Bronach

Mother Bronach was a priestess of the Chantry and the Grand Cleric of Ferelden during Moira the Rebel Queen and King Maric Theirin's time.

Background
As the Grand Cleric of Ferelden, Mother Bronach was an advisor to King Meghren. In general, her advice to the king was to try and adopt the ways of the Fereldans, otherwise he'd never truly become the king of Ferelden. But this was something Megren vehemently refused to do as he saw the Fereldans as little more than barbarians, so her advice mostly fell on deaf ears. She also had a dislike for mages, particullary the king's mage advisor Severan and would often try to weaken the influence Severan held over the king in small ways.

As far as the rebellion went, Mother Bronach supported Meghren as the rightful king of Ferelden, but didn't seem to hold any malice towards the rebels and King Maric either - even going so far as accepting to meet Maric himself once, though she declared that if she had had a proper honor guard at the time, she'd have captured Maric. When the fires of rebellion broke out all over Ferelden after the last battle of Gwaren, she attempted to advise king Meghren to adopt the ways of the Fereldans once more, but to no avail as Megren violenty refused and commanded her to publicly condemn Maric as "a demon, an evil thing risen from his grave". This may have been the last straw for her, for not long after this she publicly condemned King Meghren as a dangerous tyrant and declared Maric as the true king of Ferelden, after which she fled the capital.
