Coming to terms with being reborn? Doable. Finding out you're in the Mass Effect universe? Slightly more difficult. I know I'm no soldier material but I want to do what I can to help save the galaxy. To that goal I will become one of the worst beings in human society. A businessman and politician. A SI/OC-story of a different kind.

In a world where the mind creates what is real at the wish of a thought, Lothairaxl bears forth from a moon not far from Earth. The genes of a civilization wove forth to make it real. Artificial intelligence breaks boundaries so soon after the Reapers' demise, but how? The story of a planet in which lust blooms by salty shores and lives across species blend against understanding…

When I bought the Legendary Edition of Mass Effect I'd expected to re-live the wonder of the game, I never expected to actually 'live' it though

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.

The Protheans eliminated the Reapers but their population has dwindled to hundreds and unable to continue their empire. How the story would go without the Reapers. FemShep.

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 series of fics spanning the end of ME1 to post ME3. Inspired by song titles/lyrics. Femshep/Liara

Every great once in a while you stumble upon something that changes your world and makes you fall in love with it. For me, that was Mass Effect; but that love affair only existed for the series to break my heart with a lackluster ending. Little did I know, the universe of Mass Effect needed me - and as it turned out, I needed it, too. (SI)(AU)

I'm not a good person. I've killed, and will continue to. However, here and now I have a chance to be better. To make the galaxy better and I'm going to take it. No matter what I have to go through, what I have to endure. I will help Shepard create a better galaxy, even at the cost of my life I will help create a better galaxy. Updates every Saturday.

5 years post DE AU: Best Left Said. Osco is gone. Spectre T'soni and Dr. Shepard are now scouring the galaxy for any traces of advanced exo-alien tech in order to preserve the safety of their home from similar such threats. But there is more than one universe out there; more than one T'soni, and more than one Shepard, as well. All just as determined, but not all heroes.

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.

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.

Total war demands victory at any cost. After the destruction of the Bahak System, Emilia Shepard returns home just in time for the Reaper invasion. The galaxy finds itself in a race against time: win the war before there's no one left to fight. ME3, canon-divergent with a focus on the milscifi and off-screen moments, multiple POVs, paragade Shepard.

Two and a half years after he helped Shepard destroy the Reaper Sovereign, Michael Liddle restlessly waits for the Commander's return. He knows what is coming, but will he be able to stop it? A continuation of Mass Effect: Interloper. Self Insert. Rated T for Terrific.

There are two constants in life for the crew of the Normandy. Firstly, danger is around every corner. Any mission may be their last. Secondly, Shepard's fish are all doomed to die of starvation. These are the stories of the crew as they struggle through the perils of their leader's pets dying.

Cerberus has spent billions of credits trying to bring Commander Jane Shepard back from the dead, and despite the odds it seems to be working. Then a saboteur inside of Cerberus makes his move and Shepard's resurrection takes a horrific turn, leaving both the Alliance and Cerberus scrambling to control the situation...all while the Collectors begin their harvest of humanity.

Peaceful coexistence? Why not? The two superpowers of the 20th century retained their leading positions in the bipolar world, and the shaky cooperation, that replaced the tough confrontation, is preparing to face new challenges when in 2148 a beacon of an ancient civilization is found on Mars... (AU) [Fanfic translation!]

What really hears you in the void of space besides atoms in your body ceasing to spin? Commander Shepard of the Mass Effect universe is brought to life in this author's telling of an alternate universe—or six. Races of intelligence, good will and the sour, involve themselves in the affairs of this woman. Krogans are honorable—salarians hold power. Turians lay the foundations….

Shepard heads to the crew deck for midnight snack, but finds what she was really looking for all along. An exploration of a Shepard/Legion romance arc. **This femshep's appearance is never described beyond her having hair, I welcome you to imagine her any way you like. :)

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.

Join Miranda Lawson and her unlikely band of allies as she lurches around the Terminus trying to avoid the Reapers, Cerberus, the Citadel authorities, and a long list of aliens she ever harmed during her long terrorist employment, long enough to save her sister from her father's evil clutches. Miranda - ME3 setting - written as if in canon universe

Ashley Williams finds herself at the heart of a blood feud between her distant ex-lover and the Milky Way's most infamous information dealer. (Sequel to "Don't Get Too Close." Alternate Universe - Canon. Story events closely follow those of ME2: Lair of the Shadow Broker DLC.)

Our story takes place after Humanity narrowly avoids destroying itself and despite all odds manages to learn from its mistakes. Being a better, kinder species when they encounter another race in need they pull out all the stops to lend assistance.

My take on Shepard and Tali's love scene before the assault on the Collector base.

What if Shepard survived the Battle of the Citadel and reunited with the quarian he adored? A post story following the end of the Reaper Wars. Might add more depending. Pairings: Talimancer, AshleyxJames NOTE: Contains cursing and some sexual themes.
