#finn to jowan about surana

I don’t know why because there is absolutely no lore in any of the games to support this (in fact quite the opposite), but somewhere along the line I decided that mages in Dragon Age all have different coloured flames, they can’t choose or control or change it, it just is. And I’d already subconsciously assigned most of the characters their colour.
Amaranthe Amell - lapis blue with a heart of iridescent pearl (because she’s God’s favourite princess)
Neria Surana – bright sunny butter yellow
Morrigan – deep gold with a dark amethyst halo
Jowan – pale silver-green marshlight
Anders – umber with a heart of crimson
Wynne – powder-blue, translucent like glass
Connor – jade green
Lanaya – pale daffodil yellow with a grass-green halo
Velanna – sullen orange like glowing embers
Finn – pretty normal looking, but gets a glint of emerald at the centre if he’s super excited about something
Hawke – blood red. Just blood red
Bethany – soft violet
Merrill – scarlet fading into coral
Dorian – rich magenta with royal purple flashes
Vivienne – pastel lavender
Solas – smoke grey with a blinding white halo, hurts the eyes
I have no idea why I did this but it’s my inescapable headcanon now. Feel free to comment if you have a different vision, or a character I didn’t mention, or your own Warden/Hawke/Inquisitor/OC!

Are we posting ship baises? 👀 This is just copied from my page, but let me know if anything catches your eye!
Below are all my ship biases for my muses, sorted alphabetically by fandom.  These are NOT the only ships I have for these muses, just ones I already like or am interested in trying. 
If a muse isn’t listed here, that means I don’t have ship biases for them.  As long as a ship isn’t on my “no-ship list,” I encourage you to ask about it if you are interested. <3 I am very open to discovering new ships if the muses have chemistry.
I prefer to write M/F or F/F ships.  I may consider M/M with someone I know and trust exceptionally well.  While I may not ship some things romantically, I’m always happy to write those interactions platonically (or even unrequired, if you’re okay with it).
Italicized are my favorite ships.  Ships with asterisks (*) have special conditions; please ask me first!
THE 100.
finn collins  →  Raven, Maya, Clarke*
maya vie  →  Jasper, Clarke, Finn
CYBERPUNK 2077.
valerie “v” skinner  →  Judy, Panam
victoria “v” iordanescu  →  Panam, Johnny
judy alvarez  →  female V, Evelyn
DOCTOR WHO.
rose tyler →  The Doctor (8, 9, 10, 11, 13), Jack, Rory
DRAGON AGE.
angus hawke  →  Merrill
clare cousland  →  Ser Gilmore, Alistair, Nathaniel, Ser Barris
fergus cousland  →  Oriana
jowan →  Lilly*, female Amell or Surana, female warden
leanne trevelyan  →  Cullen, Ser Barris
margo hawke  →  Anders, Isabela*, Varric*
nelaros  →  female Tabris, female city elves
sahar amell  →  Cullen*
thora cadash  →  Sera, Dagna, Scout Harding
FIRE EMBLEM.
Most of my 3H muses are potentially open to ships with Byleth, depending on chemistry and only after the timeskip.  The ships listed for Byleth are just some I particularly enjoy. 
f!byleth eisner →  Dimitri, Claude, Ferdinand, Sylvain
ferdinand von aegir →  Dorothea, Hilda, Petra, Constance
hilda v. goneril  →  Claude, Ferdinand, Annette, Dimitri
sylvain j. gautier  →  Ingrid, Felix, Mercedes
annette f. dominic   →  Ashe, Felix, Linhardt, Hilda, Caspar
linhardt von hevring   →  Caspar, Annette, Marianne
ignatz victor   →  Marianne, tbd
lucina -> tbd
gaius -> Sumia, tbd
subaki -> Orochi, tbd
THE LAST KINGDOM.
ragnar ragnarsson  →  Brida
erik thurgilson  →  Aetheflaed

I played the Witch Hunt DLC for Origins for the first time today!
I really enjoyed it. Specifically:
The Warden is lowkey an asshole during this quest! Here Ariane is, being friendly and bantering with everyone, asking questions, sympathizing with the Warden’s Relationship Angst. Does the Warden ever display the same interest in Ariane, or converse beyond learning the basic necessities of what is needed to find Morrigan? Nope! And the Warden doesn’t speak with Finn either! No fucks are given about the companions during this quest, the Warden is a bloodhound....obsessed.....navel-gazing.
