something something the body of the inquisitor responds to the anchor as if it is an infection and attempts to treat it by burning it out through fevers, sweating it out, purging, even bleeding it out. and for mage inquisitors it interferes with their magic, potentially causing seizures as the anchor causes misfires. not to mention nerve damage going up the inquisitor's arm and spreading as the anchor continues to spread, muscle stiffness, ect.
aka guess who's writing that fic with dorian and vivienne i said i'd write >:). anyone have any anchor headcanons they want to share? give em to me 🖐

Is Solas getting paid by the Inquisition for his work
#dragon age#cause he's like actually on the staff list right#like okay dorian and viv and sera are all there representing themselves or a faction right#so they are presumably getting paid by their faction work (sera) or some nebulous independent wealth#Bull is definitely unambiguously getting paid#i don't think spirits have good labor unions so cole is not getting paid#i have no idea what Blackwall is doing but he lives in the barn#so i don't think he cares#Varric's job title is unwelcome tag along#but he has a job so i don't think he's getting paid by the Inquisition either#your advisors plus cass definitely get paid#but solas is like. the only one who i think gets an @inquisition.gov.nz email who may not be getting paid#he must be right#or do you think he refuses it? would josie let him?#oh my god is that pile of gold in trespasser all the money we paid solas that he never fucking spent#actually idk maybe viv and dorian are also being paid because now that i think about it they don't actually have money#they just have the vibes of money#the irony of solas potentially having a higher net worth than viv is very funny#dorian is weird because he's like sort of cut off from his family but not really#did you know if you add enough tags to a post they stop working properly

anyway. desire demon inquisitor
#no photo bc i havent made him yet but its 4 am and he just popped into my head#he was possessing a mage trev who was the one who grabbed the orb. long story short trevs mind p much melted and so now its just him#he would Very Much rather be in the fade right now but he anchor has tied him (unbeknownst to him) permanently to the body#until it dies of course. he has some shape shiting abilities and is unnaturally good at talking ppl into things. but he cant like. do deals#solas can absolutely tell. cass and c*llen know somethings up bc of their training but he convinces them its just the anchor#dorian and viv also get a Vibe off him but once again. charisma 10#no idea who he romances. kinda wanna do someone i dont usually go for. maybe cass? or i mean i aint above using mods#so like. everyone except sera is on the table#thiugh i must confess. the idea of him being the chaotic bastard to solas' calm collected façade is... tempting#partially bc ive had the idea of solas saying the word 'whore' stuck in my head for 2 days straight now#i think its between him cass and josie tbh#tag rant

OC interview: Terys Lavellan
Thank you @thatssolavellan for the tag!!!
INTRODUCTION
1. Can you introduce yourself?
I am Terys, a hunter of Clan Lavellan, I go by she, and I'm Mythal's Chosen.
2. What is your gender identity, orientation and relationship status?
Gender identity is something different from elves to shem, but I feel comfortable being called a woman. I'm attracted to all kinds of people and single.
3. Where and when were you born?
I was born on the 7th day of the second month of Spring. The calendar we Elvhen use is different from the shem's Chantry's, but I think the month would be Cloudreach. I was born in my clan's camp, in Ferelden. We used to live there before the Blight.
4. What is your weapon of choice and fighting style?
I use daggers and I prefer finishing the fight before it starts. I try to kill as many of my enemies as I can before they notice me.
5. Lastly, are you happy?
That's a difficult question. I am and am not. There's a moment for every emotion. Just because my life is hard doesn't mean I don't find happiness. But my life has been hard.
The rest of the questions under cut because it gets long.
FAMILY AND FRIENDS
1. What’s your family like? What is your relationship with them?
My family is wonderful, and I love them.
My mother is a very wise woman, she's the more quiet one, listening in on everything before speaking. As the Keeper, she's also a very powerful mage. My mom is wise as well, of course, but she's more adventurous and loud, my uncle still tells stories of all the trouble they got into as children.
My sister is a sweetheart. She loves finding things and learning, a bit like me, but she's more of a open book, despite her shyness. She also loves all kinds of dogs, especially the wolves our clan travels with, especially Arla, the pack's leader.
2. Have you ever ran away from home?
Never, and I've never thought about it or found the need, to be honest.
3. Would you consider marriage or having children?
I'd consider marriage, but having children isn't something I want. I'd rather just help my fellow clan mates with their kids when they need and I can.
4. Do you secretly hate one of your friends?
No. Not at all. But I have hated some of them, and they hated me back. But we have moved on from it. Cass and I only started getting along after Corypheus was defeated. I had that weight off my shoulders and she had started realizing her biases. Awkward talks ensued but we're friends now.
Viv and I started getting along after Haven fell. I realized that she truly cared for her fellow mages and everyone else, just has a different way of thought on how to protect them, and I spoke to her about Dalish mages, and how we didn't actually abandoned them in the wilds. I think my sister joining the Inquisition was also a great help.
5. Which friend knows everything about you?
The one friend whose goals would find him using that knowledge against me. Solas.
ASKED BY FANS
1. Are you literate? Have you been to school?
I can read and write both Elvhen and Trade, my Trade was a bit rusty before joining the Inquisition. I was taught alongside my clan mates my age many different things, trades and history, survival and the ways of nature, religion. And I tried to learn more, and learned much more as life went on.
2. The eeriest prediction you made that later came true?
I may have made a few jokes about Solas being the mastermind behind the Breach.
3. What is something you were embarrassingly late to realize?
That the rumors Mother Giselle warned me about weren't that Dorian was manipulating me, or that we were working together for nefarious ends, but that we were in a relationship. I only realized it when Dorian made a joke about it, when he was saying his goodbyes.
4. Do you have mental health or physical issues?
I obviously have one physical issue, my missing arm. Thankfully I have a prothesis, but it causes problems of its own. And my mental health is... Probably shaky. I'm more paranoid and anxious than I used to be.
5. What is your current main goal?
My current goal is to stop Solas from ending this world. Hopefully finding a way to return it to it's natural state in a peaceful way.
CHOICES
1. Drink or food?
Food.
2. Cats or dogs?
My sister would kill me for this, but cats. I still love dogs.
3. Optimist or pessimist?
A balance of both. It depends on what I'm thinking about.
4. Sassy or sarcastic?
Sassy.
HAVE YOU EVER
1. Been caught sneaking out?
Yes. My sister and I used to sneak out to explore ancient Elvhen ruins, after they were cleared by the hunters. We told our mothers we were going to gather blueberries, but they caught on the lie. I suspect they sent some hunters to watch over us without being caught.
Once we got older my sister and I still went to explore the ruins, but this time with authorization, and a couple of my hunter friends as backup.
2. Broken a bone?
A couple, it happens when you're a hunter, or a reckless kid, or when you're trying to repair a big hole in the sky made by a Magister.
3. Received flowers?
Yes. Romantically and platonically. Dalish kids love making flower crowns, it's something that keeps their hands busy and that they can brag about.
4. Ghosted someone?
No. When you're Dalish there aren't many ways to ghost someone, even if it's during an Arlathvenn, so you don't really find the need later in life, even outside the clan.
5. Pretended to laugh at a joke you didn’t get?
Never. This may be the cause of a couple of Josephine's grey hairs.
I'm tagging @dreadfutures @little-lightning-lavellan @vakarians-girl @vvakarians @tireddemigod @vronism (no pressure) and whoever wants to do this (pls tag me!)

