I don't know who you are. I don't know what you want. If you are
looking for ransom, I can tell you I don't have money. But what I do
have are a very particular set of skills; skills I have acquired over a
very long career. Skills that make me a nightmare for people like you.
If you let my daughter go now, that'll be the end of it. I will not look
for you, I will not pursue you. But if you don't, I will look for you, I
will find you, and I will kill you.


Jeahhh!

@Pacifien: I'm sure Samara can somewhat tolerate the brutality in the movie, seeing as how she's spent a majority of her lifetime tossing around mercs and squishing thier necks, either as a Justicar or Merc.


I just realised something.

Crushing someone's throat and breaking their spine(neck) with your heel isn't brutal?


Well..that's what I was implying..that it is a little extreme, if you don't put the right amount of pressure it elongates the suffering. Like if someone dangles by the neck from a rope but its not enough to strangle you.

Takes alot to snap someone's neck

Heheh, okay Pacifien, I give up :P



Besides, my Pariah OC is like that, you'll get to see just how quick and brutal her fighting style is when she goes all out. She's fond of breaking necks...



Personally I think Liam's character was justified in what he did, it wasn't nice, but I don't exactly blame him.



If I was hurt, both of my parents would go apesh*t on whoever did it and I know my mother would be far, far worse than my dad.

Well, Samara did go apesh*t where her daughter was concerned.



That is a joke.

I would imagine if Morinth was kidnapped by something more dangerous than herself Samara would tear planets apart trying to find her with reasons that its her daughter after all and because its her duty to bring her to justice herself, multiplied by the fact that there's people out there that are more dangerous than Morinth o.o

Something to do with this?

Nah, not even the Collector threat was enough to distract her from taking Morinth down.

Mixed with This :o:lol:

Anyone think its possible to write a believable fanfic where Morinth and Samara collaborate temporarily to stop a dangerous enemy that threatens them both, which ends with Morinth escaping again to let Samara chase her? Or does that sound ridiculously stupid?

For some reason, made me think of Wrex's story about Aleena with Aleena's parting comment "Better luck next time." The only thing is that Samara says the trap she lays out at Afterlife is the closest she's ever been to getting Morinth. Still, a good way to demonstrate the different styles the two would use in the same situation.

It would have to have some imaginative reasons for them to work together, and even then to some it wouldn't be believable. But yes it would offer an interesting perspective to see them work together in some capacity. I might have a go at this...If it fails...you know, take one for the team? XD

Ashira would probably like it better, if it was a Queen of hearts, instead of spades.

Actually, Queen of Spades seems appropriate, since it is the equivalent of the Tarot Queen of Swords. Samara is definitely not the Queen of Wands, Cups, or Pentacles/Coins. She's the Queen of Swords all the way.

I read the Tarot definition of "Queen of Swords", and it describes Samara perfectly.   It's uncanny.

Looked it up for myself...yeah, pretty interesting!

"I am the Queen of Swords and this is my tale.

I have high expectations for my children. Equally high are my ideals for the people of my kingdom.

It takes a certain rigidity to face the gravity of my
responsibilities. This kingdom of Swords is often a place of conflict.
I wield my intelligence and discernment to gain justice.

And justice is my aim. I am no stranger to the darker sides of
the human mind. I know how errant thought can bring about weakness,
scandal and rot in a society. My watchful eye is vigilant.










I have a gift in seeing all injustice and dishonesty, even if it is a faint flicker on the horizon. I view corruption in others as a personal assault. Thus, I will root it out, extinguish it and will have order restored.

As the Queen of Swords I must hold myself with high dignity. I demand compliance for the better good of the kingdom, and I will be respected in my authority.

The reward for loyalty is my kindness. And, those who are in my favor are among the most honored in my realm.

It is my nature to be kind, although I do not have the
luxury of revealing this facet. In my position, showing softness is
considered a sign of weakness, and I must always gird myself, remaining
regal and strong to my subjects.

As the Queen of Swords, my station is a lonely one. However, I am accustomed to solitary. Indeed, my isolation has caused me to be extremely independent.

Because of my independence, I rarely seek counsel from outside parties. I trust my own intuition implicitly. I am rarely wrong about my instincts.

When I am not governing or consumed with the responsibilities of my family and subjects, I spend my time in academia. A sharp and trained mind is a sign of a well-developed and skilled woman.

One of my children once commented that I seem distant and sad.
This cut me to the core. Truth be known, deep beneath my waters moves
an unbridled heart, filled with passion and sensitivity. To be sure, my waters run deep.

But the warmth of my love must often be cooled in the face of my
duties and obligations. If, having a streamlined, organized and effective rule means trading a bit of emotion for austerity - so be it. As the Queen of Swords, I cannot compromise.

My advisors have told me that in my elderly years I will be able
to devote more attention to the softer aspects of living that churns
within me. Until then, the tending of the gardens of my tenderness will
have to wait. For now, being the Queen of Swords permits nothing to
prohibit the proper rearing of my children and kingdom.

I have dark hair with equally dark eyes. I am told I am
beautiful, but I give this little attention unless it serves me in royal
negotiations. I have noticed I have a strong jaw bone (mirroring my
strong will). I tend to be heavy-set, but this is to my advantage
because it gives me more presence. I seem larger than life when I walk
into a room. My presence is such, people would be compelled to bow to
me even if I were not queen.










Should I visit you in the cards, I will tell you get your affairs in order. Set about organizing your thoughts. Untidiness, disorder of any kind is unacceptable.
The time for play and farce is after the tasks at hand is
accomplished. You may balk at my austere ways, but I tell you, they are
effective in results. Further, my tactics, although forceful, always
command respect."

Samara is a little dainty, so I've never though of her as "heavy-set", but she does have wide hips, and powerful-looking thighs.  I can imagine that Samara is very meticulous about her physical fitness, as it can only help her with her duties.  And, of course, she does have that "strong jaw bone".

EDIT: Now that I think about it, I think Samara would think poorly of those stereotypical obese, donut-eating cops.  She would probably question their dedication to their duties.

I was about to say that Spades/Swords works well for Samara, so I definately like it.

Interestingly if I had to chose a card for my Shepard it would be the Hanged Man.
