I don't know what you think, but i could go with a Raloi - Squadmate - i like this fanart here, i think there is a high possibility that Raloi could look like that one:

 

 

Could be a shaman like medic/adept or a mercenary with a personality like Zaeed. I am fine with other clothes/armor or weapons.

A pilot or engineer would be nice, too. Could use light pistols/shotguns or sniper rifles & a melee weapon.

[Broganisity]

It looks like a raptor had an angry threesome with a jackal and the pokemon Blazekin. . .I'm not against this, mind.

 

. . .but since I know nothing about the Raloi I won't touch em, yet.

Naas'Taara nar Qwib-Qwib - Male Quarian Vanguard and Sunni'Tera vas Neema - female quarian infiltrator

 

Spoiler

Bio.: Naas'Taara (or simply Naas) has the "Qwib-Qwib" marked as his homeship, but he only trully steeped in the flotila wen he was five years old. His mother, along with other ten pregnant female quarians, were part of a secret project to create Quarian biotics, in hope this would help strengthen the quarian's poor immune systems. Since they could never go trough any official channel for this kind of thing, because of the way they were seen, they had to cut corners. And thus they came to know of the Euryales, a rouge group of Asari, Salarian and Human scientists who performed any kind of experiments "in the name of science", carrying little for ethics and moral. All of the mothers died in the experiments, and only tree children were born. Two went insane as they got older, and they teared the lab apart, killing all of Euryales' scientists in there and almost all of the quarian squad that was sent to help. The survivors of the squad wanted to kill the last boy, in fear him would also go nuts and go on a killing rampage. But their leader, Admiral Zall'Koris vas Qwib Qwib, talked them down.

The boy seemed fine, and the scientis notes showed his mental readings were stable. The scientists also developed a blocker to the biotic abilities that worked like the reverse of the comom biotic amp, so  as long as it was installed, the boy would be a completely normal quarian. The boy was taken back to the fleet and was registered as Naas'Taara nar Qwib-Qwib, Admiral Zall'koris son. All the record's about the experiments were sealed by the admiralty board, but by Zall'koris request, the boy remained with his mother's clan name.

 

As he grew up, he trained and excelled in tight combat situations, and some even compared his fierce skills as with the Krogan (though most krogan would laugh if they heard this). He also believed in his "father's" Ideals, and wanted to reach a peacefull solution for the geth-quarian problem. For everyone, it was almost granted that Naas would became Zall'Koris sucessor in the future, but first he still needed to go trough his pilgrimage, and he would surely need an impressive gift to even be considered up to the task.

 

But never underestimate the political schemes going on in the flotilla, and as Admiral Zall'Koris point of view never was popular among the quarian population.What better way of demoralizing the "geth apologist" than making his son look like a traitor? So wen Naas was permitted his leave to complete his rite of pilgrimage, Admiral Han'Gerrel vas Neema, Zall'Koris most notable oppositor, sent a spy after him, Sunni'Tera vas Neema, a female infiltrator. She had to keep him from completing his pilgrimage, and gater intel on him, so they could come up with something to incriminate him. They new each other a bit growing up, since they were from diferent ships, but in the rare ocasions they seen each other, they didn't got along really well, because of the extremely different points of view. And her sassy personality annoyed Naas greatly.

 

Nether of them returned to the flotila, as both got involved in the project Arkon  - wich I don't know the details, so I will leave it at that But Sunni would spend a great portion of the game's story trying to find a way to return, she is very loyal to her people.

 

 

In terms of appearance, there isn't much to say, they are quarians after all. Naas suit has a blue/white pattern, and Sunni's is red like blood.

 

Combat:

 

Naas: Ruthless, he literally trows himself in close range combat. Shotguns and ominiblades are his weapons of choice. Since his biotic powers are locked because of the biotic blocker, he would unlock his powers in the middle of the story, making for a nice plot twist, maybe almost driving him mad. But from the start, it would be noticeable he is different from other quarians, since he doesn't have a weak immune system, and can heal faster.

