Have you seen this post yet? Thane Krios's 3ds Max portrait...........

[JECWSU]

What portrait are you talking about?

[Saibh]

This one. Crazy, huh?

[Lisinity]

Well, I'm not saying I want to see Thane get angry enough to go on a killing spree (even if it would be interesting to watch), it would be a very interesting turn in character. I've heard him when you start to fall behind in the loyalty mission, and that is one instance of anger.



The whole reason I thought of this was when I was listening to Thane's battle lines, a couple of them he seems very distressed/angered, and his voice gets waaaaay higher than usual. It was... intriguing. Occasionally, it does sound like an entirely different person.

You should listen to his lines if you make him go into the vents during the suicide mission-he sounds so panicky and terrified there is no calm or cool demeanor. Listening to those sound files makes it pretty obvious Thane definitely does not want to die up in those vents

I love thane so much! Im enrolled in college now and I havent played mass effect in months, seeing all of this thane love is making me miss him. I really hope he shows up in mass effect 3, although it seems like all the characters I love do not come back

I'm with you-I sometimes feel like I'm cursed with loving characters that end up not making it
I sincerely hope Thane isn't one of those characters.

I know how you feel when it comes to characters you like not coming back. I am hoping that Thane is different. I will be really upset if he isn't in ME3 or he gets a badly written role.

Agreed.  The potential for Thane to evolve even further in ME3 is huge and it'd be awful to just write him out with his death.  Do I believe he should eventually die?  I do.  We all eventually die (except Shepard apparently).  But it's a hard sell to convince me that there is no possible treatment or potential cure in a universe where we can resurrect someone who was completely, beyond the shadow of a doubt dead.

Yes, it cost a load of credits.

I think I have enough platinum / palladium / etc. to cover the bill.  I certainly scanned every inch of every planet just about.

I think I have some off the best medical minds to throw at the issue.  Combine their brain power with the hanar who are working on the program to adapt the drell and we might get ourselves a breakthrough.

I also have half zombie / cyborg lungs, Thane can have one.  Bacteria can't kill what's not alive!

Hmm.  If we get a cure  / treatment, would that mean no more delicious drellchest out on the field?  If we get shirtless frisky Thane at some point, I could live with that.

This post just screams with win.

Actually, something that always bugs me is that drell have a lifespan to about eighty years. Humans can live "if they're lucky" to 150...I guess the question is whether Shepard's genetic modifications greatly increases her life, or is slowly wearing away at her body. I imagine the answer is "greatly increases", because most romanceable characters have your lifespan--or longer, in Miranda's and Liara's case.

So, it sort of sucks that, even if Thane is cured, he has about another forty years to live. And then Shepard has at least another seventy years.

Indeed, any way you look at it, Thane will die before Shepard. Still, more time would be appreciacted as people love to send time with the people they love. I would love to have Shepard's life span as well as the cybernetics. That would be fun.

[JECWSU]

Yes humans have a longer life span but that doesn't mean she will live longer. Shepard could die any number of ways. She already did once. This is also a universe that brought someone who was dead for two years back to life. There could easily be something to extend his live past those eighty years. I'm not saying that should happen, but you never know. However much time they are given I'm sure they will enjoy it. Even if Shepard has to spend seventy years without Thane she still has her memories of their time together. I just want them to have that time, and not have him die before or during ME3.

@Saibh you're right. Although at the same time a few years is better than a few months. Its basically taking the good with the bad. I dislike the saying, "it's better to have loved and lost than to have not loved at all" but there is some truth to it. It was better to have had those moments with Thane than to have had none. Or as Liara said, "it's not about the quantity but the quality of time" Either way you look at it, losing what you love hurts. Love can and does hurt but, there is nothing better.

Metal body? Remember the metal body. I'd rather have that. At least I don't have to deal with the pain then and if someone loves me then, well, bonus I suppose. I agree, it's about the quality of time and not how long it is. It's not how long you've got, it's what you do with that time. And yes, it's true, Shepard could die at any time but if we assume they both survive to the fullest of their life spans then Thane will die first. However, I think Bioware are going to pull some sneaky tricks in ME3 that will end with Shepard's death. Hmm. That metal body would probably look tempting if Shepard only knew.

[Saibh]

I think Thane's romance was engineered to be the most depressing possible. I really do.

I hope we get something good in the end to show for it.

[General Ashous]

We better do. I think we need something to show for his friendship too. We need Thane and we need him in ME3. We also need him to be cured. Not too much to ask for if you ask me.

@General Ashous you are incorrigible! LOL Metal body be danged. Your true love is to just love you but where is your contribution to this auspicious occasion? You see, now I have to take back my original say regarding the metal body. I wish you be blessed with finding someone you fall madly and totally in love with! That'll teach you.

Not going to happen I'm afraid. Ask any of the people I have asked out and you'll discover that I recieved the sam answer from them all. Guess what it was. Besides, I've sworn off love, too painful and not worth the effort, metal body is though. Also,  I will be taught no lessons by love, only by metal body. True love is just a term, all love can be corrupted somehow. I have contributed plenty, I agree Thane love is worth it and there should be true Thane love as that is one of only a few loves that can be true. Thane love is worth it and Thane friendship is worth it. Basically, only a few people are worth it and Thane is numero uno. Therefore, I understand the concept of love but I just prefer the metal body over it, at least then it won't hurt. But don't worry, I take your point and your blessing, the former is possible but not for me and the second isn't likely to happen. However, I thank you for being a friend to try and dissuade me from this path, I'm just too stuborn though.

The lifespan thing occurred to me at some point as well, but then it was brought to my attention (I think by IccaRa) that there is a difference between something like galactic standard years and earth years.  And this difference helped equal the ages out a little.  I will need to find this conversation again to be more specific, though, or trudge through the wiki.  That could take a while.  We'll see!

The information about drell lifespans in is in the Codex--which would be in Earth years. And it's Shepard who gives out the average lifespan of humans.

I'm pretty sure it's all in Earth years.

EDIT: I thought that perhaps the reason drell lifespans are so short is because there are so few of them, and they live beneath the hanar's rule. The hanar's interests are their interests, and they don't have all the time and resources to expand their lifespan, as several billion humans do.
