Figured we'd start off with a Krogran appreciation thread with our lovable cynical bad-ass that is so not a clone of KOTOR's Candrous Ordo. This OG Krogan became our reluctant hero who took up the mantle of leadership if Shepard was either loyal or persuasive enough to accept this responsibility. Post any favorite Wrex stories, fan-art, music vids, etc. here. The only picture that I wish became a reality: Wrex bear-hugging Shepard. Storyboard art that was luckily preserved by GiantBomb:

Wrex is awesome! He was one of my most favorite squadmates. Great sense of humor he had...
Such a pity I have to kill him in the first game in order to sabotage the cure and gain krogan forces in ME3. Well... I'll piss on his grave. Krogan tradition demands it.
(Shit, zipzap won't accept any breeding requests for me anymore. Seems like Pathfinder is going to die a virgin in Andromeda...)

This Thread needs more love! Where is your Wrex love??? *snip* I love the Mess Perfect series! It's hilarious. Have a Wrex wallpaper. He was by far one of my favorite companions. On my renegade ManShep run, they were krogan brothers long before Wrex made it official in the 3rd game.

Wrex is my favorite krogan. I do like Grunt but Wrex has got such depth to him like no other krogan except maybe Bakara. None of the krogan can thing past their next meal but he's dreaming of a bright, shining future for his people. He was willing to be an outcast for it (leading to his father trying to kill him) and to return to Tuchanka to fight for it. And he was willing to let the galaxy die in order to get the genophage cured. It paid off (at least in my runs of the game). He's tough and straightforward about his goals. If you get his loyalty, it's for life. Things like Wrex saying that from this day forward the name "Shepard" would mean "hero" - that man is a believer in Shepard and would do anything for him. I kind of doubt Wreav would have felt quite the same. And while Grunt admires Shepard, I also don't think it runs that deep. It's like Bakara said: Wrex is a mutant. He doesn't act like other krogan and he's why they get to have a future.

Wrex is that crazy and badass great-uncle while Grunt is basically your adopted son. By the way, your mention of Wreav makes me wonder... what kind of ME1 we could have with him instead of Wrex as squadmate? My guess is Virmire confrontation would have been a preeeetty easy choice to begin with

It's heartbreaking to watch, but the confrontation scene should Shepard betray Wrex was satisfying on many levels. 1. I loved that players could not get away with a persuasion check on something that important. It was unexpected and realistic that words alone would not make up for backstabbing. 2. I'm glad they did Wrex justice on his ability to take several gunshots compared to that sluggish strike on Virmire should Shep shoot him there. In a way, I'm proud that Wrex stood firmly, still raising his weapon before C-Sec had to blow him out the window to truly stop him. Krogan toughness done right.

I played first ME in my native language and I remember that Wrex greeted me on the ship saying: "Fajna kurwa łajba Shepard"* which loosely translates to "Cool fucking ship Shepard".* I loved him ever since. Also his entrance in Citadel DLC was gold. *Guess the country

Who needs a full landing party when you've got Wrex. Extract from "Landing parties for Dummies": "For best results,simply add Krogan. Mayhem, destruction and mass enemy casualties guaranteed"

I want to see Wrex on the Council. He would get crazy in a hour Wrex attending a diplomatic function probably would go a lot like that scene in Citadel, with Wrex crashing into the room, headbutting delegates and the odd person getting casually picked up and thrown out of the nearest window; Wrex: Sorry I'm late. Diplomat 1: Oh god, he's here!Wrex: This is what I think of your proposal! Diplomat 2: No, not in the face! Wrex: And as for you!Diplomat 3: Wait! I have diplomatic immunitttyyyyy.....Wrex: It's been revoked.

I've always imagined Krogans as being huge fans of human action movies.
They'd probably enjoy any film made in the 1980s (especially those with Stallone and Schwarzenegger), think Die Hard and Lethal Weapon were actual documentaries and might be the only planet in the universe where Michael Bay is heralded as a cinematic genius.

Yeah, I can also see Wrex with Russell Crowe in Gladiator. "Unleash Hell!" Urdnot Wrex the epitome of the Battlemaster.

You know, I think they'd be Game of Thrones enthusiasts! That reminds me of Grunt's literature preferences. Can you imagine a Krogan book club?
