 AHHHH, that's the picture of him when he looks at Shepard for the first time! I swear to god, the first time I played that moment I felt that look was full of tension! It's one of the reasons that made me think he'd be a love interest, when I discovered there were love interests in ME1.

Wich brings me to my next question, though I'm specially interested on the answers of those who started playing ME without any prior knowledge of the universe. I started like that, because the game wasn't mine, and I started playing last year (february 2009!).

What were your impressions when you first saw Nihilus? I mean this question assuming most of you have a special interest in Turians, but even if you're only interested in Garrus, feel free to answer.

I ask because from the first moment I saw him in the Normandy, I felt intrigued and mesmerized. I remember asking my older brother "Umm, is that a guy with a mask, or an alien?" =D I knew I would like them. Was it the voice? Was it the body? Was it their mask-like faces? Only thing I know is, one week later I was head over heels in love with Garrus. But I feel I must add, it's not because he's a Turian. It's because he is Garrus.

I'm curious. What were your first thoughts?

Exactly! I was still so upset because of what happened to Nihlus. I almost wanted to stop playing the game, that's how upset and over-the-top whiny I was at the time! I thought "If an awesome character like that dies, then...grrr*" and then Garrus showed up with his strange future-monocle thing and I was like "Please let him be an important character of some kind!"

Ha, there's nothing better than playing a game without knowing anything about it, I swear. Too bad I can't do that with ME2. Well, I hope I don't need to tell you of my disappointment when Garrus' final "Thank you" dialogue concerned Saren and some more C-Sec. I never expected him to become romantically involved with FemShep, but...I dunno. I guess part of me just wanted it to happen.

What were your impressions when you first saw Nihilus? I mean this question assuming most of you have a special interest in Turians, but even if you're only interested in Garrus, feel free to answer.


All I knew when I started playing the game was that there was the option to get, uh, romantically involved with an alien woman. That interested me somehow. Yes, I'm weird. Anyway, then Nihlus showed up, and I knew nothing about turians at the time. I was awed. Especially by his green eyes. He just looked so interesting! I first assumed his unseen "death" scene when you hear the gunshot was supposed to raise the tension or something. You can't believe how I felt when I saw him lying there in the puddle of his own blood.

Haha, we felt the same way then! I was a bit confused about his thin waist at first, but overall they just add to the great aesthetics of turians.

ME1 gave me this sense of wonder the first time I played it. Everything was just so new and beautiful to look at. I hope ME2 will make me feel the same way.

You know both Nihlus and Garrus' eyes are incredible. I'm a sucker when it comes to amazing eye colours, especially blue. I'm terrible all I have to say. xD



Speaking of Nihlus, his face painting marks reminds me of Darth Nihilus, minus the voice. =P

To be honest, at first turian eyes were a bit scary for me. The way they just glow in the darkness, because you can't really see the skin and eyelid around them, reminded too much of a skull.

But then Garrus appears, with his light, visible eyelids and an amazing, natural blue color, and... :wub:

I know, the look was so intense and predatory.  I was like...wow...don't mess with him. XD

When I first saw Nihlus? I was like...wow, he looks interesting and pretty cool.  And his voice, of course, was really attractive to me.  I was like...sweet, I get to travel with this guy? Then, of course...the horrible happened and now poor Nihlus... :crying:

Yeah, I got over missing Nihlus when Garrus entered the picture. 

I was like...ooo, he has a sexy voice.  Then when he first sees Shepard and I noted how he moved very gracefully and had that predatory air.  Since then...yes, I miss Nihlus and really wish he hadn't died.  But I went head-over-heels into Garrus' camp as I learned about his personality and (omg yes) that voice was seductive.  I was absolutely gobsmacked that he wasn't a romance option.  I'm like...Kaidan? Liara? Really, Bioware? You create this complete-package-that's-gotta-be-a-love-interest turian with a voice that screams "sex and seduction."  You make him a smooth operater, a skilled warrior, and thoroughly predatory.  You make him one of the most stable and independent characters in the entire game...and all we get is Kaidan? No offense to Kaidan fans, but it was such a crime.  I mean...he was so close and so far.  Cruel, BW, cruel.

