Mass Effect: Male Shepard and Tevos Fanfiction - How Do Writers Portray Their Characters?

One popular storyline could be about Male Shepard and Tevos working together on a crucial mission to save a planet. They start off as colleagues with different outlooks but gradually develop a mutual respect. Another could be a story set in a post - war scenario where they have to rebuild relations between their species. There might also be a story where Male Shepard gets lost in Tevos' homeworld and she has to guide him, during which they learn more about each other's cultures.

Obviously, Tevos is a main character. She's a significant figure in the Asari government. And then there are the OCs (original characters). These can be a wide variety of beings. It could be a human soldier who gets involved in Asari politics because of some incident related to Tevos. Or an alien scientist who teams up with Tevos to study an ancient Prothean relic. Each OC brings their own backstory, skills, and motives to the story.

In many fanfictions, Shepard is shown as a more somber and reflective character. Having led the fight against the Reapers, Shepard has seen so much death and destruction that it changes them. They might be more hesitant in some decisions, unlike their usually decisive self during the war.

Shepard and Tali's relationship in fanfiction can also take a more romantic turn. Writers might describe their growing feelings for each other, starting from their initial meetings and gradually developing into a deep love. This could involve tender moments between them, like sharing a quiet moment on the Normandy while looking out at the stars, and how they overcome the differences in their species and cultures to be together.

There's a fanfic called 'Tevos and the Human Alliance'. It focuses on a unique plot where a human, through unexpected circumstances, becomes an important figure in Tevos' life. It has some really interesting political intrigue elements, as it deals with the relationship between the asari and human governments. The writing style is engaging and easy to follow.

One great fanfiction idea could be about Male Shepard and Liara's adventures during their exploration of a new, uncharted planet. They might encounter strange alien species and have to work together to understand and communicate with them. This could test their relationship and show how well they can rely on each other in difficult situations.

I really like 'Male Shepard: The Lost Missions'. This fanfiction takes Shepard on some unique side - quests that were not part of the original game. It adds a whole new layer of adventure and mystery to Shepard's story, and the action scenes are quite exciting.

There could be a fanfiction where Male Shepard has to convince Aria to support the fight against the Reapers. It would involve a lot of political intrigue and tense negotiations between the two strong - willed characters. Aria is very much about her own territory on Omega, and Shepard has to appeal to her sense of a greater good.

It adds depth to the characters. Fanfiction allows fans to explore different aspects of Shepard and Garrus' personalities that might not be fully explored in the game. It also keeps the fandom alive between game releases. People can keep engaging with the characters they love through these stories.

There could be action - packed fanfics too. Maybe an OC has to protect Tevos from a secret assassin group. This would lead to exciting chase scenes across different planets in the Mass Effect world, with the OC using their unique skills, whether it's biotic powers or combat expertise, to keep Tevos safe. And all the while, there could be a mystery behind who hired the assassins and what their real motives are.
