us Saren wanted some Quarian killed because she might have evidence linking Saren with the Geth. So Ashley and Shepard, now accompanied by the Turian, who is called Garrus, headed to Chora's Den to confront Fist. Apparently he knew we were coming (a bug in the doctor's office?) because when we got there there was a small army of thugs waiting for us. After killing them all we confronted Fist who told as where to find the Quarian. We then rushed off to save the Quarian, or at least get the evidence she had. After killing another small army of bad guys (anybody who shoots at Shepard instantly gets labeled a bad guy, even if they are actually good guys) we saved the Quarian and took her to the embassy. Her name is Tali and she is now ensconced in the engineering section of the Normandy.

 

Once we presented the Council with the Quarian's evidence they kicked him out of the Spectres. Somehow a voice recording with a totally unknown provenance counts as irrefutable proof. The rules of evidence in Council Space seem quite odd. I guess I shouldn't complain, but one wonders if these guys know about faking a voice print?

 

That still left the problem of finding and stopping Saren. The Council didn't like the Ambassador's idea of sending a fleet into the Traverse to search for one guy, so they agreed to make Shepard a Spectre and send her after Saren. The title is nice, I suppose, but I would have preferred a set of Colossus armor and some Spectre weapons. Oh well, I guess we will get those later.

 

After handing over some data files relating to Fist to a reporter, Shepard headed to the Normandy where she found out the ship is now hers. Cool. Time for the interstellar equivalent of street racing! Oh, and we have to search for Saren to make daddy happy. Wouldn't want him to take away the keys to our fancy new ride. Being a colony kid, Shepard decided to make Feros her first stop. With luck she may be able to save the colony. She wouldn't want to see a repeat of what happened on Mindoir.

 

On the way to the Normandy we ran into a Krogan named Wrex who was hired by the Shadow Broker to kill Fist. He gave us the money from his contract, since we had already done his job, and asked to come along. Arwen wasn't too sure about that, but decided he might be of some use. We will see.

Today the squad rescued some civilians on Benning. Went down for the count twice while hunting for Ambassador Osoba's kid's dogtags in the rubble. Those soldiers back at Purgatory better buy me a round. Found some civilians and told them to stay low while I took care of things. Should've followed my own advice. Didn't. EDI, Garrus and I got swarmed. I mean swarmed. Where does TIM get all these guys? Total number of reloads on the mission: 4. Can still hear Grunt laughing. Maybe later when we meet up on the Citadel I'll let him spend the night in the drunk tank. Spicy noodles my ass.  

 

Later I did a quick tour of the Normandy. James bugged Cortez about how often he gets shot at. James is a funny guy. I started to laugh along with him, and then Cortez mentioned he'd never been shot down. I left the room.

 

Engineer Adams, Ken and Gabby talked me into getting them a GX12 thermal pipe next time I'm on the citadel. Pile it on guys, don't go shopping for yourselves or anything while we're there. Oh well, I'd hate to see them get vented. Ken still owes me money from the last time we played Skyllian Five.

 

Traynor and I talked about how much fun she has playing chess. Maybe I can get her to switch sides. Just for a bit. Nah, Miranda would kill me. 

 

Liara showed me the time capsule she's putting together. I think she thinks we're not going to win this. I guess being bombarded all day by reports from her agents about all the death and destruction across the galaxy is getting to her. I want to tell her to have faith, and then I hear Grunt laugh at me again. Sigh.

 

 Up next: Tuchanka. It seems Cerberus is getting into mischief. Big surprise. Here we go round the merry-go-round.

Landed on Eden Prime and stopped a guy called Saren from destroying the colony.

I wonder what he's up to.

Arwen Shepard headed out from the Citadel to the Attican Beta cluster to try to save the colony on Feros and hopefully find Saren. Before landing on Feros, however, Admiral Hackett called to say that the Alliance had lost a probe on the planet Elatania and that the Geth were looking for it. We couldn't have that, so we landed on the planet to try to get to the probe first. When we found it we also found out some monkeys had stolen the memory core, so we had to search a bunch of monkey colonies on the planet to find it. We finally found the klepto-monkey and then were attacked by some Geth.

 

When we got to Feros we found the colonists were still holding out against the Geth. A plucky bunch, although they did act a bit strange. After taking care of some mundane issues like food, water and power, we headed over to the Geth base to deal with them. We destroyed the Geth ship and found out about some plant that was controlling the colonists at Zhu's Hope. That may have been why Saren and the Geth attacked Feros. So we headed back to Zhu's Hope, killing that butt-head Jeong on the way, to deal with the plant. Arwen ordered her squad not to shoot the colonists and used a herbicide to knock them out. Not the best advertising for Ortho lawn and garden products. After going through the most strenuous job of weeding ever, Shepard met an Asari named Shiala who explained why the plant was so important to Saren. Turns out it was alive while the Protheans lived on the planet and knew all about them, including how they talked. That knowledge was what Saren wanted so he could understand the message of the Beacon back on Eden Prime. Shiala gave Shepard that same knowledge, though it didn't seem to help any. For some reason when Shepard tried to arrest Shiala and take her into custody, she couldn't carry through. So she decided to let Shiala stay on Feros and help the colonists rebuild. She suspects some form of Asari mind control, though it certainly is strange that she didn't seem to have a problem pulling out her gun and pointing it at Shiala as if she was going to kill her. Mind control that won't let her arrest the girl, but will let her kill her? Weird.

