I don't think we'll be going somewhere like Kahje or Rakhana, though that would be amazing.

Pretty sure Kahje is virtually completely covered in water, not seeing much use going there if one isn't aquatic.

Mordin is hax. Seriously, when Thane was all, 'ooh, the best hanar scientists couldn't figure out how to cure it' I wanted an option to shake him and say 'You don't understand how epic Mordin is. Bro is curing the krogan genophage on his goddamn lunch break.' (Renegade option: 'The hanar are working on it? What's a BIG STUPID JELLYFISH gonna do?')

Oh man, this drove me nuts. Mordin never even mentions it! You'd think he'd take an interest in something like that. Mordin, I thought you and my Shepard were bros. Bros.

It's worth noting that Mordin has the dialog option where you can ask after the health of your squad, but it's always the same fairly neutral answer ('always some problems, nothing worth mentioning'), even when you recruit people with significant health problems like Thane, Garrus, and Tali. Some people have speculated it might be a placeholder for DLC quests, like fixing Garrus's scars.

He was too busy stalking Kelly and finding out how she brought the scale itch onboard the Normandy. 

Stop pretending to be a detective and look into Thane's damned sickness! It's almost suspicious how much he avoided this subject. Maybe the devs planned to make this story into a DLC from the beginning? Or they wanted to resolve this in ME3.

Maybe Mordin wants to give it to femShep as a birthday gift.

"Happy birthday, Shepard! By the way, was working on this. Enjoy." And hands her a vial labeled 'Super Awesome Mordin-made Thane Cure'.

The lady gamers would probably prefer to have a new squad mate that is a human male bad boy with a lot of confidence and a sense of humor rather than a cured Thane. Am I right?

Not about this lady gamer.

very good point, it could be Drell-DLC with a Thane-specific side-arc.

I was extremely disappointed that we only saw one other drell in the entire game, and encountered zero hanar NPCs. What a step back from ME1. The jellies are actually kind of interesting now.

Some kind of hanar/drell/something DLC would address all of that. Maybe we can visit a colony of some sort? I don't think we'll be going somewhere like Kahje or Rakhana, though that would be amazing.

I would be exstatic if it were some Drell/Hanar DLC... because ever since finding out Hanar train assassins... I cannot get out of my mind how much more sinister their race has become.  My hub and I were talking about how similiar to the whole idea of saving face (like chinese or japanese culture almost) it is.

Because really... why else would a society of uber polite zeolots need to train another race to kill each other? (or other races/heretics?)

The jellies are evil man... you watch.

I'd really like to see a drell that isn't a palette-swapped Thane, actually. Kolyat has a slightly different facial structure, but below the neck it's Thane with a blue tint, I was rather disappointed by that. Now whenever I do his loyalty mission it's all I can focus on.

Fo sho'. The head models are very different (Kolyat is all angles with a sharp jaw, hooked nose and prominent chin, and his cranium is longer as well.) The jacket, though... seriously Kolyat, emulate much? I want to see what other styles of dress drell wear, although I realize this may be a bit complicated considering they're something of cultural chameleons.

Granted Kolyat is better covered than Thane is. He wears gloves and an undersuit that blocks his chest and back. And a mysterious zipper that is in the middle of a zipper. It's... confusing and vaguely twilight zone-ish.

Anyway it was kinda funny seeing them side by side. Half the screen was collars.

Blasto?

I think having our Asari Matriarchal Bartender also be a beautician might be a fantastic thing too.

^ for double collar popin on screen of course!
(but i agree with you. all species need new outfits to fit their lifestyle/occupations)

It could possibility be a new male crew member with a mission? like the character kasumi?
i dont want to have too high hopes >.>

There are islands, and the biodomes that the drell live in. I'd be interested in seeing how BioWare could present such a world... it'd be a lot different from some of the other planets we get to visit. And full of jellies.

[MarginalBeast]

I have nothing against a cure for Thane, I just think they should save it for ME3. Assuming that we can recruit Thane again in ME3 (I'm being optimistic today), that would be a perfect personal sidequest for him.

I'd also love to see some other drell. Especially female ones! Going to either Rakhana or Kahje might solve this problem.

Right! Wasn't seeing all those female krogan on Tuchanka awesome?

Rakhana would be really crazy to see since it is in such terrible shape. If anything i think Kahje would be more likely than Rakhana. I can definitely see a Paragon choice to help the Drell become independent of both Rakhana and the Hanar, and a Renegade choice to expand Hanar-Drell efforts, so Hanar get more servitude, but you still strengthen the Drell. We could be offered a large sum of money to help a shady Hanar... 8)

-.- I'm writing a story about one... sorta >.>

I also feel like making this Thane mission available prior to the Suicide mission makes TONS more sense to me. This completely circumvents the risk of keeping squaddies alive post-suicide mission.

would you guys want this available pre-suicide mission or would you prefer it post-suicide mission?

Should be available pre-suicide mission for the folks who decide just do new game+ instead of continuing to play after the credits roll.

The only difficulty involved in this is that Thane can't really say that he's sick if he's cured before you talk to him on the normandy >_> That's a potential...obstacle.

Then again, it could just be getting research for Thane's cure or something...hmm.

Mr. Dollar, I'd like to point you to the Neck Snap Appreciation Society group here.

The Neck Snap Appreciation Society tends to remain the group with the most views on a daily basis.

I should have kept my mouth shut.

No, I'm glad you got to see the other side by drawing out the Thane supporters.

They would still have a surface based port. Hanar are definitely engaged in commerce enough to justify a port city. I can't help but associate Kahje to my beloved Manaan. Though the Hanar are hardly Selkath...

Manaan was probably my favorite KotOR planet.


HK: Suggestion: Perhaps we could dismember the organic? It would make it easier for transport to the surface. 
Mercenary: Hey! Y-you... you can't rip me to pieces! I'll die! 
HK: Amendment: I did forget that. Stupid, frail, non-compartmentalized meatbags!

Except this would invalidate his romance's climactic interlude before the Omega-4 relay. Post-suicide mission is better.
