Species: angara
A humanoid alien race from the Mass Effect video game universe.
The angara are the only known extant sapient race native to the Heleus Cluster of the Andromeda galaxy. By the time of the Andromeda Initiative's first contact with them, the angara had been waging a decades-long resistance against the invading kett.
The angara are warm-blooded mammals. They have a similar leg structure to a quarian, a salarian or a kett, along with relatively broad shoulders and narrow waists. They have two black eyes with blue irises, a single pair of nostrils, and folds of flesh on the sides of their heads that extend to their chests.
Angara hands have the bone structure for five fingers, but the final three fingers on each hand are densely webbed together into a single digit. Their feet have a similar build: five "toes", of which three are fused together and one appears to be an opposable "thumb", giving the impression they stand on hands.
Angara are sexually dimorphic: male angara are taller than females, and females have wider hips and rounder faces. Skin colors feature various shades of blue or mauve, sometimes shading into green or tan. Their blood is deep blue in color. Their voices are slightly distorted, comparable to drell or Prothean samples.
The angara are creations of the Jardaan, an advanced alien race native to Heleus that were also responsible for creating the Remnant machines. The Jardaan designed the first angarans centuries ago and seeded them on several planets within the Heleus Cluster. The reasoning behind the creation of the angara is unknown.
