So I have this dragon age OC Arinth. He’s an apostate elf that Cullen made his Mage-Captain and he runs a keep (either out of an abandoned Circle or Caer Oswin) He has no brain mouth filter, has a thing for warriors, and has a soft spot for Tranquil. Cullen found him running a commune of Mages, Tranquil, and even a few Templars who didn’t want anything to do with the mage rebellion and thought he had potential. He is not at all qualified to run any armies, but makes up for it with an unexpected wisdom, an ability to read situations well, and a genuine desire to protect people. I have a google doc with a bunch of dialogue from him if anyone is interested in checking it out. This description does not do his personality justice at all and I think he might be worth a look.
