Orphan

[Shadow Quickpaw]

Conner Lavellan. Assassin. Male. Straight.

 

1: Dalish, but accepting. "I believe what I believe because it has not yet been disproven."

 

2: Pro-Protection for all people against both fade demons and worldly corruption. Wishes to convert the circles into a voluntary school, and each mage treated on a case-by-case basis according to their actions and choices. Distrusts the current administration for how they treated his people.

 

3: Believes all people should be judged by their actions. Self-defense good. Dealing with demons bad. Feels kinship towards the oppressed.

 

4: Believes he is a servant of the common man (or elf, dwarf, or kossith obviously), and appreciates honesty and honor. Most nobles can go @#$% off in his opinion.

 

5: Believes that despite the strength of Par Vollen the Qun doesn't work. And he opposes its military spread. He believes Andraste existed and was a friend of his people, but the chantry has twisted her words and beliefs into a corrupt and fanatical cult. The Imperium isn't much better, having been the first slave drivers. The old gods can sod off, as they created the blights.

 

6: Hates the dwarven caste system, but has friends who are dwarves. Wants to improve the lives of his brothers and sisters trapped in human societies without robbing them of their culture and identity. While some of the worst monsters have been human, so too have been the greatest heroes. Incredibly wary of the Qun, but sympathetic towards its people, the Kossith.

 

7: Orlais has become a decadent empire more concerned with its wealth and reputation than the welfare of its people. The times Lavellan clan passed through Fereldan they found a suspicious, but well-meaning people who stayed true to their word. Tevinter shouldn't even exist at this point.

 

8: Believes in doing both what is right and what is necessary to keep all people safe. Would gladly give his life to protect others. Will only work alongside people he knows he can trust.

 

9: Neutral Good: Has no problem working with people that have a shady past, and believes the law is useful only so long as it does its job. When it doesn't, he intervenes.

 

10: To stabilize the world and make it a safer place for everyone. A chance to get some justice for those who have been denied it for too long.

 

11: Depends on the situation. He does his best never to let people down, but he doesn't let their expectations define him.

 

12: Highly perceptive, but lacks social grace. Street smart, and flexible. Talented linguist, and reads people easily. Very sarcastic when people are being stupid or stubborn.

 

13: Uses his wit to put his allies at ease, and sometimes can't resist poking at his enemies. But do not threaten his friends. He is absolutely deadly when focused.

 

14: Believes there is someone for everyone, and commits to the decision  he makes. Never unfaithful, but sometimes worried he'll hurt his S.O. by their relationship.

 

15: He loves his clan dearly, and starts to see the Inquisition as an extension of his clan. He would never abandon either group.

13. Mostly serious. though she still does have a sense of humor.

[WardenSoul]

This is my first play through. Plan to go through successive play throughs as follows:
Human Male warrior, dwarven male warrior. Elven female rogue. Qunari male mage. (Im warrior biased lol. Probs will end up playing the elf as a warrior as well. Though i am interested to play a Qunari Mage.) will post their profiles at a later time. This one is first play through.



Talbot Adaar- Qunari - Champion Two-Handed Warrior - 26 - Male - Heterosexual

1. Are they a practitioner of Andrastianism?

No.

1a. If not, then what do they practice, if anything?

Nothing. Religion is a fallacy. Truth and strength comes from yourself, not a belief system.
Holds himself to a personal moral code and compass however. Acts within his own authority. Only person he need worship and impress is himself. For he is his own God. As he believes each person is their own.
However. Respects decision of others to practise what they desire. Also respects peoples right to practise, and as such, will not interrupt holy times, and places. Nor express his opinions unless asked.

1b. If religious, are they zealots, devout, spiritual, or do they only give lip service?

Not religious

2. Are they pro-Circle?

Yes

2a. If so, are they pro-Templar?

No

2b. Are they anti-Mage?

No

2c. Do they support the Circle, but also more independence for mages?

The most desirable outcome to him is this.

3. Are they pro-Mage?

Somewhat. Plight of mages unfortunate. Mage reaction equally unfortunate.

3a. Are they anti-Templar?

No

3b. Do they support Apostates, Maleficar, and/or Blood Mages?

No. Mages need supervision and security. Apostates dangerous if left unchecked. Maleficar dangerous regardless. Blood mages not as much a concern. Dangerous for sure. But if monitored, little concern.

3c. Do they support Tevinter style rule?

No. Other extreme.

4. What is their opinion of:

4a. Nobility

Indifferent towards them. Those who aid him he appreciates. Others are obsolete in his mind.

4b. The Poor

Same as Nobility.

5. What is their opinion of:

5a. The Qunari Faith

Intense. Stupid. Restricting. No freedom.

5b. Imperial Andrastianism

Unrealistic. Optimistic. Waste.

5c. The Old Gods

Dangerous. A worthy challenge.

5d. The Dalish Faith

He knows little of it. What he does know confuses him. Sounds strange.

5f. Atheism

He is atheist

6. What is their opinion of:

6a. Dwarves

Good warriors. Good ale. Fighting good fight in deep roads. Silly in their fear of the sky. Worthy companions.

6b. City Elves

Puny. Weak. Pretty. Oppressed. No particular use for them.

6c. Dalish Elves

Strong. Hostile. Silly beliefs. Pretentious. Useful, but undesirable in party.

6d. Humans

Good warriors. Populace. Oppressive. Pretty. Worthy companions.

6e. (the) Kossith

Strong. Silent. Qun oriented. Oppressive. Wouldnt want to travel with Qunari. Vashoth ok.

7. What is their opinion of:

7a. Orlais

Glitz and glamour hides true ugliness. People too caught up in 'game'. World will engulf them quickly.

7b. Ferelden

Opposite of Orlais. Exterior ugliness hides its true beauty. Land of warriors and dogs. Unhindered by extensive politics.

7c. Tevinter

Dangerous place. Slavery. Free roaming mages. Avoid.

8. Are they idealistic or pragmatic?

Depends on situation. Idealistic in regards to personal issues. Pragmatic in other areas.
However will strive for most ideal outcome. Going out of way to get it.

8a. Do the ends always justify the means?

To most extents. Bad deeds committed for a good end result is better than trying to play good guy and ending up with a far worse result. However if there is any chance to avoid needless sacrifice, will take it.

8b. Do the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few?

To most extents. If those lives are lost regardless then saving the masses is always his first choice. But if there is a chance to save as many lives as possible. Ideally ALL lives, will try.

8c. Would they sacrifice themselves for others?

Yes. He is but an agent of the Inquisition. Others can rise to the occasion to fill his role. His duty is to his morality.

9. What alignment are they?

Chaotic Good. Believes in freedom and free will. To extent. Mages need supervision. Need rules. Too dangerous. Not old rules however. Need more freedom and less persecution.
Also believe in helping when he can. Will help others and deal with situations as his personal code sees fit.

10. How do they view their role as the Inquisitor?

Here to do a job. So do it. Have fun in between. Make friends. Bed women. Drink ale. But at end of the day. Do your job. And do it right.

11. Are they dutiful, or lazy?

Dutiful. No time for the sloth.

12. Are they intelligent?

Yes. He values those who use their mind just as much as those who use their body.

12a. Are they socially intelligent, and gifted at reading people?

Very. Time as mercenary showed what to watch for physically in possible threats. But can apply to notice subtle social changes in body language.

12b. Are they academically intelligent, and widely versed?

Well read on history of Thedas. Grey Warden material interests him. Strong warriors. Good companions. Selfless. Epitome of hero.

12c. Are they wise, and do they possesses common sense?

Wisdom comes with age and experience. He is wise only in battle. As it is all he experienced significantly. However common sense is something he values. Not only in himself.

12d. Are they adaptable, or unable to cope with sudden change?

Depends. Mostly adaptable. But prefers to avoid change. Drastic change annoys him. Will tolerate so long as it doesnt interfere with his work.

12e. Are they skilled artistically?

No. The arts dont amuse him. Nor does he have time for such things.

13. Are they funny, or serious?

Serious. Quick and to the point style of talking. Can be funny, but its rare.

