Sarothea T'Jaani (saw-row-THAY-uh tuh-JAW-knee), or Sara (SAW-ruh) for short, is a peculiar asari. She has done all of your typical asari things. She’s been a stripper, a pirate, a mercenary, a CEO, and a mob boss. But above all, she’s a survivor. She was kept at something called an Ardat-Yakshi monastery for much of her formative years. Ardat-Yakshi, or 'Demon of the Night Winds' in an old asari dialect, is a term for asari with a genetic condition of the same name.
Asari are capable of physical sexual reproduction, but also of melding. Melding is the creation of synchronicity between the asari and their partner or partners’ nervous system. Ardat-Yakshi melding has adverse effects on their partners, up to and including brain damage and even death.
Sara escaped the monastery during the Reaper attacks over a century ago, mistaken as a member of the staff rather than one of those under their care. She held out for a while before breaking. She had to meld with someone. It had built up in her head. She didn’t find finding someone all that difficult. She found a willing human at a seedy bar on the pitstop world she’d been living on and melded with her and… nothing. Well, no, meld-sex. That definitely wasn’t nothing. But her paramour didn’t die! She melded with her another three times that night, and then spent that weekend melding with every pretty woman who would get into bed with her. She wasn’t sick! But more importantly, someone had sent her to the monastery when she didn’t need to be there, and as a child! But why?
Asari are all, unless they choose to alter themselves later in life, what humans would describe as looking like women. Asari genitalia includes the azure, an organ remarkably like the human penis, as well as a cloacal flap leading to a uterus analogue located in the anus, so yes, traditional pregnancy, even by non-asari, is possible.
Important things to know about Sara kink-wise. She doesn’t have a genital preference, but definitely prefers women (but might bed a pretty boy if they strike her fancy.) She also prefers humans. She has a bit of a human fetish actually. She likes the way they smell and move and the patches of fur on their heads they call hair. She also enjoys feet, but only women’s, but enjoys giving footjobs to anybody she sleeps with.
