''[[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/7227065/1/Wardens Wardens]]'' is a Franchise/DragonAge fanfic written by [[http://www.fanfiction.net/u/1489063/Thaeonblade Thaeonblade]].
Synopsis: Suspend belief and imagine if Duncan had somehow defied the laws of time and physics to recruit all potential candidates from their origins in time for Ostagar? The Result: Chaos on the history of Ferelden and Thedas.

As the author puts it himself, this affectionate parody is an attempt of making a story with, "A mix of genuine drama with audacious humor. I may fail horribly in the attempt, but I'm sure we'll both have fun seeing what kind of mess I make. In case having all six origins present wasn't a tip, a few things may change in future occurances from how they went in the game. Again, this is a parody of Dragon Age so don't expect it to be more than 70-80% faithful to source material. As for the storyteller, I'll leave that for you to figure out."

!!''Thrones of the Four Pillars'' contains the following tropes:

* BlackMage: Apart from his unapologetic cruelty, Mairon favors using purely offensive and elemental spells in battle. He also has no qualms about friendly fire or collateral damage.[[spoiler: After attacking the Black City in the Fade and encountering it's "resident", Mairon now uses a more malicious and literal BlackMagic that takes the form of a [[HellishHorse demonic dragon-pony]]]]
* BunnyearsLawyer: Durin and Mairon.

* CombatMedic: Lealion [[spoiler: and Wynne later on.]]
* [[spoiler: CoitusEnsues: How Revan and Lily resolve their BelligerentSexualTension after the Mage Revolt is resolved]]

* DefrostingIceQueen: [[spoiler: Lily has gradually become less hostile to Revan as time passed after Ostagar. This is best seen from Chapter 14 and onwards.]]
** [[spoiler: After the battle with blood mages in Chapter 19, Lily was visibly disturbed when blood magic was used to make her injure Revan.]]
** [[spoiler: After an encounter with a Lust Demon in the Tower and soul-searching in the Fade, Lily and Revan become a [[OfficialCouple semi-official couple]] during the celebrations.]]
* DualWielding: Revan wields two swords along with his shield and Lily wields knives in each hand.

** So does [[Literature/TheLordOfTheRings Gimli and Durin]]...and what about [[VideoGame/StarWarsTheOldRepublic Shatele]]?
* EnemyMine: The general relationship of the Wardens before Ostagar, afterwards it calms down...[[spoiler: probably]]

** TheLeader: Revan Cousland by default since everyone else either don't care, don't want the job or can't do it.

** [[TagalongKid Tag Along Sister]]: Shatele Cousland, but she's far from being TheLoad

* [[MyFriendsAndZoidberg The Wardens and Mairon:]] Mairon isn't very popular with most of the party.
* [[spoiler: GivenNameReveal]]: [[spoiler: Mairon and Gimli's given names are actually Arthunas and Thorin. It's currently unknown as to why they gave themselves their used nicknames, but it must be connected to their AbusiveParents...[[SarcasmMode somehow]]]]
* HannibalLecture: Whether he knows it or not, Durin's logic doubles as this due to it's affect on the people who hear it.

* HiddenDepths: All of the wardens are showing shades of this.[[spoiler: The Fade manages to draw out just how much these warriors are holding within themselves.]]
** [[spoiler: Mairon/Arthunas snapped after a childhood of torment under his [[AbusiveParents Templar Mother]] and went on a destructive rampage during Viscount Threnhold's uprising against the templars.]]
** [[spoiler: Revan not only lost his father, mother and nephew, but also Iona was nearly a month pregnant with his child when she was killed. Makes one wonder if his determination is merely a [[DeathSeeker cloak]]]]
** [[spoiler: [[SourOutsideSadInside Lily]] is still strongly haunted by the events of her wedding day and the [[InferioritySuperiorityComplex general powerlessness]] of her people]]

** [[spoiler: Gilead's role as [[TheChainsOfCommanding Seeker]] only made his guilt over [[SurvivorsGuilt Tamlen]] that much more prevailent.]]
** [[spoiler: Gimli/Thorin is a SadClown who soldiers through life despite mental wounds from his [[AbusiveParents mother's drinking habits]] and how his grandfather was banished for standing up to the Carta, who Gimli/Thorin would eventually work for]]

** It's made worst when his crazy theories are proven correct.

* KickTheDog: Mairon practically looks for puppies to punt...every chapter has at least one situation where he...does what he loves...
** [[spoiler: Howe literally punts a mabari puppy off the balcony during Loghain's ascension to regent]]
* KickTheSonOfABitch: What Revan wants to do to Howe and everyone wants to do to Loghain. [[spoiler: Essentially how Mairon murders a remaining blood mage in Chapter 19]]

* {{Moodwhiplash}}: One minute, the story is unashamably funny and loves it...the next minute features a tense action scene before going back to comedy...and then drama occurs...Ostagar was a noteworthy example.
** [[spoiler: Some Fade dreams are played for laughs and others...aren't.]]

* TakeThat: Chapter 18 [[spoiler: Half of the interaction between the wardens and Gregoir at the Circle Tower is basically them laying out a long list of hypocrisies and idiocies against the templar order.]]
** StrawmanHasAPoint: [[spoiler: Chapter 19 spells out the other half of the coin however...]]
* [[spoiler: SelfMadeOrphan: It is heavily implied that Mairon killed his parents. Considering his Fade Dream, they may or may not have had it coming.]]
* NoSocialSkills: Shatele, Durin and Mairon
* SpoiledSweet: Shatele didn't even know what an Alienage was

* WellIntentionedExtremist: So far the story has kept consistency with Loghain having Ferelden's best interest at heart.

** So does [[TheLordOfTheRings Gimli and Durin]]...and what about [[Videogame/StarWarsTheOldRepublic Shatele]]?

* {{Expy}}: While they're personalities aren't too similar...the name [[KnightsOfTheOldRepublic Revan]] reminds of something...
** So does [[TheLordOfTheRings Gimli and Durin]]...and what about [[TheOldRepublic Shatele]]?