OC Questionnaire
big thanks to @oxygenforthewicked for the tag <3
tagging @nothisis-ridiculous @starsandskies @felan-daris @alyssalenko @citadelsushi @poppyfrittes and whoever else would like to, no pressure
THE BASICS:
Character’s name: Aedra Lavellan
Role in story: Main character, though with everyone else she just considers herself there
Physical description: Long curly platinum blonde hair, usually half up half down. Lanky but more built in the arms and shoulders bc mage but she also trains with swords at times. Mythal vallaslin that carries on down her chest and ribcage, green to match her eyes. Lots of scars from battle and being stupid.
Age: 24-27 in Inquisition
MBTI/Enneagram Personality Type:
ENFP Type Description: Someone with the Extraverted, Intuitive, Feeling, and Prospecting personality traits. These people tend to embrace big ideas and actions that reflect their sense of hope and goodwill toward others. Their vibrant energy can flow in many directions.
Type 7w8 Description: “They tend to be enthusiastic, determined, and protective in their behavior. They are generally more tough and work-oriented than other seven types.”
INTERNAL LIFE:
What is their greatest fear?
Being alone, lack of control, spiders. The basics.
Inner motivation
Survival and protection.
Kryptonite
I think just loss as a whole. She has this ‘I need to save everyone’ mindset and she will fight until she can’t stand to make sure everyone gets out.
What is their misbelief about the world?
That good people will always be good and bad will always be bad. I like to think she grows out of it pretty fast during her first few months in the Inquisition, it’s just easier to look at things in black and white. (yes i’m still heavy into my mass effect playthrough and i definitely think garrus’ “i dont know what to do with grey” line would apply)
Lesson they need to learn
Not everyone is gonna make it out peachy
What is the best thing in their life?
Definitely the people in her life, they’re her security and comfort.
What is the worst thing in their life?
She is - a lot of the time actually. Not intentionally, she just has a tendency of making decisions before she’s had time to consider them.
What do they most often look down on people for?
Very pompous “i know more than you therefore i’m better” behaviour. She didn’t really get on so well with Viv and Solas in the beginning bc of this.
What makes his/her/their heart feel alive?
Company, chatter in the background. Just being around loved ones.
What makes them feel loved, and who was the last person to make them feel that way?
She’s not particularly good at voicing her emotions in a healthy way, so small acts of understanding make her heart swell. Things like still chatting to her when she’s low on social energy bc they know she’s listening or just being in her company. She’s very much a people person and she makes this known.
Friends like Varric or Dorian, the type that like the sound of their own voice help a lot. Cullen helps for quiet nights when she can’t quite keep up the talkative, happy façade.
Top three things they value most in life?
Light-heartedness, softer moments like above, smiles and laughter
EXTERNAL LIFE:
Is there an object they can’t bear to part with and why?
She didn’t really keep anything from the Clan, it wasn’t particularly the life for her. Cullen’s coin is definitely one, (i just haven’t thought about how she wears it.)
Describe a typical outfit for them from top to bottom.
Her casual usually has people mistaking her for the help at Skyhold. Half up half down hair on colder days, a bun when it’s warmer. Sometimes a braid but usually not. Loose cotton tunics tucked into high waisted leather pants with knee length boots. Sometimes she’ll have some sort of coat over if the weather’s unbearable but she prefers movement and she likes keeping busy so cold isn’t a particular issue.
Her armour’s the same, mobility is very important to her so leather armour is her go-to. Leather coat with a metal chest piece and fabric wrapped around her waist, partially cosmetic yes. A lot of straps everywhere with pouches for lyrium and ingredients, etc.
What names or nicknames has they been called throughout their life?
Varric dubbed her Songbird for obvious reason.
What is their method of manipulation?
She prefers being direct, or avoiding the situation completely.
Describe their daily routine
Wake up, dawdle the barracks before breakfast - with Varric usually. Catch up with the rest of the lot, spend way too long in the war room arguing about bridges. Steal a kiss from Cullen sometime before dinner. Miss dinner, raid the larder at midnight and take everything to Cullen’s office because he also missed dinner. Help him with a nightmare or tell him to go to bed because he’s probably working, Fall asleep way too late.
Their go-to cure for a bad day?
Wicked Grace at the tavern, chatter and laughter flowing.
GOALS:
How are they dissatisfied with their life?
I don’t think she’s ever dissatisfied, it’s more so confusion like how in the Maker’s name did I end up here.
What would bring them true happiness or contentment?
Towards the end of Trespasser, it would definitely just be peace. The ability to go as she pleases without the weight of everything on her shoulders.
What definitive step could they take to turn their dream into a reality?
I guess quit being the Inquisitor and move to the country side but that kind of already happened? I dont know I don’t think she could ever really get peace, just a calm before the storm.
How has their fear kept them from taking this action already?
It’s not fear, she just doesn’t have the control to make everything stop going wrong in Thedas every two seconds.
Do they feel they can accomplish their goal while still steering clear of the thing they are afraid of?
If she simply chose to ignore everything, yes.
#this was so long but really fun#aedra's literally me this poor woman im so sorry#aedra lavellan#tag

Shadows fall, and hope has fled. Steel your heart; the dawn will come
The Inquisitor’s heart broke when her family of friends scattered to the winds in the wake of the Exalted Council. She was emptied of hope as Solas’s power and reach grew. Left with a dead past and only a dread future to look forward to, Ixchel Lavellan lay down and chose not to wake up.
As the Veil began to unravel and the fabric of reality tore apart at the seams, a desperate ally sacrificed everything to give her a second chance.
And Ixchel will never forgive him.

DA:I Fantasy Opera Casting
One of the podcasts I’ve been listening to recently, Opera After Dark, sometimes features episodes where they’ll do fantasy castings movies/tv series (like HP, SW, GoT) and, well... I couldn’t resist.
I’m not going to tag anyone but if you have any passing interest in opera, I’d love to see what other people come up with! Some of these were really easy to choose and some of them I really struggled with, it would be v. interesting to see choices others make (and maybe be introduced to some new artists along the way?) disclaimer: I know next to nothing about music theory or composition i’m just having fun
COMPANIONS: Blackwall - Peter Mattei, baritone I went back and forth a bit on whether a baritone or a tenor would be more suitable for Blackwall; I went with Baritone mostly because I really fell in love with the idea of casting Mattei. He’s got enough charisma to make Blackwall’s lie believable. I also think he’d be well suited to handle both the more dramatic beats of Blackwall’s narrative arc (I’m imagining him singing an aria adaptation of that story Blackwall tells in the bar about the dog) as well as his more light-hearted interactions with characters like Sera. Iron Bull - Morris Robinson, bass I wanted at least one bass among the companions and Bull seemed like the best choice! It’s hard to tell how well-suited he’d be to the humor (most roles in his vocal range are deeply serious figures of authority: the Commendatore in Don Giovanni, the Grand Inquisitor in Don Carlo, etc.) but he comes across as very charming and warm based on his interviews and I think he’d do great.
Cassandra - Joyce DiDonato, mezzosoprano I had to get Joyce in here somewhere. I think the mezzo range would suit Cassandra really well, and I cast DiDonato because I think she could bring a lot of nuance and sympathy to the character that I don’t feel in canon. She plays a lot of strong women, and I think she’d make a whole ten-course-meal out of the journey Cassandra goes on re: the Seekers, the Chantry, questioning her role in establishing the Inquisition, etc. Add in a splash of Cassandra’s romantic side? Joyce would kill it.
Varric - Matthew Polenzani, tenor Varric was one of the hardest roles to cast. He ended up as a tenor largely because most of the other companions were cast before him, and I wanted another companion in that range. I also like the idea of a tenor/mezzo argument between Varric and Cassandra.