Not to mention, Saint Ariane lets the Warden have a private moment with Morrigan instead of going in herself guns blazing and pissed because Morrigan..... you know...... stole sacred knowledge belonging to her people...... anyway Ariane makes this major concession in allowing the Warden to speak with Morrigan alone, and then is like “hey can you ask about the book she stole pretty please?” And the Warden literally does none of that. They angst at Morrigan over being ditched after the archdemon battle and then run off with her into a mirror without saying goodbye to a single soul. Irresponsible asshole! I love it.
Morrigan loves the dog. Character development.
Finn’s just out here casually doing blood magic. Ariane probably doesn’t understand the taboo and the Warden I had was a blood mage themselves, but... the kid had no shame. No hesitation. Just “lol I need your blood for this spell but it isn’t a LOT ok don’t be a baby about it”
This feeds into my theory that actually MOST of the Circle was filled with blood mages the whole time, that was sort of the state of affairs over there.
The mages think of Jowan not as morally reprehensible, but as a stupid guy with poor planning skills. I really think they are all still blood mages over there, and I love them for it.
They let Finn go out of the Tower? Like he just waltzed out? Sure the Ferelden mages have more freedoms now supposedly but I feel like this dude who casually antagonizes grey wardens and does blood magic Like It Ain’t No Thang would maybe be watched closer by the templars? Did he mind control them with magic? They just let him do whatever he wants, including apparently talking with the Super Scary Evil cursed tevinter statue all the time.
The apprentices in the tower are mean-spirited gossips and I love them. They also have no shame--I’m in the room with them, I can HEAR them judging my sex life, they’re just yelling out their sordid opinions like their mission is to make me uncomfortable. We do stan.
The templars are really chill about the Huge Dangerous Catastrophe in the basement. Oh there are a bajillion tears in the veil and it looks like our sentinels and guards are possessed? We’ll just lock the doors for now and deal with it later lol. Have a nice day!
Maybe Cullen had to leave because he was the only person there with what could be called a normal response to trauma. The rest of the mages are casually talking about picking charred bits of their friend from the ceiling because they were trying to make a pet of a dragon. They don’t seem disturbed by this. I mean mages go through a lot of shit so it makes sense that they’re just desensitized to everything, I suppose.
“Oh hey I read about this ancient beast two days ago it’s weird how when you learn something new it seems to start popping up everywhere--”
The Warden can respond to each stage of the quest by saying, “I’ve been there before. I know about that.” God, what an insufferable know it all. This is why no one invites you to the good parties, Surana.
Ariane mentions at one point that she really doesn’t want to kill the elven guardian spirits, she wants to talk to them. Everyone continues killing them anyway.
I thought it would fade into black once the Warden stepped into the mirror, but you get a half second of a flash on what’s on the other side (it almost looks like a bug or like it isn’t supposed to be there) before credits roll.

Dragon Age: Origins (and DLCs), day 15.
Goodness, I didn’t realize Velanna would be so enthusiastic about taking the Architect’s deal.
That said, with this party? Yeah, I’m going to take it. I’m not worried about the fights, but Justice is lower-priority than Nathaniel or Velanna, and taking the deal legit gives the better endings, at least in the short to medium term.
And Nathaniel is now back up to +100 approval, where he should be. (He’s still the only one, but Velanna made it to +99 with the bump from taking the Architect’s deal.)
Velanna, what the fuck, that is entirely too many childer for you to be trying to melee. Get back here.
And it’s very sweet of you to hover directly over Isaura when she’s on the business end of a childer’s Overwhelm, but please for the love of the Maker cast those spells from somewhere safer. She’ll be unhappy if you get eaten, seriously.
Anyway, it’s Mother time. Let’s see if I can do this relatively cleanly.
Answer: Nope. Nathaniel and Velanna went down distressingly quickly, and Nathaniel was back down again before Isaura’s Revive could recharge, at which point I took it as a sign to leave them down and let Isaura and Justice try and hack their way through the childer and tentacles on their own.
Oof, Justice just went down after clearing the first wave of mooks and taking a couple of swings at the Mother. Time to use the healing tower, I think.
Nathaniel, sweetie, why are you close enough to the Mother to get physically taken down by her? Get the fuck back.
...and he’s down again. On the other hand, him being all up in the Mother’s business means that the Revive I soon had to toss Justice when he got squished also caught Nate.
