OC Name Meaning

tagged by @nowandthane thank youuuuu <3

Rules: google and post the meaning of your OC'S name (if you made their name up or they go by a nickname, post an explanation of how it came to you)! bonus if you can find something for their last name too.

no pressure tags: @stormikins @kaos-kappa @geekybones @alexios @gethpyro

DA and ME kids under the cut!

disclaimer is i picked some of my DA characters' names based on meaning but everybody else was bc of sound so we'll get some fun results im sure sdklfjsdlk

Evanna Shepard: "god is gracious". uhhhhhh eva is not the most religious person skdjfh maybe her parents were religious before they died. actually writing this down for her story 📝 i don't remember how i came up with her name tbh!

Audrey Shepard: "noble strength". this does fit! she is a war hero paragon after all. her name came from a friend i had in college who was like one of the sweetest people i've ever met. audrey is also very sweet

Orion Shepard: "heaven's light". honestly. i just picked a space name for my spacer boy. i didn't even know searching would turn up a meaning for naming your human child sdfkjhdsfjk his name came from a story someone told me of how their brother goes by ryan but his name is actually orion

(he will get a custom head later but for now↓)

Asteria Tabris: "star" or "starry one". yes there are multiple star-themed names on here bc i love stars

(i don't have a screenshot of her 😔 im still meaning to do her custom head but i also can't find any mod hair that i like. alas.)

Ruby Hawke: honestly i now have a list of flower names and gemstone names that i think would be cool to name my characters and this was the first one

Amaris Lavellan: "promised by god". idk howwwww i got so many religious names for my least religious characters ksdjfhs not that Amaris doesn't believe in elven gods but this seems like it would equate more to The Maker. maybe it's because she's the herald. i believe i got her name from a name website

Sterling Lavellan: "little star". aw shit here we go again w star names. honestly when i named him i thought "amaris" was also a star name and they're twins so i thought it made sense. guess not tho sdkjfhs

Keala Trevelyan: "the path". uhhh yes he is on.. the path of the inquisitor. i guess. i have nooo memory of where his name came from

Lulu Adaar: depending on language, "pearl" or "peaceful/protected/calm". imma be real, i just thought it would be great to have an adaar with a rly cutesy name

Grey's Prompt Post

**Contains Veilguard Spoilers**

Send me a prompt! If you do, please include the whole prompt with a character or pairing.

I'll also try to work from a song or poem if you want to send one over.

A note on prompts: I tend to write off the general vibe of a prompt instead of the exact wording.

(!!!) 1/31 - Caving to self-indulgence and taking prompts for my Veilguard ships! Hoping to get some stuff written for Celeste Trevelyan x Lucanis and Hamlin Laidir x Emmrich.

Main Friendship and Rivalry OC Pairings:

Please feel free to send a platonic prompt for an OC with any NPC from DA2 or Inquisition. The pairings listed below are only starting places!

Celeste & Cole | Celeste & Vivienne | Celeste & Blackwall

Arden & Josephine | Arden & Cassandra | Arden & Harding

Cal & Anders | Cal & Isabela | Cal & Merrill

Main Romantic OC Pairings:

Cal x Fenris

Arden Trevelyan x Dorian

Celeste Trevelyan x Lucanis

Gillian Hawke x Merrill

My OCs:

Celeste Trevelyan ("The Herald") - Teenage necromancer extraordinaire. She's shy when she isn't speaking to dead things.

Post DATV - Queen of psychic damage. Currently researching the Blight.

Arden Trevelyan (" The Inquisitor") - Celeste's dad. Ex-dragon cultist turned shrewd enforcer of the Trevelyan family's interests. Reaver/Archer specialization. Acting as Regent Inquisitor.

Gillian Hawke - She grew up with dreams of becoming an Orlesian socialite. Being the Champion of Kirkwall will have to do.

Cal - A washed-up Grey Warden who hung onto Hawke's coattails. He happens to be a frightfully gifted force mage, but Kirkwall knows him better as an absolutely terrible cook.

