Looks like Maric to me. ^^

[alschemid]

No, it is no Maric, even though it kind of look like with this new hairstyle...

[CalJones]

Interesting - she doesn't have the nose quite right though.



Giggles - the Witcher is well worth playing if you can hunt it down.

The Arrangement chapter 16

Ooh, like the fanarts, especially the first one.  I had to go to her page to see what was going on.  Apparently Loghain is in the throes of lust?  Just how we like him.  LOL

I just found and read it - excellent as always (and ugh at Cailan...) Poor Ellie - she certainly has to deal with some awkward situations.

Indeed, it seems the young Cousland was forced to marry him... oh... poor girl! 
Lovely chapter!!

And since I got myself trapped in here.. I had to take a shot:
Loghain still can not figure out all this talk about bulls when he is around....

Is that the opening of the Denerim zoo? Did Loghain inaugurate it? Aww

OMG LOL!!!  Can I use this as a TA illustration?

So that picture is of Loghain forcing himself on a young Cousland?    I like my conception of it better, if I do say so myself.

Well, Loghain WAS raised a farmer. He looks uncomfortably at home here.:wub:

Being that awfully at home is illegal in many places.

Having a law against it is kind of redundant though, as it gets filed under animal abuse.

[KnightofPhoenix]

Pervs. He is not that close...

I think they call it "marriage" here.

[alschemid]

And I've thought I was the perv one... go figures.

So... being raised in a farm, how do you think his childhood was like? A lonely one as he describes Anora's?

No, I think his childhood was pretty normal and wholesome, perhaps hard and impovrished given he grew up during the Orlesian occupation, and they were notorious for backbreaking taxation of farmers and seizure of their property.

But he had a brother, father, and mother, and from all accounts, was fine. I'd imagine He was probably just as stubborn and headstrong as a child/youth as he is an adult, though perhaps a bit more impulsive. But I'd imagine his childhood, as far as relationships with family and neighbors was pretty normal and content. What changed everything was when the Orlesians came in and raped his mother and killed her and forced him to watch, when his father rebelled against some excessive tax or demand from the Orlesian landlords. And then he and the remnants of his family had to live on the run.

Anora's lonely childhood more than likely stemmed from not only being an only child, but also socially higher and more motivated than those children around her, as well as a father who was seldom around. I think being a noble would make for a much lonlier life than a farmer.

[Addai]

Wait, he had a brother?! Where did I miss that?

I grew up on a farm so I can relate a bit. Loghain very much has a farmer's personality as far as I'm concerned. Not that every farmer is the same, but in my experience you are relatively isolated so you learn to deal with things on your own, not whine, and if there's something that needs done you do it. You are also reliant on your family and so that means you look out for them. You can be kind of quiet and withdrawn just by virtue of being on your own so much. As a kid I had to entertain myself, we didn't even have cable TV, and my best friends were animals. Even though I eventually went on to a very social type of job, that's always stuck with me. So when Loghain is alone in a crowd, I can totally relate to that. Anyway, that's my take on it.

Oh, one more thing, the innate pride and dignity is something I associate with farmers, too.  Owning land and getting your living from it makes you feel like a king in your own right.

[KnightofPhoenix]

His father was also in the military, which I think shows on Loghain. And yes I definitely get the "farmer's pride" in him (though modern nationalism was an urban phenomenon).

At the same time, I like how his manner of speech at some occasion sounds more noble than the rest.

[Skadi_the_Evil_Elf]

His codex pretty much describes him as possesing traits considered the essence of Ferelden national character and culture: Self-Sufficiency, hard work ethic, fierce indepenadance, ect. All of which are generally traits associated with rural and wilderness dwelling populations.



I lived on a farm in Ohio as a kid, and yeah, actual farmers are pretty self reliant and proud. Which is one reason I consider them as better models of people than most urban or cosmopolitan types. "Sophistication" is a vastly overrated concept, in my opinion.

[KnightofPhoenix]

I personally am more of a middle class / merchant advocate and sympathiser, I think they are the driving force of civilisation.

[CalJones]

I'm a bit puzzled by the brother thing too - where is that from? There's no mention of one in TSR - is there?

[Esbatty]

After some cursory googling I see no mentions ANYWHERE of a Mac Tir sibling. Although I found a disturbing amount of Alistair/Loghain slash fic that shakes me to my very core.
