We define stacks of uniform cyclic covers of Brauer–Severi schemes, proving that they can be realized as quotient stacks of open subsets of representations, and compute the Picard group for the open substacks parametrizing smooth uniform cyclic covers. Moreover, we give an analogous description for stacks parametrizing triple cyclic covers of Brauer–Severi schemes of rank 1 that are not necessarily uniform, and give a presentation of the Picard group of the substacks corresponding to smooth triple cyclic covers.
