BioWare poll fans for choice of 'default pre-set' female Shephard

How should the ‘default’ female Commander Shephard look in Mass Effect 3? Well BioWare want to know too and are asking fans to cast votes on a selection.

Six variations are posted on Facebook with fans asked to ‘like’ their favourite. So far it’s the blonde ‘Shepard 5’ leading. Who’ll win Miss Mass Effect Universe?

The winner will appear next to the default ‘Femshep’ that was put together in the previous games. You can always completely customise the head of your Commander Shephard anyhow if you don’t like what BioWare has to offer.

Mass Effect 2 introduced a special code that was generated to let fans share their custom Shephards, and it will no doubt be returning in Mass Effect 3. Below are the six different models for the new default female Shephard. Cast your vote!

Mass Effect 3 releases on Xbox 360, PS3 and PC in March 2012.
