So Cassandra owns a copy of The Stone Temptress? Oho...

Special Chantry edition, no less.

On second thought that probably means the good stuff got censored. Maybe she's going to interrogate Varric about the missing bits...

Question pertaining to the deluge of Varric on the previous page: What would the technical term for the awkward, high-pitched noise I emitted be, and why do I feel suddenly insecure in my masculinity?

Man-squee?

A Squeem?

He just looks to adorable here *blushing* I am a total sucker for a man with a book okay! I love men that carry big books around!

When I see this, I keep thinking that he is licking the book, but I'm okay with that. I'm the kind of girl who likes a guy who has a taste for knowledge. (cwutididthar?)

[Sigil_Beguiler123]

I think, though not sure but in the G4 video we can see Varric using Bianca in melee. It looks like he is swiping at an enemy with the bayonet.

Maybe it tastes like musty old book stored in an attic for ten years? Cassandra's unwashed glove? Mint Mocha Frappe? All of them?

Edit/@Nova: Would be better than that one Bones episode where they went to that one club full of people had fat fetishes:sick:

Yay! I finally was able to watch all of the trailers in HD. Varric is definitely hot! After watching 2H fem Hawke in action, I think I may have to play a warrior on my first play through. I think Varric would appreciate a strong warrior type, especially if she will watch his back.

Long time coming post, I've seen this a lot through the months and now with all these new screenshots (which seem to focus a lot on Varric, thank you the people who are responsible! I'd hug you if I could.) there seems to be a lot of anti-Varric romance posts around. I'm preaching the choir but I'm doing it anyway and this might not make sense because of the frustration that motivates them.

One thing I've been noticing with all the new Varric information coming out, people are reacting negatively to the idea that Varric could be a romance. While I personally don't like to call people out on the forums, it sickens me when people respond negatively to the idea of a dwarf romance and say they don't want Varric as a romance because he'd be "half a romance".

I'll admit, I respond negatively to some people's ideas of romance and I'd be a hypocrite if I didn't mention it, but never have I insulted the character as being "half a romance". A lot of people place artifical ideas on what counts as a full romance in a game, which is insanely silly.

What confuses me even more is when these people often have to bring it up in unrelated discussions about how much the idea of a dwarf sickens them, some artists and fanfiction writers are often told their pieces of art and stories are terrible because there's a dwarf in them.

I'll take another thread from this board to use as an example, the previously (and now locked) M/M thread had some people come out directly and say that if Varric is the bisexual character that they suddenly lost all respect for Bioware for "giving them half a romance" and that Varric shouldn't have been given the funding for a romance and that another potential romance should have been given the money instead.

How am I supposed to answer to that? There's lots of ways, though they made up their minds and dwarves are stereotyped in the minds of people on these boards (and beyond) into some inhumane idea of romance. Yet, here we stand on the treasure trove that is Varric, an interesting character in his own right and a handsome looking fella.

Yet this means nothing, comparisons to beastiality are made and we're considered freaks because we might *gasp* like a character not based on appearence (though he is handsome). These people would probably think the idea of a suave, story telling merchant that is a human or elf as the pinnacle of awesome but it's completely disregarded when it's a dwarf ("ew he looks like ron jeremey!").

*mumbles* I'm afraid I won't live to see the day where Gaider's ancient post will happen, thanks to resource management and how much people seem to be against dwarves.

David Gaider wrote...

And I'm not sure why everyone is so concerned about dwarf romances. If you're playing a dwarf and you think it's weird, then my suggestion would be not to romance anyone. One day, however, we WILL do a dwarf-specific romance. I swear it.

I'll go back to my corner.

I try to not worry about it too much. Especially all the who is a romance, who isn't, who is a better romance, etc. It boggles the mind.



I personally consider that the character of a character (if that makes any sense?) is the most important part of a character. Everything else is secondary. They could be stick figures or all look the same for all I care. Well... not really, I do like my graphics and variety but that's because video games are a visual medium. Hopefully my point comes across.



I'm sure a lot of people who are usually more adverse to Dwarves in general will be pleasantly surprised by Varric. Might even sway a few of them. There'll be some that won't like him regardless but that can probably be said about any character.



Only a month to go before Varric mania, I mean DA2 releases so yay!

I seldom post here but I have to say:

It sickens me that when GLBT community are struggle to fight for respect from the others and against any discrimination, they discriminate the others at the same moment, e.g. not-so-decent-looking people, people not "manly" enough, people of different races, bears/chubby type person, etc.

When we cry for diversity and still are as narrow-minded as those homophobia, do we ever deserve the rights for equality?

I feel shame about that.

@Starlight: aw you don't have to feel shame. You're good people. Buuut I know how you feel. I think everyone feels that way from time to time about whatever group they happen to belong to.