13a. Is humor a defense mechanism?

No

13b. Do they try to be funny, and fail at it?

No

14. Are they a romantic, or do they fear commitment?

Avoid commitment, as it will interfere. But if someone is found, is committed to the end.

15. Did they or do they love their family?

None he knows of. Grew up knowing the love of only battle and brothers in arms.

EDIT: Talbot is my working name, but I bounce between many. Starscream, Albel, Asterion, Chickenhound, and Ahtar are my faves. But Ahtar Adaar sounds funny, and some of the others dont really fit with the character lol.

[Yermogi]

Herah Adaar (Qunari) - Mage - 26 - Female - Straight

 

1. Are they a practitioner of Andrastianism?

 

Herah isn't an Andrastian, but she isn't opposed to the religion as such. She is a mage though, and so their view towards mages worries her. She despises the Qun, however, and violently opposes their religion (or perhaps philosophy would be a better term for it). She considers herself spiritual, though. She believes in a higher power, she just doesn't really have a name for it.

 

2. Are they pro-Circle?

 

Herah doesn't really care about whether or not there is a Circle- she cares about the mages in it. If they're happy in a Circle, great. If not, get rid of it. She doesn't like Templars, as most of the ones she's run into are fanatics. She would be okay with a Circle if the rights and freedoms of mages were supported. Maybe not total freedom, but enough that they don't feel like prisoners.

 

3.  Are they pro-Mage?

 

She doesn't hate all Templars, but the title does make her wary. She's had bad run-ins with them before. She supports any mage who is not hurting others, and simply wants to live their life. She doesn't think mages should rule everything, because that could lead to abuse in power, but she also doesn't think they should be completely exempt from having a say in their government of whatever nation they live in.

 

4.  What is their opinion of the Rich and the Poor

 

Herah doesn't really care. If they're rich, fine. If they're poor, fine. What happens in a person's depends on the person themselves, not what they do or don't have. If the poor are oppressed, they need to do something about it. If the rich got their money through hard work, good for them.

 

5.  What is their opinion of:

5a. The Qunari Faith - Herah hates the Qun and the mind-numbing blind devotion in requires. It keeps people in servitude and doesn't allow for creativity or individualism.

5b. Imperial Andrastianism - She doesn't consider herself an Adnrastian, but doesn't hate the religion. She finds many of their tenants to be good, but is wary of others, and so has not decided whether or not she is interested in joining them.

5c. The Old Gods - Herah has little knowledge or interest in the Old Gods. She was raised in the Qun, so all she knows is that they were dragons. Not that impressive or interesting to her. If someone or something could prove to her that they had the powers of gods, that view might change.

5d. The Dalish Faith - The gods of the Elves have abandoned them, if they ever existed. She has no interest in them. 

5f. Atheism - The idea of atheism to Herah is laughable. There's too much in the world for there to not be some deity or power at work in it. To deny such a thing is stupidity and arrogance.

 

6.  What is their opinion of:

6a.  Dwarves - Herah likes Dwarves. They hit hard and pull no punches. The Cartel she doesn't care for as much, but she respects their organization and intelligence. If only they weren't so ridiculously stubborn about surfacers not being able to breed with dwarves who live underground... They might actually have a sizable population if they did.

6b.  City Elves - She doesn't have too much respect for them as a whole. If they really wanted equality, they'd either fight for it, or they'd leave. It's their own fault they're in the situation they're in.

6c.  Dalish Elves - While Herah respects them for living within their own culture and being beholden to no one, she finds their attitudes towards City Elves stupid. If the two groups combined, they might actually have something. 

6d.  Humans - Humans are humans. Some are good, some are bad. Some are smart, some are stupid. Either way, they all seem scared of her, so that generally helps.

6e.  (the) Kossith - While she only knows the name Qunari, Herah views her own people with pity and a small amount of disgust. The ones that live underneath the Qun are idiots, and the ones that join them fools. Herah considers anyone who follows the Qun to be a brainwashed idiot.

 

7.  What is their opinion of:

7a.  Orlais - It's fancy, they have good alcohol, and they speak oddly. Also, they're easier to kill than most.

7b.  Ferelden - Fereldens are oddly sturdy, and fight to the last. Herah can respect this. She doesn't much care for the smell of dog, though...

7c.  Tevinter - She's never been. Probably a good thing, since they'd likely try to kill her on sight.

 

8.  Are they idealistic or pragmatic? Herah would consider herself more pragmatic in action. However, she is known to have her occasional flight of whimsy now and again.

8a.  Do the ends always justify the means? Not always. Depends on the circumstance.

8b.  Do the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few? Depends on the few and the many.

8c.  Would they sacrifice themselves for others? Most likely, she would, unless she was in a circumstance where she had to live for her mission.

 

9.  What alignment are they? Probably Chaotic Good or Neutral Good.

 

10.  How do they view their role as the Inquisitor? She doesn't really see herself as a powerful person, but she recognizes a need in the world. If she is the one to fill that need, then she will do her best to succeed and help those who need her. 

 

11.  Are they dutiful, or lazy? Herah is almost completely business; she does her work and she does it well. But she is more than capable to celebrating, and knows when she needs to take off a day or two.

 

12.  Are they intelligent? Modesty forbids... but Herah would consider herself intelligent in a common sense sort of way. She can read and write, but never received any education higher than that. She certainly isn't stupid though.

 

12a.  Are they socially intelligent, and gifted at reading people? Not really. Herah says what she means, and means what she says. She doesn't really care for political intrigue, and if someone doesn't say what they want to, then that's their problem. She can't waste time worrying about others hidden feelings. She is, however, good and figuring out when a person is scared. They're usually obvious about that.

12b.  Are they academically intelligent, and widely versed? ​No. She can read, write, and do basic arithmetic. That's it. She has a limited knowledge of history, politics, geography, etc.

12c.  Are they wise, and do they possesses common sense? This is a strong yes. You don't get to be a mercenary and a mage without having some sort of common sense.

12d.  Are they adaptable, or unable to cope with sudden change? You don't live long as a mercenary (or an apostate mage) without being highly adaptable.

12e.  Are they skilled artistically? She's always regretted not knowing how to paint, but no, she has no artistic ability whatsoever.

 

13.  Are they funny, or serious? Generally serious, but she's been known to crack a good joke or two if the opportunity arises.

13a.  Is humor a defense mechanism? No, just reflex if someone does something stupid.

13b.  Do they try to be funny, and fail at it? ​Herah knows she isn't the most humorous of people, so she generally refrains from making sarcastic comments. She leaves that to Varric or Sera. Sometimes to Bull.

 

14.  Are they a romantic, or do they fear commitment? Herah isn't opposed to being in a relationship; she just doesn't think it's very likely. Firstly, she's a Qunari. Secondly, she's a mage. Also, her hand glows with a weird, green light. Not likely to attract someone interested in a stable relationship.

 

15.  Did they, or do they love their family?  Her only family is her mercenary group. She cared about them, but you can't love someone who might die at any given moment. Unfortunately, Herah has an issue with not forming attachments. She forms friendships and connections with people without meaning to.

 

[Dobyk]

Ooh, I love these! This is actually pretty interesting, it allows for some "rules" so that we can keep our characters "true" to their identity. For now I'm planning to play a male character, although I could go female if I want a straight-mance. Now, let's see how Gallerion will answer.

 

[Gallerion Lavellan, Dalish Elf] - [Mage] - [24] - [Male] - [Gay and proud]

 

1. Are they a practitioner of Andrastianism?  Eer... leave me alone? I'm not going to worship the ashes of a dead woman and a made-up Maker who abandons his own children... So stupid.

1a.  If not, then what do they practice, if anything?  There is a deep spiritual principle underlying our reality.... I'm just not sure it's benign. The answers lie in the Fade.... 

1b.  If religious, are they zealots, devout, spiritual, or do they only give lip service? Certain aspects of religion are very.... intriguing. But it is all symbols and ideas, no-one from the Beyond will hear your prayers, save for a few hungry Spirits...

