Dragon Age

[Callie]

Based off Dragon Age: Origins, which is a video game. Most information was taken from the booklet, which may be more evident at some times more than at others.

Dark times, these are. Welcome to Thedas. You may or may not know what's going on, but I suppose I shall explain. See, the darkspawn are coming back. It was thought that the Grey Wardens wiped them out about four centuries ago, but apparently we were wrong. They're back, and they're not too happy we tried to kill them all, you see. They're coming back with growing numbers, and the archdemon is also around here somewhere. The Battle of Ostagar should end everything, but will it really?

Races
Humans
Humans are a well-rounded people, which has made them the most numerous inhabitants of Thedas, and thus the most dominant.

Elves
Thousands of years ago, elves ruled the surface of Thedas, but today they live in mankind's shadow, whether as an oppressed underclass confined to urban slums or, in the case of the Dalish tribes, forced to wander the ancient forests forever.

Dwarves
The dwarves are a race in decline, as each new day of a centuries-old war against the darkspawn consumes both dwarven lives and the scant remaining territory of their underground kingdom. Dwarves have an innate resistance to magic, preventing them from becoming mages.

Background
Human
Human warriors or rogues only
These humans usually live in the lesser areas of Thedas; they don't have as much money as the nobles, and they are usually not as well-trained as they are. In anything.

Human Noble
Human warriors or rogues only
Human warriors and rogues are always nobles in the land of Ferelden. They are the rulers around there. Most of them look down upon the other beings of Ferelden, like elves.

Magi
Human or Elven mages only
Human or elven mages find that a long childhood of tutelage in the magic arts is finally at a close; it is time to undertake the Harrowing, the long-secret ritual by which an apprentice spellcaster either becomes a full mage... or disppaears forever. From Thedas, from the sheltered life at the magical school they've been at since their magical abilities were revealed.

City Elf
Elven warriors or rogues only
Elven warriors and rogues can opt to become a hardscrabbler city elf confined to the poorest quarter of the city of Denerim. Denerim. If you live there, to most others, you're worthless, and they'll treat you as such. You can rarely escape the discrimination, but when you do, it is bliss.

Dalish Elf
Elven warriors or rogues only
Elven warriors and rogues may alternately choose a proud but trying life among the Dalish elves, preferring to wander the ancient forests in perpetual isolation over letting humankind corrupt the last of true elven culture. Dalish elves tend to be somewhat self-righteous that their way is the only pure way of living as an elf.

Dwarf Commoner
Dwarven warriors or rogues only
Dwarven warriors and rogues may begin in Orzammar, where they are in the lowest rung of dwarven society, and they do what they can to get by... no matter how illegal it may be.

Dwarf Noble
Dwarven warriors or rogues only
Dwarven warriors and rogues may alternately choose a life born to the royal family of Orzammar, where a recently deceased relative has the other nobles all fighting over who will next get the throne.

Classes
Warrior
Warriors are front-line fighters, the backbone of any party under assault. They rely on melee and ranged weapons, supplemented by powerful special abilities that draw from deep reserves of stamina.

Mage
Mages are the only characters who cast spells, which they use both for offense and to support themselves and their party. Although mages may wield physical weapons, they do so without any particular skill; instead; they prefer to carry staves that fire magic projectiles. Mages cannot stand toe-to-toe with enemies as well as other classes can, but they can deal immense amounts of damage and heal their allies when protected by the party.

Rogue
Rogues are crafty combatants who succeed in battle by combining speed, subterfuge, and a wide range of abilities to bring their opponents down in unexpected ways, sometimes before the enemy even perceives danger. Rogues can pick locks with great skill, incapacitate enemies with ease, or sneak up on targets to deliver a devious and crippling backstab.

Sub-Classes
Warrior
Berserker
Only half-sane when in the grip of frenzy, a berserker can become a juggernaut of death and damage, although the bloodlust is difficult to sustain.

Champion
The chamption is never hard to find on the battlefield, fighting shoulder-to-shoulder with allies, shouting encouragement with robust conviction that leads enemies to despair.

Templar
Templars are the bane of an errant spellcaster, neutralizing enemy mages' most dangerous abilities so that the party can close for the kill.

Reaver
Reavers are genuine terrors, masochists who flirt with their own death in the hopes of ushering in that of their enemies.

Mage
Arcane Warrior
The arcane warrior is a mage of unconventional means, forsaking the obvious power of direct magical attacks in favor of becoming an elite combatant with conventional weapons.

Blood Mage
The blood mage is a student of forbidden ancient magic that depends less on lyrium or mana than on the pure essence of life. Their spells are ugly weapons, but powerful in the extreme, able to control the wills of others.

Shapeshifter
Studied in the art of transformation, the shapeshifter is never the adversary that enemies expected they would face.

