Made a tiny animation of Emmerich
flame of his heart
His cute expression when Rook first started flirting tho…
We as a fandom have collectively decided that
not only does Emmrich Volkarin fuck
Emmrich Volkarin fucks like it's his job
Even his tamest ao3 backstories have a throwaway "back in the day when I got laid six nights a week and only because I needed Sundays to meal prep" line. I read a one shot this fic where my man had lugged an entire Adam and Eve checkout cart to the Lighthouse with him to keep in a drawer Just In Case.
Emmrich is occasionally nervous, but only because Rook turns off his brain cells or he's worried about the age gap. Once he gets started he knows what he's doing and how and where and exactly how many times and Evanuris help you if you thought you were getting out of there south of four orgasms. Sorry, dearest, a gentleman has standards.
Emmrich heard of the Kinsey scale once and lit it on fire.
He's not a rake or a fuckboy. He's not sleazy. He doesn't lie or manipulate, and he doesn't kiss and tell. Emmrich is never, ever in horny jail. Emmrich stormed the horny Bastille and instituted a new horny constitution where everyone gets exactly the amount and kind of sex they want and if their name is Rook he will see to it personally.
And I love that for us. Well done, team.
Can we do something about it, please? 🫠
I tried... 👀
Part. 1
I like drawing comics from time to time, and I really wanted to draw this moment (beware btw, potential spoilers...?). I'm looking forward to the part. 2 ✨
Veilguard Tumblr Stats: The Results
In December I ran a Google Form looking to compare the official Bioware player statistics to those of the tumblr fandom. I received 3031 unique responses, and am now making the results available to you! This was a solo endeavor and I'm so grateful to every single one of you for your participation! All I ask in return is that we keep it positive: this was a fun project, let's keep it that way!
The results are in graphic form under the cut (alt text is available for every graphic). I have also captioned them with the official Bioware stats for comparison purposes where applicable. You can view the raw data in the form of a Google Sheet here. Please note that these results contain major endgame spoilers.
Thank you again, please reblog for reach!

I don’t know what’s been in the water these past 2-3 days, but the Emmrook gang is THIRSTY AS HELL over on AO3. I’m so profoundly grateful for all the filthy, debased smut y’all are throwing my way. Like, truly, thank you for your service. LMFAO
We’ve all been collectively possessed by the Demon of Horniness. Love that for us.

Emmrich Corpse Whispering
"Let flame rekindle your sight. Let breath and light rise again."
I wanted to try a young Emmrich based on this artwork...
what it feels like to take emmrich and davrin with you as your team
it's basically just emmrich 'gentle parenting' volkarin vs davrin 'tough love' the warden
Different dads, different techniques
i love them. and this art is perfect. thank you.
Some facts about Emmrich (and also the Necropolis, Nevarra and other related things) gathered from the banters
I went through all companion banters on DanaDuchy's channel after playing the game to write down all facts about companions/the world that I haven't seen brought up anywhere in the game as a writing reference (and for funsies).
Note: This list may not be exhaustive. I might have missed some something or didn't write it down because I considered it common knowledge. If you have anything to add, please DM me or send an ask! (do specify what banter the information is coming from, though)
Note 2: Posts from this series (mostly) don't include information from banters specific to quests or between companions and faction members. I plan to do another playthrough to capture more of those and will add any relevant info to the character posts.
Other characters' posts: Bellara, Davrin, Harding, Lucanis, Neve, Taash to be added tomorrow (or on Monday Jan 5th)
I don't think Bioware fully comprehends the absolute chaos it’s about to release by handing us, the unapologetic mage-bangers, Emmrich "well done, my dear" Volkarin after the emotional war crime that was the Solas romance.
It’s like they’re handing us an emotionally healthy daddy figure wrapped in a big ol’ “yes, praise me harder” bow and just expecting us to behave.
