There are time jumps—these will be listed behind the date posted at the beginning of each chapter. The first mention of Xiùlán and Sammy's dealings with Joesiar happens on Monday, 15 August 2225-CE, in chapter 36, A Special Celebration, of Transformation, Part IV, RotSB

The Asari matriarch Samara and the Human commander Jane Shepard meet up once more in a familiar and private place. Once there, they would be able to open up to one another, embracing each other as eternity itself would embrace the two lovers as one...

Commander Shepard: the 'Lion of Elysium', the 'Survivor of Akuze', and the 'Butcher of Torfan'. Humanities first Spectre. A galactic threat looms in the background as Shepard is forced to confront his past, to fight the future. General development of characters throughout; darker and grittier undertone. Slightly AU version of ME1's events.

Jared’s life changes when alien forces invade, transforming humans into entertainment by trapping them in their mind-made microverses. Suddenly, he’s navigating a reality of his own creation, battling for survival with a single aim: to find his way home.

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.

A civilian finds a badly wounded soldier, who turns out to be Commander John Shepard. A intense adventure awaits both, Sophia Miller is telling her story.

Dani Pryde is a genius, a polymath and a helpless clutch when it comes to social interactions. Trauma and insecurity holds her back but Anderson figures even an oddball like her can fit it on the Normandy. Dani learns about who she is, grows to be her own person and even learns a thing or two about a little thing called love. The newer, BETTER version!

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.

Aila never wanted to be stuck on an Alliance ship, but as a top medic, she has little choice. When she saves a wounded turian Spectre, Tylus, everything changes. Tasked with stopping rogue turians, he never expected to owe a human his life. Forced together, they uncover a deadly Alliance secret. Hunted by both sides, duty blurs into something far more dangerous.

(This is a story inspired by the fan fiction Sovereingty of PoofyOhio) What happens when a broken reaper and a coward geek glitch are reunited ? Well, it turns out much can happen that can affect not only the reaper but the entire mass effect galaxy

Mordin wanted to be left alone while working. That shouldn't have been a big deal to Shepard. Right?

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?

Post ME3. Garrus mourns Shepard remembering her last words, stucked in a grief loop.

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

Character/relationship driven, dark and edgy retelling of the Mass Effect trilogy. Original characters and pairings, political intrigue, original storylines and completely different ending to the final confrontation with the Reapers. Storyline that take some chars to Andromeda. Dark themes, sexual content and violence as our lovers fight to save the Galaxy one last time.

John Shepard works in C-Sec with Garrus, but he also has a sister, Commander Jane Shepard. Garrus never even knew John had a sister. How will things change when they both join her in her fight against Saren? Starts in ME1 with plans to continue beyond. Strong base around Shepard (F) x Garrus, but will also include Shepard (M) x Tali. (As of Feb 2025, now updating every Friday)

Destroying the Reapers was the most difficult task the galaxy had ever faced. Picking up the pieces might prove to be harder. Kaidan/FemShep

"Director's Cut" of the ME epic, fleshing out who our heroes are and how they got that way. Slowly veering off to an AU: The Savior of Elysium IS the Butcher of Torfan, medevac Jenkins, Liara returns to Ilos to reboot Vigil, Shepard rescues Kenson w/ Thane & Kasumi, Aria gets executed, Legion knows TIM is indoctrinated, the Collectors have directed TIM to scuttle Normandy...

With friends and family at her side, Dr Liara T'Soni travels the galaxy, digging up the long-lost trail of the Protheans. Setting aside her life as an active Spectre, Shepard settles into domestic life (of sorts) to accompany Liara on her journey. Finally, a life full of peace, love and happiness becomes reality… and the long-awaited little blues get to make their appearance.

The Crucible has been fired. The crew of the Normandy, having crash landed on an uncharted world, scramble to repair their ship and reestablish communication with the Alliance Fleet. Uncertainty weighs heavily on the crew, especially its quarian engineer, who wonders if she will ever see her home, or the man she loved, ever again.

In a world ruled by technology, an idiot with magic wants to change things before they died. The question is... Where to start? Psdt: Yeah, is a selfinsert. Helps me escape from reality

Takes place during Lair of the Shadow Broker in the scene after Vasir's death. Fleshes out what each Liara and Theodora Shepard are feeling in those moments. ONE SHOT

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.

When the fading Protheans hidden away on Ilos awoke from their slumber, they found extinction waiting for them. All but twelve lost to their sleep. And so a species was chosen to avenge. To remain hidden, freed from the chains of the Relays until the time came. And so the Twelve uplifted the ones who called themselves Humans. And the Invisible Empire was born. WIP/slow updates.

You wake up in a hospital. The doctors believe you are a famous soldier. They insist you are the famous soldier. You are not. Part 1 of the series After Death, Life Again. Inspired by Mary Shelley's Frankenstein, Poems by Wilfred Owen, and YouTuber Paragon7's theory that ME5 will bring Shepard back via Angara reincarnation.
