The vid was cheesy; there was no doubt about it. But it was also sort of sweet, Ryder thought. Maybe she just felt that way because she was currently curled up beside the person she loved, and it put her in a sappy mood.

the meeting of certain alien species on the Citadel.

Shepard's past in the Tenth Street Reds. AU. She grew up in a religious and military institute, which scarred her soul but transformed her into a person capable of enduring unbearable psychological traumas. [Future pairing: Femshep x Liara T'Soni]

Joker's the one who has to drop her into hell, over and over. He's her pilot after all, and he'd follow anywhere she asked of him. Ashe Shepard didn't ask for her scars but she'll bear them all just to bring Joker home to safe harbour. Canon-related AU where Joker and Shepard's relationship goes back to the Academy. Slow burn Shoker. Many liberties taken with lore/canon.

The galaxy has been shattered. A malevolent foe has achieved what the Reapers could not do: eradicate all hope. But there are those that still resist, that push back in the face of futile odds. It will now be up to Shepard and Tali's daughter - Roahn - to figure out a way to restore that hope, unite their lost allies, and pursue their enemy to the universe's very edge.

Mass Effect AU. The Systems Alliance never existed, instead the Terran Federation rose from the ashes of the third World War in the 2050s with the aid of AI and cybernetic technology resulting in a 25 year cold war with the Citadel Council after the First Contact War. But as tensions begin to ease the dark shadow of the Reapers looms...

This is a prelude of two parts to an AU where Shepard still is alive in the Alliance by the second game. Eventually, she has to navigate between an ascendant shadowy organisation and the Reapers thus needs to find a way to get the galaxy united for a war against the Reapers. The story has an aro-ace Shepard. No pairings. Mainly post-ME1

On the Citadel, the lights of fame and glory can often end in string lights and tinsel, but rarely does it end in chance encounters. Or so Alice Shepard thought until she crossed paths with Garrus Vakarian. Through metal and moxxie, guts and glory, they must navigate a galaxy hellbent on keeping them apart...and the dark forces looming on the horizon. (Mass Effect AU!)

An original story. Follow Morgan Beckett and his crew as they venture through the galaxy during the events of Mass Effect after a mysterious benefactor offers Beckett the most high risk mission of his career. Watch as this mission takes Beckett parallel to Commander Shepard's hunt for Saren Arterius.

Gemma River. A young girl from the colony of Horizon, her life was just normal with her parents until the Reapers attacked her home. Waking up on the Citadel, confused and alone, can the help from Commander Shepard and her crew find Gemma's parents? And can Gemma be made to realise she's a lot more powerful than she ever knew?

He never believed in ghosts until he met one. Post-ME3

AU where Reapers don't exist. A whole different main enemy to deal with down the line. Vakarian is Spectre and Shep is in hiding. Shep and Garrus meet every night in an Escort/Hostess type of bar. Totally different spin off. I hope it'll work, and I hope you guys will enjoy. Will include a lot of drama, romance, suspense, action and fluff. #shakarian #femshepxgarrus #Femshep

There are many stories where humans develop a new form of technology that does not need element zero, but what if there is another singularity that is unique to humans? How the citadel will react to that?

John Shepard, like most humans, can't die. Blow him up, irradiate him, slice him apart, throw him out into space, he's done it all before. But the race of aliens kidnapping Turian and Batarian colonists from the Verge? That's new. That's something that might actually have to be dealt with. And hey, when you live forever, why not live in the moment?

What if the events of ME2 had happened before ME1? After the disaster of Torfan Shepard spends 5 years in prison. Upon her release she is recruited by Cerberus to investigate the mysterious disappearances of entire human colonies in the Terminus Systems and find the answers to the questions that torment her: Can war criminals ever redeem themselves? Should they even be allowed to?

Le troisième opus des palpitantes aventures galactiques de l'Unité GEIST Numéro 1 (Groupe d'Enquête, Infiltration & Sécurisation Trans'espèce). Notre vaillante petite équipe de super-limiers du Conseil œuvre désormais sous la direction d'un nouvel agent Spectre, une N7 biotique au style souvent... décoiffant! À n'aborder bien sûr qu'après la lecture des deux Saisons précédentes...

Part two of the Beyond the Fire series. At the age of ten Nicole Shepard was raised to be a killer by Cerberus. Years later she'd managed to move on; until they bring her back from the grave. Can Nicole Shepard be the hero the galaxy needs? Or is she the monster she's afraid she's become? DR will retell and modify the events of ME2, with a femShep/Liara romance.

Self insert with a twist. I find myself in ME a decade before ME1. Shepard is not a badass commander yet, Garrus hasn't joined C-Sec. I have to find my own path. Not sure on any pairings yet, the situation shall evolve as I go along. Update and rewrite completed on 31.05.2021

Five years after the reaper war the Normandy is finally found. As the crew prepare to rejoin the galaxy, Shepard waits anxiously for their return. But with so much time having passed can things be the same and how will they live with the decisions they all made in each other's absence

The Alliance and Council must also find a way to restore what's been lost without tearing one another apart in the process. Can they win or is this a war that will finally devour them?
