Oooh Chanda! News for you! Well sort of news, not really news at all actually, but still. I was playing Crusader Kings II the other day, and I wasn't really feeling properly serious so I splintered my saves off and started naming my Empress' children after Cullen thread peoples, or just representatives if I thought your names were too weird. I had Lola, (self-explanatory), Leia, (that's you R2), Kurt, (obvious), Aggie, (ag99).... The list goes on, my Empress is lustful so has many children. Anyway, one of my daughters turned out to be a dwarf so I'm like, CHANDA'S AVATAR'S A DWARF! So I name her Chanda. About twenty years later I start handing out titles to my children and I made Chanda Queen of France. Just two months later, she starts rebelling against me, takes my title and leaves as the bloody Duchess of Essex. And I'm fuming of course after I was so nice to all my children, so just laughed and watched as Empress Chanda I's empire just crumbled from losing independence wars.

Then of course I died and had to play as her....

Was I a pretty represenative? :P

You know I had a weird thought after reading a thread on dragon mounts. What if our Inquisitor fulfills some ancient prophecy. Maybe it has something to do with Dragons given all the motifs.

It would also explain why characters of different races where able to become the Inquisitor. It might be a little lame, but it could work maybe. What do you all think?

sorry if this has been brought up before.



Well in one of the concept arts there was a pic of a woman inq that kind of looked like she was tameing a dragon, to me she kind of look human... maybe an elf  perhaps, but I would assume that elfs would maybe have more  "power"  in tameing animals (specially  dalish) or maybe Qunari since they kind of resemble them,(dragons) idk im just spit balling here:P

What if we have to drink dragon blood in order to obtain the power we need to control the Inquisition and build an army? Isn't that how Kink Calenhad took over Ferelden?

I honestly can't remember what I named child you. All I remember is that I named two children after you because the first one got pneumonia and died and then I felt bad. :D

U know you kind of make a good point, If I recall right, in DAO in the sacred ashes quest you had the option to drink dragon blood (i think?) but even if you did I dont really recall of anything "glorious" happen to our warden .. so idk.. perhaps it would be possible with the right kind of magic I suppose

This game sounds amazing....:blink:

Yeah, there's a reason Steam says I've played more than 240 hours of it. :whistle: Sometimes, I'm just setting up intricate webs of marriages for certain titles and then assasinating family members who either pose a threat to me, or aren't useful at all, like my inbred children, (which, thanks to the desirable genetic traits in this game, happens more often than you would think).


Aww, you think of us as your useless, inbred children? :lol:<3 That game sounds bloody epic! I was snorting milk out of my nose reading about Empress Chanda...

Scr0ll, you're gorgeous. I never managed to make a good looking male in DAO, or a good looking female in DA2, so I'm really jealous of both you and moto. And Jessica is probably great at her job, but I still think it's weird that the bsn has nothing to do with the community. As a fan, I have more contact with the lead writer on the project and I find that strange. If she has no time for communicating with the fans, how does he?

Danny, I must admit I like that idea. There has to be something about Quizzy making him/her unique other than just surviving, and I haven't been able to think of anything better than that. Dragon mounts... I like it a lot.

Hey guys sorry to bother you with this but I kind of need some help.
What type of material do you guys think this coat is? is it leather or something else? Its kinda hard to determine from a pic
Image IPB

Now I tryed to model the clothes/ armor so far I only got to do the coat, belt, chest plate, and now im working on the boots and then will do everything else (click on link to view image) I only ask because when Im done with everything I just wanna get in the right detail for the coat

I think it is leather. :)

As much as I love that sassy hat, it's odd to see it in the DA universe. If you get it in Orlais, however...that makes sense. XD Still going to swear the hell out of that had.

I like the hat. DA has been too attached to "real" earth history. I want to see more fantasy-looking clothing, not medieval knock-offs. Show some creativity, DA art team! (which they finally are).

I mean you have a whole brand new world to play in; part of that is fashion.

Awww thanks Kurt (especially since I was blatantly fishing for compliments and being needy). I have a little crush on MMGs Elf too. :)

And you know what, I agree. I really miss having a community manager active on the forums. I miss Chris! Jessica started working right after the ME3 release, so I bet she got scared away. Hehe.

Ag99. Hm... Don't want to say too much here. :) But just looking at that specific picture and the bits hanging at the back down to his knees, I am wondering if the coat is lined or if it is so thin the light shines through? Looking at the beige Tabard texture it looks like flax or hemp? Could it be the same type of texture?

Hi all! Oh my, got to catch my breath again after all those pages with gifs XD Laughing counts as a workout, right...?

I think too that the coat is made of leather Ag99.

That game sounds both funny as hell as disturbing Elfman XD Too bad I already have waaaay too many hobbies/things to do for the amount of spare time...

I like that theory Danny. Perhaps the inquisitor survives the veil tearing because he/she has dragonblood? Hmm... sounds a bit too much like a skyrim ripoff, maybe....

I remember playing this old game called Oregon Trail or something when I was younger. I named one of the travelers after my brother, and the traveler died of dysentery. I felt so bad, but I still laughed.

That's not what I meant. (Although it does sounds cool.) I was talking about the Qunari interpretation of King Calenhad's rise to power. They said he drank the blood of a dragon, and gained a new strength that made him undefeatable in battle. That's what allowed him to conquer all of Ferelden.

Oh, I just realized that's what you said. :lol: LOL, silly me.

You unlock the Reaver ability in DAO after defiling the Urn of Sacred Ashes. It's supposed to make you stronger and more powerful. Maybe they'll make the ability more potent in Inquisition. And it might give us the ability to control dragons, like Alistair sorta did in the Silent Grove. I mean, he didn't control the dragon directly, but, according to Yavana, the dragon did not attack him because of the dragon blood in his veins. If dragons won't attack the Inquisitor after s/he drinks the blood, that makes it easier to control them.

I suspect that's because the dragon was intelligent enough to recognize that Alistair was the key to releasing its brethren, perhaps as a result of its link to Yavana.

Other dragons had no problem attacking Alistair in DAO, and it's not like he didn't have dragon blood then.

Yeah, the dragons in DA:O were illiterate. Clearly they didn't read the comics, LOL!

True. Alistair was attacked by dragons in DAO. I just thought it was one of those parts of the lore they had to ignore for the sake of gameplay. Kind of like how the Warden's companions never contracted the Taint even though they fought at the Warden's side against darkspawn for months.

Have you looked at those in game screen shots of Sassy pimp hat Inquisitor?  Maybe those can give you a few more clues. The hat ended up looking a little different to  me than I'd imagined from that image you posted from Cameron interview thingie.

On the flappy bits between his legs, I honestly thought it was more like linen or something rough and cloth-like, like that.

Thing is, though, this skirts awfully close to sentient dragons, which DG  has said explicitly do not exist. :blink: Gah, I hope they explain all the Yavana dragon stuff!

Didn't DG say something about not having dragon pets/mounts because he didn't like the idea, or whatever?

Oh, I didn't know Gaider said that. If it comes from Gaider, then it's the truth. Darn, I liked the idea of sentient dragons.

What I still find odd is that, even after Alistair killed Yavana, the dragon still didn't kill him. The dragon even saw Alistair kill her right in front of its eyes, yet it didn't attack.

Alistair: Going to eat me? ... I didn't think so.
