8. Varric
At this point, Varric has become a face for the Dragon Age series, if not the face after appearing prominently in three games. I have a lot of love for the dwarven storyteller, but I think my appreciation for his story in Inquisition has only grown stronger after seeing some of the payoff in The Veilguard. Varric has gone from a simple roguish businessman in Kirkwall to a storyteller recanting some of the biggest moments in history to anyone who will listen. He has become so world-weary by the time of Inquisition but he’s never lost hope. His personal questline isn’t world-shattering, but it’s a reminder that this man has been dragged through unprecedented times, and will continue to be so as we head into The Veilguard this fall. He deserves rest. I hope he gets it
