Alistair & Celia Headcanon Collection

Some Amell x Alistair (largely fluff) headcanons! Includes some from Origins, Warden time at Amaranthine and the Inquisition-era. Some of these I have had since my first playthrough, but others I may have read elsewhere, loved and thusly absorbed so please let me know if I can link anyone!

Origins

The first time they meet at Ostagar, Celia thinks Alistair is the most fascinating person she has ever encountered because no one in the Circle had a particularly boisterous sense of humour. Alistair is oblivious to her heart eyes, and also holds back because he’s worried she won’t survive the Joining.

Even after the Joining, Alistair tries very hard not to ~feel feelings~ despite the clear signals Celia is hurling at him because he assumes she won’t like him once she gets to know him more/she will get bored of him/ she will leave like everyone else i.e. the boy is hecking damaged.

Celia laughs obnoxiously hard at all Alistair’s jokes because a) she finds them unexpected, and b) because, like a dork, she wants to prove she gets the punch line. Alistair is perplexed by her reactions at first, and cautiously wonders if she is mocking him. Once he realises she is genuinely amused, it bolsters his ego significantly.

Celia has no concept of personal space and sits and walks very close to everyone. There wasn’t a lot of room at the Circle so she forgets she can spread out. Morrigan makes it clear she needs to back off (Celia doesn’t need telling twice) but Alistair is more relaxed and gets used to it quickly after the confusion of the first night when she blithely sets up her bedroll right next to his. Alistair assumes she is a bit scared of sleeping in the forest but really she is just accustomed to the need to cram as many apprentice bunks into a room as possible.

In a way, Alistair is also used to sharing small spaces (Chantry and Wardens) so it doesn’t bother him at all when Celia chooses to sit pressed against his side, walks so their arms bump together, or unconsciously brushes an eyelash from his cheek. He quickly grows to like her overfamiliarity (for some reason…).

Similarly, Alistair eats Celia’s leftover food if she can’t finish it or doesn’t like it, even before they’re a couple. She just offers one day and after that it becomes a given. The others side-eye them but they are happily oblivious.

Celia gets in trouble from the rest of the party for getting distracted yelling encouragement and cheering Alistair during combat. In turn, Alistair gets in trouble for turning around mid-battle to thank her when she buffs or heals him. Morrigan advises that if they are both so determined to get killed, she is more than happy to assist with hastening the process.

Celia’s mabari, Trevor, is quickly accepting of Alistair and his proximity to Celia because he observes Alistair protecting Celia in battle and thusly deems him to be a ‘good dog’ and considers that they are equals in the pack.

Alistair and Celia vandalise each other’s wanted posters whenever they come across them. It gets competitive.

Celia doesn’t really want to be in charge of saving the world but has three things working in her favour: 1) she absolutely hates letting people down 2) has an intense need to finish what she starts 3) she is in possession of a bossy streak.

That said she spends the entire Blight screaming internally to an extent not even Alistair fully grasps.

They go to the Circle Tower first, because Celia thinks she will have the best chance of getting help from people she knows and is also ‘homesick’ in the sense that she is very glad to be free of the place, but stressed enough with everything going on to crave something familiar even if she resents it. The events there devastate her. Along with the loss of friends and mentors she has known since childhood, being trapped by herself in the fade particularly terrifies her as she has never truly been alone for so long before in her life. It reminds her of the Harowing which totally blindsided her. She is very teary, untalkative and introspective for some time afterwards, but both Trevor and Alistair have the correct instinct to stay close without trying to interact with her which she finds incredibly comforting.

Accustomed to making potions, Celia will not under any circumstances deviate from a recipe while cooking, whereas Alistair just chucks everything in to use up leftovers and see what happens. Alistair gets meals together super quickly whereas Celia takes forever. A little unfairly, Celia is perceived as the better cook because she produces very consistent meals, while Alistair’s experiments sometimes do work, and sometimes don’t, with people tending to focus on the disasters rather than the successes. Meanwhile Celia is rather: “should I add half a sprig of rosemary? No I mustn’t: it would be far too daring!” so everyone learns to tip their own seasonings into their bowl before even tasting her food.

