Oct 21 - Introduce your Inquisitor

Mihika Lavellan

She is originally from Seheron where she spent most of her life avoiding getting caught in the crossfire of the Qunari-Tevinter War with the rest of her clan. Her clan was pretty isolated from most things in southern Thedas, but the story of the Hero of Ferelden did reach her. Although by the time the story reached her, most of the grizzly details were lost and all she heard was "an elf saved the world and everyone loved her." Mihika also managed to get a copy of Tale of the Champion, which soon became her favorite book, especially with the inclusion of an elf from Seheron who stood up to a Tevinter magister and helped defend against a Qunari invasion. Even though she assumed the book was fictional, she still found it inspiring.

So inspiring, in fact, that she volunteered to take on a mission to travel down south to check on the Divine Conclave. Oops. Anyway, it's time for some assorted facts.

She started going gray in her mid-20s because she was stressed. The events of DAI are going to make it all gray.

Fumbled by Solas

Specialized as a knight enchanter because she likes to be up-close in combat. Back in Seheron, she studied some hand-to-hand combat techniques with some Fog Warriors who stayed with her tribe, so she incorporates some of those moves into her magic.

Soft dom

She also almost always uses winter magic because she likes them and they're easier for her to cast now that she's in colder climates

Mount is a giant nug named Nuglas

Her gravestone in the Fade would say "not being liked"

In my modern oc verse, she's a lawyer and a big fan of the Green Bay Packers and 90s r&b. I don't know how to incorporate this into her da verse.

Oct 13 - Introduce your Hawke

He's not the Hawke from my main worldstate, but he is my favorite Hawke.

I'm just going to paste the random facts from a recent ramble I made about him lol

He’s one of my Hawkes, but his name is actually Hwang Seung-gi. Thank you Bioware for giving the da2 protagonist a surname with one syllable. Made it easier for me to aim my Koreanizing beam at it.

I still like the idea that if people do call him “Hawke,” it’s because they’re mispronouncing his name. Also they don’t get that it’s his family name but it goes before his given name.

His father was big on teaching him and his sister to conceal their magic. So instead of using traditional staves, they would use enchanted everyday items which could be easily concealed.

Seung-gi uses a hand fan (non-folding). After he got into blood magic, he modified it so there’s a blade along the edge of the fan. The blood seeps through the paper to the rune he has tied to the knot tied to the handle, further enhancing it and making it about as powerful as an average staff.

Speaking of blood magic, Seung-gi started when he was living in Lothering. He uses the excuse that his family’s crops were failing, but that was only part of it. Really he was curious about the power and he was certain he could handle any drawbacks.

Unfortunately he couldn’t, but Seung-gi’s father realized what was happening before the demon could possess him. He offered himself up to the demon instead, and had Seung-gi strike him down in his place.

No one else in the family knows how his father died. Seung-gi is carrying that to his grave, and it informed a lot of his drive to protect his family (aside from general eldest child syndrome)

Anyway, he’s goth, he’s Korean, he’s in love with Gascard DuPuis, and he sounds like Nick Cave. That’s all I got for you.

Oct 01 - Introduce your Hero of Ferelden

I'm definitely not going to be able to do all of these prompts, but I'm on the hype train so I wanted to do the ones I could.

This is my main Warden, Seonag Tabris. She was born in Starkhaven, but she was shuffled around different alienages before being adopted by the Tabris family when she was 13. She doesn't know when her cold edgy exterior ends and her actual social anxiety and poor self image begins. Doesn't like being a Grey Warden, but she hasn't needed to take her hrt since drinking the darkspawn blood, so she appreciates that.

Used to be a big Limp Bizkit fan, but started to drift away when Wes Borland left. "The guitar is where they got most of their edge and texture," she says to the Landsmeet, but the people did not care. She's more into black and death metal now, so it doesn't bother her anymore. "Where is the Hero of Ferelden?" She was in Derbyshire for Bloodstock 2024 so maybe check back next year idk. She's also 6'0 (if you care about that kind of thing).
