The Hawke “twins”
- met as children, Malcky is being bullied at school (do they even have school in dragon age?) and Xiomara intervenes. They become best friends and literally attached to the hip 24/7
- in their teen years, Malcky finds out that Xiomara’s family are having trouble. It turns out her family got involved with the crows, and so she moves in with the Hawke’s for some time.
- around a year before they leave to escape the blight, Xiomara finds out her mother is dying, and because her father was killed by Crows she goes back to live with her, until she passes.
- the day they escape lothering. Hawke is adamant he’s NOT going without Xiomara. Which causes a whole fight with the Hawke family but he doesn’t care. He’s not leaving her behind. So she decides to go with them
- and boom. The whole joke about being twins comes back up. They capitalise on it at Kirkwall, get up to all sorts of mischief, no I don’t think they do every single mission together, but they’re still around each other almost 24/7
- Xiomara is a mage so, she absolutely is pro mage. Malcky is a warrior, but he is also very pro mage on account of Beth and Mara being mages.
- she also has a fling with Isabella but they can’t commit to one another sadly, cause they feel they’re on 2 entirely separate paths.
- Xiomara helps hide Anders until he can escape from Kirkwall, all while Malcky has to pretend it isn’t happening so that it doesn’t raise suspicion
- they both go to Skyhold but honestly Xiomara is just there for vibes. She’s done with being “Champion of Kirkwall.” So she just lets Malcky take over the mantle solo. But they do still claim they’re twins. Cause honestly they can’t back down now that it’s gone on so long.