 

2. Are they pro-Circle? Definitely. Not because of the restraint or control, but because it is a community of learned people with magical talent, where academia thrives. Imagine how much the Dalish would benefit if their Keepers had a similar structure!

2a.  If so, are they pro-Templar? Not! Bigoted, idiotic and worryingly zealous.... these brainwashed warriors are dangerous foes, for heretics like the mages and the Dalish.

2b.  Are they anti-Mage? The Gift is sacred, if dangerous. How can I oppose those who share my potential, even if they are human?

2c.  Do they support the Circle, but also more independence for mages? Bingo. Although too much freedom might endanger the future of the Dalish.... But then again, it's still a better option than those crazed Templars.

 

3.  Are they pro-Mage?  You bet.

3a.  Are they anti-Templar?   Some are nice. And usually don't last long.

3b.  Do they support Apostates, Maleficar, and/or Blood Mages? When it comes to shady mages (like myself), I don't say big words. If you're just running away from buff guys with swords, you're good. Blood magic is gross, degrading and... potentially useful. Just don't let any demons in your little brain.

3c.  Do they support Tevinter style rule? It's like asking "Do you think Andraste was a prostitute?"

 

4.  What is their opinion of:

4a. Nobility Stuck-up, arrogant and.... oooh, shiny! There are many reasons to despise rich humans with titles, but by the Creators, the know how to dress well and to adorn their frail bodies with these fascinating little gold things.

4b. The Poor I don't want to be bigoted but... B*tch please, go check an alienage.

 

5.  What is their opinion of:

  5a. The Qunari Faith - They pray to cows? Glory to the Cow-Mistress!

               5b. Imperial Andrastianism  A human construct, further twisted by corruption.

               5c. The Old Gods  Intriguing... But why giant lizards with wings? I would have preferred giant unicorns.

               5d. The Dalish Faith  Alas, the Creators are gone. I'm not sure they existed in the first place. But maybe they represent powerful archetypes that bind our racial consciousness. Ah, Dirthamen, indulge me, give me the insight to reveal the wretched secrets of this world!

               5f. Atheism  Ah, how you can recognize a true pragmatic.

 

6.  What is their opinion of:

 

6a.  Dwarves  Short, loud and annoying. But at least they're honest. Honest alcoholics.

6b.  City Elves My poor, poor brethen. Soon, it will all change, and we shall reunite.

6c.  Dalish Elves And this is where I say we are the best? Killing deer? Sure. Having a long-term plan and coordination? We have much to learn.

6d.  Humans Curious apes... Let's keep it civil. If you respect me, so will I. Otherwise, go stab yourself before I scorch your ass.

6e.  (the) Kossith - We don't have those in the forests.... Probably the Cow-Mistress crafted them in her image....

 

7.  What is their opinion of:

7a.  Orlais  Pretty, shiny, and deadlier than any forest I've been to.

7b.  Ferelden   Dignity, pride, dogs... But their king is an elf-lover. I heard he had an elven mistress... Also, the Hero of Ferelden was a brave elven lass.

7c.  Tevinter   A society of abominations. Burn. Them. All.

 

8.  Are they idealistic or pragmatic? Eer, sometimes I'm a real air-head. The ears help with letting off steam. But generally, I hold a perfect vision of the future I want to accomplish... If I'm not surrounded by idiots looking for their goats, that is.

 

8a.  Do the ends always justify the means? Eer, I want to say no, but every time I research something people usually complain... and run away screaming.

8b.  Do the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few?  It's all for you, elvenkind. And those humans who are chill enough to support us.

8c.  Would they sacrifice themselves for others?  Let's not promise things we might not accomplish.

 

9.  What alignment are they?   Chaotic good baby. Freedom, choice, self-determination, but also a good heart.... mostly.

 

 

10.  How do they view their role as the Inquisitor?  I mean, I know somebody must do the job, but honestly... sometimes I just want to read a good book and not be bothered every 5 minutes. "Inquisitor this..., Inquisitor that...., Inquisitor I can't find my goat." Seriously humans, I'm not the Maker.

 

11.  Are they dutiful, or lazy? I do a good job.... eventually.

 

12.  Are they intelligent? can i read and write well?  Can you not ask such dull questions, human?

 

12a.  Are they socially intelligent, and gifted at reading people?  I'm quite charismatic, actually, despite my nerdy exterior. I would say I am the cute nerdy type really.... Helps with getting buff, well-endowed lads to go into my tent...

12b.  Are they academically intelligent, and widely versed?   You don't say.

12c.  Are they wise, and do they possesses common sense?   So much common sense - I almost burned 5 aravels while trying to light a fire.

12d.  Are they adaptable, or unable to cope with sudden change?   I am like a chameleon.

12e.  Are they skilled artistically?   I can sing.... Kind of....

 

13.  Are they funny, or serious?  Sarcasm all the way.

 

13a.  Is humor a defense mechanism?   Maybe...

13b.  Do they try to be funny, and fail at it?  Depends on the joke I guess...

 

14.  Are they a romantic, or do they fear commitment?   I've dreamt all my life of my well-endowed prince charming on a white halla, carrying a book of ancient lore, to swear his eternal love. Alas, this dream died long ago (or has it?).

 

15.  Did they, or do they love their family?   Well, my mother was an elven lass who escaped the wretched Orlais Circle... If only she didn't die when she delivered me, I would have loved her... But Keeper Maraliel has always been by my side, and I love her dearly.

 

 

Phew, this actually took some time! Gallerion is patient!

[Umbar]

[Mazha Cadash)] - [Rogue] - [28] - [Female] - [Undecided]

 

1. Are they a practitioner of Andrastianism?

 

No.

 

1a.  If not, then what do they practice, if anything?

 

She does not follow any particular faith, but she knows the Fade exists and is unsure whether or not the Maker exists. Being a Cadash, she is casteless, but she does still believe that Dwarves came from the Stone.

 

 

2. Are they pro-Circle?

 

No. She has never had to think about Mages and Templars before the war. And as far as the Carta is concerned, war means money. Magic fascinates and frightens her, so she kind of sees both points of view.

 

4.  What is their opinion of:

 

4a. Nobility - Those in power are always people who live off the suffering and hard work of others. That doesn't always make them bad people, but that's the truth. Besides, nobles are so full of themselves.

 

4b. The Poor - Poor sods. She knows a little about how it feels to be poor and she empathizes. Enough to think things need to be more fair. Somehow.

 

5.  What is their opinion of:

 

               5a. The Qunari Faith - Those guys all have sticks up their you-know-whats. But their technology is amazing. Maybe there's something to this Qun thing.

               5b. Imperial Andrastianism - What's the difference with the other kind again? Mages have more power? She can see why that's not really a good idea.

               5c. The Old Gods - You mean the Archdemons, right? Yeah, they all just need to die so that the Blights can end for good.

               5d. The Dalish Faith - Bunch of gods trapped in the Fade or some such thing, right? Don't see how that's any different from the human's no-show Maker.

               5f. Atheism  - Sometimes this makes sense. The world just...is. Who cares who made it? The only thing you can trust is your own two hands and what you can do with them.

 

6.  What is their opinion of:

 

6a.  Dwarves - The greatest, most intelligent and most stubborn race on Thedas. They need to throw aside old traditions that don't make sense anymore if they want to move forward to a new world and remake the old empire.

6b.  City Elves - Sad folk, trapped by their own lack of self-worth. They need to stop letting the humans walk all over them.

6c.  Dalish Elves - It's admirable how they hold on to their own culture. But if they ever want to really have a place of their own, they need to get together and do something.

6d.  Humans - They're everywhere, aren't they? They're an okay sort if a little full of themselves. Nothing compared to Dwarves, of course.

6e.  (the) Kossith  - Strange folk. So cold most of the time. But they have a good mind on those broad shoulders.

 

7.  What is their opinion of:

 

7a.  Orlais - Obsessed with all the wrong things. But they have real power, there's no doubt about that.

