    Summary

    Lucanis spends a sleepless night imagining Rook in another man’s bed and wakes the next morning in a mood foul enough to poison half of Treviso. Unfortunately for him, Rook has no patience for jealous sulking, evasive answers, or men who run from their own feelings.

    If Lucanis wants her, he will have to stop pretending otherwise.

    Summary

    After a chance encounter a year before Solas’s ritual, Rook did not imagine meeting her dance partner again, let alone him becoming a valuable member of her team. Now she must navigate saving the world and the excited feeling she gets anytime her Crow companion looks at her.

    Lucanis thought he finally went crazy as he stared at her -at the woman he thought about every waking hour he could between his escape plans. Lucanis also thought he could never fail a job. Now he must figure out his toughest contract yet, under the command of the most beautiful woman he has ever seen while sharing his body with a demon she can apparently hear too.

    Summary

    Lucanis exhales, low and rough, and his fingers dig into her hips as he leans down to press his mouth to her ear. "You’d look perfect like that," he murmurs, his voice like gravel dragged over silk. "So swollen with me you wouldn’t be able to hide it. Everyone would know you are mine, that you carry what is mine."

    Lucanis fills Rook up until it takes.

    Summary

    He didn’t know what to say or how to make her understand. There were so many things he wanted to tell her, but the words eluded him. He was afraid he had already ruined it by panicking. That she was still here was a miracle.
    Finally, she faced him, a rueful smile on her face. “Listen, Lucanis, if you’re not interested, you can just say it. I’ll be disappointed, but I promise I won’t try to kill you.”
    Through gritted teeth, he said, “It is not a lack of interest.”

    From the moment they met at a masquerade ball, Nadia de Riva knew that Lucanis Dellamorte was her true love. Her unceasing affection charmed him and though he fell after she did, he fell harder than he could have possibly imagined. However, since being separated for a year after Lucanis was taken to the Ossuary, they will have to come to terms how they have changed in their time apart and navigate the complications their relationship adds to their mission to take down the gods.
    A canon-divergent Veilguard story, about my Crow Rook and her romance with Lucanis, both before and during the game.

    Summary

    It seemed like a fair trade. How hard could a prison break be, compared to taking on a couple of gods.

    "So is this Calivan contract one of those 'I have to do it myself' things?" she asked casually.

    Electricity crackled around them, close enough the hair on Lucanis's arms and neck lifted. Lightning struck the ground, hitting the guards and Calivan in turn. First one round, then another, and a third. The smell of burnt flesh reached his nose and electricity danced on the puddles of standing water that dotted the floor.

    Spite appeared in his mirror form on the other side of her. He leaned forward, head tilted as if studying her. "Smells of lavender and lightning," he purred. "Storm beneath the skin." He leaned closer, as if sniffing her. "I LIKE her."

    Lucanis tried to ignore him, telling himself it was probably better the demon liked her than the alternative.

    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.

    Sequel to my one-shot Mierda

    Summary

    The exceedingly awkward courtship of Lucanis Dellamorte (assassin, virgin, workaholic, romance novel enthusiast) and Rigela 'Rook' Ingellvar (bug appreciator, necromancy scholar, culinary experimenter) is complicated by increased exposure to the Fade and the creeping influence of an Elven god in Rook's head opening up a whole new world: spirit talking. Spite is thrilled, Lucanis is horrified, and Rook is getting very mixed signals from her new Crow companion.

    Summary

    The two members of the veilguard who dont tend to sleep find comfort in eachother out in the forests of Arlathan. Nightmares make for late nights and fraught emotional states - it's a good thing they both have somebody to talk to.

    What happens when you put two emotionally distant, touch starved, sleep deprived people who are hopelessly in love with eachother ( but wont do anything about it ) on a dock alone by a lake?

    Summary

    Kore Mercar had grown up a slave; not that her own mind would believe so. A fateful rebellion aided by the Shadow Dragons would prove to be her way out. She hovered the unforgiving streets of Minrathous like a ghost for months before deciding to join them. Just when she finally began opening up, Nessus happened, and she felt like she was back to square zero. Despite everything, she embarked on a new adventure with Varric and the Veilguard; on the measly quest of saving the world against her Gods.

