Greetings, Inquisition. At home there is sometimes a custom of something like anonymous gift giving - we trade names and get each other gifts based on a list of preferences. No one knows who found them their gift as it's all a complete mystery.

[ She's positively gleeful, even if no one else can see it. ]

If you'd like to take part then you're free to add your name to the listings on this page with any gift ideas you may have for yourself. I will match people up and then the gift giving can commence. It's not something that you must take part in, of course, but I do encourage it. It might be fun and you might even make a new friend.

ANDERS — The donation of a marginally more pleasant country’s moniker. He's done his time.
EVERY NEVARRAN — Clothing of a less dreary shade. Perhaps orange? Orange and green.
EVERY ANTIVAN — Clothing of a marginally more dreary shade. They're overdoing it.
CELENE’S WITCH — See: Nevarrans.
THAT ELF WITHOUT SHOES — Shoes.
THE NEW PRISONER — A throw rug or something, really. The room is appallingly drab, and one might still embroider “treason” or what for.
THAT ELF WITHOUT HAIR — A wig, for those occasions in which he must blend with a less esoteric crowd. Curls, naturally.
THE LOUD GIRL RIFTER — A little bell, for musical accompaniment.
ASSORTED PRIVATEERS — A parrot or four, they’re going to lose their licenses without.
ASSORTED TEVINTER SCOUNDRELS — A blood sacrifice or four, or at least to invite the rest of us to them. You know they must be keeping it a private affair, which is frankly unfair to the rest of us wishing mere observation.
THE QUNARI GIRL — Do they make blush in blue?
THE OTHER QUNARI GIRL — Or grey?
ALL THESE TERRIBLY SAD BLONDE GIRLS — Hair dye and a handkerchief. Chin up!
ALL THESE TERRIBLY TALL BLONDE ELVES — Hair dye and larger doorframes. Head down!
VARIOUS MAGES OF NOBLE BLOOD — A ring.
VARIOUS MAGES OF LESS THAN NOBLE BLOOD — A cat, or a hobby. Or another handkerchief.
THE ONE THAT SELLS THAT LOVELY SILK — A brief description of Kirkwall’s winter weather.
ALL THOSE YOUNG WOMEN THAT LOOK PRECISELY THE SAME BUT STYLE THEIR HAIR DIFFERENTLY — Numbered tunics.
THE INQUISITION TEMPLARS — Perfume. Perhaps floral? No, better to lean into the whole lightning stench.
IORVETH — A proper glass eye. One of those fancy ones, that’s coloured to look like a dragon’s, or some great cat’s. It's hilarious when they roll out of place.
PROJECT LEADERSHIP — A board to clip papers to. They make it look as though you’ve made any progress.
DIVISION LEADERSHIP — A slightly larger board. (More to hide.)
OUR GOOD BROTHERS OF THE CHANTRY — A show of proper brotherly affection; I believe it’s termed the “noogie”.
THE INQUISITION’S DWARVES — Stooping to their level.
THE DUKE D’COUCY — My introduction.

you're forgiven

These are all marvellous ideas. I will make note of them all to pass around to those who sign up. If you have any names, anonymous friend, then please let me know.

There are an awful lot of Dalish without shoes. Which one?

-Merrill

[matchymatchy]

All of them.

[chainlightning]

Oh! Well, that would be an awfully kind thing to do.

[rathercommon]

Honestly, if you are going to insult people, ought you not learn at least a name or two?

[matchymatchy]

Ought you not sign your messages then?

[justice_is_blond]

At least I'm not called Fereldan. Or Orlesian.

I'm afraid until they're inevitably at war with us, they're both a class ahead of a hostile desert.

-- Myr

[matchymatchy]

And what lack of progress will you be disguising?

[faithlikeaseed]

anything directly attributable to anonymous exchanges on these books.

While I personally am not opposed to a parrot, I think you'll find by and far we're all ill-suited to the care and keeping of brightly colored birds.
