User blog comment:CrimsonShogun/Omega DLC (and Nyreen!)/@comment-50.8.235.70-20121113051042/@comment-4269923-20121114025943

I'm pretty sure one of the developers commented that Nyreen would only be around for the DLC, not a permanent squadmate. Which is a bummer, since I really am looking forward to a new character on the Normandy.
