Shy, studious mage who finds herself over the course of the Blight. Accidentally annuled the Circle, saved Connor, didn't desecrate the urn, brokered peace between werewolves and elves, crowned Bhelen, destroyed the Anvil, had Alistair and Morrigan do the dark ritual. In Awakening, she recruited everyone, killed the Architect, and protected the keep. Romanced Leliana, though that fell apart a few years later due to Leliana hardening over time.
Is around in the background for a few things in DA2 and very much around in the aftermath. Is still technically away on her search for a cure just before Inquisition, but comes running back to Ferelden when Alistair sends her word about the Calling being heard by everyone in Orlais. Ends up much more involved in the Inquisition story, as seen in the wild and the tame. (coming soon to an ao3 page near you.)
Very blue spirit healer who keeps finding herself in Situations. She killed the Arishok in Act II, though it nearly killed her and, like Wynne before her, ended up joining with the spirit who most often helped her heal. Which was only the beginning of the things Varric never told anyone.
Romanced Sebastian, sided with the mages in the end, Anders is still alive because it's my AU, okay 8( Went partially into hiding just before Inquisition and, despite Varric actually having called for Carver to talk to the Inquisitor about Corypheus in this world, she shows up anyway. With a toddler strapped to her back.
Technically a mage (though you'd never guess it by how she favors a bow) and technically Dalish, she's a very reluctant Herald. Most of her story will show up in the wild and the tame and is very AU, but for context for the purposes of prompts... Romances Solas, recruits some mages and some templars, has a little brother, Linden, she dotes on and brings with her everywhere because she is terrified of losing him.
Look, things are so AU by the end of Inquisition in this worldstate that DA4 probably won't fit into it in any way. But since it's my default worldstate you can bet your butt I'm throwing Linden in it as my Rook, taking on the mantle of hero after his sister, and working with her ex-lover to save the world.
While I was right and DA:V does not fit into the AU I absolutely am doing a run with Linden as my Rook anyway!!
He's been with the "Stopping and redeeming Solas" crew since the beginning and grows into Varric's right hand man. Which means he's very surprised and feels way out of his depth when suddenly the fate of the world is on his shoulders. Luckily, saving the world runs in the family now. And with the help of some new allies, he just might be able to pull it off.
You know, if having his sister's ex-lover in his head doesn't drive him to madness first.
