Mine wears hers the whole game. Until Zevran replaces it, and Nelaros.

[tmp7704]

Kept it through all game, then put it in the storage chest in the Awakening and the darkspawn ate it.



to make it vaguely on topic, i bet Oghren tried that dress on a couple times when no one was around to see...

Yes to both, the whole game. I didn't love or even like Nelaros but he still died to save me so I'm not going to remove the ring just because I have a new boyfriend (not commenting on anyone who does, I just personally felt it would be wrong) and the wedding dress looked really nice and I didn't really need armor and didn't have access to mods.

That's why I pair my City Elf with Zev. His romance is much slower to develop, and does hit it's highest point until near the end. By that point she's ready to let go. Because she did kind of instantly fall for Nelaros when he said "I'll spend my life making you happy" Maybe fall for is the wrong word to use, but she saw a future. Then he dies to save her. If there was a way to do it in game, I think she'd take it off her finger, and put it on the chain with the Reflection necklace. Or Warden's Oath.

Nonvita, here's an idea to try out. Switch your wedding outfit with Soris. It'll look like this by default:



But if you download the wand mod from here: http://www.dragonage...ile.php?id=1115

You should be able to recolor the outfit based on the game's dye tools. You specify any number from 1 to 38 and the clothes will be dyed according to the color table for that number. For example, #16 is starfang (silver and gold) as you see below:



A few more color combinations you can get (I know there are purple, pink, red outfits, but I didn't go through all of the them):







Edit: Alternatively you can just keep your original wedding dress and use the wand tool to redye it and have it looking different. Now I'm curious so gonna load up the game again and see.

Edit 2: Ugh, never mind. The results were barely noticable on the original wedding dress. Only certain parts of the patterns would change colors while the chest stayed the same. Not worth it.

Oh, I love the Starfang one!

Yeah, I'm very sentimental. I keep Adaia's boots as well. I wear Nelaros' ring until my CE intiates a romance with someone (for Alistair, after getting the rose). Though near the end of the game, all that stuff is in the Storage Chest,

Ohhh this is gorgeous! Thanks so much for the idea--I'll have to try it out. <3


The ring and dress: I keep the dress until Ostagar--somewhere through that I imagine parting with it as a recognition of becoming a fighter. The ring I keep for the whole game (made easier through mods that give it slightly better stats) or until getting Zev's ring, for the same reasons as others mentioned.
I keep something from the origin on all my characters.

[Gilsa]

I had redyed Anora's dress to starfang for my dwarf noble. It's what I envisioned her as wearing as Alistair's chancellor. (Until I found a better looking dress. =p)

I have come to the conclusion that I'm not really big on any of the romance options. Maybe it's a species thing?

Other people (like you, for instance) talk about creating a character to romance so-and-so but it's getting to the point where my non-RP-reason characters are ending up single because I just can't be bothered to do the romance.

Maybe you have the Anora Complex. You said you are your Dad's favorite, maybe youjust don't see one that measures up:D

I just like romance in general. My husband and I have seperate Netflix queues because his are filled with action movies and mine are filled with stuff like the Notebook and Truly, Madly, Deeply.

We have three at my house. My dad's watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Angel, my mom gets sappy romance movies, and my brother's and I are currently working our way through Animaniacs.

LOL well if they were as big on therapy when I was just a bit younger than you, as they are now...I'd have been in it for years for pushing every guy I evermet away at a certain point in a relationship because of mine.

[Gilsa]

We do combine our queues when a new TV season is available. True Blood is finally out so we're pooling our DVDs to get all of the shows faster. My husband likes the vampire stuff and I just like Bill and Sookie's relationship. On the other hand, one of my favorite shows was Oz, but my husband didn't really want to watch that with me. Go figure.

I am definitely not a fan of therapy. My mother and I...don't get along, to put it mildly. The summer after eighth grade when my dad and one or two of my brothers were at summer camp she dragged me to a therapist, told her a biased account of all the problems she thought I had, and the therapist decided I had Aspergers (which I've never agreed with) and so prescribed medication. When my dad got home he was pissed but since I had started taking the medication (for the first six weeks my mom actually watched to see if I would at least) because one of my best friends was moving across the country and she wouldn't let me go over to say goodbye if I didn't do it he claimed I was stuck with it.

Despite the fact that I told them I didn't want or need therapy or medication and never actually took the medication, they thought that the medication was helping me so much because as I grew up I outgrew a lot of the things mom was complaining about in the first place and so they were all convinced that when I stopped taking the medication I'd revert back into my fourteen-year-old self. I warned them I wouldn't be going to therapy after I turned eighteen and so my first session after my birthday they were talking about 'weaning me off' the medication after I rejected their offer to keep going while I was in college and upon finding out I hadn't taken any of it in four years...damn, they were pissed. They were all 'you should have told us so we wouldn't waste our money!' They seem to forget that whenever I did try telling them they forced me to take it that day...

Yeah, so basically the entire thing was completely unnecessary because as annoying as I was at fourteen I did grow out of it and they were all convinced the medication was working. That's the problem with being the oldest, I guess: parents freak out about everything.

[Gilsa]

That's a pretty big thing to do without your dad's support. My husband would flip out on me if I did that without involving him in the process. He was a difficult child and some doctor wanted to put him on drugs, but his parents said no. He was actually fine and gets irate if someone wants to self-diagnose a temper tantrum as anything, but the kid being over-tired.

lol my oldest has no such problem. The only get dragged to a doctor if there's a fever over 100 or blood running. 

My problem was, I'd get into a relationship, make it to close a year and then start picking the most horrific fights. Until the guy broke up with me. I did it to my husband too, and the more he stuck around the worse I acted, until my grandmother pulled me aside one day and told me to cut the crap. Observant woman that she was, she picked up on the fact that having my Dad leave us when I was 3, and my grandfather, the only real father figure I had, die when I was 8...convinced me that men left me for what I saw as no reason. So, I subconsciously figured if they were going to leave, they'd have a reason.

Hubby took it though, and I eventually realized he wasn't going anywhere.

Who needs shrinks when ya have a grandmother? Ok...besides HER, she was bipolar we found out after she died.

[Nonvita]

Just wanted to say thanks for the idea Gilsa--my CE and Soris can now have actual wedding clothes:



And yeah, the problem with the psychiatry industry is it's too focused on making money. They'll exaggerate problems just so they can prescribe pills, which gets them money.


Annnnd dwarves!

I have a friend who's son as asperger's. And she is REALLY cautious about how easy they label kids these days and toss medications at them. So she got SEVERAL opinions, tests, and did a crapload of research before she accepted the diagnosis. My youngest had a teacher that told me she was sure she has ADHD, because she isn't as mature as "most 15 year olds" and she talks alot and has a short attention span.. I'll admit she isn't. And I'm GLAD in a way, because 15 years olds now...aren't kids anymore. But I'll be damned if she's getting put on medication because she's DIFFERENT from some teacher's cookie cutter idea of what a kid her age should be.

[Gilsa]

No sweat! And you get a dress that's totally CE exclusive! (I have not see that outfit available to dwarves or humans in the game. Other than mods!)
