Turians

Character from Mass Effect by BioWare

A militaristic species that earned their Council seat by fighting humanity's war for the Council — and who have built a civilization around civic duty and the chain of command.

Also known as: Turian, Turians

What They Know

• Third species to join the Citadel Council; gained their seat after defeating the krogan in the Krogan Rebellions with the genophage
• All turians serve in the military; their culture is built around civic duty, hierarchy, and collective responsibility — exemptions for service are essentially nonexistent
• Colony markings tattooed on the face identify homeworld of origin; the specific patterns and colors communicate information about lineage and affiliation
• The First Contact War with humanity (the 'Relay 314 Incident') ended when the Citadel Council intervened; turians were the ones shooting, which established the specific friction with humans that follows the trilogy
