Outlander is a Dragon Age fanfic which focuses on United Nations peacekeeper Sam Hunt, as he is thrust into the world of Thedas two to three years prior to the events of Inquisition. The story is told in an in-universe autobiography "Outlander: The Peacekeeper's Tale" by the eponymous main character.The story deliberately downplays on Self-Insert fanfic tropes by depicting the main character as having no idea about the Dragon Age franchise and the events to come.There is now an audiobook version availableIt has also been translated into RussianThe list below contains spoilers. | |

This Is My Boomstick | |
| Outlander (GreaterGoodIreland) (Fanfic) / int_125eb76c | comment |
This Is My Boomstick: Assault rifles, pistols, a sniper rifle, shotguns, a machinegun, and several pounds of plastic explosives were brought along in Sam's possessions. Although some of the Thedosian characters are familiar with the concept of gunpowder (or "gaatlok" in Qunari possession), they are nonetheless terrified and/or impressed with modern weapons. | |

Rape as Drama | |
| Outlander (GreaterGoodIreland) (Fanfic) / int_12dd1d4c | comment |
Rape as Drama: Unsurprisingly given the setting, this comes up either via threats, or more overtly. Sam ends up as the victim of this twice, since pregnancies from Outlanders result in powerful mages or magically immune children. Firstly via coercion and drugs after being captured, to produce a child with Mariette and spare his captured troops from being raped and tortured themselves. Mariette for her part, who is already attracted to Sam, volunteers for this as being preferable to being gang raped by pirates. Sam is then later on forced by a pirate mage, who then gets killed when Sam is rescued. | |

Arbitrary Skepticism | |
| Outlander (GreaterGoodIreland) (Fanfic) / int_13eea985 | comment |
Arbitrary Skepticism: Subverted: At first, Sam doesn't believe in the existence of demons, despite others who keep saying otherwise. He believes more and more as time goes on, eventually coming to expect things that are fictional in our world to show up. Soprano is skeptical of "flying machines" such as the helicopter Sam arrived in. She is rebutted by Sam, who points out the other technological advancements he has in his possession that seem even more unlikely. | |

Defeat Means Friendship | |
| Outlander (GreaterGoodIreland) (Fanfic) / int_19769f50 | comment |
Defeat Means Friendship: After Sam and his company killed many of Milo Duval's men, they helped the wounded and burned the dead. This created a great deal of trust between Duval and Hunt. Furthermore, it is learned that Duval mistook Sam's group for an enemy, loyalists to Empress Celene. He was originally sent to deal with hostile Sylvans. Without the needed men to handle the latter that could threaten travellers, Sam is guilt tripped into helping Duval, who accepted the help kindly. However, not all of Duval's surviving men are in any way for reconciliation, but kept their words for it. Sam's army defeated an Avvar tribe and they willingly join his side because the Lady of the Skies foretold them of this. | |

Poor Communication Kills | |
| Outlander (GreaterGoodIreland) (Fanfic) / int_1c445e86 | comment |
Poor Communication Kills: The Battle of the Hafter for Ferelden. While they were able to combine inventive magical techniques with longbows and a solid battle plan to counter the free army's gunpowder weapons, their inability to communicate rapidly between their different forces meant that once they were committed to battle they couldn't adjust their battle plan. Subverted with their opposition, who used radios to quickly adjust their lines and commit reserves to counter Alistair's tactics. While they still suffered heavy losses (relative to their small numbers), the outcome was never seriously in doubt. | |

Screw the Rules, I Have Money! | |
| Outlander (GreaterGoodIreland) (Fanfic) / int_230d64 | comment |
Screw the Rules, I Have Money!: When Julie loses the election to Velarana, she wastes little time in holding the new leader hostage by demanding she and Leha be repaid for all of the money they had loaned the government while they'd been running things. This allows her to dictate policy despite losing, forcing repayment with interest, the creation of a national bank, and the establishment of Leha as the economic minister. Toys with hypocrisy, as its clear that she would never have demanded her money back had she won. | |

