Summary
The world ended, but the music never stopped.
Evelyn “Evie” Trevelyan wakes up in the Wasteland with a Pip-Boy on her wrist, a hole in her memory, and a radioactive storm at her heels. What begins as a desperate search for shelter leads her straight into the ruins of a forgotten Vault—and into the path of a signal that shouldn’t exist.
An ancient evil is stirring beneath the irradiated sands, hijacking old-world radio stations and twisting long-dead voices into sermons of devotion and doom. Its message: Behold the will that is Corypheus

Summary
This is an AU/Fix-it wherein DATV comes from the same lineage of politics as the previous three games. I'm attempting to maintain the general story of DATV within that framework but, as respecting the previous games' lore is The Point, there are some fairly robust changes.
Updates every other day. 200k and finished.

Summary
It’s not every day that one of your best friends is crowned ‘Voice of the Maker in Thedas’, her Perfection, leader of the Southern Chantry but no matter how disruptive to wedding planning it may be you can’t not attend.
And the fact that the rest of the great and the good from across Thedas are also attending does present a rare and wonderful opportunity to introduce the Queen-to-be to all of them in one fell swoop.
Despite the fact that swooping is bad.
But really – what could possibly go wrong?

Summary
Fix-it for Solavellan and Rook romances in Dragon Age: Veilguard. DAV is not canon.
Eight years after Trespasser, a couple of days before Veilguard.
Lavellan has retreated to the Temple of Mythal as the bearer of The Well of Sorrows. Still kept up to date by her contacts and understanding the gravity of the future. Probably better than almost anyone else. Determined to stay out of it, she gets a letter from her baby sib, Rook. Who is just about to go after Solas with Varric and some detective from Tevinter. Lavellan can't leave her sib to face Solas alone. But she'd rather retreat to the fade forever than face her lost love.
She's moved on and has a loving relationship with Abel'as. She's cared for as the Bel'len'a'ris Ghi'lan'a, The Guide to Eternal Knowledge. She and her beloved have been trying for a child. It is not the time to go haring off into the north of Thedas to confront an elf who never listened to her before.
Lavellan is faced with the choice of trying to help save the world again or staying where she's safe and loved. If she goes, she has a very slight chance of helping Solas survive taking down the veil, and keeping her baby sib alive long enough to get into even more trouble.

Summary
A series of short fanfics surrounding my personal Rook Nimue de Riva, and her relationship with Lucanis Dellamorte. May contain some OOC behavior for certain characters, but most of this is my own headcanon concerning said character(s).
Most chapters will be Teen rated, with a few that might have some more suggestive themes included. I try to post them in chronological order, but at some point they might be out of order. If so, it will be noted at the start of the chapter when they take place.Updates every Friday until completion

A Clerk from Crestwood by LostPipersChild

Summary
“But I’m just a clerk!” Evie cried. “I’m nothing, a nobody.”
“And Andraste was an Alamarri tribeswoman captured and enslaved by the Tevinter Imperium. Nobody is a nobody in the eyes of the Maker,” Leliana countered.
Solas carefully crafted his plan over millennia whilst he floated in uthenera, but no plan survives first contact with the enemy. And falling for a human was never part of the plan. Every day his companions refuse to remain faceless abstracts, they are loud, they are bright, they are real, Evelyn of Crestwood more so than any of them.

Summary
Rook doesn’t know what she’s doing. That’s the secret, not that it can be much of one, these days. She hasn’t known in a long time. And somehow, anyway, she’s here—shoulder to shoulder with the last Wardens left in the world, standing against the blight come to finally swallow it.
Inexplicably, absurdly—she’s the one who’s supposed to tell them what to do next.

Summary
She had heard bits and pieces about him, mostly from the Breakfast Ladies who still speculated about his past. Was he a Dalish reject? A city elf with a dark past? A former slave of Tevinter, trained as an apprentice by a powerful and benevolent magister who freed him upon their death? Josephine liked that theory and Cassandra looked rather proud of it before admitting it was far from what Solas himself shared during interrogation. Aevina didn’t contribute her own thoughts on the matter because—
Mythal, those shoulders. His neck. And his calming presence…which was also very imposing, now that he stood a staff’s length away from her. And a kind face with an expression that was difficult to read. And—and—where was I?
“You called, da’lan?”
His voice had an edge to it; annoyance?
“Forgive me,” he continued. “I was quite confused by the hand motions. I thought you were gesturing to something else.” His grey eyes were cold. “A nug, perhaps?”This fanfic expands on the Dragon Age: Inquisition canon to include character studies, more friendship and found-family fluff, and more angst. Updates 2x-3x weekly, unravels slowly, sprouts wings and flies off a cliff!

Summary
Rowan sits bolt upright, blood rushing to her brain, and nearly loses consciousness again.
“Varric?”
She looks around. She’s not in Minrathous. She’s not in the Lighthouse. She’s in a small wooden hut, the Frostback chill seeping in through the thick pine walls and competing for dominance with the heat of the fire crackling in the fireplace.
She’s in Haven. 9:41 Dragon. She traveled through space and time, arriving not at Arlathan before Solas’s ritual, but at the Ferelden Conclave, just to be blown up, hurtled back into the Fade she’d so recently escaped from and then out again, now marked by god magic.
Fuck.
When Rook discovers that time travel exists - and her friend Dorian helped pioneer it - she begs him for a favor: send her back to the ritual so she might save her mentor and friend, Varric, from Fen'Harel's knife. Dorian sends her back, all right - eleven years back, to the moment everything went to hell and the Herald of Andraste was born.

Lavellan clenched her teeth.
Her whole body trembled, her muscles locking against the current of raw Fade twisting through her.
She felt like she was being burned from the inside out, and all she could do was hold on.
The rift buckled.

Summary
Fenris would love nothing more than to forget his past and Garret Hawke might just be the man who could help with that. He tries his best to pull away, but the gravitation just might pull him back again. Can he forget his past, or will he be swallowed by the revenge and insecurities? Only time will show.
Inspired by Danarius's words during "Alone"-questline. "Do I detect a note of jealousy? Not surprising. The lad is rather skilled, isn’t he?" Happens after Act 2's "Questioning Beliefs"-quest.
Mostly told from Fenris's POV, going through Act 2.

Summary
A collection of letters, notes, and half-finished thoughts addressed to Rook de Riva — some never meant to be read, others aching to be understood. Between the lines, a story unfolds: of bonds forged in silence and of memories too sharp to forget.
