[indent][indent][indent][indent][indent][color=gray]The First Era, [b][color=white]The Divine Age[/color][/b], started and ended with the [b][color=white]Second Blight[/color][/b]. An entire generation of people lived and died through it, not knowing what life without darkspawn was like. It had started in the Anderfels and spread across Thedas like fire. It ended in the [b][color=white]year of 1:95[/color][/b] at Starkhaven as a mostly human force led by the Grey Wardens struck the final blow.

Divine Hortrensia I named the Second Era the [b][color=white]Glory Age[/color][/b], predicting a grand rebirth of the world after the devastation of the Blight. Yet, the rebirth of Thedas would be the upheaval of the social and political norms and a life of hardships more dramatic than the Blight. In the years to come, Orlais and the Dales would come to war. [b][color=white]Divine Renata I[/color][/b] called for a Holy War, leading to the [b][color=white]Exalted March of the Dales[/color][/b]. Orlais claimed the land, and the elvish people either escaped to alienages or took to nomadic traditions. In Ferelden, Teryrn Caedmon declared himself king which incited a civil war. At his death, fighting for power over the region began. This period in Ferelden would be called the [b][color=white]War of Crowns[/color][/b]. Further North, Starkhaven's King Fyruss would try to take over all of the [b][color=white]Free Marches under the Tevinter[/color][/b] banner. 

This was called the [b][color=white]Time of Rebuilding[/color][/b], but it was hard to say would what was truly being forged in the ashes left by the darkspawn.

This all happened within the [b][color=white]forty years after[/color][/b] the end of the Second Blight. There were now inhabitants of Thedas growing into adulthood without the fear or knowledge of the Blight. Yet, that didn't stop the Grey Wardens from remaining vigilant. [b][color=white]Old God Zazikel[/color][/b] wouldn't be the last Archdemon, and they were sure of it. Still a branch of the [b][color=white]Chantry[/color][/b], they were given stipends and notoriety in most towns. They'd not fallen out of favor, yet. So, they took to Thedas to deal with roving bands of darkspawn along with other moral adversaries the Chantry might have. They became hunters of the [b][color=white]wicked and the profane[/color][/b].

Our story begins in [b][color=white]2:35[/color][/b], a newly formed squadron of Grey Wardens are sent from the [b][color=white]Fortress Weisshaupt[/color][/b] to deal with what is believed to be [b][color=white]a new emergence of the Blight[/color][/b]. There's a town in the Free Marches that went silent seemingly overnight. Those that investigated have not returned. No one dares to get close for fear that they'll be next. But those that remember the Second Blight and the darkspawn, swear they can hear them on the other side of the town's border. Your group has been tasked with [b][color=white]eradicating this threat[/color][/b] and saving anyone that [b][color=white]might be alive[/color][/b] within the confines of the town. You've been gifted a templar from the Starkhaven Circle to help. Yet, all the strange and scary aside, the land is in the midst of political upheaval. [b][color=white]There may be enemies in more forms than just those of darkspawn[/color][/b].

Are you ready to embark upon a tale where our lovely protagonists' lives and stories are lost to time? Where their blood is spilled only for their name to be removed from the Warden logs? Where their death will be a convenience to the powers that be? [b][color=white]If so, let us begin[/color][/b].[/color][/indent][/indent][/indent][/indent][/indent]

[indent][hider=A Kingdom in Northwestern Thedas][i]After the First Blight, Tevinter held on to the Anderfels for about 200 years, but abandoned it in an effort to protect central Tevinter when the Second Blight began in 1:5 Divine. The Anderfels was nearly destroyed by the Blight, but saved by Emperor Kordillus Drakon, starting with the lifting of the siege of Weisshaupt in 1:33 Divine. After that, they joined the Orlesian Empire as well as converted to the Chantry. But after the death of Drakon, his successor Kordillus II could not hold the empire together and the Anderfels broke free again in 1:65 Divine.[/i]

Is currently a free country, but in severe disrepair from the damage of the Second Blight. It is slowly rebuilding. While mostly home to humans, there is a small qunari settlement in the Northern part of the country that has thrived for the past 100 years. It is home to the massive Grey Warden Fortress Weisshaupt.[/hider][/indent]
[color=white]𝐀𝐍𝐓𝐈𝐕𝐀[/color]
[indent][hider=A Kingdom in Eastern Thedas][i]Starting in 1:45 Divine, the Chantry spread east into Antiva, and the teachings of Andraste gained favor among the citizens, eventually becoming the main religion in Antiva. Antiva usually remained neutral in the conflicts of its neighbors, though it did ally with some city-states of the Free Marches from 2:15 Glory through the current year to stop the territorial advances of King Fyruss of Starkhaven. In 2:33 Glory, Antivan cities united under a common banner to better defend themselves.[/i]

The Principality of Antiva, or simply Antiva, is a plutocratic nation in northeastern Thedas. Although it possesses few resources of its own, Antiva's location makes it a center for trade in the north. Antiva's wine trade, buoyed by its fruitful vineyards and an aggressive approach to trading practices with other nations, is one of the country's main resources, allowing for a relatively prosperous life for its citizens. Its capital is Antiva City, which lies in the middle of its coastline and is one of the wealthiest in Thedas.[/hider][/indent]

[indent][hider=An Island Stronghold East of the Free Marches]
[i]During the Divine and Glory Ages, the island remained unoccupied and the emptiness coupled with the debris from shipwrecks that littered the coast bred in the Free Marches the belief that the island was haunted or cursed, and contributed to the failure of any Marcher state to claim a lasting foothold on the land.[/i][/hider][/indent]
[color=white]𝐅𝐄𝐑𝐄𝐋𝐃𝐄𝐍[/color]
[indent][hider=A Kingdom in Southeastern Thedas][i]When the Alamarri peoples first split from Neromenians, they migrated southeast and crossed the Frostback Mountains in -2415 Ancient. There, they found a new homeland that would eventually become "Ferelden", which means "fertile valley" in the Alamarri tongue. However, the fertile valley did not become a sovereign nation for almost 3000 years. This period of time is littered with numerous wars the Alamarri tribes waged, both with foreign powers such as the Tevinter Imperium and Orlais, as well as their fellow tribes. During that time the Alamarri developed their own political system which remains largely intact to this day. With time, powerful nobles would turn their land into bannorns, then arlings, and finally teyrnirs. The nobles continued the Alamarri tradition of infighting and continued to fight with each other over petty and personal matters in order to gain more power. That was until the Alamarri warrior Hafter united the tribes in Ferelden against the darkspawn during the Second Blight in 1:40 Divine. Ten years later he defeated combined Chasind and Avvar forces to hold the Ferelden Valley and was named the valley's first Teryn. Move to the current day when Hafter's grandson Teyrn Caedmon declared himself king, and a civil war broke out. He was then killed in 2:18 Glory at the Battle of Valmorn Hills. The fight for power over the region has begun. This period is now known as the War of Crowns.[/i]

Ferelden is best known for the likely birthplace of Andraste and home to the communities of the dwarves of Orzammar and the Dalish Elves in the Brecilian Frest. Life and politics in Ferelden have been historically turbulent, defined by ages of tribal rule and invasions of foreign armies. In Ferelden strength and courage are set above heritage and wealth. Any Fereldan man or woman worth their salt can make something of themselves. Nobles are respected, even revered, but to the common person, they are not untouchable. Respect must be earned, and nowhere in the world is there a people as ready to demand their due as in Ferelden. Outside Ferelden, they are known as "dog lords." The importance of dogs in Fereldan cultures traces its roots to werewolves; mythical wolf-men who factor heavily into Ferelden lore. Many nobles believe their ancestry ties back to them.[/hider][/indent]

[indent][hider=A Confederation of City-States in Eastern Thedas][i]In 1:95 Divine, the last battle of the Second Blight was fought at Starkhaven with a human army led by the Wardens. Both sides suffered heavy losses, but Zazikel was finally slain by the Grey Warden Corin. In 2:15 Glory, King Fyruss of Starkhaven attempted to unite the Free Marches under his banner and build his own empire with Tevinter's support.[/i]

The Free Marches encompass a group of city-states situated in eastern Thedas. The three real cities with any semblance of power in the Marches are Kirkwall, Starkhaven and Tantervale, each led by a titled official with the special right to name their city's Champion. The "Marchers" are independent-minded descendants of tough barbarians. They only recently managed to free themselves from Tevinter's grip after the First Blight when a slave rebellion rose up and reclaimed the city that would be known as Kirkwall. Their cities have formed a loose confederation that rarely unites on any matter. In the event of aggression from larger neighbors, however, the Marchers can assemble a joint military front that even the greatest powers cannot dismiss[/hider][/indent]

[indent][hider=Mountains Separating Ferelden from Orlais and Home to the Avaar][i]This mountain range forms Ferelden's natural western border with Orlais. Gherlen's Pass leading to Orlais is the only Frostback passage safe for year-round travel. The mountains are considered highly inhospitable, and yet they house the native Avvar tribes, and, beneath the northern foothills, most of the continent's dwarves. The entrance to the dwarven city of Orzammar lies in Gherlen's Pass, with its permanent shanty-town filled with traders and petitioners, making it of strategic importance.[/i][/hider][/indent]
[color=white]𝐊𝐎𝐂𝐀𝐑𝐈 𝐖𝐈𝐋𝐃𝐒[/color]
[indent][hider=A Forest in Southern Ferelden and Home to the Chasind][i]The Korcari Wilds is a cold southern expanse of forest and swamp, the extent of which is not truly known. Most northerners believe little of what the Chasind have to say. But the Chasind Wilders speak of a wasteland of snow and ice further to the south, filled only with desolate tundra and nomadic barbarians. South of the Wilds itself lies the mysterious region known as the Sunless Lands.[/i][/hider][/indent]
[color=white]𝐍𝐄𝐕𝐀𝐑𝐑𝐀[/color]
[indent][hider=A Kingdom in Central Thedas][i]By the Glory Age, rule of the Nevarran city-state had changed hands several times. Ineffectual leadership and infighting resulted in a poor populace lagging far behind other Free Marcher city-states. Ionas, the last ruler before the First Pentaghast Dynasty, ruled Nevarra for several decades and was in failing health. Many Nevarrans, including some of Ionas's closest advisers, felt that Nevarra could not survive on its own. Rumors swirled that some of these advisers had brokered deals with either Orlais or Stakhaven and would be rewarded if the cession of Nevarra's lands occurred. This never came to pass as Casper Pentaghast plotted to depose Ionas before he ran Nevarra into the ground or delivered it to its enemies. Pentaghast seized the Nevarran throne, and under his leadership, the city-state's fortunes turned around.[/i]

Unlike most other Andrastians, Nevarrans do not burn their dead but instead carefully preserve the bodies and seal them in elaborate tombs. Each crypt is as unique as the family buried there. They believe that when a dead soul crosses the Fade it displaces a Fade spirit. In order to provide safe hosts for such spirits, they mummify their corpses and place them in elaborate crypts in the Grand Necropolis. This task is entrusted to a secretive order of mages known as Mortalitasi. Its gray-robed members enjoy wealth and political power as they often serve as advisers to Nevarran nobility, including the kings. Dragon hunting has only just begun in the country of Nevarra, and as such there are still plenty of them around.

[indent][hider=An Empire in Southwestern Thedas][i]In 2:5 Glory, the border skirmishes between the Dales and Orlais increased in number. In 2:9 Glory the elves attacked the Orlesian town of Red Crossing and quickly took it over. Orlais declared war, but the elves quickly managed to capture Montsimmard and besieged Val Royeaux. At this point, Divine Renata I called for an Exalted March against the attacking elves. Although the elves eventually sacked Val Royeaux and pushed well into human lands, Halamshiral was conquered and the elves were completely crushed by 2:20 Glory. The Dales were annexed to become part of the Orlesian Empire and alienages were created for the elven population who submitted. By decree of Divine Renata I, any Chantry art in Orlais depicting elves were destroyed save a single mural of Shartan (with his ears cropped.)[/i]

The Orlesian Empire, or simply Orlais, is currently the largest and the most powerful nation in Thedas. It was founded by Kordillus Drakon I and its capital, Val Royeaux, serves as the Chantry's seat of power and home of the Divine. Orlais is ruled by an Emperor or Empress. Orlais has a large noble class famed for its excess, and in particular, the fashionable use of cosmetics and elaborate masks. Their clothing too tends to be complicated and colorful. Orlais is also home to spectacular architecture. The Grand Cathedral, as well as the University of Orlais, both in Val Royeaux, are noteworthy for their grandiose style and construction. The Cathedral, originally a fortress, was converted to a place of worship with ample gold and stained glass.[/hider][/indent]
[color=white]𝐎𝐑𝐙𝐀𝐌𝐌𝐀𝐑[/color]
[indent][hider=An Underground City Located Beneath the Frostback Mountains][i]Following the outbreak of the First Blight, the dwarven empire was crumbling. Paragon Aeducan assumed the leadership of Orzammar and managed to push back the darkspawn. Despite his victory, it was not enough and after the end of the First Blight the darkspawn kept pushing; by -15 Ancient (1180 TE), the kingdom of Orzammar was assumed to be the last one still standing. Since then, the kingdom was in a steady decline by losing most of its outlying thaigs.[/i]

