* YouAreInCommandNow: Everyone above him in the Chantry leadership [[EverybodysDeadDave died at the Conclave]], leaving him as the highest ranking member alive. He's left distraught and unsure of his own authority. He copes by trying to assert himself and by trying to get everyone to stick to established succession protocols, making him appear unreasonably obstructive to the Inquisition and the Inquisitor-to-be.

[[folder:Grand Enchanter Fiona]]
[[quoteright:270:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/270px-fiona_portrait_hoda_4735.jpg]]

Former Grey Warden and Grand Enchanter of the disbanded College of Magi. After the events of ''Literature/{{Asunder}}'' she and her fellow mages took shelter in Redcliffe.

* ActionGirl: As a mage, she's probably the strongest member of the party.
* BodyHorror: When possessed by the Demon and as the darkspawn corruption spreads.
* CharacterDevelopment: As an older woman in ''Inquisition'', she's much calmer and more reasonable than she was in ''The Calling.''
* DefrostingIceQueen: To Maric when she realizes he is not like the Count.
* FantasticRacism: A victim and perpetrator of it.
* HotBlooded: She has a tendency to let her temper get the better of her ''all the bloody time.'' This is presumably the reason why Duncan [[ICallItVera named]] an [[AnAxeToGrind axe]] after her, according one of the [[DownloadableContent item packs]] from ''VideoGame/DragonAgeII''.
* HumblePie: The entire Redcliffe questline in ''Inquisition'' [[spoiler: if you support the mages is one. The death of Justinia convinces her to go to the Tevinter Imperium for help...only the magisters she contacted were Venatori, so she's soon enthralled to Alexius's will, Arl Teagan is thrown out of his own castle, and the Inquisitor takes a stroll through time. When Alexius is finally defeated, she's apprehended and is thrown out of Ferelden, possibly by King Alistair, her own son.]]
* TheImmune: [[spoiler:[[AmbiguousSituation Possibly]]. It's hinted at the end of "The Calling" that after having her premature Calling reversed, she might not have to go through it in the future. ''Asunder'' reveals that she's still around thirty years later, but it should be noted that the time it takes for Wardens to succumb to the Taint varies between each individual]].
* MissingMom: [[spoiler:In ''Literature/TheCalling,'' she reveals to Maric that she has given birth to his illegitimate son, and makes him promise to tell the boy that his mother was a human woman who died when he was born. It has since been confirmed by WordOfGod that yes, that child was Alistair.]]
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: She can be abrasive, judgmental and pushy, but clearly genuinely cares about her friends and unlike other characters with similar beliefs (Anders and Adrian spring to mind) she doesn't manipulate others for her goals, even on the matter of mage freedom.
* OlderAndWiser: After 30 years she returns still incredibly hotblooded and stubborn, but a bit more willing to listen to reason.
* PrecisionFStrike: During the Conclave in ''Asunder'', when it's pointed out to her that [[spoiler: the Divine is willing to help the mages]], her response is an emphatic, "Fuck [[spoiler: the Divine]]!" Unique as it's also the only use of the word ''fuck'' so far in the whole ''Franchise/DragonAge'' franchise.
* RapeAsBackstory: Only it's actually relevant. She was the sex slave to an Orlesian noble from ages seven to fourteen, and assumed that all noblemen if not all humans were like that.
* RebelLeader: In ''Literature/{{Asunder}}'', [[spoiler:she becomes this to the mages.]]
* ReplacementGoldfish: Maric isn't convinced he isn't using her as a replacement for Katriel.
* {{Tsundere}}: More Tsuntsun, but she eventually shows her deredere side.

Felix is only child and heir of magister Gereon Alexius. His mother died in a darkspawn attack en route to Hossberg and Felix caught the Blight from the attack, resulting in him suffering a slow death.

* DarkIsNotEvil: He's a Tevinter Mage, but he's a NiceGuy.
* IllBoy: He's suffering from the Blight. [[spoiler: After his father is defeated, he returns to Tevinter to tell them what happened. And shortly afterwards, expires from his illness.]]
* MoralityPet: To his father, though it also causes him to make a deal with the [[BigBad Elder One.]]
* MyCountryTisOfTheeThatISting: He loves his father and country, but cults and time magic is going far too far in his opinion.

* TheSmartGuy: Stiches as TheMedic, Rocky as the [[MadBomber explosives expert.]], and Dalish as the mage.

He uses the last of his strength to direct the survivors to escape through a lost pilgrimage path that only he knows about (as the rest of those who knew died in the Conclave explosion). The coincidence of this makes him wonder [[HeelFaithTurn if there really are divine forces aiding the Herald.]]]]