 

Sunni: Fights cloaked, like Kasumi. Sniper rilfes and submachine guns are her weapons of choice. She is also and excellent hacker, and finds disrupting firewals and suits shield defenses exhilarating.

 

Approval/ Morality

 

Naas: He mostly approves diplomatic actions, but he also has a bit off a hot headed personality. He will sometimes compel the player to more drastic decisions, but he is not unreasonable. So, his is in the blurry line that separates paragon and renegade, but tends to go more for the first.

 

Sunni: Renegade. She finds diplomacy boring. She wants to get the job done no matter what. Also, she finds immense pleasure in sabotaging her enemies plans, so if the player goes that road, she would definitely support it. She can, however, depending on the player's persuasion, change her views by the end of the game.

 

Romance

 

Naas: At first, he isn't interested nether a female of a male player, but after completing his "biotic reveal" act, and if the player choses to help him, he would grow closer to them. If the player goes further, he would take the initiative and ask if the player is interested, even if he finds it really weird since they aren't from the same race.

 

Sunni: She would tease the player, and would be completely be in control of the situation. A bit like a dominatrix. But she would only open up for a romance if the player didn't support Naas and authorize her to record her findings on him to present them to the fleet if they ever find a way to come back to the milky way. She would be a romance interest only for a female pc.

[Sully13]

It was originally going to be a standard sized unit that was to (rather ironically) replace the LOKI Mech (given Loki is responsible for Baldr's death) I then changed up its size to fit its new abilities, but retained the name as I liked the sound and meaning of it: being short while simple, and also translating into a 'normal' name for it to be called 'Balder versus BALDR'.

 . . .Also I had an idea for how it would appear in the sequel, and there'd be a joke in relation to its name.

Yeah tossin a mistletoe refferance or too. lol

 

It was a decent game that didnt sell to well. and sorely needs a decent reboot.

The Hahne-Kedar-manufactured LOKI Mech is a bipedal humanoid security robot designed for security detail and guard duty in locations where manpower is an issue, or where the use of organics for "around the clock" shifts is unfeasible. Initially used exclusively by the Alliance for colony guard duty, the LOKI Mech came into new use following the Battle of the Citadel in 2183. Numerous civilian and military sector units saw staggering losses from Sovereign's attack and incidents involving the rogue Spectre Saren Arterius.

The Mechs have long seen use in groups on the shiftier side of the law when raw manpower is needed. Eclipse Mercenaries make extensive use of them, typically as expendable assault units. They are also used by Blue Suns mercs, who typically deploy them for added security detail when needed, as well as Cerberus.

[Treacherous J Slither]

Taking your idea and running with it:

12) Vireene Jiltius, War Hero or War Criminal? (Asari Infiltrator)

Spoiler

Background Synopsis: Virrene is a maiden in her two-hundreds, and a skilled commando in the Asari military. Skilled to the point that she was receiving missions others sought after. These jealous few would bring apart her downfall, guising themselves as human mercenaries and sabotaging her missions. With her reputation for success tarnished, Vireene had one last chance to redeem herself but those who sought to ruin her would deal the deathblow to her career. On her last mission, she was forced to destroy a ‘hidden base’ that was, in truth, filled with refugees.

Her former colleagues filed reports against her and served as witnesses to her crimes. Disgraced and sentenced to death, Vireene is sealed within a temporary prison before she is to be shipped off to be executed. She can be freed by the player. The player loses reputation with the Asari if they choose to do so, and a commando unit is dispatched to kill them.

Personality: Vireene is a dedicated Asari who will see her mission completed no matter what. She uses ‘the book’ as more of a guideline as there is no such thing as a ‘routine mission’ in her eyes. She is incapable of lying, and focuses intently on keeping things this way. She is friendly to those she knows, but always respectful unless someone has acted in a way for her to act otherwise. She looks upon the galaxy with starry eyes and wants to explore it, which was her initial reason for joining the commandos along with ‘those action vids we all grew up on’.

