Kirrahe

“So be ready, my friends and comrades: be ready tonight, and in every day coming, to hold the line.”
Kirrahe is a talented salarian with membership in both the STG and the Spectres. His talent for espionage is exceptional. According to Mordin Solus while Kirrahe did have a tendency toward military bravado and was "a bit of a cloaca", he never the less loved his speeches.

Then-Captian Kirrahe was sent along with the 3rd Infiltration Regiment to the planet Virmire, where he discovered Saren Arterius' base of operations. When they realized the gravity of their situation, he authorized the sending of a message on their mission-critical frequency back to the Citadel Council, calling for a fleet worth of reinforcements. Unfortunately, the message was unclear and as a result the Council sent Commander Shepard and the Normandy to investigate.
Kirrahe was then forced to improvise after the Normandy landed in the middle of the hot-zone. The salarians turned their ship's drive-core into an improvised nuclear bomb and placing it in the middle of the base. To get it there, Shepard took a covert team into the base to disable the dangerous AA guns while Kirrahe and his salarians provided a distraction. While Ashley Williams did not escape the blast, Kirrahe and his men made it with "acceptable casualties". On board the Normandy, Kirrahe and his men promised to honor Ashley's sacrifice and remember to come to Shepard's aid if she ever needed it.
=== Pre-Mass Effect 3 ===
Kirrahe was one of the salarians dispatched to Tuchanka, and was the one who found the fertile krogan females who survived Maelon's barbaric experiments.
=== Mass Effect 3 ===
Kirrahe, now a Major, met Commander Shepard again when she came to Sur'Kesh to secure the krogan females and fought to repel the Cerberus assault there. Afterwards, Kirrahe recommitted to assist Shepard, and Earth as a result, regardless of what his government chose. True to his word, the STG flies in the Battle of London at the end of the Reaper War.
