Summary
Great figures arise from crucibles of cruel design. When the Blight forces long-disgraced Leandra Amell and her children to emigrate back to Kirkwall, her eldest paves their future with mayhem and reports of apostate behaviors amongst the mercenary circles. Someone that unhinged would crawl under Bartrand’s skin and was precisely the type of person Varric intended to use. Or, at least, that was the plan.
Updated monthly.

Summary
Syn, a mage working as a mercenary gets badly injuried on her last mission, thankfully she was already in darktown, where she had heard rumors that there was a healer that pretty much worked for free, so of course she'd try to find him, after all, she was bleeding and in need.
She was never expecting to find such a beautiful sight, and she was never expecting to try and get on his good graces. -

The Reign by warpedlegacy (BECandCall)

Summary
The Chantry has told many lies. Theresa Trevelyan is merely one of them. They called her a heretic first, then a savior, then a prophet. She rejects the myth they've made of her life and her suffering. But more than this, she resents their erasure of the truth behind her rise to power. You think you know the story of the Herald of Andraste? Now you will hear the truth. With a little help from Thedas's favorite serial author, of course.
This is Part Two of my Reprises and Reprisals series, but I have done my best to make it accessible if you'd rather start here instead. Part One covers the game's beginning up through In Your Heart Shall Burn. Part Two is intended to cover early Skyhold up through the end of the base game (DLC and Trespasser to come in Part Three).

Summary
These days, she was the only thing in recent history that made any sense to him after the absolute madness he’d witnessed. These days, he found himself humbled and maybe a little selfish. She was the Inquisitor. There were plenty of other suitors, younger suitors, less problematic suitors, and she chose Varric every time, over and over. He’d learned to stop questioning it, at least. It only took a few threats and a well-aimed bolt of electricity at his bare asscheek on the way out of bed one morning in order to get him to stop asking her ‘why me?’ when she told him she loved him.
Varric found he much preferred whispering a quiet ‘thank you’ to Andraste into silver hair while Aurelia slept beside him.
The (unembellished) tale of Aurelia & Varric.

Summary
An AU based on the American and French Revolutions and a late 18th Century aesthetic. FemHawke/Anders is the main ship, but all listed ones are important.
When Ferelden won its independence, rebuilding took an unexpected turn. Maric truly didn’t want to be king, so he urged the people to vote for General Loghain Mac Tir to lead a Republic. Now, as Ferelden faces a Blight, most of Thedas expects its radical experiment to fail against that threat. Ferelden faces attacks from both the outside and, unfortunately, the inside.
Meanwhile, in Kirkwall, nobles and the Chantry still oppress the people. But a group of would-be rebels have taken inspiration from Ferelden. They include a physician/apothecary who writes radical pamphlets and is secretly a mage, a fierce elven scholar trying to raise the Alienage, the son of a viscount killed by the Templars, and others. Maric, his elven wife, and their son travel there to help.
The three Hawke siblings join the fight, finding purpose, friendship, and love. But it soon becomes clear that the Revolution faces profound challenges....

Summary
He waited a week. Then another. Then after his training on Sunday but before dinner, he was summoned to the mage library on one of the higher floors. He walked alone, picking at his fingernails and holding his poor-boy books under his arm. He felt like a toddler walking between those forests of tomes. He felt stupid because he couldn’t read half of them.
