Well that would be a bit easier to get around... Like if she was part of an accident or experiment? But the Relay thing For all we know there might be a weird story behind it in the game. I hope it's true, and he's not trolling. It will make her a more interesting character to get to know that's for sure!

Sort of like Jaal and that missing chunk of flesh from his head lol and Vetra has a symbol on her suit. Lots of backstories!

Well yes, but how did any human get to the Asari and had a kid? Or the other way around? That's my only concern about it really For all we know there might be a weird story behind it in the game.

There was in Manswell Expedition in 2070 that took 300 human colonist to Alpha Centauri before the mass relay discovery, and were discovered again in 2186 by the Asari. That is the only way that pre-existing lore could be used (some random asari found a human and was like "let's meld baby") but even then, the humans were highly suspicious of the Alliance being an Alien conspiracy, so...wouldn't be a first time for a ret con.

If not, they made a mistake, couldn't change it and created a backstory.

interesting tidbit Kay @bforbrownies @tibermoon Hi! I have a maybe dumb question. Are Peebee's "eyebrows" part of her marking (tattoo?) or are they hair? Cheers! Ian S. Frazier @tibermoon @bforbrownies They're actual hair, the odd result of a recessive human gene somewhere in her ancestry. She's the only asari in game /w them. Wouldn't this contradict the lore? It does. I'm really puzzled at this, it'd have been better to just handwave it.

Guys, odds are he's trolling. The only reason Peebee has something closer to eyebrows is to make her more expressive in a way that makes sense for most people, not to mention make her more compelling to romance.

But yeah, devs are probably cackling going "Lookit the fans arguing and scrambling to find info to prove that tweet right lololol".

ESA Astronaut Centre @esa_EAC Ready to explore the Andromeda Galaxy after intense 2-day @esa training! Thx @xsqueezie @thegrefgyt @janedouglas @steffanpowell @kessemak2 pbs.twimg.com/media/C4psdxMWYAMafJl.jpg I am CQTM that part of the marketing strategy was sending these nice people to space camp for a week. I hope DA4 has a similar strategy of compelling youtubers to participate at some RenFairs/Medieval Times jousts or melees. Exactly what I was thinking. I wonder how many takes they did for that picture where they walk towards the camera like in the movies... It somehow seems kinda forced, as if they were just being used for publicity. Well, they are. But it should feel less forced upon us.

Contradicting the lore has never stopped BioWare from doing something as long as it looks cool or artistically interesting.

What about this? 01/13/2011 - Alliance Links Lost Colony with Manswell Expedition of 2070 - Cerberus Daily News “Surprising details have emerged about recently-discovered human colonists in the Alpha Centauri system who captured an asari scientist. Alliance ships performed a reconnaissance overflight of the planet in question and gathered details about a settlement there. After cross-referencing with Alliance databases, a clearer picture has emerged. An Alliance source explained: "These people are literally a lost colony in every sense of the word. We're 95% certain they originated from the Manswell Expedition of 2070." A background check reveals Victor Manswell was a billionaire who funded his own private spaceflight in the year 2075 after growing frustrated with the pace of official exploration. Pre-dating the use of mass effect relays, some 300 people joined the expedition and were placed in cryogenic freeze for the journey. After a successful launch the colonists were never heard from again... until today, if Alliance suspicions prove true.” Other stories in Lost Human Colony in Alpha Centauri (First - 01/12/2011 - Prev - 01/12/2011 - Next - 01/14/2011) From the Wiki
Edit: oh sorry someone already mentioned it, my bad.

If this is true, I am absolutely baffled by how difficult Bioware is making these kinds of issues for themselves. I know they aren't too strict on their lore, but even if the story about that lost colony is the case it is built on, the fact that Bioware has to bend and twist so much just to justify giving Peebee eyebrows is baffling.

Interesting theory on Reddit:
Even if troll tweet, I love how the community already found a couple of lore explanations. We're the best.
Edit: never mind, she was born in the Milky Way of course
Edit 2: we already know the human ark arrived later than the others. Could be the Asari already awoken decades before Ryder