Orzammar is a great thaig and the only known remaining dwarven kingdoms in Thedas. An underground metropolis, the thaig is located deep beneath the Frostback Mountains and was once the capital of the dwarven empire. According to legend, the thaig's name derives from one of the seven brothers who founded the dwarven empire and his descendants formed the Mining caste. There they stay true to the old ways through Paragons and the Shaperate. They stick to their rigid caste system even if it seems antiquated in the current time.[/hider][/indent]
[color=white]𝐏𝐀𝐑 𝐕𝐎𝐋𝐋𝐄𝐍[/color]
[indent][hider=An Island in Northeastern Thedas Loosely Controlled by Tevinter][i]Some scholars believe that the first humans in Thedas came from the rainforests of Par Vollen many thousands of years ago, migrating south from the archipelago. The pyramids they built still stand to this day and are regarded by travelers to the region as true wonders.[/i][/hider][/indent]
[color=white]𝐑𝐈𝐕𝐀𝐈𝐍[/color]
[indent][hider=A Kingdom in Northeastern Thedas][i]-203 Ancient (992 TE) the Rivaini participated in the Battle of the Silent Plains in the southern reaches of Tevinter. Their leader Dumat was brutally stabbed and the darkspawn forces were routed. -120 to -53 Ancient (1075–1142 TE) the Rivaini rebel in an attempt to split off from the Tevinter Imperium. They were supported by the eastern cities in the Free Marches. Tevinter launched campaigns to stop the rebellion. After several losses that culminated in the disastrous Battle of Temerin in -53 Ancient (1142 TE), the Imperium finally abandoned the east. In -44 Ancient (1151 TE) the Kingdom of Rivain was founded.[/i]

The Rivaini have skin tones ranging from dark tan to ebony. Social standing in Rivain is often marked by tattoos and body piercings. The more elaborate one's decorations, the higher one's rank. This is often accompanied by extravagant jewelry. The Rivaini, though possessing a currency-based economy as other nations do, place no real value on the accumulation of individual wealth and instead promote the idea of community welfare. As such, communities work together to support each other, sending supplies to other communities when needed. Though a Circle existed in Dairsmuid, it was merely a means to appease the Chantry. The mages of the Circle were allowed to see their families and the women were specifically trained to be seers, a position in Rivaini society that is revered as a matter of tradition. These local hedge witches converse with spirits and even allow themselves to be possessed for the benefit of their villages. The Rivaini are traditionally a matriarchal people and many believe that women are best suited to ruling. Most Rivaini communities are governed by elder women, the most senior of these women being the above-mentioned seers.[/hider][/indent]
[color=white]𝐒𝐄𝐇𝐄𝐑𝐎𝐍[/color]
[indent][hider=An Island in Northern Thedas Controlled by Tevinter][i]Seheron, the largest island in Thedas, is a humid jungle nation in the Boeric Ocean, directly north of the Tevinter Imperium. The largest city is also called Seheron. It has been in the possession of the Tevinter Imperium from its earliest days, and its architecture reflects the long occupation of the Imperium.[/i][/hider][/indent]
[color=white]𝐓𝐄𝐕𝐈𝐍𝐓𝐄𝐑 𝐈𝐌𝐏𝐄𝐑𝐈𝐔𝐌[/color]
[indent][hider=A Country in Northern Thedas][i]The Tevinter Kingdom was ruled by a dynasty of kings. The first Circles of Magi formed in Tevinter cities as closed societies of mages, presumably to train and study their talents. The Tevene Circles established a council of their most talented mages, known as the Court of Magisters, which convened in Minrathous and decided the mandate of magic in the kingdom. In the current years, it abandoned Anderfels during the Second Blight. They lost Rivain, the Free Marches, Ferelden, and have only submitted to the Chantry out of a show to keep peace with Orlais. Currently, they have thrown their lot in with the King of Starkhaven to begin reclaiming their lost lands.[/i]

The Tevinter Imperium is the oldest extant human nation in Thedas and is ruled by a powerful magocracy. The leaders of the Imperium are called magisters, and are led by the Imperial Archon. In ancient times, the Imperium's power was unrivaled and its borders stretched across nearly the entire continent. In modern times, while Tevinter is a shadow of its former self in both size and power, it is still relatively powerful, and a major nation of Thedas. Tevinter society is notoriously decadent yet also takes great pride in its history and achievements. The Imperium treasures their past and preserves it, as indicated that everything they've built has been carefully preserved and renovated. Ambition and magical ability are the hallmarks of its ruling elite, the magisters. Tevinter society is highly stratified, with citizens classified into one of three levels depending on their ancestry and magical ability, the soporati, the laetans, and the altus. Slavery is also born into the backbone of their society despite being outlawed throughout most of Thedas. [/hider][/indent][/hider]

Humans are the most powerful and common of all races in Thedas. But wasn't always this way. While human history has a tendency to ignore or outright refute this, scholars believe there was a time when there wasn't a single human anywhere on the continent. While humans are the dominant race in Thedas, they are also the most fractured. The race's tribal roots led to the evolution of distinct groups with their own languages, customs, and beliefs. These distinctions have been at the heart of numerous conflicts between human nations and religious movements. Scholars wrestle to explain humanity's ability to maintain power over most of Thedas, given the infighting.

