Underlucius is a fan writer who has written stories in Harry Potter and various other fandoms. She writes original fiction under the name Erastes. Most of her work is NSFW and includes ships such as Lucius Malfoy/Harry Potter, Severus Snape/Lucius Malfoy, and Remus Lupin/Severus Snape, making her a fan of slash and underage ships. Her social media, such as her LiveJournals, includes quite a bit about her personally identifying information, including where she went to school and the town in which she lives.

She joined Harry Potter in late 2003[1] and was active in Mary Renault fandom by 2005.[2] In July 2006, Underlucius announced that she would be stepping away from fandom.[3] She cited that the fandom communities she was in were becoming inactive and that she wanted to move onto original writing instead. As of 2020 her old LiveJournals remain inactive, but she is active on Twitter and posts quite a bit about The Archers, a BBC radio soap opera. She links her personal website on her Twitter bio, however the website comes up as can't be reached. It must be viewed via Wayback Machine, with its latest archive being from Mar 1, 2019. This website appears to advertise books Underlucius has had published, such as JUNCTION X, a story about an adult man falling in love with a seventeen year old boy.[4]

Do you like gay historical fiction? Do you love the idea of men loving men in times when wearing lace and brocade wasn’t just for ballroom dancers and that men walking arm in arm together wasn’t at all unusual? Do you want to read about English men who are almost too repressed to tell each other how they feel and have to do it very privately anyway? Well you are in the right place!