Sera - Pretty Yende, soprano Pretty Yende is one of my favorite sopranos, partly because she can be absolutely hilarious in one breath and heartbreaking in the next. IMO she really shines in comedic roles. I just imagine her as an extremely irreverent, uninhibited and fun-loving Sera, showing off her coluratura, taking the piss out of everyone else in the main cast in the most beautiful way possible.
Cole - Nicholas Tamagna, countertenor I went back and forth a bit on whether to cast Cole as a countertenor or as a pants role, but ultimately I went with the countertenor. I really love this voice type and I think it suits Cole really well—youthful and kind of lofty? His vocal range is therefore higher than (or as high) as everyone elses, so when he’s reading the other character’s thoughts he can always sing “above” them, which might be an interesting musical way to tie him to the Fade. idk
Dorian - Amar Muchhala, tenor There was no doubt in my mind that Dorian was a tenor. Give him all that kind of like, typical heroic, bombastic music.
Vivienne - J’nai Bridges, mezzosoprano J’nai is a queen, and there’s such a warmth to her voice. I have no trouble imagining her wrapping the whole Orlesian court around her finger. She has that regality but also that vulnerability, y’know? For those really sweet moments with Viv and the IQ. Solas - Bryn Terfel, baritone I struggled with Solas the most so I’m really curious what thought anyone else might have. I thought about casting Solas in pretty much every other vocal range before I settled on baritone. I feel like you MIGHT have been able to get away with casting like, a young Fen’Harel as a tenor, but that seemed far from the right choice to Solas. I also thought about making casting him as a countertenor, but there’s like... this characteristic of the countertenor voice, this kind of purity? that I think is also wrong for Solas. Simply because of baritone roles in the rep Terfel plays a lot of villains and he’s spine-tingling good at this, but I also think he has the sensitivity to pull Solas off. The idea of him in a bald cap is slightly horrifying but I usually sit in the cheap seats anyway so likely I’d be spared the sight. xD

ANSWER THE FOLLOWING SO PEOPLE KNOW HOW SHIPS WORK ON YOUR BLOG
WHAT’S YOUR OTP FOR YOUR MUSE?
my biggest ships are probably bethany/merrill, mahariel/merrill, briala/merrill, and carver/merrill! i also ship tetrak/dorian although only in his non-qunari verse for multiple reasons, one being i don’t like to make dorian sad. for vivienne i don’t really have any ships beyond liking vivienne/nicoline. viv/bastien is fine too i guess but u kno. f/f ship.
HOW LARGE DOES THE AGE GAP HAVE TO BE TO MAKE IT UNCOMFORTABLE? :
uhhh i find its relative. as someone who rps literally ancient muses i find it’s more how ppl treat the age gap, like for solavellan sometimes people play up a teacher/student dynamic that i personally don’t think solavellan, the romance, even has b/c it’s as much about solas learning but ANYWAY. my point is if you harp on how young and innocent the younger one is or virginal then... ick. but also i find ppl below the age of ~24 to be difficult to ship with “older” muses. like, an 18 year old and a 25 year old is uncomfortable but a 35 year old and a 28 year old is fine.
ARE YOU SELECTIVE WHEN SHIPPING? :
relatively so yes.
HOW FAR DO STEAMY MOMENTS HAVE TO GO BEFORE THEY’RE CONSIDERED NS/FW? :
idk once tops come off or there’s explicit references to arousal.
WHO ARE OTHER MUSES YOU SHIP YOUR MUSE WITH? :
besides referring to the first question, i ship merrill with lisa’s bethany (hopewrought) and peacebone’s mahariel (ghilannainguideme). gorim is singleship with joly’s aeducan.
ANY NOTPS? :
i don’t ship my mages with templars. as i mentioned, i ship merrill/carver but in verses where he stays with the templars even after da2 i couldn’t ship it. vivienne also may support the continuation of the order but in banter with cole it is implied she is (or was) just as capable of being afraid of them as any mage so. no.
also i don’t ship ruth with mages or elves for similar reasons.
DOES ONE HAVE TO ASK TO SHIP WITH YOU? :
yes lmao. unless i ask first but either way there must be communication.
HOW OFTEN DO YOU LIKE TO SHIP? :
rarely, tbh? there are some characters i can ship with a lot of ppl like merrill, but for the most part i prefer having one or two ships i invest a lot of effort/time/development into over a lot of ships.
ARE YOU MULTISHIP? :
you can consult my rules! for the most part yes, but i don’t ship with more than one kind of muse.
ARE YOU SHIP-OBSESSED OR SHIP MORE-OR-LESS? :
more-or-less??? idk i can get super invested, but like i said its usually just one or two ships.
WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE SHIP IN YOUR CURRENT FANDOM? :
im gonna die with the word solian on my lips probably.
for canon in-game ships tho i think sera/dagna has the potential to drown the world in precious.
FINALLY, HOW DOES ONE SHIP WITH YOU? :
ask!!!! usually i’ll say (if we haven’t rped already) to try them out in a non-romantic context just to see if we have any chemistry rp-wise.
TAGGED BY: i stole this from my solas dash
TAGGING: whoever wishes to do this just @ me
#( mod notes )#( ooc )#( about me )#[ i also saw orana/merrill fanart once and i like the idea of that ship ]#[ i ship merrill w/ like every woman in the series except the most popular wlw ship which is my platonic otp go figure ]

tagged by @nordxz thank youuuuu i’ve been wanting to ramble about da i love this tag!! 💖💖 tagging [only if you want to, as always 🌲]: @geirdrifuls @magewave @blckwall @the-elves @blood-magic @dykejessblack @kipoints @greyedwardens @jennystahl @vecna @widowmaqer @readceras @henantier @stenscookies @watcherofsouls @noonvraith
1. favourite game of the series?
dao and da2 are like,, equally amazing but for the sake of picking only one- da2. i love that game so damn much it's unreal. i love hawke's story, story of a refugee who somehow made it to the top but... what i love is that it doesn't feel like a victory, like a reward. obviously it's a matter of how you play it but to me it feels like... hawke loses so much the title of the champion sounds like a mockery. to me, personally, in my most humble personal opinion. apart from hawke's story i love the whole plot of the game. the mage-templar conflict, meredith is such a good villain lmao coryphishit who?? and lastly, what i love the most about da2, the companions. in dai, they feel like your colleagues, they are following you because you are the Big Inquisitor figure, they aren't even following you personally but the cause, the inquisition itself. in dao it's kinda better but it still feels like they don't have to be there because of you, the protagonist, but because they want to stop the blight, or whatever other reason (no beef with dao, still better than dai). in da2 the companions join hawke because they want to. and they don't follow a cause, they don't have a goal, they join hawke because of who hawke is to them. and they feel so real to me. and i just really live for this "found family" trope. i love that shit.
2. how did you discover dragon age?
god i don't even know?? i have a vague memory of seeing fenris fanart on my dash so i started digging like ooo who's this hot elf and i found out he's from a dragon age game. i made a mental note to play it someday. so obviously i forgot about this immediately. then ages later i got a new laptop and the first games that i bought were skyrim, dai and dao ( @lavellane tay i also didn't know da2 existed lmao). but the thing is, i can't remember why i bought those da games?? i just... did. like it was an instinct to buy it asap.
