    Summary

    When the Fifth Blight hits Ferelden and Emmaline Hawke's family flees north to Kirkwall, the high tensions between templars and mages continuously complicates her life. In a last-ditch effort to protect her sister, she sets out to join an expedition into the Deep Roads for untold riches - which means working beside the Grey Warden Anders, a man who happens to be a mage with an intense need to see justice done for his people. Over the years, their friendship has potential to grow into more…but it's hard for love to bloom between a mage driven by vengeance and a rogue with ghostly regrets over those she couldn't save.

    Summary

    It’s one thing to see a dragon from the 10 by 12 inch screen of her laptop, it’s quite another to see it directly above her – a barely comprehensible mass of gleaming scales of deep maroon, hard edges and slick boney wings that seem to block out all light. We’re going to die. We’re going to die at the hands of an actual dragon. That’s something that’s going to happen.

    -----
    A gathering of old friends goes terribly wrong as messing with unknown mods (and magics) leads to the four becoming trapped at the start of Dragon Age: Inquisition. As they navigate risk, romance, and a reality that isn't always quite what they expect, they'll need to rely on themselves and each other if they ever stand a chance at going home again.

    An ensemble cast rom-com about friendship, love, and trying not to be killed by a decade-old rpg. Updates Mondays.

    Summary

    Eighteen months ago, Bryn Cousland crawled out of the burning wreckage of her home and into the Blight, without a Grey Warden there to catch her. Now the Blight is over, the Grey Wardens are rebuilding their order in Ferelden, and Bryn wants to be a hero. What better way than to present herself at Vigil's Keep as a recruit?

    And then the Hero of Ferelden conscripts the son of her family's murderer, and Bryn realises that she probably made a mistake.

    (Mostly canon-compliant to Awakening, but with a lot of original content.)

    Summary

    Carlo was brought to the world of Thedas - trapped in a forest and found by a Dalish clan. Unable to get home with suspicion cast upon him by many others, he finds he has little to do other than survive. However, he learns that he had been brought to Thedas several weeks before the events of the Conclave: weeks before the events of Inquisition take place.

    With the knowledge that he holds, he can either roll along and play things safe, or use what he knows to change things for the better. However, things are much easier said than done - especially in a world like Thedas.

    Summary

    In Kirkwall’s warren of alleys and darkened stone, violence is a language more common than the Trade tongue. Katica Basri, a Crow-trained assassin bound to a spirit she cannot always control, is drawn into the tangled lives of Hawke and his companions: outcasts, fugitives, and those who have lost more than they can name.

    But it’s Fenris— a fellow survivor shaped by cruelty and loss— whose presence cuts closest. Together they must navigate trauma, both shared and solitary, learning to trust each other in a city where trust is always dangerous and kindness comes with a price.

    As the city ignites, with templars and mages circling, debts resurfacing, and trust growing thin, every secret becomes a weapon. In Kirkwall, survival means choosing sides, even when the line between ally and enemy is always shifting.

    Summary

    “You really need to work on—this,” Hawke says, circling a wide gesture about Dorian’s entire self.

    “Beg pardon?” Dorian says. “The man who’s covered in blood from head to toe is going to criticize my aesthetic?”
    *
    At a breaking point with his expected path in life, a young Dorian Pavus embarks on a rebellious journey to escape his family’s disappointment by drinking his way across Thedas.

    But when things go awry, Dorian finds himself stranded in the grimy streets of Kirkwall—a place where his magical talent, far from the advantage it’s always been, is suddenly a glaring liability.

    Things are looking pretty bleak. Until Dorian runs into a charming apostate named Garrett Hawke.

    Summary

    ‘I could bear it,’ he rasped.
    ‘Could you?’
    He shook his head, looking down at his markings.‘You didn’t have to do it. It’s useless. How much will I get from it? Hours? Minutes?’
    ‘Fenris,’ Hawke whispered. ‘We’re going to fix it.’
    He lifted his gaze, searching her face fo an answer before he dared to ask, ‘At what cost?’
    At any cost, she thought.