When they’re travelling and walking for days on end, Alistair and Celia make up a lot of games in the vein of ‘I spy’ and ‘would you rather?’ They can occasionally persuade others to participate though no one enjoys them or gets quite as invested as Celia and Alistair (who are actual children).

A game stops abruptly one day when Celia guilelessly asks if Alistair would rather be Emperor of Orlais or King of Fereldan and he gets extremely defensive and answers, “Neither.” Having no context for this reaction (yet), Celia (a stickler for the rules) pushes him, insisting his answer isn’t allowed and that he’s cheating until Alistair gets grouchy, stomps off and refuses to play anything for days.

Celia figures he must be overtired, but his unhappy reaction does come back to her later at the Landsmeet and contributes to her already firm resolve not to put him on the throne.

When bored, Alistair also periodically asks Celia to, “Do a trick!” with her magic and she usually obliges with something small and silly which Wynne always scolds them for (but they continue to do anyway).

Celia does not like Eamon one bit and makes it clear from their first meeting. Alistair actually gets a bit annoyed at her because she is polite to 99% of the other people they meet and he can’t understand what her problem is. Celia won’t say because she doesn’t want to drive Alistair away so she remains coldly civil towards Eamon and commences a long, looong process of nudging Alistair towards having the realisation himself that a) Eamon is manipulative, selfish and cruel and b) Alistair deserves better.

Celia wants to collect some of the books they find which is not practical given they are constantly travelling, but Alistair carries as many as he can in his pack and suffers in silence for it, ultimately finding it worth it for her enthusiastic gratitude.

Celia cuts Alistair’s hair and does a very respectable job after weeks of him complaining it’s flopping in his eyes (they used to cut each other’s hair in the Circle). Zevran pretends she did an awful job, gasping in horror at Alistair’s appearance, much to Celia’s ire. Alistair (internally weeping) tries to be brave until he can check his reflection in some plate mail and see it is fine.

Celia is very naïve about how the ‘real world’ works having been at the Circle since she was a child. This is especially evident in Denerim and Alistair has to explain how money works and grab her before she wanders down dicey looking alleyways.

Alistair nearly dissolves into a paroxysm of agony when he points out his favourite type of cheese at the Denerim Markets and (accustomed to the very limited range of bland foods provided at the Circle) Celia innocently asks, “There is more than one type of cheese?” Alistair makes it his mission to educate her. She doesn’t like most of what he feeds her but doesn’t say so to protect his feelings given he seems to take the matter so incredibly personally.

Leliana convinces Celia to sing one evening at the campfire. She’s breathy with a very limited range but manages okay, and Leliana plays and harmonises in support. Watching on with a goofy smile plastered over his face, Alistair comments to the surrounding companions about how talented she is and they’re like “…she’s really not mate.”

When they both wake up from a blightmare (or Celia has one and wakes Alistair with her flailing) they sneak about and eat anything they can find then sit up and have massive deep & meaningfuls (i.e. in the spirit of going for a long drive with a friend or being in the garden with someone outside a party and spilling your guts). Eventually they start blaming the depleted food stores on Leliana’s nug, Schmooples, much to Leliana’s displeasure.

Given Celia usually responds so well to his jokes, Alistair gets a bit peeved when Celia starts replying to some of his more severely self-deprecating humour with an unamused, “No you’re not,” or, “That’s not true.” He defensively argues it’s just a joke, but he does stop doing it so much as time goes on.

Celia is SO excited when Alistair gives her the rose. She never in her life thought she would be the recipient of a proper ~romantic gesture~…however she accidentally sits on the rose about five minutes after she gets it. Celia is devastated. There is a lot of panic and tears and she keeps one petal pressed in a book but has to unceremoniously ditch the rest in secret.

Celia doesn’t tell Alistair about this until years later and she’s terrified he’ll be hurt but he just laughs because he was so worried he was going to be the one to squash it and then she destroyed it basically the minute she got it. Alistair acknowledges it was an impractical gift given their situation. Celia gets mad and says it was a PERFECT gift and is annoyed at how funny he finds it given this has been a crushing, guilty secret hanging over her for years.

