 You see when Mass Effect 3 is finished im hoping for a very settling epilouge, you know it gets down to the details of what happens after (that is if shepard or the universe survies  ) and what I'm really hoping is that shepard can settle down a little, relax, maybe start a family. Now I'm in a relationship with Tali and I'm happy with it. What I was wondering is that can all species cross for children? or just the Asari? I would really like for a Quarian spawn of shepard maybe, Idk but I was wondering if there has been something said on if more than just Asari can populate with other species or not. Just wondering what your thoughts are for a cross species child or if you know for sure a answer to my question

[ThatDancingTurian]

Just the asari. Cross-species hybrids are impossible.

Also, there's a thread asking this same exact question on the first page already.

[King Zeel]

You are right to ask if your Tali romance is going anywhere.

the short answer:

no

The long answer:

hell no.

They shouldn't have had some of those romances in the first place (basically Liara's the only one that isn't fraternization), but given the choices that they have already made, I would actually really like it if Bioware had the stones to either

A) Have the stones to accept that Tali/Garrus make more sense as a hook-up,
or
Actually flesh out a cross species relationship. I.e., more like Perdido Street Station, less like fanfiction.

Is there an option C? You know, that basically eradicates all mention of such-mythical-hook-up?

Cross-species romance isn't inherently bad. It's just not handled particularly well (even in the case of Liara) in Mass Effect. Perdido Street station is a much better example of doin it rite.

Sadly, Tali & Shep's DNA would prove toxic to each other, so no natural children. Adopting a Quarian orphaned by the Reaper war or dual-"fathering" an Asari child? Would be interesting (I'm more for the first, though).

Really, Guise, I've been following him around the forums pointing out how he registered yesterday and began trolling that same day. Just look at his other posts

Trust me, I've noticed. I've also been ignoring you. See, the thing is. Here's how posting works. I register.. heres the tricky part, follow the sentence, cause its gets hard to comprehend after this part...then I post.

Tah-dah. my registration date is just that. I'm not sure how else I could post without a registration date. Or was there some process I missed.


Adoption? Asari-insemination? Shepard should just conclude that relationship as a hookup. It's already silly, no need to scheme up ways to make a family with them.

[PauseforEffect]

No way to have cross-species children.
At least not without violating Citadel laws about genetic tampering.
Hmmm.....what's the irony level if Cerberus figures out how to create cross-species children?

While I like the idea of adopting as an alternative, I personally would not support Shepard and Tali/Garrus raising an asari from birth. It'd be bad enough to lose one of your parents by the time you reach adulthood, but both of them?

Now, Shepard 'fathering' a child with a non-romanced Liara (basically being like a donor) and then Shepard and his/her LI being sort of like an 'aunt' and 'uncle' to it would be adorable.

[Nashiktal]

No cross species babies. Technically Asari babies aren't cross species either.

Also I doubt they will put too much detail in the epilogue about your LI, would put too much of the roleplaying out of the players hands.

[Anezay]

Why would anyone want smelly, noisy, expensive babies? Enjoy your mutual sterility, you crazy kids. If you really must have a spawn running around, there's adoption and artificial insemination. Weirdo.

Amen.

ASHLEY ROMANCE FOREVER!

[Golden Owl]

Are the reproduction capabilities that important? I can't see my Shep settling down to a life of changing diapers...I have in life, I don't want him to....He is waiting in hope for Kasumi...... and I insist they use birth control diligently if their fertile..<_<.

Ah, so King Z is an Ashley fanboi. That would explain a lot.

Yep. Nothing short of pure Ashley will be enough. Put me on the record, I will get my Ashley Romance or some people will die.

[Neverwinter_Knight77]

So all of the ME2 romances are sterile? lol

It looks like a whole lot of Sheps are gonna have broken hearts (some of mine included) in the end.

[Nashiktal]

Eh, I want shep to reproduce as the ultimate symbol of why he fought the reapers in the first place. With all that shep has done, his genes definitely deserve to be passed on.

However that doesn't mean he can't be in a romantic relationship with an alien.

[fenix8081]

Well, husks and reapers are a combo of organic and inorganic material. So maybe it's possible that genetics has developed far enough to achieve this.

Only problem is that both husks and reapers are hideous looking monsters, not to mention Saren with implants (maybe even TIM with his eyes...would explain him working with the reapers and all the genetic experiment)...so you're cross-breed child could become a hideous monster.

Then again, the Reapers did all sorts of genetic stuff with the Protheans, so maybe Shep finds the magic information on creating cross-breed hybrids for all the Talimancers (like myself) and other alien lovers.

Would they be sterile though, like the Liger, which is bred for its magical powers?

[ThatDancingTurian]

The husks are also largely mechanical and their sentience/intelligence is questionable. They're more akin to Frankenstein's monster than a true viable hybrid.

Tell that to the Reapers making Krogan/Turian hybrids.

[Shad0wOGRE]

Hybridization with alien species is highly improbable (we're talking miraculous levels of convergent evolution, and as close as the asari are they aren't close enough) with alien species, and impossible with turians and quarians. All Asari are 100% asari genetically.

So even if you got an unfertilized asari egg and tried mixing it with human sperm you'd likely only ever get fetuses that self-abort within weeks (that's the problem when the number of chromosomes don't match) or you'd get some horribly deformed abomination that barely resembles a human or asari.

So it's blue babies with Liara, human babies with the human LIs, or adoption/surrogates/genetic engineering on the same level as the Lazurus project with anyone else.

They're doing that with SCIENCE!!!, not actual sexual reproduction.

So, yes, I suppose Shepard and Tali could hire a mad scientist to make a quarian/human mutant hybrid.
