''Magekiller'' is a comicbook miniseries set in the ''Franchise/DragonAge'' universe, written by Creator/GregRucka and published by Creator/DarkHorseComics in 2015 and 2016. It is set, before, during, and after ''VideoGame/DragonAgeInquisition''.

Marius is a stoic former slave from Tevinter. Tessa is a loudmouthed noblewoman from Nevarra. Together, they work as Magekillers, those who hunt mages when the Templars won't suffice. One day , the two of them accept a strange job that sends them on an adventure.

* FriendToAllChildren: Marius initially refuses to accept Flavius's mission because he refuses to do work in Tevinter. However, once he learns that his target is sacrificing children, he changes his tune.
* KeepTheReward: Marius has a tendency to refuse to accept payment beyond the reward agreed upon when he is hired, even when it is completely deserved. It annoys Tessa to no end.
