Well I mean isn't Jack an L5? She's a little bit older than the Ryder twins I should guess. I know that if Shepard is a biotic, it's been established (I think...) that she's an L3. So I was trying to think in terms of the timeline that they would be early L5s or maybe late L4s.

Ahhh, good point! I kept thinking of Kaidan being L2 and Shepard L3 and thinking L4/5 would be much later; but then Ryder is younger than Shepard, so...maybe?
The only reservation I have is that those with high biotic potential like Jack (L5) and Cora (gods even know) seemed to have been tapped for bigger and brighter things than where the Ryder twins are prior to departure to Andromeda. I don't know if their L-rating would be influenced by that, or simply by age/generations of technology. Hrm.

My initial thoughts are Mike Gamble or Fernando Melo. Most of the high level writers on MEA aren't on Twitter that I'm aware of, and I don't know who the ME Lorekeeper is like I do for Dragon Age. :P (But since he also worked on MEA, he might know who to ask, if those two fail).

' and Cora (gods even know) '
If Cora is 5+ years older than the twins (I have no idea how old she is), she wouldn't have made it in time for the L4 Ascension implants, so I'd guess she's L3.

The twins were 13 when the Ascension Project started, so they could have been part of that and given the Ascension specific L4 implants. I'm convinced the L5 were brand new in Mass Effect 2, so there is no way they were using them.
So yeah, I guess up to your headcanon depending on when they manifested. L3 or L4.

No? The L5s weren't even close to existing when she was being experimented on. Best guess she would be an L2.
