Ah, Nobody. You know?

You know, that one guy who's a soldier for the Inquisition, who just so happens to be Dalish. Who also has the worst name in the history of the Elvhen... And likes daggers instead of bows. That guy. Never heard of him? Me neither. [Indie OC Inquisition soldier, Banal "Inquisition"]

"Clearly." Thora lifted a brow, lips thinning.

"If I had a sovereign for every time someone told a ‘short’ joke I’d be richer than Empress Celene."

[nobodythedalish]

Banal laughed nervously, "I know what you mean!"

He pulled one of his ears downward, as if to make a point, "Do you know how many jokes the humans have about knife-ears? Just the one. Not even a clever one!"

[cloudgazercadash-archive-deacti]

She purses her lips. “Hello up there. That how you usually greet dwarves?”

[nobodythedalish]

"Well! I mean..." Oh no, she looked annoyed. The elf wondered if he should ask about fine dwarven crafts, since he was already digging his own grave.

"I suppose so! I don't talk to many dwarves." Banal winced at his own words.

[momochanners]

Samson? 

But where’s Culle—

—oh :(

—-

Just a quick comic musing of an AU where things turned out differently in Kirkwall…?

[nobodythedalish]

[ cloudgazercadash ]

"Hello down there! Er... Y-your Worship."

[nobodythedalish]

//yoo like for a short banter starter bc i think my muse for banal is finally coming back!

[delayedcorruption]

The comment got to Banal, cloaked as it was in sarcasm and vitriol. Samson’s eyes narrowed, but he said nothing. Either the elf will reveal more, or he will brush all of this under the rug. Both would give answers in their own right. It was only a matter of when.

"I wasn’t keeping it together," Samson responded bluntly. The Order had fallen apart due to the conflict. Long before that, even. They were collared by the Chantry and the dwarf dust, they were abandoned when no longer useful. The Templars were falling apart, so Samson took the leadership that Corypheus offered and changed it. 

It was better to go down into a blaze of glory, was it not? Better than fading to nothingness. 

"I gave them a new purpose. I gave them a reason to be proud, to fight. I turned broken men—" Into corruptions. Into monsters. All in the name of the Elder One. "—Into something more.”

[nobodythedalish]

"By torturing them and turning them into abominations, you mean." His eyes met Samson's with a wry smirk. "Well done. I'm sure that anyone who refused such a generous offer was just left alone?"

The shield of humor the elf had often sheltered himself with was gone, tossed away in anger of the prisoner's words. And what was left of him was incredibly bitter over the exchange. "You took them from one user to another. Or are you really naive enough to think that your Elder One wouldn't throw them out once he didn't need them?"

He paused, just for a moment, and the shield was back where it belonged. Banal leaned against the wall next to the cell, crossing his arms. "I think I'll stick on the side that isn't using literal demons to do their fighting, thank you. What did your Order think of that blunder, I wonder? I imagine it wasn't very flattering."

“A smart mouthed Dalish; how original.” Hawke replied with a grin. “I’m Hawke, Banal, and this is my hideout.”

[nobodythedalish]

"I try my best, ser." The elf matched her grin with his own

He took a moment to look around their surroundings. "So, Hawke, what's a shem doing all the way out in the ass-end of absolutely nowhere?"

[forlornpleasures]

“Strange?”

     Seryth bulged his eyes as he sounded out the word, making faces as if it were foreign to him. He clutched at his chest and gasped.

"Goodness! Me? Strange? No…That’s a first! Never heard that one before. Not once. Not a single time…Is that what they’re calling me now of all things…strange? Oh perish the thought! You musn’t believe these silly things. The last rumor going around was about my fifteen concubines, and I can confirm that was a complete lie. Completely overblown! I only have two.”

[nobodythedalish]

Banal was taken aback by the response, raising a brow to Seryth. "Oh really?" There's laughter in his voice, "I heard it was up to twenty, recently. How scandalous, to know it was only two!"

[wingsofhawke]

"A Dalish? I didn’t think there were Dalish in these parts? How did you find me?"

[nobodythedalish]

"... By walking. Perhaps you've heard of it?"

"Andaran atish'an, stranger! I'm Banal, who might you be?"

[forlornpleasures]

"Shame…perhaps you could sit on my lap then? Could be a Father Wintersend sort of thing."

     He plopped onto his throne lazily, patting his thigh with a wide grin.

[nobodythedalish]

The elf chuckled lightly, running a hand through his hair and trying his best to not look embarrassed. "No... no thank you, sir." He bore a lopsided grin to the other man.

"A bit of a strange one, you are, Inquisitor. I have to say I wasn't expecting that!"

[forlornpleasures]

"Enjoying yourself?"

     Crossing his arms over his chest, the Inquisitor smirked at the flustered elf before him.

"By all means sit, it’s not every day you get to sit in a fancy throne. Not to mention I would have to sit in your lap if you did so. You could brag to all the servants about my ass."

[nobodythedalish]

Banal's brow shot up at the comment, trying to mask the amusement in his voice as he began to stand up.

"I... believe I'll have to decline, your worship. It's not every day one gets kicked out of one of the largest armies in Thedas by archer fire, either."

[nobodythedalish]

[ forlornpleasures ]

"Ah, Inquisitor!"

"It's nice to see you! Um... at your big throne chair. I was only sitting in it for a moment, my apologies!"
