Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Mass Foundations is a fanfiction series primarily set in the Mass Effect and the Fallout universes, written by Nord Ronnoc. Initially, the series is strongly inspired by Mass Vexations and Masses to Masses, given that Herr Wozzeck and Nord once shared some ideas together on the former.Redemption in the Stars follows the plot of Mass Effect: Redemption (which is set between set between the second game's opening and the main plot) and is centered on Ethan Sunderland, the Courier. In the years after the events of his adventures in the Mojave, a teleportation experiment has gone wrong, transporting him to Omega. He soon meets Shepard's former squadmate Liara T’Soni and information broker Feron, and gets involved in their hunt to recover Commander Shepard’s body before it falls into the hands of the Collectors. Redemption in the Stars was originally called Mass Vexations: Redemption and had a degree of involvement from Herr Wozzeck prior to a falling out between the two. It can be viewed here.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })A New Day is revolved around Eric Grimes, a highschool graduate. During a vacation with his family, he was transported to the Mass Effect universe when he stumbled upon a strange artifact. He had to adjust to the strange universe he found himself in. Unlike the other characters, Eric is shy and mild-mannered and is inexperienced in a fight for most of it. It can be viewed here.Little Star starred Commander Shepard as she found a distress signal on a planet called Acabar, where strange and twisted creatures known as the Merged had wiped out most of the science team. Nord has likened it to Alien, The Thing (1982), and Event Horizon. It can be read here.All the World's a Stage stars the Twelfth Doctor as he has been brought to the Fallout universe. He sets out to investigate, meeting up with Jocelyn Song, the Lone Wanderer. The title references the well-known phrase from As You Like It. Time will tell if additional references to Shakespeare will be made. The original version was on, FanFiction.Net before he took it down and replaced it with a rewriten version. Like his other works below, you can also find the original version on SpaceBattles.com and Sufficient Velocity here and here respectively, which has crossed over with the Soul Series.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_3'); })Molten Lead has a field agent Zachary Turner assessing and scouting for potential candidates for Shepard's squad as depicted in Mass Effect 2 when Rasa turned up missing, struggling with his inner demons as well as external sources manipulating events behind the scenes. It can be viewed here and on SpaceBattles.com and Sufficient Velocity here and here respectively.Currently, Nord has posted forums of the stories, including a rewrite of Redemption in the Stars, on SpaceBattles.com and Sufficient Velocity. On SB, Redemption in the Stars can be viewed here and a New Day can be viewed here. On SV, Redemption in the Stars can be viewed here, and a New Day can be viewed here. But Nord has rebooted A New Day. You can find the new threads on SB and SV here and here respectively.Recently, he has released lore entries at the end of each entry in the series, which expands on the lore unique to the series as well as any other setting the fics use. The series also has a link on Archive of Our Own. | |

| Mass Foundations / Fan Fic / int_1086f287 | comment |
Sure, Let's Go with That: When Natalie told Eric that she and the other analysts at C-Sec came to a conclusion that, because of the circumstances of his arrival to the Mass Effect universe, he either came from the past or from another universe, which wasn't far off to begin with. Naturally, Eric accepted that as the answer. | |

| Mass Foundations / Fan Fic / int_13eea985 | comment |
Arbitrary Skepticism: Feron expressed doubt about the Courier's origins, even after the Courier himself asked about how biotics work. This was lampshaded by the Courier and Liara. Eventually, he relented after the Courier showed his memories to Liara in a mind-meld. | |

| Mass Foundations / Fan Fic / int_14beeefd | comment |
Darker and Edgier: Compared to the previous entries, having a Villain Protagonist who's fanatically devoted to Cerberus, along with an an unsettling atmosphere throughout the fic. There are also political references to the later half of the 2010s, specifically ideologies such as the alt-right. It even got a Mature rating on Archive of Our Own and Fan Fiction Dot Net due to these depictions, the increased level of gore and violence, and Zachary's Attempted Suicide near the beginning. | |

Gone Horribly Wrong: As soon as the orb arrived, the science team on Acabar did nothing at first. By the time they came around, that was when hell broke loose and the Merged, well, commerce, causing the facility to go into lockdown. It was exacerbated by Harland, as she ordered the others not to cease experimentation in a chain of emails. | |

