Lovely art! I look forward to the finished piece.

You're both wrong. It's but a pretender. There's only one Merrillcat, and that is most assuredly not her.
*strokes the real Merrillcat lovingly*

Which class do you guys think works better for a Merrillmance? Warrior or mage?
Warrior.
That's what I was expecting... I just love playing mages so much![]()

Hot on the heels of Varric's shirt, I have even more terrible news.
Someone has made Merrill "sexy."
I don't want to link to it, because it makes me feel dirty. But modded!Isabela seems to have taught Merrill how to frolic topless.
I'll let that stew in your brains for a little while.
I have nothing against nudity in and of itself. I'm fine with breasts in sex scenes. But tearing off Merrill's robes in normal gameplay, purely for titillation, does not sit well with me. Isabela's cleavage is awesome and in character. But Merrill's nipples are just too far.

I see Merrill as being isolated from the daily life of her clan. Given that an apostate Hawke would have to live in secrecy, always hiding herself, and spend time studying the arcane arts as well as learning the self-discipline or willpower needed to resist demons, she could easily relate to Merrill and find a number of similarities between them.
Which is not good in my eyes.
Merrill doesn't need someone who relates to being isolated but someone who's used to being knee-deep in the muck of normal life. Warrior Hawke is never tempted by blood magic, doesn't spend her nights pouring over arcane secrets, and doesn't worry about demons brainjacking her.
Yeah... I can't help but feel that warrior!Hawke's opinion is worthier than mage!Hawke's... somone who does have to deal with demons mindjacking her might be projecting some of her own wishful thinking onto Merrill when she says that Merrill's actually not evil and stupid. Warrior!Hawke is more objective.
At the same time, warrior!Hawke can't really understand in the same way that mage!Hawke can. Sure, she can say blood magic is fine, she never has to deal with any of the consequences.
I imagine I'll have a stronger idea in my head once I've played my mage more.

Just curious, but why do you think it took three years for Merrill and Hawke to get together? I know the story dictates, but I found it odd that it would have three years for Hawke to express his feelings to Merrill.

This was pretty prcise, thank you! I have had that critic with paragraphp before, my issue was just that people seemed to tell me that paragraph's were something else all the time.Blackout62 wrote...

You need to start a new paragraph with every change of speaker.
Example:
"Buy me a drink?" A creamy accent came from the door to his room, it
opened and he instantly recognized the uniform of the seekers. It wasn't
Cassandra though. "Huh, are you 'seeking' me again?" He asked back to
her. "What do you want? Your colleague already questioned me and I still
have no idea where the champion is." The red haired woman sat down in
front of him and tossed a small pouch of coins towards him. "You are a
merchant, yes? This is a deal you and I make, not you and the chantry."
Multiple times while reading I couldn't figure out who was speaking. It should read as:
"Buy me a drink?" A creamy accent came from the door to his room, it
opened and he instantly recognized the uniform of the seekers. It wasn't
Cassandra though.
"Huh, are you 'seeking' me again?" He asked back to

I'd understand if you don't go back through your previous chapters and fix this but doing so in later chapters will lead to the reader more easily comprehending the the shifts in dialogue.
I just looked up the file. I don't know what that guy was thinking but that doesn't look sexy at all. Also, her bust size seems a bit smaller than what her romance lingerie appeared to suggest. /creeper modeishmaeltheforsaken wrote...

That's because it's just the model of a more binding robe retextured to look like bare skin.

Bianca should have a talk with that guy.