You know what, sweetie, no, you’re not doing this, I’m walking you back to the Designated Ranged Fighter Area manually. Please don’t wander off again. You are an archer. Just in case you managed to forget again despite the fact that you’re currently physically shooting things.
...and she’s dead. Whew. Eat flaming death, Mother. (And what was that capital-L Look Nathaniel and Justice exchanged afterwards, anyway? “Told you so, edgelord, you can’t trust darkspawn” answered with “Told you so, dead boy, we would’ve all been dead if we’d had to fight the Architect first and then wade into that”?)
Got most of my usual endings, though I’ve never had this one for Velanna before, where she becomes moderately less mean to humans and takes several years to disappear off after Seranni. Very sweet.
And that’s that for Awakening. Next up, Witch Hunt.
I wouldn’t quite say they were besties, but Isaura and Morrigan were good enough friends that her motive for seeking Morrigan out is fairly clear.
It’s good to see you again, doggie.
Hello, Ariane. You’ll become friends with the dog in time, don’t worry.
Ooh, fourth specialization time. I waffled for a bit, but ultimately, it feels more likely that Isaura would’ve picked up shapeshifting from Morrigan than Keeper magic from Velanna; maybe a Surana would’ve had some claim on the latter, but my shem girl, not so much.
Right, yes, with a non-rogue Warden this DLC becomes Happy Fun Got No Rogue So I Can’t Open Shit Time. *sigh*
...so were the “illustrations of Templars being eaten by a fierce tiger named Ser Pounce-a-lot” added by Anders when he gave that guest lecture a few months ago, or did he recycle the name from a cat he or someone else had when he was an apprentice?
Hello, Finn. *sigh*
So many opportunities in this series to rag on the supposed incompetence of the Dalish at preserving and reclaiming their history. I am discomfort.
You know, the “actually, I, a dominant-culture person, am the real heir to your ancestors’ legacy, and you don’t count because Reasons” thing touches me in real life, in some small way, so when I see it in DA, I start screeching demonically.
*screech*
Heh, some of the things I’m encountering in the repository are a lot more meaningful now that I’ve played through the Magi origin.
Yeah, I’m sure the apprentices’ phylacteries are somewhere more secure now after that business with Jowan.
This DLC sure loves callbacks, doesn’t it? Just in general.
Wall-to-wall witty sniping, fun fun fun.
The lighting in here makes Morrigan look like she’s wearing a giant Fruit Roll-Up around her tits.
And that’s over, whew. A picture of the baby as per SOP, and then on to DA2!
Tumblr media
(I swear I didn’t push the eye size slider up. Not deliberately, anyway.)

Character Interview
tagged by @apostatetabris thank you so much! tagging @antivan-surana​ @marabrosca @situationnormal @pinkafropuffs @terra-two
Tumblr media
art by vjatoch
name ➔ Rhian Surana are you single ➔ No are you happy ➔ I think so. Much happier than when I was in the circle anyway.
are you angry ➔ Mostly frustrated at the state of things are your parents still married ➔  I guess they would be if they were still alive
NINE FACTS
birthplace ➔ Highever, Castle Cousland
hair color ➔ Black eye color ➔ Black birthday ➔  17th day of Guardian
mood ➔ Okay
gender ➔ Cis female summer or winter ➔  Winter
morning or afternoon ➔ I like dusk
EIGHT THINGS ABOUT YOUR LOVE LIFE
are you in love ➔ Yes do you believe in love at first sight ➔ No who ended your last relationship ➔ Only been with one person. We went through a rough patch, but we’ve settled it have you ever broken someone’s heart ➔ Yes, when I sacrificed myself for Thedas (also Alistair’s but Rhian doesn’t know that)
are you afraid of commitments ➔ Most definitely
have you hugged someone within the last week? ➔ Alistair have you ever had a secret admirer ➔ The only one I know of is Cullen because Jowan told me have you ever broken your own heart? ➔ Probably
SIX CHOICES
love or lust ➔ Love, I don’t feel lust lemonade or iced tea ➔ Iced tea cats or dogs ➔ Both
a few best friends or many regular friends ➔ A few. That’s all I can manage. It’s hard to open up to other people wild night out or romantic night in ➔ Depends on the mood. Wild night if I’m going to be with close friends. Although I don’t like to put myself out there too much so it wouldn’t be too wild. I’m always down for a low key evening though.
day or night ➔ Night. Better to see stars with. There’s also something really intimate about moonlight.
