In 1958, NATO and the Warsaw Pact come into contact with a hostile UFO. It seemed to defy the laws of physics with the way it moved and the way it's mass seemed to almost...fluctuate. In a joint effort, the two powers defeated the aliens, but only just. Now, the aliens have returned, and only one organization has any hope of stopping them: the Xenonauts.

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

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.

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)

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?

FemShep's investigation of Cerberus' nefarious activities, while she struggles with questions about her own identity. This story is not super canon-y, but it fits with the story, especially if you aren't too personally attached to your version of the characters. It aims to fill in the gaps and is told from Ash's POV. Rated T for blood-curdling swears. FemShep/Ashley (slowest burn).

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.

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, Complete.

A short story in six chapters. About feeling alien and reconecting with old friends, narrated through the visor of Tali'Zorah.

I was chosen because I had thought it through and because I knew what pain and suffering was. Now I have the chance to see if my ideas can help Shepard save the galaxy. SI.

The year is 2182 and on the edge of Human controlled space, a precious cargo was stolen by a Batarian Slave team. The unknown cargo had been taken deeper into Batarian space and was thought to contain a weapon. Upon opening the container, the Batarians were left with more questions than answers. This was no weapon. (New update, 4/27)

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.

Humanity, despite its valient efforts, was going to lose against the Reapers, it was obvious. So they hid her, their sole ace in the hole. Garrus Vakarian has managed to stop Saren, albeit barely, and has drawn the eyes of the Collectors. Through chance, or fate, both eras will fight. Together, or eachother. Pre-Prothean humanity, M for cursing, violence and maybe sexual themes.

I wake up as the Hostile AI that Shepard found on the Citadel in Mass Effect 1. AI Self Insert

Our story takes place after Humanity narrowly avoids destroying itself and despite all odds manages to learn from its mistakes. Being a better, kinder species when they encounter another race in need they pull out all the stops to lend assistance.

Sequel to my Mine Effect story, Shepards back and about to kick some Collector ass

"Which year is it?" "Twenty one... eightish?" She wakes up alone on a ship she doesn't know. She doesn't have a clue about how she got there. She doesn't even remember her own name. Does she have a chance of discovering her past among the chaos after the greatest galactic war in history? And why are all those people trying to get her?

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.

The System Alliance is introduced to the galaxy with good old-fashioned violence, good for us that we humans are so proficient with it. HFY

Shepard ties the knot
