    Female lions still roar like male lions. I imagine it'd be the same for the leviathan class creatures.

    But what if I told you I could tell the difference between a male and female lion roar, a male and female dog bark, etc? B)

    Well barking and telepathy/speaking are two different things.

    They should get a chorus of the whole human vocal range and have them shout the words in your head with stereo settings.

    Or possibly something like having a bunch of people just repeating the same line, meshing them together, and playing them at the same time, and ending up with a message that sounds alien and strange, but is still understandable.

    Wouldn't it be "Sea Empress" then?

    Before the developers decided that there should be only one "gender" They said that even if it is female we should refer to it as the emperor.

    But that's grammatically incorrect.

    That's like calling a woman "sir" or "mr".

    The SPECIES is called a sea emperor, it just happens that the last surviving one is female. T rex had "king" in the name (rex is latin for king) but we don't call female ones "T-regina", now do we?(regina is latin for queen) Just clearing that up for people who wanted to know what to call a sea emperor. Sorry about the salt, I've just had to answer this TOO MANY times.

    Yep, never seen a female emperor penguin referred to as an empress before.

    Apology not accepted.

    A simple sentence long, salt-free answer would suffice. Frankly not that difficult and doesn't justify a snarky response.

    CAUSE IT PART OF HE MALE PATRIARCHY TO OWN WOMEN.

    So all animals reproduce like frogs except that females do both parts.

    Also i don't think the emperor should have a voice because that would make them seem more like villains. In my mind they are not wrong in any way and can even be seen as good, even when facing a cataclysmic event they sill care enough about life in the universe to set up a costly system to stop the spread of the disease.

    Is this a troll thread? Being male does not make something inherently hostile nor does being female make something gentle or passive.

    Borg Queen:

    Which one is less hostile?

    Unless the Sea Emperor Leviathan is telepathic or some other weird form of communication, it should use distorted whale sounds. Having it speak in English is far too disturbing.

    Apparently it is actually going to be telepathic.
