Summary
The Crucible is an ancient and highly complex device constructed by the Protheans as a super weapon to stop the Reapers, but never successfully implemented before their extinction. Its designs were stored in a Prothean archive onMars and were later rediscovered by a Systems Alliance archaeological team. During the Reaper invasion of 2186, the designs are recovered by Commander Shepard on Admiral Steven Hackett's orders after the fall of Earth. The Crucible becomes the galaxy's last hope.
