The Dragon Age fandom has a large and diverse cast of characters, so there are many potential ships. Dragon Age ships tend to use portmanteaus and full virgule titles.
Naming Conventions
The Virgule
As in many other fandoms, romantic pairings are most commonly denoted by a slash, or virgule, separating the characters' names. For example, a story labeled as "Alistair/Warden" refers to a romantic (and/or sexual) work whose primary couple is Alistair and The Warden.
Portmanteaus
Portmanteaus are common in Dragon Age ship names. For example, Iron Bull/Dorian is often referred to as Adoribull.
