The thing I mention in the OP, is that it might be nice to have a blond companion in the next game, which isn't a thing I'm hugely invested in personally. But I know other people are because there were several threads about a blonde companion before this one that ended up locked because they became unproductive. So, this thread is for them, and it's not a representation or lack of representation issue in the sense that I perceive some injustice in the infrequency of blonde characters. It's really simply about the fact that some people want blondes and...why not? 

Fair enough. ;)

 

I seem to remember the leak from last year suggesting there is a blonde female squaddie, but I'm not 100% sure if that's what it was saying. It's been a while.

 

EDIT: Found it:

 

2 Squad mates as before, a human blonde and a krogan mentioned

 

Link

 

Don't know if this has been mentioned already.

So, I went to go to the cinema to see the Revenant with my friends ( I wanted to see Deadpool, but the majority voted for this film. It was good though, so I'm not disappointed. I'll see deadpool another time )
 
And actually, this thread made me look around a bit more than usual while I was walking on the streets and inside the big mall. And there is actually a fair number of blondes, almost as much as brunettes. And plenty of pretty ones. Like I said, I see pretty much diversity around me. Now if we are talking about people naturally very blonde, like in the Netherlands, there, okay. 
 
There was a blonde girl working at the box office and who sold the cinema tickets. I pretended that I was under 18 years, so I can have some advantages and pay much less to watch the movie. She just laughed...
 
What's so funny ? I swear I am 17 years old...  :rolleyes:
 
I truly need to work on my skills to convince someone...  :rolleyes: If I can't convince a blonde, I'm definitely bad. ( I'm joking and being silly huh, don't hit me ! ) 
 
Regardless, I hope it will be good with the blonde folks in the next game. Kalhee Sanders in mass effect 3 looked weird in my opinion. Don't know if she was supposed to look very attractive to men as it was stated in the first book, but she was not to me.

Anyways, even if it were possible that blonde might be rare in the future in a few centuries ( which I don't believe at all ), I would never want that to happen in a video game or serie tv occuring in the future and following that mad concept. That's depressing to even think that there will be less diversity. Just that idea alone made me want to burn that line in the lore of Mass effect when I read it in the book. 
 
I hope you read this topic Bioware ! # love for blonde characters and npcs.

Blonde hair color choice was weird in ME.

Even if you went with modding...it still would kinda look off in my opinion:

I tried I swear I did to get more normal blonde color and still am not satisfied, though still better then what vanilla offered that's for sure.

 

And well everyone in ME3 look way weirder then in ME2 in my opinion.

Among ME females I always found Jack to be most beautiful when it comes to face, Miranda wins body contest and Tali best female in general contest haha  <3 :kissing: <3

I miss Phoenix too. I don't post here all that much these days because I couldn't afford the last few DAI DLCs and we know nothing about Andromeda so there isn't much to go on about outside of The Lobby.

 

Cause of that I end up missing all the regulars I used to see on here. Its a shame. I hate how split up everyone is now.

Kahlee looked weird because of those icy blue eyes.

If I recall I thought Kahlee looked fine but then again that was a long while ago.

The funny thing about Kahlee was that she looked exactly the way I pictured her from the books.

Even though she looks nothing like the way she was described in the books?

I'd play as her. Looks like the kind of confident badass soldier with a sense of humor I'd love to play as or have help my playable character in a game as a squaddie.

 

Dude- "So, I have a question."

 

Her- "Shoot."

 

Dude- "Whats with all the makeup?"

 

Her- "Never seen a woman wear makeup?"

 

Dude- "Of course I have. I'm just saying, we're soldiers. We get dirty, we get messy, we have projectiles flying at us, isn't makeup a bit pointless? Just seems like an excess you don't need."

 

Her- "I have two things to say that. One, the professional answer. The second, something you'd expect me to say."

 

Dude- "Lay it on me."

 

Her- "One, we've got shields and barriers. Sure they won't block everything that comes our way, but they'll keep us from getting too screwed up in a fight. Why should it matter what we look like when we're protected? Might as well look our best."

 

Dude- "Fair enough. And your second point?"

 

Her- "When has getting dirty, messy, and having projectiles flying at us ever stopped someone from wearing makeup?"

 

*pause*

 

Dude- "This is why we're friends."

Let someone tell Yennefer she can't look as she does when she's in combat. We'll see how that goes. :P

Elizabeth Montgomery in her prime is a splendid inspiration to base a blonde companion or NPC off of.

 

Spoiler

 

She made watching "bewitch" on nick at night all the more enjoyable for me ^

Don't care if art style is massively different just wanted to post some lovely older blondes from other games I've played.

(Yes they are suppose to be older art style isn't great at showing it I guess, both women are mothers, the one on the right has a daughter I think is around in her early 20s if I were to guess)
