Who's the dumbest person in Heleus?

That broad that went out on her own and had a baby. Wish I could've left her to the Kett.

Jill and the person who unfroze her. Who the fuck needs a repopulation specialists in a time where food is scarce, the planets are less than habitable, and a race of genocidal imperial walnuts are murderizing about?

Liam

Looks like we're gonna have a lot of candidates. Maybe we should limit it to Darwin Award winners. Liam and Cassandra are off the list then since they survive their own stupidity.

though question... there's so many candidates... i'll go with the guy who was sabotaging the nexus at the beginning, just because i don't want to copy the other replies.

Agreed, though she probably figured she could negotiate a deal if he were willing to back her.

The Archon, or maybe Unnamed Kett #734. Basically any Kett is going to win a stupidity contest and not because they fight against the protagonist

More because of the fact that exaltation is their only means of reproduction, and once everyone has been exalted theyll have no way to reproduce so the Kett will become extinct. By focusing on transforming people into Kett, theyre actually killing themselves. Focusing on devising a way of reproducing again would make much more sense, even if it meant cooperating with other instead rather than exalting them.

So if you think about it, everything the Archon and every Kett do are actually causing the extinction of their species. Theyre just dragging millions more of their own kind down with them by exalting people. Good... plan??? I mean, say what you like about everyone in Heleus, but iirc none of them are actually dooming their entire species

she does have great hair though

Addison. Her heart is in the right place, but her execution is suspect and she doesn't listen.

She trusts the wrong people while ignoring warnings from Sloane and Ryder, refuses to grow a spine for most of her career in Andromeda unless it's when getting into a shouting match with Sloane, gets people hurt or killed out of her own selfishness/cowardice, and she does not own up to her own actions even when repeatedly called out for her BS.

Spirits, I thought the whole "My face is tired" was bad.

I wonder if she pulled any of her nonsense in meetings when Kesh was present, hearing someone going on about the importance of reproducing when your species has a high rate of stillbirths would be hard to hear


And Number Eight ranks firmly below whoever thought it was a good idea to put him higher in the succession than Addison or Kesh


Just remembered a minor dumbass, that guy you have to rescue at least twice on Eos and he's not a bit grateful about it iirc
