DAI OCs Masterlist!
Organized by last name alphabetically, more minor ocs of mine not mentioned- my wardens are posted separately here. Some of these ocs also have backstories spanning elements of DAII, but most of their appearances are in DAI. IDs are in alt text in interest of streamlining the already very long post.
Astila [she/her]: An ex-chasind driven from her homeland in the Wilds during the Fifth Blight. She spent a short time as a mercenary; when the sky opened she took it as a sign from her gods and she joined up as one of Leliana's agents. She's known for being quick-tempered but playful and generally friendly with a brutality in battle.

Tumblr media
Achar Aanavi [ze/zir/zem, she/her]: Born in the Denerim alienage and left young to travel to Rivain in search of work to support zir's mother after zir's father's death. Ze met zir Raiders and joined up as a cabin boy, crawling up the ranks and switching crews several times before finding zir current Raider crew that ze has been with for many years as the first mate! Known for being quiet and authoritative in spite of short stature.
Tumblr media
Ilya Abramov [he/they]: He grew up in the Disciples of Andraste. After the Warden slaughtered nearly all of those in Haven after being attacked, he lost both his parents and older sister. He left Haven at around nine or ten and traveled as a merchant for several years before returning to honor the dead. He eventually joins the Inquisition as a scout after the destruction of Haven, and can be found in the Hinterlands scouting or in Skyhold walking around. Known for a nervous demeanor but a brutality in battle among other scouts.
Playlist link
Tumblr media
Meraad Adaar [any]: Meraad grew up in Par Vollen as an Antaam member. He was sent to Seheron for military assignment and ascended the ranks there– after about seven years there he was reassigned after contracting soul sickness (PTSD) after striking a blow against a close friend in his platoon after they defected to the Fog Warriors. He corresponded with others and escaped on a ship bound for Rivain with them. They joined up the Valo-Kas mercenaries where he became known for his easygoing demeanor and skill with leadership. Shokrakar eventually made him second in command.
Meraad took on the responsibility of raising another mercenary's child, Hissra. Six years later, an elven child named Ophir attempted to pickpocket him in a busy market, and they became his ward. He joined the Inquisition as a contracted mercenary and fell for a tranquil named Lenamar Dax during his time within the Inquisition. Spent considerable time badgering Cassandra about pursuing the cure for tranquility after her personal quest. Often known for being a gentle giant with a skill for leading in battle.
Playlist link
Tumblr media
Hissra Adaar[she/he]: Quiet but self-assured, Hissra is known for being a bit difficult to read. Born to Tal-Vashoth parents, she was raised among the Valo-Kas. Her parents died during a mission in her teens and Meraad and Shaye Adaar took over her care, teaching her how to lead a group. Meraad was especially close to her. Joins the Inquision either as an agent, or in the Inky!au, becomes the Inquisitor and romanced Blackwall. After DAI she devotes herself to fighting back the Qunari invasion of Rivain.
Playlist link
Tumblr media
Fen'an Alahannon[he/they/neos]: My personal favorite (biased) (in love with him). He was originally born in Tevinter in servitude and his mother escaped with him to the Anderfels, where the Alahannon clan took him in shortly before her death. Despite his skill with a battleaxe, he's better known for his skill making clothes and textiles.
He's known for being very protective of those close to him, particularly his adopted sister, and only went south due to his sister wanting to join the Inquisition. He stays on as an agent of the Inquisition to watch out for her, though in his time there he falls for Asgeir Brynjarson, an avvarian mage possessed by a spirit of hope. He leaves with Asgeir after Corypheus is defeated to take Dorian up on an offer to help the Lucerni in Tevinter. In the two years before Trespasser he spends most of his time freeing slaves, killing slavers, and working with Dorian to further anti-slavery causes including a measures which make it easier for ex-slaves to become liberati.
Personal playlist, Fengeir playlist, Fenyuo playlist
Tumblr media
Von Bemot[he/him]: Technically his full name is Vonstein, but nobody calls him that. My Kal-Sharok dwarven oc! He became head of his family after his older sibling passed and his parents died young [likely from Blight explosure]. Took over their trading in Tevinter but left to help the Inquisition help fight the Blight in a concrete manner during Inquisition by joining after contacting Josephine. Eventually pursued a grey warden named Dmitri after Adamant. Known for being friendly but still offputting and a bit strange with an eerie ability to sense nearing darkspawn similarly to a grey warden.
