I'd think that Kaidan might feel a bit uneasy(?) if Shep has the ruthless background since you get your entire unit killed.


Jilly has hinted at how Kaidan feels towards the Ruthless background in her fic, Lost for Words. It's all been flashbacks currently, but she is exploring how he is dealing with the fact that Shepard is the Butcher.

Been reading a lot of fanfics and i noticed that quite a few of the writers have a femshep who is biotic and can relate to Kaidan more because of it.

So it got me thinking how you guys prefer to do the romance and what backgrounds and classes do you choose to play with. And do you think it effects how you see/feel about the romance.

I usually pick a class that will complement the intended romance's style.  For instance, I romance Kaidan with a vanguard . . . .sh'e also a colonist sole survivor, but that's just the combination I liked best.  I do this with other romances and games as well . . .

Of course from my personal pov I do see my Shep's differently. I chose Sentinel class and the Spacer Kid - Ruthless background for my new Renegade PT of ME1, yet I don't have any intentions of romancing anyone. I really wanna try to stick with the Ruthless story, getting the job done no matter what cost. It's pretty funny actually, because Shep is basically telling everyone to mind their own business and do their job and just not to screw up the mission. LOVE IT! But I haven't played for two days now, since I've been re-doing all of my ff chapters, finished that last night, and I also wanna finish my massive ME meme. Maybe I'll go back to gaming tonight, not sure yet though.

My MainShep is an Adept, Earth-Born and War Hero. She was nice to everyone and after the Finch incident, I liked how Kaidan compared her to himself, how they had both gone through a lot of stuff and all. I REALLY liked that! And the idea, of an orphan finding love in the arms of a man who still has family and is stable, is just such an enticing thought! ^.^

Morning Everyone the Night crew is back online....



About staying on topic and why all of a sudden we are so serious about it... Ash's thread was closed down for going off topic and then they needed special permission to reopen it... that is why we are so serious about staying on topic now.



I am with Sesh on letting a squadmate go ... I don't care who leaves as long as Kaidan stays.



I never Vimire Kaidan... Couldn't even get through my MaleShep playthrough, Couldn't do without the Kaidan.



I always saved everyone... for the last battle I Send Mordin back with the crew (cause in battle he dies easily) and I take Legion and Tali as two of the weaker fighters and let the stronger ones hold the Fort so to speak. I know that Jack is one of the weaker ones .... but I like Legion better, I am not a big Jack fan...



I felt bad for Lilith being smoothied, I mean she was someone as a player I recognized... Shepard didn't know about her so she just felt bad she couldn't save her.



Of course the way FreeLove puts it ... Yeah I am not missing her too much now.



Carry On!!!

phew, *scratches head* it's right after the thing with Finch, when I go talk to him back on the Normandy. I really don't remember his exact words, I will have to reload a savegame for that, if I have one. Maybe comparing isn't the right word, maybe it is, I really can't remember exactly, he definitely acknowledges your backgroud in that scene and stuff.

Morning, everyone!
Popping quickly before going off to work.
I just loved that someone posted this pic--and Shep in my favorite armor, too.  Posted Image

I don't have many screenshots. Ok, I do. I just can't take decent ones. However this one makes me crack up a bit.

Good morning all!

I'd just like to say, on the subject of Off Topic discussion, it really is a concern. Someone used the Tali thread as an example, but the ten thousand page version of that thread was locked just yesterday for being off topic, and Stanley Woo said he would be watching more closely from now on.

I'm actually pretty proud of the fact that this thread has lasted as long as it has without a Bioware employee having to come in and moderate.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with having fun and going slightly OT from time to time, but please, if you start to see the topic veering too much, we can always make a topic in the Kaidan Support Group for whatever you'd like to talk about, without fear of moderation or having the big discussion about what constitutes off topic.

I just want to see this thread continue to be awesome, so we can still be here when ME3 is announced, and be happy together when Kaidan gets an awesome role.

