Stats
 
Sex ~ Female
Race ~ Human
Age ~ Approximately 30
Class ~ Mage
 
Self
 
Personality ~ Tempest is caring, loyal, compassionate, patient, protective, and optimistic. The word others most frequently apply to her is "sweet." She is not, however, a pushover. She has a will of iron, and a fierce determination - without that, she wouldn't have survived this long. She's also a natural leader and feels more secure when she's in some measure of control over her situation. She is quite religiously devout and finds much comfort in her faith. Tempest has been pretty seriously affected by the traumatic events of her past; she doesn't sleep very much, often has nightmares when she does finally get some rest, and has occasional flashbacks. Her self-esteem and confidence in her abilities are a work in progress.
 
Appearance ~ Tempest has long, thick, curly black hair. Her eyes are striking blue, and her skin is alabaster. She is of average height, with a slender but somewhat curvy built. She has knife scars on her wrists and torso, and carefully hides them at all times.
 
Interests ~ Gardening, reading, singing, praying in the chantry, stargazing, spending time with her family.
 
Background ~ Tempest was a foundling left on the steps of the chantry orphanage in Kirkwall when she was a toddler. As an older child it was discovered she had magic, and she was sent to the Circle. For most of her adolescent and adult life, she was abused by a templar and his friends, and she didn't tell anyone what was happening because the templar scarred her wrists and threatened to accuse her of blood magic. When she was sixteen, she gave birth to a daughter who was taken from her. She was eventually forced to leave the Kirkwall Circle under circumstances she prefers to leave unspoken.
 
Since leaving Kirkwall, Tempest had been living on the run. She was reunited with her birth daughter Cara, and also adopted two orphaned mage children named Annice and Minnow. Tempest and her three children currently live with a group of other mages who refer to themselves as a Circle, although they have to live as apostates due to the war.

I am so pleased that you decided to go with Tempest after all! She's an awesome character, and it's great to see both sides of the Circle system represented in the campaign. :)

A few other random facts about Tempest that her adventuring companions would notice just from spending time with her, no special insight or conversation needed:

 

Tempest keeps her wrists covered at all times, with wrappings as well as her sleeves. You'll never see bare skin on her wrists. Ever. :P

 

She has frequent and sometimes rather vocal nightmares, about which she is intensely self-conscious.

 

Tempest has a blue scarf that she almost always wears around her neck. It was a gift from a friend and is very important to her. If you want to know the story behind it, ask her sometime. ;)

This questionnaire about Inquisitors was taken from the Cullen thread, but I thought it might be fun to answer it here as background since Tempest is both my Inquisitor and my RP character. :) So...
 
 
1. What colour best represents them?
 
Blue
 
2. If they were an animal, which would they be?
 
Phoenix
 
3. Which music genre would best describe your Inquisitor?
 
Religious hymns
 
4. What season reflects their personality best?
 
Spring
 
5. If your Inquisitor was a force of nature, what kind would they be? (hurricane, earthquake, etc.)
 
A gentle rainfall
 
6. What’s their alignment? 
 
Lawful good
 
7. Which element best describes them?
 
Water
 
8. What scent would they be associated with, if any?
 
Tempest smells of lavender soap, it's her favorite
 
9. Are they better with children, animals, or neither?
 
Children, but she likes animals too
 
10. What’s the Inquisitor’s favourite food?
 
Blackberry pie
 
11. Can they cook?
 
Yes, and she finds it relaxing
 
12. Do they have any hobbies?
 
Reading, singing, gardening, star gazing, going to the chantry
 
13. Are they very fashion-conscious or more practical?
 
Practical for the most part
 
14. Are they neat or unorganised?
 
Neat
 
15. Who do you think they’ll get along with best among their companions, if any?
 
Cassandra
 
16. Who will they romance, if anyone?
 
Cullen, if he's interested in her
 
17. Do they have any scars? What are they from?
 
Tempest has scars on her wrists, chest, and lower abdomen inflicted by her abuser.
 
18. If they met, how would your Inquisitor get along with your Warden? Your Hawke?
 
She'd get along with both. Tempest would secretly admire Aria Cousland's noble bearing and Mercy Hawke's snark. They wouldn't agree on everything but they'd be able to be friends anyway.
 
19. What’s your Inquisitor’s opinion on each of the various races, if any?
 
Tempest spends a lot of time around elves in her circle and doesn't see any difference between them and humans. She has elves she considers family members.
 
She doesn't really know any dwarves personally yet so no strong opinion on them. She has nothing against them.
 
Qunari make her nervous, but for religious/political reasons rather than anything racial. She'd have no problem with a kossith who didn't follow the Qun and be wary of someone who did.

I recreated my DA canon characters in Guild Wars 2, so I figured I'd post the obligatory GW2 shot of Tempest. :) The character creation tool isn't as detailed so it's not a perfect likeness of how I imagine her, but this is the Tyrian version of Tempest.

(She's on top of a building because she accidentally stepped through someone's portal, and discovered she really liked it up there so she let me take a picture. ;))

Okay, that is BEAUTIFUL! Is it possible to use the CC without using the entire game?

Thanks! And not as far as I know, sorry.

 

That's actually on a fairly low graphics setting because I play on my laptop; it would be prettier with the settings maxed.
