Crosswicking new trope.

Added DiffLines:

* HiredByTheOppressor: The Qunari hate mages so much that the Qunari word for "mage", "saarebas", translates to "dangerous thing" and anyone in their territory who shows an ability to use magic has their mouth sewn closed and their head encased in a heavy helmet, but this does not stop the Qunari from using mages in their combat units.

* GratuitousLatin: The Tevinter Imperium is based more on Byzantium (which had Greek as ''lingua franca'') than the Roman Empire, yet everything from there is named in a slightly [[CanisLatinicus warped]] form of Latin, including some remarks by Fenris, a former Tevinter slave. (His name, however, is Norse. [[spoiler: His original name, Leto, is Greek.]])

Added DiffLines:

* GroupReactsIndividually: There's a number of locations where your current companions will react differently to whatever is around them. Perhaps the best example is found in the "Mark of the Assassin" DLC, where Hawke and Tallis are captured and the remaining two party members attempt to stage a daring rescue, only to get [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GGgVaP-9w54 utterly lost in the dungeon]]. For every possible pair of companions, the devs have recorded an entirely different brief dialogue, which collectively not only give insight into their personality, but paint a comprehensive picture of the tensions and relationships within Hawke's particular RagtagBunchOfMisfits.

Added DiffLines:

* LostPropertyLiveDrop: Inverted variant - in the quest "Miracle Makers," a city guard sergeant has Hawke eliminate a group of Carta swindlers, and in keeping with the sergeant's need to abide by PlausibleDeniability, she pretends not to hear you when you report success... and "accidentally" drops your payment in such a way that it just happens to fall right into your hands.

Added DiffLines:

* LivingGhost: Fenris has been infused with [[AppliedPhlebotinum lyrium]] in a way that gives him the ability to turn incorporeal of a while. The corresponding gameplay skill is even called "Lyrium Ghost". After ''[=DA2=]'', this ability even gains him the sobriquet "ComicBook/BlueWraith".
