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.

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
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
At the height of the Inquisition’s rise to power, Alec Trevelyan made a choice that solidified his position as a Defender of the Faith - and his position as no friend to mages.
Hawke, the victim of that choice, has spent the intervening years consolidating the city of Kirkwall as a haven for those who do not wish to submit again to the Templar Order. His detractors accuse him of emulating the Imperium, his supporters point to the city flourishing for the first time in decades. The Chantry gnashes its teeth and threatens an Exalted March, when there is no appetite for another war.
Then a letter comes from Ferelden - an invitation, and the promise of protection, for Hawke to attend the Exalted Council, forming to strip the Inquisition of its power. It might be a trap, it might be entirely inadvisable, but it’s the moment Hawke’s been waiting for - if he can bring himself to face the Inquisitor again.

Summary
Hawke swallowed.
And if I make a deal? Will you help stop Meredith?
Laughter filled his head, a sound that sent electricity crackling down his spine. Maker, what was he doing?
I will do so much more than that, Champion.
Knight-Commander Meredith almost won the Battle of Kirkwall - and would have done so, if a desperate, broken Hawke hadn’t resorted to blood magic and a pact with a pride demon.
Crossing that line won the day, but Hawke lost everything. Hounded by Templars and friends alike, he retreated to the Wounded Coast as a wanted man. There, alone and hurting, he tried to resist the call of the demon inside him.
But it already had him in its web, and it is only a matter of time before the Champion of Kirkwall is something else entirely.

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.
