Dragon Age - Characters thread (OOC discussion)

Oh? Interesting . . . As history or part of this story? Never mind, don't want you to reveal your secrets,  .

Thanks, @tzeenchianapostrophe, for your input. I hadn't really thought of whether major/existing characters would be used in RP, makes sense. Would make a funny RP if each person was a different Inquisitor, wouldn't it? Anyway, at most I'll use Sera sparingly as memory flashback or something to flesh out Thene's character if I use her at all. 

ELAITH

BASICS

Name: ELAITH

Age: 22
Gender: Female
Class: Rogue
Race: City Elf

CHARACTER BUILD-UP

General Appearance/Physical Appearance:
An attractive woman even by Elf standards, Elaith stands around 5'4 with locks of straight long brown hair that falls beneath her shoulders, brown eyes and fair skin. Her face in particular is pale as though she lived most of her life indoors (which is fairly accurate). Elaith's possesses an athletic build making a bit bigger than an typical City Elf but on par with Dalish with a fair bit of scars from her scraps as a mercenary. Her hands are hardened, full of callouses from years of training with a sword and a bow. Elaith's mouth somewhat thin and slightly crooked. She wears ancient Dalish armor that was given to her by her father when Elaith turned 18 along with Dalish greives and boots. Her weapon of choice is the longbow: Telanadas meaning nothing is inevitable in the Elhven language and her longsword: Girl's best friend which is a Silverite long sword. Also wears a Dalish tiara of some kind which found while scavenging an Dalish ruin.

Personality:
At first glance Elaith may look like an innocent and delicate Elf, but it only belies her fiery demeanor. Elaith is stubborn, strong-willed and has a short temper. Described as a "wild thing" by observers, Elaith is brash and confident in her abilities to the point where she'll charge head on when others will not. This unpredictable behavior often gets her in trouble with others and more often than not, Elaith gets into fights with mercenaries and clients. Despite it all, Elaith is a caring figure who will risk her life to help the helpless especially her own kind. She admires friendship, but her volatile and stubborn personality may wear thin on those who are impatient so she is often alone. Elaith enjoys hunting, drinking, fighting and cursing (XD), however she does have a soft side and is fond of flowers and jewelry. Elaith also likes sewing something she got from her mother.

Skills/Abilities/Weapons/Powers:
Trained by her father (and self taught.) Elaith fighting style is strong fast and pragmatic. She relies mostly on her bow, but is willing to use her Longsword if necessary. Elaith is a capable hand to hand combatant who is not above dirty tricks meaning expect a lot of groin attacks! XD However Elaith is reckless and possesses a weak defense which more capable warriors use to their advantage.

History:
Elaith hails from Denerim, to a Dalish father who abandoned his clan to be with her mother: Elaith's mother died in an Elven riot when she was six years old. Fed up with the racism, Elaith's father took her out of the alienage where she spent most of her life traveling from village to village. Elaith's father taught her about the Dalish and the Elven gods and some of the Elven language, in addition he taught her how to fight and how to hunt. Though Elaith loved her father, she ultimately disagreed with his views of the Shemlen, considering how she easily made friends with the children (though she endured racial slurs from the adults.). When Elaith turned 18, she left her father in search for an adventure and has been traveling ever since.

I've actually taken the template from a site where I used to rp but thanks!

CHARACTER BUILD-UP





General Appearance/Physical Appearance:



An attractive woman in her late 20's. It is rumored that Adeline maintains her youthful appearance through the use of magic. Adeline is described to have shoulder length brown hair, brown skin and eyes. She dislikes shoes due to its discomfort and one time as a girl, she sustained a nasty fungal growth causing her to swear off wearing shoes despite the Templars insistence to wear shoes at all times in the Circle, preferring to walk barefoot. Adeline's outfit is what appear to be made together out of various pieces of clothing by merchants while she was on the run from the Circle. It is a very low cut brown dress which show off her "ample assets" (XD), the clothing also shows off her legs (shown in the link below) while her arms are covered by dark brown separate sleeves. The clothing overall is held together by a light brown belt and thick green string. (A visual look below) Adeline wears a necklace pendant, given to her best friend before her death to the Templar. It is simple in design: A flat, smooth golden circle with red engravings that still remain a mystery to Adeline. Her friend Lia was going to tell her about its origins before her death.

