The Pulse is what the Quarians call the destructive wave sent out by the Citadel that destroyed the Reapers. It has affected their planet more than anywhere else. Desperate for answers, Tali is tasked - who is still on Earth helping Shepard recover - with finding those answers. What she finds could change everything - for her, for her people, and for those that have been lost.

A continuation and remaster of Mal Cobb's A Measure of Salvation, a harrowing, intense, and visceral epic spanning from ME2 to ME3. Miri/Shepard pairing. Action! Mystery! Fluff! Adventure! Suspense! Chapters posted frequently, and would love to hear your suggestions! M for graphic violence, drug use, language, sexual content (Most of the content up till c.45 is Mal Cobb's work)

Quelques mois après la fin de la guerre, un soldat décide de disparaître, sans se rendre compte que cette décision va mener deux grandes puissances à la confrontation, dans une galaxie encore loin de la guérison.

Layla wanted a small ceremony. No one had time for an extravagant party, the credits were better spent elsewhere, the two of them wanted something small from the start... So she found herself trapped in her cabin aboard the Normandy, held hostage by Miranda, trying and failing to talk her way out of whatever they had planned.

It's been years since the Reaper War ended. The threat is over and all is well. Right? ...Right? Well here I am again. Couldn't stay away. I reckon a part of me will always dwell with these people and this galaxy and frankly, that ain't so bad. For those who haven't read Resolve this may not make much sense, so I recommend you start there.

In the years since her family was killed, J.R. Shepard has learned to put the personal aside in favor of the professional. But as the galaxy's crises become her responsibility, as she gathers around her the people who will aid her, she finds a new family, and love that she never expected, and will have to learn how to put the two halves of herself back together.

10 years since the war ended. The last mass relay is built and Normandy's crew gather for its activation. But something goes awry and an explosion opens a rift. Sucked through space and time into another universe 3 years before the Reaper Invasion. What will Shepard change? How will it change her? Inspired by Found by Kate Shepard on AO3 Beta edits by Kogarashi: Progress 2/17

SAM wanted to experience feelings through her? Well, buckle up, because Sara Ryder had a crapton. Game novelization, liberties taken.

Part of her was still convinced that it was some sort of ruse or prank on the krogan's part; it was simply too good to be true. Commander Shepard, alive and in Andromeda? She refused to believe it. (partial re-write of my last fic 'star-crossed', significantly expanded, cross-posted on Ao3 under the same name)

With Sovereign defeated, the galaxy can rest, but only for a moment, as the Reapers still lurk on the outskirts. During this whole ordeal of events, among the SSV Normandy, two souls grew close with each other, but before they could join as one, an unknown enemy separated them, claiming the life of one, leaving the other sunk in grief... or so they thought.

Commander Veronika "Nick" Shepard, Hero of the Blitz and Sole Survivor of Akuze, is candidate to be the first human Spectre. She has a loyal crew to help her succeed with her mission, and finds not only camaraderie, but also love. Her relationship with Kaidan Alenko is put through a severe test, though. Canon divergent. Rated M for later chapters.

Tali'Zorah was just looking for a worthy pilgrimage gift, but is sucked into the adventure of her liftime instead. At the helm: Commander Shepard, greatest hero of the Alliance. But with a life of violence and loss behind him and the weight of the galaxy on his shoulders, Tali soon finds that perhaps John Shepard needs her just as much as she needs him... Mostly Tali/Shepard POV

Goddess of mind, goddess of heart - closed-off without consent, She cannot flourish; unlocked to the universe in trust and control, She protects from all outside influences. Only one sits atop the throne of Shepard's subjectivity. Ashley/FemShep, Liara/FemShep. Miranda/FemShep, Aria/FemShep. Power plays, intense loves. Renegon Infiltrator FemShep. Spans the Mass Effect Trilogy.

With friends and family at her side, Dr Liara T'Soni travels the galaxy, digging up the long-lost trail of the Protheans. Setting aside her life as an active Spectre, Shepard settles into domestic life (of sorts) to accompany Liara on her journey. Finally, a life full of peace, love and happiness becomes reality… and the long-awaited little blues get to make their appearance.

A Mass Effect retelling from Tali's perspective, with one major change. She knew Shepard when she was a child. AU obviously

La fin de la guerre ne signifie pas toujours la paix, surtout pour celle qui a tout donné. C'est l'histoire de Shepard, la fin de l'histoire, dans la tourmente de la douleur et des blessures, qui marquent l'âme et qui torturent.

Shepard just came back from a battle and she wants to spend some time relaxing with her girlfriend Liara.

Commander Scott Gardner ends up embroiled in a desperate race against time when a Human colony is attacked by a galactic hero-turned-traitor. Through visions seen only by him, he learns that the entire galaxy, and all its denizens, are in terrible danger. Will their leaders listen? Will he and his friends be enough to stave off annihilation before it is too late? The fight is on!

FemShep's investigation of Cerberus' nefarious activities, while she struggles with questions about her own identity. This story is not super canon compliant, but it fits with the story, especially if you aren't too personally attached to your own version of Shepard. It aims to fill in the gaps and is told from Ash's point of view. Rated T for swears. FemShep/Ashley (but not yet).

Join the Andromeda Initiative, Work for the great Alec Ryder, Make the first Human Pathfinder's Team, Settle Humanities new Home World, and hopefully get a promotion. These were all on Lieutenant Cora Harper's to-do list. Falling in love with The Pathfinder was never part of the plan. Then again, neither was his Son.

This story revolves mainly around John Shepard and Miranda Lawson. The story of their separation and reunion... and of course the Reapers are coming. Only John and his friends believes the legend of the Reapers. Can they stop the cycle of extinction which happens every 50000 years?

Shepard finds himself falling in love with the violent, complex woman known only as Jack. This is the story of their relationship from Mass Effect 2 and beyond. Rated M for language, violence and suggestive themes. Mass Effect 3 arc now in progress!

Mass effect 1 Novelisation A rogue soldier leads un unstoppable force across the galaxy and only one woman stands between the galaxy and extinction

In 2170 Mindoir was raided by batarian slavers, killing or enslaving the entire colony. It was thought that the first human spectre, Commander Shepard, was the sole survivor of the brutal attack. But when evidence that his sister is alive comes to light, his world is turned upside down. Profile has full description.
