34. Mordin Solus (Mass Effect series)
Nominated by TheArkOfTurus
Have killed many, Shepard. Many methods. Gunfire, knives, drugs, tech attacks, once with farming equipment. But not with medicine.


Mordin Solus is the very model of a scientist salarian. A brilliant geneticist, he helped implement the genophage against the krogan to sharply reduce their fertility and eventually lead to their dying off. Though he puts on a veneer of intellectual consideration above emotional concerns, Mordin regrets his role in the genophage. In the third Mass Effect game, he personally takes steps toward implementing a cure for the krogan.

Mordin is very quirky. Hes very focused on cold logic, but he has a wry sense of humor. Hes known to bust out some Gilbert and Sullivan from time to time. He also doles out relationship advice to other crew members aboard the Normandy. Hes a nice spin on the Spock archetype, with a lot of charm to boot. His heroic sacrifice is also very moving.
