MASS EFFECT:
PATHFINDER IN THE STAR'S
2819 CE: The events of Mass Effect Andromeda take place
The battle of Meridian ends, in no small part thanks to Pathfinder Ryder and the Pathfinder's team. A signal
from the Quarian ark is received, though no location is given. Efforts are underway to find them and bring them
home along with the other species inhabiting the ark.
2820 CE: Phase two of the Andromeda initiative begins. Rapid construction begins on the Dyson sphere
Meridian and other Initiative colony worlds. And the groundwork is put in place for a new galactic council, with
all species having a seat. Angaran have been invited and have accepted a seat on the Council.
As a replacement to the S.P.E.C.T.R.E (Special Tactics and Reconnaissance) program in the Milky Way, it is
decided that with the massive success of the Pathfinder's and their AI partner's. That they will instead fill this
role with all the perks that come with it, including being exempt from the law.
But with the memory of the traitorous S.P.E.E.C.T.R.E agent known as Saren Aterius and his attack on the
Citadel (2183 CE) with the Geth Dreadnought Sovereign still fresh in the minds of the former Milky Way
inhabitant's. It is agreed upon that the Pathfinders will have a oversight committee in place in hopes to stop a
situation such as that from occurring again.
2821 CE: It is decided that with the Kett still being a threat to all species in the Heleus Cluster. That a multi
species military would serve the Heleus Cluster better, than if they were divided as they were back in the Milky
Way. And also that priority should be placed on research into Remnant technology, in hopes it will allow control
of the remaining Remnant Vessels to buy time. And improve their own yet to be constructed fleets.
Construction on Orbital Shipyards begins above Eos and Elaaden.
2823 CE: With the remaining Remnant Ships sufficiently under The Andromeda Council's(T.A.C) control. And
significant advancements are made as a result. For example a far more capable FTL drive was developed after
intense research into the Kett's Ezzo powered Alcubierre drive. And genetic research jumped decades with data
obtained from both Kett and Remnant sources.
2825 CE: With increasing concern for the lack of Manpower needed to protect T.A.C territories one General
Tiran Kandros enlists the aid of famed Remnant expert Pelessaria B'Sayle(Peebee) in the effort to design a
mech using Remnant technology or to re-create a method to build Remnant mechs to remedy the problem.
Pelessaria B'Sayle(Peebee) Known for solving the problem that allowed control of Remnant Vessels, without the
aid of an AI or the sometimes Lethal stress it could put on an unaided mind. She is also known for being a
companion of the Famed Pathfinder Ryder.
The first Orbital shipyard finishes construction above Elaaden, shortly followed by Eos two months later. Eighty
more shipyards of various sizes are planned for construction, sixty of these will be military designated while the
rest will be for civilian use. The expectations are for the majority of them to be finished by 2060 CE.
The first ship's to be constructed, are the newly commissioned Garson class Frigate. The Garson Class Frigate
(named in honor of Jien Garson who spearheaded the Andromeda Initiative) will incorporate everything the
T.A.C has learned since arriving in the Heleus Cluster.
2826 CE: The First ship of the T.A.C Armed forces launches for the first time above Eos. The Garson Class
Frigate: C.A.V. Milky's Run goes on it's maiden voyage across the Heleus Cluster.
The Quarian ark is found, the situation surrounding this event is classified by order of the Council.

Garson Class Frigate: will be used as a scout and quick response vessel. To save time on Design we used the
Tempest as a base and enlarged it's Ninety Five meters to a frigate length of one-hundred and sixty meters.
And doing away with the luxurious amenities, in favor of standard military accommodations. It is our hope that
this will be the base that we will use to build the Tempest MK2, for future Pathfinder's, though minus the
luxurious amenities part.
Utility and mobility: The Garson Class will use the first military grade alcubierre drive, which will incorporates
features from the ODSY drive. It will keep the same sensor's as the tempest. One medbay, a tech lab and a
Q.E.C communication system.
Offensive Capabilities: The Garson class frigate wieldsa spinal mounted Thanix cannon. Two beam turrets
mounted on the top and bottom of the frigate. They are stored internally when not in use, to avoid unneeded
drag when in atmosphere and to be more accessible to repair. Two Bow mounted torpedo tube's, with eight
disruptor torpedo's. The ship should be able to hold up to three T.A.C Marine squads semi comfortably.
Defensive Capabilities: The Garson class frigate will run a Cyclonic Kinetic Barrier system. It will also
have our
newly improved guardian system, taking inspiration from the Remnant weapon cooling systems. And the hull
will be composed of Solaris grade ablative armor. The Ship will retain minor stealth capabilities but nowhere
near the level of the Tempest.
This concludes our report on the new Garson Class Frigate Signed: Gil Brodie & Kallo Jath
[End Report]
Pathfinder Ryder's son is born, he is named in honor of his grandfather Alec Rider
2827 CE: Pelessaria B'Sayle has succeeded in re-creating an remnant observer from scratch and developed a
way for mass production. The T.A.C armed forces begin mass production of the T.A.C Observer mech.
