^^Sorry, forgot about that. For the fifth point, Morinth definitely does count as a KarmaHoudini if she survives the mission. Whether or not that\'s acceptable is up to the player and what decisions they made in the game. I will say that the story ISN\'T about Shepard\'s quest to kill Morinth. It was about his/her quest to stop the Reapers. They accomplished that goal. Morinth is a sadistic, remorseless SerialKiller, but compared to a race of EldritchAbominations that want wipe out all life in the galaxy, she doesn\'t take priority right now. Her threat only comes if Shepard is TooDumbtoLive (I definitely think that scene was put in to emphasize her cruelty but I will admit, how stupid is Shepard being then?). If your Renegade Shepard is a KnightTemplar they may see allowing Morinth to live and be their asset as an acceptable accomondation right now. But Morinth gives no indication that she plans on reforming her ways (and again the NonStandardGameOver just leads further credence that she won\'t). If was the BigBad or a TheDragon then her living at the end of the game would never be considered a \

If she was the BigBad or a TheDragon then her getting off scot free at the end of the game would never be considered a \\\"Happy Ending.\\\" But having saved the galaxy again, her being alive at the end adds for an element of a BitterSweetEnding It\\\'ll hurt even more though if you lost favorite characters during the Suicide Mission and she\\\'s one of the ones you\\\'re left with.

\\\"Part of the reason it\\\'s difficult to place her is because there is no canon to Shepard\\\'s choices. So we must either assume all his choices are canon or none of them are. Since assuming none would be silly we might as well assume all of them are. So She not only kills her mother, but you as well. That\\\'s enough on-screen villainy to qualify.\\\"

I like this point a lot actually!
