A divided Earth. As the 20th century progressed, humanity found itself deep into another Cold War. The discovery of Prothean Ruins on Mars propelled the conflict into the stars. An overzealous Turian patrol dragged the rest of the galaxy into the political quagmire of Great Power competition.

A Valentine's Day, 2022 story featuring one-shots centered around some of my leading asari and their significant others. See full summary inside! Happy Valentine's Day, all!

Commander Shepard gave up her life at the Crucible to end the war and give her people a chance for peace. She never expected to wake up again. A short story of life after (almost) death. Again.

The Crucible has been fired. The crew of the Normandy, having crash landed on an uncharted world, scramble to repair their ship and reestablish communication with the Alliance Fleet. Uncertainty weighs heavily on the crew, especially its quarian engineer, who wonders if she will ever see her home, or the man she loved, ever again.

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.

Follow Matriarchs Lidanya and Irissa three centuries before the events of 2183. What drew them together and nearly tore them apart? First of four stories in this series.

Sequel to Morinth's Revenge. With the Council permitting Ardat-Yakshi to integrate in societies across the galaxy, Falere finds her peace working for Councillor Irissa on the Citadel. Despite her genetic defect, she is adamant to prove her worth and has sworn off relationships. But what if 'The One' is closer than she thinks... Image courtesy of Dragon Age Wikia.

An alternate universe revolving around the legend of the assassin drell—Thane Krios.

Meet Aki Shepard younger sister of the Great Commander Jane Shepard, follow her as she travels with her sister and the crew of Normandy to kick ass and save lives.

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.

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...
