Once a Rookie, Always a Rookie by Twisted Fate MK 2 reviews
(Credit to Adrasos on Archive and his story, Prepare to Drop, for the idea.) On the way down to New Mombasa, Rookie falls into the Slipspace Rupture and ends up crashing down on Menae, high above Palaven, while Shepard tries to find and rescue the new Primarch. From there, the war itself will shift and the fighting persists, but who knows what an ODST will add to the mix.

Beacon's Effect 4: Reckoning by Tusken1602 reviews
Sequel to "Beacon's Effect 3: Awakening." In our darkest hour, we follow the adventures of Ko'le and Shepard as they attempt to break a cycle that has existed longer than any could imagine, going on seemingly impossible missions against seemingly invincible foes. But for Shepard and Company, that is what they do best. Rated 'M' for violence, language, and 'stuff.'

Sense and Flexibility by Roarkshop reviews
The story of Garrus and Femshep as told by me. Lots of off-canon. Sequels incoming. TW: It's been brought to my attention that some of Garrus' more animalistic behavior in some scenes have caused panic attacks for victims of abuse. I am so sorry for anyone who had a similar reaction. SO sorry. I would like to make any new readers aware of this beforehand. Thank you.

Foreign Affairs by V-rcingetorix reviews
A short story depicting Commander Shepard in a mission set with an asari commando squad. Own characters used, and no, I do not own Mass Effect, or receive benefits from telling stories. So there. Rated T for innuendo, and that I have no clue what the rating system here mean. Let me know in a review or PM, eh?

Black Sun Rising by jazzpha reviews
Slight AU. After the Batarians raid Mindoir, a mercenary crew headed by Zaeed Massani shows up looking for their target.

If all their enemies don't kill them first, that is. Rated high T, for Zaeed.
