    Summary

    To outside eyes, the Rookery is nothing more than a quaint bookshop. But past its front door, it's clear by the hushed whispers and bowed heads, a different type of merchandise is also traded. Intelligence, secrets, and acquisitions—the types of things that could make or break empires. When an attempt on her life causes a dark secret of her own to be released upon Minrathous, Rook has to reluctantly ally herself with that of an Antivan Crow.

    But of course, out of all the demons in this city, she gets stuck with the "dead" one.

    Summary

    What do you do when your whole life falls apart? You move to Kirkwall.

    Reeling from a personal betrayal, Lucanis Dellamorte is looking for an escape, one he hopes to find as the new line cook at The Hanged Man. As closing shifts with Rook—the bar's enigmatic bartender—lead to friendship, which leads to something more, Lucanis must decide what he wants more: the life he's always known, or the unknown of a fresh start.

    Summary

    Marianela De Riva is an Antivan Crow working in the midst of the Antaam invasion in Treviso. Born a Dalish hunting prodigy, she’s long since accustomed and integrated herself into the complex and dangerous life of an assassin — Specifically a Sirena, a femme-fatale who uses her good-looks and cleverness to complete her contracts.

    When her old friend Noura, now called “Rook” returns to the Cantori Diamond with the very-much-alive-and-possessed-by-a-demon Lucanis Dellamorte, Mari is thrown into the background of a terrifying and apoctalyptic set of circumstances that calls everything she’s known into question.

    Viago told her long ago to stay away from the Dellamorte boys, but he didn’t mention that one of them had pretty brown eyes and long, dark eyelashes.

    Summary

    In Kirkwall’s warren of alleys and darkened stone, violence is a language more common than the Trade tongue. Katica Basri, a Crow-trained assassin bound to a spirit she cannot always control, is drawn into the tangled lives of Hawke and his companions: outcasts, fugitives, and those who have lost more than they can name.

    But it’s Fenris— a fellow survivor shaped by cruelty and loss— whose presence cuts closest. Together they must navigate trauma, both shared and solitary, learning to trust each other in a city where trust is always dangerous and kindness comes with a price.

    As the city ignites, with templars and mages circling, debts resurfacing, and trust growing thin, every secret becomes a weapon. In Kirkwall, survival means choosing sides, even when the line between ally and enemy is always shifting.

    Summary

    Lucanis Dellamorte runs a small flower shop off of the main street of Treviso's market district—when he's not working his actual job as one of Antiva's Crow hitmen under the employ of his grandmother.

    When a friend sends an ex-Grey Warden to him—a tattoo artist looking to learn the art of flower language—Lucanis begins to find that keeping his two lives separate is much more difficult than he had once led himself to believe.

    Summary

    You have to wonder what people can get away with when they're speaking another language. They could be saying anything. Mutter a dirty joke, point out your terrible taste in fashion, or perhaps even declare their undying love for you. It would make no difference. You'd never know.

    Zevran uses this miscommunication to his advantage. He cares deeply for the Warden, that much is clear. He's just not quite ready to admit it to them yet. So in the meantime, he uses his Antivan as an outlet for his confessions.

    They'll never know. Right?

    Summary

    “Do you know,” Illario practically purred, “how many men would trade their fortunes for a moment like this? Just to hold you here and indulge in this wicked shade against your skin?” He leaned in closer, his lips ghosting over her ear. “But it’s mine to admire, isn't it? Mine to ruin, should I wish to.”

    or,

    Illario helps Rook with her lipstick.

    Summary

    Sometimes the smallest choices can change everything.
    Varric’s decision to hire a blood mage to stop Solas was one of them.

    This is the story of a Rook who isn’t quite what anyone expected. Morally gray and socially awkward, she has little interest in making friends. Enter an Antivan Crow, suspicious of her from the start, and suddenly her plans begin to unravel, threatening more than just her secrecy.

    This is also the story of Lucanis Dellamorte, an assassin turned abomination, the last thing he wants is to work alongside the very kind of mage he once hunted. Enter his personal bane, who’s somehow the most tolerant person he’s ever known, and now he isn’t so sure if he should trust his instincts or his morals.

    “You know,” she said, voice low as she raised her hand to gently brush the ridge of the dagger. “I don’t normally use other people's blood in my spells. But I do use my own. So if you’re ever going to try and kill me—” her fingers drifted to skim the blade’s edge, just shy of drawing blood, and Lucanis pulled back with a grunt. “—make sure to do it in one clean move. Or otherwise, without blood involved.”

    Summary

    Rook had lived a peaceful, relatively secluded life in the Grand Necropolis. It had been that way for years, long enough that she thought she'd finally found her purpose. But good things never last, do they? Somewhere along a series of never-ending missteps, she found herself in charge of a team tasked with taking down two escaped elven gods.

    For someone who claimed to not believe in fate, there were entirely too many things that had to go wrong in order to bring her face-to-face with the man who would end up changing her life. With the help of Lucanis and the spirit possessing him, the mysteries of her past start fitting together. But sometimes remembering hurts worse than the unanswered questions ever did.

    --------
    AKA I created a head-canon for this Rook that consumed my thoughts, so I started writing it out, and then it kept changing and evolving, eventually turning into a novel length fic. Follows a handful of key in-game events, but focuses on lots of additional "in-between" interactions that better develop the relationship between Rook and Lucanis. (Expect slight canon divergences)

    Summary

    Two years after the Inquisition had disbanded, the former Inquisitor Eloise Trevelyan is visiting her old friends in Antiva to celebrate Josephine’s marriage. What she should have expected, but was nevertheless shocked by, was Thom Rainier, her Blackwall. She might be happy to see him after so long, if she wasn't already arranged to marry another Fereldan noble. What happens when they haven't been able to forget each other since they split, and spend the whole week of Antivan wedding festivities in miserable longing, certain that the love is gone and can't return?

    Full of Thom being cagey, Inky being snarky, and the Inner Circle inner circling. Enjoy!

    Summary

    Step 1: steal the ledger.
    Step 2: don’t get caught.
    Step 3: definitely don’t fall for the charming disaster distracting the ushers.
    Step 4: fail steps 2 & 3

    Rook’s just trying to burn a slaver’s list; Illario’s just trying not to think about the way she says his name. The opera ends in blood, lies, and maybe, if they live through the curtain call, something worth keeping.

    Summary

    "Lucanis Dellamorte,” he said with a casual air about him. Like he wasn’t the man who had fucked her senseless on the docks nearly a year ago. His eyes lingered on her for a fraction of a second, just long enough to twist her stomach into knots. But then, his gaze shifted to Neve with a charmingly cool effect.

    For a moment, Rook wondered if he truly didn’t recognize her. There wasn’t even a flicker of familiarity in his face, only that guarded and smooth allure that made her bite her lip. She tried to shake off the pang of disappointment, forcing herself to focus on the mission, but damn, it stung. He doesn’t remember. And it’s better that way, she told herself, trying to smother the rush of excitement she had felt upon seeing him.

    Summary

    "Look, kid, this isn't exactly how I pictured my afternoon going, but here we are." The dwarf approaches you with an easy smirk on his face.

    "Y'know, you're not the first somniari I've crossed paths with. Remind me to tell you about Feynriel. Good kid, considering all the shit that happened to him." He shakes his head fondly, voice quiet.

    "You don't have to trust me, he didn't at first either. But if you can get us out of here, I can help." There's a sparkle in his brown eyes that makes you desperately want to believe him.