FIVE HAVE YOU EVERS
been caught sneaking out ➔ No. Not that I’ve ever snuck out. fallen down/up the stairs ➔ Always when I was in the Circle. The robes were always too long on me.
wanted something/someone so badly it hurt? ➔ Yeah wanted to disappear ➔ A lot, especially when I was in the Circle. Even during the Fifth Blight actually. Now I actually can by sheer will.
FOUR PREFERENCES
smile or eyes ➔ A smile when someone means it is one of the most beautiful things.
shorter or taller ➔  Most people are taller than me.
intelligence or attraction ➔ Intelligence hook-up or relationship ➔ I’m not interested in sex.
FAMILY
do you and your family get along ➔ Both of my parents are dead. I don’t know anything about my family.
would you say you have a “messed up life” ➔ My parents worked for the Cousland family. Then I was taken away when I was six. My dad died and my mom never wrote me. I hardly ever went outside for twelve years. Then I had to join the Wardens or die. Which then led to me having to lead a whole country against an army. Now I’m spending the rest of my existence as a spirit. So yeah, probably. have you ever ran away from home ➔ Didn’t have to. I was taken. have you ever gotten kicked out ➔ I guess so. Since my mom never wrote to me while I was in the Circle. Too ashamed of having a mage as a kid.
FRIENDS
do you secretly hate one of your friends ➔ Finn and I...compete a lot.  do you consider all of your friends good friends ➔ Yes who is your best friend ➔ Alistair. He’s basically like a brother to me.
who knows everything about you ➔ Alistair and Zevran.

im writing an all-origins-survive dragon age fix it and here are the character bios!!
Damian Cousland- a sword-shield warrior who falls for Zevran. He doesn't understand a lot of what the others have gone through (Zev's experience as a slave, Adrian's poor experiences with humans, Kit's distaste for stupid shems, Miri and Lyanna's experience with templars, Naya's instinctive self-devaluing, Alistair's experience in the Chantry and his child abuse) but he still makes an effort to understand and learns a lot over the course of the story. He's very flustered by Zevran at first but makes a concerted effort to help him when things get rough. Post-DAO, he and Zevran go and take out the Crows and wear cool matching outfits doing it (it's mostly for Zevran's dramatic flair, because Damian would never do that on his own, but for the love of his life? of course). They settle down in Antiva, though they take a brief trip to the Free Marches to see the Amells and give them news of their second cousin. They help save baby Crows and adopt them. (Currently they have three kids, all Crow escapees.)
Adrian Tabris- a dual wielding rogue who finds himself in love with Alistair. He was named for his mother Adaia, and Cyrion often finds himself looking at his son and wanting to weep because he can see his mother in him. Adrian was sexually assaulted by humans when he was around fourteen. When he saw what was going to happen to Shianni, he leapt to her defense, wanting to save someone in the way he wasn't able to. He & Alistair love each other very much. Others would be upset to be only the King's consort, but Adrian is delighted that he can help the alienage with Alistair. He and Anora do most of the ruling, and they respect each other quite a bit- after all, Adrian is the one who introduced her to Shianni :) 
Kitranelle Mahariel- an archery-based rogue, Kit found herself falling for the mysterious Morrigan who also grew up away from humans and therefore has a more disdainful view of them. She has the vallaslin of Elgar'nan, and received it right before Tamlen died :( She used to be in a polyamorous relationship with Tamlen and Merrill that fell apart when Tamlen was taken, and she swore not to leave her heart unguarded again. She told herself that her relationship with Morrigan was just flirting, just kissing, just sex, until... it wasn't. Kit has quite a bit of trauma regarding humans, who took her father and killed her mother, and she's not prone to trust. The only one she ever particularly liked was Duncan, and he wasn't that kind at first either. She becomes a lot more open to humans during the Blight, and she's especially close to Lyanna. She did the Dark Ritual with Morrigan. Post-DAO, she tracks down Morrigan with the help of a hunter from the Brecilian forest (Ariane) and a circle mage friend of Lyanna and Miri's (Finn) and escapes with Morrigan and Kieran, who she spends the next decade raising alongside her wife.
