Can anyone explain to me what happen to the rest of Revka's children? I know they were taken away by the Chantry after they all showed magical talents, and was taken to separate circles, but what became of them? Who was the father? And what happen to Revka? Was she taken to Aeonar for harboring
mages?

[Hydromatic]

I dunno

[stuffystuffs]

Best guess is always:  dead.

[Sifr]

I always wondered that in DA2, specially after the reveal that the Human Mage Warden had more siblings. Where and what Circles did they go to and how are they dealing with the aftermath of the Mage-Templar War? I know we're not going to see any more people related to Amells as protagonists, but it'd be interesting to see an Amell as one of the mage refugees trying to escape the war or if the Warden's sibling, trying to find sanctuary with the Grey Wardens? I wouldn't even care if they were simply a body we find somewhere as an easter egg.

 

As for Revka, I'm going to say that she died at some point after the Blight and/or after the Mage Warden left the Circle, so they never knew.

 

As for the father and the question of how the Mage Warden still had an Amell surname? It's implied they were a big family, so it'd not surprise me if they had some inter-marriage and that Revka simply married a second or third cousin? Otherwise, the husband simply took the name since the Amells were a major player in Kirkwall at the time and it would open doors for him?

My guess; entirely irrelevant to the story and not something they're ever likely to expand upon, so feel free to make up whatever answer you want.

Here is my guess:

 

Revka had a child where ever she lived at the time (Kirkwall maybe?) I don't think it was ever mentioned if her branch of the family lived in the city too.

 

After that child was taken to the local circle and Revka had her second child one of either things happened: she moved to ferelden witht he baby or moved to Ferelden after that child was taken too.

 

The Human Mage Warden was the youngest child and was taken too, but for sure in Ferelden. So the second sibling could have perhaps been a mage in the Starkhaven circle or the circle in Jainen, the second circle in Ferelden, so the Amell children were all kept seperate. Or at least the youngest and the rest.

 

I don't know if it is a process to keep family split within the circles, have we ever encountered a circle mage with a sibling? We just know the children of mages are taken.

 

I think those might be the stories unless the children were just moved, but seeing as Revka isn't around in DA2 I doubt she's still there if she ever was.

[Ap0crypha]

I have this weird headcanon that one of Revka's mage daughters disappeared--or, more accurately, was kidnapped--at a young age. The kidnapper took the daughter to Ferelden, south into the Korcari Wilds, and raised her in isolation. We know her as Morrigan.

 

The only reason this came about is because she has a slight resemblance to Bethany (gold eyes, dark hair, pale skin), and because I think Flemeth would find it amusing to learn that the refugees she rescue are related to the little girl she stole so long ago. And maybe because I wanted my Hawke to be distantly related to the OGB without playing a mage Warden.

 

Granted, this is highly unlikely, as it would mean that male Amells who romanced her would be dating their sister, but since I didn't play as an Amell, it's just my headcanon until proven otherwise.

The Mage Warden is implied to have been the oldest child that was taken to the Circle, with the others being their younger siblings. It's also mentioned that the Amells fell out of power in the city (and lost the running to become the next Viscount) when Revka had children who were discovered to have magic.

 

As for why no Amell children ever ended up in the Gallows, since the Amells were powerful and probably wanted to avoid anymore scandal than was possible while they tried to restore their damaged reputation, they probably bribed some people to keep them out of Kirkwall.

 

The segregation of family units also seems to be common practice with mage families. This (and his father being a Templar) is why Rhys never ended up in the same Circle as Wynne, for instance.

It seems that amell warden is older than hawke so we have their harrowing about them being 25 years old or more. It would end far better for amell warden if they were in Gallows than FC . 

[NoForgiveness]

who the **** is revka?

[Former_Fiend]

who the **** is revka?

 

From what I've gathered, Human Mage Warden's mom.

[TheKomandorShepard]

who the **** is revka?

 

Human mage warden mother and leandra (hawke mother) cousin

[NoForgiveness]

ahh okay. makes sense, thanks

[CENIC]

I like to think Warden Amell might have younger siblings in other Circles. Mages don't necessarily stay in the Circle closest to where they were born, so... they could be anywhere.
With the advent of the Mage/Templar War, the chances that any of them could still be alive are slim, though.

Okay, I see. Where is this hinted?

[Sifr]

Leandra suggests that the child that was discovered to have magic became the Warden, with the implication being that they were the eldest as otherwise this wouldn't have become such a shock to the family. Coupled with her mention that they all Revka's children were taken the Circle means that Revka apparently didn't have any non-magical children, but kept having Mage children.

 

While I can understand that there wasn't their intention in Origins, the Warden not mentioning any siblings in Origins would also fit with their being the eldest, either being taken at an age where they didn't remembering having any siblings or having siblings born after they were taken to the Circle so they never knew them (Bethany mentions that Circle Mages don't tend to know their siblings, just as names in a file).

[Halfdan The Menace]

Maybe the Inquisitor is the bastard son of Revka.

[EkhidnaDrakaina]

I always had a suspicion Quentin was Revka Amell's husband. He had an Amell family crest in his base, as well as how much Leandra supposably looked like his dead wife.

You know, that's just become my favourite new bit of headcanon.

 

Would also fit the theory that Revka died after the Blight, which is when the murders started, as well as why she kept having so many magical children, if her husband was secretly an apostate all along.

 

And incidentally, it's disturbing how much he looks like my Amell Warden, now I look at the two.

So the Amell Warden's father may have been a psycho necromancer?

 

Cool. This makes it all the more likely I'll import my Amell playthrough to Inquisition.

Gaider's shot down any relationship to the Amell family. 

[MisterJB]

Upon learning their cousin was the Champion of Kirkwall, they had decided to request the Knight Commanders of their respective Circles for permission to visit.

Unfortunately, they were being welcomed by Grand Cleric Elthina when Anders destroyed the Chantry.

Wouldn't they have feel much more compelled to visit their brother/sister, the Hero of Ferelden?

The Hero of Ferelden may or may not be an Amell, but Hawke always is.

 

Besides, they've had six years to visit the Warden at that point, so who says they haven't?

Well, by then my Amell Warden had already ran off with a Witch through a magic mirror with their child who possesses the soul of an Old God...

 

As far as family reunions go, I can imagine that going to see how their second cousin was doing seemed like a saner option at the time.
