A dead soldier wins an afterlife lottery and is given the chance to live a new life in another universe while gaining access to Gamer-like powers. Not a full-on x-over, but has a lot of elements that are similar to those found in 'The Gamer' manhwa. OC/Quasi-SI. NOTE: This story starts almost 4000 years before the Prequel Era but will arrive there by there end of the Prologue.

So, I've woken up with a pounding migraine and a million questions, and no answers are in sight. The best I can do is learn to survive as I try to get ready for the invasion that I know is coming. But like everybody knows, Illium is not a safe planet. When all I've got for friends are a jaded mechanic, a bitter matriarch, and a Batarian exile... even survival can prove to be rough.

Bad luck seems to follow me wherever I go. I've been pulled from universe to universe, forced to put skills I didn't know I had to the test. But now I'm in Mass Effect and I have a chance to make some good luck for myself. I have a year to prepare for the events of Mass Effect. Self Insert.
