Protheans vs. Protheans

Journal Entry: Sun Apr 29, 2012, 3:43 PM


I guess another thing that kind of grates on me is the fact that Protheans as I developed them in my headcanon are about the polar opposites of how they're portrayed canonically. Canon-Protheans are all "RAWR FIERCE ARROGANT PREDATORS WHO KILL OR ASSIMILATE EVERYTHING" whereas mine are inquisitive, hyper-intellectual, study-obsessed "somewhere-there's-an-ivory-tower-missing-its-wizard" types.

So, who would win in a battle if the two races fought?

....

Canon Protheans. Hands down. Mine aren't good at fighting.

:iconnuadekkarnplz: *DED*
:iconjavikplz::iconsaysplz:"Victory be mine!"
:iconamethystsadachbia::iconsaysplz:"Congratulations, you've just inflicted a SECOND genocide on the only race as advanced as you."
:iconjavikplz::iconsaysplz:"......."
:iconamethystsadachbia::iconsaysplz:"......."
:iconjavikplz::iconsaysplz:"I'm gonna go t'row meself out de airlock, mon."
:iconamethystsadachbia::iconsaysplz:"That's right."

Well BioWare's Protheans aren't all about killing and assimilating everything...They're about conquering and advancing their own Empire and making the natives of the planets they've conquered sub-servant species...Example if the Asari were advance as the Protheans then the Protheans would've conquered them and made them into a sub-servant species and the Asari would no longer be known as Asari but as Protheans as well. According to what was written and what Javik said, once the Empire took over they were no longer their original species but Protheans, just lower levels of Protheans, the best comparison I have is the Indian Caste System. BioWare's Protheans also remind me of most of Ancient Rome, in fact I'm almost positive that BioWare shaped the Protheans after them because the Romans did the exact same thing, more or less. I can go on and on about the similarities but...That would probably annoy you and after seeing how much I wrote...Yeah...I...Yeah...
