Also, how do you think the CE introduces her companions to her father?  All this stuff left out (for understandable reasons I suppose).

More writing material for Jenovan!  Virginal CEM leaves the Alienage after his wedding to a hand-picked, parent-approved girl goes horribly wrong, returns battle-scarred with a bunch of strange companions:   

CEM:  "Hi, Dad.  I want you to meet my boyfriend.  He's an assassin." 
Dad:  *heart attack* 

:lol:

@Sabriana and others re: the Morrigan comic



I may be reading WAY too much into it (probably am), but I am wondering if Morrigan was sent by Flemmeth with the intention of her doing the ritual, but didn't know the full implications of the ritual until after she had Flemmeth's grimoire.



Wandering into the realm of pure speculation...I wonder if the god-child will become Flemmeth's new host or if Morrigan following through with the ritual will make her susceptible to Flemmeth taking over. That would certainly explain the "terrible" part.

Morrigan does tell the Warden that the Ritual is the reason Flemeth not only sent Morrigan with the Warden,  but saved the Warden and Alistair.

I should probably make a new topic for this, but . . .

The timeline is bothering me again for the game. If you play a mage, you learn that you have been away from the circle for nearly a year. If you're a DNM, you have a child in the time between your recruitment and returning to Orzammar. DC's sister has a child as well.  Even Zevran refers to the time he's been with you as "less than a year" which puts it in about the same timeline. All of that is fine and well EXCEPT:

City elf. The purge started after you killed Vaughn. This was ordered by Howe as his first act as Arl of Denerim. Except the guards in Ft. Drakon were laughing about how short a time he was actually arl (even assuming that the 10 days they said was a gross exaggeration). Was the Alienage really blocked off for nearly a year?

Ugh.

:lol:

I need a rofl icon SO BAD right now, you do not understand. :lol:  (At least whatsherface went home and there's none of THAT awkwardness, holy crap. ;D)
(Cyrion: Is that... are you wearing an earring?  
Alessar: Er. Yes.  About that....)

I thought the "rabbit" stew comment was hilarious, although it does show what kind of conditions they really live in, in there.  I do wonder how the companions take it, though. ;)  

The introductions-to-dad could be quiiiite interesting, indeed.  I particularly wonder how Cyrion would come to grips with his child romancing a human.  Not that he's ever seemed, y'know, violently anti-shem or anything, but yeah. Of course, the elven alternative is a foreign assassin... :whistle:  But given that the CE's mom seemed to be kind of a firecracker, maybe Cyrion could come to terms with that... somehow... XD

(channels Zevran)

"My dear Jenovan, while I am certain that Sresla would like to reveal how my little tête-à-tête with Morrigan plays out, I have convinced him that it is in both our best interersts that it remain, for now, a mystery. If I may take a moment to express my feelings about the woman however, I think it would be fair to say that the sentiment I expressed regarding Queen Anora and where I believe her place in this world should be extends to Morrigan as well."

(squee it's Zevran XD  and, ouch!)

And Creature calls me a tease!  I do hope for some more snippets from your story as time goes on ;D  Now I'm just intrigued :lol:

Oh, could you imagine reactions among the Dalish if you walk into your clan with Alistair(edit: or Leliana) on your arm and try to explain that you two are a pair?

I've actually written a scene that I was going to put into a oneshot about a Dalish elf with Alistair. Though I realize this is the wrong thread for that....

Zevran is so sexy. There, back on topic

:whistle:

Hehe. Must be interesting ^_^


Ooh, he is at that.. I just did the "Save, leave Zev at the gate for the lines, then reload and take him with me" trick... Oh, the look when you tell him that no matter what, you love him.... And how he replies is so heartbreaking...

Hooo, that would be interesting. :lol:  (Or Morrigan, if you're a male -- that could be even MORE interesting. XD)

Ughhh, yes. :(  One of the most heartbreaking looks/quotes from him in the game, I think.

(Although pretty much all of the ones when you break up with him at Love are very, very bad...)

Ooh, "Cruel to the end" is the hardest to hear, cause he looks so... devestated that you leave him behind....

Indeed.  My DE knew what she was getting into with Alistair.  The humans would all snicker about the king's elven ****, and the Dalish would say she was a keeper's daughter and a Dalish heroine yet gave herself to a shem.  I picture them kind of like Orthodox Jews, where marrying outside the clans literally threatens the survival of your kind.  Not a storybook ending, but all the more romantic for that in a way.

Then, as you guys have said, there's straight-laced Cyrion meeting Zevran!  I would have given lots of sovereigns to hear Zevran's thoughts when he came to the alienage with my CE character.  I kind of felt badly for him, seeing that my character at least had a family who loved her.  Not that he wouldn't be glad about that, and the return to the alienage makes it clear you can't go home again, as in so many of these origins.

How about the dwarves?  How do you introduce little brother Bhelen or Gorim to your elven lover?

Gorim, very regrettfully. I felt so bad for my Aeducan when she went to Denerim and found out Gorim was married.

Yeah, pretty  much once you leave your Origin 'home', you just can't go back... You've been through too much and become someone else, really.

heres something I just noticed

when you kill that werewolf who wanted you to give a scarf of hers to her husband, zevran gets this distressed look on his face and turns away as you murder knife her


My last playthrough, I took the quest, but deliberately avoided Danyla, and when the curse was removed and I went back to camp, her hubby set out to look for her.  I hoped with the curse lifted, she was human again, and he found her, and they lived happily ever after (at least that's what my mind played through)Image IPB

I love your screenies, Cuddle.





And that's Selene's playthrough finished... Only reason I don't mind sitting through something like 30 minutes of credits is hearing This is War by 30 Seconds to Mars.. Jared Leto's voice is amazing...



Then I get to do a NEW origin! Yay! NHF.. Now to figure out a name and how to NOT romance Alistair but still be friends.

Alright Zevranites... I am thinking of trying a few mods, at least Dialogue Tweaks. I have no idea where to start. Is there a For Dummies explanation on using mods? I mean, a For Colossal Dummies edition?

I'm afraid I'm of no help. I'm on a console. If one of the wonderful Computer players pops up, you can assuredly get help.


So, my HNF is made. Her name is Titian(note: spelled T-i-t-i-a-n :happy:), and she's gonna be a hellion.

Edit: Mind runs faster than fingers....missed words.

not really all mods should come with a readme atleast in their description or in the file itself on how to install them

it really is pretty simple

also download DAmodder it helps you install/uninstall mods easily

lol, Addai, welcome to the dark side XD Well, most of the mods have decent instructions with them, but I think the first place to start is um... Maybe DAModder? It's a mod management mod. ;D I don't use it, but I think others here do.

Edit: DAO Mod Manager, as CZ mentions, is here:
