"Andarateia" is an Antivan derivation of the name "Andraste":

I joined the Dragon Age fandom four years ago today; somehow that feels like yesterday but also an age ago. When I joined, a dev very kindly reached out with a tidbit about my username. At that time, Andarateia "Teia" Cantori was a side character in the comic Deception, and novel Tevinter Nights. 1/

My @ lore: I fell in love with an elven assassin after reading Dragon Age: Deception in 2018. When she appeared again in Tevinter Nights in 2020, I knew I had to use it for my handle when I joined the fandom later that year.

My @ lore: I was playing trespasser, got to the shattered library, talked to the little spirit and said “me irl”

I still get people messaging me, shocked, after thanking her for the first time and realizing thats where i took the name from lmao

Hagatha Christie • is 3 Trash Gnomes In A Trench Coat @lizagnanoodles.bsky.social · Jun 24

My @ Lore: I thought it was a fun play on a famous authors name, inspired by my friend. It was only made funnier when on twitter, incels kept addressing me by “Hagatha” to *well aktuallllly* me during the DA:TV chaos of last summer.

A digital pencil sketch of Solas from the Dragon Age franchise. He's looking off to the right, brows low and eyes focused. His mouth is pulled ever so slightly into an assaying line. Dark, ragged brushstrokes suggest a fur collar lying over his shoulder.

Heya, Wicked! How are you going? I miss the community so much but I'm just not built for social media. Maybe I can check in more often when I'm feeling like myself again, we'll see. Sending love 🫶

You’d think he’d be a history professor, right? But no. He’s actually the chair of the literature department and his Ancient Elvhen Poetry course is very popular with a certain demographic of undergrads. 📚 #solas #dragonage #modernau #professorfenharel

Thanks to all who reached out over the last couple of months, it means a whole lot. I'm doing ok health-wise; just trying to rest as much as possible and keep stress to a minimum (for me, that means staying mostly offline!). I hope everyone is keeping well. I miss you all! Stay safe 💜

I currently have blisters, hives, a rash, and eczema. I have never had any of these before! And debilitating GI and sinus issues. Three weeks of this, all after taking one dose of a new medication for long COVID fatigue. I'm so exhausted 😔

Andy @andarateia.bsky.social · Apr 5

I had to wait months to see a long COVID clinic and months more to get the required tests and meds. Now the meds are making me feel so, so sick and I don't know if it's worth continuing. I just want to feel like a person again 😞

Thanks, Danee 🫂 I'd take my regular long COVID symptoms over these side effects any day.

I've been playing Veilguard, so of course I had to draw my Rook. I'm not super thrilled with in-game armour choices, so I took some creative liberties, ehe 🥰
