Despite all of that, in one of the most impressive biotic feats in the whole series (featured above), she teams up with Sarissa to create a biotic barrier large enough and powerful enough to repel ship-to-ship missiles. She was never fully accepted by the Asari because she’s human and never welcomed by humans either because of her power. “When your biotics are honed into huntress-grade weapons,” Cora says, “people can be weird about it.” It was her unique biotic potential that ultimately got her such a high-ranking position in the Andromeda Initiative while earning her few friends. The closest Earthly equivalent would be the.

For centuries, their homeworld of Thessia was dotted with loose confederacies of great republican cities. According to the codex (the in-game lore/wiki)The asari came late to the concept of world government. While still in the Milky Way, she ran with Asari Commandos for a time - which means she’s on par with some of the most powerful Biotics in that galaxy, fighters that even Liara was afraid of. The Asari are a fictional, space-faring species and civilisation in the Mass Effect that employs some principles of libertarian socialism. She boasts being able to “warp a steel girder with mind” and the fact that she was able to rip a mech to shreds at a fairly young age. Some races have more of a natural affinity than others, but a “Biotic” - as they’re called - can actively tap into dark energy to manipulate mass effect fields, allowing for various forms of telekinesis, low-level teleportation or flying, but also the creation of small gravitational vortices, energy barriers, and all manner of matter manipulation, including ripping things apart at the molecular level.Ĭora is the resident Biotic badass in Andromeda she might even be the most powerful Biotic user in that galaxy. It’s “a rare material that, when subjected to an electrical current, releases dark energy which can be manipulated into a mass effect field, raising or lowering the mass of all objects within that field.” Sure, its most important use is in powering FTL (faster than light) drives in spaceships, but the most fun use is in biotics, which is essentially a branch of gravity-based space magic.Īll manner of aliens, humans included, develop eezo nodules throughout their nervous systems when exposed to eezo in utero, which can be further enhanced by years of training and implants to amplify the nodules.

In BioWare’s Mass Effect, life for humanity changes drastically after the discovery of Element Zero (“eezo”).
