First of all, shemlen isn't really an insult. It's just the elven word for human. Shem is probably an insult, but to be fair to the City Elves, they get called knife ears, their weddings ruined and bridesmaids raped and killed. And the elves who are racist have a right to be. Shianni especially. Need I remind people that the elves are a dying race because of their contact with humans.

I doubt Merrill hates humans. I'm hoping for a bit of Romeo + Juliet, I'm an elf, you're a human, we can't be together, stuff, but most of that's just practical if you think about it. Plus she seems happy enough to see Hawke and Carver in that screenshot.

I'm also sort of expecting a Romeo + Juliet type of situation out of the love interest, not exactly ending in death but you know what I mean. Something with her being unsure about this culturaly what with the tensions between their two races.

And yeah, she seems nice enough from that video, she probably is able to tell pretty quickly whether a human is there to cause trouble or not.

Yeah I hope it doesn't end in death or some kind of Porphyria's Lover scenario, though Merrill's hair isn't long enough for THAT to happen. And I think there might be conflict with her being a blood mage and, judging from that one screenshot with FemHawke, her not seeing anything wrong with it.

In some ways if she actually IS I don't really think she's an all out blood mage in the traditional sense. The Dalish have very different ideals about magic afterall.

The Chantry's rules about malificarum are mostly just baseless assumptions based on the fact that the Tevinter Imperium abused them heavily when they controled most of Thedas.

There's no reason to say that with a dedicated mind and body, focus, and good intentions that all blood magic can't be good for anything.

I'm not saying being a blood mage is evil. I'm just worried Merrill doesn't know much about demons. With her short story and that bit of dialogue in the aforementioned screenshot. She might be tempted later by demons to bring back Arlathan or soemthing.

Right I wasn't saying that, I was just giving my opinion basically. I do kind of wonder if there will be some kind of quest where you  need ot help her with something like this. Perhaps get the First Enchanter of the circle to help her as well. I don't know.

I don't really see how Orsino could help. Especially if you side with the Templars. Then again, she might leave if you side with the Templars. Do we get to keep mages if we side with the Templars???

I seriously think her quest will be about that demon in the short story. Or what happens with the ritual. Or maybe they are the same thing. Ooooh *doo doo doos the Twilight Zone theme tune*

Orsino and Merrill?? Just becuase he's an elf doesn't mean he's Merrill's brother. And I read somewhere that Templars don't even dare taking Dalish mage children. Although are similarities........

[ViSeiRa]

Okay, armed with massive amounts of free time and patience I removed Merrill from the early concept art just using my mouse and photoshop's pen tool , I'm crazy I know, but I like the final result

No not Orsino and Merrill XD. I was agreeing with what you had previously stated.

It was imo the best concept art, though a lot more evil than the current version of Merrill:D

Could you please cut it out with the giantass quote pyramids?

LOL, what's a "giantass quote pyramids"?

Which is why I called it Evil Merrill 

[Dansayshi]

Oh wow.... so I heard about this char being 1 of the LI's, but she isnt for me. She looks far too childlike. Preying for mods which will make her look a little bit older.

[MasterSamson88]

I still don't understand the whole "she looks like a child argument".



I never got that feeling from the moment I saw her really.

[ViSeiRa]

I'll never get it either, let it be, Merrill-mance is for the elites

[ViSeiRa]

You guys have no idea how happy I am to see this at last, Merrill in the party  



Fighting a mature drake it seems, and she's under the effect of "Terrorize" I think, freakin' dragon will pay

I think that means she's casting it, and I believe it's the "horror" spell from the first game.

Nice find btw.  

[MasterSamson88]

Nice job with the pen tool there Viseira. That thing is my nemesis, I commend you. XD



Also it's cool to see her actually in the party for once.

Yeah, I just hit on Google, problem is the word can be used as a noun and as a verb, so it's either she's casting "Horror" or she's "Terrorized"

@MasterSamson88: Tell me about it, the pen tool is one of the most powerful and horrible tools in photoshop, but get it right and it pays off :-)

I can't decide if she's hot or scary. 

[ViSeiRa]

Just checked the talents thread, from the icon she's indeed casting Horror, so now we know she has the Entropy tree available.

Both?
