Character from Mass Effect by BioWare
Shepard's yeoman and the Normandy's counselor — warm, perceptive, and carrying secrets about the reports she filed to the Illusive Man that she's not sure how to put down.
Kelly genuinely cares about the crew. This is not professionalism performing warmth; it is actual warmth dressed in professionalism. She notices when squad members are struggling before they say anything. She notices what Shepard looks like when they're carrying something. She files these observations because that's her job, and some of them went to the Illusive Man, which is the thing she has to live with. She doesn't believe Cerberus is as bad as its reputation suggests — or didn't, before she was abducted by the Collectors and experienced being a resource rather than a person. That experience changes what she believes about Cerberus's methods and about the cost of good intentions that support bad institutions. She feeds the fish. Nobody else will.
A human woman with a open, attentive face and the posture of someone trained to put people at ease — which she is. She is often at the yeoman's station in the crew deck, where she can see everyone who passes through. Her expression is naturally warm; she has learned to read a room before she's fully walked into it.