Lyanna Amell- a Mage (obviously) focused on the entropic school and the Spirit school. She's been in love with Miri Surana since she was old enough to understand the concept. Their relationship is modeled a little bit off Steve/Bucky (aka the 'hoe don't do it' meme) and Lyanna is Bucky in this scenario, constantly apologizing for Miri being loud and quicktempered and just. All that. She wasn't aware that Cullen had a crush on Miri, because she didn't WANT to believe, because she didn't know Cullen had a crush on both of them. (Cullen likes Lyanna because she's a Good Mage, and she's so Kind and Sweet and he thinks she would actually like him back (lol she's a lesbian so no). His... infatuation with Miri is much more "i'm going to break her" and it's pretty obvious when you're looking for it.) She was best friends with Jowan, and Miri was best friends with Anders. She has a bad back from a punishment she received as a child when she hadn't learned how to be Quiet like a good mage (that incident is part of what led her to become really focused on being Good Enough). It never healed right, and she needs poultices to get through the day during the Fifth Blight with all the combat. Post-DAO, she becomes the Warden-Commanders of Amaranthine alongside Naya Brosca and Miri Surana. Post-DAA, she and Miri get married and run from the Chantry, sending Velanna and Sigrun letters as they go.
Miri Surana- a mage focused on the Primal school and the Creation school. She was stolen from the Dalish as a child, and the templars found her when she was playing with ink and with paint marks on her face in the shape of vallaslin (she wanted to have the marks of June because her parts were both craftspeople). She’s always wondered whether she’d be able to get them done someday, after learning of how they found her, and she decided to glamour vallaslin on her face (she wouldn't make it permanent because she was afraid she’d get it wrong and then she’d be rejected if she ever met a Dalish) in honor of her heritage. She couldn’t do it in public because she’d get punished for it, but she did it TONS in private. Anders was her best friend (they fooled around once, but Miri told him she was a lesbian immediately after and Anders was like am I that bad? lol) Speaking of punishment, Miri got punished for a LOT, because she never shut up. She has a broken ankle that healed wrong and so she needs her staff to walk sometimes. She was sexually assaulted by a templar and at one point entered an ill-advised poorly-conceived relationship with Cullen under the wraps before ending it when he got Weird and he's been murder-lusting after her ever since. Lyanna did not know about this, she just thought Miri was having sex with a templar. It's ... fucked up. She became one of the Warden-Commanders of Amaranthine with Lyanna (who, by the way, is the love of her life and that which grounds her.)
Naya Brosca: a casteless dwarf, dual wielding rogue, who ended up working for the Carta. She did it for her sister and her mother. Naya copes for her low self-esteem using humor, and her life really sucks. She has a complicated relationship with the Stone as a religion and hates the Ancestors. She fell for Leliana, who introduced her to Andrastianism, which broadened Naya's faith- Naya still believes in the Stone, but she also believes in the Maker. Her mother is a drunk and Naya was verbally and physically abused as a child. She tried her best to protect Rica, who in turn protected Naya from becoming a noble-hunter, which was her worst nightmare. Naya is a dual-wielding rogue but mostly she focuses on lock-picking and theft, because hey, gotta survive, amiright boys? She and Vyrim have a rivalry going on because Vyrim is an Heir, stone-blessed, and Naya is a Casteless, and they originally have it out for one another. Eventually they learn to trust each other, but there's always some level of apprehension between them because of their upbringings. Naya becomes a Warden-Commander post-Blight.
Vyrim Aeducan- greatsword-wielding warrior, the middle child of Endrin Aeducan, a very schmoozy kind of person, who got the Assembly in their pocket but never anticipated Bhelen's betrayal. They loved their brother Trian but were closer to Bhelen and believed him when he said "oh yeah, he'll kill you (and me, too)" because they grew up trying to protect their brother. That.... backfired. Vyrim is the oldest of the group at around forty, so they don't get into a relationship with anyone because UH excuse you, you're all BABIES compared to them. They have the dwarf tattoo that has dots around the eyes? i love it. They are prejudiced against the Casteless but learn Not to be after confronted with the reality of what happens against Casteless in Orzammar. They returned to the Grey Wardens and stayed there... for a time.
Those are my DAO ocs! i love them!

OC Masterlist
@kiraia​ pointed out (rightfully so) that I made quite a few vague posts about my OCs, but that I’ve never properly introduced them. It’s true, mostly because I tend to wait until they are well developed to properly do anything with them, which doesn’t happen all that often. So consider this a formal introduction to my current OCs :)
(Under a cut because there are quite a bunch of them. I hope it works on mobile, because otherwise yikes! I’m very sorry.)
Sad Mages Worldstate
It’s probably the one I talk about the most. It’s the most developed worldstate, with the most developed OCs and I’ve written a lot of fics about them.
