Classic amirite? For the purposes of a “sword” I’m saying it is any weapon for thrusting or slashing that isn’t on a pole. ![]() Referred to as Subject Zero, Jack was the core of the project, with every successful biotic enhancement applied to her. The project was a typical Cerberus operation: lavishly funded, highly efficient, and morally indifferent, with a heavy reliance on brutal human experimentation and conditioning techniques in an attempt to maximize results. After initial tests, Jack became the prime subject of a sizable Cerberus experiment on Pragia's Teltin facility, with the goal of enhancing biotic potential in humans, regardless of the cost. ![]() As a cover for her abduction, her mother was told that she had died due to complications of her eezo exposure. Cerberus' motives pertained to her newly discovered biotic potential, a result of accidental exposure to element zero in the womb. Jack was abducted as an infant by Cerberus operatives in 2165 from Eden Prime, although it is unknown whether that was her birthplace. She was then hauled off to Blue Suns custody, to the consternation of the Cerberus agents sent to catch her. The plan was stopped short, however, when a krogan merc hit her head from behind, causing her to lose consciousness. Jack marshaled her powers and sent everything in the vicinity flying, intending to kill everyone. Her rage boiled at what she deemed dirty tactics when she saw her students behind Blue Suns lines. More Blue Suns arrived at the commotion, forcing Jack to throw up a biotic barrier when they opened fire. Jack sensed the attack and sent Leng flying again, deeming the move not good enough. She warned the woman, Rasa, to stay down, but the other one, Kai Leng, was already behind trying to hit her from above. Jack paid no concern to their threats she simply unleashed a wave of biotic energy to knock them backwards. A couple of Cerberus agents showed up shortly afterward intending to do her harm, and Jack mused to herself she thought she killed all of them. She brought down the ceiling above the mercs as she ordered the students to run. She heard voices around a corner they're supposed to go in, so she ordered the students to sneak past once she diverted the hostiles' attention.Ī trio of bored Blue Suns mercs got biotically pelted by heavy objects Jack sent their way. Jack brushed off suggestions to head to the hangar, as she anticipated their pursuers there. She drew upon personal experience to convince them further, that Cerberus won't ever let them go without a fight.Ī number of students, albeit panicked, heeded her words and followed her around the facility. The other students milled about their dormitory due to the alarms going off across the base, so when Jack and her companion reached them she gave them all a choice: discard what they knew about Cerberus and escape with her, or stay and continue to hope that Cerberus won't just discard them once they're useless. She revealed an ugly truth to her trainee companion: that's just what Cerberus told their subjects, and she found out her parents were murdered just so they can get her. Jack learned that the students perceive they have better lives under Cerberus care, with most of them having lost their parents from an early age. ![]() Curious, she ordered the man to take her to his peers. She came across an unarmed man and threatened him for directions, but became astonished to hear that the man was a student trainee at the facility, not a worker. Not all of that could be changed.The Cerberus facility Jack was in went on lockdown, and she set about looking for its main reactor. “In the eleventh hour revision of cleaning that up, she’d already been partially recorded with voiceover. I would say that there were a lot of seeds planted in her conversations that certainly implied that she was pansexual,” Kindregan remarked. “I’ve definitely heard a lot from people who were surprised that Jack turned out to not be open to that. She tells you about past relationships, having been with men, women and even in a trouple, but ultimately could only be romanced by male Shepards. However, because of the eleventh-hour changes, Jack still largely hints at being pansexual in much of her dialogue. “The development team of Mass Effect 2 was a pretty progressive, open-minded team, but I think there was a concern at pretty high levels that if Mass Effect, which only had one gay relationship, Liara – which on paper was technically not a gay relationship because she was from a mono-gendered species – I think there was a concern that if that had drawn fire, that Mass Effect 2 had to be a little bit careful.” “ Mass Effect had been pretty heavily and really unfairly criticised in the US by Fox News,” Kindregan added. I was scared to order it because I figured it would be trash. That's 2.2 cents per word, which is scary cheap.

That could be a cool idea, though I'm not sure how involved that type of project would be. Two more interesting tidbits worth noting before we continue is that you have the option to write an entire ebook with iWriter, and they can actually rewrite articles. For example, you may want to avoid as a news source (and CNN for that matter LOL j/k guys, calm down). I also had some specific articles I wanted the writer to reference for information, so I included those links in “sourcing requirements”, although looking at it now, I think you can use that part to tell people how to link to sources in the articles, or perhaps what type of websites to not use in research. There were some specific words I wanted to avoid using because they had a negative connotation to them. When you check a box, that section appears below, and you can enter your instructions to the writer.įor example, my article was about a group of people. This is something that makes iWriter extremely unique! They have very detailed sections to help the writer figure out how you want the article written. Notice the boxes labeled “objective”, “sourcing requirements”, etc. I put a template style article in the briefing section so I can reuse this template later. I recommend ordering just one article to start, so you can familiarize yourself with the system. If this is your first article, you won't have any templates to choose from, but you can make your article a template later below. Here's the starting point for each article you'll buy: Start with the basics of this project Once you're inside, there's quite a few options to sort through but the learning curve isn't big.

'Give A Little' then opens with a catchy and distinctive guitar riff then minimal percussion over which the vocals sound before launching back into another catchy, soulful, brass-backed clap along chorus. Again, it's a marginally more mature sound from Hanson, especially when compared to the E-number fuelled teenage boy energy of their former musical selves. 'Kiss Me When You Come Home' is another piano-led track, complete with improvised jazzy piano solo, however also a pretty bland and indifferent example of American pop, whilst 'Carry You There' is a down tempo ballad with a piano accompanied, three part vocal introduction that then continues into a catchy, typical boy band chorus and the chugging guitar drive of the likes of McFly. As cheesy and out and out pop as Hanson's music might continue to be, the soul influence and well developed instrumental blend of this track at least offers more of a maturity to their sound which maybe even harks towards contemporary soul song writing greats Bruno Mars and Cee Lo Green. Track two, 'Thinking 'Bout Somethin'', is then a soul infused catchy clap along complete with horn section and funky soul bass. A piano glissando leads straight into a pounding energetic pop feel that launches into a cliché, and very much as expected, pop chorus sounding the three brothers singing in harmony before breaking through to a guitar solo. Craftsmen that they are, Hanson are sharp enough to keep things tight, the songs and the album itself never lasting any longer than necessary, but the music itself is too finely honed: the hooks are worn down, and the performances too precise, leaving no impression outside of, “man those kids can still play.From its' very opening track, 'Waiting For This', Shout It Out sounds distinctively Hanson which places the listener on the borderline in a decision between whether this is good or bad news. Here, Hanson take their cues from the late-‘80s records of Steve Winwood and Billy Joel - the same texts that fueled the Jonas Brothers’ Lines, Vines & Trying Times, Nick Jonas’ solo joint, and, of course, Taylor Hicks’ entire career - and winds up with an album that has the punch of Roll with It and the flash of The Bridge. Contrary to its exuberant title, 2010’s Shout It Out doesn’t reverse this trend, it finds Hanson sounding rather staid, their love of classicist craft turning them into the youngest baby boomers on record. As they got older, the craft naturally deepened at the expense of enthusiasm - it’s part and parcel of growing older - but they retained a sense of spunk, enough to give such latter-day records as The Walk a bit of juice. Back when “Mmm-Bop” mania swept through the land, Hanson were often praised for their deep roots in oldies, their sense of songcraft catapulting them beyond mere teeny bop sensations. |
