— Dorian Pavus

” |
Born with a prodigious gift for magic even by the standards of Tevinter and the wealth of House Pavus' luxury, Dorian Pavus bounced from Circle to Circle in his youth until he wound up in Minrathous, where during a drunken stupor he was found by Magister Gereon Alexius. The magister was both impressed and amused by Dorian's intellect and wit, and took him on as a personal apprentice. The two developed a rapport as they research the possibility of time magic, and Dorian began to flourish as both a nobleman and a mage. However, when Alexius' son Felix was corrupted by the Darkspawn taint, Dorian left the Alexius estate as his mentor became obsessed with finding an impossible cure. Throwing himself into his youthful debauchery, Dorian was briefly held captive by his family in an attempt to get him to marry his betrothed, before wandering the Tevinter Imperium for two years as a political outcast and radical.
Eventually, Dorian makes his way to Ferelden, where he meets the Inquisitor and joins the Inquisition, seeking to aid them in closing the Breach and stopping the Venatori, a cult of Tevinter supremacists who seek to put the Elder One in power over the world. After the Inquisitor closes the Breach, he and Dorian learn who the Elder One is, the ancient Darkspawn magister Corypheus. Dorian narrowly escapes Corypheus' attack on Skyhold with what remains of the Inquisition, before rallying and reuniting at Skyhold.
As the Inquisition begins to deal with Corypheus' forces in southern Thedas, Dorian's father Halward attempts to reconnect and apologize. Dorian considers going to the meeting, and eventually comes to reconcile with the trauma his father inflicted upon him thanks to the Inquisitor's advice. With Dorian's aid, the Inquisition eventually defeats Corypheus and the Venatori in Ferelden. Dorian becomes the official ambassador to the Inquisition from Tevinter for two years, before departing to take his father's place in government to push for reforms.