Following this, every time Alistair gives her any kind of gift, he can’t help but throw in a ‘Don’t sit on it!” and cracks himself up, especially when Celia gets grumpy about it and accuses him of spoiling the moment. It happens so often that when Alistair chooses a horse for her and plans to teach her to ride, Celia manages to cut him off with, “Yes, I know Alistair: I can sit on this one,” and steals his thunder.

Alistair periodically says Celia’s name just to check if she’ll answer, especially after a long period of quiet or to see if she’s awake à la screaming in the chantry because it’s so silent. When she responds he says, “Nothing” or “Never mind” but he finds it vaguely comforting just to hear her reply and it’s a habit he never loses, even when they have been together for years and he is much less isolated generally. Alistair doesn’t realise he’s doing it, and it never happens frequently enough for Celia to notice: she just assumes he has lost his train of thought.

They sometimes conspire to purposely fall to the back of the group while on the road so that they can hold hands. Everyone knows full well what they are doing, but Alistair and Celia think they are being incredibly ~sneaky~.

The first time they sleep together they laugh. A lot. Before, during and after.

Alistair snores loudly but only when he’s on his back. Celia is used to the noise of people sleeping around her at the Circle so it doesn’t bother her and she doesn’t want to disturb him because she knows he needs the rest.

When they are known to be sharing a tent however, their companions will slap on the walls of it and demand she kick him until he stops snoring. Celia will relent and gently prod and nudge Alistair until he rolls over with a bit of sleepy grumbling.

I think everyone has this headcanon to the point it is basically actual canon HOWEVER I am legally obligated to include it: Alistair is a professional body heat distributor and Celia drastically cuts down on the number of blankets she uses once they are sleeping together. If she stands in front of him on cold days, he understands the non-verbal signal and will automatically wrap her in his cloak.

Also might as well be canon: Alistair likes to be the little spoon. He doesn’t say, but Celia knows.

Decidedly not a fluff one (you can skip to Amaranthine to avoid) but the ritual with Morrigan fairly significantly messes Alistair up (both the act itself and his consideration of the repercussions i.e. Kieran). He’s jubilant and relieved at their victory over the Archdemon, but in the background struggles to process and there is some fallout once the victory celebrations lull and he has time to fully register what happened. Alistair grapples with a lot of guilt, disgust and confusion. He doesn’t know how to express it or where to direct his emotions so it mainly manifests as self-loathing. He wants to talk to Celia about it but can’t articulate his feelings which makes him feel worse.

Celia tries to comfort him, but he needs space on and off for a long while after and she gives him it. She feels a lot of guilt too, and never stops wondering how much it was actually his choice to do the ritual, worrying that she made him feel like he had to do it. Eventually they discuss it openly and honestly, which eases both of their minds somewhat, but it takes a long time to get to a point where they can talk on the subject. Meeting Kieran at Skyhold also helps Alistair down the line, though it’s obviously painful.

Amaranthine & Inquisition

Alistair keeps an eye out for people struggling, especially new recruits who are having trouble fitting in. He takes them under his wing and is very good at building people up and making sure everyone is included. He’ll just start enthusiastically greeting people like they are his best friend and squeezing himself onto the bench next to them at meals until everyone else follows suit.

For recruits that don’t respond well to his ‘mother hen’ type attention, Celia is good at assigning tasks that specifically highlight their strengths and builds their confidence/sense of purpose which also gains them the respect of their peers.

Alistair has been known to stand behind Celia while she is giving mundane orders/making speeches and pull faces or impersonate her, turning stony and impassive when she spins around accusingly because people are laughing.

But if anyone else talks smack about her he gets very, “Sorry mate, just to clarify was that comment directed at my wife, your Commander, the hERO OF FERELDAN, VANQUISHER OF AN ARCHDEMON!? That’s lucky, I didn’t THINK IT LIKELY. Because that wouldn’t be WISE, would it now?” etc. with some loud, fake laughter and firm backslapping for the worst offenders.