Spirit Healer
The spirit healer is never rushed, preferring eventual but certain triumph, bolstered by nearly indomitable allies, over flashy demonstrations of offensive power.

Rogue
Assassin
Assassins are efficient killers, able to find weaknesses that they and their allies can exploit to bring an enemy down.

Bard
Only the most innocent of bards consider themselves pure entertainers; many are instead masters of manipulation who hide behind an occupation that provides easy access to people in power. They are not solo fighters, but rather concentrate on inspiring allies or discouraging enemies to tip combat in their favor.

Duelist
Duelists are masters of speed, evasion, and finesse - never there when the enemy attacks, yet always ready with a disorienting blow or a quick strike at a vital spot.

Ranger
The ranger is a friend to the animals - and, more importantly, their sworn ally. A ranger who needs assistance always finds an extra set of teeth joining battle.

Places
Ostagar: Where the King and his family reside (and where the Grey Wardens stay once they are recruited).

Denerim: A place for human nobles and their families.

Alienage: A place inside Denerim where the city elves reside.

Haven: A place for... weird people... and their families (and by weird, I mean mentally disturbed).

Redcliffe Village: A place for humans and their families.

Redcliffe Castle: Place of residence for the Arl of Redcliffe.

Circle Tower: Where the mages, templars, and the Circle of Magi reside.

Lothering: A place for humans and their families.

Brecilian Forest: Where the Dalish elves and their families reside.

Korcari Wilds: The dangerous wilds by Ostagar.

Terms
Grey Warden: A being who is specially chosen to help in the fight against the dark... beings.

Darkspawn: Evil undead creatures that come from the ground. They're slowly taking over, and were thought to have all been killed 400 years ago.

Thedas: Basically, this RP's version of Earth.

Apostates: Mages that the Circle of Magi knows nothing about. If you are an apostate, and are found, it's very possible that they'll torture you for information until you die, or some other pleasant thing.

Maker: God.

Chantry: Church.

The Fade: The place in which you go while you are dreaming or dead,

Tranquil: These are mages that stick around with the Circle for too long. They take too much lyrium, and eventually they go emotionless, and they can't really do anything other than talk.

Blight: The battle against the darkspawn.

Templar: The person who hunts mages by having more resistance and experience to them.

Rules
- Follow the normal rules.
- Grey Wardens are usually male. Because of this, everyone MUST have one male for every two females. And at least one male to begin with.
- Not everyone has to be a Grey Warden; there are many characters who can just help out.
- Have fun!

Name: Lucretia Golden
Age: 24 years old
Gender: Female
Grey Warden?: No
Place of Residence: Korcari Wilds
Race: Human
Background: Human Noble
Class: Mage
Sub-Class: Blood Mage
Personality: Cold, antisocial, fierce, stubborn, bossy, argumentative, ruthless, opinionated, realistic, sarcastic.
Biography: Lucretia used to be a noble. When she was about seven, her magic started showing itself. Her mother had to hire someone to teach her how to control her powers, to hide them, other Lucretia would be taken away to live with the other mages. If word got out that her daughter was a... a... mage, bad things would happen. Her social status would plummet. As Lucretia grew older, she grew weary of her mother's constant concern, and became more... rebellious, you could say. Her father worked a lot, so the only person she really could be close to was her mother, but with Sarah dominating every part of her life, she just couldn't be very close to her. Sarah crossed the line when she decided that Lucretia was to marry this man named William that she'd never before even seen in her life. Lucretia obliged, but only to an extent. Two nights into their marriage, Lucretia slit his throat during the night and escaped. Apparently she stayed in Lothering for a while after that, until she got bored of being questioned and men showing up at her door, being... well, men. After that, her past is a mystery. People don't know where she went.

Other: She's occasionally called Lu by people that are close to her.

Place of Residence: Ostagar
Race: Human
Background: Human
Class: Warrior
Sub-Class: Templar
Personality: Kind, joking, sarcastic, witty, determined, fighter, sensitive, argumentative, stubborn, innocent.
Biography: Terrance's mother was a serving woman that he never really knew. She couldn't take care of him, so she left him in Redcliffe, where he grew up with a kind man called Arl Eamon that took him in. Well, for a while, at the very least. Terrance lived with Arl Eamon until he was about eleven and the Arl remarried; a young woman named Isol. As it happened, she didn't much like Terrance, thought he was nothing but trouble. Well, and there were many rumors going around Redcliffe that Terrance was the Arl's biological son, but also the son of the local barmaid, which was just absolutely scandalous. So Isol persuaded Arl Eamon to ship Terrance off to the Circle so he could train to be a Templar, which he did. He was there a long time, training, watching, waiting. Waiting for what, he didn't know. Until it happened. Isaac showed up, needing mages to help him in the upcoming war, but he also saw Terrance's potential, and asked to take him too. To make him a Grey Warden. It took a lot of persuasion, but eventually, they let Terrance go, and he now looks up greatly to Isaac.

