o hi ^_^
Hello folks! My turn to introduce myself, it seems. First things first, I found this place though SIB, so the swoopers might recognize me over there as mygoodrabbit. I'm pretty shy in the community though, I haven't posted anything of my own yet, just done a lot of replying. I'm not very used to LJ formatting on the whole yet and though I've been RPing in various formats (tabletop, forum, chatroom, WoW, you name it) for years and years now, I've never done an LJ-style game. I hope you'll bear with me as I figure out how things work around here! I'm really excited about this game, DA is such a great setting and, well, having looked at all these characters you've made, there's a hell of a lot of promise here.
I'm playing Constans, a twenty-five year old human Tranquil. He is Desiderio's older brother, and has been as he is now for about two years. He was a good student in his previous life, fairly popular among the other apprentices, and at 23 suspiciously overdue for his Harrowing before he suddenly turned up Tranquil, which has lead to unconfirmed rumors around the tower that the Rite of Tranquility was forced on him for reasons that vary depending on the paranoia of the teller. The official word on the matter is that he volunteered for the Rite, a tale which he will affirm if questioned.
Constans has spent much of the last two years learning enchantment (go ahead, get it out of your systems, you know you want to), which is intensive and surprisingly physically demanding work, as it often requires the manipulation of metals. In addition to the enrichment that enchantment brings the Circle, the work keeps him isolated with other Tranquil much of the time, out of sight and mind of the rest of the tower... apparently a status the the senior mages find desirable.
It seems as though he is going to be traveling beside his brother, the other mages and the contingent of Templars to Amaranthine, his enchantment skills being presented as an additional gesture of aid to the Wardens on behalf of the Circle.