7b.  Ferelden - Heard they're a good, strong folk. Earthy and stubborn. They fought back a true Blight in just months. That's no mean feat.

7c.  Tevinter - The things they do...one thing you gotta admire Andraste for - breaking the Imperium's power. They'd be ruling the world now otherwise.

 

8.  Are they idealistic or pragmatic?

 

She believes that the world can be a better place, but you really need to be smart about it.

 

8a.  Do the ends always justify the means? No. That sort of thinking just leads to more trouble down the line.

8b.  Do the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few? Most of the time. The house comes before the dwarf. The people come before any house.

8c.  Would they sacrifice themselves for others? Yes. If it was worth it.

 

9.  What alignment are they?  D&D? I'm thinking Neutral -> Neutral Good.

 

10.  How do they view their role as the Inquisitor? A horrible burden thrust upon them against their wishes, at first. Later, an opportunity to make a real difference.

 

11.  Are they dutiful, or lazy? Easily distracted, but dedicated.

 

12.  Are they intelligent?

 

Very.

 

12a.  Are they socially intelligent, and gifted at reading people? Not particularly.

12b.  Are they academically intelligent, and widely versed? Yes.

12c.  Are they wise, and do they possesses common sense? More or less.

12d.  Are they adaptable, or unable to cope with sudden change? Needs time to cope.

12e.  Are they skilled artistically? When it comes to metal and gears, yes.

 

13.  Are they funny, or serious?

 

Funny.

 

13a.  Is humor a defense mechanism? It can be.

13b.  Do they try to be funny, and fail at it? Who doesn't, at least some of the time?

 

14.  Are they a romantic, or do they fear commitment?  Has never really thought about it.

 

15.  Did they, or do they love their family? The family's a big bunch of people. Some of them are lovable, some are...not. Putting the family first can get tiresome...

[Yermogi]

I'm baaaack!

 

Evelyn “Evie” Trevelyan - Human - Mage - 24 - Female - Heterosexual

 

1. Are they a practitioner of Andrastianism?

            She is, but she has some issues with the dogma. She wants to believe, as she has been raised to believe and follow Andraste, but there are certain practices that she finds distasteful, especially concerning mages.

1b.  If religious, are they zealots, devout, spiritual, or do they only give lip service?

Evie considers herself spiritual. She is not a zealot, and does not think she falls into the category of “devout”, but she does believe in the Maker, and to an extent, Andraste.

 

2. Are they pro-Circle?

            Evie has mixed feelings on the Circle. She believes the Circle, as an establishment by which one can study magic with other mages without suffering persecution, is excellent. It is when the Templars abuse their powers and the mages are refused rights that Evie believes every sentient being should have that issues arise.

2a.  If so, are they pro-Templar?

Evie is fairly distrustful of Templars. She believes that many of them start out as good people, but most end up falling into lyrium addiction and gain a sick love of the power they hold over their mage charges.

            2b.  Are they anti-Mage?

Evie finds the idea of being “anti-mage” laughable. Mages cannot help that they are born with magic, and hating someone for having it will not get rid of the issue. She is against mages practicing blood magic and abusing their gifts, but not against the entirety of mages themselves.

            2c.  Do they support the Circle, but also more independence for mages?

On this, Evie would say yes. She believes that all mages should undergo mandatory study to control their powers, but should not be locked up like birds in cages to do so.

 

3.  Are they pro-Mage?

            Can a mage be anything but pro-mage? Mages are individuals, the same as all the others. Should every husband be condemned because one of them is abusive?

            3a.  Are they anti-Templar?

Evie hesitates to say that she is anti-Templar. She would prefer to say that she is against the current institution by which Templars operate.

            3b.  Do they support Apostates, Maleficar, and/or Blood Mages?

Evie believes that all mages have a moral obligation to learn to use their magic responsibly, wisely, and to benefit others, not to harm them. Apostates and Maleficar… they are difficult to condemn, partially because most of them operate in seclusion away from others, so they do not harm others usually. These people, Evie cannot, in good conscious, condemn, because they have not harmed others. Blood Mages, on the other hand, are deplorable, and abuse their powers in a way that they were not meant to.

3c.  Do they support Tevinter style rule?

            Certainly not. Evie supports mages having a say in government, and if a mage has the ability to lead, should, but there should not be a                 system of government where mages are the sole rulers. The only exception to this would be if mages followed the Isolationist view-point               and went to live by themselves in an area where non-magic users were not allowed to be, but realistically, this is highly unlikely to happen.

 

4.  What is their opinion of:

4a. Nobility

4b. The Poor

Evie cannot say much about either the rich or the poor. She was born into nobility, but was removed at a young age due to the fact that she was a mage. As a result, she is largely ignorant of the causes of poverty and the economic workings of nations. She might admit that her viewpoint of the situation is naïve, but she dislikes insinuating that she isn’t in the know of how things work.

 

5.  What is their opinion of:

               5a. The Qunari Faith

What little Evie knows of the Qun terrifies her, especially what she’s heard of the way they treat mages. She would rather be dead than live the life their mages do.

               5b. Imperial Andrastianism

Evie considers herself an Andrastian, but there are certain parts of the religion that she       dislikes and chooses not to follow due to her own beliefs on the subjects.

               5c. The Old Gods

The Old Gods are a highly interesting topic for Evie in a historical sense, but she would not consider following them as a religion.

               5d. The Dalish Faith

Again, Evie finds their mythology fascinating, but would not follow their beliefs. She doubts they would accept her as a member of their religion even if she was interested in it. As far as she can tell, the Elven gods were there only for the elves, if they even existed.

               5f. Atheism

As far as Atheism is concerned, she finds the concept of believing in nothing to be…   strange and troubling because that is not how she was raised, and because the concept itself of Atheism is highly unusual. Even skeptics of organized religion tends to believe in something, at least.

 

6.  What is their opinion of:

6a.  Dwarves

Having never met a dwarf, Evie has no opinion of them, although she would love to study their lack of magical ability.

            6b.  City Elves

Evie knows little of City Elves, other than that they are usually servants and are not treated well. Elves in the Circle are treated the same as humans though, and so the concept of elves being considered lesser than humans simply because of their race is a difficult concept for her to understand.

            6c.  Dalish Elves

The Dalish Elves might as well be mythical creatures as far as Evie is concerned. She has never met them, and until the first Breach, believed that she never would.

            6d.  Humans

She is a human. What is there to say about her own race?

            6e.  (the) Kossith

Evie has never met a Qunari, but is frightened of meeting any due to the fact that she is a mage, and they treat mages horribly. They are the only race that she might consider herself racist towards without having met any members of the race.

 

7.  What is their opinion of:

7a.  Orlais

Orlais sounds lovely. Evie would love to go there at some point and see the sights.

            7b.  Ferelden

Ferelden sounds wet and hears that the people are overly attached to their dogs.

            7c.  Tevinter

A part of Evie thinks that just stepping over the border of Tevinter will subject her to all kinds of terrible blood magic, but realistically she knows that won’t happen.

 

8.  Are they idealistic or pragmatic?

More ideal than pragmatic. Being removed from society for most of her life has made her… perhaps naïve towards the way many things work in the world.

8a.  Do the ends always justify the means?

Of course not! She could never kill someone in cold blood for whatever reason!

            8b.  Do the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few?

Well… maybe… but wouldn’t that be wrong for the few?

            8c.  Would they sacrifice themselves for others?

Hopefully she wouldn’t  have to, but if she did, she would!

 

9.  What alignment are they? 

            Neutral Good.

 

10.  How do they view their role as the Inquisitor?

            With great solemnity. It is a great responsibility, one that she is somewhat nervous about. Evie will do her best to fulfill her duties as best as she can though.

 

11.  Are they dutiful, or lazy?

            She’s dutiful, mostly because she’s lived her whole life doing tasks and studying. Mages don’t really get days off, so she isn’t completely certain what ‘free-time’ is supposed to consist of or what she’s supposed to do with it. Sleep?

 

12.  Are they intelligent?

            Evie is highly intelligent as far as book-smarts are concerned.