I think the problem is that we see so little of Kaidan in ME2 and what we see is accompanyied by crap dialogue and a cookie cutter Ash/Kaidan approach that could have been so much better.
As for throwing characters out of the airlock to get Kaidan back, once again much of that is said tongue in cheek and to underline how important his character is to some of us..  Hell I've had about 10 playthroughs of ME2 now and haven't lost a single member of my squad, so its not like I'm trying to kill any of them off, lol


I know i was tongue in cheek, yet the Vegetarian talk earlier was the same for example. It just seems to me as if some things are EXPECTED to be tongue in cheek and no one actually bothers to even think about IF their statements may ****** someon off while other things are taken way too seriously. 

and yeah, I know Horizon sucked, but ME2 is a great game and makes up for a Horizon in more than one way! But for that it's necessary to let Kaidan go for a while and focus on the rest! And Shep does! B)


*sighs*
Despite knowing better, I will just quickly comment this.
My post about the named topic was actually meant to be diplomatic - so was my line about keeping my opinion to myself. To explain: I know myself and know how that I might step out of line when I speak about something I believe in - thus I wanted to avoid it. It seems that it has been interpreted that I, as a horrible and mean person, was trying to step on someone's toes. 
It wasn't so much frustrating me that I was basically called a liar and mean and what not -but that I am not allowed to voice my opinion. But alright, that's how it is and I do my best to refrain from speaking my mind whenever it might possibly be uncomfortable/hurtful/off the mainstream... to avoid this situation again. As to me thinking about what I post... I certainly do!
*sighs again and just drowns all her opinions that are not concerning Kaidan in a mug of coffee*

@about Lilith and the doctor: 
I never understood the hate for them either. Lilith stared at Kaidan's butt... ok, but having her smoothied just never really filled me with joy. I was rather frustrated to see that I couldn't save everyone. 
And the doctor, I do belong to the group that didn't mind the doctor and Kaidan having a date. I wouldn't even have minded if there had been sex involved... especially since sex does work in the matter of stress relief and I think Kaidan had a lot of that after Shepard's death. 
I mean no matter what we know - for everyone else, Shepard was dead and after a period of grieving, everyone is entitled to live again, no? I think that Kaidan failed but he has the right to try!

Anyway, the most important part in ME3 will be that Kaidan comes back and that those things that once where will be again.

to be honest, I wasn't really paying attention to who is Vegetarian and who isn't! 
Personally, I couldn't care less if anyone eats meat or not! I know that I was trying to joke about it but that didn't seem to be taken as joke so I just left it at that! 

Whatever, I didn't say you were being a horrible or mean person. All I was trying to do was to compare two topics that had been discussed and that I had seen as tongue in cheek, yet one was taken a bit too seriously, just as this conversation proves, while the other was expected to just be seen as joke, meaning whoever reads it and feels stepped on their toes, should just get over themselves. It was just an example, nothing more! geez!

I'd think that Kaidan might feel a bit uneasy(?) if Shep has the ruthless background since you get your entire unit killed.

Throughout your military career, you have held fast to one basic rule:
get the job done. You've been called cold, calculating, and brutal. Your
reputation for ruthless efficiency makes your fellow soldiers wary of
you. But when failure is not an option, the military always goes to you
first. The Ruthless character sent 3/4ths of his/her unit to its death
and murdered surrendering batarians on
[/i] Torfan.


...:o


As Sapphy pointed out, my Ella (Vanguard) Shepard has a Ruthless background.  (She's also a colonist, so she is irrational with her need to stop pirates/slavers whenever she comes across them.)  In my mental version of Torfan, her Marines were dying, and 'capturing' slavers when you don't have enough people to watch them and advance, and the bad guys know the caves better than you do, isn't tactically smart... you're basically leaving a loaded gun behind you, which is just going to get everyone killed, and then all her people would have died for nothing.  (Which is worse than most of them dying but at least accomplishing something, after all.) 

And she sure as hell wasn't going to attempt to retreat and have to do this crap all over again, even if they could get back out alive, so she shot the prisoners and kept going.  (And whenever possible she did it herself, so no one else would have to deal with the repercussions.)  And Major Kyle couldn't handle it largely because, however much he hated it, he couldn't figure out a different way she could have done things once they were already committed to storming the tunnels, and blamed himself for that perceived failure as the 'good guys'.  (So not canon, obviously, but there you go, my rationale for a primarily paragon Shepard having the ruthless background.  Dead slavers > dead marines > dead colonists.)

While Alenko would like to think there should've been another way to do things, he also knows he wasn't there, and it's better not to waste Marine lives once you're in the middle of a clusterf***.  It provided some tension back on the first [i]Normandy
, but by the time my A/U epilogue comes around, it's mostly water under the bridge.

Probably cause they have so much other crap to deal with.  :P

I think I forgot to share this when I found it - someone made Kaidan and Ashley squadmate designs, ME2 style.

Although you may all already know.  :huh:

I think, he can sleep with whoever he wants! Shep is dead! he can find himself some stress relief if he feels he need to do so! but we all know he's not that kinda guy.