    Although Rook was a mage, it was a famed Demon who would become her comfort.

    Summary

    Phoenix “Rook” Mercar's life has been one giant struggle. The moment she starts to think she has found her place in the world, joining the team of one of the people who first rescued her, everything goes to shit. Now she has to deal with THREE stuck-up, complete assholes of Elvhen Gods and not panic at how a pair of chocolate brown eyes were starting to make her feel…human again. Has she seen those eyes before?

    Lucanis Dellamorte has always been the golden child. The one his beloved grandmother pushed the hardest to be the best damn Crow out there. For him, it was business first. Small pleasantries were acceptable, but long-term entanglement? Love other than family? No. One Crow already proved how bad that is for your reputation. But then he gets captured, tortured, a spirit that turns demon inside him, and experimented on for a year. He tells himself the moment he gets out of here he will do what HE wants. “Love”, however, could never be on the table for him, especially not now. But flirting? He's watched his cousin do that for decades. Nothing wrong with continuing quick passions. Yet…those ruby eyes of a distant memory make it real hard for him to think of her as nothing more than a curiosity.

    Summary

    Just another take on a love story between Crow!Rook and Lucanis Dellamorte/Spite. Will follow the events of the entire game, and maybe some time after! There will be lotssss of smut. Kinda slow-burn, mostly not, idk you be the judge. Lucanis actively pursues Neve if you don't romance him, and I'd like him to be the pursuer of Rook/have a more mutual take on their love, much earlier romance establishment (immediately after the blighted dragons with flirting from the get-go). Mind the tags for triggers! Will update tags as the story progresses, and I will include warnings in the notes of smut chapters.

    TEMPORARY HIATUS - UPDATES TO RESUME IN 2027!

    -

    "Lucanis pressed a hand over his eyes once Rook was gone, unable to ignore the weight of how badly he wanted her. Spite was tangled in his thoughts again, and he couldn’t discern which desires were his, and which were the demon’s. Perhaps they were one and the same, their combined desperation to touch and be touched by her. He was lost in a torrential downpour of illicit fantasies as he retreated to his pantry, determined to get ahold of himself."

    Summary

    What if Illario's betrayal cut deeper than anyone imagined? Childhood friends in the streets of Treviso, he'd always harbored feelings for Rook, feelings she never returned. Now, watching her fall for his cousin, years of unrequited longing have twisted into something darker. Blood magic wasn't just his weapon against Spite but became the chains binding Rook to his will, a final desperate act to claim what he believes was always meant to be his.

    "You took what he wanted most in this world..."

    Now Lucanis faces an impossible choice: embrace the First Talon's mantle he never wanted, or watch helplessly as Illario's dangerous fixation destroys the woman he's come to love. With Rook trapped by forces beyond her control and time running out, Lucanis must navigate his own reluctant feelings while orchestrating the most personal rescue of his life before his cousin's obsession consumes them all.

    Summary

    A year before the Veilguard was assembled, two souls shared a perfect night together and promised to see each other again. But tomorrow never came.

    Ceres never expected to be reunited with the man who made her heart stutter. She certainly never thought she'd find him in an underwater prison and now hosting a particularly tricksy demon. Lucanis never thought he'd be confronted with the one promise he broke. The one contract he never completed. But Crows always complete their contracts. And Rooks aren't afraid of a challenge.

    My take on the romance that could have been! Rook has a backstory and family, and Lucanis has it bad...enjoy!

    Summary

    I was bummed by the lack of Lucanis romance in the game, so I'm doing it here! <3

    Bound by fate and the secrets of the Crows, Rook and Lucanis find themselves on a collision course with a war that threatens to tear Thedas apart. As they fight side by side, the walls between them begin to crack, revealing unspoken truths, shared scars, and a growing connection that neither can afford to embrace.

    But the life of a Crow is never free of danger, and love comes at a cost. When duty, betrayal, and the fate of Thedas hang in the balance, will they survive the shadows that hunt them—and the ones they cast themselves?

    Follows DAV Story with some changes.