I looove their eyes.  They're so alien but so human all at the same time.  You'll notice how Garrus' sclera is black, and then he has those lovely blue irises that seem to have all sorts of shades in them.  From steely blue-greys to deeper ocean blues. <3 *sighs*

Their eyes are too terribly gorgeous to resist. ^^

I was gutted to find out Nihlus got shot by Saren. Damn him!
Nihlus is too cool, he seems to be more warm to my Shepard. He has an unique personality. I happen to fall for him since the beginning of the game until the sad tragic happens. *sniffs*

But, Nihlus has a really cool armour ever. I think it has to be the best Turian armour design I've seen next to Garrus'.

Oooh, story time! *rubs sleep out of eyes*

Well, my dad was able to play Mass Effect before I could, since I was still in school at the time and he held dominion over the 360. He came pick me up for a weekend visit, and he told me about how awesome it was and how much I was going to absolutely love the "main villain" Saren. Because, I admit it, I was a teenager completely smitten with evil masterminds and the like. So I ended up giving it a try, and well... Saren who? Nihlus' voice was so much softer and his design was more pleasing to the eye, for sure. I was beguiled, to say the very least. He struck me as more alien than what I was used to - vulcans, twi'leks, and the like, but man... he was attractive.

And then Saren shot him in cold blood. Needless to say, I was more upset than I probably should've been, but I got all offended that my dad had claimed I'd love him. I'm pretty sure that was my turning point from liking the bad guy to liking the good guy with slightly renegade ambitions. :police:

Oh? Excuse me? What was that? *cough* ^_^

Aiiieee! It's getting so close to release day, you guys! It's gotten to the point where I'm having Mass Effect dreams at an alarming rate. Last night, I dreamt that Garrus and Tali were trying to help me get away from Thane, who was trying to assassinate me. I got separated from them, and he caught me. :(

I hope the dream wasn't some odd telling of the future. *chin wibble*

I do have to agree with all of the love for Garrus. I had him in my party every time throughout ME1 and trust me when i say he will be in my party every run through of ME2. Ever since the first moment you encounter him on the citadel and his attitude towards getting the job done. I just felt connected to him and honestly i cant say i was connected to Kaiden, Ashley or Liara in the way i was towards Garrus. =) It was like a couple of best friends taking on over whelming odds.



Woo! Just wanted to put in my two cents.

It's Garrus' mighty Omni-Visor! For looking cool and griefing geths.
He could also do a CSI thing with it, keeping it turned off most of the time, but clicking the display on whenever he delivers a crime-related pun. Or just a cool line, imagine him doing that when the talks about krogan testicles for instance.


I just laughed. so. hard. at that image.

The two stand over a sparking, near-dead Legion.
Shepard: So... what do you think, Garrus?
Garrus: *flicks on visor* He could've used a few legions of back-up.
Shepard: ....


YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

Yeah, Nihlus' armor was...Phantom Armor, I believe.  Very awesome, but Garrus' ME2 armor is really smexy, too. :3

And "gutted" is exactly how I felt when I heard that gunshot.  I was just...grrr...I was ready to take Saren down. >:(

I agree; Garrus was always my right hand in ME1 and he'll be the same in ME2.  Felt like one of the more solid, independent characters of ME1...more "real." :P I felt I could definitely sit down and have a drink with someone like Garrus. ^^

Wow. I wish I had them that often, lol. I wake up pretty much freaking out in joy after every time I have an ME or Beatles dream. Lol. Not this Tuesday, but NEXT TUESDAY! SO CLOSE! BUT SO FAR!

Thane caught you? D; Did you turn into a fish-person too?

I noticed something after reading through the recent posts. My eyes... They are either blue or grey (or a mix) depending on the lighting. I just need to replace my blonde hair with metallic spikes. I'll be awash in a sea of fangirls. Now if only I could get the flange down...

*waits impatiently in the wings for more clues about said fanfiction*

I kid, I kid! 

That said, I need a real firm kick in the butt to start working on something new. I was thinking about doing something with Garrus stationed on Omega. Or maybe something about Dr. Saleon. Or about the team's reaction when they pods land on the planet and Shepard isn't there. I DON'T KNOW. Too many ideas! Too much time! (Which leads to super, mega, ultra procrastination. Bah.)

I'm living vicariously through your activity, Eradyn!
