Flameweilder this is the armor your using as inspiration right?
If someone wants to properly format that so it shows up, please do.
Yes, i agree, I believe in the picture Flamewielder drew they are much smaller. Maybe something like the N7 armor?

I hear ya. I really feel for the artists who worked on Hellgate:London. They did some of the best work I'd seen in videogames only to become victims to a faulty game concept. It would have made a splendid setting for a Mass Effect style RPG.Lord Coake wrote...

The armor would certainly give an edgy look to Samara. Something she would wear when expecting heavy opposition.

I certainly know I would be wary of anyone showing up in armor like that, I mean talk about being confused about whether or not to drool or run for it.

This armor has some late-medieval flares that I toned down in the drawing. The "chain mesh" in the drawing is actually the same texture as Samara's armor in ME2 (i.e. elongated hexagons with a button or stud in the centers). A wide belt or girdle might look nice, in addition to providing something to hang her SMG from. The plate would be gold with the same filigree as her collar/neck ornament. See image for details:

The hips and mid-section are the areas where you'll require the most mobility (at least if you're using Samara's acrobatic fighting style), so I imagine it to be some kind of form-fitting balistic weave with an ablative overlay to dissipate some of the energy from lasers/beam weapons. The upper body/thorax is protected by ablative/balistic plates, being the most commonly exposed part of the body when firing from cover.
Legs have 2 articulations that require mobility (knees and ankles) so you'll have flexible weave in the articulations but plate around thighs, shins and footwear, with knee guards and ankle guards for increased protection in the front.
The helmet is a quick draft inspired by her face ornaments, with smooth ridges evoking an asari's tentacled head and remeniscent of her shoulder guards in ME2. Wide eye-openings or visor provides good field of vision but mostly showcases Samara's eyes.

Recently, most Samara-related activity has been going on in the Jack thread...
But... that sort of stuff should be happening in the Samara thread! And not, you know, bumping the Jack thread!

It was a good discussion about whether or not Samara would be compelled to hunt down Jack after the Justicar's mission to Shepard is complete.

Obviously not in the "Boob Theory" or "The Prize" threads. There is a little more action over in the Jack thread.yorkj86 wrote...

The Jack thread is good, as you know.
I lament the fact that Bioware just didn't give us enough Samara to talk about for this long.

This was why I wanted to broaden the discussion here a while back. As long as we don't forget about Samara and still include the character some. No one seemed too interested in the idea though. We have a good group of posters here when they post.yorkj86 wrote...

I think Bioware gave us the same amount of material for both characters to talk about. I mean, what are they talking about that we aren't? Role and relationship with Shepard, Relationship with other characters, future in ME3, fan art, fanfics... what are they discussing that we aren't?

I guess I meant that we weren't given a lot of material in that Samara doesn't let us "in" much, so most analysis is superficial, and anything specific tends to be speculative?

I've only ever seen you guys talk about connections with obvious characters such as Shepard, Morinth and maybe Jack; how do you think she views other characters such as thane, grunt, kasumi and others that dont easily connect with Her (with capitals now...)?
I suspect she finds Thane rather interesting given his past, I mean what do you think Samara's reaction to Naressa would be if she weren't letting Shepard lead? I don't see her doing anything other than agreeing with Thane killing her after seeing the dead workers.
Grunt...I really don't know. I mean Krogan have alot of instincts going on inside that dictate what they do. I'd realy have to think about that.
Kasumi I haven't recruited yet, hopefully I will get around to it soon.
