This is a private and independent roleplay blog for Alanari Lavellan, a Dalish protagonist of Dragon Age: Inquisition / Veilguard companion + connected secondary characters. This blog is heavily canon-divergent.

blogroll: weptfreedom (you are here); weptpride; huntminded
firstly
don't be an ass. I don't tolerate racism, xenophobia, antisemitism, islamophobia, transphobia, whitewashing, etc.
canon
my portrayal is heavily canon-divergent and weave in elements of other dragon age media, including Tevinter Nights as well as several of the comics.
By default, mentions of Solas reference theharellan.
interaction
this blog is mutuals-only and private; I have limited energy due to chronic illness and prefer to focus that onto long-established connections.
I prefer to limit my dash to those interested in my blog. If there's no engagement (something as simple as an occasional like) on your part after an extended time (by which I mean months in which you are active), I'll softblock and move on.
will interact with multimuses with an inquisitor on roster, but otherwise not duplicate friendly (addenum: except at my discretion).
shipping
emithas is single ship with weptlore; briala is open but selective and limited to women. alanari tbd.
non-romantic dynamics are always welcome!
formatting
I generally will match my partner in terms of regular/small text. Please do not use anything but standard spacing or size below tumblr's small text in replies to me.
smash or pass. for lana AND for em (you choose the era)
meme / accepting but not smashing
Ser Michel's face scrunches up so far at the concept of smashing Felassan's child that it briefly stops looking anything like Hulwen and starts to look again like Imshael, which is impressive, because Imshael doesn't really have a face.
"Pass," he practically gags.
no offense alanari but he prefers your dad
"I heard... about the Arrow," Imshael intones softly to Felassan's widower, a hand that carries a too-soft touch resting on his shoulder. "I am so sorry for your loss." If one didn't know Imshael better, one might, almost believe him. But if Imshael is sorry about anything regarding Felassan's death, it is only that it wasn't by his hand.
Slow steps carry him around behind Emithas, and when he has circled to the elf's other shoulder, he bears a new face. One with Mythal's branching vallaslin and kindโif occasionally deviousโeyes. The expressions are even almost correct.
"I could do you a favor," he offers, in Felassan's voice, though he knows the answer before the suggestion is even made. It isn't a yes he wantsโit's everything else before the no. It's what Emithas wouldn't do, for the thing he must want most. "I would say I knew him almost as well as you did, enough to be a fair substitute. If you wanted just one more night..."
i actually. is this a smash? i want to go home. (i am home.) i want to go more home than this.
I don't feel comfortable making a dedicated fundraiser, but I have enabled payments/set a goal on ko-fi for Gwyn's medical care. so far it has cost us roughly $5000 USD, and now she's in need of a specialist. the nearest available able to see her in a timely manner is 1.5 hours from us. I can provide invoices if asked.
every penny will go to paying off the balance and further care.
the tl;dr of it is: Alanari is no more happy over taking on the role of Inquisitor, and is clear about it being a temporary arrangement.
However. She does accept it. I am keeping my concept of vallaslin of the face being redone should a person experience a change in their life warranting it. Alanari takes on Mythal's soon after reaching Skyhold, in a private ceremony with all the preparation it requires.

there's a new Dalish Wraps recolor out that is about to drag me back into vg kicking and screaming (and yes, Dhavi, it includes an optional mesh for boots)