3. how many times you’ve played the games?
i have played dai more times than i'm willing to admit since now i'm a certified dai hater. but okay like,, i know i have finished the whole game at least 9 times because i did have some other inquisitors and i did play as kaz and lyrhis twice. and then there are those many many inquisitors that either didn't even get past haven but i spent 3 hours in the cc and then those that got to at least skyhold or further. many. many times. and then dao and da2 are about the same, not as much as dai but a lot? i don't know. i had many hawkes and wardens.
4. favourite race to play as?
elfsies hehe
5. favourite class?
i usually play a rogue in like,, every game because it's the most comfe for me, being an archer. BUT i do love being a mage in dao, i LOVE the classes and the abilities and everything. i still prefer being a rogue in da2, love me some cute lil daggers. in dai i prefer to be an archer but knight-enchanter is cool too.
6. do you play through the games differently or do you make the same decisions each time?
yeah i play differently a lot. even when i replay my own characters i sometimes make different choices. i do however stick with my choices in da2? i like being "bad" in dao and in dai, much fun. but in da2 i just.... i love my one set path of choices and i won't make different ones lmao
7. go-to adventuring group?
i pick the companions depending on the character i'm playing. as in, who would they like to be around. so it looks like this dao- morrigan, zevran, alistair/dog/shale da2- fenris.... i love all of them except for sebastian so i change them around dai- lyrhis: viv, solas, dorian/blackwall. väellera: solas, blackwall, sera, dorian, varric. kaz: sera, idk i'm having a lil kaz crisis and idk who he likes but sera is there for sure
8. which of your characters did you put the most thought into?
kaz for sure. he was my first da protagonist and i love him a lot. but i would say.. also lyrhis and väellera, since i put so much time into dai i really did think through all three of them. and right now they are equally developed i think
9. favourite romance?
fenris is my all time fave. but like... blackwall, anders... really good as well
10. have you read any of the comics/books?
nah
11. if you read them, which was your favourite book?
/
12. favourite DLCs?
THE AWAKENING!!! i love it so much it's SO good i'm hhhhhhhhh hyped just thinking about it. also jaws of hakkon. very cool, better than the actual plot of dai because you get to see something other than chantry and andrastianism for once. aaand trespasser, i love the soundtrack and how rushed it feels. like you are just running and chasing and it's fast and emotional.
13. things that annoy you.
the fucking fandom lmao also like. do i have to say it, do i, do i really.......... dai. the entirety of dai. the andrastianism. the chantry. hawke's cameo. the... everything. there is a lot that annoys me but we are not here to see me list every single thing that annoys me, are we?
14. orlais or ferelden?
ferelden
15. templars or mages?
mages
16. if you have multiple characters, are they in different/parallel universes or in the same one?
so i reduced my hawkes to one hawke and i also only have one warden. but i do have 3 inquisitors and i didn't want to erase them and remake them into one because they are all so different and i love thinking about them in parallel universes. so the way it works now (because i used to change it up lmao) is that kaz is the main main main inquisitor and when he is the inquisitor väellera and lyrhis eventually join the inquisition too. when lyrhis is the inquisitor kaz and väe live happily and peacefully in the clan. when väe is the inquisitor kaz lives happily in the clan and lyrhis probably joins the inquisition again because she is Like That. so they did live in one clan lavellan prior to the events of dai.
17. what did you name your pets? (mabari, summoned animals, mounts, etc)
it's been months..... since i played any da game and the last time i played it.. it was probably dao for like 10 minutes before it crashed and i didn't have the patience to fuck around with mods so i never touched it again. that being said, no i do not remember any names i gave the dogs in dao or da2 lmao and kaz has 2 cats, but he didn't name them
18. have you installed any mods?
yeah... a lot. in all three games. like, not currently because i don't even have dai installed and like i said, dao is modded but something went wrong and i never looked into it again. idk in what state is da2 tbh. but yes when i used to play them they were all modded
19. did your warden want to become a grey warden?
caiwyn hhhhhhh really nah. he was kinda conflicted. on one hand, of course he wanted to get out of the circle but on the other hand... he didn't want to die fighting darkspawn after like 2 days of freedom y'know. but he got better, t'was all fine after all
20. hawke’s personality?
ryon is hmmmmm nice and funny. simply said. in the keep i went with the diplomatic preset but in game he was a mix of blue/purple AND red when defending his friends and stuff. but mostly very kind and empathetic.
21. did you make matching armor for your companions in inquisition?
no i would always make something for the companions that would fit only them. like, i used to make orange/red armor for dorian, green/brown/white for solas, sera's plaid and red, viv with white/blue... but not matching with the whole squad
22. if your character(s) could go back in time to change one thing, what would they change?
:/ yeah. kaz has a lot of guilt and regret that keeps him up at night. he would change a lot of things that happened before the inquisition but one thing that happened during it- the slaughtering of his clan. he would have done something differently, to keep them safe and alive, if he only knew. lyrhis is so angry after trespasser, after discovering all that failed within her organization. she wouldn't have hired the iron bull, she would've pushed leliana to spy more and find out everything about everyone, to avoid finding it out later and feeling like a fool for not seeing it väellera wishes she stayed in the clan. in the forest. she never should've left. she never wanted this whole inquisition bullshit and it ruined her, broke her.
23. do you have any headcanons about your character(s) that go against canon?
yeah like a lot? dragon age is my playground now?? idk about the examples hhhhhhhhhh like,, väellera's spec is ranger from dao.... and others i guess idk i don't feel like writing about them lmao
24. are any of your characters based on someone?
time to expose myself yea, me lol except for ryon hawke, i'm nothing like ryon hawke. and väe, she’s based on.. someone else
25. who did you leave in the fade?
lyrhis- hawke. kaz- straud. väe- straud.
26. favourite mount?
the elks!! so pretty. but they sound like demons

Dragon Age Questions
I was tagged by @joufancyhuh thank you! This was fun! I’m gonna tag @kaleidoscopegirl @thesecondseal @rhetoricalrogue @lechatrouge673 @bugsieplusone @sasabelle-a and anyone else! Everyone else!
01) favorite game of the series?
DA2, hands down. I played DAI first and don’t get me wrong it’s a pretty game and a good game, but I love Hawke’s story. Someone who tries so hard and it’s never enough. I relate.
02) how did you discover Dragon Age?
I got a free copy of Inquisition with a new xbox, and honestly, hubs is the one who was oh it has dragons, Erin will like that! I wonder if he ever regrets that decision.
03) how many times you’ve played the games?
Origins- completely through 3 times? My dalish Elf who i didn’t even name her own name. Oops. Then my Arwen Tabris who smooches Zev and I actually have sorta fleshed out. I also have a Cousland and a dwarf that I never finished. I suffer from The Joining is Stupid syndrome.
DA2- I replay this constantly. I love Rose whether I am playing her as a mage or a rogue. I have played through with Selene twice maybe? I like all the choices! And how the choices change things! And well, Varric.
DAI- I’ve played through each race, as female, probably half a dozen times a piece. I really like being a Qunari lady, me and Sera swoon together. And it’s very different from other fantasy races I’ve played. And I love Val Cadash with her giant warhammer. The Iron Bull loves her too. Lol
04) favorite race to play as?
In all honesty? Elf. Elf me. Unless I’m playing Rose. Rose could never be an elf. So. But playing as a dwarf IS SO FUN and honestly far more relatable than playing a human.
05) favorite class?
For Origins and DA2, I prefer rogue. That being said, I hate playing rogue in DAI, so I mage it all the way.
06) do you play through the games differently or do you make the same decisions each time.
