Description
Just a thought - why do all in-game zerg-infested human females retain some if not all of their original physical features when nearly all of their male counterparts (the only exception so far being Alexandr Stukov) are mutated beyond recognition?I do not own a copy of Starcraft II: Wings of Liberty yet.
Infested Ariel, Starcraft II, and Zerg (c) Blizzard

I guess that's what happens when you side with the protoss. Really freaky man.

Like, just kill the ones that are infected and let the rest live somewhere else

Or better yet, cook up some more of the protoss-made nanites that were used to restore a resurrected, albeit infested, Alexandr Stukov to his former (presumably living) human self, and spray the poor souls with it like you would weeds with herbicide. The Zerg hyper-evolutionary virus would be neutralized, the Protoss would be happy, and the colonists could go on with living their lives. It happened in Starcraft 64, so why not in Starcraft II?

Because no female character is allowed to be in a videogame unless she is decidedly sexable. Alas...
I totally did not feel sorry for her. I RESCUED YOUR DAMN FRIENDS HOW MANY TIMES?!

Heh, that's true (Tanya and Lara Croft come to mind). And of course, that's what you get when a cute-looking scientist gets infested by the Zerg - she ends up becoming a cute-looking infested scientist (that said, looking cute and being cute are two different things altogether.)
Funny how you get research points by killing off the scientist though.

Definitely a difference, man. Ariel Hanson was probably the weakest attempt at a love interest ever. So ungodly bland and Mary-Sue-ish. "I'm a genius who got her doctorate when I was 19 but am completely ineffective at everything! Oh, Jimmy, you're so brave! Could you go risk your ass for my people one more time, please? Teehee!"
I actually found Selendis more attractive, but that may be because Mass Effect forever perverted my tastes so that alien babes turn me on. Damn you, Tali. Damn you.

At least it wasn't a blonde.
Look closely at her non-infested self, and you'll realize that she sort of resembles Anders from Halo Wars.

Really? I thought she looked like Sarah Palin. Which increased the gag factor to about 80%. Anders? Not so much, but that's just my opinion.

LOL and yet somehow their sex is conveniently covered by some part of their body if not removed.

The cutscene this is in is one of two that can be seen depending on how you completed the mission. It's not the only one either.

I belive I read about another man, "Ethan Stewart". He is apperantly in the books.
Oh and, you might want to put a Mature content thing on this!

Of course, I've never read any of the books.
That may be debatable, since I do make out a shirt under that lab coat. The presence of blood maybe?

Duly noted. I will consider that to be an opinion however - I found it to be akin to the transformation Wikus went through in District 9, even if the intermediate stages were not shown.

He was exposed to some alien biotechnology. From that point onwards to the end of the film, he gradually transforms into one of the insectoid aliens (derogatorily called "prawns").

As a benefit, he became able to use gene-linked alien technology.