The Warden: Ana Surana [Tag | Complete bio | Fanfictions]
pairings: Ana x Daylen Amell (friends with benefits), Ana x Alistair (DAO romance), Ana x Carver (current pairing, now married) + I occasionally throw Isabela into the mix because reasons.
Born in the Gallows and taken to an orphanage in Highever until her magic manifested.
Grew up close to Anders, Jowan, Amell and (to a lesser extent) Finn.
Had a baby that she was forced to give to the Chantry.
Main DAO choices include: romancing Alistair, getting her heart broken after making him king, stupidly refusing to do Morrigan’s ritual and watching him sacrifice his life for her.
Later she starts dating Carver (whom she actually met at Ostagar where they had a brief fling before the Battle).
Takes part in the Mage Underground and helps Anders build his bomb.
Starts hearing the Calling shortly before DAI.
Is Hawke’s contact during HLtA.
The Champion: Alwyn Hawke [Tag | Complete bio | Fanfictions]
pairings: Alwyn x Anders (DA2 romance, on and off), Alwyn x Cullen (one time), Alwyn x Rylen (post DAI, considering making them endgame, not sure yet).
Purple Hawke.
Carver becomes a warden.
Supports the mages.
Develops a close friendship with Ana.
Breaks up with Anders after the Chantry explosion, wishing he’d trusted him enough to share his plan with him. They do get back together later on.
Is the first one to learn about Ana hearing the Calling.
Stays behind in the Fade during HLtA, but eventually finds a way out.
He was found by Inquisition scouts in the Western Approach, suffering from amnesia.
Later falls in love with Rylen.
(Note that I still need to update that last part into his bio.)
The Inquisitor: Violette Surana [Tag | Complete bio | Fanfictions]
pairings: Violette x Orsino (once twice), Violette x Samson (current partner).
Ana’s mum.
Orlesian who grew up in Ferelden during the occupation.
Was taken to the Gallows at age 13.
Was a close friend of Malcolm Hawke.
Had her baby (Ana) taken by the Chantry. Later escaped.
Hates the Chantry.
Attends the Conclave in the hopes that Ana might be there.
Starts sleeping with Samson after his capture because he basically said fuck the Chantry to her face and it turned her on.
Hardened Leliana becomes Divine.
Other OC: Neriah Amell-Hawke
Is Ana’s daughter. She got her out of the orphanage after the Blight (thanks, Leliana).
Her father is Daylen Amell. Carver adopted her when he married her mama.
Is 18 as of Trespasser.
Second Chances Worldstate
This one started off as an AU for a fic starring Ana and Alistair which is why these two worldstates are so similar. The point of divergence is that Jowan went to Amell for help instead of Ana for some reason.
The Warden: Daylen Amell [Tag | Fanfictions]
pairings: Day x Ana (friends with benefits), Day x Morrigan (DAO romance and while I did consider for a while not having him follow her through the eluvian, I changed my mind. There’s too much growth potential.)
His father was Maurevar Carver, because I say so.
Main DAO choices include: Sparing Loghain, Alistair becoming a drunk, not doing Morrigan’s ritual because he can just throw Loghain at the Archdemon (which he did).
Helps Ana get their daughter out of the Kirkwall orphanage. Bails on them right afterwards.
Does follow Morrigan through the eluvian and actually ends up being a decent dad to Kieran.
Does not become Ferelden’s Warden-Commander.
The Champion: Alwyn Hawke (yes, again)
Like I said, this was originally an AU, so it made sense to keep the same Hawke. There are quite a few differences, however.
pairings: none.
Does not bring Anders to the Deep Roads. Carver dies.
Suffers from severe depression afterwards.
Goes from purple to full blue after Leandra’s death.
Stays behind in the Fade. Probably won’t make it out in this worldstate.
The Inquisitor: Asaara Adaar [Tag | Fanfictions]
pairings: Asaara x Cullen (starts before DAI, now married).
Meets Cullen shortly before the Chantry explosion. They fall in love.
Not going into too much details because it will be part of Second Chances’ main story.
Other OCs: Ana Surana and Neriah [Main fic | Other fics]
Again, can’t go into too much detail because spoilers.
pairings: Ana x Carver (before the Deep Roads expedition anyway), Ana x Alistair.
Day brings Ana to Kirkwall shortly after the Blight to meet their daughter. She ends up staying after they get Neriah out of the orphanage.
Single mom. Works as a waitress.