Depends on why I’m playing. For fun? I don’t care. For story plots? I keep it consistent unless I want to know how an action changes things (Hawke in the Fade :c). I do have playthroughs specifically for certain world sets too. Like World Asshole is basically thumbing the line of are my heroes even heroes anymore? Or just shiny monsters.
07) go-to adventuring group?
Origins- Zevran, Morrigan, Shale/Oghren.
Awakening- Valenna, Anders, Oghren.
DA2- Anders/Merrill, Isabella, Varric always. Rogues can tank if they try hard enough.
DAI- Varric, The Iron Bull, Viv or Dorian.
08) which of your characters did you put the most thought into?
Rose Hawke. Her past, present, and future is planned and mostly written. I adore her. She is how and why I discovered the how and why people write fanfic. And make headcanons. And Pinterest boards.
09) favorite romance?
VARRIC TETHRAS YOU COWARDS.
But in Origins, it’s Zevran. All day every day. I love me a character of questionable morals with a heart of gold. So complex, so murdery, so cute.
10) have you read any of the comics/books?
I think maybe I own them all? The books are a bit dry. But I love the comics. Superb art work, pretty good story telling. I read them mostly for lore reasons but they stay because they are good.
11) if you read them, which was your favorite book?
Until We Sleep
12) favorite DLCs?
Mark of the Assassin is just pure madness and Tallis makes me heart eye emoji. But The Descent and Jaws of Hakkon are my favorites. The music! The scenery! The stories!
13) things that annoy you?
I cannot romance Varric ever.
DAI’s gender and race locked romances. Some I get, Dorian and Sera because hi, representation matters. . But why can Cullen only romance elf/human ladies? Why on earth is Cass straight? The Iron Bull is only one who isn’t locked out of one thing or another and I love that. I love Bull. But like I feel we went meh good enough or something with the others. Especially after the everybody bangs everybody of DA2. Which was that trying to do a good or lazy writing? Dunno.
Fandom ruins a lot of things for me. I don’t want to take part in convos beyond my circle. Yikes.
Alistair. I get it, it’s tragic but ugh. I’m just too old for him. Same actually for Cullen, and for the above reason, Fandom. Yikes.
The Samson/Cullen thing they tried to replicate with Leliana and Calpurnia. It only worked for the boyos cause they are two sides of a coin. Unless Leliana is secretly a mage? Maybe she IS the ravens.
Consistent Canon doesn’t go here. They don’t even know who that is.
Why do you whitewash your own characters?
THE GODS DAMNED HINTERLANDS
I don’t want to kill the dragons. Let me recruit them.
Where the fuck is my Mabari: Inquisition Addition
14) Orlais or Ferelden?
KIRKWALL. Ferelden is quaint and Orlais is just gross. But has lots of shiny so it does rank higher than Ferelden.
15) Templars or Mages?
Mages, mostly because I want to dismantle the Chantry and continue the tradition of blowing it up. It’s bad. Templars just don’t have enough walking explosives for that.
16) if you have multiple characters, are they in different/parallel universes or in the same one?
I slap them all in the same verse if they are fleshed out in anyway. Rose Hawke and Val Cadash are best buds, business partners, and occasional bed warmers. Arwen Tabris is hiding from them at this point, she took that Warden Commander title and noped the fuck off around the world with Zev. She doesn’t want their drama too.
17) what did you name your pets? (mabari, summoned animals, mounts, etc)
I name the Mabari Hero. Let’s be honest, that mabari is the true hero of the first two games.
18) have you installed any mods?
I only started modding a few months ago and haven’t modded any of these yet.
19) did your Warden want to become a Grey Warden?
Arwen- Nope. But she really wanted to live, with that much blood on her hands it was join or hang.
20) Hawke’s personality?
She’ll help but she’s tired.
21) did you make matching armor for your companions in Inquisition?
If by matching you mean I dyed everything but the plaid weave of shame black then yes. Plaidweave is for liars.
22) if your character(s) could go back in time to change one thing, what would they change?
Arwen Tabris would kill Vaughan and his ilk at the wedding, not letting them take Shianni or the others.
23) do you have any headcanons about your character(s) that go against canon?
Rose Hawke is a rogue and a mage. Arwen Tabris is not getting married at the start of Origins. Val Cadash is still a respected member of the Carta while also being Inquisitor. Rose and Varric live happily ever after.
24) are any of your character(s) based on someone?
Rose is the one that has the most of me in her. The rest are just who they are.
26) favorite mount?
Dracolisks. Because the cowards make me kill dragons. Cowards!

MMMMM gonna be THAT person and ask alllll the questions for the quizzy as companion meme for whomever you desire :D
:0! under a read more for obvious reasons ljlkjlkjlkjkj
1, 8, and 9 answered here
2. How would they meet the Inquisitor? depends on how they came to the inquisition! if he came with idrilla, and honestly that means linayel too, then he would meet the quizzy upon arrival to skyhold, having sent word of their visit beforehand [though not too far before]. if by himself he would just show up and request audience with them -making himself available as an agent.
3. What would some of their cutscenes look like?!! his haven cutscene -if triggered with appropriate approval- would be in the woods outside the main settlement, he’d take the quizzy out into the quiet snow and share some dalish mead with them and offer conversation if they would like it and silence if they don’t. at the end he’ll tell them they were looking overwhelmed and taking a step back to breathe always aides with that.a high approval quizzy can get a cutscene at skyhold in the garden: da’ean tending plants until he notices quizzy walking over, at which point he’ll ask if quizzy has ever tended plants before and will offer to show them what he’s been growing.
4. What would their romance route look like? Would they be romancable?ever a quiet romantic da’ean is
5. If they romanced someone as Inquisitor, would they still fall for that person as a companion? How would that play out? How would they react to that person being romanced by the “new” Inquisitor?yes! so da’ean romances dorian and the iron bull in my canon, and depending on the quizzy he would romance an unromanced bull or dorian or both still. their relationship is pretty solid, though with da’ean as a companion there would be a few changes to their dynamic mostly in terms of da’ean doesn’t have to deal with the trauma of being quizzy lkjkljklj if either of them are romanced by the quizzy he’d approve so long as quizzy treats them well!
6. Write some of their party banter (in reaction to major events, scenery dialogue, or just shitting around. Askers can specify for which character/event, or leave it up to the writer).this honestly deserves a post of its own so like, i’ll do that.... later.....
7. What would be on their tombstone in the fade (what is their greatest fear)?da’ean’s tombstone read: Silenced and Forgotten
10. If Inquisition operated like DA:O, what would their gift items be? What would their approval and disapproval Feast Day items be?:o i don’t have the feast day dlc so i’ll skip that since i don’t have a base of ref for it lmao. his regular gift items would be flowers, dalish artifacts, and books. the two which would trigger cutscenes would be a small halla charm -a high approval quizzy would learn here about his sister, and an ancient looking book written in a mix of elvhen and arcaic tevene -da’ean would excitedly talk about it and with dorian’s help translate the book revealing it to be a dalish songbook.
11. How would they grow as a person? How would they compare at the end of the Inquisition as a companion to who they were as the Inquisitor?at the beginning da’ean is more reserved and less likely to actively engage with the quizzy, as he gets more comfortable and gets to know the quizzy he’ll open up quite drastically. in terms of character growth da’ean goes from someone who is still tied to the past and doesn’t look to the future into someone who actively makes the future the best it can be for himself and those he cares about -effectively taking his head out of his ass and learning to cope healthily with the past.