When she was a little kid, she used to not mind Alienage, but her parents were murdered by some other bored elves, and she’s hated the world in general ever since. Cara’s lived on the streets ever since, but people learned not to mess with her, usually due to the problem that when she fights, she fights to kill.

Name: Rainier Lich
Age: 24
Gender: Male
Grey Warden?: No
Place of Residence: Brecilian Forest
Race: Elf
Background: City Elf
Class: Rogue
Sub-Class: Assassin
Personality: Serious, selfish, easily bored, pessimistic, deceiving, charming (when he wants to be).
Biography: Don't trust Rainier, for it will come back and bite you in the ass. If he doesn't kill you when he first meets you, he'll probably just kill you later. You can never be too sure with him.
He was a City Elf, yes, but when he was 11 he managed to convince a drunk human guard that he was Human and that he'd just got trapped in the Alienge by mistake. Thankfully, he had long hair that covered his ears and the guard was too wasted to make sense of anything. So, Rainier escaped into the forest. He'd heard of the Dalish Elves but he had no intention to join them. Even if they didn't kill him and let him in to their clan (which was highly unlikely) he didn't want to speak to anyone. So he begun to hide from the Dalish, in their own forest, while he still made sure that he knew exactly were they were.
When he was 18 he finally dared to venture into a more crowded enviorment. He lives in different cities different nights, spends time in bars and old buildings (pretty much anywhere that seems all right to spend a few hours in).

Name: Rivka Tear
Age: 21
Gender: Female
Grey Warden?: To Be
Place of Residence: Lothering
Race: Human
Background: Magi
Class: Mage
Sub-Class: Arcane Warrior (for now. DUN DUN DUUUN)
Personality: Paranoid, quiet, intelligent, a bit of a whore, stubborn.
Biography: Rivka can easily track back to the exact moment when her entire life went wrong. It was that fucking Harrowing.
No wonder they kept the ritual so secret, it was freaking insane! And not to start with, extremely dangerous. Rivka barely even remembers what happened at it. She remembers getting in to a strange place, but it didn't scare her. Then she remembers pain. And finally, she fell to the floor in front of the Templars, her entire body splattered with blood. They rushed her to the hospital wing, terrified of what she had faced in there (and defeated). That was until the nurse told them that the wounds on her wrists and hands were from her own knife. Then all hell broke loose. Thankfully, Rivka had already seen it coming. Not because she remembered what she had done, but because she's overeheared the other nurses whispering about her wounds. Then she knew it was time to get the hell out of there. First she destroyed her phylactery and then she fled. She got help from her friends, they caused an uproar in the tower while she did it.
Since then she's lived in Lothering, the first place she found. And that's where she has stayed. Until they found her.

Grey Warden? To be.
Personality: Mute, uncaring, traditional, protective, loyal, only likes animals instead of humans.
Biography: Twyla has always been the subject of gossip, the subject of horrible insults. She's used to it. She used to react to it when she was younger, lashing out at them, but she holds herself back and plainly ignores them. By ignoring them, she ignores almost everyone else who speaks to her.
Twyla doesn't want to be a city elf. But she is protective of her family, and she won't leave them behind. She follows the old traditions that come with being an elf. Twyla would make a good Dalish elf. It's only her family that holds her back.

Biography: Nico's past is largely unknown. The few parts he does know about are scattered and put simply, odd.

OOC: So I realized I have no idea how I'll tell Grey Wardens apart from non-Grey Wardens, so I added another thingy to the chari sheet. "Yes", "No", or "To be", and "to be" as in, they're not a Grey Warden yet, but they need to be recruited. ANYWHO. We're starting now. xD

Isaac

I nodded and tried not to seem too distracted as Arl Howe went on and on about Denerim, showing me the sights, so to say. I figured I needn't tell him I was more interested in what the people of Denerim were like than the city itself.

Terrance

I sighed, grumbling to myself as I headed off to find the mage that the Revered Mother had sent me to fetch for her. Sometimes I could swear she did this to rub the fact I hadn't gotten to complete my training in my face.

Lucretia

I found myself leaning against the small hut and just looking out on the Wilds. Flemeth was inside, making supper - likely poisoning my soup. Except she wouldn't really do such a thing. Flemeth considered me a daughter, even though she'd only known me for four years. Not that it mattered - she was the closest thing I had to a mother these days. And she'd taught me a lot of what she knew.

[Jadey!]

