## History

### Early Life

He was born in Gwaren, but was taken to the circle in Jainen when he was four years old, barely remembering his younger twin sister, and was taken not long after the birth of some of his subsequent siblings. Although his magic manifested quite early, he is not exceptionally talented, rather her learns quickly and intuitively thinks in creative ways that allow him to understand magical theory well, and apply it in unique ways, and his lack of self-consciousness, or rather, self-awareness, and desire for popularity, allowed him to be outgoing and fearless in his magical exercises, and never showed a great fear of magic, he simply viewed it as a useful tool at his disposal that should not be squandered on things that do not benefit his life or bring him entertainment. He chafed under the stern deliberations of the Chantry, and the accusing eye of the Templars, he always seemed to either trust his luck, or have confidence in his ability to charm his way out of trouble, so he escaped the chantry when he was 16, before he had a chance to take his Harrowing, he managed to blend in with people well enough, though he often drew attention for using magic on minor things, as he has a lazy streak, but he enjoyed the fact that he was able to travel.
He left the circle when he was 16 and became an apostate, managing to destroy his phylactery when he was still an apprentice.

## Personality

His personality has always been healthy, due to good relationships at the Circle. He is not very religious, not liking the restrictions it places on mages, and thus gets along quite well with Anders, Isabela, and Sera. He is very adventurous, and not overly cautious, though is quite lucky as he has evaded the Templars thus far. He hated the Circle as he wanted individual freedom to explore whatever interested him. He is a blood mage as he was curious about it and not prejudiced as he took what he was taught with a grain of salt, as if they were guidelines. He is not fond of Templars as he was often beat by them for not following rules. He would go around the rules instead of directly rebelling, but is not the most subtle and so often got caught sleeping around, skipping lessons, or hiding forbidden books. He could often charm his way out of trouble with his classic good looks, bright smile, and carefree attitude. He is smarter than he looks, having a good memory for details about people and figuring out what they want. He is motivated by the need to live life to its fullest and to have fun. He lives life like it is an adventure and is constantly seeking new experiences. He is extroverted, energetic, creative, playful, and optimistic, with a great sense of humour, being very sarcastic, even struggling to be serious. He is independent and does not like being told what to do or being restricted. He has never had a serious relationship, as he does not want to be hurt. He uses sneakiness, charm, and running away to avoid sadness, emotional hurt, frustration, boundaries, constraints, and boredom. He gets antsy when he has nothing to do, and, tending to act younger than his age, often goes around camp bugging other people, trying to make them laugh, and talking off their ears about his ridiculous adventures. He jumped at the chance for a four-way with Isabela and often visited brothels. Though he is gay, and not bisexual, he is very open to things, and is sex-positive regardless of attraction. He is flexible, good on the spot, an excellent improvisor and actor under pressure, and prefers to wing things at the last minute, as that has always worked for him and he never cared for academic scoring, only wanting to learn what he wants, which made him such a terrible student that no one wanted to take him up as an apprentice. He can get carried away with partying and easily gets addicted to things like alcohol and sex. He tends to rationalize whatever craziness he gets up to, not wanting to face consequences by accepting responsibility, it does not help that he is still a talented mage when hungover. In later age, after surviving many close calls and prematurely aging due to lyrium and alcohol abuse, he mellowed out and kept that youthful twinkle in his eye, and gets along great with kids, being the "fun uncle". He became more analytical, autonomous, focused, and remained observant and still had an eye for details. He is in his best mood when his need for pleasure is satisfied at a tavern or brothel, and he has no restrictions or responsibilities. He can get petty and complaining when forced to do lots of work and no play, especially if someone is looking over his handsome shoulder. During the hard times of fighting in the 5th Blight, he was more evasive, egocentric, disengaged, compulsive, erratic, agitated, and indifferent to the feelings of others. When forced to lead when he was younger, he was surprisingly authoritarian, rigid, critical, difficult, and demanding.
