#whether it's how i think the events of DA2 would evolve if niamh were there

Gotcha!

Now, how much chaos would Niamh and the Hawkes have gotten into if they would have met up and traveled together in the past?

Are you asking because you want an AU of that situation? 😂

To put it simply though, not as much as you would think.

Between her and her older sister Saoirse, Niamh's always been the better voice of reason between them. As mentioned in chapter 22 of OtSttCA, Niamh was largely the reason why the Origins group was able to get so many alliances into place prior to the final battle in Denerim, which likely saved the city from being utterly destroyed.

Honestly, while Niamh has her playful moments with certain characters (she's still the biggest brat around Leliana 🤣), she's very diplomatic overall. That type of even temperament would probably mesh well with my canon Emrys Hawke, who is often chaos personified, and I'm sure Bethany would appreciate another person trying to help reign that type of energy in.