           12a.  Are they socially intelligent, and gifted at reading people?

Evie is polite, but not really socially adept with people who aren’t mages. Even mages from other Circles are hard to understand and deal with at times because all Circles are run differently. Politically, she has no idea how to make things work for her.

            12b.  Are they academically intelligent, and widely versed?

Incredibly so. She has not wasted her time in the Circle, embracing her new life as best as she can and indeed with great excitement in many circumstances. She tried to make the best of a difficult situation and believed she succeeded.

            12c.  Are they wise, and do they possesses common sense?

Common sense? To an extent. She knows, after all, not to play with fire or trust every person who comes her way, but street-wise is not a word that can be applied to her in any sense.

            12d.  Are they adaptable, or unable to cope with sudden change?

The Circle does not foster an ability to adapt to situations quickly. Things don’t really change in Circles, so it’s not something she’s ever had to worry about.

            12e.  Are they skilled artistically?

Evie loves to write poetry and also draws quite well. She can also play the lute and has a lovely singing voice.

 

13.  Are they funny, or serious?

            She tries to be funny, but doesn’t always succeed. Still, her attempts to be lighthearted help alleviate tense situations.

            13a.  Is humor a defense mechanism?

At times, yes, but some situations are too difficult to use humor successfully.

            13b.  Do they try to be funny, and fail at it?

Oh, yes. This applies to Evie quite a bit.

 

14.  Are they a romantic, or do they fear commitment?

            Love is not something that a mage can realistically have in most situations. Relationships with other mages are not at all encouraged, and love with someone who is not a mage is nigh impossible to cultivate successfully. Evie would like very much to find someone to love and be with, but has resigned herself to the fact that she will probably be alone.

 

15.  Did they, or do they love their family?

                Evie was once very close to her family… now they’re somewhat distant. She can’t really blame them. Mages aren’t exactly held up with pride in noble families.

[(Disgusted noise.)]

[Abraham Trevelyan] - [Rogue] - [28] - [Male] - [Gay]

 

1. Are they a practitioner of Andrastianism?

Yes.

1a.  If not, then what do they practice, if anything?

1b.  If religious, are they zealots, devout, spiritual, or do they only give lip service?

Devout, but in a pragmatic and sensible way. Unclouded by dogma and absolutism.

 

2. Are they pro-Circle?

Technically, yes.

2a.  If so, are they pro-Templar?

Definitely not.

2b.  Are they anti-Mage?

No.

2c.  Do they support the Circle, but also more independence for mages?

Emphatically, specifically that while the Circle should still be mandatory in order for mages to be educated how to practice magic safely and responsibly, it should also be temporary. Likewise, the Templars should be thought of as police rather than jailers.

 

3.  Are they pro-Mage?

Generally, yes.

3a.  Are they anti-Templar?

Generally, yes. The current Templar system is incredibly corrupt, but he would prefer reform over the order being abolished.

3b.  Do they support Apostates, Maleficar, and/or Blood Mages?

Apostates, assuming they've been trained, yes. The others, no. Some prohibitions are there for a reason.

3c.  Do they support Tevinter style rule?

Absolutely not. One category of people shouldn't be legally above another, whether it's mages or the non-magical.

 

4.  What is their opinion of:

 

4a. Nobility

It's silly, but mostly innocuous.

4b. The Poor

Supportive.

 

5.  What is their opinion of:

 

               5a. The Qunari Faith

Wary due to the emphasis on conversion and the animosity against non-believers. Otherwise, feels it's none of his business what others choose to believe.

               5b. Imperial Andrastianism

Sympathetic to why it exists.

               5c. The Old Gods

Negative due to the whole darkspawn thing.

               5d. The Dalish Faith

None of his business.

               5f. Atheism

Also none of his business.

 

6.  What is their opinion of:

 

6a.  Dwarves

Not much of one to speak of, if he's even met any.

6b.  City Elves

Sympathetic to them and believes the way they're treated is unjust.

6c.  Dalish Elves

Probably never met one.

6d.  Humans

Positive I guess.

6e.  (the) Kossith

Indifferent, again, probably has never met one.

 

7.  What is their opinion of:

 

7a.  Orlais

Finds the culture to be a bit insipid, mostly due to the lack of honestly and the widespread pretension.

7b.  Ferelden

Seems respectable enough.

7c.  Tevinter

Negative, despite being generally pro-mage. An example the extremism is bad despite what side of the line it falls on.

 

8.  Are they idealistic or pragmatic?

A bit of both, but more on the pragmatic side.

8a.  Do the ends always justify the means?

Not one to go out of his way to hurt people, but also doesn't shy away from a hard call if it needs to be made.

8b.  Do the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few?

Generally, yes.

8c.  Would they sacrifice themselves for others?

Yes.

 

9.  What alignment are they? 

Chaotic good.

10.  How do they view their role as the Inquisitor?

Thankful for a chance to make a difference.

11.  Are they dutiful, or lazy?

Dutiful when it comes to important things, but not one to stress over what's inconsequential.

12.  Are they intelligent?

Generally, yes.

12a.  Are they socially intelligent, and gifted at reading people?

At discerning motivations and predicting what someone will do, yes. Emotionally, no. Too blunt for that.

12b.  Are they academically intelligent, and widely versed?

Enjoys learning for the sake of learning and has an active sense of curiosity.

12c.  Are they wise, and do they possesses common sense?

Tendency to always be looking a few steps ahead, so yes, that's lead him to have a strong sense of foresight and generally making good decisions.

12d.  Are they adaptable, or unable to cope with sudden change?

Only when it's a scenario he's thought of and previously considered. If taking truly off guard, he's not strong at coming up with exit strategies on the fly.

12e.  Are they skilled artistically?

Passion for sculpture.

 

13.  Are they funny, or serious?

Not in a life of the party sort of way, but not completely humorous or lacking wit. More along the lines of understated remarks than constantly cracking jokes.

13a.  Is humor a defense mechanism?

Not really.

13b.  Do they try to be funny, and fail at it?

Not usually. Not the type to try things if he sees failure is likely.

 

14.  Are they a romantic, or do they fear commitment? 

Definitely a romantic on the inside, but has a hard time expressing his feelings and is turned off by romantic cliches. Hard to pin down to a certain extent, but will jump in head first once a certain emotional threshold is crossed. 

15.  Did they, or do they love their family?

Love, yes. But not particularly close with because of differing opinions. Specifically a complete lack of interest in fulfilling the expectations of a noble son.

[ChimpokumonMaster]

[IdontknowYet (Human)] - [Mage] - [23] - [Male] - [Heterosexual*]

 

* Hopefully I can keep him heterosexual by managing the dialogue options (DAII…….)

Basically I like to role play a hypocritical, but deep-down, scholarly, human mage whose acting ability surpasses his magical gifts.

He is secretly power hungry and curios about the Tevinter ways. However, he keeps everyone in his party happy with his acting. He wishes to restore order to this world but in the process get famous.

But in fact he is doing all these things so that in the end he can secure himself a comfortable position to pursue his scholarly interests in magic, history and the old gods.

 

1. Are they a practitioner of Andrastianism?

 BIG NO, but pretends to be because of huge crush on Leliana

1a.  If not, then what do they practice, if anything?

Secretly curious about the Tevinter ways and the old gods, but doesn’t really practice anything religious.

1b.  If religious, are they zealots, devout, spiritual, or do they only give lip service?

            Lip services all day in the Maker’s glorious name, when necessary

2. Are they pro-Circle?

 ABSOLUTELY NOT, but again doesn’t show his rage.

2a.  If so, are they pro-Templar? NO

2b.  Are they anti-Mage? NO

2c.  Do they support the Circle, but also more independence for mages? NO, f**k the circle.

 

3.  Are they pro-Mage?

 200%

3a.  Are they anti-Templar? YEAH, TEMPLAR SCUM!

3b.  Do they support Apostates, Maleficar, and/or Blood Mages? No, doesn’t trust other mages to be strong enough to wield blood magic.

3c.  Do they support Tevinter style rule? Very much, but naively believe that all the slavery and corruption can be left out.

