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

Orphaned & vulnerable children begin to vanish from the streets of Earth. With no one to report them missing, their disappearances go largely unnoticed. Newly minted N7, Lt. Commander James Vega, commands a new crew aboard the Normandy. Their mission leads to an encounter with shrewd criminals on the Alliance colony of Terra Nova, where they discover a connection to the missing.

Garrus is betrayed. Ten men are dead on Omega. The gangs are already rebounding. Archangel is an unmitigated failure. After everything, there's no reason Garrus should be alive, but sometimes, people get what they don't deserve. "Just like old times," Garrus says, but it's not. It never will be again. An ME2 novelization. M for violence. Feat. Beth Shepard from The Disaster Zone.

After stopping the coup attempt on the Citadel, Kaidan re-joins the crew on Normandy, with a lot of questions for Commander Kacey Shepard about her time with Cerberus. It's about time he got an explanation! A causal retelling of Mass Effect 2 and a slight AU for Mass Effect 3. KaidanXFemShepard

What happens if commander Chloe Shepard falls in love with THREE cute girls? The story will follow all three games with my own twists and turns. The true changes start in the second game. I plan to concentrate on the relationships between the crew instead of the missions (we all know them anyway).

"Biotics…is about controlling something that doesn't want to be." In her new role as executive officer to Captain David "Big Paw" Anderson of the Normandy, Systems Alliance's first Turian-Human collaboration militarily, Braithlyn Anne Shepard comes to terms with the darkness of her past…and must do so with her crew learning the terrible path of Sunset Red. This is a non-canon AU.

Unwilling to give up their reliance on artificial intelligence, humans decline the offer to join the Citadel after the First Contact War. However many in the Systems Alliance recognize where that leaves humanity compared to the other races - far behind the curve. As humans scheme to catch up, the Council finds itself wary of its new neighbors. (Some Halo thrown in)

After three years of warnings and denials, the galaxy is now faced with a threat they never believed they would face: galactic genocide by centuries old, sentient machines known aptly as the Reapers. The fate of the galaxy now rests on the shoulders of Commander Kacey Shepard, a talented Commander who's career is built on performing the impossible. Retelling of ME3.

Space, the last frontier between humanity and sky, we broke that frontier and now we face a galaxy completely unknown to us, with its secrets and horrors waiting to be discover. The council of the citadel and all his beings under its banner will face the horrors that this galaxy presents and the gods who awoke from their sleep. Where death is the sleep of the gods. (H.P Lovecraft)

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.

Braithlyn Anne Shepard is Sunset Red. This is the story of her beginnings, intertwined with her life in various stages of her development from a small precocious child through the kidnapping from BAaT to her reunion with "Big Paw" Anderson…A non-canon, alternate u. with a twist on all her meetings with friends, enemies, and loves.

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.

"Our tribute is a lovely statue of your old friend Saren." Old friend. That was one way to put it.

16 years after the Reaper Wars the galaxy as changed. Someone who has changed as well is everyone favorite Quarian Engineer Tali'Zorah. The Widow of Commander Shepard who died during the war, she now finds herself lonesome and seeks to help with that lonely by posting a few videos on the Extranet. Come and watch her adventure and see how it all ends for the Quarian.

Shepard joins Tali in the bathroom during the party. (Citadel Party AU, Shepard/Tali with background Garrus/Shepard)

The Systems Alliance launches multiple programs as an effort to mend humanity's image to the galactic community as a whole, as well as expose the marines to other species to facilitate proactive collaboration. Ensign Shepard signs up for research patrol duty as her first assignment. [Slight AU: Jane and Liara meet 10 years earlier than the events of ME1. Co-author: HappyMistake].

"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...

The Citadel Council and the Turian Hierarchy has been at war for a good half of a century. Eager to break the stalemate, The Hierarchy seeks out a new ally in a rising Systems Alliance, bringing the war back to full speed. The Alliance now goes through it's trial by fire, as it emerges from obscurity into the galactic stage. (AU no Krogan Rebellions/First Contact Wars)

In a quiet hospital in Europe, months after the end of the Reaper War, there is a patient. He cannot wake, cannot dream. Every day, a quarian watches over him. Protecting him. Loving him. And hating every moment without him.

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. (Takes place in a reimagined Mass Effect universe)

What if humanity was diplomatically isolated from the Citadel races, left to fend for itself against the Batarians and other threats? This is an AU story of a humanity forced to struggle and fight for its place in the stars, with many points of divergence and some pretty significant changes made to the background lore. Contains violence and some mature themes.

Originally titled A Quarian's Liberation. Tali'Zorah has been indoctrinated by the Reapers. After a failed assassination attempt against her boyfriend, a distraught Shepard and the crew of the Normandy are left to pick up the pieces and figure out how to bring her back. But how are they do to that, and if they succeed, how will Tali come to grips with what she has done?

The continuation of Mass energy

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 3 in progress.

Samantha was led to believe the deal included a couple of children, but Shepard is dilly-dallying. There's only so many years one can wait for something to happen before getting ready to give up, and Shepard must find closure regarding her own childhood before she can start her own family.