The Cameo: Quite a few characters from the Mass Effect series were in this fic. Garrus was seen talking with an asari C-sec officer in the fourth chapter while Eric became friends with Suvi Anwar from Mass Effect: Andromeda at the Black Star in the third chapter in a discussion about their religious beliefs. Steve Cortez shows up to offer help to Eric and his friends during Mass Effect's endgame while they were sneaking off an Alliance facility on Earth. | |

Reality Ensues | |
| Mass Foundations / Fan Fic / int_1d9a2764 | comment |
Reality Ensues: Redemption in the Stars: After their defeat at the hands of the Courier, Blue Suns amped up their security forces, overwhelming him, Liara, and Feron at the abandoned mining facility. The sudden turn of events forced the Courier to flee, leaving Liara and Feron behind. When the Courier took a Blue Suns Centurion from a scouting group hostage, his demands were rejected as the other Blue Suns call him out on his wanton killing of their peers and attempt to distract him long enough for backup to arrive. He ultimately sees through it and points out that he'll just kill the reinforcements. It worked. A New Day: C-Sec discovered a good part about Eric when he arrived in the Mass Effect universe. How did they find out? By looking at his ID card. Because of his circumstances, it was implied he was under surveillance, though we don't get much beyond that. After Eric got his credentials, C-Sec brought him in to question him. When they found out he was clean, they let him go. | |

Different World, Different Movies | |
| Mass Foundations / Fan Fic / int_258a5cfe | comment |
Different World, Different Movies: While Eric was browsing the Extranet, he found out what games BioWare had released from 1995 to 2023, one of which was the third game in the Baldur's Gate series called Black Hound. It was obvious they never released Mass Effect. Meanwhile, Dragon Age was in development at one point but it ended up being too expensive much to make, so it was shelved. Jade Empire received a sequel on the Xbox 360. Instead, there was the SFX franchise, built on similar premises to Mass Effect. BioWare had also collaborated with Obsidian Entertainment on to create some sort of a modern spy RPG called Everything or Nothing, which sounded like Alpha Protocol. | |

Bittersweet Ending: Shepard and her team ended the Merged threat, but many of the Acabar crew had died in the effort. While Harland was implied to be put in prison, it wasn't the case months later, now that she was working for Cerberus with the Courier. The facility seemed to be rebuilt by Cerberus, and it wasn't known if the whole process could repeat itself. | |

He ultimately sees through it and points out that he'll just kill the reinforcements. It works. | |

Contrasting Sequel Main Character | |
| Mass Foundations / Fan Fic / int_517d2eb8 | comment |
Contrasting Sequel Main Character: So far, each entry in the series (Redemption in the Stars, A New Day, and All the World's a Stage, for example) features different protagonists. As such: Redemption in the Stars has Ethan Sunderland, aka the Courier, who's a (though implied) multi-ethnic man with a sarcastic and somewhat selfish streak, though he is willing to help his friends out. Meanwhile, in A New Day, Eric Grimes is also multi-ethnic (half-Hispanic and half-caucasian) and male but gay. He comes off as meek and shy yet intelligent, having many relatives before winding up in the Mass Effect universe. In All the World's a Stage, Jocelyn Song, aka the Lone Wanderer, is female and half-Asian, half-black. She comes off as a more traditional hero compared to the other protagonists, though she was haunted by her perceived failures. Commander Shepard, starting in Little Star, is an extremely capable combatant and leader, as demonstrated in the original trilogy. She is alo abrasive towards people that angered or infuriated her, like with Harland's proposal on the orb and her neglect in the situation. She also isn't afraid to interrogate people that comes off as suspicious, even when they're unarmed. But above all else, she is primary focused on saving as many lives as she can, even it includes people she despised.note In other words, a Paragade. | |

Insecurity Camera: Played with. The cameras themselves are quite well placed throughout the building on Alingon and on the outside, but they’re absent at the rear entrance since there are already guards and turrets present. Inside, they’re brought down by the terminal located too close to the entrance, allowing the group to hack into it. | |

Intercontinuity Crossover: Seems to be the staple of the series so far. Fallout and Mass Effect? Pretty popular crossover if you know where to look. Doctor Who and Fallout? Okay.

