Mordin Solus

"I help people. Sometimes heal patients; sometimes execute dangerous enemies. Either way helps."

Professor Mordin Solus is a doctor, scientist and the first salarian to join Shepard's squad, appearing for the first time in Mass Effect 2. He is described as "very smart, fast-talking and surprisingly brutal in his thinking" and being someone for whom the ends justifies the means. His distinguishing physical characteristics are his pale complexion, the dark tattoo on his forehead, his wrinkled skin and his truncated right horn. He also bears two scars, one cross shaped scar on his left cheek and a long scar running from above his left eye to the base of his left horn.

Dossier
Shepard first meets the fast-talking salarian on Omega, where he is working on a cure for a plague affecting the station, of which Mordin identifies the presence of the vorcha as a symptom. After the vorcha deactivate environmental systems for the district in which they are located, Mordin gives Shepard a cure for the plague as well as a weapon taken off of a dead Blue Suns mercenary as a "bonus, in good faith" and tasks him with reactivating the power to the environmental systems. He also requests that he find Daniel, one of his assistants who entered vorcha territory searching for plague victims but hasn't returned.

Once aboard the Normandy Mordin runs the tech labs, overseeing research projects to improve weapons, armor and abilities using resources collected during the mission.
