A continuation of ME: Book II - The Spectre Chronicles. After waking up in a Cerberus space station, Shepard demands answers and finds out that she had died two years prior with the destruction of the Normandy. With two years of her absence, how will the galaxy react to her returning, and how will she react to what the galaxy has become?

The galaxy is once more turned upside down in a war that has raged for longer than most can remember. I thought it was over... I hoped it was over. I was wrong.

The war is over! Shepard was buried alive and recovered in a strange state of unconsciousness. She will have to take a long trip, retracing her last four years, through the memories of Liara, sometimes wonderful sometimes frightening. Her unlimited love, their invincible bond, will be the only things can keep her holding on that irrevocable promise ... "I'm always coming back"!

"Director's Cut" of the ME epic, fleshing out who our heroes are and how they got that way. Slowly veering off to an AU: The Savior of Elysium IS the Butcher of Torfan, medevac Jenkins, Liara returns to Ilos to reboot Vigil, Shepard rescues Kenson w/ Thane & Kasumi, Aria gets executed, Legion knows TIM is indoctrinated, the Collectors have directed TIM to scuttle Normandy...

Follow the path of the Wanderer and journey through three galactic cycles of life and death against the Reapers - an epic telling of lost stories spanning from the distant reaches of time to the Normandy and her crew.

Liara T'Soni is a very determined archaeologist who isn't worried to do a little tomb raiding to discover ancient knowledge. Cam Shepard is an ex-Alliance mercenary with a thing for people much smarter than she is. There's no way they'll get up to anything dangerous together, right?

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.

After Tali is forced to kill her first person in a particularly gruesome way, the event so shakes her that she isolates herself, hoping to deal with it alone. Shepard does not let her get away that easy. (set near the beginning of ME1, somewhat-explicit descriptions of violence)

Jane Shepard has been a mercenary since 2180, having followed a different path in life compared to her brother. Five years later, she joins his team on the Normandy SR-2, intent on taking down the Collectors. Her first mission? Quarian politics. [AU, Shepard siblings. Slow-burn Jane/Tali (and perhaps one more later on). John's pairing to be decided later. Starts mid- to late ME2.]

What starts off as a mission for a former soldier turned soldier of fortune turns into far more than he bargained for. What happens when you discover a conspiracy affecting the entire galaxy? Rated M for action, language

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

Commander Shepard isn't as fearless as everyone believes him to be. Sovereign, the Collectors, and Aratoht have made Shepard doubt the Milky Way can survive the cycle. Hope exists, however, in another galaxy. (Andromeda reimagined, aims to be less disappointing and less controversial than the original.) Shepard/Liara

Garrus and Thane have been searching the ends of time for Jane Shepard. Every time they find her, she slips through their fingers.

The world turns, even after a hero falls. Lines are drawn, blood is spilled, and in the shadows, an ancient power stirs. The galaxy needs a hero to rise to the occasion, and live up to her father's legacy...

Evfra is stricken with the Angaran flu and is forced to stay at home under quarantine. Per Angaran culture, he would have been taken care of by his family and very close friends. Without either, Evfra decides to suffer alone. What he had not expected was for Sara Ryder, Pathfinder extraordinaire, to show up at his doorstep as his self proclaimed caretaker. {Full summary inside}

A detailed breakdown of the structure of the Human Systems Alliance and their vehicles. To create this, I have combined preexisting lore with my own head canon in order to organise and flesh out the Systems Alliance. This guide is tied to my novelisation of the mass effect games and is constantly being updated as I go.

Miranda is feeling kinda lonely... and what the hell is EDI doing?

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

In the aftermath of her father's death and her exile both, Tali is left to confront the implications of all she has lost: her family, her people, her home. A discussion with a mentor helps her to understand just how much she still has, in spite of her losses. (set two months after Debt and Repayment)

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

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.

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.

Lieutenant Commander Shepard didn't know that she was never supposed to be on the Normandy, much less receive visions from the beacon on Eden Prime. But Fate, it seems, is a fickle mistress, and now she finds herself chasing a rogue Spectre across the galaxy. A re-imagining of ME1 with additional content that expands on the events of the game.

All Theo wants is real romance. But all she gets are fast calls and empty loves. Unfortunately love is more than basic run of the mill dating. It's messy and it's painful. Like birthing a walrus painful. Is the single life her destiny? Or will something out of the ordinary finally give Theo the security and comfort, she's been looking for?

Reyes Vidal... Sara Ryder. Two different people with two different goals in Andromeda. Could it really work? Or would secrets, lies and new dangers tear them apart? Based on my own Ryder from the game. All other characters are owned by Bioware.
