Mass Effect 3: vote on default Femshep

What will pre-built Shepard look like?

BioWare wants fan input on what the default pre-set appearance of the female Shepard should be.

Six images have been uploaded to Facebook and fans are asked to 'like' the one they, well, like.

There's one clear leader: the blonde Shepard number 5, who has 16,924 likes at the time of writing.

It's closer after that: Shepard 3 has 7924 likes, Shepard 4 6546 and Shepard 1 5181.

Shepard 2 has 3308 likes and Shepard 6, bless her, has 1954 likes.

The new default Shepard will coexist with and compliment the pre-built Femshep of Mass Effect 2, who'll return in Mass Effect 3. You can opt to customise your own look as well.
