Oh my god I can't draw starships.
Headcanon
Parvani Lumirunda Dis Sumiradda, known to some as "the Turquoise Princess", was Vahana's eldest sister. She was married to the prince of Sumiradda, one of the Nobles families who reigned an Empyrean in the Flarunium Realm.
She was known to be a compassionate queen and was very kind to her servants and people.
She was about the same age as Teishen, the two ladies saw each other as sisters more than cousins, and they both had taken care of Vahana when she was young.
Her position on the Fleet is the Rear Admiral of Aetheria Eclipse.
And no, Vahana looks super badass but she is still a mortal, so she does bleed.

Vahana and Parvani are OCs by me.

I am seriously loving this series! The plot is cool, and I love how Javik plays in. (I ship Vahana/Javik. Cougar!Vahana ftw)
I've noticed the most of the main characters are girls though.
Not that I mind, I just noticed.

Glad you like it!
Some did comment this comic as controversial and uncanon to ME lore, I don't care, this is my headcanon comic and I'm doing it just for fun.
As to the girls... well... maybe it's because all of the OC creators are girls!!
We'll have a turn for the boys to rock the stage, don't worry.

How is it controversial? I don't see any mistakes in the lore, and maybe I'm not looking hard enough, and no one knows what the protheans were really like. I like this version.
*cough* maybe I could shove my prothean OC at you *cough*
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I shouldn't talk shit behind people's back, it's too low for my taste.
And I agree with you that virtually nobody knows what the protheans and their culture were really like, that's why we fans get to elaborate.
And honestly, hater's gonna hate... if people don't like fan fictions or headcanon stories or Protheans in general, then it'd be wise to skip this comic to begin with. I don't understand why would people start looking into thing that they're not fond of and make themselves SO angry.
Hurry shove me your prothean OC, I need more crews to this fleet, we have so many ships and so many Reapers to fight with!

I love the new prothean VI, looks like a norse goddess.
Very interesting character development, and love the prothean costumes!
the spaceships look amazing, and love the fleet design!

I kinda like her appearance, I imagine her voice being like a more womanly/mature version of Avina.
Nyx is the name of the Goddess of Night in Greek mythology.
Thought it's fitting. And the way it's spelled gives it an exotic feel.
Parvani is the name of a blessed peacock served as the sanctified steed of a Hindu god, Skanda. She symbolized splendor and prosperity.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I can sure see that, and her dead design looks amazing!
oooooooh, and really exotic sounding!
and that really suits the character she was named after.

Wow, you really cought the style of prothean architecture. You really did. That's.. wow. It's quite a talent, you know. Besides these great faces and colors and lights, this talent by itself is amazing. ... Yeah, sry for bad english.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Your English isn't bad at all, don't worry.
I guess I was just improvising, you know, I draw really horrible interiors.... and I can't draw tight mechanical/architecture drawings.... so I had to do the comic in color, because it helps creating the mood.

Somebody's throwing themselves out of the airlock in the next strip, I think.

So... as far as i can see here, i think Vahana just like Shepard in her cycle. Correct? And the difference is she failed to united every species and race to work together in this cycle. So if she died then, umm.. lets just say she re-born again to be The Shepard we know now.
Well this is just my opinion, no need to spread it around.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Totally open to all crazy ideas.
I was talking with my sister about why Shepard was able to tap into the prothean beacon, and she had similar opinions as yours. I kinda doubt with the fact that the concept of reincarnation may sound a bit too much of a convenient reason, but I can live with it, because I couldn't find any better explanations.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Well to be honest i doubt it too about the concept of reincarnation or something like that. I just think "if" her soul can't rest in peaceful and still take a burden for failed to save peoples she care. And knowing The Reaper back to destroy all cycle in the galaxy every 50.000 year once. Maybe she request to "The Mighty One" to send her back and complete her mission by give the Reaper full payback.......
Alright, i think i need to stop this and back to my paperworks now, just slide too many crazy idea here. But yes i do believe He is exist for our goodness.

Ah.
I'm not an atheist and respects all religions (as long as they don't go nuts), but as a story-teller, I'd prefer to leave religious elements at where they are, unless it's a fiction which clearly stated its influence/inspiration based on religious materials. Because introducing gods would be expanding the universe setting into something rather uncontrollable... unless your main character has god-like attributes or is in fact a deity to begin with. I don't know, the kind of setting would be kinda too perfect for me and I'd wont be able to elaborate stuff on immortal perfect characters... after all we wouldn't have to if he/she is perfect already.
But I like your concept, it has a Hinduism/Buddhist feel. In both religions, there are enlightened souls who'd chose to reincarnate themselves over and over in order to save souls from the cycle of damnation, it's quite admirable to have such virtue.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Oh, don't worry about that. I didn't question what your believe about religion or something its all your own choice, what i said at the last is just my opinion view. Beside this story is about the ancient cycles, very old and forgotten which they believes about harmony of the universe.
Yeah its really hurts to know the very glorious race in the galaxy was vanished by canned creatures and when one knows the truth no one even believed it if their times comes to an end if they not united strength together. Until The Reapers knocking their front doors and they become nuts like a Krogan lose their quad.
Sometimes i just thinking if there are any decision option for Shepard which said "I tell you what but you didn't believe me, now eat that assholes!! I am tired to save your sorry ass." +1000000 RENEGADE Points.

