"Seeing values beyond what is possible. 'Tis the nature of a hero. It kills him, of course, ultimately. Remember that, my Love, heroes don't get anything but dead… in life, the monsters always win." Soren Amell had never intended to be a hero. He was just another piece of street rat trash raised in the gutters of Kirkwall and, frankly, perfectly content to stay there.

Elgar'nan does not believe in imperfection, so Mythal hides her beautiful daughter. She is the goddesses best kept secret and she is no longer safe with the All-Mother. To keep her safe, she sends the woman into the Dread Wolf's care. This is the beginning of a tale of friendship and more, so much more. Rated M for themes and suggestions.

Alistair shook his head. "He just lies and lies, and everyone knows he's lying. The arlessa isn't pleased, and I know I've gone and ruined everything, but it isn't my fault!" One-shots set across Thedas in the lives of several characters. Series Part Four, feat. Alistair, F!Brosca, Varric, F!Hawke, Cassandra, Cullen, F!Tabris, Fenris, and F!Cousland. AU Elements. T for safety.

The Hero of Ferelden reluctantly attends the Champion of Kirkwall's banquet on King's business. Warden Aedan Cousland is tasked with recruiting Champion Marian Hawke to be part of Ferelden's budding spy network. Things don't go exactly as planned. (Updated last chapter! Changed a few things for more closure.) Pairings: Warden Cousland/Hawke, Hawke/Fenris, Warden/Morrigan

Soren Surana remembers life in the Ferelden Circle as a constant, dangerous dance between Mages and Templars set to Andraste's Chant: a dance he knew well. Jylan Ansera, poor thing, danced so badly his feet, and magic, were cut off. So what if they're both elves? Boo-hoo. Magic was the equalizing force in their lives. One seized his chance and became a hero. The other? Who cares.

The witch is sitting in the kitchen. With Hawke. — templar!au coda; Fenris/Merrill, f!Hawke.

Valeria Morn, Inquisitor-Captain of the Karelist Inquisition is a loyal servant of Church and Crown, a hunter of their enemies. But when a spell gone awry sends her to Thedas, she's left adrift in an unknown land, with a strange mark on her hand, a hole in reality and a stunning, dark-haired Seeker she can't stop thinking about - and with no idea what to do about any of it.

From the hills of the Redcliffe, a young farmboy turned Grey Warden will endeavor to save his homeland from destruction. With the aid of his fellow Grey Wardens from a variety of backgrounds and brave souls from around the country, Arnor Edain will have to fight darkspawn, abominations, and the clashing personalities of his comrades to end the Fifth Blight. Human Commoner Origin AU

Loghain wasn't always arrogant and unyielding.

DA2. Update: Entire story has been updated and improved. Novelization of a rogue play through with new twists, Varric-like embellishments, and rich description. FemHawkexFenris. Rated M for adult content, gore, substance use, and harsh language. Not strict to storyline, and I promise you'll love it. :)

Shartan was once the soulmate and high priest of Mother Halla, he has found her over many life times in nearly every life she has had. now his heart is hardened can the seeker of truth who hides her emotions get him to open?

Cassandra waits for her love to return from his final battle. but when the party returns they come bearing news she wishes she never had to hear.

"Here we are, a new little family. I wonder if this is what my parents felt like when I was born." A f!Hawke/Anders parenthood AU.

An utterly silly piece written for the DA reddit writing prompt. A direct sequel to "On the Right Foot". Bull has failed to get Adaar to loosen up so he tag teams Varric. As he gets Adaar to let her guard down, Varric begins to wish he could take back his words. An uptight Qunari letting loose is worse in so many ways. What ever we were before we are now the Inqu-chicken.

Hawke is sick and Sebastian takes care of her.

AU, No Wardens, No Blight, Vaughn is still a horny jackass though. Aedan Cousland saves an elf from being executed and gets more than he anticipated. Complete. Finally.

Damien never amounted to much. He stole to survive, travelling the back alleys and side streets of Fereldan, staying alive by whatever means. When a food run turns into a fight for his life, his abilities are noticed by the Grey Wardens and Damien's entire life is turned upside down. I don't own DA. Rated T for graphic violence, trauma, torture, and language. I don't own cover pic.

Cullen and Cassandra both have reasons for spurning romance. But love has other plans.

Lady Bethany Hawke comes to Denerim's court. It's—well. It's something. — Alistair/Bethany, others.

Isabela is as elusive as this story's title. Doesn't mean Hawke won't try to chase after her...

when leandra dies, hawke considers demonic help to exact her revenge but... over Fenris' dead body. (rivalmance)

Merrill isn't yet accustomed to life on the open ocean. Fenris/Isabela/Merrill.

Cullen Rutherford: a former Templar trying to forget his past as he builds a future for the Inquisition as their Commander. Kala Sabrae: a Dalish mage blessed by the Creators. Can they rebuild the Inquisition to a higher standard than it once was, or will their differences and pasts be enough to tear them apart? Some mature content will be present.

Dorians Blick verfinsterte sich, als sich Blackwall ausgerechnet ihm gegenüber setzte. Es gab ausreichend andere freie Plätze im Herolds Rast.

Two dwarves, two elves, four humans, and a dog walk into a tavern in Lothering. Things quickly deteriorate from there.
