about
  • Often angry about life and people, but overall kind to those who are at least trying
  • Very short and lightly built. He relies on speed and surprise
  • Doesn't so much persuade people into getting along as shout sense into them
  • Was romantically interested in Alistair, but it fell apart
  • He would really like his old sword, Vigilance back. No plz, Crows. He even helped you out! Be nice!
  • An accomplished thief who took great pleasure in targetting those who thrived at the expense of the poor
  • A string of thefts were actually where the title "Dark Wolf" originated, but it has since evolved
  • Survived killing an Archdemon, but the official story with the wardens was it was a warden who didn't survive and Ferelden refused to acknowledge that and decided to make an elf hero larger than life instead
  • Devyn would only correct the official story if he learns that doing so won't make Kieran a target
  • Worried what the long-term effects of the Architect's and Avernus's experiments will be for him.
  • That and not seeing eye to eye with Warden leadership were mainly why he left on his quest to cure the Calling
  • Then he got lost, he has no sense of direction and traveling Thedas alone was not well thought out
  • A Folk Hero to those in settlements he's passed through under the the title of "Dark Wolf", no one realizes he was the Hero of Ferelden too
world state
  • Alistair and Anora co-rule Ferelden
  • Devyn completed the dark ritual and killed the archdemon
  • Bhelen rules Orzammar and the Anvil of the Void was destroyed
  • Brokered peace between the Dalish elf clan and the werewolves
  • The Circle Tower was saved and eventually recovered
  • Redcliffe managed to fight back the undead with minimal loss
  • The demon possessing Conner was killed with the aid of the Circle
  • Both Amaranthine and Vigil's Keep outlasted the darkspawn attack
  • The Architect survived and is somewhere in the deeproads
  • All companions survived the events of Origins and Awakening
inventory
WEAPON fang
A curved dagger that once belonged to Devyn's mother. The dagger is much older than he realizes, dating back to at least The Exalted March with the full name "Fang of Fen'Harel".
WEAPON dagger
His second dagger is nothing special. He can use sword and dagger instead, but he only picks up swords if he can find them in a lighter/stronger material than he can typically source.
ARMOR hooded scout armor
He has a set of Grey Warden Scout Armor from around 9:30-9:32 that he had modified over the years. The metal chest piece and pauldron have been changed and now both have a circular wolf symbol. The blue padding and leather has all faded and been re-dyed to a dark grey rather than blue.
GEAR camping pack
This includes a canvas to make a shelter, rope, a blanket, flint, a very small pot, and dried foods. When travelling with the ponies this kit includes a better shelter and food/blankets for the ponies.
GEAR armor repair kit
A few small tools to fix damaged rings in the chain of his armor and to sharpen his weapons.
GEAR lockpicks
These are kept with the armor repair kit where they can blend in.
companions
DUSTY - mabari
A highly intelligent war dog and faithful companion. Depending on timeline, this may not be the first of their name, or even the second. If the first, they were blighted once and have more of a sense of darkspawn than most animals, the later Dustys would just be normal Mabari.
SNOWBALL - pony
A sure footed white mare who is Devyn's primary mount for travel. She is sweet tempered, but stubborn about going a certain way sometimes. (This is for the best since she keeps Devyn from getting as lost as he would otherwise.)
SOCKS - pony
A strong and bulky gelding who is Devyn's primary pack animal. He is Devyn's mount if needed for combat. He is a very calm animal, not easily spooked.

    • This means little. Sometimes I am active during the day, typically early evening, random times in the middle of the night
    • When my brain is functional I will boomerang given half a chance but I neither need nor expect replies right away. Sometimes my brain is soup, though, and then replies can take longer.
  • Brackets/Prose: I can bounce off either. But by and large I prefer writing in prose. If you would have an easier time with another, let me know and I'll try to stick to that when writing with you!
  • Offensive Subjects & Triggers: Not really keen on playing off anything homophobic without discussing it in advance.

