Boss Remix: A remix of Sovereign's theme.Saren: I don't mind waiting a few extra years, I'm a very patient man. Bond One-Liner: He gets one at the end of Mass Effect: Revelation.Įdan: You're not going to throw away three years of my groundwork just so you can have the satisfaction of shooting me.Body Horror: Looks completely wrong compared to every other turian in the series, thanks to being full of reaper tech. Ultimately subverted, however, as it's revealed on Virmire that he's just the Brainwashed and Crazy Dragon to Sovereign. Once he's declared rogue by the Council, he becomes Shepard's main target, thus making him the first game's antagonist. Big Bad: Saren's attack on Eden Prime kicks off the entire plot.Battle Aura: As the only turian biotic encountered until the third game, he gets an appropriately awesome charge-up scene whenever he enters into battle.Avenging the Villain: His older brother Desolas.By the time of his death, he had so many mechanical implants and replacements that Sovereign was able to "Assume Direct Control" of them, turning Saren's Husk corpse into the Final Boss. Artificial Limbs: Replaced his left arm with a Geth platform's arm donated by the Heretics, and later gets many Reaper implants, both exterior and internal.Arch-Enemy: The most personal adversary to Commander Shepard, by far.Of course, if you further convince him of his own strength, he ends up shooting himself to stop Sovereign. Apologetic Attacker: If you successfully convince him that the galaxy can beat the Reapers and that Sovereign is manipulating him through indoctrination, he will apologize to Shepard for his actions before the final boss fight.Anti-Magic: He can use the Damping power to prevent his enemies from using biotic and tech powers.Ambiguous Start of Darkness: He was always a brutal Knight Templar, but it was ambiguous whether he was always a monster or a Well-Intentioned Extremist, when he was indoctrinated, and how many of his actions were influenced by the indoctrination.The primary antagonist of the first game, a former Spectre agent turned rogue, who takes control of an army of geth and sets out to find an artifact known as "the Conduit."ĭid we forget to mention that his theme song is also the Game Over music?