Appearance: Vireene is a smooth skinned, light purple Asari with no facial markings. Her face is a little round, and her nose is small and hawkish in shape. Her eyes are clear blue and slightly slanted towards the nose. She tends to wear face paint, a deep purple around the eyes with ‘spread wings’ towards the side of the head, and a vertical strip across the lips and down towards the tip of the chin.

She wears the standard commando uniform; a padded dark brown, double layered catsuit with internal dampeners to reduce firearms damage to critical organs. She will wear a standard armored suit in Zero-G or otherwise inhospitable situations.

Combat: Vireene is about terrorizing enemies up close and then disappearing just as soon as she came. Decoy proves to be a powerful distraction tool as she moves in on her target. Annihilation Field lets her prime nearby targets while improving her mobility, while Reave can be used to detonate and give her some extra protection. Distortion Charge is her loyalty skill, which makes her vanish in a cloud of biotic energy before appearing at a target and releasing a AoE Cone blast forward that can detonate biotic explosions.

She uses a shotgun and an SMG.

Approval/Morality Alignment: She approves of the player telling the truth no matter what, and will disapprove if the player tries to frame people for the actions of others. She won’t disapprove of the player picking fights or avoiding them, but will insist that the player takes decisive action rather than hesitate. Despite being forcibly released from incarceration, she stands by the oaths she gave upon joining the commandos and intends to return to her people regardless of what happens during her travels with the player. She can be considered Lawful good.

She gets along with Syrus swimmingly, and to a lesser extent Fera, Borim, Dinata, and Shriik. She tolerates Zarr and Keera (if only for her family’s military tradition), and is not a fan of Quarians. She appreciates Herald’s fighting style, but that’s about it. She is distrustful of Tasha, Gnash, and Andre.

Loyalty Mission: Vireene’s loyalty mission is available the moment you recruit her. She will ask for your help in finding evidence to clear her name. Accepting, the player will return to the scene of her last mission, a lush jungle continent on a planet suitable for habitation. They can pick through the base’s ruins to find a few audio excerpts and some other suspicious findings, but nothing that can exonerate her on its own.

At some point, the player’s party will be attacked by the unit Vireene was once a part of, who will set up ambushes before disappearing back into the foliage. Surviving these attacks, Vireene and the player eventually find where the commandos are headquartered, and a stand-off occurs. Vireene learns that the Asari government is hunting them now and then learns from the squad leader the truth of her mission failures. A fight then breaks out, but not before the Player can convince some of the commandos to stand up for Vireene and to live up to their unit’s legacy. With the renegade commandos dead, the player’s will have recorded the confession that will clear Vireene of her charges. Vireene will ask that the player join her in presenting this information to the Asari people. With the charges against her cleared, Vireene is offered the leadership of her old unit. She will accept or decline based on whether or not the player has encouraged her to return to or abandon the commandos. Either way, she will state that she intends to see the player’s mission through, and her loyalty is secured.


Romance: She isn’t interested in a long-term relationship at this time, but will flirt with a player of either gender once loyal. The player can sleep with her after a while of flirting, but should be careful if they are in a romantic relationship with another crew member. Reactions will vary.

Other: Herald, if loyal and convinced to be more Pro-Unity, will make the following comment: "Haven't worked so well on the battlefield with someone before. . .nice shade of purple too. . .if only she was human.". You can't convince him to 'go for it', however.

Huzzah, twelve characters down so far!

Not what I had in mind but still very good.

Not what I had in mind but still very good.

 

Well, I'd like to see your take on it then! See how the renditions compare and contrast.

[Broganisity]

Thinking I'll write up to twenty characters total (at the fifteenth), but I've no ideas as to what at this point. . .

[ffejita]

I'd like to see an Asari nearing her Matriarch age, but not as formal as Benezia or Samara. Probably someone with a wisened personality but still retaining a good sense of humor. Like your favorite grandma

[Feybrad]

Thinking I'll write up to twenty characters total (at the fifteenth), but I've no ideas as to what at this point. . .