Haven't fleshed him out a lot unfortunately but I would like to <3
Tumblr media
Markas Cadash[he/any]: A well known member of the Carta who spent his youth smuggling, though he rose up the ranks quickly in favor of making the deals with other Carta houses. Known for being calculating and good at his job, though it falls to the wayside slightly when he becomes Inquisitor. He falls for Josephine and though he continues his pragmatic way of getting things done, he quickly grew to respect her ability to talk people into deals and began using her approach. Became a better person as a result of falling for her, but still a bit cold and self-serving at his core, and uses the Inquisition to his whims more than my others OCs do.
Playlist
Tumblr media
Ithelan Eanmanen[he/neos]: My partner's favorite of my blorbos <3. Grew up in Antiva with his clan and had a natural penchant for lying and charming his way into information. After a clanmate died due to his carelessness, he became more interested in information to keep people he loves safe. Later joined the Inquisition as one of Leliana's top agents and fell in love with Dhaveira Alahannon (Fen'an's adoptive sister) who he'd met once previously and was head over heels for.
Personal playlist, modern au playlist, ithedhavi playlist
Tumblr media
Davgon Hofer[he/him]: My somewhat underdeveloped falconeer avvarian oc which I have yet to flesh out too much. Formerly lived in Nevarra but left and later joined Fennec-tooth Hold. He has magic but it's not very powerful and he prefers to use a bow. Known for a quiet, soft-spoken demeanor and skill with hunting. Joins up with the Inquisition as an agent of Leliana's, helping to train her birds and often found in the rookery. Pursued by a rivaini dalish woman named Nadasa during his time in the Inquisition, drawn to her self certainty when speaking with him.
Tumblr media
Elgara Lavellan[she/he]: In her early 30s, Elgara is self-assured and well designed to natural leading. She's a pragmatist with a secret playful streak that Sera and Solas often bring out in her. She manages to maneuver well enough to save her entire clan and give them a modicum of political power, and frequently sends letters to her ward, Aya, who is an up and coming hunter. Romances Solas across the course of her game but eventually grew frustrated and exhausted by his cagey nature around sharing knowledge, and breaks things off in favor of pursuing Sera near the end of the game who is a welcome warmth after Solas' frequent chill.
Playlist
Tumblr media
Nydha Lavellan[he/him]: Initially bright-eyed and excitable, he was quite happy and sweet person. Often ruled by emotion and a bit immature, he gradually becomes pessimistic and slides into many obvious fits of depression as he gets closer to the end of DAI. Has a lot of unresolved PTSD from the unexpected and fraught decisions he made which led to the death of (most of) clan Lavellan.
He romances Dorian, who is one of the few places he finds solace, and is quite close friends with Cole. He also romances Rajmael Anise, a dalish OC of @secretly-seraph1m 's who took it upon himself to become his personal guard. Rajmael helps him guard his space and time better, and helps him grieve his family after he gets news of the death of his clan.
Personal playlist, Rajnydha playlist
Tumblr media
Mellita Trevelyan[she/he/neos]: A surly, sharp tongued ex-circle turned blood mage who escaped to join the more extreme sections of the mage rebellion with a revolutionary spirit and chip on her shoulder. Originally discovered to be a mage quite young, she had little mind for Circle politics and used her nobility for perks until she became disowned. She has a secret soft side, often brought out by Lark Orrick, her eventual partner who originally was in Ostwick circle before his own escape years before her own, and her tertiary partner, Sammael. She's insane and I need her so bad <3

multiples of 6 for dinah & elgara for the inquisitor and/or romanticism meme!
thank you tabby!!
6. What is their opinion of the Seekers of Truth?
DINAH hates the Chantry and all its associates. When she learns the Seekers have the ‘cure’ for Tranquility, she goes ham. While she learns grudging respect for Cassandra’s faith, she will never believe in the goals of the Seekers. ELGARA is more impressionable, but she still doesn’t like the Chantry all that much. Chantry secret agents, in her opinion, have too much power.