 

4.  What is their opinion of:

 

4a. Nobility Secretly despises them. Believe that world order should place magical ability before bloodline. But recognize their social and political importance.

4b. The Poor Somewhat sympathetic towards them. Wish he can help but demands their gratitude.

 

5.  What is their opinion of:

 

               5a. The Qunari Faith Against its suppression of individuality. Finds it an understandable faith for a people he find barbaric and ignorant.

               5b. Imperial Andrastianism A shameful compromise, but a necessary one, approves of its pragmatism.

               5c. The Old Gods Very curios believes to hold many answers.

               5d. The Dalish Faith Curios due to respect for the ancient elven civilization. Believes to hold some answers in connection to Old Gods

               5f. Atheism Meh…. Quite impossible in a universe filled with magic and s**t, equates it to indifference.

 

6.  What is their opinion of:

 Overall he respects intelligent and emotional life in all form. But the ones with magical talent he deems more worthy.

6a.  Dwarves A respectable people with their unique technology. Doesn’t appreciate their insistence on tradition. Enjoys Dwarven crafts.

6b.  City Elves Little respect, only pity. Occasionally useful as whores.

6c.  Dalish Elves Respects, for their magical ability and dignity. Always try to befriend them. Hope they can befriend him and distinguish him from non-mage humans.

6d.  Humans Actually feels indifferent towards most humans.

6e.  (the) Kossith Meh……. Good for muscle. Hates them for shunning magic and the way they treat their mages.

 

7.  What is their opinion of:

 

7a.  Orlais Little opinion, finds their nobility self-aggrandizing arrogant fools. Occasionally enjoys playing intrigue as a means of power struggle.

7b.  Ferelden Too simple of a people to impress. But respect them for overcoming historical hardship.

7c.  Tevinter Envious of the might magisters wield in Tevinter, but disapproves of some practices that give mages a bad name.

 

8.  Are they idealistic or pragmatic? Wut ?!

 

8a.  Do the ends always justify the means? For most things.

8b.  Do the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few? No, unless the few include mages and especially himself.

8c.  Would they sacrifice themselves for others? To a degree, but not life and death or too much money/effort.

 

9.  What alignment are they? 

 

10.  How do they view their role as the Inquisitor? Exciting, good chance to grab power and find answers about magic, the fade, old gods, etc. Also good opportunity to build up a good reputation for himself by helping people……. to some extent.

 

11.  Are they dutiful, or lazy? Lazy back in the circle, interested only in select topics. Although thinking his power should be used for good, never felt obliged to do much. Witnessing the tear in the veil sparked his interest. Also, pending world destruction didn’t allow him to be lazy anymore.

 

12.  Are they intelligent?

 Duh! A mage, spending points in intelligence and stuff.

12a.  Are they socially intelligent, and gifted at reading people? Very much, in fact strongest personal trait.

12b.  Are they academically intelligent, and widely versed? Somewhat, but knowledge of magic is not broad enough. Can be oblivious about other things.

12c.  Are they wise, and do they possesses common sense? Yeah, common sense. Wisdom, not yet.

12d.  Are they adaptable, or unable to cope with sudden change? Very adaptable.

12e.  Are they skilled artistically? No, though wishes to.

 

13.  Are they funny, or serious?

 As funny as dialogue options allow. All part of acting.

13a.  Is humor a defense mechanism? Defensive, offensive, instinctive and compulsive.

13b.  Do they try to be funny, and fail at it? NO! HE FUNNY! END OF DISCUSSION!

 

14.  Are they a romantic, or do they fear commitment? Plays the romantic role occasionally, but knows his too young for commitment or even understand it.

 

15.  Did they, or do they love their family? No, but wish he had. Reason #1 for hating Templars.

 

16. What is their initial opinion (first impression) of the following characters:

            16a. Blackwall: Cool warden dude. Fatherly? Didn’t know his own father, couldn’t tell. Wanted to befriend him.

            16b. Cassandra Pentaghast: Kind of attractive due to being bossy all the time. But too serious and that seeker uniform? Nah……

 

            16c. Cole: Interesting case of demon/spirit possession. Would get to know deeper if not for that hair style and that melodramatic attitude.

 

            16d. Cullen: EX-TEMPLAR SCUM! Commander of inquisition army, so better keep him happy.

 

            16e. Dorian: This guy is going to be his best friend. Shocked and awkward to later find his gay. Struggles to maintain their close but platonic relationship.

 

            16f. Josephine: Nice! He doesn’t really need her ‘expertise’ but he will keep her cause she looks fine.

 

            16g. Leliana: Lightning struck. Suddenly curios about Andrastian chantry. Chats with her whenever possible. Heartbroken to know that she is not emotionally available. Often have dreams about her.

 

            16h. Morrigan: Similar to above. Though a little unsure of her allegiances. More attracted as a result.

 

            16i. Sera: Meh…….. whatever, elf archer who deals in shady business and is badass but actually joins inquisition for commoners. She’s got cliché written all over her face.

 

            16j. Solas: Good source of information but hardly any fun.

 

            16k. THE IRON BULL: Ignorant brute! But better stay on his good side.

 

            16l. Varric Tethras: Instant like. Never goes anywhere without trusty Varric Tethras.

 

            16m. Vivienne: Definitely very attractive, but a pro-cirlce mage who also happens to be a would-be first enchanter? Sees her right through. Doesn’t like her but doesn’t mind her company cause she looks fine.

 

Sorry for long post guys. This is great though. Thank you OP.

1. Are they a practitioner of Andrastianism?

 

1a.  If not, then what do they practice, if anything? 

1b.  If religious, are they zealots, devout, spiritual, or do they only give lip service?

He does not care for the politics of the circle per-say, He only cares about his freedom's and so will support whatever side benefits him. therefor as a Mage he is pro mage but only because what happens to mages affects him.

He views Apostates as no different then anybody else but abhors Maleficarum and Blood Magic beliving any mage that falls to it a failure. as for Tevinter again he cares nothing for politics as long as he's free to do what he wants they could stick a darkspawn on the throne and make a Qunari the divine.

 

4.  What is their opinion of:

 

4a. Nobility

4b. The Poor

 

Coming from nobility he once believed in it but being thrown in a circle abandoned and then thrown starving into the world when the circles collapsed he's found an affinity for the poor, but again not political enough to care or try and change things he'd rather just hang with the have not's and mock those that look down on them. 

 

5.  What is their opinion of:

                5a. The Qunari Faith: An Abomination, he values his individualism and self governance above all else, the Qun is the Antithesis of who he is

               5b. Imperial Andrastianism: Is curious about it.

               5c. The Old Gods: Superstition, believes they were simply animals no different then the dragon cults we see today.

               5d. The Dalish Faith: waste of time, bed time stories elves tell the children to make them fear humans.

               5f. Atheism: doesn't quite understand the concept. But doesn't care.

 

6.  What is their opinion of:

 

6a.  Dwarves: He's never met one, stories make them out to be larger then life hero's of courage.

6b.  City Elves: Pathetic and soft people doesn't understand why they accept being treated like dirt.

6c.  Dalish Elves: See's their worth but doesn't understand why the cling to the old ways, he see's them limiting themselves unable to adapt and grow. Fated to die as humans continue to expand.

6d.  Humans: Views most humans with contempt. Fearful, Superstitious he considers mages to something different to their races above it better than.

6e.  (the) Kossith: vicious savages that attempt to subvert all individual will.

 

7.  What is their opinion of:

 

7a.  Orlais: Pitiful and incompetent. blames their arrogance for both the civil war and producing a weak divine that could not reign in the templars.

7b.  Ferelden: Has heard its populated by barbarians that smell like wet dog. 

7c.  Tevinter: Powerful but corrupt, their belief in slavery makes him sick and angry

 

8.  Are they idealistic or pragmatic?

 

8a.  Do the ends always justify the means? Always? no, but believe's sometimes distasteful things are necessary to achieve a desired outcome.

8b.  Do the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few? depends if where he finds himself in the many or the few.