12. Do they believe the Herald of Andraste is really the Herald of Andraste?absolutely the fuck not. if the quizzy is also dalish there would be dialogue between them for how da’ean believes the quizzy is sent by mythal but otherwise no he doesn’t believe in the maker one whit, and andraste isn’t exactly in his good graces.
13. If the Herald didn’t have them tag along to prep the trebuchets, what would they do during the battle for Haven? (bonus: would they join in on the impromptu Dawn Will Come choir practice in the camp?)da’ean would organize the younger members of the inquisition and ensure they make it out of haven safely. and lmao he has a lovely singing voice but a chantry song will never fall from his lips
14. What nickname does Varric give them?songbird. which da’ean finds hilarious since his name means little bird
15. Without the influence of their decisions for the Inquisition, which of the companions do they get along with? Which ones do they bicker with?da’ean gets along well with bull and dorian [duh] and sera the best, though he is also friends with viv and solas and varric! he bickers the most with solas and cass.
16. What would the Fear Demon say to them in the Fade to try and discourage them?I HAVE. DIALOGUE I WROTE AGES AGO.... FROM MY LONGFIC SO I’M GONNA REDUCE, REUSE, RECYCLE THAT SHIT
“You’ll fail the Inquisition just like you failed your sister.” The silken voice of the Nightmare sent shivers running up Da’ean’s spine. He couldn’t explain the sense of wrong the voice gave him, even as the words it spoke wriggled their way into Da’ean’s thoughts like worms. The lie based on truth; how many times had he told himself it was his fault before, how many nights had he spent in fear of his own incompetence and inability to protect those he cared about. How long must he carry this guilt, a month ago he would have thought he would never be free of it. Helpless to his terror.
Now; as he saw the snarl on Dorian’s lips, the hard glint in Bull’s eye, the outrage pouring out from Solas’s entire body, he knew, he knew it was not through any fault of his own. His soiled past was not something he could change, but right here, right now, he could move on. He could chose to leave everything that burdened him in the hands of those who came with him. He could ease the burdens they carried without fear of making things worse.“Doubt me all you want, but you know the truth. It’s your fault the slavers caught her, and it will be your fault when Corypheus captures the world.” The Nightmare must be feeling desperate, it had already gone after Hawke and Stroud, and now it was focusing solely on Da’ean. The breath-warm air and disorienting light was causing him enough problems, but if the Nightmare grew bored of him, he would move on to his next target.
“If you think those are new thoughts Nightmare, you are dead wrong.” They were close, they had to be close to the rift. If Da’ean could hold his attention until they could flee, the rest of the part wouldn’t have to deal with it.“I’ve accepted my mistakes, I know what I’ve done.” The hard knot of old anxiety in Da’ean’s chest was gradually unravelling; his newfound beliefs, hard won and solid, slowing taking its place. “I am stronger for knowing myself, what about you Nightmare? What have you done that you regret, what things haunt your dreams?”
maker that’s old but i’m not gonna edit it bc i’m lazy and its late lkjljlkjklj
17. Where do they hang out in the Winter Palace? What’s their thoughts on the nobles/The Game?he’d be out on the open. area. thing??? where dorian is stan-THE COURTYARD, he’d be chillin in the courtyard. da’ean couldn’t give a nug’s ass about the nobles or the game and will show some harsh contempt for those in the palace with their noses in the air around him like he’s not even there.
18. What’s their reaction to a dragon showing up?“fuck this but also fuck this” and high fives bull
19. Once Corypheus is beaten, what do they do during the party? Do they stay with the Inquisition, or go somewhere else? What could the Inquisitor do to convince them to stay?during the party he’d be talking/drinking with sera and after the inquisition depends on his romance options. if he romanced dorian he’d follow him to tevinter bc Fuck You Bioware eat my entire ass to make sure he’s safe and to chill in the background since there’s no going back home. if he romanced bull or bull and dorian he would travel with the chargers as the newest member to the crew. a high approval quizzy could convince them to stay only if romanced
20. How do they react to learning abominations can retain their consciousness and identity, and even live peacefully with their spirits/demons, as seen in Stone-Bear Hold?psst. pssssssst... the dalish already know and you can take that hc from my cold dead hands.... BUT he’d be excited to see it recognized and would want to talk with the augur extensively
21. What do they think of the discoveries made in the Deep Roads? Do they make any comments on anything?Buck Fuckin Wild is da’ean’s take on the deep roads. he doesn’t like the claustrophobic feel they give him, he does have Some Thoughts on the titans and talks about them with idrilla.
22. If you have another Inquisitor, how would those two get along, specifically?UUUHHHHH i have his older sister idrilla who isn’t a quizzy normally but in an au she might have been the quizzy and they get along great!
23. In trespasser, what “gift” would they give the Inquisitor, if any?a halla charm! one linayel carved for just this purpose and it’s threaded on a strip of leather.
24. What are their plans for after the Exalted Council? Will the Inquisition staying in tact or being disbanded make a difference?he goes back to doing what he was doing before it, it doesn’t change much unless he was romanced and then its dependant on player choice
25. In the alternate reality, if they were corrupted with lyrium, how do they act? What’s their attitude about the end of the world/their inevitable death? oh fuck da’ean would fall deeper into depression, lose all sense of time/meaning and he would just end up with total and complete apathy

1. If not for the Conclave, what would drive your character to join the Inquisition? alex has a later entrance, like cole or dorian—she offers her services as one of the higher up carta bosses for lyrium smuggling for the inquisition, since you’re going to need it for mages or templars either way 2. How would they meet the Inquisitor? when deb caridin (yes, that caridin, but she was cast to the surface for other reasons) finds herself booked for an audience with a mob boss, she wasn’t really expecting... alex. sophisticated, feral alex. hair trailing on the floor and a ring on each finger, deb was probably quite taken aback. 3. What would some of their cutscenes look like? alex likes to hang out in implausible locations, so a lot of her cutscenes would require deb actually getting to her. in haven, that means finding alex climbing the frozen waterfall, or on some buildings accessible by ladder. in skyhold, it means finding her on the turrets, or hanging out in the garden with her plants. 4. What would their romance route look like? Would they be romanceable? not romanceable. 5. If they romanced someone as Inquisitor, would they still fall for that person as a companion? How would that play out? How would they react to that person being romanced by the “new” Inquisitor? deb is like 45 so i dont think shed go after sera and yes, alex would still date sera. theyre baby gays. smoochy smoochy 6. Write some of their party banter (in reaction to major events, scenery dialogue, or just shitting around. Askers can specify for which character/event, or leave it up to the writer). in a cave: Starting to get claustrophobic in here. in Val Royeaux: Do you think any of the nobles would scream if I just... rubbed mud all over my face? seeing a dragon: Holy shit?! Oh Stone. Oh, Maker, oh, Stone, that’s a motherfucking dragon. at the Winter Palace: Y’know... don’t tell anyone else, but this stuff? It’s alright with me. in the Fade (if already encountered a dragon): shit, can we go back to the dragon? Thanks. (if not encountered a dragon): *shivers* I’m really not supposed to be here, you know. 7. What would be on their tombstone in the fade (what is their greatest fear)? Forgetting 8. What kind of Inquisitor would drive them to leave the Inquisition/confront them about their actions (what gets their approval low? what does that scene look like)? an inquisitor that wasnt interested in making deals with shady criminals, for instance. or an inquisitor that only saw alex as a carta asset 9. Where in Skyhold would they be found? (e.g. Cole is in the tavern rafters, Leliana in the top of the tower, Varric in the throne room, etc.) see 3 10. If Inquisition operated like DA:O, what would