12. How does your Inquisitor deal with traitors?
DINAH wants to know why they betrayed the organization, and she never stoops to torture. Specifically with Alexius (not an Inquisition traitor, but still), she puts him to work researching and values his input, as he’s intelligent (like her). ELGARA looks to her advisors on this matter, mostly Leliana, so most are taken out quietly after being questioned.
18. What does our Inquisitor think about “the game”? Would they participate in it? Did they enjoy the time at the Winter Palace?
DINAH has no patience for it (as you might imagine). She actually did enjoy the Winter Palace, because she got to make a big scene about Mage Rights in the middle of the ballroom and it was fun for her (Josie had to play a lot of cleanup, but Dinah enjoyed it). ELGARA thinks it’s stupid, even if she’s polite enough not to say that. Most high-born worries are silly in her opinion — Lavellan isn’t a terribly destitute clan, but she’s still elven, and she thinks these squabbles over land that isn’t really yours are just that: squabbles.
24. Who do they take with them on their journeys?
DINAH’S party is Dorian, Cole, and Blackwell (bestie, son, and boyfriend). ELGARA’S is Dorian (he’s my fave lmao), Varric, and Iron Bull or Solas.
30. Ferelden or Orlais?
DINAH prefers Ferelden — honestly, I debate making her Ferelden instead of a Marcher from time to time, but even if she is a Marcher, she’s certainly not Orlesian. ELGARA loves Orlais! It makes her sad, sure, but there’s rich history there. So many Elven artifacts!
Which part of Thedas does your Inquisitor enjoy the most venturing to? Which area would they rather avoid?
DINAH loves going to the Hinterlands and spends a lot of time there. However, the Storm Coast makes her question whether she actually enjoys Ferelden (it smears her face paint). ELGARA’S favorite region is the Exalted Plains, because of the elves there :) She also enjoys the Forbidden Oasis, it’s a great place to take baths.
Which bed does your Inquisitor sleep in at night (if they ever sleep)?
DINAH uses the Ferelden bed, and ELGARA uses the simple Orlesian bed.

We previously had a whole Discourse Session about x reader fic on this blog, but I just saw this in visual form on my dashboard (Blorbo hugging/kissing a greyed-out silhouette instead of the artist's OC), and I am back to thinking how being expected to insert my OC into the author-prepared slot is not my thing (and makes me a bit sad, actually) because... all my OCs fall for their love interest, even if it's the same person, for different reasons.
Isk and Wyll are childhood friends who keep being torn apart by circumstances but inevitably find each other. Mariposa and Wyll are gender-swapped Beauty and the Beast; he is the radiant guiding light that inspires her to rise above her Dark Urge. Wilhelm is a classic sad dad, so his partners Wyll and Karlach help him find joy and whimsy in life again. Or, for example, Alyrr stirs Halsin's heart because she is kind to him, while Cinder falls for Halsin because he is kind to *her*; same goes for Niamh and Zevlor vs Dee and Zevlor.
Likewise, in other fandoms, Azelma Cadash and Blackwall initially despise each other because she thinks he's a boring straight-laced fuddy duddy, and he thinks she's a spoiled princess luxuriating in her father's crime spoils and wearing a Stop Being Poor T-shirt, but as their friendship progresses, each discovers that the other is a more nuanced person than their first impressions might suggest. While Naali Adaar teams up with him as Protector of the Small, and Adiba Adaar turns his head with her incredible Nerd Powers (Nana Lavellan is somewhere at the intersection of that, because she is both a nerd and a professional babysitter in her clan). Thraer Aeducan bonds with Morrigan like a golden retriever excitedly following her around; and Revas Mahariel sits across the room from her like they are a cat and she is also a cat, slowly getting accustomed to each other. Nella Amell gets to Zevran with her sweetness and faith in people, and Zevran gets to Brianna Cousland with his roguish charms, even as she appears to have hidden herself behind a wall of ice and grief.
Alisa Shepard is a neurotic perfectionist, Natalie Shepard is an enthusiastic, confident space adventurer; Garrus loves each of them. And in my newest obsession, Cyberpunk, my current rough and tough but secretly artistic street kid V is going to employ different tactics when convincing Takemura to ditch Arasaka through the power of love (shhh, let me have my headcanon) compared to a hyper-stressed, disillusioned corpo V and a happy-go-lucky nomad V I also have planned. And so on and so on and so on.
