Theneras
Original Character finds herself in Thedas in a world and time she shouldn't be familiar with. The answers to her past and her present lay in muddled dreams. But what of her future? Can she embrace the world she has found herself in, or will she fight to return? This is a twist on a modern woman in Thedas AU. It will not always follow canon. Not a self-insert. OC is not the Inquisitor.
Carina is just your average 40 something that finds a little too much time on her hands and no one to share it with. Her adult daughter was lost in a tragic accident, leaving her with only memories, and dreams of what might have been. She finds comfort in the hours spent exploring the world of Thedas, through the Dragon Age series and books. Dreams of elves and a war torn world filled with magic and wonder, haunted her dreams most nights, and began long before she first heard of Dragon Age. At first they were just snippets of images and feelings, which left little more than a vague memory upon waking. But as the months after her daughter's death passed the dreams become more solid, and she starts journaling them each morning.
She wakens in a world she never believed existed. The dreams and flashbacks become stronger, and soon learns she is tied more deeply to Thedas than she had ever thought possible.
