3. What’s one skill your character really wishes they had?

Zev wishes he could read lmao. I mean, he DOES learn over the course of Inquisition but they get to the Well of Sorrows and the only thing he can sort of read is Common. So he feels guilty and stupid for the first time. 

4. What is their favourite food? Their daily diet?

He really likes meat buns! Their daily diet is whatever the clan makes and I’m too lazy to detail that. But a lot of jerky and fruits. He really likes stealing bread rolls at skyhold. 

5. Do they like music? If so, what kind of music do they enjoy?

He likes a lot of stuff except for Country. He HATES country. He really likes Alternative music and punk music. Halsey, Elle King, Lorde, and Laura Jane Grace are like the first ppl who come to mind. 

21. How does your character decide if a person is mature or not? 

I don’t really understand this question? But I guess since he’s super immature it would be if they agree with his humor and junk and are even more of a mess than him he considers them immature. 

37. How advanced is the technology in your character’s world? Do they have mobile phones and high-tech computers yet or have they far surpassed that?

Nah, Dragon Age is like…. medieval? IDk. no Tech. 

38. Have they ever had to hurt someone else, physically or mentally, to save themselves or another person? Were they the same after the incident, or did it change them?

Hell yeah. They do it on a pretty regular basis. I think Zev tends to compartmentalize and doesn’t let himself think of their enemies as people. He makes jokes about it and deflects to keep from thinking about it too much. He always rationalizes and puts his siblings and friends and lovers first so it makes it easier bc he would whole-heartedly kill anyone who threatened them. 

44. Do they believe in elves, or even know any?

uHM? He is one. 

52. Do they have any pets/familiars/animals or really anything that follows them around?

Mahanon. Haha nah I always like to imagine that at some point he rescues a little fennec fox and it’s too cute bc they have the same ears. 

63. What do they do for a living? Do they enjoy it, or are they just doing it because they have to?

Uh in canon he’s a hunter for Clan Lavellan, and he enjoys it but he’s mainly doing it because he has to. When he joins the Inquisition he’s either Inquisitor or (in our AU) he’s there as a member and he DOES enjoy being a companion/member. Is only Inquisitor because he has to do it (though he grows to enjoy it in a weird way, enjoy is maybe too strong a word). 

In Modern!AU he has a ton of different jobs since he’s kicked out of his “clan” and dropped out of school. But his main two places of employment are Yankee Candle and a Gymnastics place, teaching kids. He loves both of those two jobs, the others are just kind of necessary to stay on top of bills. 

64. What are your character’s thoughts on liquor? Ever had anything strong?

Whoops. In canon he’s a big fan of liquor and he’ll try anything and everything. Even like that scary mud-looking dwarven stuff. Bull gave him maraas-lok once and he still goes back to the stuff every once and a while when he’s feeling ballsy. That stuff made him literally collapse to the floor and his stomach and throat burn for like three days after. He and Bull spend a lot of time in the Tavern lol

89. Does your character like the ocean, or are they more of a land person? Perhaps they prefer specific bodies of water, like ponds and rivers, or specific locations on the land, like forests and mountains?

Land person definitely. He probably gets seasick. He loves forests because he grew up in them but he’s really interested in places with hotter climates and he’s so deathly curious about Tevinter and Par Vollen, though he knows he can’t really go to either. He likes being warm though.
