I'm not too bothered if the Quarians ever reveal their faces. If they manage to find a suitable new planet to live on or get their homeworld back then I'd like to see the faces then, but if it's not in that kind of situation or in a Quarian portrait of some sort, it would likely seem tacked on to please the Quarian fans.

What I don't understand is why talimancers keep pulling up that fan made picture of tali if they still want the mystery.

I don't understand why you think that every person in a given demographic is exactly the same.

Your answer is no.

[biology]
Quarians do not share a single gene with us.  Reproduction is completely impossible.  Quarians are less closely related to us than Dogs, Lizards, Fish, Flat Worms, Jelly Fish, Protzoa and Bacteria.  Considering that it would be impossible toreproduce with a Chimp, which shares 96% of our DNA, that should just show you that reproducing with a Quarian is impossible, as they share 0.00% of our DNA.

And a discussion of genetic incompatibility ignores the fact that every single protein in a Quarian's body has the opposite chirality of a Humans, meaning that they are completely incompatable and they interact in ways that they are not designed to.  Hence, human food potentially being deadly poison to Quarians.  Hence, human gametes are potentially deadly poision to Quarians.

[gamefiction]
The Asari side step this because there is no physical mixing of genetic material.  Through Mass Effect space magic, they are able to psychically scramble their babies' DNA using another creatures DNA.  So things like, different numbers of chromosomes, or gamete compatibility, or protein chirality don't come into play, because of space magic.[/gamefiction]

[biology]
This implies that Asari could actually probably mate with any living organism.  Including Bacteria.

Please don't reveal their faces. I have a felling that either

1. BW is going to get it totally wrong

2. Purple space elves as mentioned

3. Have them look like something so completely different and unfitting that it damages the character

[Taikis]

I trust Bioware to reveal their faces if they know they have done it right.

[Spectreshadow]

^^ Kinda funny that the creators of Mass Effect can get something wrong in Mass Effect...

I hope this does become Tali's face. DO IT Bioware.

We have no idea if more game fiction might come into play as it is science fiction after all.  If they find a way around the biology or not.  Remember Tali is a possible romance that many have gone through in ME2.  They had their risky scene, however, given what you have stated about their biology something might happen as one of the listed consquences that could happen in ME3.  Consquences are not normally a good thing afterall.

I like Tali so I'm hoping for the best :happy:

Replace the hair with a short-haircut-like feather,two fangs and you got the Quarian race (male/female).

Yep, purple space elves, exactly what I fear they will end up looking like. SIGH

So you have any better ideas? go ahead,post some pictures.

Space elves? LOL In most stories the elves simply "went away somewhere never to be seen again", vanished, enslaved, or killed to extinction, etc. The fact that a race of elves actually made into space would be interesting.

Yeah,like the Vulcan in Star Trek.

Lol no.

(Would be interesting to see Bioware reveal faces and see the agro on forums afterwards.)

Well I did not ask Quarian's ro be able to reproduce with humans. I asked them just to be able to breed (language). To try breed. To make sex something else than rubbing spacesuit.

Lol sup wrong in that? Fine she is. Very fine.

Why have fangs? :| What's the biological reason for fangs?

Ask your canines. As in "teeth". Of course, the reference to such in this thread was actually just a typo.

Male


Female


xD Sorry I just imagine them could be something like that.

But of course Tali is more like this:



I don't even care if the face would be different xD

[klossen4]

if quarians are night elves or drow in the future that would be bad the asari have that role except the elves ears.

[james1976]

The glowing eyes might be due to some implant that helps them seem better through their visors, or merely a reflection through the visor. I remember the Asari council member's eyes having a slight glow or shine to them in the center.

I never really thought of them as space elves but okay

@ the Quardian biology guy - Remember Humans and Vulcans did have children together too.  I doubt they shared similar DNA and they did have different colored blood too.   Hince adding more to the fiction as you called it.

[DigitalMonster]

This is a quarian face:

[InvincibleHero]

Come to think of it they might lack an outer skin layer given their vulnerability to pathogens. You would think a breather/whole face mask and regular clothing and cleaning off/disinfection/ irradiation would work otherwise. They might be truly repulsive.

The glowing eyes might also be just a cosmetic addition to their masks.  It could be a simple LED process that followes the quarians eyes to simulate where said quarian is looking.
