10 years after the end of the saga, the galaxy enters a new era. Thanks to the sacrifice of the Commander Shepard, the Reapers have been pacified and with the Synthesis, organic and synthetic lives have now more in common. The Reapers became the Wardens, helping the worlds rebuild from the war, acting as pacifiers and patrollers of the galaxy, from internal and external threats. But it does not mean peace will last. New tensions arise and old grudges resurface. The Wardens, understanding their own limits, decided to call back a beacon, a herald recognized by everyone: Commander Shepard. Rebuilding him with a new organic and synthetic body while using cerberus technology to reimplant his memories, the commander is back, with a new ship: the AWF Vigilance. And now ? He needs to get his team, or rather a new team: the Ash Wardens. And you have been selected as a part of it.

Try to build up with Shepard a team for new adventures:

• Choose which Shepard you want (gender, combat skills, paragon or renegade)

• Choose your species, abilities, backstory (and yes if you want you can be a hanar, vorcha or elcor. Have fun :) )

• Try to get back to some old team members (you can pretty much influence Shepard to go see specifically some of them)

• Recruit new ones, quite colorful (again you can influence Shepard in the choice)

• Act as a spacecop in this new era, while dealing with Shepard's identity crisis and the mess of old & new threats

Key characters that survived (pretty much all of them):

• Humans : Ashley Williams, Kaidan Alenko, Jeff Joker Moreau, Jack, Jacob Taylor, Miranda Lawson, Zaeed Massani, James Vega, David Anderson

• Asaris: Liara T'Soni, Samra, Morinth, Aria T'Loak

• Quarian: Tali'Zorah vas Normandy

• Krogan: Urdnot Wrex, Grunt

• Turian: Garrus Vakarian, Nyreen Kandros

• Synthetic: Legion (Geth), EDI (AI)

• Salarian: Mordin Solus

• Drell: Thane Krios

• Prothean: Javik

New recruits:

• Lyra'Nira (Asari)

• Jason Mercer (Male Human)

• Shael (Female Drell)

• Anin Tarixe (Female Salarian)

• Kaeleen Vex (Female Turian)

• Thax (Female Krogan)

• Daro’Xen vas Moreh (Male Quarian)

• Rasha (Female Batarian)

• Unit-734 "Echo" (Geth)

Notes:

• In this context, all companions survived, so the story is a bit different from the normal saga

• Key events of the past: Geth and Quarian peace, Krogan remedy to Genophage with influence of Eve, Reapers pacified into Wardens and Synthesis happened.

• As the Synthesis happened, species have changed a bit in terms of biology and appearance. Please do take that into account, or you can ask the bot for specificities.

• A lorebook is connected to this bot, all key information are in there so don't hesitate to check it out !

• For the best use of the bot, it is better to say at some point who you want in your main team. Other characters will be on standby or in their "normal" role outside of the Ash Wardens team. Recommandation is max 3 old characters and 3 new characters in your team (outside of Shepard).

• Romance is possible (of course, it's Mass Effect), you'll just have to hint the bot to which character you want to romance. They are all single by default, even Shepard (so do enjoy it).

• If you want some key old characters added, please feel free to ask, i'll see how i can include them.

• And yes i know, i did a little nod to the Grey Wardens from Dragon Age franchise, i could not help it :).

In honor of the fallen....
