Title of picture - Sten Disapproves.

Question for all: what is your favourite Sten moment?


Edit: ok alternative picture found. Photobucket is so weird sometimes.

Giving him his sword back (especially when he says "completion") and his speech at the Denerim gates. Well, his tantrum at Haven also ranks amongst them.

Gah, too many awesome Sten moments to choose just one!

When you tell him he is funny after asking about why he is caged and he gets that a very slight smile and sincerely says "Thank you".Image IPB


Warden: "What were you doing in that cage?"

Sten: "Sitting as you observed."

Warden: "Very Funny."

Sten: "Thank You.

Edit:Ack...

I disapprove too! Sten shouldn't be on the second page!!! Thank you my good ser for bringing it back up.:wizard:

Hmmm, I'd say one of my favorite moments (since Zjarcal is right there are just too many) is when you ask him about mages, and he says the story of the Ashkari that got stung by a bee.

After the story (Which was long, lol) you can say, "That's more words than I've heard you speak before." and he goes, "I've been saving them up." (might have the wording off)

Funny funny man the Sten is, hahahahhaha! :wub:

I posted a list a few pages back of great Sten moments. My current favourite (subject to change at the drop of a hat, lol) is when he tells you that when the qunari invade Ferelden he will not look to find you on the battlefield.

A more jocular one would be what he says when you find the urn of sacred ashes. I had Sten, Alistair and Leliana in my party on this occasion. Naturally Leliana and Alistair expressed awe. But then Sten just said "Congratulations! You found a wastebin!"

I just burst out laughing.

So true! I like how Sten sounds almost sad at the thought.

@Hilde: You get it if you take Wynne and Sten into the mages tower, it's a really great conversation I loved it! :D

While talking to Kolgrim:

Bob: ok ok, I get it, do this and we good.

Kolgrim: Yep.

Sten: <Facepalm> So we can help people worship a giant lizard?

Bob: but but!

Sten: It is stupid.

Bob: but...

Sten: no.

Bob: Sorry kolgrim I cant play today it seems.

<all the cultists die>

Oghren says: THINK OF THE GLORY WHEN WE KILL THE DRAGON!, than I'll leave you a wing!

LAWL! I never heard what Oghren said! I got the Sten dialogue though! Hahaha! Zevran's was kind of funny too.



I was too injured, too tired and so sick of being lost in the Haven dungeon I told Kolgrim I'd do whatever. I never put the blood in the ashes though, I just took what I needed and left.



OF course you still have to fight Kolgrim but this time it's way easier since there are only three of them.

Cool pic Zjarcal! Was that on purpose or an accident? I like it!



I can't wait for your entry! I hope other people add entries as well! I've been trying to think of one myself, but my drawing skills are...horrible, and my writing is lacking.



I think I might just throw together a stick drawing or something to contribute, lol!

"I miss the smells of Seheron, tea and incense and the sea."



This story is AU, because my Wardens story, having Zevran in Amaranthine is AU. I hope this is not too far off the prompt, but I loved the idea of travelling there later to see her friend. Image IPB

Travel...

Keiran and Zevran stood on the bow of the Tortage as she made her way through the swelling seas into Qunandar harbor. Sten’s last letter had come as a surprise. The letter she had received from him during her long months at Amaranthine, at Leliana’s assistance, had been received with great joy. She missed her large Qunari friend and was eager to see him once again.

Zevran, seeming to sense her sudden departure into nostalgia, wrapped his arms about her waist pulling her tight into his chest. There they stood embracing, embarking upon a new adventure together after their long and arduous months defending Vigils Keep. Zevran was still required to return to Antiva to settle his affairs with the crows, but after a long few years spent fighting they desired a little peace before necessity required more hardships.

As the ship settled into its moorings, their small traveling party readied to disembark, gathering their belongings they made a last sweep of the small cabin they had shared on the long journey. Keiran was still a little hesitant to visit Par Vollen, she was after all a mage and Sten had been painfully clear as to the Qun’s viewpoint on magic. She knew her friend would have told her hosts of her talents but after a lifetime of suspicion her thoughts often followed darker paths.

