You always get the best action shots. He really looks like an assassin here.

I believe this shot from Mordin's loyalty mission. When they are coming out of that truck.

I thought so.
Do I still get a cookie, or maybe more great screenshots from 51ha?

Of course! You do the drellickers proud with your knowledge .

A Kirby cookie!
If Sable Rhapsody was here, she would love this. Unfortunately, she hasn't been on for AAGGGEES.  She does some brilliant character banter sketches. But then again, so does Kim.
So then, how long til they do a ladies Thane T-shirt? They have a Garrus one out. It's only a matter of time...

[hanar05]

Wow! Another lot of brilliant screenshots from 51ha!
Thanks again for sharing!

[JECWSU]

Thanks for the Kirby cookie Tasha.

I haven't seen Sable around for some time now. I miss her short stories. Maybe Kim can write one. I saw the Garrus T-shirt, and I think it's great. I might get funny looks if I wear it out in public. I don't really know what one for Thane would say.

I'm glad you like the crazy character banter!

And speaking of Sable's writing... I miss the Saren fanfic updates.

Sure, I can write more character dialogues. Well... I can't think of anything really quick that isn't Saren-based, but you guys could give suggestions. xD

Very first thing I could think of, Thane being welcomed to the Normandy by the Shepard crazy train -

MainShep: Glad to have you on the team, Thane! We needed an assassin to complete our group.
Earthborn Ruthless: Because no group of killer galactic saviors is truly complete without a professional assassin.
Thane: Shepard, tell me you didn't simply recruit a group of murderers to fight the Collectors?
MainShep: ...Okay, I won't tell you. >.>
Thane: *double facepalm* What did I sign up for?
Earthborn Ruthless: A free ride on the crazy train.
Thane: I thought this was the "Jailbird"?
Jacob: What are you talking about? This is the Normandy.
Thane: "Jailbird" is written on the ship in spray paint, if you haven't noticed.
Miranda: *glares at Earthborn Ruthless* Now, where did you get spray paint?
Earthborn Ruthless: From my favorite store on the Citadel! >
Thane: Is it too late to jump off the train?

[Hedgepath]

Great pics 51ha, AWESOME ...I could Thane-a size about that hand placement all day. Always good to see it. You have some really good ones, thx for sharing.........

[Tasha vas Nar Rayya]

I'll get funny looks with the Garrus -shirt on. But I always get funny looks anyway. Perhaps it's because I walk with a limp.
Kim! That was hilarious, I could totally see Jack hanging out with Earthborn Ruthless to spray paint the Normandy. Here is a request for you:
Jack has tripped up Samara, who falls headfirst into Thane. Unfortunately for our normally stoic Justicar, she had her mouth open at the time, and accidently licked Thane's skin.
Samara is now suffering from hallucinations.
Muhahaha!

Of course the two escaped cons hang out together. > And it's kind of funny that they have a similar "style." Earthborn Ruthless also has a shaved head and a couple tattoos.

Challenge accepted!

Miranda: Someone spray painted the Normandy again. >_>
Jack: *throws an empty bottle of paint behind her* Wasn't me.
Thane: You could just let him name the ship "Jailbird." He seems very attached to it.
Earthborn Ruthless: *has blue paint on his hands* Listen to the new guy. I like the way he thinks.
Samara: Is everything alright? I saw Shepard floating outside the window--
*Samara trips on the paint can and lands on Thane*
ThaneShep: Hey guys, wicked paint job you did there-- SAMARA, GET OFF MY BOYFRIEND!
Earthborn Ruthless: *helps them up* Real smooth, you two. Better watch out now. I've heard rumors about the crazy hallucinations that happen after drellicking.
Thane: ..."Drellicking?"
Earthborn Ruthless: Isn't that what the kids are calling it these days?
Samara: I assure you, I'm fine.
*ten minutes later*
Earthborn Ruthless: Mordin, you need to give Samara something for these hallucinations now. She keeps putting credits in Legion and waiting for a tupari to come out.
Legion: Samara-Justicar, this unit is not a soda machine.
Thane: *to Earthborn Ruthless* This could only happen on your ship.
Earthborn Ruthless: Says the man who didn't move out of the way before a justicar fell on him...

[hanar05]

[Tasha vas Nar Rayya]

Kim. That actually nearly made gag on my pancake. Speaking of which: HAPPY PANCAKE DAY DRELLICKERS!!!

Cuz that is what the kids call us folk these days But I'm sure Legion would appreciate the free credits. Hehe! And Thane, EVERYBODY likes Asari.

Apparently... Personally, I'm prefer quarians, drell and turians.

And space hamster! Love that Hanar. Although, I called my Space Hamster Boo, and my Mabari War Hound in DA, Minsc. One day, they will be united across the dimensions and Minsc will become abnormallt attached to Boo.

I like Baldurs Gate

[JECWSU]

Kim I love both of those short stories. Thanks.
As I said before Hana I love those comics. My hamster doesn't have a name. I guess I have to think of one.

I like Thane a lot. In fact, personality-wise he reminds me a good deal of myself, more than any other character in the series. And he's fairly useful in just about all combat (minus crowd-control/close quarters).

