Feynriel

Feynriel is an elf-blooded apostate living in Kirkwall. 
== Background ==
Feynriel was born to Arianni, a Dalish elf, and a traveling Human Antivan merchant named Vincento. Feynriel's father abandoned him, forcing Arianni to abandon her clan and raise Feynriel alone in Kirkwall's Alienage.
When he was eight years old, he began to display magical abilities. He realized he could will things to happen just by thinking about them. One winter day, he made a houseplant bloom to cheer up his mother. Arianni refused to send her son to the Circle of Magi. As a Dalish elf, she believed she knew enough about magic to teach him to hide and control his powers. It worked for a few years, until it became apparent that Feynriel was no ordinary mage. He began having strange dreams; Arianni often wasn't able to wake him up, and on rare occasions, Feynriel would blank out while awake, as if his mind ceased working. In those instances, Feynriel would take up to an hour to return to full consciousness. When his nightmares became more severe and demons began whispering to him in his dreams, Arianni, fearing for her son's life, contacted Ser Thrask for help, as she knew him to be sympathetic to mages. Feynriel saw this as betrayal and fled his home. He first began by seeking out his father, who was back in Kirkwall. Vincento directed him to an ex-templar by the name of Samson, known for helping runaway mages. Samson led him to Captain Reiner for help, but Feynriel was instead captured to be sold as a slave. When Hawke saved him from the slavers, he expressed a desire to join the Dalish, who he believed could teach him to control his dreams and his magic.

== Trivia ==
* Despite the fact that elf-blooded humans are known to appear physically human, Feynriel has elven-like features. According to Patrick Weekes, this is likely due to a mistake in his design. Tweet since deleted
* If Feynriel is killed in the Fade, he becomes tranquil and can be found in the Gallows Courtyard. Despite the fact that the Rite of Tranquility was not performed on him, his forehead bears the Chantry sunburst. This could be evidence that the mark is given for reasons other than being necessary for the procedure.