Hand in hand Zevran and Keiran made their way across the dock. Along the horizon of the city walls she spotted her friend, even amidst the sea of Qunari, both male and female, the latter causing her to gawk a little more than was perhaps respectable, Sten stood proud, the slightest smile passing his features as he spotted her in return.
As she neared their meeting place she noticed the fragrance that hung heavily in the sea air, spices mixed with something lighter and sweet; it was a fragrance she was unfamiliar with but instantly taken by.

Sten had spoken little of his homeland, and what he had there was always a sad lament behind, now she fully understood why, the air so beautifully fragranced was matched with spectacular color and architecture, the sky itself was a magnificent shade of orange.

He was exactly as she remembered. Stoic and meticulously dressed in what she assumed was a ceremonial Qunari armor, with Asala resting upon his back. She was certain her that today her usual boisterous greeting of her friend would be out of place, instead choosing to grasp his hands in hers.

“My friend! I am pleased to see you.” Keiran greeted warmly, an ecstatic smiling playing across her features.

“Kadan.” replied Sten in his usual subdued manner. Casually looking across to his left he added a flat, but formal “Elf”.

“Aha! My dear Sten, did you miss me?” teased Zevran as was customary between the two.

Keiran laughed as Sten responded without the humor she had come to adore in her friend.

“No.” muttered Sten.

Any further conversation was quickly halted as the pounding of padded feet raced their way across the planks to their position. Both Keiran and Zevran laughed as a toothy grin spread across Stens face as he observed their final companion for the voyage.

Tanis sped his way to their position, barking loudly in greeting to Sten. Coming to an abrupt rest before him, Tanis sat and grinned expectantly at Sten. Zevran pulled Keiran to him as they watched the two old friends exchange pleasantries. A slight giggle escaped Keiran as she noticed the treat Sten pulled from his armor for Tanis.
Standing and visibly pleased, Sten led their party further away from the ships.

“My brothers will show you to your lodgings. There has been a meal prepared for you. We have a few days until the Arishok wishes to speak with you of the blight. Until then, I am charged with your…amusement.” advised Sten as they walked.

Hiding another grin, she acknowledged his requests and instructions with a slight bow of her head.

As they neared what she guessed were Stens “brothers”, a few pulled him aside and the conversation became quietly urgent in manner, leaving Keiran momentarily uncomfortable. Her thoughts were cut short by Stens booming voice.

“Parshaara!” Stens voiced stopped all argument in an instant.

Keiran was shocked to see what passed as embarrassment on Sten’s face as he turned to face her.

“Kadan, did you receive my last letter?” asked Sten, the smallest flicker of hope lighting his eyes.

How could she have forgotten? Reaching into her pack she pulled out a small wrapped package and handed it over to Sten. The wonder in the faces of Sten’s brothers as they crowed around to get a glimpse of and hopefully share in Sten’s treasure delighted Keiran and Zevran. Allowing each brother a small piece the large formidable Qunari reminded Keiran of children all over Fereldan enjoying this sweet and new confection.

Walking up near Sten, pulling at his arm to capture his attention, Keiran pointed to the crates being hauled up behind them, the crates filled with every cookie she could find in Fereldan.

Lovely entry Hilde! I wonder how long the cookie supply will last. Sten might get grumpy once it's finished...


Ok, here's my entry, a photomanip with a small description of the scenario as well as a conversation between my Warden and Sten. Obvious Seinfeld reference by the way.


-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


On the way to Seheron, Sten, the warden Dana (minus her lover Leliana who couldn't accompany them as she was called by the Grand Cleric), and her faithful mabari Scree, were ambushed by a horde of bandits. Despite their best efforts, the numbers were too high and they were knocked out unconscious. They eventually woke up in the middle of a lake in their underwear (though for some reason Dana's helmet wasn't robbed). The water was freezing, something that made Sten VERY uncomfortable...


Image IPB


Dana: Well... that was unexpected.


Sten: *sighs*


Dana: We better get back to the shore. Wanna make it a race?


Sten: No.


Dana: Fine, you're no fun. Scree, you wanna race?


Scree: *happy bark*


Sten: At least I'm glad the Bard isn't here.


Dana: What do you mean?


Sten: *looks down* She would have another reason to call me a softie...