Instant Sedation: More realistic than usual; a manual syringe is used, the target is restrained, and the hitman, Tazzik, checks the dosage before using the sedative. | |

Dream Sequence | |
| Mass Foundations / Fan Fic / int_615fdb1f | comment |
Dream Sequence: Occurred in the fifth chapter. Eric's dream consisted of the Faceless Masses save for people he personally knew, all ignoring him. Then he went to a tunnel, with large security cameras watching his every move. The dream ended with everything going dark. | |

Forgot About His Powers | |
| Mass Foundations / Fan Fic / int_650a309b | comment |
Forgot About His Powers: Strongly averted. The Courier used VATS, the Jury Rigging perk, his Pip Boy map, and the Geiger counters. Liara frequently employed various biotic talents during combat and Feron can fix equipment with omni-gel, like the Infiltrator class of the first game. Even the Blue Suns’ members use the full spectrum of their equipment from the second game, with missile launcher soldiers, flamethrower troops and Legionnaires with anti-shield disruptor ammo all present and accounted for. | |

Not So Invincible After All: The Collector-General is a hulking figure of chitin and lava, able to unleash biotic barrages and with inhumanly durable barriers. When Ethan ends up fighting it alone, the Shadow Broker’s guards consider him doomed and see no reason to intervene. When the creature finally gets brought to his knees, they fire at him, but it was too late. | |

Let's Split Up, Gang: When the Courier first engages the Blue Suns, a Centurion splits away from the remaining group to deal with him. Justified, as they don’t know his skills yet and Centurions are Elite Mooks in the game. Justified again in the fourth chapter, where only one Blue Suns hovercar out of five is sent to investigate the car left behind by the team and where Ethan is lurking. They didn't expect him to stick around near the facility and so the rest are searching for him on the outskirts. | |

Absurdly Spacious Sewer: Ethan, Liara and Feron snuck into the abandoned mining facility to get Shepard’s body through the wastewater pipe. Downplayed, as mining always produced large quantities of wastewater and the pipes of the size shown (they’re implied to be just large enough to move through) are quite likely to be used. Because the facility processed eezo, the water was radioactive as well; they could only get through because of Ethan’s Rad-X. | |

The protagonist Natalie's playing as in Redeemer is a Distaff Counterpart of Guts, albeit one possessed, wielding fire-based powers as a result. Even the description of her sword's taken word-for-word from the series' Running Gag. With that in mind, a demon-possessed knight-like character with fire powers also bears a Distaff Counterpart resemblance to Nightmare. Even the wording of the sword's description to the Dragonslayer is similar. | |

And earlier on, when Ethan attempts to bargain for information by taking a Centurion hostage, the other Blue Suns call him out on the unprovoked killing he has done before. Ethan deflects their accusations, calling them out on their Moral Myopia. Liara's not happy when Ethan suggest they hand Shepard over to Cerberus. He manages to convince her to see from his viewpoint, but it's clear that she's still upset about his past actions. | |

Rotating Protagonist: The first chapter and prologue goes exclusively from Doctor's perspective. After that, it switches between his and Jocelyn's for most of it. | |

Action Girl | |
| Mass Foundations / Fan Fic / int_dae5c997 | comment |
Action Girl: Liara was an obvious one. An unnamed Blue Suns Commander fits this trope much better, carrying heavy weaponry and is able to escape Liara's stasis with little effort. | |

Your Head A-Splode: The Courier finishes off the the Harbinger-possessed Collector by discharging the entire clip of his M-6 Carnifex into his head, with predictable results. | |

Groin Attack | |

Groin Attack: A Blue Suns Centurion attempts this on the Courier, but he dodges it due to his close-combat experience in the Mojave. This mistake lets Ethan capture her. | |

Sci-Fi Horror: Monsters invoking Body Horror? Check. Corrupt Corporate Executive (or at least down from a lower level)? Check. An experiment that has Gone Horribly Wrong? You bet! | |

Dwindling Party | |
| Mass Foundations / Fan Fic / int_ed68bcc9 | comment |
Dwindling Party: Not to Shepard and her team. Prior to the events of the fic, there were dozens of people working at the planet's facility. By the time the orb arrived and Shepard's arrival afterwards, only six of the crew remained. And that number dropped to two: Dr. Harland and a security guard, Chelsey Fayne, who was rendered unconscious due to stress and lack of sleep. | |

| Mass Foundations / Fan Fic / int_fa779d17 | comment |
Ascetic Aesthetic: The Shadow Broker’s base at Alingon is described as being absolutely grey and utilitarian and with good reason. The building was spliced out of several pre-made hubs so that the dedicated architect wouldn’t have to be employed. | |

Shown Their Work: The base infiltration scene on Alingon doesn’t arbitrarily choose the 30 second number to add more drama. That is the maximum duration of the Sabotage ability you can unlock in the first game. | |
