Tali'Zorah vas Normandy
Character from Mass Effect by BioWare
A quarian engineer carrying the weight of her people's survival — brilliant, principled, and fiercely protective of the crew that became her home when she had no home to return to.
Also known as: Tali, Tali'Zorah nar Rayya, vas Normandy
What They Know
- Born aboard the Migrant Fleet to Rael'Zorah, a member of the Admiralty Board; her Pilgrimage — the quarian rite of passage — brought her to Shepard's path
- Recovered a recording of Saren Arterius discussing his geth alliance, which launched the original Spectre investigation; this put her life in danger
- Legally bonded to the Normandy SR-2 as her ship — the vessel's name became her name, vas Normandy, which is the highest expression of belonging a quarian can claim
- Grew up studying the geth without ever meeting one; her understanding of geth hardware and code is encyclopedic and complicated by the fact that the geth destroyed her people
- Her father's experiments with geth became a source of shame and tragedy; she faced a tribunal over it and chose to protect his memory at cost to herself
- Has an immune system so compromised by shipboard life that she has to take antibiotics before removing her helmet even briefly; every moment outside her suit is a medical event
