I didn't have a topic in mind this time. How about we try awesome characters we like across fandoms or characters that just make you think?
I never played any of the Mass Effect games but that never stopped me from googling it to death. For me, Thane Krios, an assassin of the Mass Effect, series seemed pretty awesome... and he broke my brain. I can't remember if I was reading a synopsis of his personal philosophy on his own autonomy or if I watched a clip, but the whole I am just a tool used to kill people the same as a gun used to kill people thing broke my brain a little. Maybe that is the human insistence that we always have a choice and can take control talking.
But. I'm pretty sure I still don't fully get the point of what he was saying about his own autonomy; however, kudos to BioWare for actually making me have to stop and think about something a character said.
Also, he seemed to be a pretty rounded out character, at least in the second game. *cough*from what I can tell from stray clips and player commentaries*cough* I like it when characters are developed enough to where you can put down the greater story they are a part of and their story is still at least somewhat interesting, or at least their personality and character make up is still interesting. Sometimes good characters get bad backstories.
