axl99 posted a superb picture of Samara that she created.

Scroll down, below half-way down the page.

That is the most epic thing I've seen today. Well, other than the old woman I saw that looked like Steve Buscemi.

I'm watching "Youth In Revolt" right now.  Steve Buscemi is in the movie.  GET OUT OF MY HEAD!

  I'm watching it too....

That's the artist doing my Samara & Shepard commission. I love the smile on her face there.

Is he/she making good progress? I can't wait to see it.

That is perfectly fine.  I can understand why people may not like her character, but I also see how much depth she has to offer.  She deals in absolutism.  She's 'good,' but still kills in the name of justic, which can present the player with issues of moral ambiguity.  A Jedi is merciful, killing only when necessary, and believing that people can be redeemed.  (Honestly, she reminds me more of a Vulcan than anything.)  Samara carries the same 'Paragon' demeanor, but is not merciful, striking with a righteous vengeance underneath the control that she has mastered.  And even more so, with a deep-rooted sadness, when it comes to her daughter.  A daughter who merely went on the run for being persecuted (albeit a psychotic one).  "The genetic destiny" of the Asari also brings up some interesting questions.

I feel as if we have only begun to scratch the surface that is Samara.  She has lived for nearly a millenium, is the only crew member to refuse the romantic advances of one Commander Shepard, and even more interesting is the prospect of her attempting to bring a Renegade Shepard to justice in ME3.  I believe her character has plenty more to offer.

it does feel like we've only scratched the surface. 400 years of Justicar stories, surely some of them involve saving a planet from utter destruction

Though it would be interesting if she goes on to places like Omega or Tuchanka (something she has hinted at) and has some more epic stories to tell : )

Chapter Four of Pariah

In other news. Opened a thread for talking about ME3 in the Waffles group, and both me and Eli came to the conclusion that Samara would stay *obviously if you aren't renegade. He's a paragon, I'm a paragade*

Samara - Gone to fight more criminals in Asari space... also, to make room for Liara's return to the squad.

My Reply:

I can see them doing that to make room for Liara - insert me falling to my knees in despair because I am not a flaming liara fan. But for the love of god, if they give "left to fight more criminals in Asari space" as some bull**** answer to explain her going away...

It doesn't make any sense. Not in the slightest.

Quoting myself-

She's supposed to protect the innocent yes?
Mercs and criminals - threat to specific people.
Reapers - threat to EVERY SINGLE LIFE IN THE GALAXY.

Quoting Eli-

Mercs and people getting raped and stuff - Very bad

OBLITERATION - HOLY MCSHITFUCK SOMEONE SAVE US OR WE ARE ALL DEAD AND JUSTICE WONT EVEN MATTER ANYMORE kind of bad.

AshiraShepard, you can make that argument for every ME2 squadmate who survives the suicide mission. There's nothing more important than saving the galaxy from the reapers(and I wish Liara and Ashley/Kaidan got that through their thick skulls.)

I know, I was just drawing attention to Samara because



1- this is her character thread



&



2- The other character's don't have a code which they are fanatically loyal to, that dictates them to protect the innocent. The bigger threat out of typical criminals and reapers, is the reapers.

it does indeed make more sense for Samara to continue her Taking-On-Impossible-Challenges ways. She is also free from her most essential duty, and anything else she could go on to do in her life is small Justicar operations, which are dwarfed by the Reapers.

I hope Bioware Justicar headquarters think so too

[Pacifien]

My thought exercise before heading out. Was thinking about how if you hover behind Joker long enough, he'll make various random comments. So was wondering how they could have done that for every squadmate. Like if you stood around the observation deck long enough, Samara actually starts changing the shape of her biotic meditation ball. Make a comment about the empty void. Comment on Gardner's asari gumbo. Just random things that happen.

[Ashira Shepard]

I would opt to do that...but I would feel like I was bothering her just by standing there >.>

At this stage, all Shepard can do is prepare and gather intelligence on the Reapers. I've always thought that the squadmates would actually disperse to either act as liasons or look for evidence of Reaper incursion or technology. I can see Samara doing more of the information gathering than the liason aspect, though. Every species laid claim to some part of Sovereign, and I'd leave it to Samara to find out what the asari did with their bits of salvage.

That's why there should have been a way to click on the couch so that Shepard could sit down and read a book quietly.

The Justicars do have absolute authority in Asari space.... so that would make sense for her to find out.  Mordin has high level STG clearance.... so that would make sense for him.  Garrus... is batman.  Jack probably has contacts among criminal groups.  The rest... can do other stuff (as long as we get them back).

[Pacifien]

I think every character can have a considerable role in ME3, but not so sure if each one can have a role as a squadmate again.

I always had this fanciful image that Shepard would be in a tough spot and the only thing that got him out of it in the end was the reappearance of Samara to lay the biotic smackdown. Then looking calmly at Shepard and saying "I said I would come for you."