As the Good Book Says... | |
| Outlander (GreaterGoodIreland) (Fanfic) / int_2439b588 | comment |
As the Good Book Says...: Sam names his horse Bellona (translation: "war"), and quotes from the Book of Revelation to justify it note Behold, the Red Horse, and power was given to him who sat thereon, to take peace from the Earth. Its rider was given a mighty sword, and there was war and slaughter everywhere.. He explains the name's origin to McNulty and Julie with the rephrased passage from Revelations 6:4. McNulty was deeply disturbed by that passage. | |

Defector from Decadence | |
| Outlander (GreaterGoodIreland) (Fanfic) / int_38f1a7ed | comment |
Defector from Decadence: Tam became a Tal-Vashoth due to her faith to the Qun is deeply shaken when she was transferred to Seheron to re-educate the un-believers and promoted with the task of essentially lobotomising those who persistently refuse to convert to the Qun with Qamek. Although initially she had no problem with it, as most of the people she dealt with were those who had committed heinous warcrimes, eventually she met a conscripted, lower ranking Tevinter mage who never wanted to be in Seheron and desperately begged her to let her go. She administered the Qamek, an act which regrettably haunted her. She fled from her people, fearing that she would be reeducated or forced to take Qamek herself for losing faith in the Qun. | |

Curb-Stomp Battle | |
| Outlander (GreaterGoodIreland) (Fanfic) / int_3d699462 | comment |
Curb-Stomp Battle: Whenever Sam start unleashing 21st century machine guns and plastic explosives on medieval-level knights and soldiers. Sam and his group of four mauled Milo Duval's army with well placed Claymore mines on a narrow hillside path. The Templars suffers heavy casualties during their attack on Hearth when Sam prevents them from overwhelming him with a light-machine gun, and then luring the Templars into a deadly trap of explosive charges. The first outlander vs. thirty-two Tevinter mages. Though they outnumbered the outlander, the mages were paid dearly for going up against a being that is completely immune to magic and a experienced Roman Centurion. Later on the Qunari suffer one of their worst ever defeats on the field of battle, resulting in the death of Sten as the current Arishok | |

| Outlander (GreaterGoodIreland) (Fanfic) / int_3e682843 | comment |
Lampshaded the Obscure Reference: Sam deliberately makes lots of pop culture and history references from Earth which are completely unheard of and alien to the people of Thedas, especially when he used cover names like Clint Eastwood, Napoléon Bonaparte and Marquisde La Fayette. At one point, he even refers to his entire group as the Wu-Tang Clan. | |

In reality, he is not unlike any other outlanders that are exposed to the Fade that gained their magical immunity after being summoned to Thedas by Tevinter mages. It is also implied that Andraste was actually an outlander as well. | |

The Peter Principle | |
| Outlander (GreaterGoodIreland) (Fanfic) / int_45de345c | comment |
The Peter Principle: Sam is best as a foot soldier, commanding small tactical groups or acting as a drill sergeant. When placed as the commander of the full free army, he shows himself to be average or below average as a tactical and strategic commander. That said, he largely gets away with it due to the army's extreme advantages in technology, logistics, and discipline. | |

Cool Versus Awesome: A UN peacekeeper with modern weapons versus medieval age knights, mages, and dragons. Before Sam, there was a Imperial Japanese soldier who fought alongside with a mage from a Byzantine-like empire against towering Scary Dogmatic Aliens. Even before them, the first outlander is a Roman legionnaire who initially fights Roman-expy mages and influenced said Roman-expy civilization into becoming one of the most powerful empires in a Fantasy Counterpart Culture world. | |

Everyone Is Bi: Especially Julie. Almost all Orlesian characters at the very least, reflecting the culture of Orlais and the place of sex as a means of climbing the social ladder as part of The Grand Game. Largely averted with non-Orlesian characters, with Tam being the notable exception due to her Qunari upbringing. | |

Rape as Backstory: While she wasn't actually raped, it was only last-second intervention that saved Julie from this during a squabble between nobles. Her perfect memory insures that she can always recall the event, and it is implied to be what drives her in her hatred of all things related to the monarchy. | |

