Tiran Kandros Profile
Tiran Kandros is a turian who serves as the head of the combat forces, the head of the Nexus militia and the commanding officer for multiplayer strike missions. He is the cousin of Nyreen Kandros from Mass Effect 3’s Omega DLC.
Tiran Kandros is also the protagonist of upcoming comic book, Mass Effect: Discovery.
He resides at the Nexus at the Militia HQ where his office fields militia work, nexus security and looking for the turian ark. In regards to turian welfare, he claims that the turians are doing “so-so.” In addition, he also mentions that they are not good at sitting around in a crisis. “Service before self” gets drilled to them at boot camp. It is one of the reasons why many of the turians, much like Tiran are in the militia. They like to earn their citizenship in the form of serving through the militia, whatever galaxy they are in. However, he also states that its hard to focus on their duty of being part of the militia wth the turian ark missing.
He also mentioned his encounter with the kett when he was escorting a prospecting team on some moon. After he and the team were captured, the kett penned them like cattle for experiments. Tiran managed to get loose and snatched a gun and freed the team. By the time the kett were slain and they managed to get back to warn the Nexus, everyone was looking at Tiran like he was in charge. At this time, the militia grew. He also mentioned that the kett don’t take kindly to anyone studying them. The kett do not talk to turians and Tiran mentions that when turians and the kett cross paths, there will be a fight or the kett take prisoners. Tiran wants the kett “a long, long way” from the Nexus.
Tiran also mentioned that what brought him to Andromeda was that he was tired of being “the good one.” His family is old military, which meant that Tiran’s family were known for being in the military and that there were expectations.
