I don't think HoF and Alistair during Veilguard will be alive (or in good shape anyway), unless in the time between DAI and DA4 they have found a cure for the Calling.

David Gaider said in this 2012 interview:

"Thirty years is the maximum that you could probably expect. It's going to vary for an individual according to their willpower and the level of their interaction with the darkspawn. During a Blight you can expect that the Gray Wardens are going to have shorter lifespans. Outside of a Blight the Gray Wardens would tend to live longer. We have instances in the game of people going on their Calling after five or ten years quote shouldn't be taken as gospel, that's the way I like it. "

And probably everyone who became Gray Warden in the time between Awakening and the first act of DA2 will also be close to their Calling in Dragon Age the Veilguard.

OC asks that reveal more than you think

"I raised many daughters, I know what I am doing." He mostly even believes that, and he just assumes he knows how to take care of a pet. He had tamed beasts at his service, after all, which is not even remotely the same, especially since he didn't tame them. It cannot be difficult, you feed it, you give it shelter and you cure and fix its ailments. You... probably pet it sometimes, pets are supposed to be kept to be loved primarily, not for their use, he heard.

Plants are probably the easiest of the bunch, you just put it somewhere and terraform its surroundings so it will sustain itself. If problems arise, you show up to fix them. ... Unfortunately, his homeworld has no plant life, so he would have to study them first.

"Boy, I had not lived a single day in this life without a pet at my side, nor a single day in my sentience without my job being to care for nature and all its denizens!"

"Of kids though, soooo faaar I did good when I tried.....??" Well, that is a very particular story, and she is omitting the important part, but... technically ture... The awkwardness would be palpable even if she wasn't scratching her nape before adding: "I hope I could. I donno if any of us will ever end up with a child, or if we have to raise one for our-" don't say cult "-group, buuut I think I wouldn't be that bad! Love is half the way there, right? And smarts help with everything! Gods she won't learn peopleing from me though."

"I help a lot of animals, and there are very few accidents these days. It helps that I can speak to them. Swamp plants like growing near me, but others usually die... A kid is probably a bad idea..." Being a hag's child, she only knows how to cook one, and she would rather unknow that if possible. Besides, she's a kid herself.

"Yes." ... "Except for the child, maybe, if living at least. I've cared for undead children before, but I am... less familiar with the needs of living ones..."

Love, love, love Meria’s take on green (and red). Green-aligned people don’t have to be technophobic and against all progress; artifice is growth. One could even say that green’s philosophy of radical acceptance makes some green-aligned characters more willing to embrace it.

I’m not very interesting, but I have a special relationship with Moon Jellyfish in the innerworld, and Starfish seem to really like me. classical music is comforting to me, as well as beach sounds.

I don’t really front enough to interact with media in the real world, but when I am in the innerworld I enjoy singing, interacting with my sealife friends, conversing with the other alters in our subsystem, and sitting out on the beach at night.
