A sweet Ryder and Peebee Commission <3

One thing I already miss about MEAndromeda is the sheer volume of ambient dialogue.

Like, sure, the amount kind of backfired from time to time and made it so that it was awkwardly cut off by quest triggers and stuff, but it was still really cool that your companions and even your character would just kinda make casual conversation between objectives. I love banter, and I wish there was more of it in ME1/2/3.

STATS:

NAME: Quinn Diaz Espinosa; formerly Quinn Durant AGE:  35+ HEIGHT: 5′11 WEIGHT: 160 CLASS: Engineer ABILITIES: Invasion, Combat Drone, Energy Drain, Overload

ROLE & TITLE:

Officially, Quinn is a “Welcome Ambassador.” Her responsibilities include welcoming new species or individuals of note to the Nexus, acclimating new candidates within Nexus housing, and coordinating with other government or political entities. Primarily, she is known for overseeing the Cultural Exchange Center, and making sure the tours and VI’s run smoothly. Her handiwork is also evidenced in the Nexus Avina, another important aspect to helping Nexus citizens and visitors aboard the Nexus.

BACKGROUND:

Born in 2150, Quinn comes from old blood; a family with a long history of military and civil service. Her father served in the First Contact War, and her mother was one of the original staff to help start the Human embassy aboard the Citadel. With their insistence, she followed their steps, working towards her JD at Boston University before transferring to Citadel University in a human pilot exchange program. From there, she began the obstinate challenge of double majoring; earning a BS in Robotics Engineering before completing her Juris Doctor.

Her parents were not pleased by the small rebellion (and not-so-small tuition), but they could not deny her drive or ambition, either.

From there, Quinn managed to land a spot as a diplomat within the Human Embassy. She helped to introduce and reinvigorate a more human and galactic approach in sharing cultures, communications, and knowledge between races--primarily in the design and implementation of VI projects that later translate to the Citadel’s Avina model in dispersing information. During her time, she meets Nhat, an Alliance soldier, and eventually settles down with them.

In 2180, she gives birth to her first child, naming him Shaun.

In 2183, the Citadel is attacked. Nhat is killed in action.

THE INITIATIVE:

Suffering from the trauma of the attack coupled with the death of Nate, Quinn faces a crisis of faith. She recedes from the expectations of her more diplomatic work, throwing herself instead into hard data and VI programs to help the Citadel function and recover from the attack; primarily in restoring Avina. From there, she created a duplicate copy of Avina from scratch to better compare and troubleshoot her malfunctions. Her superiors are not entirely pleased with the change in job responsibilities, but the situation is still too chaotic to oppose the necessary help.

Regardless, she eventually resigns a year later in 2184, but not without catching attention of the Initiative for her repair of Avina. Wanting to escape the association of trauma and start fresh, she and her son, now four years old, sign on for the Andromeda Initiative, and are assigned to the Hyperion.

Though not a soldier, Quinn had previously received necessary training at her father’s behest growing up, as well as undergoing a refresher course program upon enlisting for the Initiative. She slots herself for the Engineer class program, employing a variety of tools and tricks learned and picked up over the years. Despite being only a diplomat, she shows a vast understanding of VI and AI familiarity in combat--something that even the Initiative’s leadership do not miss. Quinn and Shaun are reassigned to the Nexus’ cryo blocks as a result.

In 2185, Quinn and Shaun are placed in stasis, and depart for their new home.

DEFROSTED:

Her revival from stasis is not according to plan. Initially slated to thaw once the Arks connect and Pathfinders establish more networks and colonies across Heleus, Quinn’s instead violently revived during the mutiny. Damage to the pod in the reawakening cycle results in significant nerve damage. Oddly enough, it was not fatal, and though she was in critical care for a week and a half, she makes a miraculous full recovery; surprising even the most seasoned doctors who had expected her to remain in a vegetative state for the remainder of her days.

Her son, and many of the other children cryo blocks, are undamaged and remain in stasis. The estimated time for their revival is unknown.

MEETING:

After first contact with the Angaran, Ryder meets Quinn for the first time as she’s working on the baseline coding for the Nexus informational VI. Idle dialogue between her and the Cultural Exchange representative may occur, in which she discusses the ongoing issue in rewritten coding for Jien Garson, and that it is pass-locked.

A brief conversation between Ryder and Quinn may follow, in which she deflects any mention of Jien’s VI. When prompted, she explains her ambassadorial capacity, and makes an effort to minimize her responsibilities from a tech perspective. If Ryder pushes, however, Quinn will excuse herself, and mention that she has a meeting with Tann.

SAM will comment privately to Ryder at this point, that there are locked memory arrays regarding Quinn. Memory triggers may be met in Cryo, Science Labs, and Operations, before unlocking the location to a previously undiscovered portion of the Nexus. From there, Ryder will uncover a secret behind Quinn’s true function aboard the Nexus. This could lead to either a confrontation, or her possible....

RECRUITMENT:

Quinn is available for recruitment aboard the Tempest, and would assist in the capacity of studying Kett tech in the realm of sabotaging or retooling it to counter the threat to Heleus, as well as trying to better understand the unknown threat that is the Scourge. She would not be a regular companion, and would prefer to AVOID combative situations, but will regularly provide assistance from The Tempest. However, there may be certain situations in which she will hit groundside with Ryder and their squad for particular missions.

LOYALTY QUEST:

As Ryder learns and bonds with Quinn more and more, they begin to pick apart the stories and pieces to her life and purpose. At times standoffish and mercurial, with patience she eventually warms up enough to Ryder to ask for a favor--one involving the retrieval of a cache of equipment, taken during the mutiny aboard the Nexus.

From there, more is unraveled behind Quinn’s story. If successful, and willing to place trust in Quinn, Ryder will finally learn the secret behind her survival--as well as Quinn’s need to return a favor.

ENDING:

After humanity settles on Hyperion, the Second Wave cryo pods are thawed out. With it, a block of the children’s stasis pods are as well.  Quinn will finally get the opportunity to reunite with her son Shaun, of whom Ryder will be able to meet and speak with. Quinn’s complete trust and loyalty to the Pathfinder will be cemented at this point.

MEAndromeda Pro: Interesting and creative main story.

MEAndromeda Con: The pacing suffers because so much of the game is over-padded with b-plots and side quests.
