Summary
Commander Jane Shepard, Saviour of the Citadel, First human Spectre and Captain of the once Normandy SR1, now newly built SR2 had the job of figuring out why so many human colonists in the Terminus Systems are disappearing.
The team she needs to build for this suicide mission had a varied amount of members, but the Drell Assassin stands out from them all, is it his talent of breaking one's neck so easily? Or is it because Shepards finds herself falling for him?

Summary
Elizabeth Shepard, the Earthborn, mostly-Paragon, biotic, misfit heroine of The Null Room and The Passage finally returns to Headquarters (from her gangland tour of the North American continent) just in time to say hello to the Reaper Invasion.
Disclaimer the First: Shepard's and Vega's relationship likely won't make sense if you haven't read the previous stories.
Disclaimer the Second: this story is LONG, in part, because it contains a great deal of dialogue pulled directly from the video game, with minuscule tweaks and mental commentary. we're trying to stay as (modded) canon as possible.
Disclaimer the Third: there's an entire recorded playthrough on Youtube that runs in tandem with the story, including edits to construct scenes that don't strictly exist in the game (but, I argue, could). links in every chapter.
Disclaimer the Fourth: Chapter count subject to change. Contains adult language. Void where prohibited. Please avoid operating large machinery while reading this fic.

Summary
In 2170 Mindoir was raided by batarian slavers, killing or enslaving the entire colony. It was thought that the first human spectre, Commander Shepard, was the sole survivor of the brutal attack. But when evidence that his sister is alive comes to light, his world is turned upside down.
Yet, survival comes at a cost. After all, heroes aren't born from happiness. And this tale delves into a dark, brutal world as we come to know the siblings who had the courage to endure and stand against the tide.
A story of resiliency, determination, and hope in a galaxy of disrepair. This fic will follow our young heroes through the conclusion of the Reaper War. Yet, this is not a simple retelling of the trilogy. The entire war will be rewritten in order to give our galactic villains, the reapers, the respect they deserve.
* Any chapter(s) with graphic, sexual violence will be prefaced with a warning, and easily skippable. While abuse is never portrayed in a positive light, it is present. And even though I devolve into humor, banter, and what I hope to be heart-warming moments, there are psychological aspects and scenes throughout that some may find uncomfortable.

Garrus takes a rocket to the side of his face
Her vision tunnels and all she can see, all she can focus on, is the gunship, on her need to get rid of it, to kill Tarak, the idiot batarian sitting behind the controls. Her body streaks like a shooting star, fast and bright, turning to pure biotic energy, solidifying on the other end, one fist smashing straight through the shields and glass of the gunship, fingers stopping just short of Tarak’s chest.

The image of Garrus is much more raw.)genesis shepard, her relationships, and the evolution of her biotics.

Summary
Blessed by the gods, Shepard is tasked with hunting down those responsible for the violence done to her. The offense done to the gods when she was ripped across time, brought back from death, cannot go unanswered by the Siha.
This draws on a bunch of things from the first, so read that first and is the second in the series (of three). This will go through the events of Arrival and the first half or so of Mass Effect 3, though there will be more substantial shifts from canon, it will still have the same main missions, etc. Thane lives. Another bit of a slow burn after Shepard gets taken into custody and brought back to Earth.
Updates every few days, sometimes more frequently, with a chapter or two.
Any explicit chapters will be noted here: 4, 20, 21, 29Series

Summary
The threat of the Reapers has been held at bay with the defeat of Saren and Sovereign. The Citadel Council has been saved, albeit at the expense of many Alliance lives. With the Normandy in dock for repairs and shore leave ordered for the whole crew, Kaidan invites Allison Shepard to join him on his planned shore leave to Casablanca and Vancouver.
What starts off as fun and responsibility-free time together begins to unwind as the dreams Allison has been having since Eden Prime resurface with more frightening visuals. And when news of Terra Nova under threat from batarian terrorists filters through, Kaidan begins to see a side of Allison he'd never suspected would exist.

Summary
Ryder wakes to find her father is dead and he named her Pathfinder. She must navigate a strange, new galaxy whilst undertaking a task she had no preparation for. No big deal. It's not like she's got entire species expecting her to find them new worlds, delivering on the "Golden Worlds" promise that the Initiative sold them. And it's also not like she's got new aliens to deal with and Kett to kill. She can totally manage. No problem, whatsoever.
A retelling of Mass Effect: Andromeda with heavy focus on the Jaal/Ryder romance.

Summary
“Th–that is quite the literal translation,” Shepard managed, and wiped tears of laughter out of the corner of her eyes. “Malaka!”
Alenko’s omni-tool blipped once more. “Man who rubs –“
“Could you please stop reading the translation logs out loud, Chief?”
Her grin, present for a while already, widened further. “Is this an order, Sir?”With Saren having fooled the Council, it is now up to Team Milky Way to find proof of his guilt for Eden Prime. A direct follow up to "3 AM" and a quite different "missing scene" novelization of the events on the Citadel up to Shepard becoming a Spectre, under a heavy Shenko lense. ME1. Two-shot. Rated M because of Nora's very liberal application of swear-words and f-bombs xD

And as various crew members begin acting strangely, Shepard wonders if everything was what it seemed with the Prothean artifact. Are the Protheans conducting an experiment from beyond the grave?
