Quarians - a race of humanoid nomads known for their prowess in technology and artificial intelligence. Since their home planet Rannoch was conquered, the quarians have lived aboard the Migrant Fleet, a massive collection of spacecraft traveling together as one.

Approximately three hundred years ago, the quarians created the Geth, a form of nascent artificial intelligence designed to perform laborious and monotonous tasks. However, when the Geth gradually became sentient, the quarians feared the potential consequences and attempted to destroy the race they had created.

They now roam the galaxy in a fleet of rescue ships, many of which are technologically outdated and have seen much over their lifetimes.

Their ears (or ear analogs) are significantly different from those of humans.

The most notable feature of quarian biology is their weak immune system. As a result, they must wear elaborate protective suits with breathing masks to prevent illness or infection from developing and spreading if they do become sick. These suits consist of specialized
