What is your Inquisitor’s favorite quality about their partner? Why?Elizabeth’s favourite quality about Josephine has to be her whole hearted dedication. Sure people go on about how hard the Inquisitor, the Herald works. And yeah she and her Inner Circle go and work their asses off going to the blighted ends of Thedas to fight demons, and venatori, and WYVERNS CULLEN, THEY HAVE BLIGHTED WYVERNS!!!!
But Leliana, Cullen, and Josie work just as hard. And in her eyes, Josie works the hardest. Yes, Leliana has her spy network, yes, Cullen spends out training and moving troops, but Josephine has to stand there and smile at ignorant shit heads. She has to be mindful of every little move she makes, of every blighted word that comes out of her beautiful mouth.
Andraste forbid the woman takes a day off!
And that whole hearted dedication doesn’t just apply to the Inquisition. It’s for her too. It’s in the ways she makes sure Eliza has a hot bath and a pot of strong tea waiting for her when they get back. In the ways she makes sure that on mornings when they are to depart to who knows where now her favourite foods are present for breakfast. In the ways she fusses over every little detail when, Maker’s Breath Josie, it’s Just Auntie Lucille coming to visit! And the way she delights over little things that Eliza picks up because they remind her of her lover, and then agonizes the whole way home about how it was stupid and a waste of space or money, how Josie’s going to hate it and ask WHY she spent two coppers on a stupid little book when they have literal libraries full of them!
And most of all, Eliza can see it in the way that she has no qualms about scolding her, never in front of nobles if she can help it, but that goes all out the nearest window and off a cliff when Elizabeth puts her life in danger just for her hand, and seems so blindsided by the fact that the woman who’s been leaving little trinkets on her desk for ages, who’s been flirting with her, and making her go for walks and picnics and whatever else she can think of is actually in love with her. That she knows she is not be good enough to be with her beloved Ambassador, but damn it all, she is going to fight. And she is more than certain if a certain Author doesn’t get a Certain Ambassador’s qualities right in the next book, Signor Ponce face won’t be the ONLY person to have the honor of dueling the Inquisitor in regards to her beloved’s honor.
((Holy shit this just escaped me. I hope it’s sufficient! ))
OC asks for Xeet: #10 and #38, and for Tavis #18, #19, and #23. :D
Oh shit it got long sorry…. You may have prompted potential future solavellan smut btw.
Xeet Lavellan
10. Would your OC prefer to live in the city, the suburbs, or the country?
Xeet would want to travel. That is one of the few things she actually enjoyed about being Dalish. She loves experiencing everything the world has to offer.
Xeet actually enjoyed the Winter Palace. Social manipulation was thrilling to her. But she also loves meditation and solitude.
She may enjoy cities sometimes but eventually nature always calls to her. To visit the Fade while her physical body is surrounded by stars, trees, wildlife. That is such a deep part of her that it could never lose it’s significance.
38. Random thunderstorm! How does your OC react?
Uh oh what have you done? Thunderstorm teasing/ almost-smut happened. OOPS
Basically if Solas was around this would happen….
link
And it would turn kinky really fast. Because thunderstorms kind of makes Xeet go sexually nuts.
OK now to Tavis Lavellan
18. Something that makes your OC laugh without fail?
Tavis loves making people blush. Male or female. Especially very guarded or tactful people. He thinks it’s adorable and hilarious. Any chance he gets; he makes Josephine and Cassandra blush. He actually loves making Dorian blush even more because it’s more of a challenge. But he can do it and he has. Which always seems to make Dorian extremely intrigued. And though Dorian wont admit it, it surprises him.Tavis isn’t manipulative in malicious ways but he finds utter amusement in messing with people. When he goes to the Winter Palace all of Orlais will be swooning and absolutely besotted.
AKA TAVIS IS CHARMING AS FUCK
19. Something that makes your OC cry without fail?
Tavis rarely reveals his negative emotions to others. I mean; maybe one person in his entire life before the Inquisition. He clouds his emotions with humor. But when Tavis is alone and something is bothering him he lets it all out. It is kind of similar to how Solas hides his more emotional side with a mask of stoicism.
Yet Tavis has a mask of ‘everything is perfect, jolly and wonderful.’ Tavis’ mask is one of comedy and joy. He only does this to make everyone else happier. Not himself.
He wants everyone but him to be happy. So to the world, Tavis is just a charismatic and exuberant man. But every time he sees a mistake that he has made, as a leader, he sits alone in his Skyhold quarters and sobs.
One of his advisers informs him that they have failed. To him that implies ‘You have failed.’ he smiles at them, says something charming and excuses himself. He goes up to his quarters alone and tears take him in full force because he has been holding them in all day.