Magaleth - Eccentric Grey Warden mage with a specialty for blood enchantments.

Loran Amari - Cranky Grey Warden from the Starkhaven alienage. Known for taking down ogres.

Hamlin Laidir - Infamous treasure hunter. Not above stabbing people in the back if he can turn a profit.

Frequently Asked Questions

“How might I be able to find a post or previous response on the question I have, before asking?”

If it is a lore question, try checking out my meta masterlist first!

My second recommendation would be to try searching for a tagged character, quest, or topic; for example, “Merrill”, “Wicked Eyes and Wicked Hearts”, “Qunari”, etc. I try my best to keep this blog as organized as possible.

You can then try searching outside of just the tags; for example, “divine”, “masks”, “dream”, etc.

If you are still unable to find anything, then please feel free to send a message!

“Who are your canon protagonists?”

Da'Renan Mahariel

Dalia Hawke

Amaris Lavellan

“What order should I read the Dragon Age novels and comics?”

Here is my guide.

“Can you recommend some fanfiction to me?”

I do not read a lot of Dragon Age fanfiction, so no, I’m not a very good person to ask.

“Can you recommend some more blogs to me?”

Sorry, I do not do blog recommendations. I get anxious about it.

“Do you know if there is a mod for…”

Here are some tips for finding mods on the Nexus:

Try vague and different search terms or character names

Use the website’s “Refine Results” features to browse by category

Use the website’s “Refine Results” features to search for words contained in the mod description

The Dragon Age nexus mod sites:

Dragon Age: Origins Nexus

Dragon Age: II Nexus

Dragon Age: Inquisition Nexus

“Why do you hate cishet people?” / “Why do you hate white people?”

I do not, unless someone is being a jerk about it.

“Why do you dislike Cullen?”

This question is so common I now have a master list, which you can read here.

“Why do you care so much about people preferring to whitewash Alistair and Fiona? He’s a knightly prince so of course Alistair can’t have a brown mother!!1!”

I’m a biracial person who can’t help but be a little personally insulted by the lengths people will go to trying to claim Alistair is white, and their reasons behind it. Here are a few key posts on this subject. If you ask a question about this and it’s not something I’ve already said, I am just going to send you to these posts rather than repeat it all over again for the billionth time.

Yes, Fiona is Alistair’s mother

And yes, there is reason to believe she isn’t white beyond just Alistair’s skin in DA:O

Because he sure didn’t get his skin from Maric’s side of the family

“But he’s not even that tan” (ignoring that skin colour is not even the only measure of who is white or not)

Alistair was whitewashed to hell and back from DA:O to DA:I

And no, there is no exaggeration because it isn’t necessary

And no it is not just the taint

Or because he spends more time inside

Because he wasn’t just a white guy with a tan to begin with

Or whatever reason you can think of other than holding BioWare responsible for their actions

It is BioWare choosing to change this fictional character’s skin colour from light brown to pale as fuck, because that is what BioWare does

Reasons People Don’t Like Biracial Alistair and Brown Fiona

And the kind of people I have experience with saying he’s white…

…are 99% of the time assholes

“How do you feel about white people having nonwhite OCs?”

I personally feel fine with people having OCs not of their race/ethnicity, as long as they are respectful and put work into it. But I also understand why so many people would prefer it to just not be a thing at all, with good reason, and do not want my own opinion to be used to invalidate someone else’s. You can read more in the links included in this ask.

“Why do you care so much about drama/discourse? Why can’t you just let people enjoy the series? Why does it matter?”

Because when the “discourse” is a group of bigots defending their bigotry, when people “just enjoying the series” comes at the expense of other people, “ignore it and it will go away” has a 0% success rate at changing anything.

“If you hate the games so much, why do you play them?”

I do not hate the games. I am just aware that you can enjoy something while also critiquing the parts you wish were better. It is really not that difficult a concept, you know?
