I always laugh at people who pick Miranda for the biotic barrier. You foooools.
It was late at night, my first time through, and I just wanted to get through it; I chose Jacob, and lost Grunt. :/
I wised up on my second run through the base, and ever since have killed Jacob out of spite for unintentionally killing one of my favorite characters.

And no. No idea how to fit myself in.
Have you been chatting with the other newbies? We threw out the suggestion that you guys work on something else to build your own relationships while the rest of us finish our current mission, and then gradually borg them to the rest of Nova. You don't want to do that? Fine; just throw your character somewhere into the party and get them involved with Nova from there.