 

Luckily, I am here. Let's get this started.

 

To this Character, Gender or Race do not really matter. What matters, though, is, that they died. I was always annoyed how Shepard totally brushed off dying with some Jokes, so I would like to see a Character, who died once and was revived through technological Means. It did not have to be a gruesome Death like Shepards but one, where they were equally... well... dead afterwards. Luckily, Andromeda has top-notch medical Facilities and they brought him/her/it back from after the Brink of Death... but unlike Shepard, they have Issueas left from that, not the least with their own Murderer.

Kinda had a bit of a 'Reincarnation, Egypt-meets-Darth Vader' vibe by the time I finished this. Name was initially 'Katherine Cutter' while working on the outline, recruitment means and introduction changed once, appearance changed three times, and was a soldier class before realizing that Herald was the only Vanguard type out of these fifteen. Abilities bounced around a bit with the only constant being 'Barrier'.

 

. . .Also SO MANY FORMATTING ISSUES WITH THE SPOILERS. I finally fixed it. . .
 

15) ‘Rasputin’, the Revenant (Human Vanguard)

 

Spoiler

Background Synopsis: Rasputin (her handle) won’t tell you about her personal life. She is a biotic mercenary who will seek out the player after some time and offer their services, for a price. A renegade player can convince them to join at a discount if they state that ‘someone is going to pay alright. Hard’.

 

Personality: Rasputin is cold and not 'best friend' material. She is on the ship because you paid her to be there, and she won’t discuss anything with you besides the results of past missions and advice in regards to upcoming ones: these being either main story quests or companion loyalty missions. She speaks plainly and speaks her mind with as few words as needed. She will, while un-loyal, get along better with a more renegade player but stop being so if the player becomes ‘too soft’ (paragon stat surpasses renegade). They believe the destination is more important to the journey and prefers to take the quickest route possible in life . . . of course, they also believe all journeys lead to the same destination: Death.

Appearance: Rasputin always wears a special suit of armor, more akin to a coffin than to body armor. It is a dark silver color and bulky with a thick, flat chestplate, large, smooth shoulders and angular boots. The helmet is reminiscent of the famous golden death masks of Egypt, featuring an expressionless face of a woman. She sometimes wears a cape, which is royal purple on the outside and red on the inside.

Combat: Rasputin focuses on hindering and punishing enemies who get close, while firing on them from afar. Barrier increases her durability, while Cascade allows her to prime nearby enemies and knockdown non-shielded humanoids (upgraded to include unarmored humanoids). Biotic Slash can detonate effects and do solid damage. Phase Disruptor is her loyalty skill, sacrificing shields for a high damage, long range blast. She uses an Assault Rifle and (strangely enough) a sniper rifle and will melee nearby enemies with a blade made using her biotics.

 

Approval/Morality Alignment: Rasputin is supportive of the player’s actions regardless as they are under contract to do so. They will be more supportive of renegade actions, however will also approve of the player helping distressed or injured persons. They can be considered chaotic neutral leaning towards neutral good.

 

They avoid the crew, who still has their opinions of her. Herald will approve of her being aboard, while most others are either suspicious or worried. BALDR has no opinion on them, though Rasputin seems to be more receptive to the machine than anyone else in the group. Tasha calls her a ‘tough ****** and that’s awesome’, and Andre thinks she’s ‘****** crazy. . .maybe hot under that mask but not worth it- or maybe- no. Not worth it.’

Loyalty Mission: (quoted for spoilers and size)

 

Spoiler

After a while, Rasputin will mention that she has a contract out to kill one Roxanne Carter. When asked for more information on Carter, Rasputin will simply call this person ‘the worst scum in the galaxy . . . better for ‘everyone’ that she’s dead’.

Accepting, the player, Rasputin, and a third party member will head into a city to locate and kill Carter. Finding the home, a rather top end place, they will encounter a few security mechs before breaking into downstairs emergency shelter, where Roxanne Carter, her wife Harold (bringing Herald along will lead to some amusing dialogue at this), and two children.

