What exactly is all that fleshy crap growing inside the circle tower on the walls?  I wish I could poke it with my sword and pop it off.

[Damotta]

OH my gosh! I totally agree! Where does that crude come from? It was so gross. I don't understand how a building grows Fleshy Organ like appendages.

[Sheryl Chee]

One of the mages was trying to find the solution to world hunger by growing sausage-meat on the walls. You didn't get that codex entry? Hm.

[David Gaider]

That stuff isn't normally there. We could've added a codex entry for "Demonic Fleshy Crap", though, I suppose.

I feel really bad for the templars and apprentices who have to clean that stuff up. Maybe that's why when I went back weeks and months later, it was never gone. Somebody'd have to have me at swordpoint before I cleaned it up.

They'd probably just get the Tranquil to do it. It's not like they could actually be grossed out by that stuff anyway.

There should be a quest where you wrap sten up in a cacoon of that stuff and when he comes out he has a smile and a personality.

Oh god, now I'm thinking about whether the Tranquil have sex again.  With demonic fleshy crap.

This wins.

The smells must be.... unimaginably bad.

Sausage Meat? Then there should be an epic quest to retrieve hot dog buns from deep within Orzammar...

The demonic fleshy crap cliché has been overused to death in games like this... I was hoping for a different kind of demon for once ;-)

Would that be the scientific name for it?   It does look a little like latin to me.

[Flamin Jesus]

That's a problem best solved with a flamethrower, though yes, we need a Codex Entry on "Demonic Fleshy Crap".

They really dont seem to mind.  Going back after a bit finds you some apprentices sitting in the lower barracks around all the murder; corpses still lying feet away, but no...there just fine sitting there all calm n everything...and they werent even tranquil.

That Dwarven girl you can add to the Circle also tells you how awesome everything is while standing knee-deep in the dead.

Don't forget collecting Codex Entires are worth experience points.

You know what the Demonic Fleshy Crap reminds me of though? Alien Vs. Predator. Not the movie, the game... Ever play the second one, the Marine missions? I swear, that shaved five years off my life... And when you run into it later in the game, I seriously thought to myself...

"Wait a minute... This isn't Alien VS. Predator, is it? .....Crap, am I playing a Marine Mission? Am I gonna- IS THAT A FACE HUGGER?! FLAMETHROWER, FLAME-... Oh... Trick of the eye- HOLY SONOVA CRAP, THAT THING IS HUGE!"

XP!! First thin I do on every playthrough is go and buy the belt that increases codex xp from 50 to 75. The belts is in Wonders of theadas in Denerim market and its super cheap and MORE than worth it.

Maybe we should also point out that you can read them, they don't just pop up as a message, they are in a section of the journal.

Lovely point my friend.  Having read at least half of the games Codex Entires, and having collected at least 85% of them, I had totally forgotten about this aspect of the Codex's.  Unfortunately, I tend to believe most people wouldn't find that entertaining, though I hope the gaming crowd is one of the few where a majority WOULD care to read that stuff.  Sadly, I'm often proven wrong on this point...  (See: The Cool Mass Effect journal stuff about the FTL Drive and the Races and stuff...  I read ALL of that.  Sci-Fi, ftw...  After Fantasy.  ^^)

What could that demonic fleshy crap be? I couldn't be something from the rage demons as they're firey and just blow stuff up. We know the sloth demon seems to feed off bodies somehow. Maybe they're like a metaphysical spider and inject your spirit with demonic goo that causes your bones and internal organs to break down? 

Then a desire abomination pretend they're shopping by stealing all the clothes.

No one reads that crap. We also all hit Esc whenever an NPC starts talking.

If it not XP, loot, or a sex scene, it doesn't matter.

Heh, you gotta read it to prove your awesome nerd geekskills in these quaint little forums of ours, so it's a given for me.

Nothing like a nerd-takedown on an imaginary subject.

Maybe the Codex should have been printed on pages of the Playboy.

Really, everything should be printed over tasteful pictures of scantily clad ladies of affordable affection, would get me to finally read that boring ORDB-book.

And various menfolk in nothing but their briefs. Really, I bet people would be scrambling to read codex entries then.