their gift items be? What would their approval and disapproval Feast Day items be? gift items: plant cutting, toy rocking horse, bottle of champagne, carved gem feastday items: red lyrium stone, Pet Elfroot (player nameable; sits on the gazebo railing in the garden) 11. How would they grow as a person? How would they compare at the end of the Inquisition as a companion to who they were as the Inquisitor? at the beginning of inquisition she’s cold, feral, and more than a little hostile (a sane inquisitor would kick her out, but she can provide valuable resources, so). at the end of inquisition (her “personal quest” per se is to assassinate the head of the carta. she can then either be persuaded to take their place, or disband them), she’s either harnessing the full power of the carta for the inquisition with no pulling stops, or forming an elite scouting team to get the same effect 12. Do they believe the Herald of Andraste is really the Herald of Andraste? She knows they’re... special, but no. She is a follower of the stone, even though she thinks deep down that the stone has rejected her 13. If the Herald didn’t have them tag along to prep the trebuchets, what would they do during the battle for Haven? (bonus: would they join in on the impromptu Dawn Will Come choir practice in the camp?) she shows up once u get to skyhold actually so um we 14. What nickname does Varric give them? yall dont @ me but.... Pebbles. or prongs, cause of her daggers 15. Without the influence of their decisions for the Inquisition, which of the companions do they get along with? Which ones do they bicker with? gets along w dorian, bull, sera, varric, and, surprisingly, viv. only sometimes, though. doesnt get along w solas, cole, cass, or cullen. wary around leli. likes josie okay. blackwall shes neutral on. 16. What would the Fear Demon say to them in the Fade to try and discourage them? that no matter what she does, she’s already forgotten her mother’s voice, her family’s laugh, her home, and some day, she won’t even know that she’s forgotten 17. Where do they hang out in the Winter Palace? What’s their thoughts on the nobles/The Game? Alex hangs out in the garden, duh. She can be found talking with the servant that cultivates the roses, discussing the best ways to allow them to flourish (if inq passes without saying anything to her, snippets of their conversation can be heard). Alex LOVES the lavish life but hates The Game—it’s stupid petty bullshit and she just wants to drink champagne and wear heels without worrying about whether her neighbor is going to stab her. 18. What’s their reaction to a dragon showing up? alex voice: i- kdsfjhsdkfjhsdkjsfd?????? is h. is he like. gonna kill us 19. Once Corypheus is beaten, what do they do during the party? Do they stay with the Inquisition, or go somewhere else? What could the Inquisitor do to convince them to stay? She either wants to leave to lead the carta or her elite scouts, but the inquisitor can persuade her to stay and continue using her talents (and also through some money negotiations) 22. If you have another Inquisitor, how would those two get along, specifically? deb and alex are... at odds, at best. deb sees alex as a lost little sheep that just needs some nudging, and in some ways, she kind of is. alex sees deb as an overbearing mother that doesn’t know what she’s been through. theyre both right, and through some arguing and loyalty questing, they manage to come to some sort of truce.

Enjoy writing!
Thank you so much @dirthara-mama ! This was a nice writing exercise for me! Also every response is pretty long and sorta encompasses what Evelyn did throughout the Inquisition, but I thought it easier to have them sorta react to the choices she made? Idk! And sorry if any sound OOC! This is the first time I’ve posted dialogue from anyone in the DA universe :D (excitingly scary I might add lol!)
Tagging: Oof, idk who’s already done this, and of course no obligation! @ironbullsmissingeye @underthedreadwolfsgaze @felorinbailenshield2 @nemichen and @wardenofmyheart !
I put things under the cut cause it be long
How the Inner Circle views Evelyn Lavellan!
(Real quick! There’s mentions of a character named Veil, she is my qunari OC that I HC in my canon that she’s part of the inner circle, though I do not do a reaction from her because well yeah) (I also pictured this as the characters telling a close friend about Ev, and not like a strange interviewer or something)
Blackwall: “Despite the lie I lived, she brought me back and made me a proper Grey Warden. That girl gave me a second chance I never asked for, but perhaps the one I needed. I feel stronger for having joined the Inquisition, came out a better man. I’m not the only one with that story here, she has that kind of influence on a person. I’ve been present for every judgement she judged and she had found a way to make the prisoner work for us or sent them off for a second chance. Like that one Avaar that threw goats at our walls, Maker that one was the first person she judged and he walked out a happy man! Exiled to hunt Venatori, then a while later his tribe got their own land and didn’t become bandits! (chuckles) Like I said, that girls leaves you a better person. I wish she’s see how helpful she’s been. Evelyn never feels like she’s done enough. But I’m grateful to her.”
Cassandra: “Evelyn as the Inquisitor has been...interesting to say the least. I know she means well, I just don’t know if it’s really the right choice she’s made at times. I’m thankful that everything worked out the way it did, though. She convinced me to rebuild the Seekers, she...ugh, she helped get Varric’s next book for me. She knew I liked his series, and I’m flattered. Evelyn has told me that she admires the energy I emit and asked how I do it. (chuckles) I asked her how she made the hard choices, and we both responded to our questions as we just improvise. She’s definitely grown on me, I’m sure of it. Evelyn’s been, thankfully, respectful of everyone’s beliefs. Well, except believing that she is the Herald, that time was frustrating for all of us to say the least. But, she doesn’t believe in either the Maker or the Elvhen gods as gods, which surprised me, but I...(sighs) she doesn’t need my judgement. Evelyn’s a good person, a good friend.”
Cole: “Screams that aren’t heard. She keeps screaming but nothing comes out. Hushed whispers from invisible scars haunt her. A weight no one sees. ‘Help me. Please.’ whispered into the pillow. Once petrified by dreams but in wake is more terrifying. She escapes, only coming back to help. Like me. I cannot make her forget, or anyone, but I feel more. She likes knowing someone wants to help. Smiles more now, genuine. Her friends finally heard her screams. A warm embrace fills her, the urge to yell dies down like a starving flame. Safe. More confident, she helps more, wants others to feel the same calm. I’m more human because of her. We like to garden and feel the earth beneath our feet and against our hands. Too busy to think of bad thoughts. It helps.”
Cullen: “The Inquisitor can change her mind too quickly in my opinion. Though, she’s hardened over time. She did help me overcome my lyrium addiction and support me through the process. I could feel she felt nervous around me at times, maybe it was because I’m an ex-Templar and she’s a mage. Which is why it surprised me that she was supportive during my recovery and how many chess matches she partook with me. We’re either matched at wits, or she just lengthens the game to keep me on edge, which, she’s always won. I wish I could’ve gotten to know her better, though, and despite my advice she would always use the Inquisitions forces as a last resort which I hardly agreed with. But, what’s done is done. Might I add, she has a companion dragon? Do you know how nervous that made me? A dragon!”
Dorian: “Evelyn? She’s one of the truest friends I’ve ever had. At first I was wary since she conscripted the mages. But she changed for the better, no doubt under my influence. I question her taste in literature, but I dare say she reads more than I do. How she can find time like that baffles me. She gets extraordinarily excited to fight dragons mind you, despite my protests. I...I think her and Bull consider it to be a date? Hardly romantic, maybe she got the idea from reading Varric’s books (scoffs). Ev told me about the meeting with my father and accompanied me to Redcliffe. She didn’t have to, she could’ve ignored it, she made time to help me personally. Though, she’s helped everyone personally, but my situation wasn’t dealing with a qunari alliance or a certain dwarf’s girlfriend from leaking red lyrium to Corypheus. I...I’m (sigh) grateful to call Evelyn Lavellan a friend. She’s kind and accepting and treats everyone with a kind of equity that is so rare.”
