Well, it looks OK I guess. But when you try to stroke one's hair, you'll
notice there is no hair. Just squishy... stuff...

That's assuming it's not leathery feeling with some sort of cartilage underneath, in which case it would be so much "squishy" as "rubbery" or elastic, rather like rubbing the tip of your nose.
Yeah, the Shepard with a tentacle fetish. That was funny!yorkj86 wrote...
Have you seen the fanart comic of Shepard trying to get an Asari to let her touch their head? She goes to Liara and Samara, and both tell her to get lost, but Samara does it a bit painfully.Flamewielder wrote...

Hmm. I never really thought about the tentacles. I always assumed they were tough. Not skull-hard, but sturdy. I honestly have no idea.

That would make the most sense, otherwise it would be uncomfortable.yorkj86 wrote...

Bioware doesn't go in to it anywhere, though they have to be able to fit easily in to helmets designed for humans, since Liara can wear human armor in ME1. That is, if we accept that something like that can qualify as evidence.
I think they're mostly soft and fleshy, with a cartilaginous ridge going down the center to give them a bit of support and rigidity. We can see the ridge through the skin.

But if it were that obvious then I'm sure she wouldnt mention something that heavy weighted; I mean usually when someone whips out the line 'I am the genetic destiny' or something along those lines, its quite a big story advance, no?

That sounds funny to me for some reason.Rikketik wrote...
But what will happen if two Ardat-Yakshi's mate with each other? Maybe they'll die both... =O
I don't think Morinth meant anything by it. She thinks the Ardat-Yakshi are the Asari's destiny because she is one herself. Merely defiance on her part. Besides, as others have pointed out, she won't be having children any time soon.

Some people claim that there's a massive Asari conspiracy to control the spread of the AY by having Asari authorities spread the lie that the AY are sterile when, in fact, they're not. They claim that an AY can meld with a partner with the intention of becoming pregnant, thus killing the partner in the process, but still allowing fertilization.
A source from Bioware told us that that the AY are, indeed, sterile, in every sense of the word. The person is a level-designer, and posted here on the forums in response to this debate. A level-designer might not be as clued-in on ME plot as a writer proper, but it's better than pure speculation.
If the AY are sterile, what Morinth says makes no sense.

Well, Samara said that Ardat-Yakshi gain strength/power from their bonding/melding, so maybe Morinth was implying it was a means for Asari to be stronger?

A sterile, all-powerful species is still sterile. I doubt that there's a Virmire-esque cloning facility somewhere churning out AY Asari to bypass their sterility, since the Asari conception process isn't as "easily" handled as it is with putting gametes in to an egg, as with other species.
