[[WMG: Loomis was the one that killed Sofia]]
* During the trial Loomis shows disdain for Sofia betraying the Onyx guard by helping the others disobey direct orders, and it seems likely he wouldn't take too well to Sofia leaving to be with Paduk, a UIR soldier whom Loomis showed contempt towards, so he sent some other COG soldiers out to execute her for "treason" or something like that. I'm guessing this will be addressed in the fifth game where Paduk agrees to help the main characters in exchange for tracking down Sofia's killers.

[[WMG: Immulsion is really [[MetroidPrime Phazon]].]]
All of the above criteria also apply to Phazon, and the ''MetroidPrime'' series has shown that it can take different colors, at least blue and red, so why not a sickly yellow-green? It was the first thing I thought of after reading "Immusion is sentient" above.

*** I don't know, I think that when Elain went underground to look for Imulsion crystals she...changed. I can easily see her changing her name and appearance to the point where Marcus couldn't recognized her, not to mention he hasn't seen her in decades.

After all, the only thing we have as prove she's dead is a tombstone and Marucs and JD's word. She might have pulled an Adam Fenix and is in hiding, or working on some COG project in secret. Marcus knows but has kept it secret from JD which will come to light in Gears 5 or 6.

[[WMG:The [=DeeBees=] were invented by Baird.]]
* [=DeeBee=] = D.B. = Damon Baird. This can answer the above question as to why they weren't deployed during the Locust War. Baird probably used some of the research left by the scientists at Azura to help him come up with the idea.

[[WMG: The DeeBees were MEANT to be crapshoots to most of humanity]]
* Important question: WHY DIDN'T HUMANITY DEPLOY THESE THINGS TWENTY-FIVE YEARS AGO?! The technology is clearly so advanced that the oldest prototypes would have made Jack a relic of the past. Thing is, the COG wasn't some unified defense of humanity, but a ruthless oligarchy that was on the verge of world domination when one stupid mistake (not dealing with the mutants before they bred the Locust) screwed everything up. It's possible that these weapons of war were originally meant to industrialize the subjugation of humanity, which would complete the steam-cyber-punk theme, and kept in storage so that if humanity (or the Locust) eventually won the Locust war, the old leaders would have a robot army ready to subjugate the winners, and were slowly upgraded by would-be EmperorScientist oligarchs.
** It's possible that someone is taking advantage of a second Human-Underworld war to raid the supplies they need to finish their Bunker, hunker down and send troops until the war and storms kill off the remaining population, and be the last faction standing.

In ''MassEffect3'', Chakwas will be a romance option for a male Shepard. A Paragon interruption will allow you to [[TakingTheBullet take a bullet]] for her and allow her to fulfill her dream of tending to a handsome soldier and falling in love with him she alluded to at the beginning of the first game. If you tell her that you aren't interested and you only took the bullet for her because you are [[AFatherToHisMen A Father To Your Men]], she starts becoming a StalkerWithACrush and harasses you throughout the whole game. Eventually you have the Renegade option to fire her and tell her to get lost. Chakwas snaps and goes AxCrazy, killing several [[RedShirt nameless crew members]] and leaving in an escape pod. She winds up on Sera during the Pendulum Wars, and all of the human men in military uniform she sees everywhere remind her too much of Shepard, so she hides herself in a cave and winds up in the Hollow. She decides to live with the Locust instead, eventually becoming their queen, but she never loses that grudge she has against humans and human soldiers.

* Sometime in the future, nuclear weapons become far more destructive than present day. When the nations of Earth actually use these weapons, they radically alter the environment and the shape of the continents. In the ensuing dark age, nearly everything about the pre-war world-even the name of Planet Earth-is forgotten. Eventually, human civilization rebuilds itself into the form seen in the games' backstory.

* They lack female secondary sexual characteristics (boobs) because the Locust aren't mammals (an aversion of NonMammalMammaries, which is noticeable in the Berserkers as well). Ragers start out shorter and with slenderer frames that regular Locust, but temporarily mutate into giant SmashMook enemies when enraged. If they are adolescent Berserkers, then this means that as they age their "rage state" becomes permanent, and also grows larger and more heavily armored. The war with the Lambent stunting the growth of the Locust population would also explain why they don't appear in the later games (by that time, they'd all matured into Berserkers, with no new younger ones to replace them).
