    Shep It: A Mass Effect First-Timers Podcast Episode 1: Character Creation and Eden Prime

    Welcome to the first proper episode of Shep It: A Mass Effect First-Timers Podcast. Join Jonathon Dornbush, Belinda Garcia, and Jordan Mychal Lemos as they begin making their way through the Mass Effect trilogy, each for the first time. The trio will be cataloging their adventures aboard the Normandy and throughout the galaxy, recounting their Paragon or Renegade decisions, debating which aliens to smooch, and much more. On the first episode, Jonathon, Belinda, and Jordan go over character creation and explain their approach to creating each of their individual Shepards. Did they go Male or FemShep? What class did they choose? What background have they given their intrepid space commander, and do they now regret it because they'll never hear the end of what happened on Akuze? Find out all that and more as the trio explains their character creation process. Plus, we cover the Eden Prime prologue, including its introductions to combat, squad members, and the overarching story of the Mass Effect series. Has it hooked us from the start, or did the first impression not quite land? Listen to find out!
