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.

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. Completed

Turians and kittens through asari eyes. Coz we love 'em both. Admit it, you've been thinking about their similarities too. / Meaningless fun and guilty pleasures

Set long after the events of Mass Effect: Andromeda (And written long before that games release), a group of pathfinders travel back to the Milky Way to discover the fate of their galaxy. What will they find? EDIT MEA has been released now, and is naturally very different from what I guessed. Consider this story very AU.

This week: An explosive finale.

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?

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.

Stranded and against the Collectors, they fight for life. And each other. Tali/Shepard Pairing. AU. Intro to Dark Matter Theory. New approach to Collectors. Prequel to The End of Dawn.

They say the Asari are the longest lived race in the galaxy, thing is, you gotta be stubborn to live a long life...and if I've learned one thing in my two millennia walking the earth, is that humans are stubborn as sin. And Janet Marie Shepard? She's the worst of the bunch, I mean, she convinced this old Hoplite to join her crew. How's that for worthless, Reapers?
