Nakmor Kesh is the Superintendent of the Nexus and member of Clan Nakmor. She was part of the core team of station engineers who built the Nexus and describes her current role on the station as "fixer-in-chief." Kesh is in charge of keeping the Nexus functional, which includes maintaining systems, integrating any returning arks, and overseeing construction efforts. She is trusting of Pathfinder Ryder because the Hyperion helps keep the lights on.

Background

Kesh was born on Tuchanka, back in the Milky Way. She claims she was considered frail as a child, but an attentive upbringing by her grandfather, Nakmor Drack, allowed her to flourish. Unlike many of her kind, a younger Kesh made ample time to read, sparking her early interest in engineering and civil construction.

Records from the Nexus uprising show Kesh played a key role in keeping the station operational during the crisis. Her strong management and knowledge of the station makes her an irreplaceable member of the Nexus leadership. Furthermore, Kesh's presence ensures that the krogan still have a powerful voice on the Nexus despite their departure from the station. Kesh and Director Jarun Tann are often at odds, with Kesh vexing Tann by addressing him as "Number Eight". Kesh explains the nickname is her humbling reminder to Tann that he was eighth in line to take over the Andromeda Initiative.


Mass Effect: Andromeda

Kesh played an instrumental role in preventing krogan aggression from destroying the Nexus. In the aftermath of a reneged deal between Assistant Deputy Director William Spender and Nakmor Morda, Kesh was able to convince Morda to lead the Krogan into exile. Morda successfully established the New Tuchanka colony on Elaaden, while Kesh remained aboard the Nexus to ensure that her people retained a voice in the fledgling project.

If Pathfinder Ryder chooses to keep the Ancient AI during the mission Uncovering the Past, Kesh will send them a message, informing them she has received it. Despite the property damage and acts of hostility of the synthetic, she promises to keep it between the two of them.


Is this a joke?

From: Kesh
Uh...what did you send me? At first I thought it was a joke, but no, you sent me a hostile AI.

Ryder?!

Got her set up all cozy and tethered in SAM node—but not before she spaced a couple crates of supplies headed for Podromos and displaced the gravity in Pathfinder HQ. I didn't tell Tann of the others.

For now this'll be our little secret.

After rescuing Vorn from outlaws, Vorn can reveal that he is courting Kesh. If spoken to at his stall, Vorn can ask Ryder to give Kesh a flower. When Kesh receives the flower, Kesh criticizes the gift for its impracticality to the krogans' survival. Even so, Kesh shows a desire to keep and care for the the flower plant, implicating she is secretly touched by the sentimental gesture.

After the mission The Journey To Meridian, Drack will reveal to Ryder that Kesh gives birth to a healthy clutch of krogan infants. He also states that they should "Keep this to themselves". Vorn can reveal he is the father of the infants.
