On a war-torn, backwater colony world, a Cerberus operative and a turian Cabalist are forced to work together to blow the lid on an intricate web of conspiracy that may have far-reaching implications for both of their peoples.

The Citadel News Network provides only the best reports on events across the galaxy, from the gleaming cities of Thessia, to the darkest corners of the Terminus Systems, to the presidium of the Citadel itself; we are there, and we bring the stories to you every day.

The Reaper War may have ended twenty-five years ago but the scars that it has left behind on the galaxy still run deep and red. Aboard the SSV Hippocrates, flagship of the Systems Alliance Research and Development, three Spectres find themselves up against a new horror. Come bear witness to a humble bromance, badly-timed flashbacks, and the re-imagined fates of old friends.

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?

Commander Jane Shepard needs to get a team together to save the galaxy from the reapers where she meets Garrus Vakarian. She slowly gets her heart taken by him but there's also Kaidan. She tries to figure out her conflicted feelings while trying to stop the reapers. At the same time, Garrus uses Jane as a way to stop Saren but finds himself falling victim to her charms.

This is a telling of Mass Effect from the PoV of my OC. Vex, a hitman from Omega, finds herself swept up in a life-threatening adventure when she meets up with an old friend.

AU. First Contact War. Garrus Vakarian, the Hierarchy's brightest, is tasked with capturing the crew of an Alliance vessel that has crash-landed on some spiritforsaken planet in the Terminus Systems. What can go wrong? Garrus/femShepard. The story explores a galaxy of what-ifs where Shepard is no soldier, yet Vakarian is the Archangel to the bone.

A single spark, a single event, can change the lives of many and shape civilizations. From a silent Relay far from everything, to worlds only freshly known, to a grand space station that has served as the time to a million peoples across a million lifetimes, one such event was the First Contact War. [Version Two]

Rediscover the world of Mass Effect through the eyes of "Commander" Gorman, as he finds himself many light years and regular years away from home. His mind is shattered by horrific visions and the odds are against him – but determination and luck will see him assemble a ragtag crew and take the fight to this strange new galaxy. This week: Citadel or Bust!

Humans are a bunch of overly paranoid war apes. What happens when you give these war loving apes th keys to the universe? They cause mayhem. This is my take on a more realistic progress path for Humanity, specifically based on modern prediction models. Reviews and criticisms are welcome.

What if the Prothean hid asari on planet Earth as one of their many plans, what would happen if asari and humans lived side by side for thousands of years before space travel started? This is that story. image taken from

Do you remember the piano scene from the Citadel? Yeah, neither do I!

What if Shepard had genes stolen for a large cloning program? What if the Asari had a secret that they wanted to keep hidden from the galaxy? This is what Shepard and Liara have to deal with. How many bad sides can they get on?

An Asari exploration vessel, reactivated a new Mass Relay coordinates to an unexplored part at the edge of Council space. The coordinates led them away from the renowned Attican Traverse into foreign territory. Little did they know, the Relay would bring them right into the heart of a fledgling star-faring civilization… wait, a fledgling civilization?

My AU retelling of the events in ME2, with a completely new take on Cerberus, the Shadow Broker, and the Collectors. Examines the themes of what exactly constitutes death and life, the line between revenge and self-hatred, and how small amounts of light can shine in every darkness. Not a happy ending. Includes my takes on Overlord and LotSB. Rated M for language and violence.

Shepard and Liara are stuck in a diplomatic meeting. Shepard decides to make things interesting.

AU - Captain John Shepard survived the slums of earth while also protecting and taking care of his little Sister Jane Shepard, He made a promise to her that he would always protect her, he failed once. He will not fail again.

The year is 2251, the 35th anniversary of the Corporate Insurrection, but there is no time to mourn. Right behind one of the relays that humanity intends to open, lays an entire galaxy of alien societies and species that they have yet to uncover, and not all of them are friendly. My take on human civilization in the space age meets Mass Effect, essentially.

Thanks to help from the SAM, Sara found a perfect spot for romantic date in the Meridian. Sara was ready to enjoy the date.

Millions are being shipped to extermination camps across Europe, the Allied bombing raids are growing more fierce, the 6th Army in Stalingrad is on the verge of collapse and the Anglo-American invasion of Algeria will soon become a reality. The insanity that is the Third Reich is beginning to show... Drastic action must be taken soon.

I've been writing a lot of one shots and I have so many more in my head. So this will serve as a spot for them all. They won't be in order and they won't all be Shep/Liara based (although that's my muse so that's where the writing will be focused). First one is pretty smutty, and I hope y'all enjoy. I'll update as the urge strikes. I really do appreciate feedback!

Millions adrift in the open sea of space, millions more stranded on strange worlds. Once united in their fight, new crises face each surviving race of the Milky Way. As the Alliance races to restore mass relays and galactic order in the chaotic aftermath of the Reaper war, the Normandy and its crew are left to find their own way home. Will fate be satisfied, or is another calamity

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...

I think we can all agree waking up as a guy in a woman's body would be jarring to say the least. Waking up as an asari? Horrifying. But waking up as what I had the incredible misfortune to be... Let's just say I wouldn't bet on me surviving long enough to see the Reapers make their grand debut. Asari SI, starts just before ME1.

Being an engineer is hard work. Harder, if anyone actually figures out what you have going on in your head. Worse, if the Past and Present live on in a viper nests of idealism, consequences and legacy. But all that's small change when it comes to navigating a galaxy that is oblivious to its own history, living on borrowed time and in denial of its present. -Pre ME2 foundation.-