The plan for them to part ways so that Celia can search for a cure goes very badly, especially because Celia (under a lot of stress and not coping™) eventually devolves into, “I’m in charge and I say so,” which is a big betrayal of their agreements both to stay together, and make decisions together on equal footing. She realises this and takes it back but Alistair is demoralised and gives in with a bit of petty, sarcastic reverence e.g. saluting and, “Whatever you say boss, don’t know why I dared to utter an opinion how foolish of me...” so they still part on slightly strained terms, even after later mutually apologising and trying to make the most of their time together before they go.

Both regret the argument during their separation and write horribly soppy letters to each other, but something still feels uncomfortably unresolved until they are together again. They pine. So much. It’s disgusting and cliched. There is considerable sighing and staring at the moon or deep into tankards, very much to the ire of those around them. Alistair can be particularly annoying: “This roll reminds me of my wife...she eats bread sometimes...”

After Celia sends the letter to the Inquisitor, she writes to Leliana directly along the lines of, “I know it was incredibly subtle but I wanted to check: did they get the message? That I will destroy them if Alistair gets hurt?” and Leliana replies in the vein of, “Hon, it wasn’t even remotely subtle ffs…”

When reunited, though ecstatic and nearly delirious with joy and relief, it takes a while to rebuild the trust they once had, especially for Alistair. There’s an unfamiliar awkwardness that flares up unexpectedly, but it doesn’t last and they’re both fully committed to each other and to staying together permanently this time.

Celia and Alistair have a conversation recapping everything that happened while they were apart in which Celia is all, “Poor Hawke. Honestly I’m shocked you didn’t do something obscenely idiotic like try and sacrifice yourself thank the Maker for that…” and Alistair is there, nervously sweating, looking for an exit, loosening his collar etc.

As they settle back into their old routines Alistair will occasionally blurt out things like, “I really like having breakfast with you,” and then berate himself internally for how trite that sounds but Celia replies on cue, “I love waking up next to you and the way you groan when you stretch your back out and the way you check your hair twice before you leave the room and the way you complain if I don’t eat my crusts and the way you still hold my hand when we’re walking...” and basically they’re just blissfully happy being comfortably domestic and even as they get older they are forever just teenagers in love.

The Wardens at Amaranthine acquire/receive a griffon egg and the hatchling imprints on Alistair and decides he is their mother. It can’t cope with separation, crying constantly if Alistair goes out of sight, and won’t let anyone else feed or handle it so Alistair carries them in a sling 24/7. He gets to give orders and run training sessions with the tiny griffon occasionally poking its head out just to glare at everyone.

Whenever the baby griffon squeaks, Alistair automatically replies, “Well said,” or “Excellent point, Ser Beaksly” with a totally straight face.

For the first few months, Celia gets nipped or scratched if she approaches Alistair unless he wraps the griffon up. It so badly wants to fight her. Celia is permitted to sleep in her own bed, as long as the griffon sleeps curled on Alistair’s chest and Celia doesn't try anything outrageous like touching her husband even fleetingly. It gets a little frustrating as the months drag on, but the image of Alistair with the sling over his armour, or with the griffon snuggling possessively around his neck staring daggers at everyone, is so entertaining that Celia can’t get truly annoyed about it. As the griffon gets older it does learn to tolerate other people and becomes more independent but remains very protective of Alistair and favours him above all others. Insert the ‘Ah yes. Me. My husband. And his thousand pound murder-bird-cat child’ meme here.

Modern AU Bonus Round

They share headphones while commuting.

They occasionally end up wearing sort of matching outfits, mostly unintentionally.

They consistently refer to their dog, Trevor, as their son to the point that people who aren’t familiar with them assume that they actually have a child.

Dragon Age!

