Administrator Anoleis

From Mass Effect Wiki

Administrator Anoleis (full name Rannadril Ghan Swa Fulsoom Karaten Narr Eadi Bel Anoleis) is the salarian in charge of Noveria's Port Hanshan. He represents the executive board; his position affords him oversight of the local corporations' rents and day-to-day business. Commander Shepard needs to speak to him in order to obtain a garage pass.

Shepard is advised to speak to Anoleis by his secretary, Gianna Parasini. Unfortunately for Shephard, Anoleis is an officious bureaucrat, who refuses to cooperate, despite Shepard's Spectre status. Anoleis is more interested in trying to protect investor interests than assisting Shepard's investigation, and stonewalls any questions about Matriarch Benezia.

After Shepard gives up on trying to convince him, Parasini tells the commander to speak to a turian, Lorik Qui'in, who is relaxing in the hotel bar. According to Qui'in, Anoleis has recently gained direct control of lab rents, receiving bribes and earning the ire of the local companies. Anoleis is attempting to conceal his actions by accusing Qui'in of corruption, and has paid certain members of Hanshan's Elanus Risk Control security forces under-the-table to ransack Qui'in's offices at Synthetic Insights, where the turian is storing the evidence of Anoleis' corruption on his personal computer.

Spoiler warning: plot and / or ending details follow.

Shepard can pursue several approaches to Anoleis, in order to acquire a garage pass:

• Help Anoleis. Shepard can tell Anoleis that Lorik Qui'in asked for help. Anoleis asks the commander to go to the Synthetic Insights office to pass on files that will help his 'investigation' into Qui'in, in exchange for a garage pass.

• Report Opold. If Shepard has agreed to help the hanar Opold as part of the Noveria: Smuggling assignment, the commander can report Opold's activities to Anoleis. In exchange for the package, Anoleis will give Shepard a garage pass. Note that one can still help Anoleis or Qui'in after doing this.

• Help Qui'in. Shepard can assist Qui'in - and later Parasini, who is actually an undercover Internal Affairs investigator - in getting Anoleis arrested by retrieving Qui'in's files. Parasini will then reveal her undercover status, and ask Shepard to convince Qui'in to testify. There are two possible ways the plot can develop from this point, depending on the player's choice:

• Renegade route. Shepard can convince Qui'in, but then tip off Anoleis that Parasini is going to arrest him. Parasini will go into his office and Shepard will hear the sound of gunfire. Entering the office, Shepard will find both Anoleis and Parasini dead, and can loot a garage pass from one of the bodies, earning 25 Renegade points.

• Paragon route. If Shepard convinces Qui'in, and tells Parasini first, in order to get a pass from her, the commander is treated to the sight of Anoleis being dragged off, shouting for Shepard to arrest Parasini. Later, on the Citadel, Shepard hears a news report of Anoleis' sentencing for corruption. This earns a reward of 25 Paragon points.
