When the senior necromancer has the most tender and wholesome romance scenes and lines of the game....He's truly a well developed character with a true respect and love for all things alive and dead. I was surprised with how much I enjoyed his character just a sweet soul and a warm friend.
He is the best written character of the companions. His romance is also nicely developed. Emmrich is gentlemanly, friendly, full of passion, but he also has his fears. It is great how he can talk and talk about what interests him. He also respects his work, values experience, friendships and has well-written dialogues. He is also older than standard, it is rare for a companion in this type of game to be 50 years old. But age does not take anything away from him, it is what adds to his charm, I cannot imagine him otherwise. He is brilliant.
Thanks a lot! Even though the CC provides lots of freedom it somehow restricted me. Maybe I got overwhelmed by options and had to figure out what to do to come even come close to what I wanted to create. Dx
Since they remark in the game that Rook is a "teen" or very young, this is absolutely disgusting. Who thought of making the protagonist cannonly young without making it possible to let them be old like in every other game, then exclusily give out old or balding romances. Like wtf. This feels so wrong. I mean they DID say it was going to be inclusive, but this ain't the right way. It's sad too cause Emmrich is cool but he shoud not date a freakign teenage girl
Hm, I read someone saying that Rook is around 25? No clear age is given. Besides that Varric calls multiple characters in a rather diminutive way, being an older dwarf himself :D But even so... Rook is your personal character in your personal fantasy and a lot of audience, me including are around 30 or more and I definitely dont imagine myself as a teenage girl while playing. Should people around Emmrich's age not play the game at all? So for me, this wasn't weird since age gaps exist, elves live longer and well... It is our personal stories however we imagine them. Take solace in the fact that Emmrich worries about him being older later on :>
@gemris9516 precisely, my Rook is even older than me I always wanted female older characters to have a more prominent place in fantasy and action media because I realizes that it was (growing up) a representative notion that women above a certain age wouldn't make good main action or fantasy characters. that fortunately has changed, but it's still not common, especially in fantasy books that are completely overrun with teen or very young adult main female characters. Also people forget that Varric wasn't a spring chicken anymore and basically anyone younger than him he tends to calls kid because its just the way he acts: like a bigger brother pushing you to do the best you can !(irl I have friends that call me kid but are just a couple of years older).
Not everyone's tastes have to match yours. Some part of the community likes this age difference. Finally, something has appeared in the game that will satisfy this need. And I don't find it disgusting. I like it, I love it. I love the dynamic of the relationship between an adult character and a strange young one. Why are we even discussing who should or shouldn't do what? As long as everything is observed within the framework of the law, it should be allowed and not censured. Although there is the same LGBT person in this game who is censured by some part of the world. In my country, this is generally prohibited, but at least I can build non-standard relationships in the game. The only thing I agree with you on is that the developers were too lazy and we can't choose the age of the Rook
Rook is absolutely not supposed to be a teenager. I'm confident there's no evidence of that in the game. Yes, Varric calls them 'kid', but it is a form of endearment -- the character is by no means an actual child.

He is the best, truly. I love the man. Having a wise, yet calm and intelligent character was so refreshing and his romance is so gentle.

Indeed, well said T_T!
My heart can't take it, this scene is beautifully written ❤❤
Ok I thought Lucanis was the best thing to come out of Veilguard but Emmerich really be competing here.
You can’t deny they really did a spectacular job on character creation.
On that note…this is a great Rook.
