ahahahaha Fenris's angry face. I love it.

Calling it his "angry face" implies he's capable of other expressions. His was probably my favorite to draw so far. That or Kenley's profile growl. I guess I like drawing angry faces.

Is there a guide to have a rivalmance with Merril?

Don't help her with the Eluvian, tell her she's wrong about what she's doing (especially in dealing with demons), say that blood magic is dangerous... that should make it easy to get into rivalry territory.

Destroying the tomes in certain quest (which I don't think I got during my first run) also helps. Siding against mages in conversations should also net some rivalry.

Will the friendship increase if I give her gifts?

If you're already deep in rivalry territory, gifts apparently give rivalry points. Either way, you can give her gifts and not be too nice during the actual convo and probably get rivalry points.

If you're on the rival path, a gift will give rivalry.

Puppy love/doggy style? Sheer genius!

edit: And goodness, could Merrill look any more adorable in that shot?

Merrill just carries that adorable look by default. Even awkward Aveline in the back can't detract from it...

[Jorrkit]

I love her eyes, and the way she always looks cautiously on the verge of a smile.

I have a strange desire to nom her face.

My biggest impediment to role-playing with Merrill is that Merrill will say something adorable or serious, and I just imagine Lady Hawke leaning over and...

I'll just tell you this. Its incredibly easy to turn a friendship into a rivalry with a single decision in the middle of the game. Its heart breaking watching her beat herself up - but it pays off in the end with you stick with the rivalmance. But just like with Isabela, or Fenris, I'd rather shield them from the harm coming their way then let my friends get hurt... even if they hate me for it immediately afterwards. In the long run if they're truly Hawke's friend they'll understand why what went down was done.

...

Also in regards to Merrill's adorablity I'd like to break down and become a teenaged girl for a moment and say: "I want to have like a million of her babies".

Yeah... that's gonna be my main impediment when attempting to do the rivalmance...

I'm suddenly thinking that the magisters would have stayed in power a lot longer if they would have just tried to be a little adorable.

If you don't give her the mirror-fixing tool in act 2, do you still get the quest with the pride demon in act 3? How does that work, exactly?

You still will get that quest. It'll work the same, except that the starting dialogue is different. She'll say that she needs to speak with the demon to find another way to fix the mirror.

It didn't work so well for the elves.

I'm still not sure I believe the demon. It told Marethari that it would jump out and possess Merrill so that Marethari would free the demon. There's no reason to suggest that a demon--bound to the statue, not the mirror (which isn't even there)--could leap out. The mirror is from Ferelden, it has nothing to do with the demon in the statue.

Certainly that's a possibility. At the same time though, it can be safely said that demons don't really help people out of goodness of their heart and look after their own interests first and foremost. As such, it's rather given that there was something beneficial for the demon either in the act of fixing the mirror itself, or in whathever it was that the demon was planning to extort from Merrill in exchange for the help in fixing it.

And how many times has Hawke said, "I'm going to do something stupid and horribly dangerous. Come along and help me?"

How many times that happens depends entirely on the Hawke you're playing. The argument pretty much falls apart if you don't.

Also, not all things horribly stuping and dangerous are equally stupid and dangerous. While the game fails to actually show it when push comes to shove, an unleashed pride demon is supposed to be on top of the danger scale, to the point where lore states how "a greater pride demon brought across the Veil would threaten the entire world". Out of all examples you give only one in on the equal scale, and it's entirely optional.

Andrastrian #1: We must topple the Magisters! They're an oppressive peoples.
Andrastrian #2: But - but they're not that bad. Look I was held captive for 3 years for political dissent-
Andrastrian #1: AND TORTURED!
Andrastrian #2: - by feather tickling.
Andrastrian #3: They made me play musical chairs. It was just me and the interrogator with one chair.
Andrastrian #1: They gave my Father a whipping with a stretch of licorice! Then pelted my mother with pillows!
Andrastrian #4: Everyone scatter... they've UNLEASHED THE KITTENS!
Everyone: D'aww.

It's available in my DA2 project.

Hi. I need a little help with something for a fanfic. Does anyone have any full length screenshots of Merrill in her default outfit.

[Rykoth]

IMO, a true friend/love of Merrill would rival her. Mostly because I see rivaling her more as trying to keep her safe. And being nice to her.

"Don't thank me" is what I would normally say as a friend to someone who I did a favor for. That nets rivalry with Merrill.

well but you cannot say that friendly-love towards Merrill Hawke type doesn't care about her safety or happiness -more to that he loves her so much he doesn't want to hurt her feelings even a bit
