I can't say fanfiction sucks, but I will say that you get some horribly written ones, some that I wish they'd just burn along with the writer.



There are those that are positively brilliant, one shots that has excellent character growth, humor fics (though most are unintentionally such) and then of course the odd romance.



On the topic of sten though, good fanfiction on the guy is like trying to find a needle in a haystack. I despise the fiction written on him. They're all self indulgent annoyances that drive me up the walls.



OOC's that turn is heart.



OOC's that put him on his place



And the worst is of course 'The Sten and the Warden' in my life have I never cringed so much in one chapter. It's a lacking, it's self indulgent, the theories are sub par, though it is well written, but poor ideas set with a feeble romance that seems illogical and, quite frankly a bit cheesy for my taste makes it a horrible read on the whole.



And the theory on why the Qunari fear the mages.... just dumb.



But sten as a character?



I LOVE HIM TOO BLEEDING BITS!



Just wish the fanart and fanfiction would take it up a notch.

I have a feeling if he had been romanceable he would be more of a favorite for some uhm people. (did I just admit something  ;-) )

He is romaceable.

I like pestering Mary about the lack of a Sten romance. She keeps telling me it's already in there.

You just have to look for it

I KNEW IT!!! I knew I hadn't totally deluded myself into thinking we had a thing! yeah, see, that was totally a moderately tolerant almost-smile there.

he is easily my favorite character. :3

Getting Sten's sword back in a fanfic does take some planning, though, because they can't just go straight from Lake Calenhad to the Frostback Mountains to Redcliffe on a mad quest to find a sword due to time constraints.

It can be done pretty reasonably by doing it alongside the main quest. I mean, the stop at Lake Calenhad can happen either because you're gullible and was sent here on the Urn trail, or just to restock lyrium supply on the way from Denerim to Orzammar. Then the Orzammar spot, well you pretty much have to visit that city at some point. Then the final spot is simply returning to Eamon with all treaties arranged.

It's how it happened in my game pretty much. I didn't go out of the way just to find that sword, the places that would provide some info about it merely happened to be places i had to visit anyway for more important reasons.

Hmmm with Sten in fanfiction...when writing his personality I think of my big black cat Max; this huge animal that takes everything so serious but also curious about things, hates major changes and also has a weak spot for treats. So basically when writing Sten think of an adult cat.

maybe especially if treats are involved
But I'm sorry that's how I imagine Sten, I know some people are going to give me nasty glares for that but Sten has a personality of a serious adult cat.

[Golumfryingeggs]

I actually quite like your idea totorotori!



Especially the part of 'doesn't like changes' I think that is a character trait I hadn't spied in him and find it rather intriguing.



Gives me and idea for a horrible fanfic to say the least

Woah now, careful with that fanfic. Great if it's great, but we don't want some repeats of past ones now do we?

Sten...Cat...Sten cat....Now that I think about it Sten is like a cat I know, always staring at me disapprovingly. He also perks to attention everytime he sees someone with confectionaries. Sometimes that cat really freaks me out...

[Group Theory]

Sten is my second favorite companion, behind Leliana. He's definitely a bad ass.

He is definitely a cat in all my playthroughs , he spends all the game in camp playing with Dog

Sten might be more closely related to cats than we thought....

Out of the Mists of fan fiction writing comes....

STEN: THE CATMAN!

He sees in darkness....

He hides in shadows....

Prowling the nights of Ferelden you here is voice on the wind as he slowly creeps up behind you...

You're joking right? O_o

There wouldn't be any woman warriors, all the mages will have their toungues cut off, the chantries will be burnt to the ground and cookies will be fereldens starch!

fun fun <_<

[Sarah1281]

You know, the burning Chantry might not be such a bad thing...or the cookies...

[Lintanis]

 Just hope we do meet him on the battle field ,   See how much I can make him explode 

[Highdragonslayer]

Sten actually could survive the zerg swarm

thats why I go reread stuff that are better
and I agree completely with ya Sarah *hands Sarah cookies and ale*

and not all fanfiction sucks; it all depends on the user....

Yay! Cookies! 

favorite type is double chocolate chip I have to be honest Sten's love for cookies is one reason why I adore the guy
everyone wants him to be manly man Krato's but I don't I want my friend and cookie comrad Sten, at least Sten smiles.

Sten is my Mage's personal bodyguard, you bet I love Sten!

[Giggles_Manically]

Turn Sten into a Sword and sheild warrior and he is flat out the best tank in game for me, besides Shale. I love some of his lines and hearing his dialouge all over the place.
