On my main character, I sided with Shade and fought Kara. My first character is a half-ausar mercenary with a fire theme and a tail-cock so they fit pretty well with Shade. I also assume this will eventually lead to friendly terms and jobs with Amara's section of the Black Void and I'm looking forward to that content.
On my smuggler character, I sided with Kara, flirted with Shade, and started the 2nd Karaquest after Shade left for Uveto. I understand that both Shade and Kara are supposed on the morally ambiguous side of things and there will probably some content in the future that sheds more light on Shade's dirtier past work, but Kara's ruthlessness and recklessness makes her and her missions so much more interesting. Like in a "this bitch is gonna get me killed, but it'll probably be really exiting" sort of way. That mission was one of the best things I've seen come out of this blog.
Overall, both characters have significant appeal in very different ways and I really can't say which one I will like more by the time all of their respective contents have been put into the game, but so far, Kara's winning from her 2nd quest alone.
