The krogan are a species of large reptilian bipeds native to the planet Tuchanka. The krogan thrived on this unforgiving planet and became more technologically advanced, particularly in weaponry. Their once thriving numbers are now significantly reduced because of a war with the turians. A genophage was activated by the Turians, although some beleive this was ordered by the council. This genetic punishment prevents Krogans from reproducing.
