Short spoiler about story below the cut:

Anaris. A Forgotten One.

What in Thedas did they do to him?! They linked a Forgotten One to Bellara's brother, and did nothing with the lore??

Bioware, you don't bring in another evil elven/spirit God into the story and not give us questions we can ask! 😫

I was legitimately excited, only to be left hanging with questions....I feel it would've been better to link Cyrian to a stronger evil demon than bring a Forgotten One into the mix and do nothing with the story arc. 😭😵

A few more potential artbook SPOILERS below the cut.

(Don't spoil game story in comments, please. Most of us still haven't beaten the game.) 😅

Thank you all for joining me on the hype train with the Veilguard artbook! I won't share much more as I'll be playing the game myself today, but I may sneak in a few more posts throughout the day 😁

With that, I'll leave you all with a team concept art. (No spoilers)

Is Felassan in the art book at all?

I know he's potentially going to show up in some memories, and I'm pumped. My plan is to play my Rook as an amnesiac-Felassan, and I'd love to get some ideas on what he might look like.

I have not seen anything about him in the artbook, unfortunately

[achlysfx]

are there any companion spoilers in the artbook? If so, please post.. alternatively, any Nevarra/ Mourn Watch themed stuff. Luv me Necropolis

There's maybe one cameo spoiler, but that was confirmed by actual in-game images people found a few days ago, as for actual companions, I'd say no, aside from one group shot I might've posted earlier?

I can share some concept art later though! Definitely a few images of Necropolis too!

-Insert evil laugh-

MORE ARTBOOK SPOILERS UNDER THE CUT you hungry scholars 😎

[achlysfx]

so solas WAS originally a spirit??

Spoiler answer speculation under the cut, anon! 😊

If the images in the artbook are anything to go by, then yes.

There are other pages that clearly state other art was speculation for story purposes, but these images do not have that, so it might be confirmed here that Solas was infact, a spirit like all other ancient elves.

Keep in mind, this could be denied in the game, so we wont know for sure until we play!

Hey, thanks for posting the art book! It's nice to finally see some of this stuff. As for the ask, does the book get into what dragons are, or how the Forgotten Ones fit in to the elven god drama?

Aww, you're welcome! I wasn't sure whether to make the initial posts, but we're less than 20hrs away, so....😅😁

As for the dragons, there was slight info, but it seemed to be speculation? I haven't seen any direct mention of the Forgotten Ones, though I hope there's content in the game, because they too, were ancient evil elves.

I'm still reading all the fine descriptions between images, but I can say that the first half is more lore-focused, and the second half of the artbook is based on concept art and companions.

SPOILERS SPOILERS SPOILERS

Seriously - there are MAJOR POTENTIAL STORY SPOILERS UNDER THE CUT

Images taken from the new Veilguard artbook (deluxe edition cover). I took an image of the front cover so everyone knows this is LEGIT. Enjoy! 😎

[Tumblr limits posts to 10 images, there's more minor stuff, but I'm gonna leave it at this for now.]

SPOILERS from the artbook below:

Edit: I dont know if I was supposed to get the artbook this early (as release date was supposed to be Nov 8th), but it answers a LOT of lore questions about the game series.

To all the DA fans who are disappointed (however big or small your reasons may be) with Veilguard, use this as your support post. 💜

I'll still stream DAV at launch despite my own personal disappointments, but I want you to know that you're not alone!

May The Dread Wolf Take You.

Viago: Rook, last time you 'did things your way' you fucked up a major Crow operation. What went wrong this time?

Rook, trying to think of a way to tell about two blighted elven gods they accidentally released:

Solas' level of confidence whenever we see him walk slowly in DA:V is just so well animated, it bleeds power to me.

Wisdom has left the building & Pride is assuming his throne. It's as if he completely embodies the Fen'Harel side whenever he's not speaking with someone from the Inquisition.
