Asari Diplomacy (2024)

FAQs

What is the religion of the asari? ›

Religion. The dominant asari religious belief in the current era is siari (literally "all is one"), a pantheistic faith based on the belief that the universe is a consciousness, of which individual beings are aspects, which return to the greater whole upon death.

Asari can live for over a thousand years and go through three stages of life, which is analogous to the Triple Goddess archetype in Neopagan religious and spiritual traditions. Asari culture is depicted as being egalitarian, xenophilic, pro-diversification, pro-multiculturalism and anti-eugenics.

A mono-gender race, the asari are distinctly feminine in appearance and possess maternal instincts. Their unique physiology, expressed in a millennium-long lifespan and the ability to reproduce with a partner of any gender or species, gives them a conservative yet convivial attitude toward other races.

The Asari are the famous blue race of aliens which inhabit Thesia in the Mass Effect series. The species is famous for looking extremely human-like, even having a similar eye type to humans.

The saying “embrace eternity”, frequently quoted by asari prior to melding, originates from siari philosophy. This saying is taken from an extended quote - “Reach out to grasp the threads that bind us, one to another. Every action sends ripples across the galaxy. Every idea must touch another mind to live.

High Thessian (also known as simply "Thessian", "asari standard", etc.) is the closest the Asari Republics come to a single common language.

So, if Asari are basically like mammals, the probable reason for breasts is simply that other Asari like them for the same reason half of all humans like them. So the trait was selected for as they evolved.

Even among the asari, many individual asari are referred to as “she” and “her“ but some asari prefer male pronouns, while others gravitate toward gender-neutral where language allows. Asari also bear feminine titles like “huntress” and “matriarch” and asari offspring are referred to as “daughters“.

Ardat-Yakshi, which means Demon of the Night Winds in Old Asari, are born with a rare genetic condition that severely enhances their nervous system. The Ardat-Yakshi themselves are not physically affected by the condition; however, it is deadly to those they mate with.

11 How Do Turians Reproduce? Like humans, Turians are viviparous in that they don't lay eggs.

How old is Samara in human years? ›

Samara's Age

The official site states (just as this article does) that she is 600 years old. But in one of the dialogues she says she is "around 1000".

Turian characters have appeared in most Mass Effect games and media with several playing major storyline roles, such as Garrus Vakarian, Saren Arterius, Nyreen Kandros, Vetra Nyx and Tiran Kandros. In addition, the turians are playable characters in the multiplayer modes for Mass Effect 3 and Mass Effect: Andromeda.

I don't think there's an absolute definite answer because they're listed as comparable, but the oldest krogan we know (Drack in Andromeda) is older than the oldest asari we know of, so it's possible krogan can live longer due to their many redundant organs.

Liara is an asari, a species whose members can live for over a millennia and a species which is perceived to have a feminine appearance by non-asari standards, and which is sometimes described as "all female".

In ME2, Aethyta mentions that her father was a Krogan, so if Asari mated by normal means, she would be half-Krogan, which would make Liara a quarter Krogan.

Turians do not believe spirits can affect the world, but spirits can inspire the living. Turians enjoy absolute freedom of religion and can practice whatever appeals to them so long as it does not impede anyone's ability to perform their duties. There are many practitioners of the asari siarist philosophy.

Religion. The volus appear to have a polytheistic religion. Some of their gods have planets named after them: Cherk Sab, a deity of luck, and Zada Ban, a god of punishment.

Adherents of Atharī theology believe the zahir (literal) meaning of the Quran and the ḥadīth are the sole authorities in matters of belief (ʿaqīdah) and law (fiqh); and that the use of rational disputation is forbidden, even if in verifying the truth.

Religion. Salarians are not notably religious, but as free-willed sentients there are exceptions. One of the less favored salarian religions (which the Council deems a "cult") worships a goddess, and claims that a certain pattern of overlapping craters in the southern hemisphere of Trelyn resembles her.
