Shepard is dead, everyone went their own way and it's Thursday again. Now I have two full years to get myself ready for her return. Get myself back into better shape, stockpile some weapons... simple enough, right? With the way things were going so far, I think I should have expected that nothing will ever be so simple.

"There is a dead darkspawn on the hood of my car." How one modern man deals with his sudden appearance in Ferelden. Rated T for strong language, violence, and sexual situations. OCs plus the entire ragtag DA:O team.

Suspend belief and imagine if Duncan had somehow defied the laws of time and physics to recruit all potential candidates from their origins in time for Ostagar? The Result: Chaos on the history of Ferelden and Thedas. Current Location: Team 1 en-route to Soldier's Peak and Team 2 on the road to Honnleath. 70 to 80% faithful to source material.

Mass Effect is a great game. A fun game. But the fun and games stop when it all becomes real...when I find myself on the Citadel, with the terrible knowledge of what's coming. Can one person really make a difference? I'm sure as hell going to try, because the Reapers aren't taking over this galaxy on my watch.

When I woke up I expected it to be a regular, mundane and boring day. What I definitely did NOT expect was me ending up on the Citadel, which happens to be in a totally different universe. God I hate thursdays.

All Origins may be true, but that doesn't mean it'll be easy to take out that pesky archdemon. Between a xenophobic Dalish, a reformed playboy, a mage prodigy with a bad temper, and others, getting through the Blight without strangling one another (or Alistair, for that matter) will be hard enough.

Nathan West has spent two years mourning the death of his family as a result of a burglary gone wrong. When he is propelled into the Mass Effect universe for reasons he can't explain, he comes to find out that for him, this might not just be a game after all.