Dark Is Not Evil | |
| Outlander (GreaterGoodIreland) (Fanfic) / int_575fd5e2 | comment |
Dark Is Not Evil: Titus Tiberius Pansa is the first friendliest Tevinter encountered by Sam. Tiberius admits that he doesn't mind at all about slavery and blood magic, but he see them to be use for good intentions. Not unlike Dorian Pavus, Tiberius offered shelter, food, and education to those who are poor and homeless in exchange for their servitude, and therefore gaining their loyalty through esteem rather than force. He sees blood magic particularly useful in medicinal use. | |

Fantasy Counterpart Culture | |
| Outlander (GreaterGoodIreland) (Fanfic) / int_57d43e40 | comment |
Fantasy Counterpart Culture: Sam invokes this trope by comparing Thedas' cultures to Earth's, particularly with the languages of Orlais. There is justification for Ancient Tevinter's Roman-like culture due to the first outlander, who was a Roman legionnaire, being largely responsible for and influential in establishing the current Tevinter Imperium. It is heavily implied that the Andrastean religion itself was also outlander-inspired as Andraste came from medieval Europe. | |

Germans Love David Hasselhoff: Passingly mentions by Sam that some of Earth's popular culture - mostly American ones - eventually became quite popular in Thedas, such as Scooby-Doo and The Wizard of Oz. | |

Photographic Memory: Julie, with positive and negative effects. It's the reason for her extreme ability in smithing, engineering and possibly politics too courtesy of her knowledge gained from Earth books, but she also implies that she cannot forget several traumatic events in her life. | |

Cult of Personality | |
| Outlander (GreaterGoodIreland) (Fanfic) / int_63fa5d78 | comment |
Cult of Personality: Sam inadvertently manages to foster this, to the point where he notes the biggest threat to the fledgling democracy he helped create is himself. The admiration he ends up receiving from his victories, as well as the way he treats others ends up in a situation where he could declare himself emperor and everyone would accept it, not out of fear or force, but because they would genuinely want him in such a role. This is of course completely antithetical to his values. | |

Clueless Chick-Magnet | |
| Outlander (GreaterGoodIreland) (Fanfic) / int_6df8075f | comment |
Clueless Chick-Magnet: Sam, for several reasons. Some are attracted due to the way he treats others, some for the power and authority he has, some because Outlanders produce powerful mage children with other mages. Some even for the fact that having grown up in a modern society with good health and nutrition, his physical characteristics such as skin and teeth are better than the average population. He seems to struggle to understand why so many are interested in him. | |

Altar Diplomacy | |

Altar Diplomacy: This is Tiberius' reasons for approaching to Sam, an outlander and already a noble, in order to add his powers to his family by arranging a political marriage between him and his granddaughter Aurelia. Sam is unsurprisingly stunned and repulsed by the concept. Though Tiberius understands Sam's reactions, but he also points out this is beneficial as an alliance with Tevinter will protect Sam from future retaliations from threats that he and his friends had made such as Orlais and the Templars. He is later forced to take the marriage in return for aid. | |

Because You Were Nice to Me | |
| Outlander (GreaterGoodIreland) (Fanfic) / int_738d1a0f | comment |
Because You Were Nice to Me: Being a noble in the Dales, Sam applies modern day morals towards his vassals. His removal of feudal loyalties in favour of waged contracts, and his utmost tolerance of non-human races and mages earns him admiration and loyalty from the people of Hearth and abroad, in stark contrast to the nobles of Orlais who are busy killing and plotting against each other. Could also apply to Sam, Julie and Tam as a group towards each other. Sam manages to turn a Viddasala of the Qun to his side because of this, giving him extremely valuable information and intel, as well as very powerful warrior. | |

Training the Peaceful Villagers: Sam was eventually assigned to this task by Pierre des Arbes to defend Hearth during Orlais' civil war. Over time, Sam's self-made militia became a Badass Army. Both Justified and Subverted: Sam is a veteran of two armies, giving him the experience and knowledge to pull it off, and his immediate subordinates had fighting experience of some kind already.note Tam is trained in stealthy fighting as a tamassran, 'Mike' is a former huntress of wolves, 'Soprano' is implied to have criminal or assassin experience, 'McNulty' is implied to be a brawler. | |

