* Due to the clunky Mako controls in ''[=ME1=]'', some fanfics have Shepard be a bad driver, with the squad have varying amounts of fear to Shepard's driving.

In fandom, it's a lot more common, appearing as far back as the events of ''Mass Effect 1'', albeit usually in the hands of elite or highly skilled forces, just like in canon. Fanfics also tend to have thermal clips being used as far back as then, in order to fix the VoodooShark caused by their introduction.

* Female Shepard is commonly presented as the canonical version of Shepard in fan art and fanfiction, despite male Shepard being used in all of the promotional materials and statistics revealing 82% of players choose to play as him. This can be credited to the fact that women are overrepresented among the general population on fanfiction and fan art sites, while men are overrepresented among the general population in [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Women_and_video_games#Genre_preferences the player bases]] of third-person shooter (90+%) and western RP (75%+) games.

* Many fans take it as a given that the benign neoplasm that makes it near impossible for Miranda to conceive was intentionally engineered by her father as another means of control. While certainly possible, this is never actually stated anywhere, and it is just as possible that it was unintentional and the very thing that led him to create Oriana.