Initially surprised, Roxanne claims that the ‘player has been had’. It’s here that Rasputin’s background is revealed.

 

Rasputin is the real Roxanne Carter, who had been killed and buried on a garden world some time ago; she has since been impersonated for the past ten years by a clone made by a biomechanical company intent on getting the Carter family fortune. (Tash will be pissed if brought for this mission). Roxanne’s body had been recovered by a mech (Rasputin will acknowledge this to be BALDR if they were brought along. The mech has no response) and was given over to an anonymous patron who referred to themselves as ‘Saint’. ‘Saint’ brought the dead woman back to life using an experimental medical process that took three years to take full effect.

 

Awakening, Roxanne was sealed within her specialized suit to keep her alive and worked for ‘Saint’ as a full-time assassin in payment for her life. ‘Saint’ allowed her to leave after another six years once they deemed her debt fulfilled, but she refuses to disclose how many people she killed in that time. She spent the last year tracking down her imposter.

Rasputin will be intent on finishing the job, but the player can ask a few questions despite there being ‘no time for talk’. The following outcomes are available:

• Player does nothing: Rasputin shoots ‘Roxanne’ and the party leaves. Rasputin is now loyal.
• Player asks too many questions (three): Enemy re-enforcements arrive; player has to fight them off and kill Roxanne before she escapes. If Roxanne escapes, then Rasputin is not loyal.

Afterwards, Rasputin will turn angrily towards Harold, and point her gun at him. Declaring that he betrayed her, she will shoot him if the player doesn’t intervene. If the player does intervene they can convince her to stop, but will need to use a proper argument to convince her (two if Roxanne got away). Failing will cause her to shoot him anyways and leave the party if not loyal. The results are as follows:

• Player does nothing: Roxanne shoots Harold and leaves. No change in loyalty
• Player convinces her to not kill Harold: Harold lives, but she shoots him in the leg to prove a point. No change in loyalty.
• Player convinces her to reconcile: Harold lives, and Rasputin stays behind to talk with him, but later returns to the ship. Becomes loyal if not so already.
• Player fails to convince her to stop: Rasputin shoots Harold and leaves. Remains loyal if loyal prior, but leaves if not loyal.
• Player uses Renegade Interrupt: Player and their other companion shoots Rasputin multiple times before leaving. “I said ‘no’.”
   

If still alive, the player will ask what happens now. Rasputin states that she first finishes her contract under the player before deciding what happens next. If the clone isn’t dead (and she is not loyal), Rasputin states instead that she’ll ‘track the impostor down again once my contract with you is fulfilled’.

If she reconciled with Harold, she will state that the two of them will remain in touch, but too much time has gone by for her to consider returning. She will also reveal that the children with him were born from the clone, and that she doesn’t have any feelings towards them.

With her loyalty secured, Rasputin will be more open only to the player (and only in private), as they have earned her complete respect. She will slowly grow to consider the player a friend (the player can respond in kind), and at this point admit that she isn’t quite sure who she is anymore. As far as the galaxy is concerned, Roxanne and Rasputin are two different people: Roxanne continued to be a wife and went on to raise a family, while Rasputin is ‘a monstrous murderer-for-hire’ who was born on an operating table. She won’t listen to any advice the player may have, stating that ‘this is something I have to consider for myself’.

Romance: Rasputin will ignore the first attempt of the player to flirt with her, but all subsequent attempts will be met by a punch to the jaw – no slaps, no warnings. Nothing.

Other: 1) The player can try as many times as they like to flirt with Rasputin, essentially giving the player a ‘Press X to get punched’ button.

2) RAH RAH RASPUTIN!

