What if in Dragon Age Origins there was more than just one hero? The first battle against the Darkspawn was won and the king survived? This is all about new and different events that will cause a far different game.
You are one of many conscripted to undergo the rigorous trials of iniatoin into the ranks of the famous Grey Wardens as the threat of another Darkspawn invasion is imminent with the confirmation of a Archdemon made by the skilled and lucky scout, Reylan. His efforts allowed for the many races to prepare although the elves and dwarves believe that they will fare better to fight them on their own. King Cailan gathers his army with the new Grey Warden in hopes to quickly kill the Archdemon. Can you find glory in the midst of battle or will you fall as so many have before the evil Darkspawn?
Character Sheet: Name: Age: (Must be somewhat young) Race: (Elf, Human, Dwarf) Gender: Background: (High-class, middle-class, low-class)
There also may be a Darkspawn race when we get to the DLC parts and I am open for any suggestions but I am limiting the numbers of Grey Wardens to 10.

She has short white hair with dark red highlights. She dresses like the tomboy she is and her wild raising shows along with her playfulness more often then most would like. History: Lyali was born to a Dalish tribe that lives in the Korcari Wilds. Lyali's mom, Kynis, is the sister of her tribe's current leader. Her dad, Sizair, is a great hunter who like his wife thinks that the elves should team up with the humans and dwarfs to handle this problem. Because of this Lyali was sent to the nearest human settlement to find the Gray Wardens and to try to become a part of them.

OOC: I just added an armor and weapons slot. I would add inventory but Lyali is use to traveling light so she only carries what she needs or what she thinks she needs.
Lyali watched her surroundings now that there was prof that darkspawn were near by and hoped that her tribe was safe.

((I like the new slots so we'll use those. Anyway now when there is combat it will work out like any RPG. Turnbased with the situation being presented to you and the outcome of what you chose to do decided by me. Otherwise this is still an RP))
The mysterious man stand up and helps the wounded scout up as well, supporting him over the shoulder "I will get him back to camp, just be careful wardens." he says before walking in the direction you came from back to Ostagar but before he goes Alistair says "You be safe yourself Reylan." . When he leaves the elven girl who Kiviord saw on the wall yesterday says "How do we know the Darkspawn won't sneak up or ambush us? Maybe run into the main horde?" she asks looking a little frightened as well as a little pale perhaps from all the gore around in which Alistair gets a little serious "There are Darkspawn all around us but we have no chance of running into the main horde. Grey Warden have the ability to sense Darkspawn which is why we can fight them so well." he says then begins walking again "Come on. We're not going to die out here." he says encouragingly. It then the strange Knight appoarches her and looks down "I will protect you, don't worry." he says then follows after Alistair along, the elf girl following behind him daggers drawn ready to attack anything that moves.

Lyali shook her head as she thought that the girl city elf was being a scarey-cat. She stuck to the back of the group so those who didn't think to bring both a ranged weapon and an up-close one could have their chance at the fight and so she could calmly shoot at any on coming threat.
Alistair is walking along when he suddenly stops "Darkspawn ahead. This is it." he says quietly, the thick bushes mostly hiding your party as the knight moves in front of the group his shield on his left arm and his longsword in his right "Elissa, stand close to me with shield raised, Balgrin you stand between us and when we get close burst through and swing away, V'las get your shield out as well and join in the front, Valtair and Satel you stay in the back and attack with range and heal us if needed, Lyali you provide us with support with your bow and Delinar as well, Kiviord you will sneak attack with Tiashi when we charge." he says in a commanding yet inspiring tone "Alistair, form the shield wall with us. Form up!" he yells and Elissa, Alistair, and V'las form a shield wall while Balgrin stand behind him them easily covered because of his height with Valtari and Satel, the mages, standing a little behind. Tiashi stand behind Balgrin daggers ready and Delinar who has seemed to be quiet the entire trip finally speaks as he stands next to Lyali with bow drawn "Exciting, is it not?" he asks with a smile. The Darkspawn stand on top of a small hill. The knight yells once again "Forward!" he says and the shield wall moves forward. This is it, your first battle with Darkspawn. Will you follow the formation or go on you own to combat them?
OOC: I will be making character sheets for all of the important characters so far that I have introduced after you all post.

Since i'm doing a sneak attack I head into the woods to flank them.

