3. Davrin
Davrin the Grey Warden is the embodiment of positive masculinity. He’s stoic but not emotionally withdrawn, firm but not harsh, and he’s nurturing to those he cares about. It takes a lot of patience to be a griffon dad and also be the protective caretaker of a strapping adventurer who can’t stop getting into trouble. But he also recognizes that your responsibilities weigh heavily on you and doesn’t leave you wondering about the relationship. Davrin is the kind of man who says “yes, I would still love you if you were a worm” without once getting annoyed at the improbable scenario.
The one lingering question mark comes from him being a Grey Warden. He could be doomed by the narrative, destined to leave you a single parent to a griffon if he hears his Calling and must go down to the Deep Roads to die, or, if some major lore developments happen and he doesn’t have to worry about the Calling, he might suddenly have a lot more road in front of him than he knows what to do with. Dating a Warden is a risk. But with Davrin? It’s one worth taking.
