Liara T’soni

Tali’Zorah

Jack

Maybe your affinity for Jack started erstwhile you were a cartoon-watching kid who felt weird whenever Shego, Sam Manson and different goth characters were connected screen. For amended oregon worse, goth chicks are unequivocally your type. Jack is callous, arrogant, and feisty arsenic hell, but nether that pugnacious exterior is simply a miss who desires immoderate stableness and you privation to beryllium that for her.

Jacob Taylor

Jacob is simply a cutie with an ironing committee booty but he’s besides the benignant of feline who thinks that being mysterious was attractive. It is not.

Lucky you.

Garrus Vakarian

Say it with maine everyone: There is nary Shepard without MF Vakarian.

Sure, helium starts retired arsenic a glorified abstraction bull with each the antagonistic connotations that travel with it, but by god, you tin alteration him.

You similar a antheral you tin marque playful back-and-forth jokes with astatine some of your expenses, and you don’t person a occupation with conflict scars. If anything, the scars dial up his already dime presumption to a crisp dollar bill. Happy calibrating.

Thane Krios

Oh Thane, what could person been. You might’ve rolled your eyes astatine Romeo and Juliet backmost successful mediate schoolhouse but look astatine you now: applying clown constitution yet again truthful you tin outcry implicit this sexy dying amphibian antheral each implicit again. You emotion tall, dark, and brooding sickly men. Your Timothée Chalamets, if you will. You besides emotion a antheral with a tragic past and a psyche excessively bully for this world. I salute you for your service.

Samara

For you, rejection has a cooldown timer. And you’re arsenic diligent arsenic the beatified Buddha himself if it means being capable to stock communal soundlessness with the almighty justicar, Samara. You emotion a spouse who intelligibly has their crap together. I’m talking astir a vocation pistillate with a 401(k) and a bully recognition score, who lets you bargain the Lindor truffles successful Barnes & Noble’s checkout area. You wanted her to measurement connected you from the infinitesimal you archetypal saw her ragdolling that Eclipse lieutenant.

Javik

There’s nary bully mode to accidental this: Javik is the walking explanation of “don’t conscionable your heroes.” Upon discovering the long-lost Prothean, you rapidly find that he’s rude to everyone helium meets and helium boasts similar the feline who peaked successful precocious schoolhouse whenever bullets commencement flying. Which is wherefore your locomotion of shame retired of Anderson’s flat successful the Citadel DLC hits arsenic hard arsenic it does. But similar the prophet Megan Thee Stallion erstwhile said, “it ne'er happened if the dick wasn’t snappin.”

Morinth

First and foremost, you’re a monster for sidesplitting disconnected Samara, truthful let’s conscionable jot that down. Second, the crippled virtually warned you that they/them blussy would termination you. Was it worthy it?

Samantha Traynor

Samantha Traynor mightiness beryllium 1 of the astir technologically dependable crewmates aboard the Normandy, but let’s beryllium honest, homegirl has nary societal skills. The min-maxing of her tech proficiency turned her into a pistillate who trips and tumbles done each speech she’s ever had. And you emotion that small nerd.

Steve Cortez

Steve is similar the odor of freshly baked gingerbread cookies connected a acold wintertime Christmas. While you emotion however helium makes you feel, you can’t assistance but consciousness a small bittersweet astatine the information that your clip with him is fleeting. This isn’t due to the fact that dude is gonna dice oregon whatever, it’s mostly due to the fact that Bioware didn’t truly constitute a batch of interactions for you two. That’s tough.

James Vega

Did you cognize James works out? Of people you did, helium won’t halt talking astir his gains. While connected insubstantial James should beryllium annoying arsenic each hell, this loveable swole begetter gets brownie points from you by virtuousness of him not subscribing to quality dildo Andrew Tate’s clown shoes doctrine connected women. You similar ‘em big, you similar ‘em chunky, and you similar that they respect women.

Kelly Chambers

Tensions are precocious aboard a spaceship and you don’t ever person clip to thin to your loyal unit and space-fish oregon space-hamster. Kelly’s occupation aboard the Normandy 2: Electric Boogaloo is fundamentally to execute psych evaluations connected your heroic crew’s clump of daddy issues and study backmost immoderate atrocious vibes. Why that would besides see her giving Shepard her champion “White miss successful a cause commercial” lapdance successful his backstage quarters I don’t know, but past I’m not a space-psychologist. If you romanced Kelly, you person a compliment kink and privation your mobile therapy app didn’t complaint you aft its proceedings period.

Diana Allers

Yeah, this 1 is beauteous wide cut. Go with God.

Cora Harper

Cora Harper is, successful each mode but physically, an Asari. You romancing Cora means you besides wit your spouse contempt them professing the healing prime of Himalayan crystals, their dogmatic devotion to horoscopes, and their insistence connected hanging up that culturally appropriated partition rug supra your bed. You cognize the one. She means well, but you’re dating a Karen. At slightest Bioware enactment immoderate spice into her and Scott’s “beast with 2 backs” emotion scene, truthful you’re not holding each L.

Pelessaria B’Sayle (Peebee)

This is gonna dependable mean but instrumentality it however you will: You work Scott Pilgrim and decided girls similar Ramona Flowers are your type. No shame. I’d beryllium remiss, though, not to notation that not each idiosyncratic with colored hairsbreadth dye likes being treated similar an exotic creature, particularly if they hap to beryllium a bubbly Asari similar Peebee. Transparency is important to you and you emotion idiosyncratic who’s spontaneous, funny, and unafraid of voicing her intentions.

Vetra Nyx

Vetra Nyx is what Spike Spiegel meant erstwhile helium said he likes the benignant of pistillate that tin footwear his ass. You swoon for the sarcastic types and you get anemic successful the knees whenever she suggests a romanticist escapade.

Reyes Vidal

You’re a sucker for a creaseless talking Han Solo-type that your friends accidental isn’t bully for you. But what bash those friends know? They’re excessively engaged complaining astir different people’s houses portion theirs has roaches successful it.

Jaal Ama Darav

Much similar Idris Elba (or society’s parasocial presumption of him), you emotion a antheral with a deep, commanding dependable who besides isn’t acrophobic to dial backmost his machismo and amusement disconnected his brushed side.

Gil Brodie

Of each the underwhelming M/M romances successful the Mass Effect series, Gil Brodie manages to beryllium 1 of the much endearing ones. If you romanced Gill, you similar idiosyncratic who’s comfy successful his ain tegument and takes complaint erstwhile you guys get physical.

Liam Kosta

Romancing Liam Kosta is similar romancing your puerility person that you 1 time decided to nary longer conscionable beryllium friends with. Although transitioning from cracking unfastened a acold 1 with your bunny lad to sneaking distant determination quiescent to snog him is inactive weird to overcome, the awkwardness of your blossoming romance keeps you happy.

Suvi Anwar

Sure, Suvi Anwar is simply a spot of a weirdo for admitting she licked abstraction rocks unprompted, but you’ve got a brushed spot for quirky girls that spell brrr for abstraction shit. You similar the benignant of idiosyncratic who volition instrumentality you connected a day to the depository and volition work each plaque aloud to you.
