Damaged people are dangerous

Relationships within the Inquisition

2017-11-03T16:09:43Z

Cassandra

Initially found her too abrasive when they met after the Temple of Sacred Ashes, however this changed when he realised that she wasn't above being reasoned with.
Feels kinship as they bore the majority of the brunt of public scorn during the early days of the Inquisition
Isn't above cracking a joke if he feels Cassandra's being too sombre
Flirts relentlessly with her, not realising that she was taking his actions more seriously than he was

Solas

Tries to remain amicable with him, however feels a lot of the time that Solas takes unnecessary snipes at the other members of the Inquisition, even with the revelations in the Trespasser DLC he still doesn't think that he has a right to be a snob.
Values his input when it's necessary and will constantly ask him questions about the Fade
Frustrated that he doesn't try to help the Dalish understand
Most of the decisions that Rahgol made are met with approval from Solas, especially for choosing to help the mages instead of the Templars. The most often they'll butt heads is when Solas makes an ignorant comment and he calls him on it
Wants to try and prove him wrong and hopefully make amends, but is also prepared for the upcoming fight post Trespasser.

Varric

Rahgol's come to view Varric as one of the wiser members of the Inquisition and defended his decisions to keep Hawke safe from Cassandra.
Initially he saw him a a weary dad friend sort, relying on him a little too heavily for support be it decisions or emotional matters
Soon realised this and took a step back, making sure to let Varric know that it wasn't just a one way friendship
Enjoys listening to Varric's stories and offers to be available to bounce ideas off him, but really just wants to listen more.
Encouraged Varric to finish Swords and Shields for Cassandra, hoping it would mend the bridge
Very much enjoys the banter and dry sense of humour

Iron Bull

Understands how it is to feel torn by duty and your own needs/wants, perhaps a little too upfront with feelings for Bull's taste
Flirted relentlessly with Bull, initially out of confusion that he didn't seem to react to his advances and based upon a physical interest
Enjoys philosophical conversations with Bull, realising that he's more than just a pretty hunk of beef to look at
Bull chose the chargers over the Qunari, embraced Bull's hit things method to deal with things.
Rahgol comes across sometimes as still very wet behind the ears but maybe his enthusiasm is endearing

Dorian

Initially didn't click with his playful attitude, ironically didn't think he was taking things seriously.
Warmed up to him, finding him more than helpful to have around and not bad on the eyes
Flirted back and forth with him whilst learning all he could from him in Haven
Was upfront with Dorian about the letter from his father, despite knowing Dorian wouldn't like it also suggested trying to listen to what his father had to say.
Constantly checks in with his emotional well being concerning Alexis, Felix and his father
Kind of accidentally ended up romancing him
Wasn't down for Mother Gizelle poking her nose in

Vivienne

First playthrough with Rahgol, Vivienne seemed to trust him, though believed his view point on mages to be naive.
He tries to maintain some form of amicability with her, but like he is with Solas, he's frustrated with her unwillingness to engage in debate
Current playthrough, petty, tries to push his buttons, very closed off. Doesn't like that he doesn't agree with her.

Blackwall

Unsure where he stands, notices that Blackwall puts him on a pedestal because of the belief he was sent by Andraste
Noticed moments where his story didn't add up
Rather than kick Blackwall out of the inquisition sought to make amends and express that he didn't need to hide who he was.
Blackwall sometimes gets frustrated that Rahgol had a tendency to make jokes or sometimes appear flippant on matters at hand.

Cole

Rahgol is very curious about Cole and tries to understand the spirit as best as he can
Despite not being a mortal being, Rahgol still shows Cole compassion and treats him as though he's still part of the Inquisition
Curious about his abilities, but encourages Cole to help where he can although tells him he doesn't have to make people forget him
First playthrough allowed Cole to become human, [Not sure if I'll do the same next time around]

Sera

Baffled by her, however enjoys the breath of fresh air her antics bring the Inquisition
Respects that her motives are people driven and thus keeps her around
Joins the Red Jennies post Trespasser as it speaks to his little anarchist heart
Butt heads on matters of magic etc, but has learned to not push as Sera will push back

Leliana

Originally terrified that Leliana despised him for living through the Temple of Sacred Ashes and not Justinia
Gave her a wide berth after the first conversation available at Haven
However he's very intrigued about how to be a successful bard and holds a great deal of respect for Leliana's abilities
Tries to check in with her regularly at Skyhold as he's realised she's jaded from everything that's happened.
Trusted her the most with the Chantry going forward.

Josephine

Greatly appreciates her presence and is somewhat jealous that he isn't as eloquent as she is
Doesn't always get the opportunity to catch up with her due to the nature of their roles and can sometimes feel like they're ships in the night
Will however shunt most things aside if she needs something from him.
Also apologetic that she has to try and spin some of his more rebellious acts as being a good thing, such as siding with mages and rejecting the Chantry.

Cullen

Rahgol's appearance confused the heck out of him at first, but wasn't an issue
Doesn't make it a secret that he finds the commander attractive but also respects that he doesn't feel inclined for a relationship in any form
Regularly makes jokes, but when it comes to matters like his Lyrium withdrawal immediately becomes more compassionate.
Always asks when Cullen sleeps or bothers him to try and sleep more in the beginning of the Inquisition. Soon debates that they make an insomnia group for the more difficult nights.
Always down for sparring and or training, even if it's just to get Cullen out of his office.
