Hope this is ok to post here, I know it’s a different game but I’ve always loved the idea of ruling a civilization in the mass effect universe. There are distinctions that make it very obvious if Legion died - the geth VI will consistently remind Shepard that it is not Legion. This is now video. Unfortunately, the rachni were not peaceful, and the galaxy was plunged into a series of conflicts known as the Rachni Wars. Location: Milky Way / Minos Wasteland / Arrae System / Second planet Gellix was given to the krogran [sic] after the Rachni Wars, but bitterly contested in the Krogan Rebellions and reconquered by the turians. Business, Economics, and Finance. Both the Rachni Wars and teh Krogan rebellion were very much genocidal wars. 50,000 years later, the same thing happens again to the might Prothean Empire. Around 1 CE, salarian explorers activated a dormant mass effect relay that opened up a space portal to an insectoid species called the rachni . Venturing to the world, Shephard ends up working with the remnants of a lost Krogan team (and their leader, Grunt from Mass Effect 2, assuming he survived the Suicide Mission from the conclusion of that game). The Rachni were alarmingly powerful, having massive strength in numbers. The krogan prove able to survive the harsh environments of the rachni worlds and pursue the rachni into their nests, systematically eradicating queens and eggs. There's also thought that the Rachni attacking was also an attempt by Sovereign to jump start the delayed cycle, failing only because of the Krogan uplift, just showing how delayed we're talking. Which the Rachni then used to reach new planets. The rachni prove to be hostile and begin a war with the rest of the galaxy. The last species to show up through a relay at the time was the rachni and a war started with them which caused the council to resort to krogan uplifting which led to krogans demanding more sway in the council after beating the rachni, which they didn't get which caused the krogan rebellion that then led to the salarians creating and the turians deploying the. The Salarian explorers were captured and the Rachni, having previously studied element zero on their neighbouring planet Kashshaptu, conducted extensive research on the Salarians' technology and reverse-engineered it to produce faster-than-light vessels of their. The Salarians created a genetic infection that made. In gratitude for their aid during the Rachni Wars, the Council rewards the krogan a new homeworld. (Note: Woule only be in a "Rachni Wars" start date) Possible Start Dates (All dates in Earth Years)The new Rachni Fleet after the Reaper War. He could've technically been born during the wars, but had not yet gone through the rite by the time the Krogan wrapped it up. What I was saying was that the Rachni Invasion sparked the downfall of the Krogan Empire. I. Negotiation with the rachni queens was impossible; the queens could not. The Rachni Queen on Noveria talks about the “sour note” and how their songs were corrupted back during the Rachni Wars, and iirc draws parallels between what happened to her in ME3 and what happened to her ancestors, clearly telling us something was influencing and corrupting them, assuming she isn’t lying for some reason. . If you enlist the help of the Clone Rachni Queen: the clone isn't the same Rachni Queen, and ultimately will betray you. Despite being nearly wiped out in the Rachni Wars, they managed to persist in the form of cryogenically. This relay was ordered to never be reactivated, an order the Turians tried to reinforce, which resulted in conflict between the two parties. Seems most likely the Turians or Batarians would've dominated the next cycle, depending on when exactly the Batarians showed up and who would win the war you know the two civilizations would get into. " Then, when the rachni are finally eradicated and the krogan have the galaxy's most powerful military, they are still. If that's the case, that means if the Protheans hadn't sabotaged the whole system then the Turians would've beaten us to the punch by around 1400 years. Also, you don't need Renegade points to choose Destroy. Whether or not to kill the Rachni Queen is one of the best-designed choices in Mass Effect: Legendary Edition, with consequences far beyond ME1. The Krograns already had lots of experience with technology, having gotten themselves to the Nuclear age 3 times already (I'm interpreting 'Blowing themselves. The rachni used extensive research on element zero gathered from Kashshaptu to reverse-engineer. They foolishly opened a Mass Relay without any knowledge of where it led. The Rachni Wars continue. In the first game, the reapers are actively trying to recruit the thorian or at least utilize it in their efforts to continue the cycle. For 300 years, they were left to their own devices and given multiple new planets as thanks for their role in the Rachni Wars, both the harsh rachni worlds and pristine garden worlds. The Salarian's discovery of the Rachni and uplifting of the Krogan led to the Rachni Wars and Krogan Rebellions. Given their name, they likely fill the niche. Also, that's all assuming it could happen in time, I really don't think said uplifting could happen in any. After the Rachni Wars, the Krogan were given several garden worlds, repeat: garden worlds, to settle on and prosper for their work in the Rachni Wars. More likely than not, the Charon relay was paired to another dormant relay and no one wanted to go through the trouble of reactivating it. The original spectre sabotage at the start of the war targeted their ability to make more ships so we know they had the ability to make more as well. The post orbits the mass relay and is still manned and maintained, although today it largely exists as a customs checkpoint for researchers studying the rachni homeworld. Mass Effect's variety of races is comparable to those of larger universes like Star Wars or Warhammer 40K. A part of me bitterly understands why the Dalatrass. Noveria: Matriarch Benezia: liara's a no-brainer. Volus - They laugh at the Volus and treat them like Grunts. In Mass Effect 2, the queen, if alive, states she intends to fight the Reapers on the grounds that they were the ones controlling them during their war with the galaxy. In 300 CE, the rachni were declared extinct, although in caution the Citadel Council left a listening post in the rachni's home system to monitor for any survivors. The Rachni Wars come to a close in 300 CE when the Rachni are declared extinct, although they re-emerge over 2,000 years later during the events of Mass Effect on Noveria, one of the many planets receiving improved graphics in the Legendary Edition. The Krogan were eventually called to put. The Rachni captured the expedition and reverse-engineered the Salarian vessel's systems in order. They were thought to be extinct following the Rachni Wars – in which the Council races fought against the Rachni – until living members of the species were discovered by Commander Shepard on Noveria. ” Wrex growled as he kicked the Rachni corpse off the balcony.
