(Edit: I found a website that we could host it on... if any one is interested in using facecams and microphones and such. I would prefer we use a chatroom, but I wouldn't mind using this site.)


Awesome! I'm fine with either. Chatroom or video/mic. My laptop has a camera and built in microphone; it works pretty well on Skype.

I'll admit, I've never really played a pen and paper game before. But hells yea! That sounds like it would be a great way to cope with the agony of waiting for DAI!

We could even play other pen and paper games too, not just the Dragon Age one.


I think since I also have never played a pen and paper game, it would be easiest to play the DA one. Plus I just want to play in the Thedas world, AND flesh out my potential Inquisitor character!!! xD

Okay we would need at least one person with experience... any takers? =]

Wait... where do you find the rules for this game? Do you have to buy it? Is it like a board game? Or how does this even work??

I don't know. I've never played one before. Ermm... I think we would have to buy it. Or, maybe only one of us should buy it and then they can share the rules with the rest of us. Or... *sighs* I wish I had more experience with these sort of things.

This is getting too complicated for my tired brain T.T Hopefully LolaLei or one of the other people could help us with this, since they have more experience than we do.

I'd be interested in participating. I used to play quite a bit of pen and paper. The only hitch is I have an odd work schedule, so I may not be available when other people want to play.

Another possibility if people wanted to be more free-form and less rules-oriented (or didn't want to rely on us all being online at the same time) would be to do something written and forum-based. Just as a thought. 
Or heck, we could do both. ;)

Is it weird that I already have a character with a backstory, habits, clothing and personality?

So... the more I think about this idea, the more I like it. Anyone up for some interactive written pre-Inquisition character experimentation?

I wouldn't mind trying it out, but we'd need a little forum to write it in.

I really want to do it like they did in the video... in real time, chatting or video, so we can all have fun together xD However if you and Danny want to start one on a forum I can do that, too.

So who wants to do one in real time.... me, TBA, ag, Hannah??

Sorry to be so unCulleny lately everyone :unsure: Lola and friends' video session just got me all fired up :o:lol:

Yeah, I think real time would be fun! :) We have plenty of time before Inquisition; we could always do both.

I'm potentially in but as I mentioned, I work odd hours (after school to 11pm in EST) so I may not be available to play when normal people would want to do it. It'll just depend on the timing.

On a Cullen-related note, I decided to try a mage character in Origins to get in a little interaction with him, tried out all his pre-PTSD dialog options, and... he's such a sweetheart! I just want to snuggle him. 

"You can... um... come talk to me anytime you like." Aww! <3

Wow, the Dragon Age pen and paper game by Green Ronin? That's so cool! I love that game and have gotten to play way too little of it =)


It looked hella fun! I've been thinking about it all day. Now I really, really want to play a game like this lol For serious, anyone interested? Maybe we could play over skype. Or just in a chat room (don't have to have voice necessarily). It could be such a fan way to tide us over until DA:I.

Count me in :wizard:

Here's a Cullen-related discussion topic I've been thinking about this evening:

Say that all the barriers preventing Cullen from being with your Origins mage character somehow disappeared, and he was never traumatized by magic, and they were free to pursue a romance. Would they be compatible?

The answer for my recently created mage character would actually be no. That wasn't my intention - I was planning to inflict some unrequited true love on her - but sometimes characters develop in their own way. She genuinely likes him, so she would be on her best behavior with him and he probably hasn't seen her bad side, but I think her bad side would be things he'd be deeply uncomfortable with. She's blood magic curious, pretty thirsty for power, and has a ruthless streak that I think would go too far for him. He wouldn't know any of that, and I do think he'd have reason to remember her fondly, but ultimately if they'd gotten together I don't think it would have worked out.

Curious what anyone else thought about their mage characters? Would it have been true love with Cullen or a bad match?

Yes, just read about that a few hours ago. It is very sad. :(


I have seen many people compare his photo and Cullen's side by side; I think they really do look alike.

Oh my God I know. :crying: 

Whats even more odd for me is My sister in law and I were actually talking the other day at how he  sort of looked like Cullen.

Paul Walker had a 15 year old daughter. My sympathies to her and the Walker Family. :crying::crying:

I'm a noob at table-tops, but this would be very fun I think!

Kylan Amell sees Cullen's crush as a tool, mostly. She knows as Irving's apprentice as well as having a templar sweet on her, she can get away with things other mages cannot. Kylan actually hates templars; she was raped by one several times before Jowan brought it to Irving. So, having power over a templar gives her a thrill. I don't think a relationship would last long at all. Poor Cullen would have his heart ripped out (maybe literally). She has a need for constant control, and she will never - ever - fully trust him. I think it's best he's left with the memory of her facade. 

Cullen > Posted Image < Kylan

As for Florence Amell, she's my shy girl. However, she is also severly depressed. If Duncan had not recruited her, she most likely would have joined Uldred in his attempt to free the Circle from Chantry rule. She is such a private person and so shy, any sort of attention makes Florence nervous (this stems from first discovering her gift of magic - she had set a barn on fire, severely burning several people inside; the stares from the villagers still chill her). So, the templars constantly watching is like having a bug nipping away at the back of her skull. However, one templar's attention...one of admirance...comforts and scares her. A conversation between them - if you could call it that - is full of awkward silences, red faces, and stuttering.  I think if Cullen is patient enough, Florence could come around.

Just realized most of my Origin characters have very depressing stories.

I haven't been posting much, or basically at all lately, but just thought I'd log in to say I'm sorry to hear about Mr. Walker. I only saw him in Flags of our Fathers, without really knowing who that actor was, and it was this thread that made me aware of him. So - as very weird (but hopefully not inappropriate) as it sounds - this seems to be the place for me to express my sympathies.


Greetings to all Cullen fans.

Indeed, how terribly sad about Paul Walker. (and welcome new Cullenites!)

In memoriam, Paul Walker as Cullen (by thread OP Galagraphia).

When my husband told me yesterday while we were sitting on the couch that Paul Walker died, I actually said, "Are you f*cking kidding me?!" And I don't use swear words! At least not the F-bomb. So sad. I didn't care for the Fast and Furious franchise, but to me he was what my real life Cullen would have looked like. Like the image above.

My elf mage was totally oblivious to everything, but also waaaay to shy, introvert and actually depressed. The walls of the circle were really closing in on her (but becoming a grey warden did not give her the relief she expected). So, she would have been a bad match with Cullen.

My Amell liked flirting and was more outgoing. However, much more than flirting was not likely to happen: she was too afraid to get her heart broken, after some bad experiences in the past. That is why she was somehow attracted to Cullens attention: it was 'safe', as he was bound to his vows anyway. Perhaps she would have been able to fully trust him in the end. So maybe a match.
