I love his hands. In all the ways. The Professor knows how to put his anatomy lessons to practical use.

A personal grievance with Ficbook: this drawing didn’t make it past moderation because of its “sexual content.”

Day 3/page 3 #EMMRICHWEEK2025
Grief | Thanatophobia

Laelia expands on why she was uncomfortable with necromancy when she and Emmrich first met, and the two idly talk about the comfort the necropolis brings while the two walk towards the Memorial Gardens.

{ #nixmoriarty | #DragonAge | #Emmrich }

Emmrich and Laelia (Rook) from Dragon Age the Veilguard walk through the Vault of the Beloved. The composition is zoomed out, with Emmrich and Laelia fairly small, walking hand-in-hand away from the viewer. The composition focuses more on the scale of the hall they’re in, with large skeletal statues lining the walkway. The lighting is dark, getting lighter and foggier the further down the hall, with a splash of light on a staircase leading down a path on the right. A number of wisps float high above the pair.

Dialogue: (forgive the caps, but this page is dialogue heavy and I’m copying from the page. They are not, in fact, yelling. Their speaking tones are likely relatively soft.)

Laelia: LOSS IS SUCH A PAINFUL THING.
I DIDN’T UNDERSTAND HOW ANYONE COULD SURROUND THEMSELVES WITH REMINDERS OF IT EVERYDAY.

Emmrich: IT MAY SEEM MORBID TO THE UNFAMILIAR, BUT OUR TRIBUTES TO THE DEAD ARE AN AFFIRMATION OF LIFE.
THEY ARE REMINDERS TO LIVE OUR LIVES WELL AND TO MAKE THE MOST OF OUR TIME WHILE HERE

Laelia: AS WELL AS THE COMFORT THAT OUR LIVES ARE REMEMBERED WHEN
WE’RE GONE.

Emmrich: QUITE SO, MY LOVE.
WE ARE NEITHER OF US
STRANGERS TO THE DREAD OF OBLIVION. BUT IT GLADDENS MY HEART YOU'VE GROWN TO FIND SOLACE IN THE NECROPOLIS.

This ended up being the toughest task of #wemmrichweek, even though it was the first idea I had. Thinking about Emmrich’s fear of death, and how many times he must have endured the loss of loved ones… it makes today a hard day

Show me how you draw armor! 🛡️

Scan of a painting showing a man in armor drawing his sword. the background is bright blue

digital illustration: Pictured is a knight in full armour, bar helmet. their hair is long and dark and they have curling horns on their head. They face away from the viewer, looking into a stylized nightsky with a crescent moon. The frame of the image contains thorned rose bramble, parrying daggers and an illustration in each corner: a weeping skull on the left and a armoured gauntlet holding a rose on the right.

An illustration of a knight facing to the right. They are clad in silver armour, and carry a shield with trans pride colours, which shows a unicorn and the slogan 'Resist, rejoice, remember'. Additionally there is a trans pride coloured decoration on their helmet. The image is framed with a border of dandelion and hanging pride flags.

Day 2: Curiosity

I’ve often thought about how Emmrich could have met Manfred 20 years ago, back when he was just a small flame, and how it later evolved into a lasting bond

It’s #EMMRICHWEEK2025 !!!

I’ve made a fan comic, where each page was based (sometimes loosely) on the daily prompts, woven into a very self-indulgent and flufftacular story, featuring my Rook: Laelia Aldwir. I’ll post 1-2 pages a day!

Day 1: #Necromancy

{ #nixmoriarty | #DragonAge }

Emmrich from Dragon Age the Veilguard performs necromancy to animate a skull. Painting style is based on Leyendecker’s art deco character paintings, with very warm tones and a black background. Emmrich’s hands are raised, with turquoise magic flowing through his figures and through ye skull, which is levitating to about chest high. He stands in front of a podium, with candles to the left, and a pile of skulls sitting on a red cloth to the right.

In the cover version of this illustration, there is the comic title “Adoration” with the subtitle “A Fan Comic By Nixmori.”

The first page of the comic has a very limited color palette, with the background in blue/gray and Emmrich and Laelia in monochrome warm tones to stand out from the background. Their speech bubbles are a light pink for her, a light green for him.

She says: “I do love watching you work.”
He appears surprised in the first panel: “Oh! Darling—you’re early!”
She is sat on a railing, with pillars next to her covered in vines. Wisps dance playfully around her. She replies: “Hehe… pardon me, if I startled you. I was just enjoying the view.”

When I say “old,” it’s purely tongue-in-cheek 😏 I adore him at every stage of his life

I often imagine what Emmrich was like years ago. In his 40s, he still feels a little daring to me, the kind of man who might have lit up a cigarette now and then.

I picture Emmrich rising early and dozing off by evening, while Adora is a night owl. Since their routines don’t align, they often end up simply sitting together, watching their loved one sleep.
