Summary
She has too many names, and none of them are hers.
When the South's Divine calls for a Conclave between the Templars and the Mages, spies are sent from groups across Thedas to witness the event. Tevinter is no different. So she goes, her blood a simple spell component for the Magister who owns her.
Then the world exploded.
Her master is dead. Those chains are broken. But new ones tie her to the Breach in the sky, which only this strange mark can close. Now she takes on a new name: the Herald. And still she claws her way to freedom despite the Inquisition that relies on her for so much. Despite the pain that dictates just what her body is capable of each day.
Amidst the suffering, the death, and the trauma, she must carve an identity for herself. But is it necessary for a hero to lose their own identity for the good of the world, or is freedom still possible within the shackles of a title?

Summary
Forced to attend the Conclave being held at the Temple of Sacred Ashes, Ember Trevelyan is doing her best to get out of the situation when a magical explosion changes everything. With no memory of the event that leveled a mountain, or how she survived it, she's suddenly stuck with the responsibility of killing demons, closing rifts, and gathering allies to a cause she wants no part of. Everything in her tells her to run away, but as the only one that can help seal the Breach in the sky, she finds herself with an odd array of people trying to fix what's been broken - including Commander Cullen, a man she can't seem to keep herself away from, as much as she'd like to.

Summary
His voice was hoarse, vowels stretching in a way that was obviously Ferelden but not noble, though he held himself like one. Shoulders back, jaw set. A proud man, with too much to prove and not much time to do it. A gust of wind swept ash towards them, catching in his hair, and Maeve’s nostrils flared at the sudden and unmistakable scent of lyrium.
Templar.
She raised her chin a fraction, almost defiantly. If only her soft scholar fingers and Chantry veil did not give her away as a Circle mage and nothing more.
(or, the inquisition from the perspective of maeve trevelyan)

Summary
Cullen Rutherford's worst enemy and greatest asset is his own mind. Addicted to lyrium and dangerously, stupidly in love with the Herald of Andraste, it has sometimes tortured him, but it has always gotten him through. Until now. Haven is on fire, a demigod is stalking them, the Inquisition's war is about to kick off, and all he has to keep himself sane is a beat up old journal.

Summary
Supplemental and/or rewritten Astarion and Dark Urge (Bianca) scenes that I wish existed because I love them and their fucked up, parallel journey to recovery and self-discovery. Fic starts in Act 1 with the Alfira debacle.
He raises an eyebrow. “Are you afraid of me?” He’s not sure why, but the thought stings. He just helped her hide a body. If anyone should be wary, it should be him.
“No.” A blush spreads across Bianca’s face, neck, and chest. “This just feels…” she shrugs and gestures up to his shirtless chest, her shirtless chest, and then in a wide circle between them, “intimate. We had more clothes last time.”
Astarion smirks. This is familiar territory. “Come now,” he coos, “With everything we’ve shared, there’s no need to be shy.”
Featuring: angst, saucy vampire bites, violence, crimes, intrusive thoughts, healing, revenge, and more.
***
PS: Bianca is an anxious mess. She is appropriately confused, nervous, and concerned about her missing memory and desire to murder.

Summary
Slow burn Cullen/Lavellan with multiple 'subromances' in a world exploration fan novel, including Krem getting involved with Cullen's baby sister.
"“Zevran, you were supposed to bring me and then leave.” Neria sighed in mild annoyance. But Leliana had a telltale smile on her lips. Her hand drumming next to another empty glass. She’d known full well that Zevran wouldn’t leave Neria unattended here - it was simply out of character for him to leave Neria’s side without reason. Pouring him a glass as the Warden fussed. “How long have you been hiding?”
“Since I was a boy!” Laughing, pleased at his own jest as he strode forward. “But if you mean in that particular spot, I never actually left.”
“Are there any others hiding up here?” Ellana’s head turned in amusement though in her pain, she was rather tempted to toss balls of light into the shadows.
“Not at all. I made sure of it. That is why I stayed. Among other reasons.” A devilish sparkle in the Elf’s eyes as he rounded the corner of the table and made a bow before Ellana. “You must be the Inquisitor. Zevran Arainai, formerly of the Antivan Crows and at your service.”"Series