The elves are a common race in Thedas, distinguished physically by their large eyes, willowy frames, and pointy ears. Their long history is colored by ages of human oppression, and so are a mere shadow of their ancestors. The proper name for elves is [i]elvhen[/i], meaning "the people." It is said that they were once immortal beings who lived by their own rules and beliefs. When the humans arrived, they lost their immortality and so they blamed humans for their "quickening." After the fall of their kingdom, and then their subsequent relocation and exile from the Dales, they have split apart. Some became wanderers known as the Dalish while other elves have bitterly resigned to their fate living among humankind in alienages.

[hider=Elf Origins][list][*][color=white][u]𝐂𝐈𝐓𝐘[/u] - [/color] The so-called "city elves" live as second-class citizens, mostly working as servants and laborers. They live in segregated sections of cities and towns known as alienages. Bitter and downtrodden, many city elves turn to crime. These rogues only reinforce the prejudice most humans have towards city elves.

They have taken it upon themselves to preserve elven culture and lore. So when the day comes that the elves once again have a homeland, they can teach the ancient ways to their city elf brethren. Until that time the Dalish elves wander in ornately carved wagons called aravel.

[sup][color=white]𝐂𝐋𝐀𝐒𝐒𝐄𝐒[/color] - Warriors and Rogues[/sup]
The dwarves are a race of stocky, robust builders who live in underground communities called thaigs. Their once strong numbers have been diminished by ages of war with the darkspawn. Most thaigs are now empty, and the vast network of tunnels known as the Deep Roads that connected the thaigs are mostly sealed and overrun with the darkspawn, even in the absence of a Blight. The dwarves now primarily inhabit Orzammar while others live in exile on the surface. Living underground, the dwarves have superior vision in the dark. The caves they live in are laced with lyrium which has given them a natural immunity to magic. On the downside, they are also not able to wield it. Surface dwarves lose this immunity the longer they are away from the lyrium but are still unable to perform magic. Within Orzammar, they live in a rigid caste system where the casteless are marked with facial tattoos. Surface dwarves, fortunately, are able to live their life as they please.

[hider=Dwarf Origins][list][*][color=white][u]𝐃𝐔𝐒𝐓𝐄𝐑[/u] - [/color] The castless are known as dusters, after their neighborhood--Dust Town--in Orzammar. These dwarves lost their caste or are descended from those that did. They receive no protection under the law, and they are forbidden from doing any job controlled by a caste. Practically speaking, this means almost no legal work is open to them. So, many work for the Carta, a powerful organized crime syndicate that controls a virtual shadow economy. Dusters are the most likely to leave Orzammar. They have little to lose by going to the surface world since they are already casteless.

The rest of the High-Borns belong to the Warrior Caste, Smith Caste, and the Artisan Caste. The Warrior Caste is the most prestigious caste as they fight the never-ending war against the darkspawn in the Deep Roads, as well as providing rank-and-file soldiers for the noble houses. The Smith Caste is the next most important - how would the warriors fight without arms and armor? Finally, there is the Artisan Caste. They, too, are highly esteemed in dwarf society, for they are the builders and makers that make Orzammar hum.
[b][color=white]+1 Strength[/color][/b] & [b][color=white]Pick One Focus:[/color][/b][i] Dexterity (Crafting) OR Strength (Intimidation) OR Strength (Smithing)[/i][*][color=white][u]𝐋𝐎𝐖-𝐁𝐎𝐑𝐍[/u] - [/color] The dwarves of the Miner, Merchant, and Servant Castes do the hard work, day after day, that keeps Orzammar functioning. The Miner Caste is the most prestigious of these three, particularly those that deal with lyrium. The Merchant Caste is the next most important, as they bring money into the city and arrange trade deals. The Servant Caste is the lowest, though even they rank above surface dwarves and dusters. Out of these, the Merchant Caste is the only one allowed to head to the surface without having their caste status revoked as trade deals with humans and surface dwarves are well looked upon.

They play a vital role in dwarven society, but curiously other dwarves look down on them. Dwarf adventurers and wanderers also belong to this caste. It is ironic that the most famous dwarf adventurers in human lands have little standing and no prestige in their homelands.

