Butterfly Effect by GaleSynch reviews
AU: They say a flap of a butterfly's wings can cause a hurricane on the other side of the world. In other words, one small difference can change some major event. Did I believe it? No. I didn't. Not until the day I died. Self-Insert in pre-Riddle era.

Closer by Riseha reviews
My life took a completely different turn when I woke up in prison Nurmengard and found that I'd switched bodies with a girl named Germaine Grindelwald. I never knew insanity lurked in my mind and could've been exploited so easily. Self-Insert as morally-bent!OC. Quite AU. Slytherin!Harry & Hermione.

Clara's idea of normalcy changes unexpectedly when an experiment gone wrong projects her into a fictional world – one she knows all too well. But how will she survive five years until Shepard arrives? And what is Cerberus planning in the interim? "Self-Insert" AU, leads up to Shakarian romance in ME2. T for violence, language, and sexuality. Rating may go up.

Meet Me by kallysti reviews
I am new at fan fiction, and don't know all of the lingo. This is not a self-inserted story but it may be a someone inserted story, or it may not. I honestly don't know. This is a short piece about what might happen to someone after Shepard takes that famous quick breath in a Post Reaper world.

Massive Shock 2: Infinite Mass by Mockingbird79 reviews
In late 2181, I woke up on the Citadel, in another Universe. Of course, that's not so strange, considering I'd just spent 6 years in Rapture. But now, one year later, it's time for Shepard, Saren, the Reapers... Mass Effect. The epic continuation of the Massive Shock Self Insert Series. Cover by Skyline19.

Characters of Engineer Effect (Insertions) by Rickhunter1997
Kinda self explanatory. These are the dossiers of the insertion characters. Their task, to stop unknown threats to the galaxy, to boldly face what no man has faced before. Sorry if you don't like Star Trek, that kinda just popped into my head as I was writing this down.

Quarian Chronicles by nickharris411 reviews
Four friends are sucked into the Mass Effect universe a year after the events of Mass effect 1. Read their story as they struggle to survive in a universe they thought they knew with bodies they don't know and abilities they never had. Drama and violence galore. Will combine with ME2 and is also (kinda) self insert. Femshep ftw.

Hazel Eyes by SpokeInward reviews
Sercy Daniels ends up in the Mass Effect universe with untold strengths and spends a great deal of time figuring out her purpose in this world...other than helping F!Shepard. Semi-self insert. Starting at ME1 and working my way up. May or may not follow canon in some parts. I welcome your comments and I hope you enjoy this journey! Bioware owns it all...except Sercy. She's mine.

Breaking the Cycle by Solas Nocturne reviews
Waking up to the sound of an explosion is not how most people envision starting their day. Neither is waking up in an unfamiliar galaxy, but it's not like I had any say in the matter. Starts before events of Mass Effect and will span all three games. OC/self-insert

Arrivals In Effect by Mr.Crowbar reviews
We all have read the excellent stories of Self Inserts, Dimension Travelers and Time Travelers doing relatively good in the Mass Effect universe. But what if, in the constant migration of people into the Mass Effect universe, were some more unfortunate ones. The ones, who weren't able to be as much as others, or were simply unlucky.

Universal Masses by LeShyWolf reviews
All I remember is a striking statue of Javik and his eerie golden eyes- then suddenly I'm here. On Omega. One of the darkest slums and stinky armpit of the galaxy. I stumble over constant obstacles, go through hell, all while trying to desperately cling to life. Will I ever get home? Self-insert. (HIATUS)

Outsider Effect by Myrdraxxis reviews
I went to sleep, and woke up in the Mass Effect universe. Sounds like the beginning of any old self-insert story right? Well, it turns I woke up in the year 2176. Seven years before Mass Effect. Now I have to somehow make it alone in this universe without getting killed off or completely losing it. Seriously, I might never sleep again. M for violence and language.

The Transmigration Effect by Twisted Platypus reviews

Bridges by Palladius reviews
Cast into a universe he thought only existed behind a screen, Ivan joins the crew of the Normandy as they pursue Saren and the Geth across the galaxy. The catch: bridges can be crossed both ways. A self insert and slight alternate universe. Rated M for graphic violence and sexual content.

Mass Confusion by Selena Shepard reviews
I never wanted to die, but when fate takes my life away, I find myself trapped in a universe I never thought existed. Now, I must guide the Savior of the Galaxy in the correct path with what little knowledge I possess. The galaxy is in danger, and I must help to save it, or bring forth its destruction. Self Insert. Slightly non canon.