Wham Episode | |
| Outlander (GreaterGoodIreland) (Fanfic) / int_8e20979 | comment |
Wham Episode: "Discoveries": Sam is revealed to be completely immune to magic. "Inquiries": Armen reveals to Sam and Julie that they were indirectly responsible for causing the mages in Halamshiral to rebel. "Spirits in the Sky": A spirit pays Sam a visit in the Fade and shows how he came to Thedas. "Common Sense": The reasons why Armen has been so busy in his labs? He and Julie has been building their versions of muskets and are working in inciting a revolution in Orlais. "Uninvited Guests": A Tevinter force unexpectedly arrives and saves Hearth from the Templars. Their leader Tiberius then shows Sam a war flag of the Imperial Japanese Army, clearly implying that Sam wasn't the first Earthling that came to Thedas. "The Truth": There were other Earthlings throughout the last two thousand years that were summoned to Thedas by Tiberius' family, who they termed them as "outlanders." They are exclusively immune to the Fade and capable of siring powerful mage children. Sam is the recent outlander successfully summoned after Keijiro Okuba and Tiberius offered him a political marriage with his granddaughter. "The Chant of Light": Sam suspects that Andraste was another outlander. Sam finally decides to help make Julie's dreams of a free Orlais to come true while earning the wrath of certain notabilities, such as Grand Duke Gaspard. "Those Who Solve": Tallis leads a Qunari attack on Hearth in an attempt to capture Sam. | |

Take a Third Option: Sam is later recruited by Leliana to rescue a group of pacifistic mages from the Templars. Armen argued against handing the mages over to the Chantry on the basis that they will be executed while Leliana argued that having them under the Chantry's watch will protect them. Sam decided that he doesn't want the mages turning over to the Rebellion or the Chantry, and instead bringing them to his home under his protection and supervision. Sam decided an alternate and quick route for the exiles' journey to Ferelden is through the Deeproads. | |

Foreshadowing | |
| Outlander (GreaterGoodIreland) (Fanfic) / int_9d12bbc1 | comment |
Foreshadowing: The entire story is littered with future foreshadowing due to the framing being told from an autobiography. It's mentioned in the preface that Sam's arrival and actions cause significant changes in Thedas. The "Sky Sundering" incident in Halamshiral that Sam and company witnessed as they left the city. It turns out that Sam and Julie were indirectly responsible for causing the Halamshiral Circle Mages to join the Mage Rebellion. Sam discovered that there are claw marks on the helicopter that brought him to Thedas when it transitioned through the Fade. As shown by the Baroness of Hearth, it was attacked by demons. Iron Bull warns Sam that nothing will end well if the Qun starts looking for him. Indeed they do. Julie is already set as a hardcore anti-nobility firebrand even before reading the works of Thomas Paine, Thomas Hobbes, Jean-Jacques Rousseau, and Thomas Jefferson. She secretly prepares for an armed revolution in Orlais. Sam will never get along with Cassandra Pentaghast. Sam repaying Duval in compensation to the families of his dead men would become the catalyst for saving the lives of ten thousand people. Sam having a polygamous relationship is mentioned to be something more suitable of an emperor. He's inadvertently forced into becoming one. | |

Half-Human Hybrid: Julie's father was an elf, and she is proud of her mixed heritage. She strongly dislikes people who are prejudiced against elves. Although strictly human, Tiberius and his family are the descendants of a Roman legionnaire from Earth and a Tevinter mage. | |

Giving Radio to the Romans | |
| Outlander (GreaterGoodIreland) (Fanfic) / int_a8371e84 | comment |
Giving Radio to the Romans: Initially averted. Sam makes it clear that he will never give his guns and knowledge of making firearms and explosives away to the Thedasians. This includes to people he feels deserve liberation, such as the mages in the Mage-Templar War. Thedas' societies and militaries are too primitive to know how to use them in his mind, and granting them military and scientific knowledge would cause more death and war, fearing the atrocities that happened on Earth. However, he doesn't mind giving books on non-military Earth subjects to his friends to read; in which he never anticipated that Enlightenment era political and philosophical knowledge inevitably inspired Julie and Armen to plan a revolution in the Orlesian Empire. Nor did he expect that Julie was able to build muskets on her own by sneaking away books on making gunpowder and firearms. Sam is eventually forced to help Julie's revolution and training his soldiers to becoming grenadiers and riflemen. Ironically played straight when Sam gives radio headsets and transmitters to Julie, Tam, Armen and Ciara for communication over distance. It comes up often in Sam's narration that some inventions like the record player are eventually introduced to Thedas. Interesting inverted: an actual Roman legionnaire was summoned in Ancient Tevinter and helped in influencing the foundation of the Tevinter Imperium. | |