Can all these different love stories truly be expressed through x reader fics? Even if x reader is mostly focused on smut, I am not sure how much maneuvering you can do while leaving it generic. Again, going back to my own OCs, Arryn Lavellan, a hot-headed 20-something Dalish First, is a virgin who pretends to be sexually experienced to win Respect Points, and then learns the lesson that he did not have to do that; while Elgara Lavellan, a Circle mage and ex-Tranquil, is also a virgin due to her life circumstances, and her lesson is that there's no shame in having a "first time" after 40. Cinder the Tav is a half-Orc, half-Tiefling, used to being fetishized by intimate partners because of her appearance, so she gets her mind blown when Halsin worships her body as a great gift of nature. Laulu the Tav is a half-Orc, half-Halfling, a humble farm girl with dreams of someone who will love her for her, not her glamorous elf bard persona (courtesy of Disguise Self), so she gets *her* mind blown when Gale takes her, the real her, on a journey through the stars. But Amaya, a full Halfling this time, is a vengeful paladin who used to be married to an evil wizard that entrapped her in illusions of love and bliss in order to manipulate her to do his bidding, so she opts for the humble tryst in the woods, blowing *Gale's* mind this time as he realizes that he can be wanted for more than his magic. So for all of them, even smut will flow differently.
Some anons I got argued that inserting your OC into a love story focused on a canon character is too self-centered; you have to give other people a chance to imagine *their* OCs in this blank spot! And I guess it works for some people (a lot of people, in fact), but I would rather write stories and make art about specific OCs and read stories and admire art with *your* specific OCs and all the endless ways they can kiss that Blorbo.

allaros lavellan and the last few years.
actually, it's post trespasser, since the inquisition stopped existing, but the little guy decided to go a bit off the rails even without solas.
there are different paths!!
the orlesian court. in any case, the inquisition wasn't disbanded. lavellan wanted to keep at least some power. the main concern was the easiness with which the nobility could write him off otherwise, at least legally. they would find loopholes anyway, and lavellan didn't want to give them more. he retained the title of the lord inquisitor and started his work as the left hand of the divine. allaros' personal goal of being the figure head of the religious organization (and the reason he didn't walk off the battlements) was to put and support as many elves and mages in a position of the authority. he kept close ties with fiona, charter, merrill and the halamshiral's alienage, put briala behind the throne of orlais and put steeled leliana in the position of the divine. he watched her letting the mages govern themselves. he watched his loyal childhood friend elgara building up an elvhen theater and making their culture seen, even through the backlash from humans.
corruption. despite his noble intentions, all the years lavellan held this position, the iron bull had to watch how his partner became more ruthless and at times cruel. allaros did things and spoke speeches impossible to imagine coming from him years ago, when there was the inquisition. bull had to listen to allaros saying the opportunity to kill any of his noble opponents with a snap of his fingers brought him peace. it became more and more apparent that lavellan was considering that with all seriousness.
fall out. despite understanding this was his kadan's coping mechanism, bull grew worried. sometimes less for allaros and more because of him. coming from the qunari background, the iron bull hated orlesian politics just as much. then he had to see his partner molding into the same being. not the frilly rich one, the stop at nothing one. although allaros haven't yet crossed the boundary of punching down, it became apparent that this role deteriorated him, and something had to be done.
no place to belong. allaros initially comes from the orlesian alienage. he loathes orlesian court. lavellan also took away the opportunity to come back as the keeper of his clan from himself (due to. layers of a conflict). basically, after the trespasser there is no path for him to walk and feel at peace. at the same time, fate didn't create any place that would fit him better.
the bull's chargers, for instance. although he would've been a welcome member, lavellan maintained a somewhat stationary position since politics demanded his constant attention. that was contrary to the iron bull's opinion: for him, it was rather his partner's constant anxiety that if he let go of the reigns, all the progress would be reversed. this fear was reinforced by the ameridan's story. however, the iron bull continued getting contracts from orlesian nobles, and allaros, being the left hand, was sent here and there on leliana's orders. this let them keep up with each other and have excursions together. the possibility to live a boisterous life of a mercenary was tempting, but nonexistent.
