I wonder if there's any Kossith that aren't Qunari. I mean, of course there's some groups that stray away from the Qun after being involved with them, but I wonder if there are any who are just straight up born unaffiliated with them.

I assumed some of the Fog Warriors were kossith.

I want to say there were, though the main Qunari society just considers them Tal Vashoth. Maybe at least some of the Fog Warriors? The wikia doesn't say which race they are, just that politically they are neither Qunari nor Tevinter.

Edit: It says that Fenris learned of the Qun there, so even if they aren't politically aligned with the homeland, they still share the same religion.

Are they Tal-Vashoth? Or Tevinters rebelling against the Imperium? What are they fighting for, if they are fighting at all?


They're not Tal-Vashoth. They're people native to Seheron, fighting against both the Imperium and the Qunari. What they want is to free the island from the clutches of both empires.

Fex (quoted straight out of the Wiki):

The Fex is the sentient, native species of Par Vollen. They have inhabited the island since before the Qunari invasion. Very little is known about them, and they are seldom seen outside of Par Vollen.

Fog Warriors (according to David Gaider):

"They're not Tal-Vashoth. They're people native to Seheron, fighting against both the Imperium and the Qunari. What they want is to free the island from the clutches of both empires."

Wrong! The Fex are the natives of Par Vollen.

Seheron is not part of Par Vollen. It is a large island in the sea that separates Par Vollen from Tevinter.

Right! But could the Fex exist outside of Par Vollen? Not much is known about them. Though they aren't generally seen outside of Par Vollen, or so it says, I doubt many would travel to Seheron other than the Qunari. Par Vollen and Seheron are both Qunari territory.

Yeah, I made the possible connection a little while ago before I realised the islands are completely separate. Not that the lore can't be changed, mind.

Parts of Rivain are Qunari territory. Kirkwall used to be Qunari territory, in a past Age. That doesn't mean you'll get Fog Warriors in the Free Marches. ;)

I'm not sure I could properly do a tantrum. No practice as a child. My father had a rather direct way of dealing with such things. Let's see if I remember how it went. "Dry it up or I'll give you some thing to cry about."

By the way, thanks for the link to the Anime site. I have no idea what any of it says, but I love the art style, it is way to cool looking.

Well, true, but like... Seheron and Par Vollen are two places that people haven't really traveled to (yet). Perhaps it's not probable, but it could be possible. 

Luckily, my story took place in Par Vollen, not Seheron. So I kept the lore the same as far as the Fex goes (other than assuming what they looked like and stuff, but I was pretty vague on that too).

On an off-note, I think it would be cool if in Dragon Age 3, they made it so that you can help two of your party members get together or something.

That happened in Baldur's Gate II. (It was awesome - partly because of the characters involved.)

I want to join in the tantrum, but I unfortunately don't deserve to win. I ended up writing my story at work, the day the story was due...not my best effort. Still, really interested to read the top entries! It's cool the stories are being more widely circulated that originally intended, too.

Why is it when I see those horns that I think of a clothesline?

He does have nice body, but the skin tone does nothing for me.


Lurker revealed!


I just thought about a cute Strip. How one could be in a relationship with him and you are doing the laundry but running out of space on the rotary clothesline. You glance over to your beloved and in the next panel you see him running aroung with clothes over his horns.

Ah, what a nice thought. :o

Extra clothesline lets me overlook the skin color. And if not I just use lots of self tanning lotion.


But  a rotary clothesline is not Basalit-an.

However, I do like the idea of my wet knickers drying on the Arishok's horns. He is rather sexy. Still, we need that self tanning lotion.

DoTS/Blood Mage no Seisen goes live Feb 11, 2012.

OTOH, DoTS and Blood Mage could be 2 completely different movies. I'd be pleasantly surprised if they were!

I just saw the dev's post. Posted Image It's great to get news from BioWare, even if they aren't finished choosing the winners yet. And all of our stories have been read by the writers! I guess that means they enjoyed our work?

Dave has decided to read more of the entries, and the rest of us have been enlisted/volunteered to help out. Which means if you entered your work, at least one writer or editor here will have read it.


Ha! I knew he would come up with a suitably evil plan to extend the wait until the winners are revealed. Rereading all of the entries. classic Gaider.

Just saw the latest news about them reading all the entries! How exciting!

I need my fainting couch!

Congrats to all of us, that's pretty special we all got in on a read from at least one Bioware writer/editor. I feel like getting out a bottle of champagne!

Meravas.

And his voice, too. Hehe, be it German or English, I can't stop listening to this raspy voice.

Well, we have to admit, he was clearly splendidly staged. His first appearance in the first act was quite sublime. He should have just kept his mouth shut. Most of the time I wan't to shove my weapon into his mouth. What a bigoted race.

A relationship with him would consists of constant bickering and make-up weapon cleaning (as in sitting back to back, polishing the weapons, and since a Qunari would never say sorry he would probably hand her his cleaning cloth for her own weapon. After all, his sword is his Asala. Must be a great sign of respect... I think...)

Anyway....

They read all the entries, or the ones the deem good enough, right? Maybe there is a little chance of a word or two?

You know, all this time, and that's the first I've actually watched that video? As an aside, it's good to know that the guy in the green boxes recognizes and seems to enjoy how silly he looks. :P
