Character Trivia

[Ember Griswald]

I just thought about this idea and thought it would be interesting to do!

It's simple really: post fun facts about each of your characters. Ideally, things we didn't already know, or wouldn't know unless said in a thread. If anyone has looked at the Dragon Age Wiki, each page has a 'Trivia' section in which interesting/fun facts are stated about that person or place. So, we'll do that here.

This can also help you get to know your own character more! If you don't already have any, think of some! It doesn't matter how wacky or crazy it is! Crazier, the better. Plus, it adds a bit of life to your character as well!

I'll start:
