Summary
Modern AU: Events of Dragon Age II and Dragon Age Inquisition, without Corypheus around.
When Solas woke up, he was dead-set to go along with his plan. Particularly after three Dalish clans told him off, and he settled in Kirkwall, only to discover that the city was caught in a political war about whether to reinstall a Circle of Magi, after centuries since the Chantry declared them abolished.
Everything changed when he took pity on two stranded children, and decided to get his plan on pause. An orb in the back of his office, an annoying dwarf mocking him in his house, he postponed everything until Aisling and Dorian would be grown up and had lived a long life.Things won't probably go according to plan.

Summary
After disassembling the Arishok in front of the gathered Kirkwall nobility, Marian Hawke gets dragged off to the Circle of Magi. And Kirkwall circle is a bad place for all mages, but a bloodmage, one with a mouth too smart for her own good?
This is going to be rough.
And perhaps, for the first time in her life, Marian might have to rely on her Templar little brother. Even if it's only for a shred of comfort.[[Dragon Age II Circle Mage Hawke fic, mostly a trauma tour and a story about how Marian and Carver just can not, and will not talk to each other like the adults they ostensibly are. Mildly canon divergent (Bethany and Carver are both alive, Hawke family history is altered slightly. Also the Circle bit. Written during the same weeklong crashout as my other DA fanfic]]

Summary
This is the story of the life of Valyne Trevelyan, youngest daughter of Bann Trevelyan of Ostwick, her life, trials and tribulations in the Ostwick Circle of Magi, and the circumstances that end up putting her at the center of some rather extraordinary events.
Dragon Age Inquisition(sorta) fanfiction, I wrote in a week long crashout, that I have to edit into something readable now. New chapters will be published whenever I find the time to edit them. Tags are for the entire story, not for every chapter.
The Circles and the Mage/Templar conflict are by far the most interesting part of the Dragon Age series to me, so here we are. Mildly canon diverget in some parts, wildly canon divergent in others - whenever you feel like saying 'hey, that's not how that works', assume it's intentional and either means something, or represents an intentional divergence from Inquisition canon. -

Summary
“This place feels like a prison…”
Cullen turned, his head tilted when he looked Evelyn directly in the eye. She’d spoken aloud.
“It is not a prison. The Gallows is a circle tower like any other,” he told her curtly. “You and all mages are here for your protection, as well as others.”
Evelyn frowned. She’d heard this rhetoric many times in her life as a circle mage. For a while, she may have even believed it, but nothing about the Gallows felt like it was for her protection.
What if the Commander of the Inquisition and the Inquisitor had met before the events of the Conclave?
As the tensions in Kirkwall begin to rise without an elected Viscount, Evelyn Trevelyan is transferred to The Gallows. With the Templar Order splintering into factions under Meredith's paranoia, and Orsino losing his grip on his authority, the last thing Evelyn needs is growing feelings for the Knight-Captain. Especially one who seems determined to keep her at arms length...

Summary

But now, with the Kirkwall Rebellion sending waves of chaos and rumors across Ferelden, Alistair knows that he has to get the truth out of Redren before his people start gathering the torches.

Summary
Life in the Ostwick Circle was cruel and oppressive and Evelyn Trevelyn swears she will never be under a Templar's control again.

All she knows for certain is that she doesn't want it to stop.

Summary
"There were many ex-Templars in the Inquisition, to Erika’s distaste, but there was only one Templar, with a capital T. The Templar, though from Kirkwall, was infamous even at Ostwick, one of the few whose name all mages in the Free Marches knew. Knight-Captain Cullen. Everyone always used to say his name like it was one word: Knightcaptaincullen. He belonged to that illustrious category of Templars, to whom their regular self-righteousness was insufficient, and new and inventive kinds had to be devised on the daily."
A mage!Trevelyan/Cullen romance where they both have a lot of issues, most of which will only be exacerbated in this fic.

Summary
An unexplained event drops people from Earth, or “outlanders”, into Thedas. Especially in Kirkwall, most were assumed to be demons or abominations and killed on sight. But Elaine has managed to survive. Once a skilled paralegal working to advance her career in law, she now works to stay under the radar and avoid Plot Nonsense.
That plan is ruined when she finds herself helping after a catastrophe at the Bone Pit overwhelms the free clinic in Darktown. Another outlander has become an ‘oracle’ claiming to tell the future, and she decides she can’t keep hiding her head in the sand.
What follows is a mostly lighthearted game of cat and mouse as Elaine tries to help the mages oppressed by the Chantry, figure out what the other outlander is doing, and survive a few unexpected challenges along the way.

Summary
Anora Mac Tir, former Queen of Ferelden, wanted for High Treason in her own homeland, was supposed to keep a low profile. She was not supposed to get involved in the Mage Templar conflict, but the dashing daughter of a former rebel-hero would never have been able to leave well enough alone.
In the wake of the Rebellion of the Circles, and the outbreak of the Mage-Templar war, Anora helped those she could reach the safety of Redcliffe, where King Alistair had offered them refuge. She did this at great risk to her own neck, re-entering Fereldan as an exile was a death sentence after all She could have left then, but no instead she went to the Conclave at the Temple of Sacred Ashes, wanting to see for herself how these proceedings would go, and then she would return to Kirkwall. That was the plan. But if that was how it went, dear readers, I would not be writing this tale today. This is the story of the Inquisitor, but more importantly, one of a woman, who was twice thrust with the mantle of leadership, and bore it with a strength all can aspire to.- The blurb of 'The Unlikely Tale of Anora Mac Tir' written by Varric Tethras
The dedication reads: To you Frosty, and to those we lost along the way.
