Wait.... Alistairs' half elven? (I havent read Stolen Throne or Calling yet...)


There is no such thing as half elven. Human / elf couples produce humans (because I presume elven genes are that weak). 

There is a theory that Alistair is the son of an elf, Fiona. Just a theory.

Sigh, my profile seems to be stuck. Although I have played a lot today and yesterday it does not update. I even made a new character (for the profile pic) and played all I have a bit. It is still stuck at 12/19, despite the achievement I gathered and got uploaded here. Very odd.

So could some of you spare a clicky finger and click here? Maybe that helps.

I clicked as well.

Meril, in that podcast that Fernando Melo and Victor Wachtner (sp?) did, they suggested a couple methods for updating the profile.  They said to change a piece of armor and do a hard save.  The other option was to change locations.  I can't say that I've seen proof that any of the methods really work.

 Heh. Aeryn unfortunately doesn't look that great ingame. She has an odd face somehow. I can't put the finger on it but something is bothering me with her look.

Maybe I'll redo her. Gawd, I need the toolset, but that stupid thing denies to function.

Thanks y'all for clicking anyhow  <3 I have done all the tricks to let my profile update. Changed armor, then hard save...level up...then hard save...and the change of location happened during playing on its own. Nothing helped so far. Well...the game always finds new ways to annoy me, it seems, lol.

I better get back to FF-writing than to waste all my energy on getting worked up about such a pesky thing. Heh.

@Rage - Yes, I've learned some things as well, with Randi. Most of them I've blogged, but a couple of the others are:

1 - If you take Morrigan back to Flemeth's, Flemeth is not there to talk to. I'd always wondered how that would work and now I know.

2 - If you refuse to look for Sten's sword, you will still see the scavenger at Lake Calenhad, which will send you to the merchant. You can also ask Dweyn about the missing sword and even get him to hand over the key to his lockbox, but the box isn't clickable!

It's not that long, as I have played yesterday morning and today...but before I have also played a bit in between. And still it says last update 12/19, which I find odd, despite the achievement that got uploaded yesterday after getting Shale.

Meri, I have seen that too. I have Maggie's new look updated, but it still has not updated here yet. Di's story updates faster than any of my other character, but still showing the untinted armor she wore three updates ago. Image IPB

EDIT: Tigress, I had done that before with Mori by mistake. And that thing with Sten's sword I doubt Di gets there. Right now her approvals are:
Morrigan at +15
Sten at +17
Oghren at 0
Alistair at -41

Okay, so it's just fluff. But it worked in my head. ;)

"A clear moonlit night"

They strolled together in comfortable silence through the massive encampment. It was so very strange to be surrounded by so many people after having a camp of just 6 other people, a golem and a mabari warhound. Ostensibly, they were doing an examination of the armies they had gathered (Lana had insisted on “they”, but Alistair knew it really should be “she”, but he didn’t want to fight about it), but in reality they were taking one last moment to simply be Alistair and Lana.

“So in the next days, everything should finally be over,” he said quietly.

Something in his tone caused her to look up at him in concern as she slid her arm into his. “Yes, if everything goes to plan.”

Both grimaced at the same time. In the past year nothing had gone as planned. Except perhaps the Landsmeet, which had gone all too well with their plans. Though one part she hadn’t planned and he did, caused Alistair’s wry good humor to appear and caused a small grin at the memory of being able to surprise his lady for once. She quirked up one pale brow curiously.

“Just remembering your expression when I asked you to marry me, my love. “

She laughed, a sound as bright and twinkling as the stars overhead, as silvery as her long unbound hair shining in the light of the brilliant moon overhead. The sapphire eyes held more than just good humor and Alistair was pleased to see none of the usual shadows haunted that clear gaze. Nearby Dalish hunters sitting at their campfires looked up at the sound and despite themselves, smiled at the human couple. “I can imagine”, she said dryly, “I never expected you ask me at that particular time and place.”

Alistair pulled his arm out from hers to wrap it around her shoulders as they continued on their way, hugging her tight to him, “You did expect me to ask you at some point, I hope.”

“Expect? No. Hoped for? Yes, very much so. Though truthfully I kept trying to think of a good time to ask you, but I always seemed to be pissing you off instead of putting you in a better mood.”

“What? You think after facing demons, abominations, insane dwarves, crazed elves and werewolves I’m going to face groups of even crazier nobles without you at my side? Perish the thought, Marlana.”

She laughed, “Oh, well, when you put it that way, my heart… What woman could possibly resist?”

A smirk toyed at his lips, “None, but there was only one that I had in mind…and now you’re stuck with me.”

“Stuck, huh? Such a romantic comment”, she deadpanned, but her dancing eyes gave her away.

He purred, “Romantic, eh? Let’s try this for romantic.” Before she could respond, he stopped, pulled her up against him and devoured her mouth with his in a long, slow, sweet kiss. When Alistair finally let her go, Lana’s expression held that glazed over look that only he had ever been able to cause. As always that makes him smile softly as he runs one scarred and calloused hand along a delicate cheek. And as always, one slim strong hand covers his to keep his hand in place as she leans into his touch.

Sapphire eyes were full of love and lust as she huskily said, “I suppose that might do.”

Grinning, and not caring who’ll see because they’re betrothed after all, he scoops her up into his arms to return back to their tent. She didn’t protest as he half expected her to do, instead she wrapped her arms around his neck and rests her head on his shoulder.

After all it’s a clear moonlit night that was made for lovers. And the last night they could have as their own before reaching Redcliffe and the darkspawn horde. For on the morrow they would have to don the mantles neither wanted, he as the new king of Ferelden and she as a hero. But they were together at least, and would finish it that way.

@Rage - Yeah, you're having a much tougher time since you're not giving gifts. My worst is Alistair at +11.

rak, she did, and avoided the fight with him. Gained +7 with Sten there. I was hoping the "they will never expect it" line would hit, but the die just didn't go that way.

@Reika - That was beautiful! And I love how you AU'd just enough to have Alistair propose to Lana. I sooooo wish that were an option in the game!!

Reika, that was really nice and romantic. Perfect moonlit night story. I just passed that point on this run, so it really fits what I've been playing, and feeling.*sigh*

Thanks Tigress, just like the DR, him not proposing to the HNF just really irked me.

If I can ever finish up the current snit I put them into in my main fic, I'll have the full proposal written up there.

Edit: Thank you also, Catspaw. :)

I always thought Alistair not proposing to the HNF was a good move and very responsible since he knows they'll never have children together and he was just made king at the conclusion of a civil war during a Blight that almost got them all killed by darkspawn because Cailan had no heir and so he's trying to ensure t hat he'll have one. A king shouldn't put his heart above his duty when doing so will ensure that he won't ever have an heir. Of course, I'm not a romantic so...
