Fenris is a major character in Dragon Age II. Trained as a warrior by his former master, Fenris is a fugitive, escaped slave when Hawke meets him. Because his Tevinter captors were mages, he distrusts mages (including those in the player’s own party).
Like several other characters in the Dragon Age series, Fenris can be seduced/romanced regardless of the player character’s sex — making Fenris bi. His tortuous body tattoos, a source of both power and pain, make him a compelling romance option for the player.
