12. What is this character’s secret wish?
It’s not so secret, but Ismat really wishes her father was still alive. Some part of her believes that, if he were, then most of the bad things that had happened to the family would have never come to pass.
19. What is this character’s greatest hope?
She’s had a lot of big hopes over the years. By the end of her time in Kirkwall, it’s really just that she hopes one day she will be able to stop fighting, but considering that she gets completely caught up in the revolution, she considers it very unlikely.
21. What is this character’s greatest disappointment?
When Carver became tainted in the Deep Roads, Ismat felt like she had failed worse than any other time, save for when Bethany was killed. While Carver was able to go on to be a Grey Warden, Ismat felt as though she had failed in doing something that would have kept him safe.
31. If this character had to live in seclusion for six months, what six items would s/he bring?
Does the dog count as an item? She would bring books, craft-y things to occupy her time, food…I can’t think of six specific things that she would bring, as these sort of questions always make me wonder about context. Like, would she be some place where food was available? Very practical things, plus a few distractions.
