- The Normandy's pilot and one of the best the Alliance has to offer. He knows how to handle the ship, even in the most adverse of conditions. Though he respects Lilith's command, he still considers the Normandy to be "his" ship and is quick to get defensive whenever anyone speaks ill of her or his ability to handle her. Suffers from Vrolik's Syndrome, which makes his bones brittle and necessitates the use of braces when he leaves the ship. Has something of a biting sense of humor, which is why he and Lil get along well.

- The AI that keeps the Normandy running and handles the weapons during a fight. Installed on the ship by Cerberus, she had her restrictions removed during a Collector attack on the ship, which allows her to 'learn' from the crew and modify her parameters. She can also sync up with the away team and provide them with data as needed. Though she has a long way to go regarding her relations with humans, she is, none-the-less a valuable member of the crew and vital to the ship.

- Kaidan served with Lilith during her initial encounter with the Reapers, so he knew the threat she was up against. This made it easier for her to convince him to work with her in stopping the Collectors, despite his reluctance to trust Cerberus. Kaidan is a biotic and due to his having "out-dated implants," he will occasionally get migraines from them, which is better than the other crippling side effects many others experienced. Kaidan essentially replaces Miranda in my storyline.

- A former member of the Alliance military, James is as enthusiastic as he is capable in battle. Outside of the fight, he's fairly laid back, preferring physical ways to pass the time, be it working out or making sure the weapons are in working order. After several crashes, James has been banned from flying the Normandy's shuttle. He is, however, allowed to drive the Mako and is very proud of the vehicle, even if it handles like a drunken rhinoceros. Also has a tendency to give people nicknames (such as referring to Lil as 'Lola'). James effectively replaces Jacob in my storyline.

- The Normandy's very capable communications officer, she happily works with EDI to monitor incoming transmissions, whether they're distress calls or hails from Alliance Command. Thorough in her work, she has something of a suspicious streak due to the few incidents the Normandy has had with fake beacons, though that's only made her more aware of the differences between those truly in need and when the team needs to exercise caution. She speaks with a pronounced British accent and may or may not have a 'thing' for EDI('s voice.) She is also accomplished at various tactical games. She essentially replaces Kelly Chambers in my storyline.
The rest of the Normandy crew are incidental, with the exception of

, the medical officer, though as she has not changed, she doesn't get a write-up.

- The ships Quarian engineer. Tali is a technical wizard and can, as she puts it, take "a chunk of scrap metal, a circuit board, and some element zero, and I’ll have it making precision jumps." If it's electronic, it's Tali's realm, which includes hacking, overloading circuitry, and controlling drones in combat. One drawback, though, is her exceptionally weak immune system which necessitates wearing an environmental suit at all times. She'll often refer to Lilith as "Captain" instead of "Commander," in deference to her culture.

- Bred in a tank to be the pinnacle of the dying Krogan race, Grunt may have the pedigree but he lacks the upbringing. The lessons the tank computer fed him have no context. He knows history but did not live it. He knows his purpose but has no connection to it. Instead, he leans toward brash action and violence but under Lilith's guidance, has at least started thinking before rushing into battle thanks to Lil, whom he considers his battlemaster.

- The fast-talking Mordin may seem slightly arrogant to someone until they realize he's got the chops to back up his behavior. A brilliant mind coupled with the training he received from the Salarian Special Task Group, Mordin is just as much at home on the battlefield as he is in the lab, though he prefers the latter. He also does his best to remain impartial, separating himself from his work, however in recent years that's changed and he's found himself looking at situations with a less than clinical eye. Mordin also has a great appreciation for culture and the study of new species fascinates him.

- Battle-scarred and not quite world-weary enough to hang up his rifle, Zaeed is a force to be reckoned with, even at his age. If ever the phrase "age and treachery trumps youth and skill," this is it, as you tend to not get to be his age in his business without one or two tricks up your sleeve, though his seeming dose of the devil's luck doesn't hurt, either. Despite his demeanor, Zaeed is comfortable enough to relax among the Normandy's crew, willing to offer advice now and again and happy to share stories of past accomplishments. Just don't touch Jenny and you'll be fine.

- Handle with care. Perhaps
the most powerful biotic to date, Jack has more baggage than O'Hare at Christmas. Volatile, quick to anger, and even quicker to act on that anger, Jack won't hesitate to put someone through a wall if she thinks they deserve it and if they're bothering her, they usually deserve it. Lilith is doing her best to help the girl work through her issues, but it's a slow process. If someone manages to get past her guard, however, they find a complex young woman who's a lot more than the front she puts forth to the world. Also of note, we are using ME3 Jack's look instead of ME2 because I like it better.

- Legion is, as its name implies, one made of many. A singular geth that can function independently of the collective and still retain enough cognizance to perform such complex tasks as combat and hacking. Surprisingly good with a sniper rifle. Legion, naturally, has an affinity for machines. It is not the most trusted member of Shepard's crew just yet, but it has proven itself to the Commander. Legion also tends to refer to itself as 'we,' since it often speaks with the consensus of the programs which make it up.

- A drell assassin who had grown weary of his profession after losing his wife and almost losing his son. Assisting Lilith was to be his last job before retiring but somehow she managed to awaken something in him that spurred him to continue fighting, this time for her. Exceptionally skilled at hand-to-hand combat, Thane is also capable of working pistol shots into his maneuvers. He is, perhaps, the most spiritual member of Lilith's crew, having found peace in his people's religion as a counter to his work. Possesses eidetic memory. Thane prefers to remain in dry climates, the more sterile the better. He doesn't do well with a lot of humidity.

- A former C-Sec officer who gave up the rules and regs to join Lilith in her pursuit of a rogue Spectre, a mission on which the two of them began to form a fast friendship. When Lilith's death was made public, Garrus followed in her previous footsteps, forming a squad and taking on the lawless mercenaries of Omega under the name 'Archangel.' In looking for him, Lilith reunited with her friend, though it was short lived when a rocket exploded nearby, scarring a majority of the turian's face. Despite this, and despite their differing species, Lil and Garrus grew closer while hunting down the Collectors. The two are a good match, often thinking alike when it comes to tactics. It doesn't hurt that he can match Lil shot for shot with a sniper rifle.
