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.

They thought themselves invulnerable, invincible, and infallible. They thought themselves the apex of all life, they thought of themselves gods. But in their arrogance, the reapers would make a fatal mistake. They would not notice some Prothean refugees discreetly moved both nearby mass relays away form the primitive humanity, thus cutting them off from all reaper influence.

Four hundred years into the Long Exile, the Migrant Fleet is on the brink of collapse. Every day, the quarian people inch ever closer to extinction, with any dreams of a new home seeming ever more hopeless... Until Captain Rael'Zorah makes a discovery that will shake the foundations of galactic civilization for eons to come.

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?

Humans have been on the galactic scene for many years. Viewed down upon by many species, humanity has caught the attention of the quarians who have located and made contact with the Alliance Carrier SSV Einstein orbiting Mindoir. This meeting could create new alliances and will cause an earlier-than-intended meeting. There will be explicit sexual content.

Title says it all

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.

All she wanted was to grow old together, to see their children grow up and have a life, but life had different plans for her. After a monumental tragedy, can Garrus pick up the pieces and rebuild his family as the galaxy burns around them? Third and final work in the After Series.

Garrus' thoughts and feelings regarding Commander John Shepard were easy to understand and explain: He respected and admired the human Spectre and would follow him into hell in a heartbeat. His feelings regarding his crewmate and friend, Lieutenant Jane Shepard, however, weren't as clear cut. She'd taken up residence in his head and wouldn't leave. Parallel AU, Part 1 Complete

Everyone knows Shepard's story, but who were the soldiers who also fought in the Reaper War? This story revolves around five women who have pledged their service to the Alliance together. Time span: starts before ME1, ends after ME 3. In the later chapters encounters with well-known characters!

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.

What's a man to do when he wakes up as a Quarian in Mass Effect? Pull up his bootstraps and backpack his people to victory.

I think we can all agree waking up as a guy in a woman's body would be jarring to say the least. Waking up as an asari? Horrifying. But waking up as what I had the incredible misfortune to be... Let's just say I wouldn't bet on me surviving long enough to see the Reapers make their grand debut. Asari SI, starts just before ME1.

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 Citadel wants their technology and Humanity wants out of Sol, but can a deal be struck? Heavy! focus on FC aspects

The Citadel council learns about the multiverse and just how scary or friendly the new species they’re about to meet can get. (Rated M to be safe due to games such as Halo, Cyberpunk, Dead Space, Dune, and really just anything related like that)

Fate played as much a role in Shepard's defeat of the Reapers as did his skill. What if fate had different plans? Did you know that the Shepard on Mindoir was born as a twin? What if both had survived the raid? How would the Reapers have dealt with TWO great heroes instead of one? It's time to find out just how much better and worse things get with TWO Shepards fighting a war.
