On the subject of Nihlus, I thought it was interesting that BioWare totally faked us out by giving him a full character profile on the the website (like Tali or Ashley) before the game's release (and not giving Garrus one) which led me to believe he might end up being a Sagacious Zu / Jolee Bindo type character, dispensing occasional advice to the player while serving as a party member.
Then he died. Surprise.

Also regarding Turians I noticed that they explained Saren's head structure as something that was an oddity, but I haven't seen any other Turians like that either.
Does anyone remember what Nihlus's fingers looked like or is Garrus the odd man out?
Nihlus and all other turians share a similar hand model. Saren is the odd man out.
And Saren had the weird cheek plates as well as the TUBES coming out of the back of his head.
Saren was just messed.

Ohh Lividity, linky please!
And I see Garrus as definitely protective of Shepard...he'd understand but be watching very carefully in case the whole thing goes bad.
I would link it if I could find it...
The Mass Effect section of Fanfiction.net is flooded with Garrus fics.
Really?? You mean there are more Garrus fics than Tali fics? I would think Tali had the most, followed by Garrus and maybe Liara.

Zu was awesome.
He just wouldn't stop complaining.

Oh and let's not forget the drell/hanar fems...
Good point about drell, but given that hanar are basically giant space jellyfish, I doubt they have sexes as we understand them. Besides, even if they did, how would you tell the difference? For all we know we've only seen female hanar.

TBH, I thought JE, though having a great story, had kind of shallow characters (by BioWare standards) for the most part. Zu was definitely one of my favorites, though Wild Flower and Silk Fox were pretty well-writen too.

Totally. Maybe it's sexist to say, but I think guys tend to be more visual and girls tend to be more verbal with sexuality.

Considering the fanart I have seen; I am leaning towards an even split between females and males doing them. I am not savvy in fanfiction, so I have no set opinion on that.Ray Joel Oh wrote...

I thought so. Part of that were cybernetics I assumed but the other was that he was part of a minority. I'd be curious if they ever do more designs like him because his character does stand out compared to all of the other turians.silentstephi wrote...

Yea I realize the hanar areevilspace jellies, but even if they're all single sex, we don't know. No codec entry to tell us if they have gender. Be interesting to know.
We know drell have females, but since Thane, Feron and Koylat are the only ones we've seen in cannon, hard to think what their fems would look/be like.
Still... want fem turians. So bad. My favorite OC has gender identity crisis over this fact!

It's just statistical. It doesn't mean there aren't male fan writers. Hell, even Neil Gaiman and David Gaider have been known to write fan fiction. But the majority of fan fic writers (in the reverse of the professional writing world) are female.
According to the artbook, the designs for Saren were actually the very first of turians. Saren was intentionally designed to look intimidating and villainous, the art team designed turians after they settled on Saren. Of course they toned down the evil look but kept many features to support Saren's appearance.silentstephi wrote...

I think Saren looks so distinct is because he's a villan. A really good one too (if you ignore the crappy characterization from the novel.) I'd love to come across another turian with a similar make up though. About the only difference in the turians other than some slight facial shape distinctions I've seen is shorter/curlier frill. That's about the extent of "difference" I've seen, oh other than the obvious "plating"/skin colors. Then there's their tattoos, but those are artificial changes, not natural ones.

Unless you count GameStop. I've only ever seen one female employee. ONE.

Sure, I'm speaking in generalities. Eh, it's not even worth making generalities though. And I've liked a lot of the fics I've read that were written by guys, so I'm not suggesting theres any deficiency in talent or ability or anything.