Personality:



A kind-hearted and intelligent woman, Adeline is an apostate uses her magic to help the sick and protect the innocent. While somewhat frustrated at the feeling that she could use her powers to help the people of Theadas rather than simple villagers; Adeline nevertheless enjoys the fact that at least she can help some people while hiding from the Templars. Adeline is pensive and likes to write in her journals, detailing her time in the fade and coming up with theories of magic. Adeline believes that people are scratching the surface of magic and that its true potential has yet to be unlocked. While she is a follower of Adraste's teachings and the Maker, Adeline blames the Chantry for holding mages back and thinks that Templars are drunk with power, often getting away with murder and other countless crimes going back to the time when she witnessed drunk Templars murdering her friend Lia because they felt that she was possessed by a demon. Adeline wants to dismantle the Chantry and reform to where it is friendlier to mages. She understands though, that not all of the people of the Chantry are bad considering she's made friends with a lot of sisters (and Mother Bella is the closest person she has to a mother) Adeline struggles with her desire to seek vengence against the Templars and corrupt churches and trying to prove that magic is something to be respected not feared.



Adeline is always calm under pressure, rarely losing her cool and is supportive of the people close to her. When not helping the local village, Adeline loves to dream and explore the fade communicating with many spirits and learning ancient magic. She also likes fortune telling and dream interpretation and never misses a chance to sit down and enjoy a nice herbal tea while taking in the peaceful tranquility of the forest.





Skills/Abilities/Weapons/Powers:



Aside from learning the basics of magic in the Circle, Adeline trained herself in Fade Magic in her dreams. While she's skilled in melee with her staff, the use of other weapons escape her.

History:



Adeline Linet was born in Denerim, immediately after she was born Adeline's mother sent her to the orphanage for unknown reasons. Adeline first discovered that she had magic abilities when she was 5 years old, setting a boy's hair on fire when he was teasing her. It was then Adeline was taken to Kinoch Hold, Ferelden's Circle for training. Druing her time to in the circle, Adeline often went to her room and dream about the fade where interacted with the spirits and explore vast and mysterious dreamworld. Adeline didn't make many friends, she was a shy child, who didn't speak much. The only person she would talk to, was Mother Bella who taught Adeline the Chant of Light and always gave her cookies. Adeline looked up to Bella and wanted to Chantry sister when she grew up. Adeline eventually made friends with an Elven girl named Lia, who came to the Cricle a year after her. They became close and Adeline took Lia under her wing to study magic. Adeline excelled in her studies, becoming a top mage prospect. One night after her 18th birthday Adeline heard rumors about the Harrowing from a mage who just passed his. He said that the First Enchanter and Knight Commander randomly chooses a person whom they feel is ready and the candidate enters the fade from the use of Lyrium. It is then that the First Enchanter summons a demon that tries to posses them. If the succeeds then they are a mage, if not then they are struck down by Templars. The Mage then said that Lia and Adeline were next for testing. Fearing for that that she could lose her friend, Adeline went to sleep and entered the fade. It was in there, she convinced a spirit to masqurade as a demon on the day of hers and Lia's harrowing that way it can be an easy kill and both of them will not be possessed. The spirit agreed and on the day of their harrowing the spirit became a demon who was slain by Adeline and Lia.





Adeline never told Lia about the pack she made with the spirit. She was glad that her friend was alive, but Adeline felt a pang of guilt, when Lia told her that she overcame the demon all by herself and that she felt stronger for it. Afterwards, Lia gave Adeline a necklace, that she made in her time in the Circle as thank you gift for teaching helping her gain enough power to pass the Harrowing. This guilt intensified within Adeline, but she rationalized the fact that her friend is safe and an apprentice mage. When Adeline was 20 she was busy in the library putting books away, until she witnessed Lia being harassed by drunken Templars. They accused her, of being a demon, which Lia denied It was then that the Templars cut her down. Adeline was in disbelief, feeling helpless that she couldn't assist her friend. The Templars then turned to Adeline and before she could do something, used their powers to suck her magic away and knock her out. Adeline awoke in the First Enchanter's office, where the same Templars who killed her friend were accusing her of killing Lia. The First Enchanter didn't believe them, but the Templars insisted that Knight-Commander is calling for Adeline's head and that they have proof. Adeline tried to refute the claims, but the Knight-Commander and the Templars managed to pull off a convincing lie that put Adeline at the scene of the crime. The Knight-Commander sentenced Adeline to death. On the night of her execution, Mother Bella came to Adeline's dungeon with food and supplies insisting that she must escape the Circle and that she destroyed Adeline's phylactery. Hesitantly, Adeline accepts and she fled the Circle to parts unknown. Not knowing where to go, Adeline went from town to town, resorting to theft in order to feed herself. One day, Adeline came across a village in the forest, that was being attacked by Darkspawn. Without hesistation, Adeline used her magic to defeat the Darkspawn and heal the wounded. The villagers grateful for her help, elected her a "village witch" and promised to never sell her to the Templars. It was then Adeline settled down and watched over the village in the forest in the years to come.