[old_dawn]

Name: Tania Pheos
Species: Drell
Location: the desert planet from the trailer

If you help her with part 1 of her personal mission of the desert planet then she will join you as a follower after you complete the main story mission on the planet. Afterwards you find out that she exposed herself to the risk of keprels syndrome by leaving the safety of the desert. This is the first branching off:

1. Convince her to return home. This can only be done if you start a fake argument and pretend you don't want her help anymore. There are paragon and renegade dialigue paths. If you choose paragon she will sneak on your ship later in the story because she believes it is better to live and a short life to save the galaxy then live a long life and watch the galaxy be destroyed. Renegade option will never allow you to see her again, if you revisit her desert home she will pretend that she doesn't know you.

2. Or you can allow her to stay on the ship. Renegade option is to give her the most humid quarters of the ship. Paragon is if you give her your captain cabin, the most arid part of the ship.

---

Abilities:
1. Shadowscales: turns invisible and invulnerable to damage for 5 seconds. Sneaks up to enemy and perform deadly melee attack
2. Venom Vivisect: throws up to three deadly knives coated with drell poison.
3. Total recall: significantly increases damage of herself and party. Recover all loat health and armours.

Tania used to be spy for the hanar but was allowed to leave when she grew disillusioned. She is aggressive, efficient, compassionate, honorable, and lighthearted. Her first personal mission is on the desert, you must help her fight off gthe hanar that decided she is too dangerous to let live (renegade), or allow the hanar to take her away (neutral), or help her find a hiding place and/or convince the hanar to leave.

Her second personal quest is to help her find the last of the tribe she descended from. When you find them almost all of them have keprels and you must either put them all down or take them to a hospital. A special third option is if you convinced the hanar to leave earlier then you can contact them to help evacuate the sick drell. If you

Haven't been able to bring myself to make a Batarian yet. . .Just not sure how to attack that particular concept. . .I don't want to do the commonly requested ideas I've seen people have, and I don't want to mention the Hegemony until we actually know something about it. . .

Whatever.

 

My character is in charge and others will toe the line or be tossed (or never picked for missions).  I really hope for some strong interactions between my character and others. And I really hope for some conflict between crew members so that I can show them who's opinion matters.

Female Batarian.

 

 

Still doesn't answer anything. People either want:

- A Batarian who says '**** the Hegemony!'
and/or
- A Batarian who comes to like the humens.

 

. . .and I don't wanna write the same thing people else keep writing up and wanting and all that jazz. As it stands with the prior fifteen, I already have two that aren't all that fond of the humens , and a few that aren't exactly 'Best Friends with the Establishment'.

[Sully13]

Nah im thinking we never saw one in the games.

[Feybrad]

Batarians you say?

 

You see, the Thing with this Batarian is, that he actually liked the Hegemony's Structure. He thought, either from Experience or from History Lessons, that the Hegemony was actually quite the rad Thing. Now, obviously that doesn't exactly make him/her popular, especially with the humens, but that's okay as he's on the Ship with a very specific Mission from People who think like him and want to save the Hegemony's Ideals within Andromeda. The most important Thing about this Character is that he's a Supporter of the batarian Culture, for the most Part, but still maintains a civil and affable Facade, giving Insight into batarian Culture that goes beyond Piracy, Slavery and Terrorism.

16) Warg  (Batarian Soldier)

Spoiler

Background Synopsis: Warg is high up on the Batarian’s Caste System, and owns multiple slaves of his own. A military veteran turned mercenary of considerable renown, he can be hired by the player after he is encountered on a trade ship gathering supplies.

 

Personality: Contrary to the ‘Batarian Thug’ stereotype, Warg is well mannered and friendly to everyone, even humans. However, those unfamiliar with Batarian body language would not know that Warg subtly considers others to be weak and below him, especially the former council races. On the other side, its hard to lie to a Batarian given their inherit skill in perception and this serves to further his abilities as a charismatic individual. He makes sure the best parts of Batarian life are placed above others and the controversial parts are portrayed in a better way.

Appearance: Warg is a greenish color, with a trio of vertical colorations, orangish in hue, that go down from his forehead and one over each upper eye. He has a matching trio of marks on his chin. There are parts of his face that are a deeper green, namely near the cheeks and sides of the head. His ears are pointed at the tip and bottom of the ears, and his left ear seems to be missing a small chunk out of the side.

