Tatiana
She/her, born 10 Haring 33 Dragon. Elf, mage, former Tevinter slave. Meets Fanari a year or so after the events of Trespasser and leads the slave rebellion that finally ends slavery in Tevinter. Twelve years old at the time of her plot.
Cassidy Amell
She/her, born 20 Bloomingtide 04 Dragon. Partner: Sebastian, Children: Carwyn, Brigid. Raised at the Amell estate in Kirkwall, Cassidy and her parents were in Starkhaven when her magic manifested. Her parents lied to the family, saying she stayed behind with a friend, leading Caedan's own manifestation of magic to be what triggered the ruination of the Amell family. Back in Starkhaven, Cassidy learned healing to be allowed to leave the Circle during the day and work at the Chantry. There she met Sebastian, becoming friends with him and pushing him to claim his birthright after his family's assassination. Cassidy remains a staunch believer in the Chantry's control of mages, despite owing her freedom and title of Princess Consort to Divine Victoria disbanding the Circles.
Yasmin Cadash
She/her, born 89 Blessed. Partner: Ardashir, Children: Firuz, Hafez, Mehr, Bahram, Roshan, Nahid, Hasan, Aida, Gulshan, Nalaiyah, Jalil, Khurshid. It's a shame the family left Orzammar, really. Otherwise Yasmin and Arashir would have been made paragons of fertility. Formerly part of Orzammar's Smith caste, Yasmin raised the family while Ardashir worked the forge for King Endrin. Yasmin made ties with the Carta as a way to make ends meet when the royal sallery wasn't enough to keep up with their growing family. The family fled to the surface during the political unrest following King Endrin's death. One of Yasmin's contacts within the Carta put her in touch with the Cadashes of Ostwick, where they found a new and better home.
Carver Hawke
He's mine now. Part of both the templar order and mage underground in Kirkwall, Carver remained behind when his siblings fled the city. Cassandra took him along with Varric to the Conclave where Carver became Commander of the Inquisition after its formation. He assisted Leliana in creating a cipher for Inquisition based on Welsh, the Amell family's ancestral language. Returned to Kirkwall with Varric after the Inquisition disolved.
Micah Mac Eanraig
No pronouns, born 08 Dragon. Raised by Grandpa Mac Eanraig on his raiding fleet. Micah took over after Fearchar's retirement in the years after the blight. At the top of "Pirates Wanted Dead or Alive" lists across most of Thedas, Micah never touches a Ferelden vessel during raids. Captain of the "Queen's Heart".
Xiomara Nero
They/she/he, born sometime in the 80s of the Blessed Age. Elven Guildmaster of House Nero, Xiomara joined the Antivan Crows when a Crow witnessed them kill another child over some meat. As a full-fledged member of the guild, Xiomara made herself notorious through taking as many contracts as he could, and being the one called in when a trainee or captive refused to break. It is rumored that Xiomara killed the prior Guildmaster, though no proof exists. Xiomara's eyes are set on where they've been since they joined the Crows: on becoming House Nero's Talon.
Rhodri Powell
She/her, born 05 Dragon. A half elf originally from Starkhaven's alienage. Boasting little magic skill and less confidence, Rhodri found herself drawn to Cassidy like a beacon and became an unwitting pawn. Where Rhodri saw Cassidy as someone who could do no wrong, she was found by Cassidy to be someone to use. Any praise of Cassidy's deeds or person brought to the attention of Chantry heads most likely came from Rhodri. When Starkhaven's Circle burned down, Rhodri went with the majority of mages to Kirkwall while Cassidy remained in Starkhaven. She was killed by a templar in Meredith's final months of power leading up to the rebellion.
Amara Surana
She/her, born 18 Kingsway 02 Dragon. Despises her first name and makes sure to never use it. Surana's earliest memories are of the Chantry orphanage she was raised in until her magic manifested. She was made a senior enchanter a few scant weeks after passing her Harrowing due to her talent, cool head, and being one of the few mages to survive Uldred's attempted coup. Some years after the Blight she was trasferred from Kinloch Hold to the White Spire where she remained until following the Grand Enchanter to Skyhold. Fun fact she doesn't know about herself: she was born in Ferelden's Circle.
Vanessa "Skinner" Tabris
She/her, born 04 August 06 Dragon. Nessa to friends, Ness to family. Vanessa fled Denerim after slaying Vaughn and his men. She met Donnovan, later Stitches, three days into her flight. After convincing him to remove her shackles, they were attacked by a hurlock. The pair fled Ferelden together and took up mercenary work after entering Orlais. By the time they joined the Bull's Chargers Donnovan had already given her the moniker Skinner, as she never told him her name.
Vidi
She/her, born early 90s Blessed. Part of the Antaam. Vidi's nickname comes from most Qunari assuming she's Viddathari, despite having been born on and in fact never leaving Par Vollen until she was well into her forties. A childhood friend of the current Arishok, who traveled with the Warden as a Sten.
