    Summary

    Alexander "Bishop" de Riva has lived a life of constant battles: losses and victories. From the Antaam to the Evanuris, he can count the many times his life was almost forfeit. And yet, he's still alive. These are small sections prior to Veilguard and during the game--with some canon divergence.

    This is Alexander "Bishop" de Riva, leader of the Veilguard and the Blades of Treviso, the Second Hand and Guildmaster of House de Riva. He's carving out his fate with his own damn hands, whatever it takes to keep everyone alive.

    Summary

    It's become easy for Caius to weave lies among truth, to give a little here and bend a little there, all in the name of self preservation. To begin to untangle them when it means survival is less so.

    To unravel them completely to love near impossible.

     

    “Oh, child... You have been torn asunder.”

    Summary

    “You know, it’s rather impressive, actually,” said a smooth voice as Dorian Pavus sauntered into his line of sight. Lucanis relaxed slightly. He didn’t know Dorian very well, but at least the Archon of Tevinter was unlikely to try and kiss up to him like some of the other nobles hovering about like vultures.
    “What is?” Lucanis asked, mildly afraid of the answer.
    “How you manage to brood in a corner even more dramatically than Solas ever did.”

    Lucanis Dellamorte has always hated parties, but saving the world and falling in love with Rook has resulted in far, far too many social obligations by far. Luckily for him, while Lucanis is attending yet another tedious gathering in Minrathous with Rook, newly minted Archon Dorian Pavus rescues him from miserable small talk with entertaining conversation and an opportunity to sneak off and kill some Venatori while their respective partners handle the politics. It's guys' night!

    Summary

    Twelve years ago, Commander Shepard disappeared during the reaper invasion. She entered the Crucible and decided the fate of the entire galaxy–by sacrificing herself. She killed the reapers, heretic geth, and disabled half the Mass Effect relays on her way out.

    Twelve years ago, Garrus Vakarian told her to come back alive. Now, after retiring early back on Palaven, the galaxy continues to feel emptier and emptier without her. With a glass of turian Horosk in one hand and Black Widow in the other, he's blurring the lines between reality and wishful thinking. That is, until Liara, Kaidan, and Tali show up at his front door with a lead on Shepard.

    Wishful thinking or not, he'll fight through hell to save her, or he'll meet her at the bar in heaven trying.

    Summary

    Lucanis nearly laughed. Alright? Nothing had been alright since he was seven. Since he regained consciousness to silence, surrounded by the lifeless bodies of everyone he loved. Since he stumbled through the wreckage to find his family cold, their faces unrecognizable, and realized he was the only one left.

    But at least before Spite, he’d had a purpose. He’d had the Crows, he’d had Illario and Caterina, cruel and stern though she was. He’d had the grand purpose she had shaped him for, been preparing for a life leading the Crows as First Talon.

    But now?

    Now, he was a monster, not fit to lead and barely fit to follow, a liability to their party every time he closed his eyes. But Rook was waiting for an answer.

    ---
    Lucanis is barely holding it together — exhaustion and his inner demon(s) (literal and otherwise) are dragging him down. Rook becomes an unexpected anchor, lending him support as he learns to live with Spite. What starts as survival turns into something deeper, as Rook helps him slowly piece himself back together while Lucanis chases the redemption he thinks he needs.

    Come for the bondage, stay for the whump, angst, fluff and healing.

    Summary

    Professor Solas is the foremost expert on Ancient Arlathan history and has been teaching for longer than anyone can, or should, remember. While he’s come to prefer his quiet, repetitive, and predictable life, a new professor (who's clearly wrong about everything) throws a wrench into his plans and changes his life forever.

    An AU University setting where most of the Inquisition are teachers and most of the Veilguard are students. A lot of crack, mostly comedy, and a solid dash of Solavellan angst and/or smut. Spawned from the minds of a handful of feral Solavellans hailing from the Fen'Harem Discord community, this series of vignettes eventually takes on a life of its own and becomes an alternate timeline reinterpretation of the events of both Inquisition and Veilguard.

    Please note chapters denoted with an asterisk * include mature or explicit content.

    Summary

    “Oh no,” Garrus said. “I know that face. That’s your problem solving face. That’s your I think I can fit through this air vent and drop down behind their reinforcements face.”

    “What if we do it first?”

    He stared at her. “Shepard. I fear the consequences of the next four words immensely. What do you mean?”

    A smile lifted the corner of her mouth. “What if we find you a mate before your dad gets here?”

    “Spirits,” he said, the word half curse, half exhalation. “That’s what I was afraid you were going to say.”

    -----

    They survived the end of the world. They've had a few (relatively) normal years with no catastrophies. But with Garrus’ dad breathing down his neck about finally settling down, they've only got 48 hours to produce a suitable partner.

    Garrus has just the girl in mind. If only she wasn't the one trying to set him up.

    Summary

    “You cannot harbour worry and concern for me, but simultaneously plant the responsibility and accountability for the safety of your factions on my shoulders..."

    The one where Rook rightfully gets pissed at everyone for being a therapy mule with no reciprocation from her team... except Emmerich and Manfred of course.

    Summary

    “When’s the ball?” Rook asks with a sigh. Lucanis’s smile tells her he took the question as an agreement.

    “One week from today,” he says. That leaves seven days for him to teach her how to act like a Crow. Seven days for her to strengthen his resistance to blood magic. Seven days to get a grip on her emotions and not let slip the one secret she holds closest to her heart.

    ---

    Illario's throwing a masquerade ball to crown himself First Talon, so Lucanis and Rook do the only logical thing: sneak in as a Crow couple to save Caterina. It's a fool-proof plan with only three issues: Rook's not a Crow, Lucanis is susceptible to Illario's control, and they're not a couple.

    Summary

    This is a project to create a conlang that will expand upon and deepen the Elvhen language that was created for the Bioware game series, Dragon Age. Elvhen, as it is used in the games, is a cipher, not a language. My goal is to create a complete conlang, or at least a simulated conlang, that other fans can use. The goal is to create a constructed language that is to Dragon Age what Sindarin and Quenya are to Lord of the Rings.

    I do want to stress that this is a constructed language based upon the limited Elvhen we had encountered within the games. I am not using magical linguistic ninjitsu to "Figure out," the Elvhen language. In terms of the "official," language, consider this linguistic fan-fiction.

    This specific work is a collection of my ongoing progress Posts, which you can find on my tumblr (Link below in the notes).

    Summary

    At the Shambali Monastery, it is customary for everyone to lend a hand. Human residents and Omnics work together, and tasks are distributed fairly. Unfortunately, this gives you and Ramattra a headache, because what are you - the monastery's cook - supposed to do with a grumpy Ravager as your kitchen assistant?

    * * *

    "I am not without my faults." When you catch up with Ramattra, his voice is less cold than before. You feel a little sorry for calling him arrogant - it's not like he chose kitchen duty. And to be honest, he'd probably be better off in the archives! "But I think it's an exaggeration to call me arrogant."

    "We all have to work on ourselves a lot," you agree. "And we have to do things we don't like. But let's be honest -" You give him a sideways glance, which he deftly ignores. "Sometimes you think you're better than the rest of us, don't you?"

    "I-" At first he seems to miss the soft, playful undertone in your voice, but then he relents. "Like I said, I'm not without my faults."
