- This is the tale of doctor Henri Ford, a xenoarchaeologist and an adventurer, and his friends as they are facing a new world - the Galaxy awakening from an endless cycle into a New Beginning.
- (Ep. 1-2)
- First Mission Ford undertakes, along with his fellow scholar Tuferson Kris, is to ferry a shipment of ship equipment to the Quarian Flotilla on behalf of Turian hierarchy. Unbeknownst to them, the liaison Turians send along with the wares to establish a long term trade scheme turns out to be a terrorist, recruited by forces unknown to spark a conflict between the Turians, Quarians and the Geth.
- The attempt is foiled, however, as the two scholars' presence of mind forces the turian to prematurely drop his mask. After a quick chase the terrorist is subdued, his plans thwarted. During following investigation and debriefing extent of the threat is revealed to all involved parties - including a Citadel agent, the Asari Spectre Libella Tefar.
- With part of the mystery unraveled doctors Ford and Tufferson go through with the initial mission of setting up a trade line, strengthening bonds between the allied Aliens, and take advantage of Quarian hospitality, including upgrades for the ship and recruiting a young Quarian Pilgrim, Lea'Fari nar Namek as a third member of the crew.
- (Ep. 3-4)
- Ford and his team return to the Earth to conclude their initial mission as well as to drop off their passenger - the spectre Libella. On impulse, motivated in part by a vivid recollection brought forward by a Precursor artifact Quarians had in their custody, Ford decides to pay a visit to the Alliance outpost in London where the Infiltrator units, dormant since the Crucible blast ravaged the Reapers across the known Universe, were stored and studied. During their visit an attempt is made to spirit away one of the model - by a twist of fate, the very one Ford previously fought alongside of during the Reaper crisis! Giving chase, Ford's team is capable of intercepting the thieves, revealed to be Cerberus operatives, and not only securing but also awakening the dormant gynoid.
- Rather than call it a day, however, Ford's crew decided to walk the extra mile - taking on the guise of the now defeated pickup crew and with data from their flight computer the friends are able to infiltrate the Cerberus base and, together with an Alliance strike force, defeat its cell commander and succeed in taking control of the facility.
- During search of the installation Ford comes across another nefarious plot the Cerberus commander was pursuing - ancient artifacts from the Asari culture that suggested that Asari have been in fact uplifted by the Protheans! Ford makes his crew and his new Spectre acquaintance aware of this secret but otherwise decides to keep it hidden from public view.
- (Ep. 4-5)
- After spending some rest and recovery time back on Earth, Ford is rejoined with his comrade - Alliance consents to place Eve, the infiltrator gynoid, under his care in recognition of his work. Thus Ford gains another member into his crew.
- He is soon able to witness her performance when a recent acquaintance of his issues a distressed call for help to which Ford responds by infiltrating an office building that turns out to have a much larger basement than any corporate structure ought to have. Along with his crew he manages to rescue several prisoners of the shady corporation and learns of what seems to be yet another unsavory conspiracy bent on global domination.
- (Ep. 6)
- Having concluded their adventure in the office block, witnessing power of an unchained AI and making some new enemies Ford and his crew return to orbit to carry out Lea's plan to use a string of improvised drones to help clean the orbit up on behalf of Kourou spaceport commander Kang. In the process, Ford's crew chances upon a fortunate, if unsettling, find - a derelict Reaper with its Eezo core ripe for picking!
- (Ep. 7-9)
- With the orbital cleanup set up to commander Kang's satisfaction Ford is free to undertake another assignment - a humanitarian mission to bring emergency supplies to an outpost of Omega outcasts that has gone mysteriously silent. After taking aboard several associates working on behalf of Sirta foundations Chariot heads to the ice moon of Enceladus.
- What the party finds them takes them entirely by surprise and pushes boundaries of their conceptions of the universe. The outpost turns out to be a battleground of evenly matched psionic forces, station's unwitting inhabitants caught in the middle. Fortunately our valiant crew proves up to the task and ends the stalemate by breaking what is later revealed to be a Leviathan projection sphere and soothing the distressed child in which exposure to the mental invasion awakened powerful psionic abilities.
- Ford and the party are debriefed by the Alliance command and instructed to keep the incident strictly secret while the young psion is placed under caring wing of the Grissom Academy instructor.
- (Ep.10-11)
- Returning to Earth Ford finds himself drawn into a point of contention with the stranded Krogan community that has been developing into a potential diplomatic crisis. Especially upon learning that the tensions are deliberately stoked by an unknown party Ford and especially Kris commit themselves to preventing the crisis from escalating any further - and they come up with a plan: in order to find a way to give the Krogan an outlet for their fighting lust they resolve to arrange construction of a battlesport stadium. Securing involvement of an unlikely combination of catholic Church, Alliance spaceport commander Kang and the Quarian fleet, a project is tentatively set in motion...
- (Ep. 12)
- Not one to sit idly by when the events don't require their immediate attention, Ford takes on yet another task and adopts role of a private investigator. It would seem a well liked singer is concerned about disappearance of her son. Though the case may initially appear banal, the xenoarchaeologist soon enough finds that the circumstances, as he was getting used to, are far from ordinary. The trail of clues tempered by his gut instinct takes Ford to a strange warehouse in extralegal slums outside Rouen and into a secret corporate laboratory hidden beneath it that has since been overrun by some sort of thought controlling alien plant-like organism.
- Luckily, the strange alien entity, after some initial resistance, proves amenable to peaceful resolution. Ford and the missing persons liberated from its clutches eventually convince it to surrender remaining sapients in exchange for fair treatment at hands of the Council, which is represented by none other than Ford's spectre friend.
- (Ep. 13)
- Meanwhile, in the Jungle, the renegade Krogan join forces with the Adventurer vigilantes to trace origin of a bioengineered beast of war. The unlikely allies successfully pinpoint the unmarked facility from which the creature seems to originate, secure its perimeter and delve boldly into its depths to confront the unknown.
- The unknown turns out to be an engineered lifeform constructed on basis of an alien sample. The party explores the complex and after some fighting of its offspring comes to confront and defeat the queen herself; after collecting what evidence they can the joint party then turns facility over to an Alliance intelligence crew.
- With their final hunt concluded the Krogan then head to the outskirts of Kinshasa where a meeting with local authorities is arranged that would formalize the agreement to build a new bloodsport arena. Although the blood is mostly holographic in this case.
- (Ep. 14)
- The party is reunited at the outskirts of Kinshasa where all your work and goodwill with the many factions you've interacted with come together and bear fruit: a formal commitment is made between several flavours of humanity, krogans and quarians to build a holographic arena, to satisfaction of most everyone involved.
- (Ep. 15)
- Ford and his companions take the skycar on a trip to north american tundra to investigate headquarters of the Ambition movement on suspicions of a business competition having taken a murderous turn. Eve takes it upon herself to infiltrate the facility and uncovers a wealth of information on Ambition's methods and involvement, securing among other things evidence of sabotage.
- Eve's solo infiltration ultimately succeeds in recovering evidence that sheds light on a lethal presumed accident, damning the Ambition leadership and ultimately, as Alliance authorities are summoned to secure the site, apprehend the Ambition leadership proper, removing them off the board - probably for good.
- (Ep. 16 - arc finale?)
- Begins in a tavern, where on the eve of embarking on Hackett's mission related to the locked down Citadel, the party is celebrating their recent success...
