Desire to play. Just the starting point

​This game was created from the desire to play a lot more in the Mass Effect universe. By the time I finished the DLC Lair of the Shadow Broker there weren't any available conversions of the saga into a Tabletop RPG. But that didn't stop me or dulled my desire to create campaigns and play in this wonderful universe brought to us by BioWare.

Converting the game was a challenge. For months, I relied only on my own expertise. Eventually I reached the point where I needed other opinions and thus the forum was created. There, hundreds eventually got to take a good look at the game and shared their own ideas and criticism. In the following years, this exchange of ideas allowed the game to flourish tremendously into an extremely solid and fun tabletop RPG. To make it perfect, I could count with the help of amazing designer, Tommy Rayburn, who gave the manual the spectacular Mass Effect feeling and look it has.

Now, Mass Effect d20 stands as one of the best adaptations of the saga into a tabletop RPG, being played worldwide by hundreds of gamers in person or simply via Post-By-Post forums.

The d20 rules used by this game are based on the d20 OGL provided by Wizards of the Coast. The intellectual property of Mass Effect does not belong to me but to BioWare. Adaptations that are outside the standard d20 rules were created by me and other contributors. This game is being distributed for free and is purely a fan-made creation. No money was ever charged for its distribution.
