Orinia

Orinia is the turian ambassador to the Citadel in 2186.

When Kahlee Sanders gives Paul Grayson's evidence on Cerberus to David Anderson, Anderson knew that he couldn't trust anyone in the Alliance so he turned to Orinia. While she points out that Cerberus was the reason that the turians opposed humanity's addition to the council, Anderson fires back with what happened with Saren Arterius. Nevertheless she listened to what Anderson and Sanders had to say. After the conversation, and at Anderson's request, Orinia let Kahlee stay in the turian embassy for her protection.

For the operation against Cerberus, since Orinia had a limited number of troops under her command, they had to choose their targets carefully. She asked one of her former subordinates, who also happened to be the head of C-Sec, Executor Pallin, for assistance, he formed a turian-exclusive task force. With Anderson's assistance, they managed to organize the strike against Cerberus. When Kahlee wanted to come along on the mission, Orinia reminded her that the commander's had spent thousands of hours preparing and honing their teams, and that she would only get in the way.

After the strikes have been completed, Orinia informed Kahlee of their success, and how Udina was angry beyond belief. After some discussion, where Kahlee reminded her that while the turians had experience in the field, they didn't think like humans, and Anderson chiming in that they only had a limited time to find one of the missing turian teams. After Anderson spoke up, Orinia nodded and she allowed Kahlee and Anderson to visit the base where Grayson was being held. After which she reminded the two humans that turians were punctual and the shuttle would leave in one hour whether they were there or not. Along with Anderson and Sanders, she send a half-dozen scientists with them to assist in dissecting the information aboard the Cerberus station.
