About
This mod revamps Thane's story in Mass Effect 3. He'll be able to survive the story and rejoin Shepard on the Normandy. Below is a complete list of features. This mod need to be installed before you meet Thane at Huerta Memorial. You will experience bug otherwise.

Huerta Overhaul:  Huerta's dialogue has been edited. Shepard's in a romance with Thane no longer talk to him like their relationship was a one night stand. It is now much more poignant. More dialogue paths have been added to the  conversation. Thane is no longer fatalistic about his disease. In this mod, his Kepral's is actually on the mend.

Coup: Thane survives the event of the coup and is Bailey's backup at the end of the mission. This mod allows Thane, Kirrahe, and the Salarian Councilor to live. Kai Leng kills no one during the coup.

Rejoining the Normandy: Thane can be recruited back on the Normandy post coup, provided he is loyal. He becomes a non-combat crew member who coordinates Drell forces from the Normandy. He also becomes a war asset. Certain crew member will recognize that he is aboard. Thane will also react to each mission that Shepard completes after his brought back. Thane can be invited to Shepard's cabin  if EGM is installed.

Citadel DLC: Thane will be present during the hangout and party portions of Citadel DLC. He will have different hangouts depending on romance status. For the clone story line, he will be present during the last mission if he is romanced. Otherwise there will be an email from him explaining his absence from that part of the story.

Romance Overhaul: Romancing Thane will now lock in his romance, like all other Mass Effect romances. Certain characters will comment on Shepard being in a romance with him. Romancing Thane will also confer the paramour achievement. Thane also get's a full romance scene before Priority: Cerberus Headquarters. He also get's a picture frame in the Normandy cabin, like Tali and Kelly. 

Misc: Kolyat will be present in the embassy after the coup (he will be still working on completing his community service). Shepard can have a small conversation with him.  

Thane get's a codex entry

Thane gets optional outfits via the settings menu. He will change outfits as the game progresses.
