With OC kiss week around the corner, I decided to make a little list of all my new Veilguard OCs as well as some of my existing OCs who are around during Veilguard times. Please consider this an invitation to send smooches to any of these lovelies, if you so desire!
In parentheses after each character's name I've listed their age, pronouns, sexuality, and whether they're open to receiving romantic kisses, platonic kisses, or both. π
(28 | they/them/he/him | bisexual | romantic/platonic)
Lineage: Qunari (Vashoth; raised Tevinter)
Found abandoned as a baby and raised by a Soporati military family, Aristide dwells at a curious intersection of social classes in Tevinter. They learned the advantages of adaptability and a quick wit from a young age, and these skills have helped them survive in the ruthless world of Tevinter politics. Their impatience to see change happen can sometimes lead to a stubborn brashness that gets them into trouble more often than not. Aristide makes friends easily and is always ready to welcome a new ally in the fight to bring reform to their homeland, by whatever means necessary.
Anezka, Warden-Commander of the Imperium
(45 | she/her | bisexual | romantic/platonic)
Lineage: Dwarven (Casteless)
Class: Warrior (Champion)
Anezka was born the daughter of a dwarven ambassador to Tevinter, beneath the protective stone of the Minrathous embassy. Due to an incident as a young girl, she was exposed to the sky and stripped of her caste. Rather than live out her life as the shame of her family, Anezka chose instead to join the Grey Wardens. After more than thirty years with the order, she's earned herself a place as Warden-Commander of the Tevinter Imperium. She is blunt and sometimes brutally honest, but she tempers her high demands on her Wardens with a good sense of humor.
Athnarel, Chosen of Elgar'nan
(??? | she/her | pansexual | romantic/platonic)
Lineage: Elven (Ancient Elf)
Class: Mage (Arcane Warrior)
Once a spirit of Devotion, Athnarel took a body for herself at the height of Elvhenan and was taken into the service of Elgar'nan. Her loyalty and cleverness won his approval, and she was eventually promoted to a position as the captain of Elgar'nan's elite personal guard β and his mistress. Ever since Fen'Harel trapped the Evanuris, she has spent the centuries guarding the last of Elgar'nan's temples, dutifully awaiting her Lord's return. Ruthlessly cunning and as cold as ice, she isn't someone you want to cross.
(26 | he/him | demisexual | platonic)
Lineage: Elven (City Elf)
Class: Mage (Spirit Healer)
Once, Sylvester was considered a magical prodigy and promised a better life than any Tevinter elf could hope for. Unfortunately, in Tevinter, such dreams rarely come true. Abducted and sold into slavery, he spent eight years in chains. Since being freed, Sylvester has devoted his life to the Shadow Dragon cause in the hope of helping others escape a life in bondage. He is emotionally distant but his character is steady and reliable, and his skill as a healer and surgeon is unmatched.
(54 | he/him | pansexual | romantic/platonic)
Faction: Lords of Fortune
Lineage: Qunari (Tal-Vashoth)
Despite having rejected Qunari society, Baqoun still carries a strong faith in the core tenets of the Qun. He has a deep interest in history and folklore, and collects treasures from other cultures in order to return them to their rightful owners. He is something of a self-taught minstrel and storyteller, and he laughs well and often. A fatherly figure, especially to young folks around him, Baqoun is encouraging, jovial, good-humored, energetic β and always ready for a fling with a new lover.