OH BOY OH BOY. Ty, anon, I’ll try not to ramble too much about this hell from which I cannot escape.

the first character i ever fell in love with: The worst bug in any Bioware game was my f!Warden not being able to romance Morrigan for some reason?? Pretty unacceptable.

a character that i used to love/like, but now do not: NONE. ZERO. I LOVE THEM ALL. Maybe Solas? I still like him, but that liking has probably cooled somewhat since my first playthrough of Inquisition.

a ship that i used to love/like, but now do not: Hmm, I don’t think I have one?

my ultimate favorite character™: A MYSTERY TO BE SURE. I don’t remember ever having a 2D crush as strong as the one I have for my husband, Zevran Arainai, who needs to be returned to me immediately, Bioware.

prettiest character: Zevran and Isabela~~

my most hated character: Broodmothers because they make me physically ill. Giant spiders for the same reason.

my OTP: Zev/Warden(/Alistair), Nathaniel/Velanna/Sigrun, and Merribela (with a side of f!Hawke).

my NOTP: Sera x male characters or Dorian x female characters, some parts of the fandom should be stopped.

favorite episode: I’m gonna turn this into favourite area and say Orzammar from Origins. Everything about the dwarf lore in that game was intriguing imo.

saddest death: Here lies Zevran’s beauty, DA:O - DA2. No, but really, any of the party deaths in Awakening are a bummerrrr except maybe some of Justice’s outcomes.

favorite season game: Origins. On a very personal level, it’s the game that helped pull me out of a severe depression by making me kind of care about something for the first time in a long time and also the game that rekindled my love of video games in general after several years of shying away from playing them. But I also think it has the most well-written characters and compelling story line of the series.

least favorite season game: Hmm, probably Inquisition. DA2 had plenty of problems, many of which made the game anywhere from significantly less enjoyable to almost unplayable for me, but it also had a cast that I adored overall. I truly like the companions in DA:I, but they’re the ones I’ve remained the least attached to overall, so it loses big points from me there, despite having some solid quests and beautiful terrain. Idk, it’s hard to pick; they’re both very good games, despite their respective issues!

character that everyone else in the fandom loves, but i hate: Fenrisss. I don’t hate him, but he made it very hard for me to like him during my first (pro-mage) run. Cole is also pretty popular, but I just straight up forget exists sometimes whoops.

my ‘you’re piece of trash, but you’re still a fave’ fave: Sera. She’s so stubborn and abrasive, but I love her.

my ‘beautiful cinnamon roll who deserves better than this’ fave: Let Aveline have some god damn peace and quiet in this city. Also, Vivienne re: fandom.

my ‘this ship is wrong, nasty, and makes me want to cleanse my soul, but i still love it’ ship: Architect/The Mother; make love, not war, you abominations. (This is a joke, and I have made myself Upset.)

my ‘they’re kind of cute, and i lowkey ship them, but i’m not too invested’ ship: Oh, lots. Various Warden/companion pairings, same with Inquisitor, Anders/Nathaniel, Aveline/Isabela, Krem/Harding, Blackwall/Josephine, Josephine/Leliana. I’m all over the place, really.

Dragon Age Question Meme

01) favorite game of the series?

I know this will annoy people but I don’t have an ultimate favorite! I love all the games for different reasons. Origins first made me love RPGs and the series (Also Alistair was my first video game love ;), DA2 allowed me to live my sarcastic life and I relate to Hawke on many levels. Inquisition has that tactical and strategic aspect that I love while also having all the lore and storyline I adore.

02) how did you discover Dragon Age?

I discovered Dragon Age after deciding to try it after posting a picture of my character in Oblivion. I was saying how my character looked like Jennifer Lawrence and my friend asked if it was from Dragon Age. Curious, I looked up Dragon Age. At first I doubted I would like it since it looked a bit anime-ish which I’m not a fan of. Luckily I decided to give it a try and ended up loving it!

03) how many times you’ve played the games?

Origins - 3-4 times (only twice fully through)

DA2 - A few times

Inquisition - Loads of times

04) favorite race to play as?

Human or Elf

05) favorite class?

Rogue

06) do you play through the games differently or do you make the same decisions each time?

I try to make different decisions but tend to end up not pissing off the people I like (like Alistair and Fenris) lol

07) go-to adventuring group?

Origins - Alistair, Zevran, Wynne

Awakening -

DA2 - Varric, Fenris, Isabela or Varric, Anders, Isabela

Inquisition - Varric, Dorian, Bull

08) which of your characters did you put the most thought into?

Lena Trevelyan, story wise and in game. I had a specific idea of what I wanted her to look like and how I wanted her to act.