But I kinda hope they don't cure him in ME3. I feel like they can make his death really touching moment for the player. Not dying alone, but having the whole team there to remember and celebrate him as he goes out. And Kolyat moving on. If they cure him, I just feel like it'll be a typical Mass Effect easy-button plotline. Mordin: "Shepard, found cure for Thane!" Meh.

Thane's warp certainly kicks ass in particular.
And almost all the regulars on this forum will agree that we don't want a sparkly, magical cure-all for Thane. But he doesn't necessarily have to die in ME3. Although, if he did, I would really appreciate an emotionally charged scene, but would prefer that he 'flamed out' as opposed to 'flame away' on a medical bed.

But there are options other than Mordin finding a miracle cure and Thane dying. My personal favourite would be if Thane had his life artificially lengthened with cybernetics/collector technology or something. An ethically challenging option would be really interesting, and wouldn't necessarily mean a cure for Keprel's syndrome. There are many possible choices that may be available in order to have Thane alive for years to come, prolong his life or to have him 'flame out' in an epic scene.

And Shell, there is a pancake day. And my pancake disintegrated when I tried to flip it
But I did put mashed banana, melted chocoloate and cream onto it. Yummy!

And great pics Ava, save mine or Shell's Drellickers sig if you want one that shows up. You can put it on photobucket then put it in your sig that way.

Would be fun if you had to, say, choose between saving Thane and delaying the mission (Thane would of course object)/Sacrificing the other squad member with you on the mission or maybe having something like doing some weird experiments on innocents to save Thane (Not that harsh though, but something, like you said, ethically challenging.)

Somehow, I don't think that's going to happen. I believe he will die in ME3, and as he's my 4th favourite character (Garrus, Tali and Joker all coming before him), he will be missed. I somehow want him to go out in a blaze of glory, using his last powers to save the rest of the squad and then finally going out on the battlefield. As long as Bioware doesn't do like ''Whoops. Two years has passed and Thane's dead. Sorry'' for ME3, I'll be happy.

[Tasha vas Nar Rayya]

They won't. I'm pretty sure of that. Bioware invested A LOT into Thane's character. Including creating a whole new species for him, and making him an LI. Also, as of recently, the drellickers have noticed that Bioware are making a big fuss of the whole 'cure Thane' thing.

However, I too would like something like what you put in the first paragraph: morally conflicting. Maybe it's the tragicist within me, but Thane is dying, and even if that were to be reversed, something bad would still have to come out of it. I think it will be optional whether or not he goes out in a blaze of glory in ME3. Although I will do a playthrough for each outcome, it's only to explore his character.

I really look forward to how Bioware deals with Thane. I think they'll do it well.

[Nodscouter]

Anyone listened to his cut romanced death dialogue here?:
http://social.biowar...5/index/6076107

Damn shame it was cut, ''You look beautiful, my siha. I hear, the sea''. Goddamn it Bioware, why wouldn't you let us have those awesome lines? Jacks line even made me slightly give a **** about 'er.

[Kim Shepard]

Glad you guys like the character dialogues. And hanar, that's a cute comic. I know a lot of people checked on their space hamsters really quick after the crew abduction. I haven't named the space hamster, but now I think I'll have to...

MainShep: I call him Fluffy.
Saren: "Fluffy?" ...That's not a very threatening name. "Killer" is much more fitting.
Thane: For a space hamster?
Saren: You'd be surprised what they're capable of.
Earthborn Ruthless: I'm calling him Tribbles, and you can't stop me. *evil grin* ...Say, how about we buy another one?
Everyone who knows what he's talking about: NO! o___o
Thane: The Jailbird is chaotic enough as it is.
Earthborn Ruthless: Well, fine - but I thought trapping the Reapers under a sea of cute alien fluffballs was a brilliant plan.
Thane: It's not one of your better ideas.

As for the serious conversation, I pretty much agree with everything Tasha said about Thane's fate in ME3.

[Capt_Flashheart]

If Thane was to be given an emotionally charged death option, dieing in heated combat could be too chiche. I've seen many death scenes in movies and games alike. The most heartwrenching deaths are the ones where you know it's coming a few minutes before it happens, and all you can do is sit there and say to yourself "Please don't...".
It's even more touching if the dieing person has just done something to help his friends, e.g. Jacks death in Lost. Just my opinion though.

This happens a lot with my favorite characters. ): But maybe Thane won't follow the pattern because, unlike the majority of my favorites, he's not the villain.

Icy what you did there.
Seriously though, you didn't want Saren and Collector General to die? You felt sorry for them?

Damn! It's not fair if all the Shep (m/fem) can get a happy ending but not ThaneShep. I never wish a loved one die in a blaze of glory. Always, if will be hope, I choose a life. Death is death. This is not correct and do not replay. This is true not only for Thane, but also for other characters. If, however, I have to choose, I prefer to sacrifice my Shepard.
And about Kolyat - the war is not the place for children.

I have 3 complete games in ME2. All of them ThaneShep. If BW would kill him, then, of course, I'll buy ME3, but finished it only once, without DLC. And try to forget about it. I do not like stories with a bad ending.
