I love to make playlists for characters I play in games and write about, it’s such a fun and creative way to get a sense of their personalities, so when I saw the “Songs for Rook” prompt by Blighted Crow on Tumblr I just had to take part.

Working to prompts was new for me, and I enjoyed the focus it gave. So, here’s my playlist for my Dragon Age: Veilguard character Alana “Rook” de Riva [With my notes in italics]:

“So, I've been thinking”, Alana began, gesturing to the assembled group who sat around the low round coffee table in the Lighthouse library.

“Oh, dear”, Neve murmured under her breath, a coy half-smile creasing her eyes just enough so that you could tell she was joking.

Alana let that quip slide and carried on with determination. “We need a name, for the team. Something heroic and inspiring and stuff – make people take us seriously”.

Taash rubbed their chin thoughtfully. A second later they yelled excitedly, “I've got it! The Avengers!”
