Yeah, I hope not. Between Liara the pureblood and Samara's pureblood kids, I'd really like to have an Asari squadmate who isn't going to re-hash that topic for us. Like, I get it. Pureblood = bad. I'd much prefer PeeBee to be a mix. Partly so we could see that other species' influence on her. And... hanar? Implications, unpleasant. Maybe her papa is a human. Doing their part to improve asari/human relations. I salute this brave pilgrim. Though I'd love to meet a human/Asari kid at some point, First Contact was 30 years prior, and PeeBee is over a hundred. But maybe we'll meet one at some point? Not sure how Asari child development works, as to when they physically appear as adult women though. Could be that a human's offspring would mature a bit faster though, since despite what Asari claim, certain characteristics do seem to get inherited from the father species.

Well, we know that 60 years old seems to be along the lines of late teens since that one Asari on Illium talks about how "I'm 60 years old and finally out of my parent's house.". And Liara was 106 in ME1 which is considered barely over a child, so probably is the equivalent of early twenties based on that and her appearance.

Yeah, that was me. I created a twitter account just for that Also, if someone has any questions, I could try to ask them to him. Got a question you can see if he'll answer, "Which squadmate does PeeBee get along with most (other than Ryder)?"

Peebee is Liara's half-hanar sister, confirmed. I can see this as PeeBee's father, Aethyta would be all for it. View AttachmentThis one approves of your theory.

I think Peebee gets her inquisitiveness from her Asari parent and her bull-headedness from a Krogan parent. Or... it's all her own, and it's true what "they say" in that it's a total crapshoot. The "father" doesn't matter towards the outcome of the child.

Speaking of PeeBee's outfit, what is this? I think it could be her jetpack? I noticed something similar on Cora's outfit as well. I like the outfit btw. It doesn't offer much protection on the battlefield but we could justify it by saying that she has much more agility that way. At the CES 2017 we saw that she has 1369 of shields so she's likely a sentinel, she is kind of protected already. Of course, it would be nice if we had another option for those who want to give her a proper armor. (Which I think she has). But I think the devs did a great job with this outfit. Look at how detailed are the leather of her outfit. The quality of the images doesn't make them justice but I think they're alot more realistic than anything they've done before. The straps are cool too. She looks badass Also, off-topic, but I want to say it anyway, did you notice that PeeBee's coloured "freckles" on her crest are in other parts of her body aswell? You can see them in some images .. (Sorry for the bad quality) I wonder if it's something she has all over her body, it would be kind of sexy ... I particularly like the three sort of "freckles" she has on her belly. PS: @massbass I asked that question on twitter but no response yet.

Thanks for asking Neil is probably doing one of three things: not wanting to answer, thinking of a way to answer while evading the question, wants to wait closer to release to answer. My bet's on answering while not answering After the helmet conversation I kinda regret not asking you to ask Neil if PeeBee is able to wear helmets instead. And I think, not caring about "realism" (I use this word very rarely when it comes to video games as in ME3 Kaidan/Ash can die in 1 pistol shot as if they weren't wearing armor.) in combat, PeeBee's outfit really fits her character. I don't expect her to be wearing Fallout 3 power armor or anything Though she could probably use biotics to protect her from projectiles like shepard in the ME1 dlc (bring down the sky I think?) and incinterate to warm her up in cold weather. Though I'm not sure about toxic hazards, can biotics protect a person from toxic clouds?

But this is generally what I'm more concerned with. It'd be weird to see Ryder and Cora walking around in full protective gear on a planet with a dangerous, toxic environment... and then there's Pelessaria B. with her stylishly exposed skin and a flimsy breather mask (or whatever it's called). ??? I'd have the same issue if the other squadmates aren't dressed appropriately for hostile conditions either, but it's particularly noticeable with Peebee.

Though I'm not sure about toxic hazards, can biotics protect a person from toxic clouds? Yeah, probably Neil won't give a straight answer anyway because "spoilers" But I'd be fine if he could give us some clue. About the helmet, I think it's best to ask to one of the devs btw. Neil is the writer so I don't know if he knows about this kind of things. As for the armor, now that I think about it, we don't know much about the Asari. We have no idea about what kind of conditions they can resist. I mean, since they can live for a millenium, they must have a better immune system than ours that's for sure but there must be more than that, I guess? I was trying to find some info about it but there's nothing. (Atleast nothing I could find) It could be that they don't even feel cold or hot as humans do. Their skin is very much different than ours. Not sure if biotics can protect from a toxic clouds but I hope there is some kind of explanation in game. Especially since the devs said that our Ryder might need a different kind of armor depending on the planet. Part of me is conviced that she has an armor that she will be forced to wear in this specific planets. Or maybe she really can protect herself with her biotics. idk.

It would be perfectly fine to have Krogan wander around hostile enviroments without much protection, but Asari? Even if they deliver an in-game explantion to this, it still looks like the blue-space-chicks trope. Next thing they will have them wear high heels all the time or something along these lines.

Asari seem to have a much higher exposure to Element Zero on their home world compared to the other races so who knows how that influenced their ability to survive in hostile conditions

One reason the Salarians "uplifted" the Krogan race is because of their resilient physiology. They needed help to defeat the Rachni, and Krogan could survive the harsh conditions on the rachni worlds to fight them directly.

I mean, I think the "blue space babes" thing is probably a factor, but it's more of a "six of one, half a dozen the other situation" than consciously one way or the other. It is a little telling that the characters that most get the treatment are the sexy ladies.

It could be that biotic abilities and kinetic barriers are capable of conveying some protection against the elements and vacuum of space, as we know the latter is capable of holding in the atmosphere of ships and space-stations. By retaining a "bubble" of normal atmosphere and pressure around themselves, all the person would only need is a breathing mask.
This might explain our usual suspects (Samara, Jack, Miranda and Kasumi) in ME2 only wearing masks when exposed to vacuum. Miranda, Samara and Jack are relying on their biotics for protection, while Kasumi is relying on her shields.
That's the best handwave I can think of, but it's a bit daft when a hardsuit would be far better in every single way.

The lore can expand and Mass Effect has alot of unexplained things that I'd like to see explained in this new game. We have alot of information about the Krogan and how their species is highly resistant to environment hazard but for the Asari we simply don't have enough information yet. Since both the Asari and Krogan have a long life span, it would make sense for the Asari to be highly resistant too. But that's just my opinion.

Yea it's hard to imagine a species that can naturally live for 1000 years to not be able to. With all the interspecies interaction and different planets an Asari goes to throughout their long lifespan I'd say there's a good chance that their immune system must be great for the sake of adapting. Could definitely use some more information on the asari as a species. Edit: Maybe with Dr. lexi on board the Tempest we'll get to learn more about Asari physiology from some comments that she makes throughout the game.

I think no matter how resilient a species is in their natural state, they'd be exponentially more so wearing proper protection. If I were Asari or Krogan, I'd still want to know I've done everything I could to try and mitigate unknown threats. It takes so little... just wear a damn suit and a helmet.
