It was a fierce fight, neither side giving much ground as their blades clashed against shield, arrows whistled overhead, and the bright glow of magical attacks blast into either sides ranks. It wasn’t until a group of Magisters and mages entered the battlefield that the tides turned, the Orlesian Fereldan alliance found themselves being attacked by demons ravaging their ranks, huge magical explosions created fountains of fire and ice that send soldiers flying through the air.
Ser Hart stumbled to his feet groaning and rubbing his head where a piece of rock had cut his skin open. With part of his face covered in blood he turned to observe the battlefield around him smoke wafted from the ground as the forms of unnatural creatures swarmed into ranks of soldiers from all walks of life fighting valiantly for their lands. The forms of Tevinter Magisters and mages could be seen as they walked slowly through broken bodies their staffs lashing out with the elements sending men and women into the mud. Ser Hart reached out and grabbed the nearest soldier and found himself holding a scout by the name of ‘Grub.’ “Grub go to Captain Captain Allaban, tell him what has happened here! Tell him we are losing ground! Tell him to send word to Commander Cullen that the Imperium is breaking through!”
*a hastily written letter*
Commander Cullen things are becoming a disaster on the front the Magisters ravage our forces with superior magic and demons. We need help immediately something needs to be done! Ground is being lost, though we are being pushed back slowly I fear morale cannot hold on forever.
Captain, Allaban
It has been years since the events of the Inquisition fighting the Venatori, and peace prospered for nine of them. Upon that nineth year though, a sudden attack took place against Skyhold, in the dark of night hundreds of pilgrims revealed themselves to be mages of the Tevinter Imperium, a Magister leading them as they unleashed hundreds of demons into the Hold. It wasn’t long before the gates were wide open and forces of the Imperium that lay in wait rushed in attacking anyone they could. Once more though the Inquisitor lead a attack against forces seeking to crush his people in order for them to flee through secret passages. Since then the Inquisitor has not been heard of.
And so the war began, first it was simply Orlais and Tevinter fighting along the Western Front, but as the Orlesian forces were pushed back Empress Celene sent word to Ferelden asking for help against the Tevinter forces. It didn’t take long in Denerim as the nobles got together, King Alistair declared that they would send forces to Orlais to aid them in their fight. For a year now the armies have slugged it out in the sand and dust, neither side never truly gaining any ground, until now. The Tevinter Imperium has found a new way to unleash demons some of the mages even merging their own bodies in a symbiotic relationship as to unleash new havocs upon the world of the living. The Tevinter Imperium answers to a new leader who has unleashed this blood magic to gain more power and press back the Orlesian, Ferelden forces.
It came as further surprise when King Bhelen drunk with wanting more power and to extend his strength into the surface allied the Dwarves with Tevinter in order to take back their Thaigs with the help of the demons. The deadlock is slowly fading as it seems like the Tevinter Dwarven alliance will crush the Fereldens. So Cullen having escaped the massacre at Skyhold has become a Commander of the Ferelden Orlesian forces has decided to create a group dedicated to eradicating the Magisters and Mages which lead the Tevinter forces in battle. He calls them The Order of Silence, for their active endeavor to silence Tevinter magic.
To sum things up players will be taking the roles of characters who are part of ‘The Order of Silence’ who seek out to slay magica leaders among the Tevinter forces in a effort to send the Tevinter army into disarray. The Tevinter forces for reasons unknown seem bent on taking the Western Approach under the authority of a new leader named The Lord Magister. This will be a radical approach to the world of Dragon Age where players will explore beyond Thedas having to sneak into Tevinter cities, and enemy army camps.

Tevinter Agent. I will allow one person to be a Tevinter agent hiding amongst the players, though this part of your history will have to be kept out of the main character application.