8c.  Would they sacrifice themselves for others? He's never found anyone worth fighting for let alone dying for............

 

9.  What alignment are they? Don't do alignments it never sits right a look at a characters motivations and desires to decide how they will act. there is never a set rule on what they will and wont do it all depends on circumstance. 

 

10.  How do they view their role as the Inquisitor? Character will develop over time in the beginning it is just a means to survive.

 

11.  Are they dutiful, or lazy? a bit of both

 

12.  Are they intelligent?

 

12a.  Are they socially intelligent, and gifted at reading people? No

12b.  Are they academically intelligent, and widely versed? Yes

12d.  Are they adaptable, or unable to cope with sudden change? He has gotten very good at it.

12e.  Are they skilled artistically? No

 

13.  Are they funny, or serious?

 

13a.  Is humor a defense mechanism? 

13b.  Do they try to be funny, and fail at it?

 

He thinks he is hilarious, but has a dark and twisted sense of humour. Rather then aiming to be funny or deflect with humour he genuinely finds the funny side in most situations and doesn't understand (or care) if others cant.

 

14.  Are they a romantic, or do they fear commitment? 

Doesn't fear commitment so much as doesn't understand it, has never cared about anyone or anything but himself so when romance comes up he doesn't know how to speak or act.

 

15.  Did they, or do they love their family?

Once upon a time he did, but viewing himself as abandoned by his family has shaped the core of his personality. Now he feels nothing for them, they are just like everyone else. he has moved beyond contempt to genuinely not caring what happens to them one way or the other. 

[cindercatz]

I'll solidify mine as the game gets going (always six characters), but I love this. I wish we could define our characters so thoroughly in the keep. All under the hero tiles. It'd make reappearances very accurate.

[Augustei]

Spoiler

[Elessar Adaar-Qunari] - [Rogue Archer] - [30] - [Male] - [Straight]

 

 Are they a practitioner of Andrastianism?
No, Elessar is a theist but believes nothing really beyond that, not spiritual. He does not like The Chantrys stance on things regarding the mages and believes they squander the potential the mages could bring. He doesn't like the idea of the Chantrys involvement in politics and feels they to often happen to advocate Orlesian interests.

 

Are they pro-Circle? & Are they pro-Mage?

Not really, He believes in more freedom for the mages - making better use of them, but does not believe in total mage freedom to live among the rest of the populace like Anders did, He doesn't feel they should have the same rights as any man but should be allowed into more positions in court and slowly grant them more roles in public life (Healers, millitary, firefighters...Generally wherever their magic can be useful) 

He believes they should be free to watch over themselves and perhaps granted their own territory as A vassal of another Kingdom (Like The Valley of the Flowers in The Witcher), But that the Templars should still be around to take care of those that cross over the line

As far as circle/templar politics go, He feels the chantry is full of blind old fools, the Templars are full of idiots that are allowed to much favor and influence, abuse their power and forget their place is below the Crowns of Thedas
As for the Fraternaties:
He feels the Loyalists are apologist fools
He feels The Libertarians and their leaders Fiona and Adrian are moronic fools that are harmful to mages and rush in blindly without any pre-planning. He feels they need to be removed from leadership ASAP
He feels the Lucrosians are sensible and feels he would find it much easier to deal with them then the rest of the circle.

 

 What is their opinion of the Nobility & The Poor:

Being an ex-mercenary (And though not the leader, still A high ranking member of the Valo-kas) Elessar has had alot of dealings with the nobility and though there are certainly good elements among the nobility he generally feels they are a pack of fools. He feels The Orlesian & Marcher nobility are to decadent, slothful/lazy, and blind to the truth of the world, He feels the Ferelden nobility are fools (Fighting wars over trees)
Elessar is generally a bit of an idealist, but he knows what idealism costs and so isn't thinking anything radical like toppling feudalism (Though he doesn't like feudalism [And just because I know some might be thinking this I should add no he doesn't advocate or feel democracy would currently suit thedas]). But he would like to minimize the nobilitys influence in favor of the crown.
Elessar doesn't look down on the poor and doesn't like to see them mistreated undeservingly but nor does he seek to empower them in any real way tbh
 

What is their opinion of:

 

The Qunari Faith: Though he is not Qunari himself and has no desire at all to convert, he finds his anscestors culture and beliefs fascinating and likes to read and learn about it as much as he can, He is also very fascinated by Qunari architecture so that will influence the look of his keep. He disagrees with the Qun but has no feelings of disgust or hatred for it

 Imperial Andrastianism: Once again, disagrees with it but it fascinates him. He does not like the concept of Mage dominance but he likes the whole schism thing as while he doesn't hate the chantry he doesn't like the idea of one political organisation getting to much influence. And doesn't like the idea of any religious organisation having any real political influence.

The Old Gods: Finds their link to the Darkspawn fascinating and believes that they indeed had A direct influence on humanity as immortal dragons or demon possessed dragons (Having studied how far demons can extend "life" such as with Flemeth and how that could likely be pushed much further) and Thedas but while he finds this interesting he doesn't like the idea of it being practiced, especially ever again.

The Dalish Faith: Has toyed with the idea of the Dalish Pantheons "Dark ones" being the Old Gods and the Dalish Gods perhaps being dragons/demons that also had a direct influence on Thedas. But otherwise same as the Old Gods, Doesn't like the idea of their influence or them being worshipped.

Atheism: Has nothing against Atheism but unlike my Warden isn't one himself.

 

What is their opinion of:

Dwarves: Doesn't paint them all with the same brush of course but doesn't like the Merchant guilds dominance of trade and the huge taxation they place on associates, Nor does he like that so many on the surface are assosiated with the Merchants guild or Carta and that so many still maintain their Caste system. So generally doesn't like Surface Dwarves. Thinks the Orzammar Dwarves are foolish for clinging to their traditionalist and Isolationist ways. But is hopeful of what he's heard of King Bhelens rule and their involvement in the 5th blight.

City Elves: Pities them, Otherwise pretty neutral -Doesn't mind them.

 Dalish Elves: While he admires their refusal to submit to the humans, he feels their Isolationist and condescending attitudes are idiotic and so doesn't really like them.

Humans: Doesn't actually like Fereldens all that much, seeing them as "Feeling entitled, like they're owed something". Doesn't mind Orlesians (Except the Aristocracy, but he deals with them alot so has sort of grown used to them), Likes Nevarrans and Anders, Also likes the Tribal Avvar and Chasind from his encounters.

(the) Kossith: Encounters so few of his kin outside the Qun so tries to get to know and get along with any he happens to encounter.. Views the Valo-Kas as his family really.

 

What is their opinion of: Orlais, Ferelden, Tevinter

Sees Ferelden as a backwater but feels it has huge potential that it hopefully will take advantage of, Has heard of the Coastlands trade expansions and their new University. But as Ferelden stands now he doesn't really think much of it

Sees Orlais and Tevinter as dying empires clinging to life, He feels Nevarra will soon be the one to overtake Orlais as the power of Thedas and dictate things on the international stage. And Feels Tevinter might fall to the Qunari in the next few decades. The slave trade disgusts Elessar, But otherwise he doesn't really hate Tevinter but feels something should be done to counter the Magocracy to ensure that the mages arent the ones holding all the power.
  Are they idealistic or pragmatic?

He is an idealist and a realist, While he would like to take steps to implement his idea of A better Thedas he wouldn't be an idiot about it, He wouldn't rush blindly like for example Fiona would. He is dictated primarily by logic instead of emotions and so he will do what he can and work with the oppotunities he is provided, and take steps to provide himself with such oppotunities but he would consider the costs, consequences, risks etc and would not be zealous about it.

Do the ends always justify the means? Yes

Do the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few? Yes

Would they sacrifice themselves for others? Yes... Though he would try his best to find an alternative and be willing to pay some level of price to avoid the loss of his life =)

 

How do they view their role as the Inquisitor? Elessar is ambitious and plans to use this to his full advantage and obtain as much power and influence as possible, he desires to empower the Inquisition and do anything to stop the breach.

