- This blog is selective, but I am not mutually exclusive.
- Discord is available to mutuals, however, I do not rp over IMs.
- I share FICS and ART of Kaaras on this blog, as this blog was specifically made to revolve around Kaaras as a character, along with worldbuilding, META and HEADCANONS on his background, current and future time periods.
- I also have tags specifically for Kaaras’ PLAYTHROUGH and SCREENCAPS/GIFS. You’re always welcome to share and reblog them.
- All mods that I use across the board can be found here.
- Post banners and icon template made by the lovely @VILLAINSRPHVERSES:- Kaaras is an Inquisitor muse. Unfortunately, I do not write him as a companion unless I have established a close relationship with the mod. This is due to Kaaras' character and world being based around him as Inquisitor, and that Kaaras can be exceptionally fussy when following someone else.

history & more

PERSONALITY:Kaaras is a kindhearted and giving man. In many ways, he can be seen as a juxtaposition, enjoying the simple things of his farm-home upbringing to the fanciest of palaces from having worked with nobles.He is protective of the ones he loves, and a merciful enemy. Kaaras is a firm believer in justice and honour, and has the personality of a true knight, however, he can also become extremely moody and is very stubborn.
As Inquisitor, he takes his profession seriously and is dedicated to making Thedas a better place and helping those he can.BIOAGRAPHY:Kaaras is a vashoth qunari from Ferelden, who was never brought up under the Qun. His parents left the Qun before he was born (knowing they were pregnant), and only told very little to their son of their origins under the strict religion.With tal'vashoth parents, Kaaras was forced to move around a lot as a child, his parents fearing being hunted down by the Ben-hassrath. When he was born in Starkhaven, they moved to Ferelden but a day after his birth, feeling they would be safer there and have more protection. Able to take an abandoned farmland as their own, his parents collected a few Ferelden rams and used the small amount of coin they gained from their coats to bring Kaaras up and live off. His father was able to gain extra coin here and there for doing odd jobs, but being in Ferelden, they were subject to heavy racism from the people.At the age of five, Kaaras came into his magic, and they settled down in Southron Hills. Having come into his magic via a public incident at the markets, a tal'vashoth mage by the name of Saarebas approached them, convincing them that their son needed to be trained unless he wished to be caught and re-educated (or killed by Templars). She offered her services to the family, knowing that they could not pay her, save for a roof over her head while she was in the area.When kaaras was ten, he ran into a young elven girl (only 7 years old) by the name of Aith from a Dalish clan in the Brecilian forest. she was torn and beaten, so he took her back home to clean her up. His mother and father soon came home and agreed that she could stay with them until she recovered, having learned that she had been sexually assaulted by Templars on the road after her clan had kicked her out for being a mage. Aith soon became part of the family, though, and a sister to Aaaras. Unofficially, they adopted her and she took on the Adaar name.At the age of twelve, Kaaras’ temporary home was attacked by bandits, and his father was killed trying to protect him, Aith and his mother. Kaaras became the man of the house, and was determined to hunt down the bandits who attacked his family.For many years, Kaaras suffered serious night terrors due to the trauma and PTSD. Thanks to training and meditation, Saarebas soon saw his potential as a fighter. She offered him a position in the Ash Ataash mercenary group when he turned seventeen (Aith joined with him), where he could put his magic and focus to use.With the group growing bigger, there were too little jobs in Ferelden, so Kaaras moved with the mercenary group to the Free Marches, where Saarebas' company came in contact with the Ralshokra--a qunari driven company who was more than happy to merge the company in with their own.During his time with the Ralshokra, Kaaras met Stenn, a tal'voshoth who he soon fell in love with. Stenn was like the calm in a storm for the emotional hell that Kaaras suffered being away from his home and blaming himself for his father's death. They soon became a fairy-tale romance. However, when bad instructions and innocent lives were at stake, Kaaras' trust in the Ralshokra started to shatter. Saarebas died in this incident, and Kaaras decided to leave the company. Stenn stayed, and their relationship was strained, making them part.Kaaras moved up to Starkhaven and started recruiting more men. He became the Captain of the company and they settled there doing mercenary work for the next few years under the title of the Beres-taar (meaning ‘shield’). Kaaras devoted his life to this, to making better decisions, to letting go of his anger and unhappiness. This was his new goal.The Beres-taar were quick to make a name for themselves, having some of the advantage of former Ralshokra members. Kaaras was a natural born leader, and with the mistakes of the former band he’d been in, he was determined to give his company a good and loyal name for the work they did. This eventually got the attention of nobles in the area, and they earned a decent living.Eventually, their name was known enough in Starkhaven that they were suggested to aid with protecting the Divine during the peace talks. Kaaras was asked specifically by reputation and having previously worked with the Prince of Starkhaven and other noble houses. Kaaras’ company themselves were not overly large, but they were hard workers who showed dedication to their jobs. Numbers were a must, however, so Kaaras was pleased when he got the news that another band would be accompanying them--the Valo-kas.During his travel back through Kirkwall, Kaaras and Stenn reunited, however, things had changed between them, and Kaaras had changed too much as a person to continue a romance. The events at the Conclave happened, and they were separated, Kaaras became the Herald and Stenn remained in Kirkwall.The Inquisition soon became Kaaras' new priority. During Inquisition, Kaaras learns that he has an older half-brother (from his father's side) named Talan'ash, who ends up fleeing the Qun to find him. His mother eventually re-marries, much to Kaaras' dismay, to a Tal'vashoth named Kos. After the events at Haven, Aith returns home on Kaaras' request to take care of their mother, as Herald / Inquisitor could put her in danger. She helps raise the rams and keeps the farm up and running. She also reports to Kaaras as a middle man so letters are not sent directly home. She visits Skyhold when possible.

SHIPPING

- KAARAS WORKS WITH chemistry only. He is also slow-burn, so please don’t expect to ship with him immediately. Kaaras needs to get to know someone as a person before he will develop any romantic feelings for them. Some ships have literally taken years to develop.- KAARAS IS PANSEXUAL. He falls in love with a soul, a person and who they are through their actions. Everything physical is secondary.- THIS BLOG IS a multiship blog. All ships will be in separate universes.- KAARAS WON'T DATE anyone that is significantly younger than him. He also has a strong preference for older men.- I WILL NOT write smut or ships with those under 21. This is nonnegotiable.- IT IS IMPORTANT to know that Kaaras suffers from a condition known as persistent sexual arousal syndrome (PSAS) or persistent genital arousal disorder (PGAD). You can read more information HERE about this.Please note that this is not something I will constantly write about or bring up as it does not determine Kaaras as a person or an individual. This will only become apparent if it’s a situation I feel it needs mentioning or Kaaras does. It is a medical condition and will be treated as such. I will not ignore it, but that in no way means I will focus my entire attention on it either.- KAARAS HAS OCD. This is a big part of his intimate life that will become more noticeable to his romantic partners. He is very aware of his OCD as his mother helped him cope when he was younger. However, he does have bad days that may make themselves present.
