Ok I just checked. Quarians can have 2 kids. Who thinks Tali might have a brother or sister?

2 kids? Well I guess that makes sense. Tali doesn't strike me as someone with a sibling though, perhaps her mother died before umm.... Breeding contracts were negotiated?

Older brother if anything though, she doesn't seem to be the big sister type.

In ME1 she clearly states she was the only child of Rael'Zorah. the mother died in airborne virus when she was a teenager.

I don't remember her saying that. When does she say that? Granted it's been a while since I played ME1.

Who's Woo?
I doubt Christina Norman actually deals directly with the voice actors that much. Game designers aren't voice directors.

And Quarians are only allowed one child, unless the limit is temporarily removed. They have strict population quota's to keep. So while some families may have two, the vast majority will be single children families.

@Scy. She say's it when she first mentions her father. You can ask about her mother to find out more of her family life and learn that her mother died 5 years ago(she was 17) due to a virus. Her mother's name is never given.

If Liz Sroka posted on this thread, in some majorly positive way like "Aww your support is so sweet!" I think I'd go into a coma from the joy.

More likely, she did come here, saw the ammount of posts and the nature of said posts and probably thought better NOT to post for fear of :
1) cause the internets to crash from the immediate influx of posters
2) cause hear attacks in some percentage of the fans here
3) cause yet another percentage (though much smaller) to want to stalk her.
4) not leaving here with her sanity intact

Keep talking to her and she'll mention it, her mother died of the flu.

Also quarians are only allowed one child unless the population is in decline.

For those who didn't read parts of it or ignore it...



Shepard and Tali's son, Rael Shepard, was waiting for his bed time story with a certain degree of impatience.

Suddenly Garrus just remembered that Tali would be upset if he or another one cursed around her son or made him cry.

And an upset Tali mean... Well...A lot of blood with a broken nose, carving trips and shotgun in the ass.

----

This time, Tali was pleased with her guests (Garrus, Grunt and Mordin). They didn't do anything to upset her son (she heard him giggling), they didn't do anything that could break the house – like last time...

After the last incident in her house,she had warned them that if any of them showed up again, she would not hesitate to obliterate their offending presence with a shotgun.

But they liked Rael very much and he liked them too. So she forgave them... for now.

----

"Uncle Garrus... What’s a whor*?"

Garrus only thought was...

Sh*t!

They had to think quickly of a way to answer the question without upsetting Rael nor breaking his innocence yet. And hope that Tali wouldn't hear any of it.

Mordin was the first to speak.

"What he means to say is... Well... your uncle Grunt was raised because of the WAR."

Garrus continued the little lie.

"Yeah. Like your father - he became the hero of the galaxie because of the war against the reapers."

"He has grown mature because of it." said Mordin.

Grunt was confused "What the hell are you talking about? I mea..."

"Shut up !" Said Garrus in a slow treating voice.

Rael looked at his three “uncles,” a bit confused.

"So... Daddy became a man... because of a whor*?"

"YES ! Clever boy." Garrus grinned, patting the head of the young boy.

And his worst mistake would have been to think that he said “war” instead of “whor*.”

I remember the father and the mother dieing thing... I just don't remember her saying she was an only child. I'll trust you on that since I cant find anything to conferm or deny it. I'll go with you on this one.

[Impactisan]

@Scy Lancer



I cant really point to the exact time when she tells it, just talk to her. You will get an option of asking about her father, either after she says she sleeps better. Or after the geth: incursions mission.

[Scy Lancer]

@SL22



No I looked it up. They are allowed 2. That's the only way to keep a 0 population growth also.

She never explicitly says she's an only child.
However, she mentions the child limit at the same time as discussing her family. If hers was an exception she likely would of mentioned it.
There is no mention of a sibling during her exile.
There is no mention by Rael'Zorah of another child in his Aleri logs.
There is no presence of a sibling AT her exile.


Her having a sibling would be a pretty big secret to pull out of no where.


Looking it up is fine and dandy, but the game is more canon then the book. In the game she says they are only allowed 1 child. (If even the book says that)

Something also worth noting about Tali, despite her being probably the most empathetic and selfless character in ME, she's never hesitant to voice her opinion or insult someone who deserves it. In fact, she probably insulted more people than anyone else in the game, when you think about it ("You are an idiot! You bosh'tet! etc.)

I'm not saying that's a bad thing. Quite the opposite in fact, I think it's good, it adds to her character and charm. Just pointing it out. <3

I keep meaning to ask who she insults.  To whom is she speaking when she calls someone an idiot?  

That miserable Volus who carelessly left his credit chip in a store on The Citadel.

While the "Paragon" interupt was close to being Renegade in some ways, I wished we had a Renegade interupt at that point.

Shepard Heads butts CSEC officer and pulls gun on Volus. " I suggest that you make amends to the Quarian."
CSEC grunt : "Hey! That's extortion I am gonna run you in....
Shepard : "Go ahead, heres my ID"
CSEC grunt: "Commander Shepard? THE Commander Shepard the spectre?!"
Volus: *looks at the CSEC grunt* "Is this bad?"
Shepard: "You bet your sorry arses. Right now, I need the Quanrian's fleet co-operation more then I need either of you alive."
Volus : "You can't threaten me...you can't...
Shepard : ready weapon and flips safety off* Want to bet you life on that?
CSEC grunt : Crap! He's a spectre, he can do anything if it means mission success....
Shepard : Lia'Vael, you did say you wanted a that nice transport right?

+7 renegade points.

personally i wanted to kick that Volus to see if he bounced as he fell from the longest stairs in the citadel

Or have Tali turn his suits respirator scubbers off and let him smell his "greatness".

Geth Hunter Alpha wrote...
LOL, Yeah I played paragon mostly but I did choose renegade sometimes, like killing the chopper repairman and shooting the mech w/ the sniper rifle and a rather large quantity on tuchanka. And I gotta admit this is one of those situation where I wish there was renegade option to really tell those two what's what.

@ Glenboy and Gethhunter
Ya, thats the one time I really really wished  there was the more "badass" renegade option to deal with both the csec grunt and volus.

sergio71785 wrote...
Hah.

I do wish we could've helped that quarian out a bit more. Didn't seem right to just let her go after she comments about living off nutrient paste from the turian shelter.

Something like this would've been cool:
Shepard: "It sounds like you could use some credits. My ship is in pretty good condition, but there's always some maintenance that needs to be done. How about you go to Dock 27 and talk to Engineer Donnelly, and see what he needs help with. I'll pay you for your trouble."

That was what I thought the Paragon interupt would have at the very least let me do. I mean, she says she's practically would have starved if not for the Turian shelter and even after choosing the Paragon interupt, both Shepard and Tali just stands there...going "Mmmnnnkays....gotta go...bye!"

I'd still prefer my version or some other "badass" Renegade version though, wanted to make the two bigots hurt.

They are allowed 1 per family. Only under extreme population decline they are allowed to have more. Atleast its good to be a quarian as you can always get a mate and have a kid with them. Not bad at all.

Not enough time in the game to render every aunt, uncle and grandparent tali has. Who knows, they might even all be dead.

I don't need a family tree. Just maybe someone.

Shala'Raan was considered an Aunt, even if not by blood.
She had a father and mother.

Those are the someones. Miranda only had a sister and father. Jacob, just a dad. Garrus barely even mentions his father. Grunt had Okeer, Jack has no idea, Thane has a son and dead wife....

There just isn't time and no real place in the plot to go into depth of everyone's deep family. It might be nice to imagine such extra attention and detail for the characters you prefer, but it's hardly fair for everyone else who gets left in the dust.
