1. Darkness in 3D eye

Given their higher dimensional state, what does the Darkness, and by extension the Outsider and inhabitants of the Below/Outside, look to the perception of 3D creatures such as Humans?

Not much of anything, actually. The Darkness actually deconstructs photons and looking directly at it usually results in outright insanity.

Without spoilers, the only reason it’s manifestation at the end of ME3 didn’t literally kill every mortal in a ten light year radius was due to Lethath and Katha.

2. Bastard Children

Given Batarian sexuality, does any bastard children between Imperial and low-caste batarians exist? If so, how are they treated? Should the child show promise would he be given a chance into the ranks of the Imperial family.

Given batarian social structure that’s not even a thing. A child can only be high caste if they demonstrate all marks of high caste physiology, which are all recessive.

Half-breeds of any kind are usually low-mid or mid castes, but given that 99% of them come about from rapes (consented to by a lower-caste husband as an honor to the high caste or nonconsentual) the reality is that there is no reason for a high caste to *care* about his offspring that are not from his tracked mates.

Under no circumstances do Imperials mate with anything below the purest of high caste females, in strictly regimented interactions. All other sexual release is done through non-batarian slaves. IF such a thing were to happen, the Imperial in question would be immolated and the entire population where the mother came from blasted to space dust.

These are all Dave, Monolith, or worse questions.

7. Katha with Humanity

Would there be any difference if the planet hibernated upon is Earth and not Khaje, henceforth it would be humanity under him instead of the Hanar. How would such thing change Human civilisation. Should we go by the same route (genetic tampering and Ascended tech), would his strategy be the same and take a more ‘active’ role in galactic affairs?

I have no idea.

There seems to be this concept (and it’s not just you) that for some reason I have modeled out or given any thought to all kinds of strange perversions of my core ideas and story concepts.

The answer to almost all these sorts of questions is going to be the same:

1) If it involves canon, I literally do not give even the slightest possible fuck.

2) If it involves changes to the bedrock of my setting, then I haven’t bothered thinking about it and see no point in doing so.

3) If it involves huge alterations to the framework of the concept (what if Shepard wasn’t messed up? What if TIM was indoctrinated? What if whatever) then I almost certainly did think about it at some level and rejected it, and I’m not interested in rehashing it.

4) If the concept involves something off the wall from some other media then it is almost certain I haven’t and won’t bother thinking much about it.

For the most part, these sort of alternative questions don’t actually provide anything. I obviously haven’t though about it in any length, and any answer I give is hardly more authoritative than anyone elses.
