Summary
Cullen Rutherford's worst enemy and greatest asset is his own mind. Addicted to lyrium and dangerously, stupidly in love with the Herald of Andraste, it has sometimes tortured him, but it has always gotten him through. Until now. Haven is on fire, a demigod is stalking them, the Inquisition's war is about to kick off for real, and all he has to keep himself sane enough to survive is a beat up old journal.
Updated weekly!
The lovely people that have read it have said:
"I am so excited to read and reread and rereread this."
"Just love it. Absolutely superb....So delightfully poignant and painful."
"The tension! The action! The mystery! This gave me all of the Big Feelings. Bravo! 💗💗💗"
"super impressed with the depth and nuance of your insight."
"your characterization is spot on and TICKLES me."
“…if it's not official canon, it should be.”
“chills.”
“HELL. YEAH!”
“Heart-wrenching.”
“So good!”
“Absolutely incredible. Words fail me.”
“Wow! I can’t accurately express how beautifully this all rolls together now. Amazing.”
“Utterly devastated. This one was so beautiful.”

Summary
Carlo was brought to the world of Thedas - trapped in a forest and found by a Dalish clan. Unable to get home with suspicion cast upon him by many others, he finds he has little to do other than survive. However, he learns that he had been brought to Thedas several weeks before the events of the Conclave: weeks before the events of Inquisition take place.
With the knowledge that he holds, he can either roll along and play things safe, or use what he knows to change things for the better. However, things are much easier said than done - especially in a world like Thedas.

Summary
Anders should have known better than to allow Hawke to sweet-talk him into a Bone Pit trip with her and Merrill. Historically, such things have never gone well. And when a very convincing spirit is offering to light the way, Anders shouldn’t have been surprised that giving into temptation was only a matter of time.

Summary
Vampire AU.
What if the demon coiled within Lucanis Dellamorte's soul wasn't Spite, but something far more primal?
Implanted by the Venatori as a cruel experiment, Hunger is a constant, gnawing void. It's a torment Lucanis manages to contain through sheer will, until Rook saves him.
Now, her warmth, her life, her very scent is all the demon craves. Keeping his distance is a battle, but the real war begins the night she offers her neck, not in fear, but in trust.

Summary
A young Dalish elf, her head bandaged, walks along the road. She's picked up by a kindly family of traveling performers.
I'm not sure how well I have portrayed childhood trauma in this.
I have attempted to note content warnings for each section.
I think the only aspect which isn't strictly canon in this story is that Elvhen isn't a dead language; I will try to indicate when it is being spoken with italics.
Non-canon episode is here: https://ao3-rd-18.onrender.com/works/48017557
Latest update: 2025.09.05. New Chapter 27 added. No further updates planned (though I've updated four times since deciding it's "done")

Summary
Solas couldn't help it, this titan drone was talking to him. Had helped him, wanted to help him more; and he didn't even detect a hint of pity in the other's voice. A wrecked laugh boiled over in his chest. The children of stone had the right to despise him just as much if not more than his mortal kindred; and fate had sent him a kindhearted dwarf.
A terrible irony that had him doubling over—oh, he needed to stop; his insides hurt too badly.
A hand settled, gently, on his shoulder, startling the elf. Varric was looking at him like he was mad—and in all fairness he felt absolutely stark raving. His laughs turned to hiccups and perhaps sobs, but—but the dwarf was warm.

Summary
After the Fade kiss, Solas has taken some time to think. Luella tries her best not to push, but he seems hell-bent on pulling her in all the same.
Each stolen peck at him deprived her of a sentence at the end, each brush against his lips or hand against his hips that rendered him quiet with the delicious flush of a ripe peach, stole something of their conversations, moved her to stay up until the small hours of the night, until both of them were too tired to navigate the clumsy ritual of parting for bedtime. She wanted to split him, multiply him, multiply herself—a pair of them could kiss forever, a pair of them could talk forever, a pair of them could finally fall silent and exist.

Summary
The end of the long battle against Corypheus draws near. Dorian, however, cannot bring himself to be swept up in the excitement. Too much weighs on his mind; doubts, worries, and fears. Such things spell ill omens for a mage. They sneak into his mind, whispers of Desire, and Dorian finds himself terrified that he cannot resist. The worst demon, however, did not reside in the Fade at all. He was down there, in Skyhold's courtyard, training. Grey muscles glistening with sweat, black horns long and proud... How much Dorian's refined tastes had been degraded in the barbaric South left a bitter taste in his mouth. How much longer would he be able to resist temptation?
