History Characters / MassEffectHumanRevolution

* PowerOfHate: [[spoiler: A missing arm and multiple knives sticking out of him won't stop him from trying to kill Adam]]

* NiceHat: Wears a headdress that looks vaguely Indonesian.

* KnifeNut: Her other favoured weapon is a {{Machete| Mayhem}}.

* KnifeNut

* ReplacementScrappy: InUniverse, none of the Drakes are really happy to have him replace their old marksman.

* NotSoDifferent: [[spoiler: The geth believe this especially regarding the way she fights in cyberspace.]]

* CrazyAwesome: proves himself this by tricking slavers into boarding his ship and then killing said slavers with an Automatic Crossbow while laughing maniacally.

A team of [[EagleLand United States]] [[SemperFi Marines]] assigned to the Durendal as an official presence on the ship, despite the loss of official interest in it. Or a team of United States Marines who are supposed to shoot Colonel Hein a great many times if he ever becomes less CrazyAwesome and more just plain crazy.

The Driver (''Film/{{Drive}}'')\\

* LightningBruiser: Adam is favorably compared InUniverse to Krogan.

A young Quarian on Pilgrimage who meets Adam and Garrus after running afoul of a violent mob. After being rescued, she is hired by Edgar Hein as an engineer on the Durendal.

* FirstContact: The first Quarian to ever delve into cyberspace [[spoiler: and interact with the Geth, made possible through previous interactions with Aleph.]]

A Krogan mercenary whose past is murkier than it first seems. He is also one of the Shadow Broker's many agents.

* BreadEggsMilkSquick: ...although that littering is a bit more serious since he used another Krogan's ripped off genitals to do it.
* CuttingTheKnot: When Adam prepares to go up against a physiopharmaceutically-augmented clone Turian, Adam visualizes a SuperDetailedFightNarration in BulletTime. Then Wrex barrels in and takes the clone out.

* KnowWhenToFoldEm: He might be a Krogan with centuries of experience but he sees little reason to keep searching for Tali after she's kidnapped by members of a cult and dragged onto the streets during an anti-Quarian riot.

* RevengeBeforeReason: [[spoiler: Tries to strangle Bau after learning that the Krogan race has been completely sterile for 15 years.]]

* TameHisAnger: In contrast to Wreav, who represents the full barbarity of the Krogan, Wrex feels similar urges but can keep them in check long enough to make rational decisions...for the most part.

* OffWithHisHead: [[spoiler: He was killed several days before Adam and co. returned to the Citadel after Noveria. His head was twisted off. Except not really, as the final sentence of Chapter 55 reveals he's FakingTheDead and the Turian killed as apparently a clone.]]

* DoomedHometown: Eden Prime. However, it's later mentioned that his family survived due to being out in the countryside instead of in Constant, where the Geth hit.

->''"...They're going to execute us: someone detonated a toxic gas bomb near the bazaar, and they think a Quarian is responsible. They'll beat us, hang us, then burn our corpses, and if we're lucky, they'll do it InThatOrder."''

A Quarian pilgrim currently employed on the Durendal as a mechanic. Provides commentary and technical advice to the crew.

A Krogan female Adam [[spoiler:and Hannibal]] find in Peak 15. [[spoiler:Turns out to be Administrator.]]

* MySpeciesDothProtestTooMuch: While she laments the fact that every new generation of Krogan is bred to be more violent and savage with each generation by the males, she acknowledges that the females of the Krogan species are also somewhat to blame for this trend.

* DarkMessiah: [[spoiler: To the Geth. For supposedly saving them from a human conspiracy to control them.]]

An Asari matriarch working with Saren as per ME canon.

Wrex's half-brother, who is apparently working with the Saren and the Geth.

->''"(Jensen)'s a walking declaration to all the Citadel races that humans are '''WEAK.''' That we need machines to prop ourselves up to keep up with the Turians, the Asari and the Salarians!"''

* NotDistractedByTheSexy: In chapter 26, he films a pair of Asari dancers for analysis purposes and does so entirely straight-faced, without the slightest hint of arousal.
* TinfoilHat: He's certain that the Black Queen is screwing with everyone's minds and that Asari in general do it to appear more attractive. He makes an actual tinfoil hat and puts it on as he explains his theory to Manah.

--> "Well then, there you have it gentlemen. Are you going to show less spine than a petite Asari?"

* RedBaron: "The Madman of Shanxi", for pulling an orbital drop to save Jack Harper and doing far more to hamper the Turians in a light wanzer than most could hope to achieve in a medium or heavy.

One of the Quarian pilgrims saved by Jensen during the Citadel riot.

** Even more impressive since she can't even eat that food; she's a Quarian and they are humans.

->''"What if we had made the Geth to look like this [[RobotGirl Brea]]? The moment they asked 'what is this thing you call love?', we would have had SEX with them."''

Another Quarian pilgrim and survior of the Citadel riot.

* StreetPerformer: Even though Tali finds it to be dishonorable to Quarians, he quite enjoys doing it.

A mute Quarian child, barely even old enough to have his own suit. Prior to the riot, he was cared for by an elderly Omar woman, as his Exiled parents are unknown even to him. The rioters killed his guardian for trying to protect a "suit rat", and he is now in the care of the survivors of the riot. But it seems that there is much more to him...

* NightmareFuelColoringBook: Among his metaphor-filled drawings of the people he's met are four of a huge dog killing women in white masks, which are representative of Jensen killing their Asari mercenary captors. And then that's bondage-fueled drawing of Aya...