 

11.  Are they dutiful, or lazy? Dutiful

 

12.  Are they intelligent? Yes

 

12a.  Are they socially intelligent, and gifted at reading people? Yes, He is a master of the game

12b.  Are they academically intelligent, and widely versed? Yes, When Elessar isn't fighting he is reading

12c.  Are they wise, and do they possesses common sense? I hope so

12d.  Are they adaptable, or unable to cope with sudden change? Adaptable

12e.  Are they skilled artistically? Unlike myself Elessar is A bit of a poet, but nothing beyond that

 

13.  Are they funny, or serious?

 Yes, my first "Humorous" character. Others were Diplomatic and Serious. Elessar uses humor to make light of a serious situation, and to throw others off guard and gauge their reaction. He is also always seeking to amuse himself

14.  Are they a romantic, or do they fear commitment? A romantic....Just a bit

 

15.  Did they, or do they love their family? The Valo-Kas are his family now and he is close with pretty much all of them.
His parents died when he was a bit young but he loved them from what he remembers of them

[teh DRUMPf!!]

[Ashkaari Adaar (Qunari) - warrior-mage (knight enchanter) - 27 - male - pansexual]

 

1. Are they a practitioner of Andrastianism?
"No."™

1a.  If not, than what do they practice, if anything?
In short, it's complicated. Though he was born to Tal'Vashoth parents and raised to reject the Qun, Ashkaari ultimately found that he agrees with it. However, he does not subscribe to the same teachings as most followers of the Qun, believing its traditional practices to be outdated and not compatible with the world beyond Par Vollen. Ashkaari would consider himself of a reformist's school of the Qun. In his travels, Ashkaari seeks to find the truth and integrate that truth into his belief system -- not the other way around.
1b.  If religious, are they zealots, devout, spiritual, or do they only give lip service? 
Subscribing to a religious belief-system of his own making, he is not really zealous/devout since his "religion" is still being formed/reformed in his head with every passing day. He does, however, have spiritual nature to him.
 
2. Are they pro-Circle?
Yes, Ashkaari believes in the Qunari tenants of magic as a danger but also of not wasting resources, and believes that the Circle demonstrates this balance better than his people.
2a.  If so, are they pro-Templar?
Yes, just as the Qun has its Arvaraad.
2b.  Are they anti-Mage?
"No."™
2c.  Do they support the Circle, but also more independence for mages?
Yes, some mages can do more good outside the Circle.

3.  Are they pro-Mage?
Yes, until/unless they use their gift to do more harm than good.
3a.  Are they anti-Templar?
"No."™
3b.  Do they support Apostates, Maleficar, and/or Blood Mages?
"No."™, "No."™, and "No."™
3c.  Do they support Tevinter style rule?
All my "No."™

4.  What is their opinion of:
4a. Nobility
Negative opinion. Human nobility is generally dictated by lineage, not competence, and their societies show it very clearly. Ashkaari generally disdains nobility until and unless they can demonstrate being worthy of their station.
4b. The Poor
Sympathetic. It is society's duty to give them the tools to rise above their circumstances, live comfortably, and contribute to society.

5.  What is their opinion of:
5a. The Qunari Faith
Agree 100% with the values. Disagree with the practices. Again, Ashkaari sees himself as a "reform Qunari."
5b. Imperial Andrastianism
"No."™
5c. The Old Gods
The Qun says that they were "like unto dragons as kings are like unto mortals." Sounds right to Ashkaari.
5d. The Dalish Faith
Ashkaari suspects there is some truth to their creed/lore, some of which may be in play with the events taking place.
5f. Atheism
Ashkaari rejects it, but people are free to believe it if they want (provided their beliefs do not become problematic to others).

6.  What is their opinion of:
6a.  Dwarves
People are not simple. They cannot be summarized for easy reference.
6b.  City Elves
See: 4b.
6c.  Dalish Elves
Ashkaari respects the Dales' resilience and refusal to integrate into a society where they would be downtrodden. As skilled archers and some powerful mages, they would make excellent allies, if they would have him.
6d.  Humans
See: 6a.
6e.  (the) Kossith
See: 6a.

7.  What is their opinion of:
7a.  Orlais
Generally dislikes the frivolous culture, though respects their might as a nation and former empire.
7b.  Ferelden
Preferred over Orlais. Independence won from the empire impressive to him.
7c.  Tevinter.
http://youtu.be/E8vmaj75xzE?t=6m2s
 
8.  Are they idealistic or pragmatic?
Both.
8a.  Do the ends always justify the means?
Sometimes.
8b.  Do the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few?
Absolutely.
8c.  Would they sacrifice themselves for others?
That depends on whose survival is priority.

9.  What alignment are they? 
Chaotic Neutral.

10.  How do they view their role as the Inquisitor?
Duty.
 
11.  Are they dutiful, or lazy?
Dutiful, a real "go-getter."
 
12.  Are they intelligent?
Yes, but virtually everyone considers themselves as such. Ashkaari defines "intelligence" as the ability and willingness to search for truth, considers himself mentally able and holds himself to the standard of willingness (however difficult accepting the facts may be).
12a.  Are they socially intelligent, and gifted at reading people?
No. Ashkaari values being genuine, but telling things like they are does not endear you to many people. He also hates adhering to silly social norms. He does understand that "playing the game" is part of what is needed to get places and is sometimes willing to try, but he is not naturally very good at it and dislikes having to do so.
12b.  Are they academically intelligent, and widely versed?
Ashkaari was brought up in an intolerant and unworldly setting, but he himself values searching for truth, hence why he forsook his born name and assumed the sobriquet "Ashkaari." Ashkaari believes the pursuit of knowledge is one of the most important forces in the world, and all channels to acquire it should be considered. He is not an academic, but sees everyday as a learning experience.
12c.  Are they wise, and do they possesses common sense?
Strange question. Wisdom and common-sense are not opposing values, and Ashkaari values both.
12d.  Are they adaptable, or unable to cope with sudden change?
Very flexible. Inability to adapt spells death.
12e.  Are they skilled artistically?
Though he is a fan of many art forms, Ashkaari is not very artistically skilled himself, excepting his hidden talent for poetry.

13.  Are they funny, or serious?
Generally serious, but humor is largely a result of the unexpected. Take that for what you will.
13a.  Is humor a defense mechanism?
For some. Not for him. Ashkaari processes bad events in his mind very quickly and gets over things just as fast.
13b.  Do they try to be funny, and fail at it?
Attempts are made every now and then, in a very deadpan, dry sort of way. Success depends on the execution.

14.  Are they a romantic, or do they fear commitment? 
Ashkaari is a quiet romantic, wanting to experience love after a very solitary life. At the same token, he knows it is a risky proposition at a time of crisis, since the thing you value can be endangered and that can affect one's decision-making for the worse. If he finds love, he will approach it very cautiously, but will likely find it very difficult to say "no" (trademarked though that response may be).

15.  Did they, or do they love their family?
Ashkaari has not really accepted very many the beliefs his Tal'Vashoth clan tried to instill in him, but recognizes they have still made him the man he is today, knowingly or not. He does not feel much "love" for them, but respects them.
 
 
Kudos, OP. That exercise was lots of fun.

No he is not at all. Asaaranda respect other beliefs but he also like to make fun of them once in a while. He understand the power that faith has, so he wil use it

Asaaranda likes the idea of you being able to letting things stay in the family, but nobles arent better than commoners.

5.  What is their opinion of:

 

               5a. The Qunari Faith

It forces people to think and act in a certain way. It does indeed have a purpose and some perks, but it is a bit to extreme

Well they are good hunters, thats for sure. You can trade with them and all, but he dont want to stay with them for longer than he needs to.

6d.  Humans

Humans, humans, humans. Why are there humans everywhere. That is because they are paper people. Humans are fine and all, but most of them cant take a single hit without dying in pool of blood. It is a bit weird

6e.  (the) Kossith

They can be a bit stubborn, but most of the time they are awesome. And he is not just saying this, because he is one.
