Brudika Aeducan

A tanky rogue who weilds double axes. Had a bit of a rebellious phase in her teenage years where she got her tattoos and learned most of her more 'underhanded' fighting techniques. Had a strained relationship with her father due to her looking too much like her dead mother. Lost favour with her older brother Trian after she smartened up and dived head first into becoming the true successor to the Aeducan family (even though she was still somewhat rebellious in some aspects). Basically raised her youngest brother Bhelen as her mother died giving birth to him, and he looked up to her immensely, but later she had to kill him in favour of Harrowmont as Bhelen saw her choice as an act of betrayl. She had a long-lasting affair with Gorim before they were both exiled.

Brudika is somewhat cold and combative, often called "stonehearted" by other dwarves. Very much an 'end justifies the means' kind of person, but is loyal to her friends and the cause she is supporting at the time. Can have a firey temper ("Can I get you a ladder so you can get off my back?!") and takes no shit. Softens a bit after she falls for Leliana. Best friends with Morrigan and Sten, begrudgingly likes Zevran and Oghren, has a sort of love/hate relationship with Alistair and thinks of Wynne as a mother-figure (she'll never admit it though). She softens considerably over the years.

Other Facts:

-Scars: Marks around her wrists and ankles from fighting relentlessly against her restraints after being thrown in jail for killing her older brother, small slash across her chest from an accident when training Bhelen, two slashes accross her back from the assassination attempt by Zevran, a small mark above her lip from some fight somewhere (she's not sure when she got it), and a scar above her left eyebrow she got when she was very little.

-She starts getting gray hair after the events of Awakening and slowly starts having a salt-and-pepper look

-After the events of Inquisition, she marries Leliana (Divine Victoria) and stays in Orlais by her side. Like Leliana, she softened considerably over the years, regretting many of the decisions she'd made.

-Doesn't like dogs but has a soft spot for cats, and eventually begins to like Nugs through Leliana's influence.
