N7 Month 2023 ‑ Day 10 Prompt: Rifle
.
The Striker is a fully-automatic weapon that fires high-impact slugs that detonate on contact. The weapon increases its rate of fire the longer the trigger is held, which is devastating if the weapon can be kept on-target.
In an attempt to market the Striker outside of the Krogan DMZ, the gun was designed to be fired by non-krogan, but its recoil tends to off-balance smaller species. Enthusiasts point out that the target on the receiving end of a Striker has far worse things to worry about than its shooter's balance.

I keep thinking of all the characters that never really interacted with each other and how they might react to one another. Anyways so here’s this.
No spoilers for mass effect 3 please <3
Mass effect characters I feel would be friends
If Kaiden stuck around in me2. I feel like him and Jacob would have been pretty close.
• Jacob was only with Cerberus because he felt like they were actually doing something to make a difference but he still didn’t like them.
• Kaiden clearly hates Cerberus. Being a firm Alliance golden boy and supporter of going through proper channels and you know not being a horrible abusive terrorist organization.
I think they could of had some interesting conversations together. Two different perspectives on how shit should get done, but both believe in doing good and hate Cerberus.
— —
I sacrificed Ashley so I missed out on a ton of dialog. But Ashley was a good soldier and a loyal one. A bit flighty imo but I get why.
I looked up some of her dialogue a while ago and I noticed she calls out men being gross a number of times. She seems very protective most likely due to her being a sister.
• Miranda and Ashley would have been a great pair. They are both older sisters who would give anything to protect their family.
• I also feel like Ashley would try to connect with Jack. Idk if it would work. But I think Ashley could get as close as femshep gets to Jack. I feel like Ash wouldn’t take any of Jacks shit and because of that I think Jack would kinda respect her as much a Jack can.
• Kasumi, Tali, Ashley and Miranda imagine the girls nights, dragging Jack to be apart of it. All those girls know how to get into some trouble. They’d be a ton of fun together.
• Kasumi would love James. They’d be cute
• James and Jacob… On the one hand they could be bros. On the other I feel it is very likely they wouldn’t like each other idk why it’s just a vibe I get
• Thane and Samara I think would have been close. They were both experienced in killing people. Both have interesting moral codes. They both have strained relationships with their kids. I would have loved a cutscene between the two.
• Garrus and Thane, I think Garrus could have learned a lot from Thane.
Garrus in me2 thinks what he’s doing is the honorable thing and I don’t get the impression he feels a ton of guilt about it. It honestly seems like he’s killing for himself not for the greater good.
Thane has a very strict moral code about killing, he does not enjoy it but he does it because who else will. I feel if they talked Thane could have led Garrus in a better direction in handling justice, give him a better stance on what he’s fighting for.
• Grunt and Wrex!! They do interact on Tuchanka but not enough. Interactions between these too would be amazing.
• Odd one but I think interactions between Zaeed and Javik would be hilarious. They wouldn’t be friends at all. But i think they’d be rivals.

Preliminary Poll
Ashley Williams
Submission reason:
went from being an flawed but interesting character with a great arc in the first game, to being a barbie doll in the third. they had her going into battle with her hair in her eyes, a cleavage window, and high heels. she also only got like one character-specific cutscene.
Propaganda:
she was designed by a bunch of horny male game devs. don't let the horny male game devs win