the dalish clan. after all that was established, i imagine the cruelest thing that might be done to allaros is to give him the opportunity to lead a clan. to let him meet a clan struggling without their keeper, otherwise a content community with strong bonds. for instance, on one of the charger's missions. they're on their way of getting a mage from another clan. but isn't he a mage from another clan? two pieces of the puzzle put together. it is the cruel fate, to make lavellan remember: dalish are family, and he is meant to be here. accepting that the best you can do for your family is to leave wasn't easy, now all feelings were rekindled. allaros would instantly fall into helping and organizing. he would witness meals together around the campfire and their skillful preparations, rangers with reports, hunters with prey, children studying diligently, young mage apprentices lost without a guiding hand that will teach them how to cast a spell. lavellan knows how to help them. his help is welcome. it doesn't take the soul out of him. allaros remembers, he loves helping a community while being its part. bull is finally relaxed because the tal-vashoth and captain of the chargers knows full well what happiness that brings. because he sees his kadan content.
coming back. facing the opportunity to feel at home and at peace, allaros has to reject it. it's sensible. he has to come back to making the world a better place for elves and mages. because he would have to give up on seeing bull. because to work for his people of the whole country, he has to give up on his desire to help a smaller community. because leaving the court feels like a betrayal. because if he won't, who will?
the uprising. these further events are less achievable, but. there should be an uprising of the elves led by briala's movement, as well as her and allaros personally behind the curtain. the unrest that the divine might not be able support openly, but wouldn't interfere as well.
the return of the dales. the great game of orlais will never cease to exist. its base is blackmail, gossips, and compromising evidence. the climax of the uprising is a final move in the great game played from the shadows by allaros, as dangerous for him and everyone around as the double-edged sword. one day the court of orlais would be nothing but chaos. the amount of evidence damaging enough for the nobility to give up the dales as the territory that must be returned to elves. because briala taught him how much the elves can see because they're never seen. i want the elves to win the great game with the nobility's very own weapon.
ripples on water. before that, lavellan gathers the chargers, bull and elgara, and hopes that whoever he couldn't gather would get the memo anyway. he says, they're all leverage, plain and simple. that he can't say anything, but it's possible that they have to leave orlais, never to come back. allaros knows the chargers aren't loyal to him, they're loyal to their captain who is in love with allaros. many of them have people they care about in orlais, friends, flings and loves. half of their contracts come from this place. eventually, they have to leave and forget their lives in orlais. soon after the blackmail outbreak, allaros goes missing. it should've been him so it's not someone else. neither bull nor elgara know when they will see lavellan again. always ready to go through fire and water for him, now they have to move on without lavellan. it's easier for some of the chargers to rebuild parts of their lives, they're mercenaries, after all. for some, it is not. in any case, it was lavellan's responsibility.
the end without permanence. then, elves must move to the dales and rebuild their lives as well. there is a long process of figuring out what their lives should look like now, and the tension between them and orlais is palpable. still, there is life ahead of them as well. orlesian forces search for the one responsible for what happened, but even though every suspicion falls on the lord inquisitor, they can't capture him. consequently, allaros cannot watch the new life of his people he was fighting for. but his work there is done, he isn't entitled for anything else. there's briala and others for that. allaros leaves traces here and there so they won't lose track of him and turn to the dales. these are very exhausting years for him. despite lavellan's best efforts, they, of course, try to search through the dales nevertheless. this is time to act. this is also time when bull catches news here and there of someone captured and accused. when he understands it's not allaros but someone who's been framed, bull bitterly realizes he was right about his kadan becoming the orlesian nobility. still, he sets his sights on a meeting. it might happen soon.

The Dalish are elves who refuse to live in human cities, where their people are exploited, having few rights. They choose to eke out an independent existence in the forests, attempting to keep the last remnants of their ancient culture alive. Saavedra is from clan Lavellan, a group of Dalish who migrate around the perpetually feuding Free Marches. Saavedra's people travel along the borders of each city-state's territory, where Free March rulers will be less inclined to attack them, for fear of accidentally provoking neighboring cities.
Saavedra manifested a talent for magic as a child. The clan's leader, Keeper Deshanna Istimaethoriel Lavellan, taught her how to control and hone her new powers. Saavedra grew into a capable mage, far away from the eyes of the templars and mage Circles. When tension between the two factions erupted into warfare, spilling into the countryside, Clan Lavellan was forced to pick up and move. Saavedra's Keeper sent her to spy on the Conclave at Haven, as the outcome might determine the fate of her own clan.