2832 CE: Pathfinder Ryder unveils the true purpose of the Andromeda initiative after receiving a signal from
the Milky Way from one Liara T'soni, telling the outcome of the Reaper war and the action's of Commander
Shepard. The outcome of this was as expected, confusion led to anger and riot's which led to sadness then to
understanding. More messages from the Milky Way started to be received from surviving families and friends,
providing some solace.
It was also during this time that Pathfinder Ryder unveiled the true capabilities of Humanities S.A.M. Reactions
were mixed though the majority supported S.A.M. Understanding that they are alive because of him and the
Pathfinder's teamwork.
After this event many express interest in creating more AI's. Which in turn brings up whether or not an AI
should have right's.
2835 CE: After years of arguing about AI right's it is finally voted upon by the Andromeda Council. The result
was eighty percent in favor, with stipulation's that an AI must be tethered to a Pathfinder as done by Pathfinder
Ryder and the Human AI S.A.M.
2840 CE: Ryder-1 begins small scale colonization after improvements to it's environment are made.
Pathfinder is granted land on Ryder-1
2846 CE: The Pathfinder builds a house on Ryder-1 for the Pathfinder's family
2860 CE: Alec Ryder and his wife give birth to Kim Ryder on Ryder-1. There are complication's during birth
and as a result death was imminent. If not for the presence of Pathfinder Ryder and Dr. Lexi T'Perro, she would
have died within a day.
With no other option, Pathfinder Ryder asks Dr. Lexi T'Perro to operate on Ryder's granddaughter in order to
install an Pathfinder class implant. With the operations success Pathfinder Ryder begins the Transfer of S.A.M
into Kim Ryder, In the process sacrificing the Pathfinder own life.
Report's state that the Pathfinder went out with a smile, while holding young Kim Ryder's hand and asking
S.A.M to look after her.
August 7 would therefore go on to be Pathfinder Day
2870 CE: With advances made from Kett and Remnant sources. Genetic research advances to staggering
level's, already life spans are rising among the T.A.C. species. Estimates put Human life spans at 800 years and
Salarians at 580 years. But this bring's into question problems that could arise from this, such as
overpopulation. So it is decided to limit the maximum lifespan to one point five thousand years. The Lifespan
limit is for all species in the T.A.C
2878 CE: Kim Ryder Graduates at the age of 18 from the Meridian University of technology. Questions are
brought up whether or not having an AI in your head would count as cheating in this situation. But are dropped
when it is revealed that without S.A.M she will die and without a host S.A.M will be terminated as per AI law,
therefore in a way qualifying them as one person.
Kim Ryder enlists in the T.A.C armed force.
2885 CE: Kim Ryder is promoted to Lieutenant commander after being pivotal to stopping the first Kett
invasion, since their departure in 2819.
2886 CE: Kim Ryder is discharged for unknown reasons.
[council report regarding then Lieutenant Commander Kim Ryder discharge]
As ordered I have looked into the discharge of one Kim Ryder for non-stated reason. How this got pass the
brass I have no idea but I'm guessing the admiral responsible for the Third Fleet (who is responsible for this
little incident) was pulling in a lot of favor's for it.
Now on to the reason for the discharge, Lieutenant Commander Kim Ryder was found in bed(in a very
compromising position I might add) with the Current Third fleet Admiral's Daughter and wife. So as you can
see, the reason for the discharge was (as the Human's say) the admiral got cucked (will provide link for
definition if requested)
This is Agent: T'lasa S'Vante
[End Report]
2887 CE: Kim Ryder is inducted into the Pathfinder program
2889 CE: Kim Ryder graduates from the Pathfinder program and begins Pathfinder apprenticeship under a
veteran Pathfinder for Ten years.
2900 CE: Pathfinder Kim Ryder achieve's full Pathfinder status and receives her Tempest Class Frigate. As a
pathfinder there is only one crew member per Tempest and are expected to find companions as they explore.
S.A.M node is transferred to the C.A.V. Tempest SR2.
Their first mission, the investigation of a Remnant signal near the Heleus black hole.
And so begins Pathfinder Kim Ryder's journey into a not so galaxy far, far away.
So there is like a 2% chance I will continue( I will put an effort in though) this but if I don't, I give
permission to use it. But the premise is for Kim Ryder to explore the Star wars universe starting
from the beginning of the prequels the phantom menace and to send tech and data back through to
Andromeda. And probably get a nice girlfriend while doing it. Of course this goes without saying
usually but harems are forbidden. Since 1. Creepy levels reaching weeboo rank and 2. It just takes
away from everything else and it all suffer's
While Ryder will be very powerful nobody is invincible, op characters suck after all. but Biotics will
kick major ass against Jedi and all that. Also it would be kinda cool to see a biotic coating an Asari
blade in Biotics and reflecting the lightsaber blade right into the Jedi or Sith using it with some
skillful appliance of backlash lol and since she is from another universe she will have no force
presence what so ever.
If you want to do the story just PM me with your idea of what you want to do with it
Oh and if you noticed that I did not once state whether or not it is Scott or Sara Ryder. It's so people
can make it there Ryder when they read it. Because it's a given no matter what gender and
romance option you pick you gonna have a baby to keep the population going. Whether through
artificial means or natural.
