I think leviathan is tied to the mass accelerator.

I can't help but wonder if long limbs is the race represented in the ilos statues...


Aren't the Ilos statues of the Inusannon, the major race in the cycle before the Prothean cycle..?


They are now, it was retconned, they were originally statues of the Protheans.




Was it really a retcon?
It is far less serious than Haestorm and hardly anyone cares about that.


Well it says in the Art book, that they were statues of the Protheans, but now they are statues of the Inusannon, it's pretty minor, and not all that relevent.

Yep, according to Javik Ilos was home to the Inusannon

Indeed there is. Fingers crossed. If nothing else maybe future installments within the universe can touch on their survivors more, gods willing there be future installments that is.

That's a gas giant, and the planet where we find Leviathan has water and atmosphere.


There are other planets in the system however, with all the ships being destroyed in that system there is a possiblity that parts of the DLC could happen in that DLC


None of them have water, though.

Because that's a different thing entirely.
Leviathian of dis is not the Leviathian

Please tell me that is a joke.
I don't want live in this world anymore. 


As soon as the EC came out and the dialogue for Leviathan leaked it was perfectly clear that the Reaper that was nicknamed "The Leviathan of DIs" has nothing to do with the DLC entity "Leviathan" 

Though no one seemed to pay attention to that fact, especially news sites.

So what is the Leviathan of Dis, then? Another Vanguard left to aid Sovereign? I don't think so.

according to the ME3 CE art book, Sovereign's design was based from a leaf nymph insect.

Having two unrelated Reapers called Leviathan is just retarded.

Quote taken from Mass Effect Wiki The Leviathan of Dis

(Mass Effect)
The Leviathan of Dis is the name given to a gigantic corpse that disappeared from a crater on Jartar in 2163.
It is believed to be the remains of a genetically engineered starship and its age was originally placed at nearly
a billion years old.

Unfortunately, there was little time to study and uncover the true nature of this mysterious find.
Not long after its discovery by a batarian survey team, a batarian dreadnought visited the Dis system,
after which the Leviathan mysteriously disappeared. The batarians have since strenuously denied that
the Leviathan existed at all. They become even more vocal when shown documentation of the Leviathan
by salarian researchers before its disappearance.

(Mass Effect 3)
Provided he survived the batarian terrorist attack on Terra Nova in 2183, Balak will tell Commander Shepard
that the Leviathan of Dis was actually a Reaper corpse that the Batarian Hegemony had transported to
Khar'shan.  After the failure of the attack on Terra Nova, the Hegemony accelerated research on the Leviathan,
which then indoctrinated numerous batarian scientists and officials. The indoctrinated officials then sabotaged
Hegemony defenses during the Reaper invasion in 2186, allowing the Reapers to easily conquer batarian
territories and crush their scattered navy.


Note that Balak appears in ME1 DLC -  Bring Down The Sky [BDTS]

I'm aware of the ME1 plot with Leviathan, and Balak's involvement. What I was saying is the improbability of Leviathan of Dis and the Reaper from Leviathan DLC not being the same entity.

Improbable or otherwise, it's true. The DLC Leviathan is from the race of "Leviathans" that are the creators of the Reapers and the Catalyst. It's the last of it's race and really doesn't get on well with Reaper forces.

The corpse the Batarians found and nicknamed "The Leviathan of Dis" was just a normal Reaper corpse that resulted in the fall of Karshan to Reaper forces.

After all "Leviathan" just means "Really big thing" in modern usage

I don't think it was clearly stated as such.  Javik talks about the inusannon and they were on Ilos, but it comes short of saying, "you see those statues? That was what they looked like".

Look at this DLC.  Most logically assumed that this Leviathan is THEE Leviathan of Dis because we only heard the word Leviathan in the context of Dis and the mysterious dreadnought.  This doesn't seem to be the case anymore.

Naming two things the same sorta thing is just confusing.
All the mysteries intrigue me, especially from ME1.

But this Leviathan seems to be popping out thin air making Javik look like a brother from another mother, step aside Javik you're no longer the catalyst, you don't even make my jaw drop in awe anymore.

Dancing on an irony-colored dance floor. Such a powerful moment for Jack...