After the explosion that killed the Divine, Saavedra was the only survivor at the Temple of Sacred Ashes. Rumors that the mysterious mark on her hand is a sign of the Maker's favor were spread by those who claim they saw the divine prophet, Andraste herself, lead Lavellan out of the Fade. [x]
basics
name: Saavedra (according to her father it was loosely based on the Qunlat word saarebas, meaning dangerous thing, a common word for mages among the Qunari) title: First to Deshanna Istimaethoriel (formerly), Herald of Andraste, Inquisitor age: 27 (born on 9 Cloudreach, 9:14 Dragon) race: Elf class: Mage specialization: Knight-Enchanter

a companion card for Elgara! I cannot stress enough how she should never be an inquisitor but she’s the god-like powerful companion. it’s loosely based on
Ace of Wands:  inspiration, new opportunities, growth, potential
[image id: a watercolor painting of Elgara in tarot style with borders like the cards in Dragon Age Inquisition. She’s a dark skinned elf, with long dark brown hair and mythal dalish tattoo. She’s wearing a brown collar with a pin in the middle, bright brown fur on shoulders, black gloves, a tunic tied with multiple belts and skirt that parts into three ways, and leather bound boots from her thighs. She’s lying in water and all of her clothes are wet. She’s holding her staff, which has anatomical heart on the tip and circle around it with two parts from the transgender symbol; the third one is at the end of the staff. There are small waves of water coming from her. /end image id]

Her hands are soft, even after years spent wielding a staff that has surely rubbed her skin raw, and she hooks a finger behind his jaw, forcing him to look her in the eyes. Before he understands her intent, her lips are on his. (She tastes of winter mornings and cinnamon, sharp and bitter all at the same time.)

Chapter 8 of my Solavellan fic, Din'an all Elgara, is up! It might be my favorite chapter yet. Since it features more heavily in this chapter, I'm once again sharing this amazing work of Sarissa's prosthetic arm by @the-scottish-art-guy from a few months ago!
Tumblr media
Im also posting a snippet from the chapter to whet your appetite 💕
“No, I–” He paused again, taking a breath. “I assure you, I could tell you nothing that any other mage could not, with the proper study. You yourself could learn as much as I could find, I’m sure.”
I stared back at him bemusedly, an idea forming in my head. “You’re right,” I said, hopping down from the wall. “I’ll go ask Dorian. Or maybe Vivienne.”
He snorted, picking up his book. “I did say a mage with the proper training.”
“They are Circle trained,” I said, straightening my robes to leave. “I’m sure if anyone could figure it out–”
Solas stopped me mid step, sticking his arm in front of me. I met his stony gaze with my best innocent look, my challenge laid plain, but I couldn’t tell if he was more exasperated with me or amused. He looked to be sizing me up, deciding whether or not he would stoop to take the bait.
“Unless you’d like to suggest someone better suited?”
He rolled his eyes, but he couldn’t hide the smile as he let me go. “Sit down. I’ll tell you what I can, but don’t expect much.”
“You’re too kind,” I answered graciously, hopping back into my seat with a grin.
“And you are incredibly persistent,” he replied.

1,6,40 for the Uncommon Questions please
Gonna answer these about my girl Elgara Lavellan!
1) What’s the maximum amount of time your character can sit still with nothing to do?
Not long at all! Elgara is very hyperactive. She is always messing with something or bouncing her leg in war meetings. The advisors learned quickly to try and keep meetings to an hour maximum because otherwise Elgara will lose her attention. She can’t help it! As soon as she is able to get out and fight something she is gone.
6) Do they consider laws flexible, or immovable?
Laws do not mean much to Elgara. She doesn’t break them outright but FOR SURE finds as many loopholes as she possibly can to do what needs done.
40) How sensitive are they to their own flaws?
Elgara does not let her flaws get her down. For example, she is extremely impulsive and tends to let her feelings speak before she has time to think. She has not done much to try and improve her flaws, but that’s what her friends are for right? To balance out your flaws with their positive traits?
Tumblr media
Hey also thank you @noire-pandora for letting me rant about my children by sending asks I appreciate you sm!
