Personality/History:
The son of Malcolm Hawke and Leandra Amell, Evan Hawke has lived in
many places throughout his home country of Ferelden. His father was a
mage, and his gifts were passed onto both Hawke and Bethany, Hawke's
younger sister. Mages were feared across the world of Thedas, and so
were forced into Circles by the religious sect, the Chantry. Malcolm was
an apostate mage, meaning, he refused to submit himself to the
Chantry's rule. He kept his abilities a secret and taught his children
to do the same. Therefore, the family was constantly on the move to
avoid templar hunters. Hawke developed a sarcastic and witty personality
over the years to cope with the hard life his family tended to live. He
would always try to cheer his younger siblings up with jokes. While
Bethany appreciated this and was close to Hawke, his younger brother,
Carver, always had a sort of rivalry with Hawke. When Hawke was twelve,
his family settled in the village of Lothering, building a home on the
outskirts and making a life where they wouldn't forever be on the run.
Though Hawke's mother worried constantly that the templars would one day
catch up with them, his father's teachings were sufficient to keep them
safe.

When Hawke was nineteen, his father died, leaving Hawke
responsible for the welfare of his mother and younger siblings. At 22, a
great evil began to overtake Ferelden, and Hawk'e family was forced to
flee their home. Unfortunately, during their escape, Bethany was killed.
The family was devastated, but they had no time to mourn. They
eventually found themselves in Kirkwall, a town on the coast of the Free
Marches. Hawke's mother came from a rich family, and hoped to reclaim
the estate that was once in Kirkwall. However, Hawke's uncle Gamlen had
lost the estate and lived in the poorest area of Kirkwall, Lowtown.
After a year of living in this poor state, Evan and Carver were
determined to work their way out of this slum. They encountered a dwarf
named Varric who gave them a proposition. If they could help fund an
expedition to the Deep Roads, they would be given a share of what was
found. Hawke agreed to the deal and eventually acquired the money.
However, once inside the Deep Roads, Varric's brother, Bartrand,
betrayed the group, and left them to die in the deep cavern.