    Summary

    What was Kirkwall going to do with five Hawke siblings roaming the city? Two had been bad enough, but no, this time it was five. Aryia, Garrett, Carver, Bethany and Sarai had all made it to Kirkwall with their mother and mabrai, and now were clawing their way out of the dirt to give their family a better life. Will they manage it successfully, or will the family fall apart to old and new wounds?

    (Basically I picked all my Hawkes. Mage, Warrior and Rogue, and Purple, Blue and Red. Why choose one when you can have all playthroughs?)

    Summary

    Everyone knows the story of the Champion of Kirkwall - Aedan Cousland, who fled the massacre of his family by Rendon Howe and settled himself in the city during the Blight. Who pulled himself up from friendless refugee to noble, to hero. A family man, dedicated to the Chantry, who killed the Arishok and tried to keep the peace in the subsequent years as tension threatened to pull the city apart.

    But fewer people have heard the story of the Protector of Lowtown. Another Ferelden refugee, in the shadow of Cousland, who risked his life and freedom to stand before the Qunari during their invasion, who worked with the Mage Underground to protect innocents caught in Meredith’s growing paranoia and tyranny.

    Their paths crossed, many times. But as Cousland’s star rose, Hawke’s did not. And when Anders attacked the Chantry, they found themselves on opposite sides. What happened then, changed the course of history.

    Summary

    Garrett Hawke would have done anything to keep his sister and mother safe upon reaching Kirkwall. He’d failed Carver, and that guilt haunted him every night when he dreamed, the ogre crushing his brother’s chest like so much wet parchment.

    So when their Uncle had revealed that not only was the family destitute, the estate long lost, and that their only way into the city was through indentured servitude? He’d have taken anything that kept Bethany away from the Templars.

    But of the options Gamlen had managed to orchestrate, he’d clearly assumed Bethany would be the one who’d take up a position at the Blooming Rose.

    An AU where Hawke spends his first year at the Rose, and sleeps with everyone he knows - even after the year is up.

    Summary

    “Shit, you look young.”

    “We’re nineteen next month,” Bethany said, letting go of Garrett’s hand. “And we can fight. We came all the way from Lothering, through the darkspawn.”

    The elf raised an eyebrow, then looked at him.

    “Can you talk, or does your sister not let you get a word in edgeways?”

    Garrett Hawke was never meant to be the eldest son, the one responsible for keeping his family safe. That was Carver - until it suddenly wasn’t.

    AU where Garrett and Bethany are the twins, and Carver dies fleeing Lothering, forcing a much younger, much more naive Garrett to step up and try to be the hero Kirkwall needs, with very mixed results.

    Summary

    “Maker’s breath, Hawke, what are you doing here?”

    In Ferelden, Hawke helped save the world from the Blight. In Kirkwall, he is an apostate struggling to hide.

    He crossed the Waking Sea to be with his family, the guilt of abandoning them in Lothering a stronger driver than fear of the Templars. But Hawke hadn’t reckoned on old friends and enemies in the city, hadn’t been prepared for the way his name would spread. All too soon, he is more a liability than an asset when it comes to keeping his family safe.

    The Deep Roads expedition might be enough to protect his family, the money offering more security than Hawke’s presence. If he can survive those bloody tunnels for a second time. If he can keep out of Templar hands.

    Summary

    Roan Caldar figured he'd seen it all. After the Oblivion Crisis, what else could possibly surprise him? Turns out, a trip to the Shivering Isles can still throw a curveball—like waking up in the middle of Kirkwall’s undercity with no idea how he got there and a very determined Fereldan refugee refusing to leave him alone.

    Looks like the Hero of Kvatch has one more wild adventure ahead of him… whether he wanted it or not.

    Summary

    Hawke accidentally spends more than she meant to on a sword...and Gamlen is *not* happy about it. Or about how long it's taking her to raise the money for the expedition. Or how long it's taking her, Bethany, and Leandra to leave his home.

    Varric isn't taking that lying down.

    Or at all.