[sup][color=white]𝐂𝐋𝐀𝐒𝐒𝐄𝐒[/color] - Warriors and Rogues[/sup]
A race relatively new to Thedas that most people call Qunari. This race is large and powerful, and they tower over humans by a foot or more on average. Most have horns growing from their heads. However, the label "Qunari"  refers to a follower of the religious text known as the Qun, regardless of his or her race--hence the capitalization of the name in many writings. The horned race's ancient name is "kossith." This term is not widely used or even widely known outside scholarly circles.

[hider=Qunari Origin][list][*][color=white][u]𝐓𝐀𝐋-𝐕𝐀𝐒𝐇𝐎𝐓𝐇[/u] - [/color] These are members that were once of the Qunari society and have rebelled against traditions of the Qun. They are known as vashoth, or "grey ones," and they must leave Qunari lands before they are detected or face reeducation or punishment. Such exiles are not considered part of the Qunari society anymore. In the spirit of defiance, they call themselves Tal-Vashoth, or "true grey ones." They live in the Anderfels and get by as they can. Many work as mercenaries, while others become raiders, pirates, smugglers, or even slavers.

[sup][color=white]GM NOTE:[/color] I am aware that the Qunari were not around in the Glory Age and would only come into prominence during the Storm Age. That being said, this is a fun and fundamental race, and I don't want anyone barred from playing it. So, I will curb the lore in a serious way to say that there is a small Tal-Vashoth colony in Northern Anderfels having escaped from Qundalon. They don't know much or anything about the Qun and do not follow the religion. That way we can have our horned cake and eat it too.[/sup][/hider]

Warriors permeate the world, but they aren't all the same. They can be ex-soldiers, caravan guards, mercenaries, members of the militia, or former blacksmiths turned adventurers. They can fight for honor, revenge, justice, money, or a better tomorrow. Some have received formal training and others fight by instinct, but all can handle themselves in a fight. They're always in the thick of combat, and it is often up to them to engage the hardest-hitting enemies so the other members of their group can focus on their own abilities. They are nigh undefeatable by those without any combat training.

[hider=Specializations][list][*][u][color=white]𝐁𝐄𝐑𝐒𝐄𝐑𝐊𝐄𝐑𝐒[/color][/u] - Warriors that first arose in the Warrior Caste of dwarves, but have since spread out. They tap into an inner bloodlust that can only be satiated by defeating their enemy, possibly their friends, or through their own death. [*][u][color=white]𝐂𝐇𝐀𝐌𝐏𝐈𝐎𝐍[/color][/u] - They do not just fight; they are a palpable presence on the battlefield. Comrades in arms look to them for strength and courage in the chaos of battle. They command with ease and have been known to become legendary through their bravery. [*][u][color=white]𝐂𝐇𝐄𝐕𝐀𝐋𝐈𝐄𝐑[/color][/u] - They are the elite knights of the Orlesian Empire. They are a powerful force, both militarily and socially. They are used to getting their way in Orlais, but can press their importance in other countries even if they're greeted frostily. Though none would deny that they are powerful warriors and unrivaled on horseback. [*][u][color=white]𝐆𝐔𝐀𝐑𝐃𝐈𝐀𝐍[/color][/u] - These warriors are trained to consider not just their position on the battlefield but that of their allies. They can assess who needs protection and when, and their timely intervention often prevents situations from going out of control. They're the immovable force to the pressure of oncoming forces. They make excellent bodyguards and are often employed as such. [*][u][color=white]𝐑𝐄𝐀𝐕𝐄𝐑[/color][/u] (Qunari Only) - They have learned to channel blood magic internally, making them terrifying and deadly warriors. The dragon blood in the Qunari allows them to tap into this naturally. The nature of the Reavers means that no heroic individuals seek to join their ranks, but desperate times can push someone to take up the role. [*][u][color=white]𝐓𝐄𝐌𝐏𝐋𝐀𝐑[/color][/u] - These warriors are the militant arm of the Chantry. Their primary function is to watch over the Circle of Magi and hunt down apostates and maleficarum. They are given small amounts of lyrium to awaken and maintain their special powers.[/list][/hider]

Rogues can be a thief, a scoundrel, a conman, a scout, an expert, or a spy. They have to get by on their quickness and cleverness. Whether engaging in witty repartee or slipping a dagger between an enemy's ribs, a rogue must be artful to win the day. They are the eyes and ears of the group. They are excellent at both and close and ranged combat, and can backstab friend or foe with ease. They're not as hardy as their warrior contemporaries, but they make up for it by being fast and deadly.

