My main ME AU Mass Effect story of Thane Krios and Commander Shepard. Will have canon missions, but not a canon story. Starts with Shepard's life on Earth, extends past ME3. This story relates to my Andromeda story. Warning of rainbows and butterflies and NSFW content. Rated M. I'm not a professional writer or editor.

This story is different from my others because of the lack of mythology. It begins when she is five years old and ends up a duct rat in the underbelly of the Citadel's Wards - and will continue past ME3. It will have all the main characters and some of my own. Remember, I'm not an editor, there will be typos. The story is for mature readers only.

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.