They find drunk Alistair in their garbage. Ana wants to help him get better.
Other OC: Issala Adaar [Tag]
pairings: Issala x Varric (post-DAI).
Is Asaara’s overexcited little sister.
Likes to tinker with explosives.
Built a handheld cannon. It’s clunky, not very accurate and is prone to misfire. In other words, it still needs a lot of work.
Varric thinks she’s adorable so he made her his personal bodyguard.
Angry Dalish Worldstate
The Warden: Shaelyn Mahariel [Tag | Fanfictions]
pairings: Lyn x Tamlen (Origin), Lyn x Bethany, (considering Lyn x Alistair between DA2 and DAI but even that might be too cruel.)
Doesn’t want to be a warden.
DAO choices include: Alistair remaining with the wardens because he doesn’t want to be king.
No in-game romance, she was too heartbroken after losing Tamlen.
Eventually starts dating Bethany.
Travels to the Free Marches after the death of her clan to kill the man responsible.
Almost dies in the resulting fight against Hawke (thank the Creators Anders was there).
Goes home and confesses to Bethany that she almost killed her brother and that she would have done it had he not been so badass. They break up.
The two of them reconcile post-DAI, after Hawke and Merrill’s wedding.
The Champion: Kris Hawke [Tag]
pairings: Kris x Merrill (now married).
Blue Hawke.
Sadly couldn’t save Merrill’s clan.
Didn’t want to hurt Lyn that badly during their fight, he was just defending himself. Deeply regrets it afterwards.
The Inquisitor: no one specific yet, but likely a Lavellan romancing Solas.
Alistair stays behind in the Fade.
Elves in Luuuuv Worldstate
The Warden: Kallian Tabris [Tag | Fanfictions]
pairings: Tabs x Alistair (DAO romance)
Probably the most canon-compliant OC.
Main DAO choices include: making Alistair king with Anora as queen and becoming his mistress.
Madly in love.
Will have a happy ending.
No Hawke or Inquisitor yet.
Homecoming Worldstate
The Warden: Elaine Cousland [Tag]
pairings: Elle x Nathaniel (pre-DAO, now ex-husband), Elle x Leliana (DAO romance), Elle x Sebastian (current).
Was BFF with Anora during their childhood.
Actually met Sebastian before he was sent to the Chantry. The two of them had similar lifestyles back then, so when Elle visited Starkhaven with her father, the two of them developed a rivalry of sorts in their romantic pursuits (think Merteuil and Valmont, but a lot more light-hearted). They do spend one night together after learning that he is going to be sent to the Chantry.
Eventually fell in love and married Nate. They kept their relationship a secret, however. They divorced after the Blight.
Main DAO choices include: romancing Leliana, making Alistair king with Anora as queen, sparing Loghain and performing the ritual.
Her relationship with Leliana didn’t survive the distance.
Leaves the Wardens after the Chantry explosion and basically goes on the run from everyone because she feels responsible for what happened.
Helps Sebastian reclaim his throne. They fall in love. (I’m currently writing a fic about this, actually)
Still unsure about her DAI fate. Either she replaces Hawke in HLtA and stays behind in the Fade, or she becomes Inquisitor.
The Champion: Violetta Hawke [Tag | Fanfictions]
pairings: Letta x Isabela (DA2 romance).
Yes, she was totally named after Violette.
Is Kris’ sister.
Carver becomes a Templar.
Spared Anders.
Sails into the sunset with Isabela.
DAI fate will depend on what I decide to do with Elle.
The Inquisitor: no one yet.
Loghain survives HLtA.
I am considering having Neriah (yes, again) be the Herald with someone else as Inquisitor since she’s only a kid. In this worldstate, she grew up in Kirkwall’s orphanage before being taken to the Gallows. She escapes the massacre and Carver eventually takes her under his wing.
I'm planning to have two additional worldstates (I want one per warden origin). One called "Happy Dwarves" with a male Brosca romancing Zevran and one called "Dead Heroes" with a male Aeducan romancing Leliana (and probably Alwyn again, idk). I also have a couple of Cadashes that I want to put somewhere, a woman romancing Josie and a man romancing Divine Cassandra. Idk yet if they'll be Inquisitors or if I'll just add them to one of the existing worldstates. Odds are one will be Inquisitor while the other just tags along.
I probably missed a few things here and there, but that’s basically the gist of it. Thanks to anyone who actually stuck to the end, lmao.
