Introducing: Lilura Brosca

I’d be appalled if I saw you Ever try to be a saint

Lilura Brosca is a casteless dwarf from Orzammar, the underground city where all dwarves live, specifically from Dust Town, where all of the poorest and more desperate citizens live. She is the youngest child to Kalah Brosca, and the younger half sister to Rica, who cares for her after Lilura’s father vanished to the surface and Kalah ended up delving into severe alcoholism to cope with the pain of being abandoned by the man she thought she was going to marry. For many years, Lilura and Rica earned their keep by sweeping the streets, until they were found and hired on by Beraht, a merchants’ caste who runs a black market gang on the side.

For each sibling, he gives them a job; Rica’s only job is to be as beautiful and appealing as possible so that she may lure in a noble and bear them a son so that the whole family, including Beraht, could be elevated to nobility. Lilura, however beautiful, was put to work as extra muscle for Beraht, as she lacked Rica’s grace and talent for charisma; Lilura quickly becomes good friends and lovers with Leske, a fellow muscle for Beraht, and they work together on many jobs with ease.

When Lilura is nineteen years old, her life is upended when, during the Proving event, she is tasked by Beraht to try and drug a warrior caste’s drink so that the warrior Beraht is betting good coin on will win, only to discover that Everd Bera is totally and completely drunk, thus making him unable to compete, much less win. Desperate to protect her sister, Lilura dons Everd’s armor, helps Leske poison the competition’s water to give herself an edge and she enters the Proving herself; she wins several fights against warriors with far more training and seniority, before she is found out as being an imposter when a drunken Everd stumbles into the arena to expose her. She and Leske are thrown into prison, and then transferred to Beraht’s territory for him to kill them himself.

Rather than take that lying down, Lilura and Leske quickly escape, killing everyone who comes across their path, and they battle Beraht until he, too, falls to Lilura’s dagger. Upon escaping his hide out, they are accosted briefly by the authorities, only for Duncan of the Grey Wardens to offer a place for Lilura, effectively recruiting her on the spot.

Lilura is a hot headed individual who’s very ambitious, and she doesn’t take anything lying down. Rather her gruff demeanor can cause others to think of her as rude, but to her she considers being half-assed makes her weak, but she is an effective leader for the Grey Wardens after Duncan’s unfortunate demise.

Lilura is, like many dwarves, short and stocky in nature, with black eyes and vibrant orange hair, with a casteless tattoo on her right cheek. She has a chip in one of her canine teeth that she got after a hard fight with some guards when she was a few years younger.

Tag Game: First Spoken Lines

I will take advantage of @zmlorenz’s open tag because this looks like fun, so thank you for that!

Rules: Post the first spoken lines of the main characters of your WIP.

This may get a little long (and when I say long I mean long), but I’ll be using Puppet Kingdom’s second draft and all the ‘main’ characters introduced so far and in the order they’re introduced.

-----

Althaia Nereil

“Kadison, how long until we reach the capital?” I ask her, mostly out of something to say than actual curiosity. 

Kadison Nereil 

Kadison sighs and gives me a pointed look. “Just like the last five times you asked, we should arrive this afternoon.”

Meira Nereil

“Bandits?” She gasps, looking half-startled, half-excited, and half-asleep.

Novalie (last name undetermined)

“You’re here!” Novalie’s unmistakable voice rings out, infected with happiness.

Kairos Shen

“We are both glad to hear it, then,” a new, unmistakably masculine voice says.

Marigold ‘Goldie’ Aguero

“-Rynold Section, there seem to be a few less of you posted outside, we need to make sure all parts of the castle are secured.” There was a short woman on the front with her hands on her hips.

Taisia Lagunov and Naida Kamenev

“Dame Emile! Dame Emile!” Two in-sync voices chirp behind us, one dry and refined, the other deep and slower.

Royal Sabourin

“If it isn’t my darling, favorite, quintessential courtier,” he grins, waving an arm and bowing deeply.

Cirillo Lacolle

“...What scampers around but makes no sound, is smooth and cold, chills your flesh to the bone and comes back when it goes away?” Someone muses to themself beside me.

Lilura Laviolette

“Did you get those over there, Z?” The older one asks, gesturing vaguely to the side.

Zerenity Shen

The little girl looks over her shoulder. “Yes, and the geraniums too, like you asked. Ooh, look at those white carnations! They’re Prince Remy’s favorites!”

Prince Dragomir ‘Remy’ XIV

Prince Remy perks up at his title before cocking his head to the side. “Goldie, who is this?”

High Lady Keeper Avyanna Binette

“Captain Aguero, please announce the accused to the court,” Avyanna says. Her voice is a contradiction; light but burdened, awake but weary.

-----

Again, long, but thankfully, once all their introductions are out of the way, it’s smooth sailing. :)

I will leave an open tag and officially tag whoever has made it this far and would like to do this!

Lilura Radenovic Aesthetic

“Talk about it?” 

haha, no no, I prefer to internalize all of my problems so they eat away at me from the inside until I am unable to function in anyway.

DA Muse Headcanons

Thalia’s name is pronounced Ta-LEE-uh. Partially named after the Greek Muse for poetry and comedy, her name means “flourishing”, and she lives up to it every single day, both as a Cousland, and as Ferelden’s future Queen with King Alistair, as well as the Hero of Ferelden.

Ariadne feels awful for snitching on Jowan. She believed so much in the Circle and the Chantry, she wanted to believe that the Templars knew best. Instead, she lost her best friend, she betrayed a girl who was just helplessly in love, and she was taken away from the only home she had ever known. Before she finds Jowan in Redcliffe, she spends almost every day wondering what might have happened if she had genuinely helped without telling Irving.

Lilura cannot remember a time in which her mother didn’t hate her. Rica raised her own sister, and Lilura always wanted to repay Rica for that. She hated being involved with Beraht, but she thought that if they could be lifted to nobility, then she stood a chance at doing everything she ever wanted to do for Rica. She regrets never getting that chance, not until she becomes a Grey Warden and becomes the Hero.

Avery always felt that the rivalry with Carver was one sided; he loved his brother, would bend over backwards for that boy, but the older they became, the more Carver became resentful. Since Avery’s main verse is as a rogue, he blames himself for the rest of his life for Carver’s death, wondering if his brother died hating him, if maybe they would have had a chance to repair their relationship after escaping to Kirkwall.

Asher always felt like an outsider in his own clan; he was often getting into trouble and being yelled at by the Keeper, or being lectured by his hunting peers. His mother loved him, he had no doubt, but she sadly died a few years before the explosion of the Conclave, so there was nothing to keep Asher within the clan after he was sent off to be a spy, and ended up becoming the Herald of Andraste and the Inquisitor instead. He feels no regret for leaving his clan, though he does miss the wilds of the Free Marches.
