Rook's Business Card

TYSM for the tag @sunny374940 this was such a fun little tag game!

Here's Az's shoddy looking business card! He's never really seen the need for a business card before, but Emmrich pointed out that it would probably be a faster way to introduce himself & would cut down on having to talk so much which was enough to convince his introverted ass lmfao

This is kind of his first and only attempt at one so it's pretty basic and focuses on getting to the point!

He mostly wanted the most important info easy to see at a first glance; for people to know he also protects The Necropolis too since his beau & skelly son is there & he likes the vibes of the place; also he likes his daggers and orbs sue him asdfhggkj

No pressure tagging the lovelies! : @caughtnyact ; @andthekitchensinkao3 ; @hyperions-light ; @ofcrowsanddragons ; @thedissonantverses ; @fangbangerghoul ; @pavuslavellan ; & Literally anyone else who fancies giving it a go! :3 <3

Okay, but what if Lucanis does buy Rook de Riva an important (mage)knife.

He gets knives, he has a good weaponsmith, but mages don't use their knives as much for stabbing/slashing directly as channeling elemental magic to stab with, so he goes to Emmrich and asks for the simplest, most paired down explanation of crafting materials' effect on magical frequencies that is humanly possible, specifically as it applies to knives.

Emmrich reminds Lucanis that he is in fact a stave user, but Rook would be a good person to ask.

Lucanis grits his teeth because he can tell from the older man's smile that Emmrich is having some fun at his expense. Of course Emmrich knows it's for Arsinoë. Lucanis hadn't wanted to be that obvious, but he can admit that it is.

Unfortunately, even when sincere, Emmrich is incapable of simple. Poor Lucanis knew this going in, of course and decided on Emmrich anyway because Neve would catch on too quickly and spoil her own gift and Bellara was equally incapable of simple and more prone to distracted tangents. It doesn't mean he's any more prepared to make sense of all this, and in the end he has to take Emmrich to meet his weaponsmith directly.

(The resulting "collaborative brainstorming session" almost scared Lucanis, put his favorite weaponsmith in a mind to possible shift specialties entirely, and cost House Dellamorte the price of a fully functional forge. It's still worth it.)

The end result is a beautiful piece of everite that feels vividly like the air in a storm in Rook's hands yet looks deceptively crystalline and fragile. It immediately becomes her favorite, unlike the vanished knife he gave Viago all those years ago, and from her shy smiles, he likes to think this time he's been understood.

Altogether, things are going well for once. If he feels more pride than maybe is reasonable every time he sees the everite blade in her hands alive with magic that cuts through a Venatori, then that's between him and Spite.

And Arsinoë. And Neve. And honestly everyone else because he's so terrible at hiding it.

All is going well, for once.

Until Tearstone Island, when he wakes up to Neve's anguished face, purple shards like crystal that cut through his gloves as he reaches for the snapped blade and severed hilt, his blood mixing with the sand, and-

and no Rook.

Rook: Lucanis, hear me out, but what if Spite did learn fire?

Spite (Lucanis): Give me! Fire!

Lucanis: NO.

Rook: But think about it, though. If Spite learned fire then you would have an easier time disposing of the bodies.

Spite (Lucanis): Rook! Is my! Favorite!

Lucanis: Mierda...

Outfit reference sheet for my Rook!

Was this mostly an excuse to draw her in fun dresses for attending imaginary balls with Lucanis? Duh

Saw people doing this with screenshots from the game, wanted to give it a go with art

Spite did a favor for Lucanis

I love Emmerich talks with Rookanis

[master-of-the-elements]

I think I have a type 🧐😏

Handsome monster hunters who leave home, have estranged relationships with their family, swear to protect others, gain several scars, have their bodies altered in some way and you have to convince them to put themselves first.

And I make a weather/storm themed spellcaster/mage to romance them ☺️🙃🙂‍↕️

{Unnamed} - Emrook AU WIP

Catching up with ZWP's Day 2 Prompt which was mood boards! SO, here's a mood board I threw together for a new Emrook AU I've been cooking up!! 💖

An AU where Solas was already stopped by the Inquisitor; so instead of becoming the Veilguard's leader, Az Mercar is sent away from Tevinter for a short while. This was partially to help him avoid the heat from the botched Nessus job, though this wouldn't be a vacation for the Shadow. Az's newest mission would have him investigating a suspected Venatori Ally in The Necropolis. Naturally, things become a lot more complicated when one of his main suspects just happens to be a devastatingly charming Mortalitasi by the name of Emmrich Volkarin.

Fenris and Hawke's kid in Veilguard cause why not?

Timeline wise- Prolly hard to make her in her 20s but we can pretend cause we love fun.

No her parents aren't dead, the reason she's with Varric is cause he was trying to find help with finding Solas and she popped out of nowhere like "Uncle Varric : D" like any Hawke would.

She's a mage, cause I feel like with the amount of mage-blood in BOTH parents' bloodline, there's a slim chance of her not being one. She does tend to light up blue a lot like Fenris, small streaks of her hair and eyes going crazy when she's using magic.

Spoilers Below if you haven't finished the game yet- (NO TOUCHY)

Poor uncle Varric.....

Spirits really are your specialty.

I've always had a rapport with them.
