I also have a secret obsession with decorating pixelated homes and will sometimes spend far more time on that than actually playing.


I would totally do this. I don't earn enough to actually decorate my own house all that nicely, but I do love thinking about it so...

 What happens if you put an hardened Alistair on the throne by himself, and name yourself counciler with Loghain dying in the Landsmeet?


He defers most decision making to the chancellor, but is more independent than unhardened Alistair.
Still, the Chancellor has much more power under him than under Anora, hardened or no.

Well as you like to say about the HNM-Anora marriage, you can choose to see it as having power over him or as having a good working relationship.  Posted Image

Cool pic Addai but Alistair in my game is still Vanilla Alistair, and wearing the Juggernaught Plate and my PC is a 2H berserker/templar not a mage, still cool though!

Of course. It depends on how you RP it.

However, I would find it hard to RP a Cousland having power over Anora (but can be RPed with great leverage). Whereas a chancellor can be RPed as having power over Alistair, especially when unhardened.

Oh definitely unhardened.  As chancellor with him unhardened, you are running the country.

You can definitely RP a Cousland who tries to have power over Anora- that's what the epilogue slide suggests could happen.  But her unwillingness to share power is a feature of her character, so it's going to look differently.

The key word is "try". Yes a Cousland can try to have power over Anora. But like you said, due to Anora's character, that would be much harder to do than with Alistair as king.

Makes sense to me. Anora breathes politics and wants the power to do everything her way.
Alistair is completely new to this so naturally he is more dependent on advice, even if he's willing to learn.

It would be embarrassing for Anora if it would be otherwise.

What is kind of annoying is that you could be an illiterate duster or city elf (I know you needn't roleplay them this way) or a sheltered and supressed circle mage and somehow you are Chancellor Awesomesauce per default. How come these origins miraculously know politics?

100% agreed.
I can only make a Cousland or Aeducan chancellor. A la limite, maybe a mage, like the one in Stolen Throne.

But seeing how an elf bann caused so much outrage, I would think an elf chancellor would cause an earthquake.

Oh I'm sure Eamon will still try.  Although I'm not a big Eamon hater, and don't think it's a bad thing to have him as close advisor to the crown.

A mage could easily learn it in their studies. They don't just learn magic I'm sure. I mean you go there as children much of the time, I'm guessing you get regular studies as well as magical.

A Duster would know how politics woork in Orzammar, they'd have to, considering how badly it effects them. Plus Rica is your sister, and has been educated, so she could teach you.

A City elf would live with Ferelden politics all of their lives as well.

And there's also the idea that hardened Alistair defaults related issues to them, not all issues. Unhardened, well Eamon is still around, the PC may be learning from him as well.

I am not so sure he will be able to influnce Alistair hardened as much as he wants though. Mainly since my PC is going to be there to help him out. Sad that I have to the DR now, since I am not a fan of it but oh well.

He was impressed and amused! Though it did lead to a little disagreement over whether he should keep his head completely shaved, or let it be stubbly for my to enjoy:P

I wonder if I were to make a hubby lookalike for Alistair or Zevran if it would get mine interested in the game. Major problem I see -- my husband's broken nose would be really hard to make in the toolset.

Edit: But the hubbystair is absolutely amazing.  Lady Jess, it definitely adds to it since he's gorgeous :D

This is the first time ever I've seen a woman argue for the man to keep his hair when it is scarce.

Heh thanks, all credit goes to  Syl and Axe for the morphs. And I don't think a broken nose  is impossible, there is a bend option in there!

Poor boy's hair has been scarce since he was around 17 (No it wasn't me!). genetics suck for him. And I love it when he shaves bald, there's just this period of regrowth where it feels AWFUL to rub over...I can't explain but it just ugh ick ACK! But a couple days after that it's like drugs, I can't keep my hands off it...lol

But it's never allowed to be more than 1/4 inch long. Uncle Sam has rules.
