6, 11, 15 for Leda and Noam 💜

ok so 6 - Do they follow a religion or school of philosophy?

Noam is agnostic, for various reasons. First, he's a qunari and a mage. Qun or Chantry, there's little to appreciate in them when what you are is considered an abomination  by both systems - staying away from both, equally, and not worrying about deities is what works best for him. ‘Keep your life and well,enjoy it since you’re at it’ was his philosophy, at least until the Inquisition. (Consequentially, his apostasy never had any political meaning to him. He is conscious to be part of a minority, and will take his peers side if need be, but he is not interested in directly opposing the Chantry or overthrowing the system à la Anders as long as his survival or freedom aren't directly threatened). Second, he's a very rational, scientific person. He's a bit Kantian - the discourse about metaphysics is pointless to him because there's no way to prove or disprove it but a bunch of old myths.

Leda went from the stark 'the Chantry is All Bad' point of view of her teens to a more nuanced ans way softer point of view about it after leaving the Circle. She hides how conflicted she feels about it tho, because she kind of believes in a Maker but she can't embrace any of the religion's principles.

11 -What languages do they speak? How did they learn them?Noam - Common tongue, quite fluent in antivan, very very clunky  colloquial rivaini. he's been in Antiva for years and often traveled and worked in Rivain, too.

Leda - common tongue, started studying orlesian because she likes the poetry

15 - Who is your character’s most trusted friend?

Noam - Josie and Leika (she's now Canon in my Headcanons lmao)Leda - Leliana.

art dump of my two main inquisitors, or “quick stuff I’ve done lately during insomniac nights and in between other stuff”. It’s not bad to finally have some art of them that doesn’t make me cringe, the last time I’ve drawn them was ages ago. anyway Myriem Lavellan, post-Trespasser and taking no shit from no man (or god) and still long haired kicking ass some time during Inquisition  Actual Trash Child Noam Adaar, respectively pre Inquisition and between DA:I and Trespasser, when all he did was coming up with ridiculous and absolutely impractical decorative armors to intimidate nobles

Leika and Noam Adaar -  I have so many feels about them? they are not blood brothers, but sometimes famly isn’t about that

ko-fi

1, 6, 10, and 15 for a DA OC of your choosing! :)

I'll keep going with Leda and Noam - 6 and 15 I already answered in the previous ask!

1- Where were they born? Do they identify with their homeland?

(this just reminded me I need to finish Noam's character page... I forgot about it omg...)Noam was born in Seheron, he was by all means a Qunari. His biological mother , who was also his Tamassran had a crisis of faith and jeopardized her life in the Qun to smuggle him away when he showed the firts signs of magic,to avoid him the fate of the Sareebas. She crossed the sea and got him into Antiva, to a contact that took baby Noam further south. He spent his childhood between various Vashoth mercenary clans in the Marches. Tl;dr, No, he doesn't identify with his birthplace and his knowledge of his own story is very limited. He's lived in the Wycome area most of the time, though, and that's what feels most like home to him.

Leda's official birthplace is Antiva, in the Rialto Circle - but she doesn't know. She is, by all means, a very proud Fereldan

10 - Do they have a major goal or an agenda in their life?After accidentally becoming the Inquisitor, he found out he loves power - Noam likes being influent, he likes having agency over people, after a lifetime of trying to survive circumstances. His agenda is to establish and keep the Inquisition as a powerful  supra-national institution, currently concerned with finding and neutralizing Solas, and helping where needed during times of peace. (There is another silly small thing. Noam never thought he'd live to old age, being a mage merc with a terrible bigmouth and all. But he always mused about setting aside just enough riches to get a tiny house in Rialto by the sea and live the autumn of his life just chilling and drinking antivan wine. After becomin Inquisitor and defeating Corypheus, his chances of making it to old age slightly improved and he thinks he'll do exactly that once he's grown tired of politics - except he's gonna buy a big ass mansion now. And throw hella parties.)

Leda, all considered, couldn't be happier with where she ended up being, a bit by chance, partially by utter recklessness, but mostly by merit. She feels like she’s played her role in shaping the world, tbh. As a Warden and an Arlessa, she works to ensure the relationship between the Fereldan Wardens and the Fereldan Court remain positive and secure - as well as making all that is in her power to make Amaranthine and its people flourish. I headcanon her as becoming a very enthusiastic, active supporter of the College of Enchanters after its foundation, both politically and personally.
