So Tonia, I know David Gaider has said in the past that there isn't an official backstory on Cullen, other than the obvious stuff, Broken circle story, he's Fereldan, simple stuff from his .chr file. But if you start writing a character, Cullen or any other minor character in the game, as a writer, do you ever find yourself sorta auto-filling the background on them? How do you manage things like that when there's multiple writers working on the same storylines?

So much documentation. Before we start writing the actual dialogue, we write up the plan first, and pitch it to the other writers and various leads. That way, everyone has a good idea about the character and what is going on. Plus, we're all in the same office, so if one of us has to write someone else's character, we just go and kick the owner's chair until they tell us what we need to know.

Are there ever any power struggles over characters? I can't help but have this funny image of the writer's pit as dark, smoke-filled back room, every writer throwing craps for the juicy story lines. "Excellent! Serendipity!"

I always felt like they had a stack of characters and everybody sort of across a blue line and then David says go and they sort of charge at the pile of paper and battle over the character they want. In the end whoever is able to cross the blue line gets to work with that character:devil:

Oops my mistake. I so want your job...so so badly. 

Don't want to get you in trouble or anything but will we be getting another Mabari this time round? I just love Dog (I always name them Dog) 

I can't answer that one. Dog is a good name. I usually name my mabari Rufus. I have no idea why.

OK... here's a slightly random question for you all. Where do you think templars bathe? One big roman bath in the bowels of the Gallows or private baths (maybe just for the senior officers?)? Do you think they've magicked themselves running water yet? Warm water?

They wouldn't need to magic themselves running water as the Imperium figured out plumbing some time ago.

... I have no idea. Hm, Maybe they just take it in turns to bathe in those big wooden tubs like they used to waaaaaay back when. Hopefully they don't have to share bath water though. Urgh.

If they bathe at all. I'd assume either from a bowl or they sort of do that big tub that servants fill with water. If they don't than I'd assume in the nearest lake.

Ah, did they? Excellent! Given that the Gallows is an old Tevinter building, then sounds like they would. Thanks!

Did you see the concept art? Apparently it was from one of the PAX panels. Dunno if it's legit or not though.

LOL! That sounds like the cover of a dodgy romance novel... possibly one of Varrics.

I say a big roman bath area, I can't imagine private baths. Maybe the senior officers would have the private baths, and maybe everyone else shares a few tubs, but I can't see how that would be efficient.

Yes, I found it myself in the pax east footage this morning...  (after being pointed there by Avejajed) just past minute 4.0 It's legit in that it's Bioware. Dunno what it's showing us tho. Sure is purty.

 This is so awesome! Great job nikki!

Damn I wasn't on much yesterday and didn't see this or I would have sent you my pic too hehe.

I don't think it's too late! littlenikki said she could just keep making it longer... correct, my lady?

[R2s Muse]

Here we go. Skip forward to min 4, and you'll see the pics they showed. It was part of the "no, we're not going to recycle environments" part.

Didn't they show those at pax east? I'm vaguely recalling something like that. Let me find the video...

LIke around 4 min and after- I'm not entirely sure since I'm sitting at my garage sale and there's a guy looking at stuff so I don't want him to think I'm being weird. But I think they show it.
