One year after the events of Interceptor, Arlen Kryik is a prolific but burnt-out C-Sec agent on the trail of a sadistic criminal gang leader. As his path crosses that of the Joint Security Task Force, who are themselves dealing with a major terrorist threat to the Citadel, Arlen faces a race against time not only to save lives but to avoid falling prey to his own personal demons.

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].

Join the Andromeda Initiative, Work for the great Alec Ryder, Make the first Human Pathfinder's Team, Settle Humanities new Home World, and hopefully get a promotion. These were all on Lieutenant Cora Harper's to-do list. Falling in love with The Pathfinder was never part of the plan. Then again, neither was his Son.

La guerra è finita! Shepard è sepolta viva, viene recuperata in uno strano stato di incoscienza. Dovrà intraprendere un lungo viaggio, ripercorrendo i suoi ultimi quattro anni attraverso i ricordi di Liara, a volte meravigliosi altre volte terribili. Il suo amore, il loro legame invincibile, sarà l'unica cosa capace di tenerla aggrappata a quella promessa ... "Io, ritorno sempre"!

As humanity and other Council races develop along the path set by the Reapers, a different civilization is born. Developing alongside but separately from other species, isolated from the wider galaxy. An Empire with its own FTL technology, independent of Mass Relays. What will happen if a civilization so different from others in almost every way, joins the Galactic community?

An AU where Humanity discovers a crystalline supermaterial that stores insane amounts of energy and their technology radically diverges as a result. By the time the Citadel Races encounter them, humans are a much scarier proposition than in canon. Though not to the point of being completely OP. Sae Shepard, a Special forces Siren, is going to have one hell of an impact on history!

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)

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"!

After the abrupt end to the Reaper threat, the Normandy's crew is a hundred days from home. With the help of Diana Allers' camera drone, they decide to record their thoughts and memories to help a recovering Commander Shepard through her own aftermath. What will the galaxy be like when the Normandy makes it back to the local cluster? Join them on the journey.

Cora expected many things when she came to Andromeda- hostile aliens, banditry, lethal storms while exploring worlds for settlement, and . She had prepared, though, She had readied herself for all of it...except for developing an attraction to Scott Ryder. The Pathfinder himself ! Lexi, fortunately, is available to help her out.

Five times James Vega got set up on a date ... and one time he didn't.

When confronted with evidence of bribery, asari CEO Benezia T'Soni makes a decision that will irreversibly alter the course of her life. To protect her family's reputation, she offers her body to a devious, lustful human Spectre.

The 26th Century Dawns over a united humanity as it expands across the Attican traverse. A First Contact novelization of an alternate humanity. Worthy of being called a Galactic Power. Glory to those who look forward! Glory to those who push forward!

My complete breakdown of various weapon systems in Mass Effect based on known lore with additions added by me to fill in the gaps.

The galaxy turns innocently in the void, the Cycle making endless beginnings and bloody ends. The perfect solution has held a tenuous balance for millions of years. Not everyone goes easily into oblivion. Life strives to overcome, sowing forward seeds and hope of success. How would you cope? How long would you fight? What would you be fighting for? Take my hand, it is dark ahead.

For generations, countless souls were looking in bright stars wanting to find better life for themselves. They all believed that universe will accept them with open hands. Truth unfortunately, can make even the brighter of star looks dim.

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...

Originally titled A Quarian's Liberation. Tali'Zorah has been indoctrinated by the Reapers.

My interpretation of the post First Contact war Alliance ships, including all known lore and a lot that I invented to flesh it out.

My interpretation of the First Contact War Era Alliance Fleet. This compiles all known lore as well as a lot of fictional lore that I made up to fill in the gaps.

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. Maybe this can be my redemption.Updates every Saturday

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