09) favorite romance?

Hands down, Warden x Alistair. Everytime he speaks my heart is just all a flutter. The romance with him is just so pure and unconditional that not many other romances can come close to it in my opinion.

10) have you read any of the comics/books?

I have read 2 of the books (so far. I’m reading a third now) and only a couple of the comics.

11) if you read them, which was your favorite book?

My favorite is definitely Stolen Throne because I like seeing how Maric is as a character and seeing how much Alistair is like him. Also his dynamic with Loghain and Rowan is interesting.

12) favorite DLCs?

While I own all DLCS for all 3 games, I have only played all the DLCs for Origins and Inquisition.With that, in Origins, I really like Soldier’s Peak on because seeing the old Warden headquarters place is just so cool! It’s awesome to see a piece of their history. In Inquisition, I LOVE Trespasser because that continuation after the final battle really adds a layer to everybody’s story arcs and the eluvian destinations are GORGEOUS.

13) things that annoy you.

Morrigan’s attitude, specifically toward Alistair, Ander’s in DA2 (Justice is a jerk and ruins him) and Solas being a know-it-all.

14) Orlais or Ferelden?

I don’t have a preference! I really like the aesthetic of both.

15) templars or mages?

While I tend to romance former templars a lot, I’m a mage supporter 100%.

16) if you have multiple characters, are they in different/parallel universes or in the same one?

Same universe. With my story series, all my main characters know each other and interact. I just think having their stories intertwine with one another to be the coolest thing.

17) what did you name your pets? (mabari, summoned animals, mounts, etc)

Never named my mounts but my mabari has always been named Much, just like my Warden, Ana.

18) have you installed any mods?

Yes. A lot of them, lol. I wanted to make my current games resemble my stories so they can link together.

19) did your Warden want to become a Grey Warden?

When I first started playing, my character was a bit iffy about it. Story-wise, she doesn’t want to be a warden.

20) hawke’s personality?

Charming/Sarcastic all the way. Only once have I been diplomatic.

21) did you make matching armor for your companions in Inquisition?

No, lol. I don’t have enough patience for that. I just made sure they looked okay and had good enough armor to not die on me right away.

22) if your character(s) could go back in time to change one thing, what would they change?

That is actually answered in my second story, Foregone! During my very first playthrough of Origins, I made some terrible decisions and ended up devastated. After speaking with the amazing @thelionandthelight, she convinced me to make a story out of it. Since speaking of that one would be spoiling it for those who read my stories, I’ll say that Lena would go back in time make sure that she didn’t go back in time at Redcliffe.That whole event messed her up.

23) do you have any headcanons about your character(s) that go against canon?

Technically, yes. I have a non-warden Amell, a non-Inquisitor Lavallen and some characters from other games show up in games they weren’t originally in.

24) are any of your character(s) based on someone?

Yes. Ana and Lena are loosely based on me and a few other tv characters. Nevan might be very loosely based off my cousin.

25) who did you leave in the Fade?

Stroud. I refuse to leave Hawke in the Fade for personal reasons and because I can’t stand to make Varric sad.

26) favorite mount?

I can’t remember the name of it for the life of me but the giant nug with weird hands and the armored mount.

I tag: @thelionandthelight, @enchantment1385, @schattengerissen, @ladycremecaramel and whoever else wants to do it!

All the multimuse questions!!!!

((jfdsahg; THANK YOU. i have so many things to answer/write rn so I can’t do all of them Q_Q But I appreciate your interest in my OCs and love you. I’ll answer a few I haven’t already answered yet. ))

Answered Questions: 1 and 4 [here] , 9 [here], 12 and 27 [here], 3 and 16 and 28 [here]

——————-

2. If you HAD to choose, who’s your favorite muse?

It’s close but Isseya Mahariel. I love all my babies but she’s the easiest to write. And I have a crush on her.