No-Sell | |
| Outlander (GreaterGoodIreland) (Fanfic) / int_abd29ad8 | comment |
No-Sell / Anti-Magic: Sam is highly resistant or almost immune to magic. Any energy drawn directly to or from the Fade dissipates immediately when near his body. Armen hypothesized that it may have something to do with Sam having travelled through the Fade. This serves as a doubled edge sword for Sam, as he cannot be harmed by magic yet cannot be magically healed easilynote Sam had his bruises healed with magic, but only with direct physical contact and it almost caused Armen to lose consciousness. It is later discovered that he is immune and anathema to anything involving the Fade, after Sam effortlessly smashed Sylvans into splinters. The full extent of it is later demonstrated when Sam ordered the liberated mages to kill him with magic before a huge crowd of onlookers. They failed. This is the defining trait for all outlanders like Sam. They gathered the very power of the Fade and cannot be affected by it given that they hailed from a world without magic in which that powers lies dormant within them. However, due to a very specific set of circumstances, their offspring can inherit the parent's dormant Fade powers and becoming incredibly powerful mages. Any female who becomes pregnant by an outlander either gains incredible magical power if a mage, or becomes immune to magic if not. This apparently continues to apply even after the pregnancy ends. | |

Before Sam, there was a Imperial Japanese soldier who fought alongside with a mage from a Byzantine-like empire against towering Scary Dogmatic Aliens. Even before them, the first outlander is a Roman legionnaire who initially fights Roman-expy mages and influenced said Roman-expy civilization into becoming one of the most powerful empires in a Fantasy Counterpart Culture world. | |

She was born in Rivain, where Tam's people had invaded and where her father died in a border skirmish. However, she comes to accept Tam and beyond. They began to see eye to eye once it became clear that they both see mages as dangerous, after Armen unexpectedly joined their party. | |

Everyone Calls Him "Barkeep": Tam was a Tamassran turned Tal-Vashoth without any given name. Julie shortens her job description into a name. Sam, who doesn't understand Qunari culture at the time and was in the middle of a prison break, rolls with it. After coverting the Viddasala to his cause, Sam names her Asala ("Soul") due to this being too much of a mouthful. The extremely positive connotations of the name, something Sam is initially unaware of, play a large part in cementing her loyalty towards him. | |

The Revolution Will Not Be Vilified: Julie's ultimate goal is to bring an end to the corruption of the Orlaisian nobility and government in a similar vein to the American Revolution. Sam is against this, because of the bloodshed it would cause without any guarantee it would end well. Regardless, Julie intends to go through with it, and she has some justification. Sam underestimates the thirst of the underclasses of Orlais, most especially among disenfranchised elves, with the success of Julie's publication of Le Sens Commun. Ultimately, Sam decided to help Julie. | |

The encounter ended sourly as Iron Bull (who is a dedicated Ben-Hassrath and haven't been out of Seheron too long at this point) is dead set of apprehending the Peacekeeper due to his knowledge and weapons that could benefit the Qun, which forced Sam and his friends to threaten off Iron Bull at gun point. After the liberation of the mages at Wolf's Lair, Delrin Barris is revealed to be one of the few Templars to survive and surrender peacefully, and (at Leliana's insistence) joins Sam's retinue. He proves his worth by fighting against the extremist members of his order during the attack on Hearth. Leha Cadas is later reveal to be a member of House Cadash and could have been one of the potential Inquisitors (if Sam hadn't arrive). Although she is only mentioned in the war table operations in Inquisition, Tallis leads the Ben-Hassrath in an covert attack on Hearth and tried to capture Sam. She fails and becomes Sam's captive Amund the Avvar Skywatcher is the first named character encountered by Sam in Ferelden. And he is following the prophecy of the Lady of the Skies way ahead of schedule. Except he is foretold to join Sam's journey. | |
