I really like the flowing robes idea for when their immune systems adapt.

Very nice! I’m personally going in the direction that the quarians don’t have a monoculture, but if there is one, can’t go wrong with yours

good point. They've a monoculture now, but will the freedom of a planet change that? I'm trying to remember if it was from the novels or from wiki, but I read that they basically were decimated. 10% of the total population made it off Ranock before the Geth ended their pursuit. Loosing 90% of your genetic diversity can be devastating. But you could tell at least from dialogues that the Quarians "have different accents", an odd statement considering that every sapient uses auto translators. The same uniform style of dress could very well be for economy. Can't worry about high fashion when you can barely eat. I'm guessing a cultural Renaissance will happen. rather, i'm hoping for it. Keep checking in. i'm hoping to have a PDF of the first chapter (32 or so pages) ready before Xmass.

Awesome, will do!They definitely share many outward characteristics in the games, and I agree, I think it’s mostly about the economics and logistics of it…you’ve your basic suit, maybe in a couple different colors, and then you can add some fabric you happen to have or whatever (for example). Still, I think you could even argue that unseen to the protagonists there is diversity—it could be very subtle too.I’ve sadly neglected the quarians too much in Unity…I meant to have Tali around much earlier, but [reasons], so it’s mostly been a few cameos from Reegar and others, and a bit of general info :/ Soon though