[hider=Specializations][list][*][u][color=white]𝐀𝐒𝐒𝐀𝐒𝐒𝐈𝐍[/color][/u] - Masters of the art of death, they train to kill using weapons, poisons, and their wits. The most famous of these are the Antivan Crows. There are always those willing to kill for money, so assassins can be found all over Thedas. [*][u][color=white]𝐁𝐀𝐑𝐃[/color][/u] - They may seem like simple minstrels and troubadours, but they are so much more. They can act as spies, saboteurs, and sometimes killers. Worldly people of all nations look twice at the traveling minstrels. [*][u][color=white]𝐃𝐔𝐄𝐋𝐈𝐒𝐓[/color][/u] - They rule the streets and alleys of cities like Denerim and Val Royeaux. In such conditions, the quick blades and wits of duelists count for more than raw strength. The classic duelist fights with rapier and either a main gauche or spiker buckler in their off-hand, though some pride themselves on more unusual combinations. [*][u][color=white]𝐋𝐄𝐆𝐈𝐎𝐍𝐍𝐀𝐈𝐑𝐄 𝐒𝐂𝐎𝐔𝐓[/color][/u] (Dwarves Only) - Members of the Legion of the Dead that is famed for their courage, and none more so than the Legionnaire Scout. They learn to suffer incredible hardship without the slightest complaint and hone their resolve into an armor that can protect them from pain, despair, and strife. [*][u][color=white]𝐌𝐀𝐑𝐊𝐒𝐌𝐀𝐍[/color][/u] They are crack shots that can take down enemies at a distance. They can be a Dalish archer, a Fereldan scout, a Chasind raider, or an Antivan street tough. While marksmen can handle any ranged weapon, each has a favorite type and often a signature example that they have customized to their liking. [*][u][color=white]𝐑𝐀𝐍𝐆𝐄𝐑[/color][/u] - They are skilled scouts who can use their knowledge of nature for their own benefit. They can lure animals, sometimes of frightening size, to fight for them. If the animals die in battle, that is not the rangers' concern as long as they fulfill their role in the fight. The Dalish call them cruel, but they call it practical. [*][u][color=white]𝐒𝐇𝐀𝐃𝐎𝐖[/color][/u] - These are your typical rogues that are masters of stealth. They excel in the arts of concealment and deception like no others. They can hide nearly anywhere and almost seem to be able to bend the darkness around them. They can fool opponents into attacking empty air while they position themselves for a lethal attack.[/list][/hider]

Mages have been gifted (or cursed, depending on your point of view) with the ability to absorb mana, the life force of living beings, and use it to cast magical spells. This sets them apart from normal people. In some times and places, mages have been honored for their power and wisdom. In others they have been feared and hunted, especially once the dangers of demonic possession were understood. They commonly are from the Circle of Magi, sometimes are renegade apostates, or from a culture that reveres them. They are capable of amazing feats but must be wary of demonic attacks when using powerful magic. The very gift that allows mages to use magic at all makes them vulnerable to possession.

[hider=Specializations][list][*][u][color=white]𝐅𝐎𝐑𝐂𝐄 𝐌𝐀𝐆𝐄[/color][/u]  - These mages love magic's raw power. They prefer to pummel their foes with barely restrained magical energy. Their telekinetic spells are potent and can toss enemies around like ragdolls while they remain unmovable on the battlefield. [*][u][color=white]𝐊𝐍𝐈𝐆𝐇𝐓 𝐄𝐍𝐂𝐇𝐀𝐍𝐓𝐄𝐑[/color][/u] - A select few mages who can use melee attacks by summoning a sword from thin air, which is also capable of deflecting projectiles. Other powers that put these mages a cut above the rest are the abilities to debilitate opponents, strengthen and lengthen the duration of the party's barriers, and help warriors on the front line. [*][u][color=white]𝐍𝐄𝐂𝐑𝐎𝐌𝐀𝐍𝐂𝐄𝐑[/color][/u] - These mages specialize in binding spirits drawn to the dead and dying and using them to increase their magic powers. They can cause crippling fear in opponents, summon spirits to fight for them, and can even control their enemies' spirits to fight for them. [*][u][color=white]𝐒𝐇𝐀𝐏𝐄𝐒𝐇𝐈𝐅𝐓𝐄𝐑[/color][/u] - Only a few mages practice this art of magic. None are known to become massive creatures of legend. More typically they can transform themselves into creatures like wolves, bears, and even giant spiders. [*][u][color=white]𝐒𝐏𝐈𝐑𝐈𝐓 𝐇𝐄𝐀𝐋𝐄𝐑[/color][/u] -  these are rare mages who learn to communicate and summon benevolent spirits from the Fade. There is danger in this path, as there always is when the Fade is involved. However, when the summoning is successful, a spirit healer is capable of healing feats beyond the bounds of normal magic. [*][u][color=white]𝐁𝐋𝐎𝐎𝐃 𝐌𝐀𝐆𝐄[/color][/u] (Blocked Unless Happens in IC) - Since the Grey Wardens are still a branch of the Chantry, this magic would not be allowed in their ranks.[/list][/hider]
[hider= Optional Mage Origin]If your character is a Mage, you can choose one of these two origins if you wish, but it isn't required:
[list][color=white][u]𝐂𝐈𝐑𝐂𝐋𝐄[/u] - [/color] During the Second Blight the mages proved their worth and help[ed save humanity. This allowed them to gain a measure of autonomy, and thus was born the first Circle of Magi. While there are still Chantry templars stationed in every Circle tower, it is the mages who police those with magical powers. Circle mages find humans and elves with magical talent and bring them to their towers for training and supervision, and to teach them to defend themselves against demonic possession.

