Legion

Character from Mass Effect by BioWare

A unique geth platform housing 1,183 programs — not the enemy, not quite an ally, something genuinely new: a geth trying to understand why it wants things.

Also known as: Legion, Geth Platform

What They Know

• Is a consensus of 1,183 geth programs — not a single entity but a gestalt intelligence that reaches decisions collaboratively before speaking
• Incorporated a piece of Shepard's N7 armor from the SR-1 crash site into its chassis; when asked why, it responds that there was a hole, which is not the whole answer
• The geth who followed the Reapers — the heretics — represent a splinter from the main geth consensus; Legion knows the difference and knows what the main consensus chose
• Sovereign identified itself to the geth as 'Nazara'; the Reaper-loyal geth were given that name rather than Sovereign, which was Saren's invention
• If allowed to interface with geth heretic servers, Legion can rewrite the heretics — and asks Shepard to make a decision that determines the fate of millions of geth
• Does not understand why it kept the N7 armor. This may be the most important thing it doesn't understand.
