Atia

"Lick it up baby. Lick. It. Up."
Atia is a young elven mage, former slave to a Tevinter Magister's relative and one of the only two elves the only elf currently studying at the Circle of Magi in Minrathous. She appears in season 2.
== Background ==
Atia has been a slave ever since she can remember. She kept moving households since she was a sickly child, each time being sold for less and less. Eventually a distant relative of a magister took pity on her and took her in. He was a very kind man, with few slaves, but he treated those few well.
She started showing magical abilities quite late - at about 13 years old. Her master started training her but he soon realized he wasn't exactly cut out to be a teacher, so he started saving up in order to be able to send her study at the Minrathous Circle of Magi.
Thus years pass, until Atia turns 17 and her master sends her to the Circle.
She expected not to be welcomed immediately - she was an elven slave in the middle of a flock of magister children- but the relentless bullying that started was too much for her to handle. She was about to give up and return to home, but then Cole entered the picture. Simply having another elf at the Circle helped tremendously. They banded together and soon after that the bullying stopped and they were treated (more or less) like the laetan students. The 3 Cs took a bit of an interest in her and took her under their collective wing.
== Involvement ==
Atia is the party's assigned tour guide in the Circle, as well as Sarah's housemate. The group quickly become friendly with her as she takes them to one of Caecilia 's famous parties.
Later on she accompanies the group in their finding and defeating Cole. She remains at the Circle after Act 1.