First Impression
  • Visual: He is about 5' (if that), with a pale complexion, light ash blond hair, and blue grey eyes. His build is slim and he has no shortage of slash scars, likely some burn ones on his body as well. The most visible scars are slashes across his knuckles. His hair style early on was short and kept neat. Over the years it's leaned more into mullet that he cut himself with a dagger and it shows. When in armor he wears the DA2 Era scout armor. In the years after leaving the Wardens, it has been modified. The cloth/leather is now all dyed dark grey/black instead of blue and the Griffon device on the chest plate and pauldron have been replaced by a wolf.
  • Auditory: Loud. Not that he yells, just that his voice carries. The tone medium pitched and a bit coarse.
  • Olfactory: Look, he smells like leather, dirt, dog, sometimes sweat. He cleans well when he can, but doesn't always have access.
  • Other: Those who can sense the blight can pick it up from him much like many Grey Wardens. There's something off about it that isn't closer to Darkspawn exactly, but almost twisted.
  • Demeanor: He's confident, or at least seems it, and brash. He will rush into a situation. He may accidentally talk over someone when excited. He will start to raise his voice as he gets frustrated, annoyed, or excited.

In Character
  • Physical Affection: I don't mind, he might unless he knows the person well. If done by surpise, someone is probably getting stabbed or at least punched.
  • Physical Violence: His love language. But no, seriously, just try and stop him from fighting if it leads that direction.
  • Relationships: I'm not opposed if the dynamic leads that way. Probably only M/M for him, definitely no F/M. Any other relationships would be played by ear.
  • Injuries: General rule of thumb for me is: if it's something minor or major but that he can recover from quickly due to game mechanics, go for it, I don't even need warning. I need warning if I'm gonna have to deal with the consequences for a while though.
  • Death: Okay. This depends on game dynamics. But, never without us talking it out first. I will need to be in a good head space for this, even if there is a mechanic that can bring him back or I planned to exit the game.
  • Mind Reading/Manipulation: He has no immunity to blood magic, but is pretty strong willed, so, it really will depend what you have planned. I think this would just be easiest if discussed in advance.
  • Offensive Subjects and Triggers:
    (These aren't off limits, just know they will earn IC Reactions)
    • Terms like Knife Ear, general belittling of elves, etc.
    • Slavery in general.
    • The Fifth Blight and the events at Amaranthine. He avoids talking about them, even with people who know who he is.
    • Look, he's probably going to be touchy about Grey Wardens and taint overall, let's be real.

Out of Character
  • Backtagging: Absolutely okay. If you pick a thread back up that dropped off I will likely reply. If I haven't replied to a thread in a while and you want it back, just poke me.
  • Threadhopping: I mean if the other party is fine with it, I am GAME.
  • Fourthwalling: Maybe. As an aside if it fits your character? Basically know that I will completely ignore it IC, but it might earn an OOC chuckle.
  • Not interested in:
    • Dark scenarios without at least a decent resolution

Opt-Out

Devyn has dealt with a lot of trauma over the years which can be a lot, including death, discrimination, and lingering illness. Additionally, I know that not everyone enjoys writing with fandom OCs or malleable protagonists, which I understand.

If you want to opt out for any reason just comment "Opt Out". If you have multiple characters, just let me know their journal names when you do.

[PSL] Okay. This looks bad

Cast:
Year:
9:51
Starting Location:
Minrathous
CW:
Violence, TBD
Synopsis:
As if corrupted elven gods and blighted dragons weren't enough to deal with, rumors have recently come to Rook's attention of a mysterious elf known as The Dark Wolf assisting villages in distress and freeing slaves. The elven god of lies would of course, deny any knowledge of a lost agent, so all that can be done is search for leads.

However, stopping the blighted dragons attacking Treviso and Minrathous took priority. Who would have guessed that it might turn out to be a priority for this Dark Wolf person as well.
