They do, but it requires dangerous, often fatal surgeries (yes, fatal even to krogan) to unlock that in them.

That's why all krogan biotics Shepard met are from before the genophage.  For a virtually sterilized race, such a risky procedure simply wasn't worth it anymore.

Um...

Wrex was born after the genophage. Literally the only pre-genophage krogan we ever meet was Drack.

Biotics can occur naturally among Krogan, as they can with any race exposed to element zero. The fact that the surgery existed doesn't mean it was the only way for them to exist.

Wrex is one of the last pre-genophage Battlemasters. 

But this is for another thread I think

We have met other krogan that existed before the Genophage, like Okeer and Patriarch. Drack is just the oldest krogan squadmate we've had. 

I'm pretty sure that question's been asked long ago. They intended to do something with it, but it got cut. But I will ask again.

Yea, plus I don't recall biotics being able to breathe fire. Or take part in macabre rituals in which they sacrifice blood on altar adorned by blood-drained bodies.

Not THAT ritualistic or macabre, I gather. Plus, the author is pretty adamant that the Scaled Ones were like humans, with difference being the head and body covered by scales. But Krogans are pretty noticeably different, not just in terms of head, thick hide or bring notably bigger than humans. Scaled Ones also noted to prefer stealth, silence and cover of darkness, which is pretty much anthithetical to how Krogans are usually portrayed.

In other words, I think some may take an easter egg a bit too far. The fact that Bioware has sense of humor doesn't yet mean that they want to connect both universes - so the probability of Krogans being Scaled Ones is likely as high as some Orlesians hunting down a Krogan and putting his head on display in Winter Palace.

IMO? Scaled Ones are either an ancient race or some sort of cult that arose from people who liked dragon blood too much. Dragon blood (and magic) is noted to have physical effect on people.

Thanks!

And they used this tech to make the bridges in Trespasser right?

Also. That leap of faith was an amazing game moment for me. I was like, "Ok so... Dying now?" *jumps off cliff, doesn't die, and laughs*

Maybe "joke" isn't the right word. "Trolling" seems better.

@davidgaider @patrickweekes I suggested DA:I to Anthony Rapp when he was asking the Internet what to play next. Thought you’d enjoy his reply.