He wears a suit of armor, Batarian in nature, with multiple andoliers strapped to it for thermal clips and grenades. He wears a redish-screened visor in habitable areas that covers his right eyes, that lets him scan nearby areas for notable information.

Combat: Warg makes his enemies suffer while taking punishment himself. Blade Armor augments his defenses and punishes melee enemies while making his melee attacks stronger, while Ballistic Blades let him pierce his enemies and leave them to bleed. His inferno grenades can burn multiple groups of enemies, and can leave them panicked and ready for finishing shots. Submission Net is his loyalty skill, letting him slow down large enemies and snare smaller ones. He uses a Sniper Rifle and a Shotgun.

 

Approval/Morality Alignment: Warg will only disapprove of an action that supports freeing slaves (he calls it a waste of time) or decisions that otherwise go against the Batarian way of life. A player that is hostile towards Warg and confronts him on every opportunity won’t be able to secure his friendship. A respectful player, regardless of if they support or oppose Warg’s views, will earn his respect as they ‘are at least civil about things’.  Warg is best described as Chaotic Neutral, leaning towards Neutral Good.

Most people will be distrustful of Warg, even BALDR (it is in his programming not to trust Batarians). Herald, Andre, and Syrus are the most distrustful of Warg. Tasha and Gnash have no negative opinions of Warg, nor does Borim. Rasputin will mention that she’s fought Warg a few times when they’ve conflicted on the job, but the two have a mutual respect for one another’s skill.

 

Loyalty Mission: After some time aboard the player’s ship, Warg will report that a Batarian colony is under attack by human extremists. Warg will set out to help regardless, but will die if the player takes too long to follow after him.

Arriving, the player will find Warg and a few Batarians attempting to fight off the Blue Flames (A non-loyal Herald is not selectable for this mission). Intervening (Warg will die in the battle if you took too long to arrive) the Batarians will appreciate the player’s help (surprised that a human is fighting other humans), but the Blue Flames are attempting to detonate an explosive beneath the settlement; in their catacombs. The player will head down through the tunnels with Warg/A different Batarian (receiving some information about Batarian spirituality along the way) and eventually enter a larger area which he states is ‘his family’s burial ground’. The player’s party will then have to fight Blue Flames forces before the bomb is detonated. The player triumphs and the party heads to the surface.

The party then meets Warg’s wife and child. Warg, considered loyal at this point if alive, will thank the player. Warg’s wife offers to have the player over for dinner. Warg will state that the player has business to take care of if they were antagonistic towards him, while Warg himself will ask a friendly player in turn to join them. The player makes the final decision.

Accepting, the player will be lead into the most notable home in the settlement, and the meal will be served by a mixture of batarian and human slaves. The player can lose Warg’s loyalty by attempting to free the slaves, who are actually quite content with their new lives, having been street urchins prior. Regardless, the dinner is concluded and the player returns to their ship a little wiser in regards to the Batarian way of life.

With his loyalty secure, Warg won’t change his mannerisms in any way, unless the player was and is polite to him. He will turn his head the opposite way he was prior as a sign of respect rather than believing himself superior to the player. He will also be more willing to share information about the Batarian way of life to a player who asks, and states such things as:

• “Not all slaves are treated the way the news tells you”. He will use his own home as an example, if the player stayed for dinner. “The vocal minority dirties the solemn majority.”
   
• “My culture is one of respect. The difference with human culture is that you mock your betters, while we serve them.”

Romance: Warg cannot be romanced.

 

Other: He can be fired at any time if non-loyal, same as the other party members. Also family seems to be a continued theme in these characters, so I'm stickin' with it. Also, Warg went home to be a Family Man.

He was originally an agent of the Hegemony's Department of Information Control, but given multiple factors (Hegemony's existence in ME3, presence in Andromeda ETC) I swapped him out of it.
