  A missed opportunity to end this one with &quot;And may the Goddess aid you, always&quot; given Liara&apos;s love of the phrase &quot;By the Goddess&quot;

  Space Elves/Vampires. Like them or not, it is hard to deny it is a fun concept to explore. Interesting choice in how the developers did so much to connect reproduction to power for the Asari. It really paints their oh so wise Matriarchs to be quite foolish in choosing to try and keep the lid on the Reapers for so long. I wonder what the Asari would have looked like if the knowledge of the Reapers was common knowledge for their 30k years long history.

  I think the way asari breed swapping genetic memory and history may be a direct cause of prothean involvement in their early evolution. It&apos;s very similar to how their technology works. They may have even been dual gendered but developing into a all female race after being exposed to their genetic memory technology

  Thank you for compiling all of the Asari lore, it was nice to be refreshed into this fascinating universe. On the ending note, I also believe that Destroy has to be the canonical ending. This was one of the reasons I kind of didn&apos;t want them to continue the main franchise. Control leads to an army of Shepard influenced Reapers to &quot;peacefully&quot; control the universe. I just can&apos;t imagine there being a feasible threat to the galaxy if these Reapers are still controlling the Universe and vaporizing anything they perceive as a threat. The Synthesis ending is also far too impactful for the series to continue for VERY OBVIOUS reasons. Only the Destroy ending has a Milky Way Galaxy that is free from the control of Reapers and therefore allows the franchise to continue in a feasible manner. Personally I chose Destroy on my first ending, despite also brokering peace between the Geth and the Quarians. As guilty as a I felt doing so, it felt like the only feasible option. Control was frequently depicted as Indoctrination, everybody who said they could control the Reapers was already indoctrinated, and even though we see Shepherd Reaper stop liquefying everybody, the Reapers are still in control of the universe allowing the peace to exist for only as long as it is logical to do so. Synthesis may seem like a noble goal, but forcibly rewriting everyone&apos;s DNA against their will, practically destroys the people they were in exchange for new super race. So that&apos;s not really a good option either, plus that&apos;s all the Reapers ever wanted, and fuck the Reapers. There is no way I&apos;m going to side with the Grim Reapers that liquify babies into robot juice. So I&apos;m sorry Geth, and I&apos;m sorry Edi, but I&apos;m going with Destroy. Its the only way to actually stop the Reapers.

  Is it possible to do a lore breakdown on Biotics as well.
