''[['''Marauder Shields]]''''' is a ''[[Mass Effect]]'' brief [[Webcomic of the Game|webcomic]] hosted on [[Deviant ART]] by user [http://koobismo.deviantart.com/gallery/ koobismo] starring and centered on the eponymous "[[Marauder Shields]]" a [[Memetic Mutation|Memetic]] and [[Fanon|Fanonical]]ical [[Ensemble Darkhorse]] from ''[[Mass Effect 3]]'' that literally originated as "a random [[Mook|marauder]]<ref>Turian Husk</ref> that appears apparently from thin air during the climax of ''[[Mass Effect 3]].''
 
The comics follow Shields and preexisting [[Mass Effect/Characters|Mass Effect Characters]] during the final hours of the ''[[Mass Effect]]'' trilogy, as the final battle against the [[Big Bad|Reapers]] rages across Earth and the Solar System. While the comics themselves are rather episodic, and focus on different characters every so often, there is a loose story arc present throughout the series, with every character contributing, knowingly or otherwise, to Shields's quest to save Commander Shepard from the [[Base Breaker|Controversial]] [[Ending Aversion|Endings]] of ''[[Mass Effect 3]]''.
