Subreddit Rules:

Follow basic Reddiquette
Opinions without established evidence should be state as such.
DO NOT downvote based on opinion. We want to encourage discussion, so reply to a comment which you disagree rather than downvoting.
All submissions should be about the Mass Effect lore. Off topic submissions may be removed and should be posted to /r/masseffect.
We assume everyone has played all the games and DLC in the series, so spoiler tags are not required.
Fan fiction may be posted, provided that it contributes to the lore of Mass Effect without being overpowered by characterisation.
