Shepard didn't expect to wake up after shooting the power conduit. She knew that she had chosen her end. The end to it all. But then she takes a breath, and then another. She finds herself alive, after all that's happened and struggles with her newfound third chance at life. FemShep/Liara T'Soni

We don't get to choose where our story begins, where it takes us, and most certainly where it ends. The Reaper War may have ended twenty-five years ago, but aboard the SSV Hippocrates a Spectre takes his first steps on a journey that will decide the fate of a trillion souls.

Seven years after the Skyllian Blitz turned her world upside down, Dr. Maggie Shepard has finally put her life back together, finding happiness and peace on Eden Prime. But when the colony is attacked over a recently-discovered Prothean beacon, she is reunited with the one person she's spent the last seven years trying to forget.

When Terra Shepard's home on Mindoir is raided by batarian slavers, her entire family lost, she is left alone. Until she is discovered, rescued, and adopted by turians. Pre-ME1 to post-ME3

Shepard must make one final choice and one final leap before she can finally go to re-join Thane across the sea. (A repost of my attempt to vent my feelings after I finished ME3 for the first time. That ending did me dirty.)

Inspired by wondering what if ME 2 had ME Andromeda squad and crew interactions. Explore a Normandy were it has enough mommy, daddy and child issues to be a study in a psychological textbook. These are the semi-serious, semi humorous misadventures of the Crew of the SR2 Normandy.

Shepard goes to check on Garrus after the Sidonis mission.

Sai'ira the daughter of commander Shepard, finds herself locked in a deadly game of shadows in which she must help avoid war between the Citadel and the newly formed Terminus Systems federation.

Nobody wants to die. Not even freaks of nature.

REPOST. Reality changed with the advent of Humanity on the galactic stage. Relay 314 proved cynics correct in many ways, alien life was the end of our golden age. Innocence was lost, xenophobia followed, rooting itself deep within society. From the ashes of Shanxi arose the Alliance, new protector and unifier of humanity. But so did their rivals. Cerberus.

In the year 2186, disaster struck. A massive enemy force known as the Reapers set to erradicate the entire galaxy of living things. Trillions upon trillions of lives were lost, but all thanks to one woman, Commander Jane Shepard, the war was won. Her sacrifice had given the entire galaxy hope, but one Turian, Garrus Vakarian, still held out hope that the woman he loved had made it.

One shot. Commander Shepard and his wife, Tali, return to Earth to enjoy a belated honeymoon before he must face the consequences of his actions.

Garrus ends up making a huge mistake with Shepard after their suicide mission to the collector base, and now, he needs help making things right with his lover. Garrus/FShepard all the way! Rated M for sexual content and language

A group of college students traverse to Mars on a mission created by NASA, only to discover an Prothean integrated Remnant device that transports them hundreds of years into the future and another far off galaxy: Andromeda. Our lead heroine, Evangeline Roberts, gets swept up in current events when she encounters the Pathfinder, Scott Ryder, who's professionalism seems overbearing.

Born into the Mass Effect universe 400 hundred years too early, to a mother who will hunt me down and a mass murdering twin sister as sprinkling. But I can move objects in with my mind, so that's nice. Updates sporadically for now.

A context/companion piece to A Divided Earth: The First War. Through succeeding in the Suez Crisis, Britain and France reassert themselves as major world powers, and after the Cuban Missile Crisis form a third pillar in the Cold War. By 2157, the British and French Empires dominate global politics, and extra solar colonisation, though they are not without competitors...

A THIRD set of updates to the original! That's right, I'm so incompetent I had to redo it YET AGAIN. Expanded notes on every aspect of the Systems Alliance, from ships, weapons, and armor to government, complete orders of battle, and more terms. Now updated (May 2021) with tactical considerations, plus the March 2020 updates.

Commander Hayden J. Shepard of the SSV Normandy recruits an elite recon squad to cross a turmoiled galaxy in a desperate race to stop the return of an enemy who holds no mercy. To prevent this outcome, Shepard must act outside the limits of the law without remorse and hesitation. Her only imperative is to preserve the safety of civilized life in the galaxy - at any cost.

Kind of a different approach to fan fiction: almost like a graphic novel. There is an overarching universe, but each chapter is supposed to stand on its own. Instead of telling one narrative story, every chapter focuses on and investigates a different aspect of a character. Some dramatic, some romantic, some action-oriented. Mainly set between ME2 and 3. This is my first fan fic.

"Mordin is the most celebrated geneticist and doctor in the galaxy, and Miranda brought me back to life from scraps. What makes you think there's any good reason that you have to die?"

Almost a quarter of a century has passed since the end of the Reaper War. The massive beings that once tried to destroy life, now help preserve peace. As the rest of the Galaxy moves on with their lives, Miranda Lawson struggles to forget. An ominous new danger reunites old friends and forces Miranda into a life she thought she'd left behind. Unrelated to the Fate series.

Commander Shepard's cybernetics gave him a new lease on life, giving him a chance to fight off the Reapers, fall in love, and live a life after the war. The price to pay, however, would be the same as the gift he received: time. [Separate from ME:Resistance].

AU/ While Garrus mourns the death of the human Spectre who had claimed his heart, Lazarus Station is raided by Collectors. With their most influental opponent gone and the races struggling for unity, the Reapers launch their attack. When Shepard finally wakes and finds that her life is not her own anymore, she realizes that there are fates worse than dying. Much worse.

Eden Prime set off a chain of events that affected the Normandy crew for years to come. It was the first time Kaidan Alenko worked with Commander Shepard, and over time things between them began to change. They had a long journey, both together and apart. MShenko with Earthborn Shepard.
