*sigh* There are lots of justifications for not taking the rivalry path. It depends on how you're RP'ing Hawke's motivations and your Hawke's perspectives on Merrill's work. 


Yes. Let's not be elitist about our squeeing over Merrill.

"It’s a Keeper’s job to remember, even the dangerous things."

"All spirits are dangerous. I understood that. I'm sorry that you didn't."

Yeah, Merril is lying. She might think she can handle the danger, but she knows it's dangerous.


Not really. Merrill knows the mirror was dangerous because it was tainted. But she fixed that when she learned blood magic. She knows that dealing with Audacity isn't entirely safe, but she also knows that he's been trapped for centuries, will continue to be trapped for centuries, can only be freed by a powerful spell -- one that we're unsure if she even knew --, and that she has no intention of freeing him anyway.

She knew the mirror shard was dangerous, but she removed the danger. She knows dealing with spirits -- especially demons -- is dangerous. But the trick to dealing with demons is playing them before they play you, and that's something she tries to tell Hawke whenever he deals with demons.

Yes, they can become evil queens of magical mirrors, but you're gonna have to explain that one to me. Is this supported in the Lore? I want to believe!


Sure..they just need to find a bunch of magical mirrors and annex them into their mirror queendom.

That's a lot to ... *insert Merrill-with-shades-pic* _reflect_ on. 

(Yeah, Merrill's totally the Horatio Caine of the DA universe.)

Never have been. I'm a firm believer of playing the game you want to play. I don't believe I have ever said that everyone has to play "my way," but I have been called mean-spirited and an imbecile for stating the reasons why I have taken the rivalry path.

I just find it exhausting having to go over the same arguments about Merrill's morality and Hawke's morality and the morality of Merrill's work -- when the morality's totally up to the PC to decide and RP, so it makes it all rather moot really.

That could be said about any decision, such as Mages/Templars or sparing/killing Anders. However, it doesn't mean that they can't or shouldn't be debated. That being said, however, there have been far too many Merrill vs. Marethari threads lately, and arguing it is getting rather tiresome.

Certainly. The issue is that depending on how you choose to play and RP, you can choose to put forward any of the arguments to support that choice, so we get endless permutations of arguments we're already well familiar with.

Anyway, I'm dragging this off-Merrill-topic, so...

Aww, she looks quite dapper. Probably would look good in a formal suit. Rawr.

You'd think differently if you'd ever tasted my squee fresh from the oven.

And then they can go back in time and bring back Feathers and Mordecai, right?

Please tell me more.:D

I used to squee more, before. Whenever I try more recently, it always comes out as 'Fus Ro Daaaaah!" It's the darnedest thing.

Uh, right. Relevance... relevance... Have a picture!

Yes.

They'll do other things...evil things.

They have to live up to the rep.

Like, um, go back in time and steal Andraste's granny pants and hang them outside Archon Hessarian's palace.

Merrill is one of those companions you both want to hug and slap
She is both cute and adorable and an idiot

I like how they did her and well... she is pretty beautiful as well :D

Oh, thank the Maker for that.

:o Oh, you must definitely be possessed by a desire demon and some sort of mischief demon. Couldn't they sell her granny pants, though? I'm sure that since they belong to Andraste, they would fetch a huge price. You should have an auction. W/ the proceeds, Merrill and Hawke can finance their plans for world domination. Merrill and Hawke, Queen of Mirrors!

Nein. She is teh leet smartypants, simpleton. Your perception must be -42.




And if you slapped Merrill, I'm pretty sure Hawke would temporarily convert to Blood Magism/Reaverism and totally do some crazy scary vengeful sh!t with your vein juice.

I agree. Merrill is not an idiot. And my Hawke's already a Reaver, so no conversion would be necessary if slap-revenge was in order. But who would be heartless enough to slap Merrill anyway?

She's just a bit naive.
