#oc: scott ryder

Scott's really enjoying Kadara

[athirstygoblin]

My Shepard and Ryder are by nationality (and ethnicity in terms of my Ryder) South African.

Jane Shepard is Earthborn and lived in South Africa. Her first language is Afrikaans but quickly picked up English when she joined the Alliance Military, hence why her accent is American.

Sera (player character) and Scott's race are Coloured (not a slur in my country), an officially recognized racial and cultural identity in South Africa that consists of people with mixed white and African heritage (both are also fluent in Afrikaans)

(Ignore Sara's hair texture Andromeda doesn't have decent afro textured hairstyles)

Just thought it would be nice for the Mass Effect Games to include a bit of my home country, even if we are a mess

My Mass Effect Characters Masterpost

So I figured I should probably have a master post for my Mass Effect characters; my Shepard, Ryder, and OCS with basic information about them. * = will add more about this character

Original Trilogy

Commander Athena Shepard

Earthborn, War Hero

Infiltrator

80% paragon, 20% renegade

Childhood best friends with Lillith; they're practically sisters in every aspect except biological

Was an orphan living on the streets until Lillith's aunt took her in

Romances Garrus

Survives the Reaper war

Lillith Caine

Earthborn, Sole Survivor

Infiltrator

60% paragon, 40% renegade

Her parents died when she was an infant and her maternal aunt took her in and raised her alongside her family

Childhood best friends with Athena; they're practically sisters

Romances Thane

She does not like Jacob

Her entire biological family dies to the Reapers on Earth. She finds out a day after Thane's death

Does not survive the Reaper war; goes to the Citadel in Athena's place and dies choosing the synthesis ending

*Cielle Winters

Spacer

Adept

95% paragon, 5% renegade

Romances Kaidan

During the events of ME2, she and Kaidan were on a break (caused by her joining Chakwas on the Normandy) so she went on a date with Jacob. It didn't go well (he flirted with the waitress. A lot), which caused Lillith to greatly dislike the man.

Is Doctor Chakwas' intern; is in training to become a warship doctor - something her parents disapprove of

Survives the Reaper war

Romances Jaal

Left the Milky Way engaged, and left the Nexus no longer engaged. Her experience with her ex-fiance left her very hurt and weary of new people, so she built a wall around herself to protect herself. She also had no intentions of pursuing any romantic relationships for the foreseeable future. That is until Jaal joined the Tempest.

I made an impulsive decision and started playing Mass Effect: Andromeda and my Ryder,

Seraphina was 100% a papa's girl despite how strict he was with them, but following he's death, she stresses for her twin like no other and checks on Scott several times throughout the day when she isn't on missions.

She was the quiet twin until the role of Pathfinder was pushed into her hands and often feels like she's alone without Scott to be there.

SCOTT 'RICHARD' RYDER in MASS EFFECT: ANDROMEDA (2017)

"This is more than hope―it's proof we weren't crazy. We can fly to a whole new galaxy and still make sense of things."

[themaybug]

my Ryder twins ft. what they might wear in a modern AU! it was fun to design the outfits and i hadn't drawn any of them before except for Erica 🥰

bigger pics under the cut

[lavampira]

I finished crafting the N7 grade iv armor just in time for soni to unlock the memory of the ryder family dinner on the nexus :)

My beautiful Scott Ryder right before getting a brain hemorrhage

[mtreebeardiles]

Scott in BG3 v Scott in ME:A hahah

I got as close as I could but BG3 didn't really have the right option for his nose. Hair is closer though! I tried.

[urdnotcadash]

It’s been a minute but im currently obsessed with Mass Effect so heres some ss of my Ryder... and Jaal.

[daekiyu]

lenny, the dog that works under dulla

[spookyvalentine]

Yes hello please consider this a free for all to talk about Tilly what are they like 🥺

OMGGGGG I am so honored by this ask!!

I gotta be real honest though, this is my first playthrough n I know maybe three things about me:a and have only just left eos, so tilly is pretty unknown to me still.

I’m not sure how old Ryder is supposed to be, but I’m thinkin putting tilly round twenny years old?

I’m not acquainted w the classes (profiles?) quite yet, but they’ll probably have some biotic abilities

Are they soft hearted, or calculating?? I dunno yet!! So far I think it feels right that they are sociable and adventurous, maybe a little of an adrenaline junkie

I don’t think I’ve met all the companions yet, and haven’t talked much w them, but I’m very charmed by peebee and I’m thinking she’ll be their LI. Helps that the pictures of their first meeting looks like a romcom meetcute

I’m sorry this isn’t much of an answer!!! As I play this game more I will definitely be thinking more of who tilly ryder is 😊
