Andraste

Andraste is a prophet whose teachings would become the foundations of Andrastianism. She was said to be the spiritual wife of the Maker, the being who Andrastians worship.

Background
Andraste was born into the Alamarri tribes on the island of Breton. When she was young, Tevinter slavers invaded her village and kidnapped her family to be sold into slavery. Working on the farm of a Tevinter peasant, she lived a peaceful life under her kind master Darinius. However, when Tevinter soldiers came to Darinius' homestead demanding tax money, she witnessed them beating her master and used her sickle to slit the throat of the leader.

In Minrathous, she was found guilty and sentenced to exile. While wandering the land which would become known as the Anderfels, she was visited in her dreams by the Maker, who gave her instructions and teachings to unite the people of Lordaeron against the Tevinter Imperium. With the barbarian tribes of the Anderfels, Skyrim and Breton behind her, she marched on to the Imperium, spreading word of the Maker to slaves and Tevinters alike.