Some are self-taught mages who discovered how to use magic by trial and error. Some come from magical traditions that pre-date the formation of the Circle of Magie, like hedge mages and Avvar shamans. Others are rebels, opposed to the Circle of Magi, the Chantry, or both.

[b]Journeyman:[/b] Once you’ve established a contact, you can try to get a favor with them. How hard it is based on the nature of the favor and whether it puts the contact in any danger.
[b]Master:[/b] You can turn an acquaintance into an ally with a show of loyalty. If you do a significant favor for a contact, they will treat you as a friend when you ask them for favors. They will go out of their way to help you and will be willing to put themselves in danger for you.[/hider]

During the [b][color=white]Glory Age[/color][/b], the Grey Wardens were not much diminished. Their fall would happen during the [b][color=white]Fourth Blight[/color][/b]. While the Grey Wardens were still an arm of [b][color=white]the Chantry[/color][/b], they refused to participate in the [b][color=white]Exalted March[/color][/b] against the Dales. Instead, they tended to the Blighted Lands of [b][color=white]Anderfels[/color][/b], and the [b][color=white]errant darkspawn[/color][/b] and other abominations across Thedas. 

The fortress of [b][color=white]Weisshaupt[/color][/b] that was built onto the edge of the jagged butte called Broken Tooth still stands strong and houses a couple of hundred Grey Wardens. The [b][color=white]First Warden[/color][/b] was the brother-in-arms to Corin of Tevinter, the Grey Warden that slew the Archdemon. A Tevinter Soporati himself, [b][color=white]Anodatus Kriehl[/color][/b], is quite skilled at handling the political machinations that require the Wardens to stay current and funded. Under him is the [b][color=white]High Constable, Iriah Shaewyn[/color][/b], a Dalish Ranger and friend of the griffons. There's also the [b][color=white]Chamberlain of the Grey[/color][/b], an ex-Shaper of Orzammar [b][color=white]Mirav Helsheld[/color][/b]. And while there are a handful of [b][color=white]Warden Commanders[/color][/b], the one overseeing our Wardens is a Free Marcher and Tourney winner, [b][color=white]Soren Granheimen[/color][/b].

You're either a [b][color=white]Warden[/color][/b] yourself, this having been between your first to third mission. Or you're a [b][color=white]Warden Recruit[/color][/b], not having taken part in the [b][color=white]Joining[/color][/b] as of yet, but still either a volunteer or conscripted. One amongst you is a [b][color=white]Senior Warden[/color][/b], that has been tasked to lead without much knowledge about it. The odd thing about these orders you have received is that you've been pulled apart from your usual traveling companions. Recruits are no longer with their Senior Wardens, and Acolytes are no longer being watched over by the templar volunteers. Instead, you've been thrown in with a hodgepodge of other Wardens on this journey, and a [b][color=white]templar[/color][/b] from the Starkhaven Chantry you've never met.

You've been [b][color=white]traveling together for a week or so[/color][/b] now when you come across the Free Marches town of [b][color=white]Saltgraves[/color][/b]. A small farming town in the Northern Reaches close to the Tevinter border. There are a few smoldering campfires outside the parameter of the town, but the gray overhang of trees and the dismal weather hide any living presence. You swear, the true Wardens among you, you sense the presence of [b][color=white]darkspawn[/color][/b]. But you feel as if [b][color=white]something else dwells[/color][/b] here as well.[/color][/indent][/indent][/indent][/indent][/indent]
