There is a savage beast in every man, and when you hand that man a sword or spear and send him forth to war, the beast stirs. The scent of blood is all it takes to wake him.

[mattelektras]

all of this happened because of fanatics and arguments about the next world. it’s time we start believing in this one.

i just rewatched the battle for winterfell, and applying it to the DA world ( bc I’m sad like that ) and just wow. imagine. can you imagine that last hurrah, odds are against us, utterly overwhelmed fight for the survival of this world kinda thing?

[andrasteschosen-a]

SOME RANDOM NIK THINGS:

- As per Briala’s ‘I’m surprised they got you sobered up and dressed for this’ comment at the Winter Palace, Niklaus has a bit of a reputation for being on the sauce. He doesn’t have a drinking problem exactly, it’s more a case of a lack of responsibility ( and ambition perhaps ) before life with The Inquisition leading to many raucous nights at taverns or formal occasions - because what does he have to lose? What does he have to live up to? A fat lot of NOTHING. 

- He’s a vain man, not arrogantly so - but he knows how to look good, and likes to ensure that he does. His main point of fixation is his hair, which he takes great pride in ( and subsequently despises anything that messes it up. )

- While Niklaus is both charming and witty in general conversation, he is a terrible liar and cannot play The Game to save his life. This is ultimately due to his inability to conceal his feelings, he wears his heart on his sleeve to a fault.

- Youthful nature and cheeriness are largely a product of his relationship with his parents. His mother babied him and fussed over her darling boy relentlessly, causing his humour and demeanour to always remain somewhat boyish. Unwavering happiness and optimism are garnered from an innate desire to make himself likable; his father’s general disinterest towards his youngest child has fueled a constant need for Niklaus to please people.

- He’s TERRIFIED of the undead. Of all the nasty surprises he encounters in his travels with The Inquisition, the hoard of corpses at Crestwood are what haunts him most. To him, they’re unnatural and a chilling possibility of something that might happen after death. The idea of losing oneself and becoming nothing more than a mindless beast looking to kill is utterly horrifying to him.
