On the effects of mass.
I'm doing this exercise again, but this time I'm giving you some advance notice: these are my Mass Effect characters. Refrain from asking about actual Mass Effect events (especially as I haven't played ME2 through yet and do not want to be hit with spoilers), but feel free to tailor your questions to your knowledge of the ME universe in general (culture, tech, politics, etc.)

2) Cole
3) Brit
4) Zaku

Running this question has reminded me how much the lawful-chaotic spectrum can depend on just what law you've gotten to deal with, and what your place is in it.
Dara: Lawful Good, plain and simple.
Cole: Neutral Good. If the Alliance were the only authority he'd probably be Lawful; if the Council were the only authority he might well have gone Chaotic. Having both has made him cynical but not TOO cynical about the law.
Brit: Neutral Evil, more likely to lean Lawful than Chaotic but only out of pragmatism.
Zaku: He'd say he's Chaotic Good but when you get down to it he's Chaotic Neutral; doing good just happens to be a good way to feed his ego.
What actor/actress would you cast to play each character?
Dara: Dichen Lachman (dyed to brunette).
Cole: Rocky Carroll is a little old for the role but I think he can manage it.
Brit: I haven't actually created her in game just yet, so I don't have a strong mental picture of her appearance. But probably a very typecast Katee Sackhoff.
Zaku: James Kyson Lee.
Not sure if you're familiar with Xanth or not, but if so -- what question would each of them ask the Good Magician Humfrey, and what year's service would he demand in return?
I haven't read any Xanth, so I don't know much about what sort of things Humfrey asks for payment. I'll re-interpret the question as "if they could have any one question answered, no matter how difficult, what would it be?"
Dara: Who would lead humanity with the most wisdom and compassion?
Cole: Who, if anyone, do I trust or will trust that I shouldn't?
Brit: Where can I go that I can survive comfortably but where I'll be left the hell alone for the rest of my days?
Zaku: Who most needs defeating next to keep the galaxy safe?
