    Summary

    You wake up in a world you’ve explored a thousand times before- a game you know inside and out. Except now, it’s real. You’re Commander Shepard, an Earthborn hero who tries to keep it together under pressure but can’t help getting a little awkward when flustered. You overthink, over-plan, and want so badly for everything to turn out right, even when the galaxy seems determined to fall apart. Your moral compass? A messy mix of Paragon ideals and Renegade pragmatism- whatever it takes to make it through.

    This story rewrites the possibilities: What if major character deaths could be avoided? What if fan-favorite mods for the Legendary Edition were brought to life in a way that feels just as personal? It’s not just about saving the galaxy; it’s about navigating the relationships that make the journey worth it. Shepard will explore multiple relationships, but it all builds toward a long, slow-burn romance with Garrus.

    Summary

    I was harshly ripped from my life and catapulted into another.

    For one hundred and something years, I've been a human popsicle, perfectly preserved and warped through time and space. To make matters even more insane, everything around me resembled a fictional universe.

    I knew what was coming, and wanted to run screaming, but there was nowhere to go.

    -

    In which a normal woman wakes up in a fictional universe, and tries to live day by day. Slice of life at first, will eventually go into bigger drama. Self-indulgent. Might put rating up later.

    (UNEXPECTED REMAKE/REBOOT)

    (this is something I'm working on the side when I'm bored)

    Summary

    Anastasia Shepherd was born on Earth, raised in a crime syndicate. Biotic at birth, but wasn't able to get an implant - had to learn quickly to get her powers under control.
    Escaping the syndicate was difficult and had earned her a few scars, both physical and mental. Luckily, Alliance Marine, David Anderson, was there to take her under his wing. She enlisted at 18, got fitted with an L3 implant and quickly rose the ranks.

    In 2183, Commander Shepherd is assigned as the executive officer of the brand new frigate, the Normandy. A marvel prototype stealth ship of both Human and Turian design. Under Alliance command, the Normandy is sent on a shakedown run at the Human colony, Eden Prime.

    What could go wrong?

    Not sure how to summarise this but... this work is pretty much my novelisation of my Mass Effect playthrough, along with what I wanted to exist in the game, some of the cut content etc.

    Summary

    Lt. Commander Shepard, the White Death of Elysium and borderline pariah, is named commander of the Fifth Fleet's newest frigate, the SSV Normandy. Her task? The sort of thankless, redaction-heavy missions N7s train for, on call to do cleanup whenever and wherever Admiral Hackett says go. Along the way she forms an unlikely band of misfits into a highly effective army, and discovers just how thin and flimsy the galaxy's veneers of normalcy truly are.

    Summary

    For 39 years, the Human Sphere has coexisted with and gradually worked its way into the halls of power within the alien Citadel. Though not so unified as many of their fellow galactic civilizations, humanity stands strong regardless, and few among it stronger than the O-12 Council's own Commander Jonathan Shepard, the Lion of Paradiso. As humanity reaches higher and higher for power, it falls upon Shepard to stand as the first human Spectre, an elite agent of the Citadel. But not all is well; forces move in the shadows, scheming and plotting against the same order and peace which Shepard must now protect.

    "Unity. Cooperation. Support. Progress. These are the Pillars of Virtue, the foundation of O-12. I've lived my life to preserve them; I'll gladly give it to see them standing strong." - Commander Jonathan Shepard, addressing the Batarian pirates assailing Paradiso.

    Summary

    A rewrite of my fic On the Horizon. I read through it and decided "I can write this better".

    Anastasia Shepard grew up an orphan on the streets and ended up joining the Alliance on her 18th birthday. During her time on the streets, she discovered that finding honest people was like finding a needle in a haystack, and she was hopeful that wasn't going to be the case in joining the Alliance. To her surprise, she found someone she was able to connect with on a whole different level, and found someone who she could call a brother.
    Ana ended up rising through the ranks quickly and resulted in her leading the unit on Akuze, and her "brother" had helped her through the grief. He helped ensure she would continue to be a strong soldier. To her surprise, they end up serving with each other aboard the Normandy.
    However, when she awakens on the Normandy after coming in contact with the Prothean Beacon on Eden Prime, the person she usually turned to help with her grief isn't there. Everyone says that the loss of Corporal Richard Jenkins is tough on the crew - but little do they know it's tougher on her.
    But she refuses to let on. She knows, for his sake, she has to stay strong.

    Summary

    Shepard had never been anything but a street rat, not until The Alliance got in the way. She never expected to love the sense of duty that came with her forced tours, never expected it to be her new drug. She's fought her way up the ranks, fought for every promotion she's earned with sweat, blood and tears and now it's finally paid off.

    Now Shepard is hit with life changing decisions that are forced on her after every corner, not all bad but definitely not all good. Can Shepard handle the weight that’s being pushed down on her? Can she save the galaxy from an agent once sworn to protect it?
    (ME1 novelisation, will be completed as 3 different books throughout a series, hopefully. Updates every month)

    Summary

    Named after the song Close to You by Gracie Abrams
    My fiancé convinced me to pick up Mass Effect - his favourite game and now one of mine too. I instantly fell in love with Kaidan, both as a character and as a romantic interest for FemShep. This fic wiggled it's way into my head shortly after completing the trilogy and I haven't been able to shift it!
    Amelia Cooper stars as the Normandy's on board chef, a well-educated Earthborn who has joined the Alliance following the death of her father at the hands of Batarian raiders. Upon meeting Lieutenant Alenko, she resides herself to the fact that she cannot compare with Commander Shepard, despite the feelings that start to surface.
    This fic will follow the main story events of Mass Effect 1 but there may be some added bits and pieces here and there. There may also be some additional non-canon content.
    Disclaimer: For the purpose of this fic, the layout of the crew deck on the Normandy is more like the SR2 than the SR1, allowing for a kitchen area and a separate room for the main character to sleep in.

    Summary

    She's the Alliance's most famous soldier - forced into early retirement to be the 'token human' in enemy territory in a desperate bid to maintain intergalactic peace.

    Summary

    *Explicit rating reasons beginning at Ch 11* Nihlus Kryik is supposed to die on Eden Prime. Almost all of the parallels in the universe dictate and demand his death. Subsequently, in all of these parallels, Shepard does not or cannot witness his murder. But what happens when Shepard accidentally stumbles upon a twisted scene of betrayal and locks eyes with the victim? A new, broken parallel emerges, throwing Shepard into a circular chaos where she must continue to protect Nihlus's now fragile life. If he dies, they start over. But how does the cycle end?

    Summary

    When most people hear the name “Shepard” they tend to think of either the brave soldier who won the day at Elysium or the war-torn biotic who escaped catastrophe by the skin of his teeth, but rarely ever does the name sound bigger than just one soldier. In the year 2183 however, that’s going to change in a way that no one in the galaxy could dare to expect…