Lyali flashed a smile at Delinar but didn't answer the question until she was taking aim for her second shot. "Very." She said with a playful gleam to her eyes.
Name: Reylan Age:25 Race: Human Gender: M Class: Rogue Assassin Background: Low-class Description: Reylan is slightly taller than the average human. He keeps his black hair very short and keeps a slight stubble on his chin. His skin is rough must like his personality. He is often prideful and arrogant but other times polite, caring, and sorrowful. He goes on missions they way he lives his life, alone. History: Reylan never knew his parents like most of the boys he grew up with in the slums of Denerim. He stole, robbed, and assaulted people in dark alleys to survive but one day the captain of the guard descended upon the slums and found him and seeing promise took him as his own, teaching him swordplay and love. However this happy period in his life was cut short when the guard captain was mysteriously poisoned and he was once again left alone. When he was finally old enough he joined the King's army as a elite scout sent in first. Duncan saved his life when Reylan came crawling back from the Korcari Wilds, covered in Darkspawn blood and confirmation of a Archdemon. Reylan has yet to repay the debt of both the Guard Captain and Duncan.
Name: Feron Kross Age: 23 Gender: M Race: Human Class: Warrior Champion Background: Middle-class Description: When he is not wearing a full plate of armor he is a very tall human with slightly tanned skin. His brown hair falling just above his shoulder. His eyes are a deep and bright blue that can pierce most people's souls. He is very loyal to those who he trust but that trusts does not come all too easy. He believe very firmly in the idea of justice. History: Feron was once a slave bought and brought over to serve in one of the Arl's castles as a young boy. He was avoided and sometimes hated by the Knights and even by some of the other servants. It was during a march that Feron rushed to the aid of his Arl during an ambush from bandits that he grabbed the sword of a fallen soldier, fending off bandit after bandit until finally catching a arrow in the chest, saving the Arl. The Arl was impressed with him and named him the Thane of his land.
Lyali's arrows find their mark amongst the Genlocks and Hurlocks who start to charge down at you. Delinar smiles back then takes a shot nailing a Hurlock right between the eyes as it runs, an impressive shot for a Human. Tiashi goes the opposite way of Kiviord and makes quick work getting behind the enemy in which her true colors come out. She smirks quite wickedly as she comes behind a Genlock archer and slits it's throat then using it as a shield as another Genlock archer tries to shoot her and then she discard the body and pounces on the Genlock, viciously stabbing it. Alistair, V'las, Feron, and Elissa break the shield wall and meet the Darkspawn in combat with Balgrin coming out from underneath and smashing a Genlock in the face in surprise. Valtair and Satel cast spells giving you all boons increasing your courage and stamina. In the distance some of the other Darkpawn in the group have heard the sounds of battle and are closing in.

I let out a bird cry commanding the birds to bomb the the closing darkspawn with knives.

Lyali spotted the darkspawn that were closing in and made sure that Delinar knew about the new set of targets. She then started alternating between fairing at the new targets and where support was needed.
The birds, varying in size and species, grab a hold of any knife that they could find and descend upon the Darkspawn dropping them on top of them. Several knives miss their mark barely and some Darkpawn are able to see the birds and raise their shield (Those that had one) and continue however those already near the fight where hit, some just getting sliced but a few getting the blade stabbed into their shoulders or head. Delinar sees them as well and focuses his fire on keeping most of the new Darkspawn from entering the battle. Lyali an Delinar take down several Darkspawn, Lyali however getting a few more headshots then Delinar. Tiashi is taking out the enemy archers with brutal determination, the young elf showing somewhat psychotic tendencies in the manner in which she kills the Darkspawn. Alistair bashes a Hurlock with his shield and plunges his sword down into its throat and raises his shield just in time to block a sword from another Hurlock. V'las fights gracefully and with precision as each stroke of his blade finds its mark. Elissa fights just as brutally as the men, using her shield at times as a weapon slamming it into the Darkspawn sideways, her high-class training evident in her movement. Balgrin fight like the stubborn dwarf he is, swinging his axe around with laughter. Feron Kross, who was at the front of the formation, has gotten separated from the rest of the warriors and is not surrounded by a circle of Darkspawn. The Darkspawn seem wary of him and his heavy armor as he closes his eyes, holding his sword in front his face, but soon a gunlock makes the first move and Feron brings down his shield its arm breaking it following with a quick swing of his sword chopping the Genlock's head off. They all then charge him following its death and Feron fends them off but is struggling to do so as he stabs his sword through the chest of a Hurlock and another one comes behind him and hits him in the back with a crude hammer knocking him on to his knees but luckily he gets up and spins around, swinging his sword across, and cuts the Hurlock in half.
Name: Kiviord vasa Age: 17 Race: City elf specifically Gender: male Background: low class description: Born in one of ferelden's cities in a alienage kiviord grew up harshly but hissmile always remained and his mind cheery enough to forget the horrible things done to his alienage by humans but not enough to stop him from scaring them after stealing all their stuff.

I summon the wolves in the forest to attack the darkspawn then shoot at the darkspawn attacking feron.
Name: Lyali Aleanathem Age: 21 Race: Elf Gender: F Class: Rogue Background: High-class, Dalish elf Description: Lyali is of average height and weight for her race.

Lyali starts to concentrate at the darkspawn that are attacking Feron while mentally doing a happy dance in her mind in reaction to all of the head shots.