The pressure is really truly getting to him. The pressure to save everyone and make them think everything is ok. But it isn’t and he thinks it is all his fault.
23. What is your OC’s first memory?
His mother. She is gone now but she was the strongest woman he has ever known. She made the mistake of trying to protect her son from human bandits and died doing so. She died when he was very young.
And any time he needs strength he calls upon her spirit, not the Elven gods.When Tavis finds strength it is always through the people he knows. Never the gods he was told to believe in.Tavis believes in the strength of mankind.
1, 3, 5, 8, 10, 11
1. Does your Inquisitor believe they are the Herald of Andraste?
Hell no! She thinks it’s some kind of magic gone wrong that left her with the mark.
3. What is their first impression of their companions? Done
5. Does your Inquisitor recruit the mages or Templars? (did they conscript or ally with the mages / did the rebuild or dissolve the Templar order?) Done
8. Who does your Inquisitor leave in charge of Orlais?
She blackmails Gaspard, Brialla, and Celene to play nice because she can’t afford to mess with the status quo too much and doesn’t have the time/energy for it.
10. What would the Nightmare demon have said to your Inquisitor to rattle them the most, if anything?
“We both know you’ll amount to nothing”, “They hate you for leaving them”, “Your clan will fall to ruin because you left and never came back”, “What will they think of your love for the Shems?”, “They’ll never take you back anyway now that you love a human more than your own kin”, “You defile the history of your blood”.
11. Who does your Inquisitor leave behind in the Fade? Done
(5:30 for work gosh what even that's so early!! o: ) Anyway, questions for your Dragon Age meme! I know nothing of DA:I, so here's some random ones that sounded cool ahaha: 2, 6, 13, 19, and 20! c:
(Ikr. That’s just a rude time to have to start work. I do prefer it though.)
2. What is their first impression of their advisers?
Leliana is hard to trust, but seems honest at heart. Josephine is kind and honest about it. Cullen is quick-tempered, stubborn, and looks like a bear is trying to maul his neck.
6. How does your character feel about becoming Inquisitor?
She hates it. Brienne wanted to become a Keeper and this is entirely out of her plan.
13. Does your Inquisitor follow the Pilgrim’s Path in the Temple of Mythal or fight their way through?
Pilgrim’s Path, seeing as she worships Mythal. She isn’t devout by the time this happens, but she still cares for tradition.
19. Do they take the time to hunt the dragons in Thedas or no?
She goes on dragon hunting tours a couple times. She doesn’t fight dragons until she locates a few then goes on a long roadtrip.
20. What’s their favorite location to travel to, if any?
Hmm, probably the Emerald Graves or anywhere with a desert (she loves how the sand is like static orange waves).
3, 5, 11, 18, 22, 24, 25
3. What is their first impression of their companions?
Cassandra is ignorant and quick to jump to conclusions. Varric is a joker who doesn’t take things seriously. Solas is an entitled prick who oscillates between rude and complaint too easily. Something about Blackwall rubs her the wrong way, and she doesn’t trust how selfless he is. Iron Bull is hard to trust because Tal-Vashoth, but she respects him for being upfront about it. Sera is unpredictable and not something she wants to deal with. Cole has good intentions and isn’t like any demon she’s encountered in the waking world, and she’s never met a spirit IRL so she takes him for face value. Dorian is quick witted and honest, although his entitlement shines through sometimes. Vivienne is threatening and has the power to put action behind her words.
5. Does your Inquisitor recruit the mages or Templars? (did they conscript or ally with the mages / did the rebuild or dissolve the Templar order?)
She recruits the mages and chooses to ally with them, although it is a hard decision. She wanted to give them the benefit of the doubt, hence choosing to side with them, but is nervous about allying with them for lack of anyone skilled enough in Haven to manage any potential possessions.
11. Who does your Inquisitor leave behind in the Fade?
Out of Hawke and Alistair, she chooses Hawke to stay behind.
18. Does your Inquisitor spend time solving the astrarium puzzles?
If she has time, yes. She enjoys little puzzles here and there and doesn’t like anyone else having a turn.
22. Does your Inquisitor have a preferred mount? (horse, hart, dracolisk, etc.)
Hart!
24. If Varric was to give your Inquisitor a nickname, what would it be?
I’ve been wondering this for ages. Maybe “Keeper”, seeing as she’s got the self-entitlement of one.
25. Does your Inquisitor have a preferred party to bring with them on adventures? (i.e Cassandra, Dorian, and Varric)
Cassandra, Dorian, Varric/Cole