 

Garrus proved to be a real jerk the entire time. He wouldn't follow Shepard around, and then when he did show up, he would charge straight at the enemy even though Shepard ordered him to hold back. Arwen was particularly mad when he would take her kills, since she was trying to practice her Warp and Singularity skills. Garrus kept switching to his pistol, too, even though Shepard had given him a decent assault rifle. Ashley, OTOH, proved to be a good little trooper, always sticking by Shepard's side and only once switching to an inferior weapon. Although, to be honest, she did get herself killed once. Ah, the wonders of medi-gel!

 

After finishing our work on Feros, Arwen briefed the Council and ended up hanging up on them when they acted like jerks. We then headed back to the Citadel to restock and refit. While there Shepard was interviewed by a reporter named Khalisa bint Sihn al-Jilani and had an Admiral Mikhailovich insist on inspecting the Normandy. Arwen's superior speech skills got her through both confrontations just fine. Shepard also convinced a big, stupid jellyfish to buy an evangelical permit and told a grieving husband that his wife could still serve the Alliance and save lives by allowing the military to run tests on her corpse. She then intervened in a dispute between a pregnant woman and her brother-in-law, telling the brother-in-law it was the mother's decision on how best to care for the child. We also met a kindly old crime-lord who wanted her old associates killed. We agreed to help her out. Arwen is not a big fan of organized crime, but she is even less pleased with people who run slavery operations. She also felt that having good relations with a crime-lord or two might prove useful in the future. With their connections, who knows what kind of useful intelligence they could provide? Arwen also ran into Conrad again, who took a picture of her. She went to visit the medical clinic and found out the doctor she had met before was being blackmailed. She offered to help the doctor out by threatening the blackmailer with death.

 

After all this work Arwen headed to Flux where she danced the night away with Doran. Too bad Doran is so short. Arwen would have liked to Tango.

 

Before heading back out to hunt for Saren, Shepard received a request to help a girl who was captured on Mindoir during the same raid where Arwen lost her parents. The girl, Talitha, was threatening to commit suicide. Shepard convinced her to take a sedative and get some help.

 

After leaving the Citadel, Admiral Hackett called again to tell us another machine had gone nuts and turned on its creators. This time the machine was on the moon and ran the Alliance training facility there. So we went there and killed this new iteration of Skynet. At least it didn't look like Arnold this time.

 

Our next destination is the Armstrong Cluster. Kaidan recommended going to find this Asari scientist named Liara T'Soni in the Artemis Tau Cluster, but Shepard has some solid intelligence from a Geth terminal she hacked on Feros that the Geth are planning an invasion of the Armstrong Cluster. That seems as if it would be more likely to lead to Saren than finding some archeologist.

Tianshi Shepard, a mixed race human male Infiltrator with green eyes (first custom maleshep, people ;)) did a whole lot of stuff on the Citadel.

 

First he headed out to Chora's Den to talk to some slacker named Harkin. Guy turned out to be an ass, but he did point me to Garrus who I needed to expose Saren. Garrus is a Turian though, and Tianshi doesn't like Turians that much (an effect of being raised in alliance spaceships just after the first contact war), so he didn't move out to pick up Garrus straight away. He remembered Anderson talking about Barla Vonn, so that was the next step. Turned out the information Barla Vonn had for me was free.. and I had already seen the Krogan in question before talking to Harkin: Wrex.

 

Next stop: C-Sec. Wrex was recruited quite quickly, but didn't get a place in the main squad. Tianshi prefers to work with Alliance personnel (but is not pro-Human), so the team stayed the same for now (Tianshi, Kaidan, Ashley). Ashley and Wrex mentioned this Turian Garrus again though, so it was time to look him up. After an easy firefight, with a great shot by Garrus in the initial confusion, Tianshi reluctantly recruited the Turian, but not after telling him he still doesn't trust him. There were talks of some Quarian with data on Saren that she tried to sell to Fist for safety.. this is what they were looking for!

 

Again Tianshi found himself in that dump called Chora's Den, where now there were lots of armed men waiting for him. (the real me at this point re-realized why I always picked Assault Rifle bonus power. That fight takes forever without it, and Kaidan being the only biotic doesn't help much either... I actually died :huh: ). After a long firefight I finally reached Fist, who, after telling Tianshi where the Quarian with the data on Saren was, begged me like a baby to let him live. His reasoning was sound though; being pretty much dead already as he's now being hunted by the Shadow Broker, so Tianshi let him go.

 

They rushed to save the Quarian, who was glad to help out in their quest and joined the Squad.

 

 

 

And then Tianshi had a very, very nice encounter with Shai'ira. He can't wait to find himself a nice Asari squadmate...