Ignorance is not a bliss, this is my impression on ME3.
And yeah I agree with the renegade part. Even though I only did a 100% paragon playthrough, there are just times I'd wished to have the same gloating options to choose with... them councils were just spending too much time messing around with politics.
IMO it's all about uniting the races together.
Oh and just a quick catch-up with the previous posts. Vahana was more like a protector than a fighter. She led the fleet and tried to make it into a safe zone for refugees... of course we all knew that some indoctrinated individuals did manage to slip in and...... you know the rest. As Parvani have mentioned, their peace was based on a consolidated effort in keeping secrets. Even their Mainframe VI keeps secrets, it was a rough time...
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Wait, if i am not wrong their VI can detect indoctrinated people, right? Just like VI Vendetta in Thessia he can sense Indoctrinate Aura when Kai Leng appear to challenge Shepard. Are the VI in Penumbra Apex have the same system to detect it too?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I was thinking REALLY hard about the VI's ability on detecting indoctrinated individuals. it took me actually more than 18 hours just to think how could Nyx have overlooked indoctrinated undercover agents.
I question their criteria in evaluating indoctrination in particular... it seems like they don't only judge it based on a cyborg/non-cyborg criteria, there's more to it, but I honestly couldn't figure it out.
So my idea would be that some of these indoctrinated people were with their family and friends who didn't think they were, they'd even probably blend in and bonded with a crowd of refugees before being rescued by the fleet. So when Nyx wanted to exclude these individuals for homeland (homefleet?) security, the refugees repelled... and this put Vahana and many admirals into a dilemma. As the Exemplar of Protection, Vahana was torn deeply because of it, sad fact is that you just couldn't save everybody in a war.... no body could've never done that.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Or the indoctrinate agent in cover persuaded some of Apex mechanic which not indoctrinate before they get in on the ship to lower The VI security system so they can't detect it precisely.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Oh wow that can be a possible reason as well, I actually buy it, thank you!
Undercover agents are some serious pain in the ass. At this point of the comic, the Prothean Reaper War has been going on for only about 100 years (my headcanon tells me the war would last for about 600 years at least), right now it's more about identity fraud and false orders, which triggers the colonies into self-destruction.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah, i just remember about Javik dossier lines when Shepard comes to Eden Prime to revives him from torpor condition.
In one Prothean vids image (which only Shepard can see them) it's explained if the Protheans has a secret plans to save their races. All the last stand Protheans will sleep in stasis mode until the Reapers comeback to their dark galaxy but in the end their undercover agent found it and leaks it to the Reapers and mess with their last plans. It result just Javik the only survivor in stasis mode after Victory the VI blow up the secret place with a Nitro Bomb and buried it for 50.000 years.
Yes, the proud of Protheans hierarchy is their main strength as well their main weakness and with just one combat doctrine it backfires them like hell when the Reapers found a weakness in there.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I'd even say that Victory may be sabotaged in some way to put the logic of "victory at ALL costs" to the extreme. I don't believe a VI could be so stupid to disregard soldiers' lives as a military strength.
The Reapers would put deliberate use of a race's weakness, and they had no moral like mortals do...
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
True, and that was the main reason why Javik got Anti-AI Post Traumatic when he found out in The Normandy there are AI system that controls all of its (EDI). He even orders Shepard to put EDI or Legion into Airlock Room.
But the differences is Shepard never treat the AI as enemy or second guessing EDI as potential Friend or Battle Partner. That's why EDI found her true identity as a human being in Shepard's.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I'd say it's particularly because Joker's action in unshackling EDI that made it very significant. Also EDI chose to assist Shepard than leaning towards the Reapers because she didn't forget Joker's favor. Otherwise she'd only remember it was Cerberus/human who have created her and shackled her.
We'll see what happens in strips 4 and 5.
I have 70% of the plots done and am trying to make sense out of the villains.

You can't draw starships? YOU CAN'T DRAW STARSHIPS?!? SQUASH!!!!!! And by that I mean the vegitible.
I can't believe you said you can't draw starships, when I try to draw a Reaper it turns out like a deformed squid...from minecraft...ya that's right it's rectangular!
