What did you do today in ME?

It's time for another run! This place looks half-dead, oh no!
Played through ME1LE already over the past 1,5 weeks and will post the major stuff for each game.

Louisa "Lou" Shepard grew up in the streets, witnessing much crime herself in her early years and even being part of it. At some point she wanted to be done with this life and instead found an opportunity to pursue a career where she could get the bad guys to make the world a better and safer place for everyone.

She's a vigilante and Garrus will become her best friend in the trilogy for obvious reasons I was thinking a bit about the Boondock Saints movie and decided to play a character inspired by that. She will punish anyone who deserves it in her eyes, longing for justice where the authorities would turn a blind eye. She has one rule though: no innocent life should be sacrificed in the process of her chasing a criminal.

This Shepard will be my first Thane-mancer and I'm curious to see how it all plays out. Her skill set from ME2 onwards will be similar to the Turian Sentinel in Multiplayer, using mainly Warp, Overload and Tech Armor, and I will give her slow-firing pistols for this one (Stiletto in ME 1, Phalanx in ME2 and Executioner in ME3).

- After leaving Eden Prime and becoming a Spectre, Feros was first. No casualties among the colonists, Shiala was spared, Jeong was an ass so he died.
- Therum next to pick up Liara. Dead krogan and geth.
- Virmire time already, let some salarians go and killed some others, killed Rana because she deserved it, sadly nuked Kaidan again in this run... Wrex is alive and kicking.
- Bring down the Sky, unfortunately let Balak go because reasons.
- Hit 80% Paragon and finally managed to save ALL the scientists, which took me 4 attempts or so
- On Noveria, gave Qui'in the evidence, but didn't talk to Parasini first so she got super mad at me. That was a new one At Peak 15 I also witnessed some new stuff, can't believe I never did that before!
After meeting Ventralis, went to the Hot Labs first this time, only to return to Ventralis and his team trying to kill me, resulting in me killing everyone there. Saved Han Olar from a commando just in time! Interesting new dialogue for me. Finished off Benezia and let the rachni queen go.
- Chose to fight Saren at the end since I didn't think the Paragon option fit Lou and I didn't invest enough into Renegade for that one. Died in the 2nd part of the fight because I forgot to keep my barrier up and a sniper one-shotted me
The Council lived to see another day. Recommended Anderson as councilor.

Further baddie kills: Fist, Jax, krogan blackmailer, Finch, dumb scientists, Dr. Saleon, Elanos Haliat, Charn, Helena, Captain Ventralis and his entire team

Pic time


My team was Garrus and Kaidan until Virmire happened, then I switched to Garrus and Wrex, except for Noveria, where Liara accompanied Garrus and Lou.
I am so not prepared for ME2, I have not planned who I want to kill off (if I actually DO wanna kill off a squaddie ). I have to consider. Or maybe for once I'll just go with the flow and see what will happen