8. What is each of your muses otps? notps?

I have a lot of OC x OC ships now because my mutuals are awesome. i don’t want to pick OTPs from them but my canon ships are:

OTP’s: Blue Surana x Sten (they never get together but I’m a slut for mutual mining), Isseya Mahariel x Zevran Arainai (after 10 years of volatile struggling the rest of their marriage is happy and they have 4 kids whoo!), Alyss Amell x Leliana, Cassian Cousland x Nathaniel Howe, Nora Brosca x Sigrun, Claira Hawke x Anders

NOTP’s: the only Notps I have are my gays (Nora and Cassian) with opposite gender partners

11. Is there another muse you’ve been thinking of adding or writing for? who?

I already have 1 of each Warden and I used default names/appearance for my first 2 Hawkes before Claira (who I just added about a week ago) and never gave them much thought for headcanons.. so none from Origins or DA2. I do want to write more for Claira Hawke though.

I recently started my second playthrough (don’t ask about my first, Lyria Lavellan is a self-insert who didn’t romance anyone and I barely remember anything about her playthrough) of Inquisition with demisexual future-necromancer Helios Adaar so hopefully I might intro him here one day.

15. Can you sort your muses from youngest to oldest?

At Start of Origins: Blue Surana (18), Isseya Mahariel (19), Kieran Tabris (20), Alyss Amell (21), Nora Brosca (22), Cassian Cousland (24), Claira Hawke (25), Ronan Aeducan (27)

At Start of Inquisition: same order, Origin Ages + 10 years

18. Would you ship any of your muses together? who?

…..A very guilty yes. Don’t get me started on specifics, but Kieran Tabris is like the “Hawke” of his friend group in that over the course of 10+ years of living in such close proximity with his good looking best friends he’s definitely at least thought about sleeping with each of them at least once. There’s at least 2 or 3 of them who wouldn’t/haven’t said no to him in separate AU’s only entertained in my head. And my other non-Kieran muses may also have let their eyes and thoughts linger on each other more than they’d ever admit.

101 Dragon Age Questions

Going to answer it because I’m waiting for dinner

How did you get into Dragon Age? A friend of mine got a Bioware bundle I think, and gave me Origins.

Have you finished all three games? Nope, Currently starting Trespasser and at the beginning of DA2 (finished Origins)

How long did it take you to finish the series? I can say it took me around 50-ish hours to finish Origins and I’m currently at 105h on Inquisition.

What was your first Warden (gender/class/race/personality)? Curiously enough, it was a female mage elf. But since you can’t marry Alistair with that warden, I started a new game with a Warrior Female Human, Ellyah Cousland. Personality wise, I usually go for the dork sarcastic and maybe a tiny violent dialog. I can’t really remember, it was 2 years ago :T

What was your first Hawke like (gender/class/temperament)? First Hawke was a male mage, I actually forgot his name, with the sarcastic temperament. Best.Hawke.Ever

First Inquisitor (gender/class/race/personality)? Mage \female (my headcanon, they are agender but we have to choose one so YEH)\, again with the sarcasm violent dork. Also another headcanon, they aren’t a Lavellan, but a Mahariel (dalish origin from Origins), but that’s another story.

Favorite DA:O backstory? I only played the dalish mage and the noble warrior, so I’m going with the second one.

Preferred class overall? Mage. I wish they were stronger ;_;

Do you tend to play male or female characters most? Good question. I’d say it’s 50/50. Right now I have 2 male inquisitors created, and 1 female (let’s make it 2 then). on Origins I’ve only played female, on DA2 I’ve only played with males.

Share a pic of your favorite OC from any DA game. My “Lavellan”

Best Hawke quote? I have no idea, he’s a fun ball, all of them???

Favorite DA:I place? Anything elf-like. Really. It’s where I was happy

Did your Inquisitor choose the Mages or the Templars? Mages

Which did you leave behind (Abyss)? Hawke. Here’s why: Anders died and I wanted him to join him in Andraste’s bosom. Besides, Strout had to restore the Wardens.

Inquisitor’s feelings on being the Herald of Andraste? They don’t believe in it, but if the people want to, then what can they do? (aside from denying it every time)

What are your feelings on the Chantry? I’m going to skip this one sorry

What are your feelings on the Circle? Needs retirement tbh

DLC for the first 2 games: All of it, some of it, or none of it? All of them I guess?
