do you guys think assan gets to sleep in davrinโs bed
Sad Anders because he got too silly
REALLY BELATED ANDERS WEEK BUT AWAKENING THEMED DRAWING.... i know there's a banter with anders with someone about the funny lightning hands
genuinely insane that loghain, at one point in time between awakening and inquisition, decides to switch the armor he got at river dane (which he wore for upwards of twenty years) for warden armour. like, he literally built an identity around that battle, and at one point he just decides he will be defined by the defeat at the hands of the hero of ferelden and the role he found therein. neither of which is normal, per se, but one of them is terribly romantic in the historically appropriate sense of the word
one of those games i always come back to
Via @companionquest: Itโs just so interesting to me to see everyone drawing the default Hawke designs far far more than I ever see original Hawke designs!
Things you should do in the Magi Origin:
Talk to Mouse while heโs here. Heโll paint a clearer picture of the Fade than any other source in the game. I still donโt know if he was the one the Warden was supposed to face, or an intruder preying on the unsuspecting apprentices and using the lesser demons called there as a vetting process. Neither option is a pleasant one.
Speak to every mage, every apprentice. Thereโs quite a few. You could be here a while. Learn about the apprentice who disappeared last week, vanished into thin air, and none of their friends will ever learn why. No one is panicking over this. Itโs useless to panic. They arenโt ever coming back. Hear about the templars who may or may not be watching apprentices in the bath - itโs all hearsay but it doesnโt sound impossible by any means. Understand that you should not be up and about at all, you should be huddled in a dark corner with a bucket waiting for the lyrium to work its way out of your system - generally, about a week. Is the Warden truly that great, or just standing strong for a friend who needs them more?
Visit Duncan in his room. After you speak to Jowan, before you get the Rod. Talk to him about mages. He has emotions beyond mild frustration, difficult though it may be to believe.ย
Betray Jowan, but only hesitantly. Accuse Irving of being vicious, extreme in his vengeance. The difference between Kinloch Hold and the Gallows is not that the former is in any way less abusive so much as the former is better, marginally, at hiding how deep the resentment and fear runs.
Talk to Owain. Pick every dialogue option. Yes even that one. My capacity to feel differs from yours, but you also differ from all other beings. You are no more a person than others, and I am no less a person than you are. Am I to be denied personhood because I do not feel as you do?ย Stare. Blink. Breathe.ย Throw everything you thought you knew about the Tranquil in the trash and start over.
