I do not own Dragon Age, Dragonriders of Pern or Stargate: SG1 and I make no profit of playing around with them.

Mages of Pern Verse - Crossover Stargate SG1 Version 1 Part 2
Jowan had somehow ended up as the diplomatic party to Stargate Command, which both baffled and annoyed him. He was a Blood Mage; he was good at killing things not negotiating with potential allies. Well sure he could be good at 'negotiating' but he didn't like that sort of magic and potential long-time allies didn't normally take will to finding out they had had their minds fiddled with by Blood Magic.
Surana had been their first choice, a female elven mage to test their prejudices and a Grey Warden for respect and experience. Unfortunately the Pernese on the whole held blood as sacred and the Wardens were very paranoid about theirs, admittedly for good reason. She'd raised a huge fuss and refused to give her blood to the base doctor and upon being told that it was a requirement she had demanded to be sent back, telling them that if they needed blood, well then people could deal and find someone else to do this.
Mouse had been seriously considered but it was eventually decided that sending a Spirit might be pushing it too far. Jowan had eventually been decided upon to go by dint of the fact that as a blood-mage he had much better control of what happened to his blood after it left his body and as powerful mage trusted by Anders he would have a good chance at fighting his way out if everything went wrong. As a human like their guests appeared to be he shouldn't seem too strange to them and as a male, because it did seem like males were mostly in-charge among their guests, he should be taken seriously.
