Legion

From Mass Effect Wiki

Legion
Unknown
Naturally Evolved Geth
Species: Geth
Rank/Title: Unknown
Location: Unknown



"Organics do not choose to fear us, It is a function of your hardware."


Legion is a geth that has learned to think on its own, separate from the neural network. It marks a "natural evolution" of the geth, who are normally tied to groups in order to maintain sentience, having developed the ability to operate independently and even speak. It bears a gaping hole in its right chest cavity.

Legion is voiced by D.C. Douglas


Legion is obsessed with Commander Shepard, even going so far as to have a piece of Shepard's discarded armor incorporated into its own. Shepard must eventually confront Legion to find out why it is hunting Shepard.

[edit] Trivia

  • Legion may be named after the biblical demon Legion, in reference to the quote "My name is Legion: for we are many.", as the geth possess a unifying neural network. A similar phrase is uttered by Sovereign during its encounter with Shepard in Mass Effect. Ironiclly Legion has "evolved" beyond that and no longer needs the neural network.
  • Legion may also be a possible squad member, due to the achievements "Friend or Foe":Gain geth technology and "A House Divided": Hack a geth collective, however it is unconfirmed.[1]
  • Legion was the first character revealed to be in Mass Effect 2, making an appearance in the teaser trailer