AO3? Oh, it’s about to be a bloodbath. A flood of unholy praise kink is going to rain down like mana from horny heaven. The poor voice actor? He’s got no idea what’s coming. Fans, barely coherent, will be sobbing in his DMs, pleading for him to record lines like, "darling, sweet thing, apple of my throbbing loins,” because suddenly that’s the only thing keeping them going.
And you just know the fics are gonna go there. We’re talking steamy, full-blown, knee-weakening sex scenes so detailed you’ll practically hear the slapping sounds through your screen. Every silver hair, every wrinkled brow is going to get worshipped like it’s the goddamn Holy Grail. Emmrich? He’s not just a mentor now, no—he’s the silver-fox sex wizard of everyone’s dirtiest, most depraved dreams.
Bioware, you’ve dragged us through the emotional meat grinder with Solas, and now you’re tossing us this emotionally sane and well-adapted snack with decades of good coping mechanisms? Oh, baby, the sex scenes are gonna be biblical. I’m talking hands-on-bookshelves, robes ripped off, candles flickering like we’re summoning a demon but, surprise, it’s just Emmrich praising your efforts in bed like you’re acing your dissertation. It's gonna be 'well done, my dear' while you’re doing ungodly things to that silver fox, and he’s stroking your hair like you just unlocked a new achievement.
Me? Oh, honey, I’ll be on the front lines like a horny general leading the charge into the unholy lands. November 1st? I’m not just showing up, I’m rolling in with a pre-written, fully locked-and-loaded stash of smut so scandalous, my Orthodox ancestors will not only crucify me—they’ll disown me in the afterlife. I’m gonna make them turn in their graves so hard, we’ll solve the energy crisis.
And let’s not get it twisted—I’m going to worship this thin, emotionally available mage like he’s the last goddamn spellcaster left in Thedas. I’m talking tongue tracing every single one of his ribs like I’m mapping out the delicate lines of a cathedral—except it’s not sacred, it’s blasphemous as fuck. Forget holy water; it’s gonna be sweat, and I’ll be so deep into my thirst, my own character, Rook, will be doing things that’d make even the most depraved demon of desire blush. Every sliver of his body, every wrinkle, every bone—especially the bones—is getting the Rook Treatment™.
Bioware? You better brace yourself because I’m about to publish smut so audacious, so flagrantly wanton, even the Deep Roads will seem vanilla.
We’ve suffered. And now poor Emmrich’s going to be buried alive under the weight of all that… pent-up thirst. Welcome to the show, sweet necromancer.
The words of a true sage, a soothsayer.
Let’s talk about Emmrich, specifically let’s talk about flirting with him after he first joins the team because I’m seeing a lot of discourse expressing frustration that he appears unmoved by your attempts to gain his attention, except, he knows what your doing. He’s holding back and let’s explore why -
Taking a step back, let’s look at who Emmrich is in terms of that public facing persona:
A Professor, who actively teaches.
An expert in his field who is prolific enough that Bellara, a Dalish elf living in relative isolation, knows who he is.
He written books, Davrin talks about this.
He’s wealthy, wealthy enough that Harding mistakes him for nobility.
All these factors have likely won him a lot of attention. Emmrich tells you in the romantic interest scene with the skull that if your interest ‘goes beyond charming flattery’ then he’s interested in exploring that as well.
This line tells me that flirting with him, at least at the start, is something he considers transactional. He gets it a lot when people around him might try and charm him for various reasons; could be students looking for better grades, or others studying his field of expertise attempting to gain recognition from him, even, perhaps, the odd person who might view Emmrich as a possible sugar daddy (you’re all thinking it).
So, Rook rocks up, shows interest in him and he’s seen it all before - until Emmrich realises that Rook means it, the interest is genuine, no subterfuge. We see that through the gradual reciprocation of flirting; that soft line about picking extraordinary moments for compliments, the relaxing into the flirtation during the first visit after bringing out tea, showing you his magic.
He knows you’re flirting, he’s just making sure it’s genuine first.
