Mass Effect 1 Character Journal : "Pre-mission & Eden Prime"


(Here is the first part of My Mass Effect Character Journal as Commander Andreas Sheppard. This Journal will follow the games as I play them; any details missing is because I either did not want to put them in or missed them from my play through. This character will run through to the ending of Mass Effect 3 and I will be doing this for ME1, ME2 and ME3. Once each game has been done I will post a complete log along side the parts; followed by all three in one post for someone to easily copy it down if they wish to read it somewhere else. )

- EARTH SPACE DOCK

Log Entry 0.0.1 

Just been told that the Normandy is up and ready for its shakedown. Months overlooking the construction and finishing touches has finally come to a close; now is time for us to test its Stealth systems and make sure the ships is ready for full commission. Just set a message to my parents in the fleet, their commands put them on the other side of the galaxy so I try to send messages now and again. I will continue to report on the missions but now I have to go and meet Captain Anderson at the Normandy Dock.

Supplemental 0.2

Got a final look at the ship with Anderson before we took off, the ship itself is beautiful and the crew is ready to get going. Months of training is all ready to be put to the test. We picked up a SPECTRE from a council ship on its way here, seems they wanted to see their investment on the ship; I smell something fishy.

Supplemental 0.3

On the bridge with Joker and Alenko, watched us jump to the system where Eden Prime is located. Wont be long now, Stealth Systems seem to be working and all is ready. Anderson calls from the briefing room and tells me to get to the briefing room. Joker makes a cock up with Nihlus, the turian SPECTRE and Anderson, so shuts up.

Supplemental 0.4

Spoke with Navigator Presley, Doc Chakwas and Pvt Jenkins on way to the briefing room; the kid was itching for a fight but its going to get him killed one day, calmed him down though.

In the briefing hall, I met Nihlus for the first time and we spoke as we waited for the Captain; we spoke of Eden Prime, and as Anderson came in, they told me that I was to be a Candidate for the SPECTRE's, This mission and others to follow were tests to see if I am cut out for it.

The mission was not just a shakedown cruise; we were after a working Prothean beacon found on Eden Prime. Just as were talking about it, Joker but in and told us that a Distress call was coming from Eden Prime, the colony was under attack so we rushed to the planet with stealth Systems on. It looked like the Crew and the Normandy would get their first test of Action.


- EDEN PRIME

Log Entry 1.0.0

We dropped into the situation outside the colony, Nihlus went on ahead and I took Alenko and Jenkins at drop point 2. We moved through the fields and the tree's until we came to a path. it was all quiet until several Geth Recon drones came out of no where and fired upon Jenkins. He never stood a chance as the plasma burnt straight through his kinetic barriers. After we took out the drones I made sure Alenko was okay and told him we'd give Jenkins a decent burial when the mission was over.

Supplemental 1.1

We picked a soldier that had survived the attack for the few hours it had taken us to get to the planet. her name was Ashley Williams of the 212nd. We watched a pair of Geth soldiers impale a colonist on a huge spike; we had no idea why they did this but we would make them pay for ever colonist we saw on one of these. 

Ashley took us to the dig site; after fighting through several Geth to get to it though.

Supplemental 1.2 

Well the spikes do have a purpose. As we approached several, they lowered and it seemed the colonists had been turned into some kind of walking zombie. They were tough to take down but we managed to do it. After finding several survivors we headed down to the space port. We found Nihlus dead; a lazy dockworker who had been hiding explained that another Turian, named Saren, had shot Nihlus in the back of the head. He also stated the pair seemed to know each other and that was how he caught him off-guard.

Supplemental 1.3

We proceeded to the train line and moved up to the next Docking port after Saren. We found several bombs and after deactivating them and several more Geth, we found the beacon.

The area was secured and I was talking to the Normandy when I noticed Ashley getting to close to the Beacon and it began to drag her in. I was caught in it as I pushed her away. My feet lifted off the floor and I experienced a nightmarish vision before blacking out. Later I was told the Beacon Detonated.

AFTER ACTION REPORT

Nihlus KIA
PVT Jenkins KIA
Ashley Joined the Team
Beacon Destroyed
Colony decimated
