Dragon Age: The Veilguard is an action role-playing video game developed by BioWare and published by Electronic Arts. The fourth major game in the Dragon Age franchise, The Veilguard is the sequel to Dragon Age: Inquisition.
The story begins ten years after the events of Dragon Age: Inquisition, with previous companion Solas, now known by his previous alias, Fen'Harel, the elven god of betrayal and rebellion, attempting to destroy the Veil, the metaphysical boundary between the physical world and the Fade, the world of spirits and demons; Solas previously created the Veil to imprison the other elven gods after their misuse of power, but now attempts to restore the world of ancient elves out of regret for sealing ancient elves off from the Fade and causing the downfall of their society.
The protagonist player character is "Rook", a member of one of six factions: the Antivan Crows, an order of assassins from Antiva; the Grey Wardens, an order dedicated to fighting darkspawn with their headquarters in the Anderfels; the Lords of Fortune, a guild of treasure hunters from Rivain; the Mourn Watch, guardians of the Grand Necropolis in Nevarra; the Shadow Dragons, a Tevinter resistance faction opposing corruption and slavery; or the Veil Jumpers, a multi-race group dedicated to uncovering the forest of Arlathan which was once the capital of the ancient elven empire. After disobeying the orders of their faction and being sent away to cool tensions, Rook was recruited by Varric Tethras, Viscount of Kirkwall, and Lace Harding, lead scout of the Inquisition, in their search for Solas.
Alongside Harding, there are six other mandatory companions: Bellara Lutare, a Veil Jumper; Davrin, a Grey Warden; Emmrich Volkarin, a Mourn Watcher; Lucanis Dellamorte, an Antivan Crow; Neve Gallus, a Shadow Dragon; and Taash, a Lord of Fortune.
Rook, Varric, and Harding pursue Solas in the Tevinter capital city of Minrathous, attempting to stop Solas from destroying the Veil. Rescuing Neve, the team locate Solas in the forest of Arlathan, capital of the ancient elven empire. Rook disrupts Solas' ritual to destroy the Veil, which releases two ancient elven gods tied to the Veil; Elgar'nan, the god of vengeance, and Ghilan'nain, the goddess of navigation.
Solas is imprisoned within the Fade and bound to Rook via a blood connection at the ritual site; Rook learns that Elgar'nan and Ghilan'nain plan to harness the Blight, the period of darkspawn corrupting Tevinter Old Gods into Archdemons, out of revenge for Solas rebelling against their rise to power and subsequently imprisoning them within the Veil after their murder of Mythal, the elven goddess of love who attempted to keep the peace. The team take up residence within the "Lighthouse", Solas' former base of operations within the Fade, and recover the lyrium dagger used by Solas during the ritual. Travelling through the "Crossroads", the pathway between ancient elves and the Fade, via magical mirrors, Eluvians, Rook enlists allies to pursue Elgar'nan and Ghilan'nain.
Alongside Harding and Neve, Rook recruits Bellara, Lucanis, and Davrin, before being informed of blighted dragons sent by Elgar'nan and Ghilan'nain to both Minrathous and the Antivan city of Treviso; Rook must decide which city to save. Rook then recruits Emmrich and Taash, before meeting leader of the Grey Wardens in Weisshaupt, First Warden Glastrum. Unable to convince the First Warden of the danger, Rook either talks him down or knocks him unconscious, as Weisshaupt is besieged by Ghilan'nain and arisen Archdemon, Razikale. Despite heavy Warden losses, Weisshaupt is saved and Razikale is killed, rendering Ghilan'nain mortal.
Fighting off the Gods' allies, the Venatori, Tevinter supremacists, and the Antaam, the military of the qunari, Rook learns in Treviso that Elgar'nan and Ghilan'nain plan to conduct a ritual in Tearstone Island on the eve of the next eclipse, preparing to pierce the Fade with a red lyrium dagger and flood Thedas with the Blight.