* WaifProphet: Aside from being full of very accurate metaphors, his drawings contain some details that a little Quarian boy shouldn't know, such as what a RoaringTwenties aviator looked like or that Jane is part Native American. He also draws Garrus as an archangel, Ryan as a Knight Templar, Aya as a chained angel and Manah as a Succubus.
* TheWoobie: Being both mute and too young to be on his own, he's this even for a ''Quarian.''

An Asari Adam rescues on Caleston. Daughter of Benezia and sister to Liara T'soni.

* AllOfTheOtherReindeer: Her unique... abilities... and appearance make her as much a black sheep of Asari society as if she were an Ardat Yakshi. Turns out that she's an Ardat Samyaza, a different, albeit equally dangerous genetic mutation.

* AcePilot: As chapter 39 demonstrates. Whole squadrons of Geth fighters that think they know how to counter her fighter type are sadly, sadly mistaken.

->''"Take it from me (Lawson), there's no such thing as perfection. Your biotics are exceeded by the Asari, your reflexes are exceeded by the Fiera, and don't get me started on your strength, stamina, and resilience. The rest of the galaxy offers far, far better."''

The Asari Adam married on Elysium.

* BadDreams: Adam gets a lot of these, but Hein exploits these by putting him in a [[LotusEaterMachine Dream Catcher Machine]].

--> Elsa (''VideoGame/FrontMission 4'')\\

* FirstEpisodeSpoiler[=/=]WalkingSpoiler: It's impossible to discuss her role in this fic without spoiling yourself.

* WomanInWhite: Her favoured attire is a white dress.

* [[CantHoldHisLiquor Can't Hold Her Liquor]]: She's hilarious when drunk. It also weakens the hold her Geis has over her, [[InVinoVeritas allowing her to speak of it.]]

* [[EeriePaleSkinnedBrunette Eerie Pale-Skinned Asari]]

* [[{{Geas}} Geis]]: She has a pretty bad one. Some of the other girls at her monastery have even more carved into their brains.

* HeroicAlbino: White skin, red eyes, the works.

* LoveableSexManiac: As the quote demonstrates, he is a lurid chap.

* EvilCounterpart: To David Sarif. An ambitious, smooth-talking, jet-setting transhumanist... who happens to be an utterly amoral monster. He makes an InUniverse CounterpartComparison in chapter 41.

* CounterpartComparison: InUniverse, the first time Adam meets her, he's uncomfortably reminded of Megan. The impression eventually wears off.

** CastingGag: Cumberbatch's probably most famous for playing Series/{{Sherlock}} Holmes, and Adam's AwesomenessByAnalysis fighting style is based off a different rendition of Film/{{Sherlock| Holmes}}. In chapter 40 he pooh-poohs the idea that he could have gotten all of the information on Garrus entirely through {{Sherlock Scan}}ning.

->'''"Voiced" By:''' ''SamWitwer''

* BigEater: Adam's battery system was upgraded so not only does he ''not'' have to eat a candy bar every time he punches someone, but he can use his XRayVision and InvisibilityCloak almost '''[[GameBreaker constantly]].''' Downside: Well as he puts it, it's murder on his food budget.

* AscendedMeme: When it is revealed that she looks nothing like the real Sarah Walker (whose in-universe description is more of Miranda Lawson than the source material Sarah), Jensen makes two popular fandom jabs at her, noting that Brea got the hair colour wrong (Strakhovski and, by extension, source Sarah, is blonde, like Brea) and that the real Sarah Walker's face reminds him of [[{{Shrek}} Princess Fiona]].

->'''"Voiced" By:''' ''[[Series/{{Rome}} Kevin McKidd]]''

* {{Expy}}: Of [[PlanescapeTorment Fall-From-Grace]], according to WordOfGod.

->''"[[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mK1hEbiL_Bo&feature=player_detailpage#t=8s Vvvvvvp - Laser shield!]]"''

->'''"Voiced" By:''' ''[[Film/TheCrow Michael Wincott]]''

** "It's [[VideoGame/{{Syndicate}} showtime."]] Also, the whole being TheDragon to a CorruptCorporateExecutive played by BrianCox thing.

* {{Badass}}: Adam still has it. [[spoiler: Destroying five Asari Huntresses in under a minute? Hell yeah.]]
** BadassInANiceSuit: Briefly becomes this on Noveria due to having to dress up to meet one of Spooky's contacts.
** BadassLongcoat: The same one from the game.

Pallin is DaChief of C-Sec. And he ''[[GenreSavvy knows]]'' he is Da Chief of C-Sec. And that means he knows it is his responsibility to ride herd on talented hotheads like Vakarian and Jensen without keeping them from exercising those talents to keep the galaxy's most advanced insect colony from burning from the inside out. Stern but fair. Also a believer in CoolAndUnusualPunishment.

* DangerouslyGenreSavvy: In chapter 36 he removes [[spoiler: Bryce Lawson's]] CyanidePill before the latter can use it.

* DangerouslyGenreSavvy: He sees right through the "stick a helmet up to check for snipers" move and knows exactly how dangerous Johann and co. are, so he brings a anti-vehicle {{BFG}}, lets Manticore's mercenaries go ahead of his own men and entirely intends to use OrbitalBombardment if that doesn't work.

* OutsideContextVillain: The Deep Eyes at least view [[spoiler: the Black Queen]] as something they've neither trained nor prepared for.
