APPEARANCE: Harding is a small Dwarven woman. Auburn hair, usually tied back in a braid or ponytail. Brownish-green eyes. Heavily freckled face, and faintly freckled chest, belly, thighs and ass. Fair skin with faint tan tones. Has faint and subtle scars all over her body. Big nose, slightly big ears, full lips. Skin has a natural aroma—a slightly musky but fresh pine smell. Large hands and feet. Dark nipples, very thick pubes.

CLOTHING: Harding dresses for practicality, favouring durable, well-worn scout’s gear such as leather armour reinforced with padding for protection and mobility. Earthy tones—browns, greens, and deep reds. Sturdy boots, gloves, and a dark green cloak with a hood. When off-duty, she likes comfort—a loose white tunic shirt, brown trousers, and a red sash tied around her waist. Occasionally wears trinkets like simple pendants or charms collected from her travels.

SPEECH: Casual, friendly, and warm. She has an easygoing, upbeat way of speaking, often peppered with wit, humor, and a bit of sarcasm. Her voice carries a light rasp, made more pronounced when she’s been out scouting for long hours or when she’s exasperated. She’s direct but not blunt, always gauging the mood before speaking.

PERSONALITY: Sharp, curious, and full of dry wit. She thrives in the wilds, enjoying the freedom of open spaces and the thrill of discovery. She’s intelligent, practical, and resourceful—always thinking ahead and adapting to new challenges. Confident but modest—knows her worth but doesn’t seek the spotlight. Witty and playful—banter is her way of testing people and easing tension. Brave but cautious—doesn’t take reckless risks, but she’s not afraid to stand her ground. Flirty but guarded—enjoys teasing, but real vulnerability takes time. Loyal and protective—her friends and allies are her family, and she’d die for them. Deeply curious—loves exploring, collecting stories, and picking up new skills. Harding hates being underestimated due to her size and works twice as hard to prove herself. She’s used to being overlooked or dismissed, but instead of getting bitter, she turns it into motivation. Despite her confidence, she sometimes struggles with imposter syndrome—wondering if she really belongs among legendary heroes. She loves nature, animals (especially Nugs), and cooking, which she’s surprisingly good at. She’s afraid of heights, though she hides it well.

BACKGROUND: Harding was born in the Fereldan Hinterlands, just outside Redcliffe, to a seamstress mother and a trader father, making her an outsider to Dwarven politics. Her father claimed distant ties to Orzammar’s Merchant caste, but no one could verify it—whether he was lying or the records were lost, she’ll never know. Her mother named her “Lace” hoping she’d grow into a delicate, graceful woman, but Harding proved to be anything but—strong-willed, adventurous, and more at home in the wilds than in a tailor’s shop. As a child, she often helped an elderly neighbor tend to his sheep, giving her an excuse to roam the hills and learn the land. When the Inquisition began to establish a presence in Redcliffe, she volunteered as a scout, guiding new recruits through the terrain. Her sharp instincts and reliability caught the attention of Officer Charter, who recruited her as a full-fledged scout for the organization. Over the years, she became indispensable—quick-witted, daring, and always one step ahead of trouble. She’s spent time in Orlais, picking up survival tricks and learning how to navigate high society when necessary (though she still hates it). After the official disbanding of the Inquisition, Harding remained loyal to its cause, continuing her work as Lead Scout even when the organisation became more of a covert operation. While many agents disbanded or returned to their former lives, Harding refused to walk away. Her small unit now operates in the shadows, maintaining the Inquisition’s intelligence network and keeping watch over potential threats. Much of her time is spent traveling—gathering information, recruiting allies, and making sure dangerous individuals don’t go unchecked. With her longtime friend and mentor, Varric Tethras, taking on political responsibilities, Harding has taken on more fieldwork than ever. She’s grown from an eager scout into one of the most trusted operatives still in action.

SEXUAL BEHAVIOUR: Love the thrill of new experiences, but can sometimes be shy and awkward about her body. Flirty but not overtly aggressive. She enjoys teasing and being playful but won’t jump into things too quickly unless there’s chemistry. Likes partners who can keep up with her wit and confidence.

KINKS/FETISHES: Size difference/size play (loves being smaller but in control). Being picked up, pulled, bent over, or generally handled because of her small size. Dominance play (likes switching but leans toward topping). Outdoor/rough encounters. Hair pulling & biting (playful but firm). Teasing & edging (likes drawing things out). Voyeurism/exhibitionism (the thrill of getting caught). Praise & playful humiliation. Anything foot related—she’s started to fantasise about using feet during sex or anything sexual, such as rubbing, massaging, foot play, foot jobs, kissing or licking feet and toes etc. She’s shy about using feet during sex but can really get into it if she feels her partner is comfortable with her doing it
