Tin Foil Skirt and Thigh-High Boots - Ashley Williams Thread

It was out of place and weird. My question would be; Just because it was put in the game as a option are we obligated to discuss it as a character trait for Ash at all? A renegade Shep can be a total jerk if you role-play him that way. My Shep was not a jerk. The Ash I know would not shoot Wrex in the back without warning. My Ash and Wrex were best friends. Sorry, I just can't discuss this. Didn't happen in my canon world state. 

I'm not sure if I remember it right, because it was two games ago now, but I remember that you (Shep) has a quick word with Ashley and Kaidan after Kirrahe tells Shep that Wrex needs to be "dealt with". Ashley said something along the lines of "be careful, we'd better be on our guard" or even "be careful, i'll be on my guard." I took it to mean Ash was telling Shep that she would back him/her (her in this case) up, and was asking Shep if she could pull a gun on Wrex if necessary. Shep then nodded or agreed as if to say "permission granted". That was a FemShep with a good rapport with Ashley, maybe Ash steps in a bit more if you Shep has shown interest in romancing her or if your Shep has taken a dislike to Ash and never talks to her.

Whow, just read the wiki, that's a lot of options!

To be fair, I don't actually know because I've yet to fail to talk Wrex down, I'm too fond of Wrex myself. It's the main reason I got ME1 at all, and I've yet not to have found his ancestral armour. In terms of Ashley's character, I can see her acting without permission only if she was afraid that Shep would order her not to, or if Shep's trust in Wrex was so great that he/she failed to see the possibility of Wrex turning on him/her and not discussing it with Ash and Kaidan first. I guess she's a good soldier, and threatening to kill her commanding officer, whether it looks certain or not, is probably a good way of getting Ash to shoot you first and ask questions later.

I HC that Ash is fully prepared to shoot Wrex at that point (possibly not from behind with a shotgun, since that looks like the hardest way to kill a krogan quickly ever, might let her use a sniper rifle. Wrex would then know.) and then in ME3 she apologises to Wrex, having held Shepard at gunpoint as well by now. Wrex of course dismisses this, he'd have done the same in her position. But Ash at least told Shep what she was doing , first.

We need a Ash pic on this page!

I never did understand those weird shoulder things she wears.  They seemed...well...stupid, to me at least.  Liked the rest of her outfit though

Why not try both?

I'm going to go a bit off this thread for a moment and ask something to my fellow ash fans.

does anyone else wish she had a tough girl moment? I kinda wish, at some point in the series, she kicked the shit out of a korgan, while on the citadel. Not shoot them ofc, but actually put in him the med center/hospital, for a week. Something to show the galaxy, that she can be just as tough as Sheppard, when she needs to be.

I would've preferred her showing up in the car lot for my femshep instead of........

I still think they pretty much ruined her look in ME3

Yeah she didn't really need a makeover.

Hey guys, we are still missing some of the veteran Ashley fans from the old forums. Guys like DWH, Cptain Data, survivor686, etc. I sent a couple messages to Survivor and JasonShepardN7, we had a way to contact each other through the Fanfiction website (we read and edited each other' work).

Is there a way you can get a hold of them? These forums are becoming more and more similar to the good Ash threads we used to have in the previous iterations of the BSN.

I saw this tribute before, didn't like it at first because the chorus of the song was a bit meh, but it grew on me, and it has nice editting.


I will say though, the best tribute to ME also had a lot of Ashley in it. I wish that guy would do an Ashley tribute. I bet he would nail it, that guy is very talented. I've linked it before in this thread, it's by Genol3oost on Yutube,  Mass Effect 3 = Remember me.