Saralith

I bounded through the wilds following the small rabbit and as it went down its hole and I stumbled upon Náwien laying in the under growth "What are you doing?"

Zachery

I streched and looked around amused, I pulled on the undergarmets and then the rest of my clothes before checking for a new letter from my half sisters.

Náwien

I pulled Saralith down by her ankle and growled "Shut up im hunting rather than playing."

[StarStruckJess]

Ivy

After the my servants helped me get dressed. I sauntered off to find my husband to be. And perhaps a cook to make me food.

Hades

I had been up for an hour already, and wondered around the city.

Medusa

I smiled at some passer-byers as I made my morning rounds. I sighed mentally half the people in here were worthless if you asked me. I'd rather just drain all their life force and be on my way. But alas such a wish was forbidden.

Elena

I sat against a wall in the middle of town as I watched it come alive. A window opened, someone let out their dog, some hard-workers already begun to work. It was nice... it felt as if the time had stood still and then it suddenly jumped in to action and everyone hurried to catch up.

Adrian

I stepped outside for a few minutes, I needed some fresh air. I had tried to open a window but it was still like an oven inside. It was driving me insane.

[Ashley (;]

Dameon

I groaned from the light shining in my face. Who the hell decided to come open the tent door? Still not wanting to wake up, I pulled the blanket over my face in an attempt to fall back asleep.

Caralyn

I glanced around quickly, making sure nobody saw me outside of the Alienage. They'd probably send me right back, not to mention kill me anyways. Besides, it wasn't like I was actually escaping. I just wanted to see what it was like outside. Denerim wasn't that great, though, either. Not like I wanted it to be.

I stepped into the street without looking first, not exactly expecting to slam into a carriage, getting knocked to the ground. The driver stopped to see if I was alright, but noticed I wasn't human.
"Pity you didn't step in front of the horses," he muttered with a glare.
I knew there were rules about touching a human, but I couldn't help it. I punched him hard in the face, that lust for blood kicking in as usual.

[Kitkat.]

Samuel

"Morning... is morning..." I babbled as I pushed myself out the door. I was less confused than on a normal morning.

Elsapeth

I wandered back in to the village. I'd been up for hours, just walking through the fields and considering things. Considering the way I thought of people.

[Callie]

Isaac

As we were walking, we saw a girl punch someone in the face. Arl Howe stopped midsentence and fast-walked over there, me following. "What do you think you're doing, elf?" He looked almost ready to beat her within an inch of her life. Wait, elf... elves belonged in the Alienage, didn't they?
"Arl Howe, with all due respect - "
"Hold your tongue for a moment, Isaac. GUARDS! Take her in. We'll get to the bottom of this," he shouted angrily.
"I - "
"Isaac, really, can't you wait?"
"I invoke the Right of Conscription," I said calmly.
Arl Howe gaped at me. "You're not serious."
"I am. If she could get past your guards and walls, she has to be sneaky. She could come in handy, ser. The girl is now under my care," I said firmly, motioning her over to me.
He glared for a moment, then walked off, the guards following after him.

[StarStruckJess]

Medusa

I couldn't believe my eyes, as some girl punched a man in the face. I knew one thing I liked her style, but felt like surveying the scene a little more, rather than just waltz right over to her.

[Ashley (;]

Caralyn

I reluctantly didn't try to punch the Noble guy again, but only because survival instincts said that guy who walked off would have killed me, and he was knocked out cold. "What do you want me for?" I asked incredulously to the only guy left.

"The same reason I told him," I answered patiently, then realized I hadn't told her who I was. If I did, she might understand better, as everyone knew who the Grey Wardens were. At the very least, they should have heard of them. Bedtime stories involving Griffons and the supposed "last" Blight 400 years ago. "I'm a Grey Warden," I explained simply.

I leaned against the wall of our house, bored out of my mind. I wanted to leave, but mother was going to call me back in any moment.
"TWYLA! Get in here and make breakfast!"
What did I tell you.

"You're a Grey Warden?" I asked in shock, taking a step back. "Wait... You want me to be one?"

I nodded slowly. "There's another Blight coming and we need all the help we could get. You would be helpful. It's a chance to help save Ferelden. You might not have heard of it yet, but the darkspawn's prescence in Ostagar is very obvious, though the archdemon hasn't shown itself yet." I didn't want to scare her, but she needed to know what she was... well, not getting into; she was in it now, whether she wanted to be or not. The Right of Conscription did that. It was a price to pay for keeping your life, I supposed, considering Arl Howe might've killed her if I hadn't been here. I was glad I'd been; the girl was obviously quite clever; she could come in handy.

I frowned to myself, trying to keep up with what he was going on about. "Guess I don't have much of a choice anyways..." Though that wasn't entirely true. I could just sneak out when I got the chance.
