#bela

isabela dragon age is literally the character of all time. she's a pirate. she has a big hat. she escaped an abusive marriage that her mother sold her into. she is friends with benefits with the guy who helped her escape said marriage. she loves her friends. she's allergic to being vulnerable. "if we kill them, we get their stuff!". she runs an organization of tomb raiders. she might have been an admiral. she joined the king on a journey to talk to his ghost dad. she chooses a boat over you. she helps her friends in so many ways, from nudging fenris into being more accepting of mages, to being protective of merrill and teaching her never to bet anything she isn't prepared to lose, to using her sheer force of personality to slowly diminish aveline's internalized misogyny. she doesn't wear pants. she lies to you. she leaves you. and if you've shown her kindness and compassion and that you share values (because she has values, she has such strong values), she returns. she's even bisexual.
