[CHAR] A Dragon's Roar: Beyond the Blood, Beyond the Blight

[Genkai]

Genkai's Characters:

Name: Wystellia

Age: 27

Race: (City) Elf

Specialty: Mage, Spirit Healer

Origin:

Wystellia grew up in the Alienage inside Denerim's marketplace. She lived with both of her parents where they scraped by, selling handmade leather goods. Sales were slow and her mother, Mela, had to sell herself to some of the outsiders who came in during the night. For the most part though, Wystellia considered her upbringing to be blessed when she compared herself to her friends and neighbors. A bond was formed among the elves and when she showed signs of being a mage, it tore her in two because she knew she'd have to leave them behind, but it also meant she'd be able to get away and see more of the world and its offerings. At the age of 9, she was whisked away to the Circle and it was there she was taught the basic skills of magic.

What struck her most, was the order of everything. Unlike some around her, she respected and understood the role of a Templar. She even admired their risks and tough line of work. Her kindness was toughened however, as she grew up seeing things as black and white, without little room for seeing things differently than two possible ways. This narrow mindedness made conflicts difficult for her but even so, she was able to form good friendships in the Circle and live a happy life. After many years of study and training, Duncan visited when she was 18, and knew her healing prowess would be useful in the fight to come. He offered her a chance to see the world and fight for those in it. Since her thirst for adventure had yet been quenched, and she had a will to defend the innocent, she accepted and became a Grey Warden after surviving The Joining. Since then, she's been a Grey Warden, traveling wherever needed to slay darkspawn and alert people to the coming Blight.

After being summoned to Ostagar, she was happy to see more of her comrades, as the last few assignments had left her previous ranks feeling rather thin.

[Drunken Conquistador]

Name: Julien Hannadir

Age: 33

Specialty: Rogue, Duelist

Origin: Julien is the third son of Dannard Hannadir, a minor nobleman of the city of Ostwick in the Free Marches. The future Grey Warden had a happy childhood, enjoying the privileges that came with having a "Name" and some wealth. Nevertheless, despite his good life the young Julien always yearned to travel and see the world. A yearning that only grew stronger once he realized that as a third son of a minor noble he would have to make his own fortune and name. And that was what Julien did as soon as he came of age. Turning his dueling hobby into a profession the youngest Hannadir earned a reputation by travelling around the Free Marches as a wandering duelist, joining tourneys, guarding caravans, teaching young nobles and even getting conscripted once, in Kirkwall to fight against pirates.

Never staying in one place for too long or creating lasting ties, Julien preferred the life on the road and was preparing to travel for a tourney in Orlais when news reached that his father was deathly ill. Abandoning the travel plans, Julien rushed back to Ostwick. Arriving in time to say his last goodbyes to his father and catch up with his brothers. As expected, he was almost completely left out of his father's will, earning only a small stipend and some small family heirlooms. Not that it bothered him much as he had long since accepted the reality of the situation. After all, the notion that he could not rely on an inheritance was what spurned him on to spend the last decade wandering around the Free Marches. And so departed once again, refusing his brothers' offers to stay with them but parting on good terms.

It was back on the road, a few weeks after leaving Ostwick together with a caravan that Julien had his first contact with the Darkspawn and met the Grey Wardens for the first time. The ensuing battle was fierce and bloody. The caravan guards were outnumbered but managed to hold on long enough for the Grey Wardens tracking that particular band to arrive and save the caravan. Impressed by the fighting prowess of the Wardens and now suddenly aware of the threat posed by the Darkspawn, Julien decided to volunteer for the Order. Managing to survive the Joining and serve with some distinction.

Five years later he was transferred from the Marches to Vigil's Keep in Ferelden, just in time to join the army mustered by King Cailan and head south to Ostagar.