(slight nsfw in this one) The Iron Bull: “On the field, it’s like having a raging lightning storm with a fire tornado working with you. The look of determination and concentration on her face during battle is just so...(grunts). She’s my Kadan, beautiful, strong, intelligent, and I’m proud to be her Vhenan. We’ve shared many moments of all kinds together, helped me in many ways, realize things, helped me become the best I can be. I only hope I’ve helped her in the same way. The Chargers have already considered her a part of us with how much she hangs around, and fuck, if it wasn’t for the Inquisition, I’d ask her to join. Ev’s always fun to be around, she’s got the best jokes, Krem groans ‘cause she’s strengthened my pun game. And damn, does she have a fantastic body, and I get to see it in all its glory almost daily. The scars, her tits, the faces she makes when we go rough, yeah, she’s great. We’re great.”
Josephine: “Madame de Fer and I have to constantly remind her about her presentation to the world. Oh, I remember the stress at the Ball and having to watch over everyone almost like children. It’s also surprised me on how much culture she had not experienced before. Did you know, she’s never been to a full theater performance before? I made sure to change that as quickly as I could. I feel honored to be the first to introduce her to a variety of customs, she did help me annul the contract on my family after all. And on top of that, she respected my choice to doing it my way. She’s been amazing and got to witness me annihilate Cullen at Wicked Grace, and applauded me for doing so! I adore her and love the challenge she gave me during our time in the Inquisition. She came to me a lot for my use in diplomacy which, obviously, is something I respect. Even if...even if it didn’t save her clan, I thought she would hate me for failing, but she didn’t. I still feel awful and I apologize whenever it comes up, but she’s the one reassuring me? Don’t get me wrong, she avoided me for a bit after I told her, well, no one saw her for the rest of the night...but...oh, that got sad, I am thankful for her kindness.”
Leliana: “I won’t lie, at first I thought her compassion and mercy were a weakness, but she taught me otherwise. Ever since the death of her clan, I’ve been trying to get information on any survivors, she doesn’t deserve such a devastating loss, especially when it was during the middle of the Inquisition. She was always keen on listening to my suggestions at the war table and used my forces whenever possible. I think she was interested in adopting a nug from me before she started to raise a dragon! We all kept eyes on Elyana the dragon but somehow things just worked out. (chuckles) She did ask me to train her in becoming a bard, though I think she’s much more interested in what Maryden does than being a spy. Evelyn reminds me so much of the Hero of Ferelden. It took some convincing to get her to realize the severity of the oppression of mages and annulled the conscription. She was quite sheltered from the rest of the world in her clan and didn’t know much about the mage-templar situation. I think that’s why she listened to both Vivienne and I like mentors and (chuckles) parental figures as she’s called Vivienne mom a few times. All in all, Evelyn is precious and great, and I’m glad to have known her.”
Sera: “Oh her? Yeah, she’s fun to be around ‘n stuff. Elf, though, yeah. Not too elfy, so that’s good. Got too into her own glow, though. Rift mage or whatever, that’s too mage-y with that weird magic shite. And it’s a bit unnervin’ innit? I mean, she’s good, helps stick it to nobles in the best friggin’ way. (giggles) And we got to prank her whole lot, she don’t mind my cookies of shite on the roof either. Ev wants to be like people people, I can tell she’s different that way, but Viv keeps makin’ her wear that friggin’ sash and shite. Makes her, Ev, not seem like people, right. I like her and I don’t at the same time, yeah? Isn’t too elfy, good, but she’s too mage-y. Fun ‘n funny but can’t seem to make up her mind for shite. Like, listenin’ to Viv but also pieing nobles in the face. Look, she’s nice an’ all and she’s gettin’ there, but I think she needs a bit more pies to the face, yeah? (giggles) Or Bull to set her right when her arse needs it. (giggles) Get it? Eugh, never mind.”
Solas: “It took time to warm up to the Inquisitor, for she always kept people at a distance. For a time I thought...no. Perhaps she changed her mind. It was for the best anyways, I’m partially grateful that things did not escalate further. I got to train her in the ways of the Rift Mage, and in doing so I learned just how wise her spirit is. How adaptable and intelligent, it made me rethink about the Dalish, but she assured me it wasn’t them that made her that way. She has a tendancy to infuriate me, but I respect her will to listen as to why it does. Evelyn still has much to learn, and it’s been interesting to see her grow from her experiences. I know she abhors the Vallaslin on her face as she did not wish to partake in that tradition. Maybe...hopefully in time, there will be a way to safely remove it. As for the choices she has made, there are a few I have questioned. Thankfully, she took my advice on how to proceed with the Vir Abelasan. Evelyn Lavellan is young and ignorant, but I hold her to a high respect for her willingness to learn, help, restore, and fix her mistakes.”
Varric: “Blossom has been through a ton of shit. Made a lot of choices that she regretted. When Hawke came by, she talked Blossom into rethinking on her choice to deal with the mages and went back on the conscription, letting the mages be free within the Inquisition. I know Hawke’s been keeping in contact with her and they’re friends. Which is great! I taught her how to play Wicked Grace, heh, she’s not very good at it but she plays hard. Well, as in, she bets a lot and usually loses it all but weirdly, she doesn’t mind and is very enjoyable company. Her, Veil, Buttercup, Tiny, and I play cards regularly together. We all exchange stories, chuckle at her and Veil’s bickering and shitty pun wars with Tiny. Best parts of those are when Buttercup groans and usually leaves at that point. I feel bad for Blossom because she’s so nice, merciful, forgiving, and caring an this damn world of events keep forcing her through tough and impossible shit, and it’s broken her a few times. We helped pick up her pieces and continue on. She’s young and inexperienced. Shit, before the Inquisition, she’d never killed a person before. Don’t get me wrong, I’m grateful to have a hero in this mess, I just think Andraste or luck or whatever chose unfairly. Or maybe her kind heart is exactly what we all need. That part about her hasn’t changed despite everything and I respect that deeply. I hope she’s able to live a happy life after all this.”
Vivienne: “Oh, Evelyn is a dear, very sweet and respectful. She listened to my teachings very well, especially on etiquette and it surprised me how much she already did out of habit considering she was raised in a Dalish clan on different customs. Though, she did say she didn’t follow Dalish traditions. We share many evenings together and hold conversations while she lets me braid her hair. I found it amusing when I helped her get ready for the Halamshiral Ball and had to teach not only her, but Iron Bull as well, on how to dance. Evelyn was easier to teach because she knows how to dance solo, but never had a partner. I remember she hated the Ball because she had to fight in a dress, with tight braids in her hair, makeup, and various accessories without messing any of it up lest she becomes suspicious or scandalous to the guests. Sadly, she despises The Game, though she’s very good at it. It was glorious. At the Winter Palace she went from being seen like a glorified servant to being on top and holding everyone at the court on strings like puppets along with their respect. Oh, a great sense of fashion and a good eye for decorations, though she dislikes constantly looking and dressing as nobility and I must remind her consistently on why it’s important. I do enjoy her company and I wish we saw more eye to eye on the subject on Circles and mages. At first we did, but as time went on she started agreeing more and more with our dear Spymaster.”
lol all in all, Ev is kind, caring, and smart. She got along with basically everyone, even if they didn’t see eye to eye on everything. Though other than Bull, I think she’s closest with Vivienne, Varric, and Dorian ( and my OC Veil, but I don’t post about her often)
