Your thoughts on any and all of this are appreciated.

Ramblings

 * For the longest time, I wanted my human multiplayer character to wear the particular dark blue that the Alliance Marines had in ME3. I couldn't figure it out, logically blue color with black highlight, but it didn't look quite right. Finally figured out a few days ago black base color with blue highlight looks different. Add white stripes and you're good to go.
 * So Mass Effect 2. Squadmates include a returning Garrus Vakarian, frustrated with rules getting in the way of justice, leading a dead team of vigilantes to massacre criminals indiscriminately; and Mordin Solus, a dangerous former-STG scientist who has made renegade decisions, and in a rare move for non-player characters in games, actually defends his actions. So Mass Effect 3? James Vega: Ey, Loco! (Facepalm)
 * During goodbyes.
 * Tali: Whatever happens, it's been an honor serving with you . . . Captain.
 * ASniper: Captain? Are you picking that up from Ashl—Oh, right. Quarian Fleet. Captain. Got it.

N7

 * Final Fantasy XIII-2 has N7 armor skins. Someone could use them as young officers.
 * Need a high-ranking Alliance officer to begin the organization. Colonel or above, probably Navy.
 * Canon expansion? No matching candidates.
 * Existing fanon character?
 * All-new character. Renegade-ish type
 * Bring in a Spectre?
 * Divisions
 * Command Cell. Stationed aboard Nimitz. Assigns missions, strategizes. Consists of retired or resigned flag officers of militaries.
 * Alliance Admirals, Turian Generals
 * Intel Division. Eyes and ears of the Special Ops.
 * Salarian STG, Infiltrators
 * Field Operations Division. Coordinates squads in the field. Combat control and advising.
 * Asari Commandos, Human Combat Controllers
 * Logistics Division. Supplies, acquires, and repairs. Supply depots located throughout the galaxy.
 * Black Market Merchants, Volus Merchants, Salarian Logistical Experts
 * While aiming to fight the Reapers, Cerberus becomes a serious threat trying to take them down.
 * With so much autonomy, some worry N7 may become like Cerberus. Others compare them to Spectres: not trained, but chosen.
 * While the command and logistics staff might have clear ranks, the squads operate slightly like the Migrant Fleet. Squad leader/ship captains are all equal.
 * Most operatives keep the ranks they held in the galaxy's militaries, but isn't a large part of N7.
