Anders

Native to the Anderfels, the mage known as Anders would never get to know his family- he was taken by The Circle and brought to Ferelden long before that could happen. He was raised under the watchful eye of the Templar, who kept him "under control". He often dreamed of having freedom and ran away from the tower frequently. Later in life, one failed attempt would lead him to Vigil's Keep, home of the new Grey Warden order. The Darkspawn descended on the Keep, and he was forced to team up with the Warden-Commander to fight them off, eventually becoming a Grey Warden himself. While he would join the Warden-Commander on many missions, one notable one to Blackmarsh, resulted in Anders encountering the Spirit of Justice in the Fade, who became trapped in the dead body of the Grey Warden Kristoff.

After the final battle for Amaranthine and the Vigil's Keep and the death of the Mother, Justice found Kristoff's body was decaying and Anders agreed to allow his friend to join in his body- but his hate for the Templar and the abuse Mages suffered casued Justice to mutate into Vengeance. Shortly after he left the Wardens, and found himself in the city of Kirkwall in the Free Marches, where he joined Hawke, and after a decade of political and physical struggle, started a war between mages and templar across all of Thedas, but at a great personal cost.

In battle and out, Anders is often aided by his cat, Ser Pounce-A-Lot, who's quick temper and fierce strength can nearly cleave the nose off a Darkspawn, and has the ability to revive fallen party members once in a battle.
