Nice drawing Minaleth!



And oh joy! I get to go out in the field (leaving on Sunday) to Georgia.....with a 6 hour layover in the Denver airport.......now as long as I don't forget my external dive, I know I'm going to be doing!



Whoa, I think this thread is hitting the next 100 pages faster and faster!



I had posted earlier taht Selva had the Talsien encounter and turned down the earring. But my game crapped out and didn't save...but that's okay because I got to go through and do it all again! although for some reason this time, everyone by the PC dropped like a stone in the first moments of battles and she had to run up the stairs and let the Crows come at her one at a time. Took forever killing them all off one by one like that. I do love his happily "I'm with you until the ned. Or you get tired of me, or I die...or, you die..."



And at least with the replaying, Alistair didn't ninja-love my PC this time around. He's sitting comfy at +37 approval....right where he should be.



And now tonight, to go and ask Zev to the tent and get the 'thanks but no thanks from him'

Thanks to Zevran I have a lot of extra save files:

- Inviting him

- Massage talk

- Antivan Boots

- Dalish Gloves

- Pre-Taliesen

- Post-Taliesen

- Second Earring



I'm sure I've missed something. xD

yeah I wanna win Zev with my dalish chick... but how does the gift thing work?



I know you can get approve/disapprove with convo choices but... I'm afraid I won't get the gift right and lose the romance

 Here is the drawing... at least everyone is (almost) clothed.
Next one might contain dwarf sex. Or maybe not :P


Wow - you have some mad skilz, Minaleth!  Image IPB Love it - thanks!

Edit to add:  And great screenies, Ramante - thanks for sharing.  Image IPB

Click on the link in my sig.  Read point 5 through point 7.  Enjoy the most amazing romance moments in the game! 

Edit: There IS a risk that you mess up the romance, but most people don't hit that.  As long as you always let Zevran know you want him with you, you won't mess it up.

Second edit: You can read the entire FAQ.  IT's a little spoilerish, but I tried to leave out major details.  I want it to go well for people, but still keep it fresh.

holy crap I've never seen so many girls post in one thread O_o

if girls like Bi guys this much I might just start pretending XD

There are a few guys here as well.  Image IPB

The Zevran romance is very deep.  I think that's why there are lots of women here.  So, be deep.  It wouldn't hurt if you were as sexy as this, either.  Image IPB

This.  Needless to say.  Though if you sound like Antonio Banderas, feel freee to say anyway.

Cypher, you really don't need to give Zevran any gifts to get his approval up. It's possible to get him to 100% or near there without them.



Zevran and Sten are the only two characters I've been able to get to 100% without ever having to give gifts to. Weird that the rest of the party members need to be bought off. But then, maybe I'm not chatting them up correctly.

I feel oddly insulted by this statement. And I still concur with Reuben, it's thanks to Antonio Banderas.

So this whole gift thing is for kicks then? I'm freaked I'll lose out on some valuable convos or something due to Dog or Sten hating me or somethng  Image IPB



Oh and the Zev FAQ is awesome!

Hmmm, do you mean Zevran's gift to the Warden, or giving gifts to Zevran? My first answer assumed the former. With Zevran, in conversations, just be nice to him. Don't call him a murderer. Tell him you're happy he's with you. His approval will rise. His gifts are antivan boots, dalish gloves, and gold and silver bars.

Edit: grin just saw your post, and thank you!  Gifts for Zevran . . . I usually end up giving the bars to other party members, though of course he gets the gloves and boots.  His approval, if you make him feel welcome, jumps so much.  It's crazy but very sweet. 
But of course, if you're nervous, give him the bars too.  It just isn't really necessary with him.  And have fun!  Oh, and one warning.  His romance doesn't complete until quite late in the game.

Dog cannot hate you.

Sten is great and easy to talk to. Just make sure you take him across certain locations, you can get a lot of approval from his 'I want to discuss something you mentioned'. Those convos are quite long so you get approval a lot of times. The approvals are mostly low but you get it a lot.

Also with Sten, as soon he asks to stop talking, stop.  He hates to be pestered and you lose points.  You can always click on him immediately thereafter to start again.

Unfortunately I noticed to late that this party banter was going on, so only Shale's last response...
Image IPB

And how the banter was going:
Shale: So here is a question for the painted elf...
Zevran: Painted elf? Oh, that's me! I do like that.
Shale: Am I to understand correctly that the painted elf is a "crow"?
Zevran: Not literally, but... yes. I am a Crow.
Shale: As in a bird.
Zevran: Is there another sort?
Shale: So the painted elf assaults helpless statuary with its feces?
Zevran: If given sufficient cause, why not?
Shale: That is outrageous! The painted elf will stay away from me. Or else.
Zevran: (Sighs) I get a lot of that.

I loved that one - (well, I love most of them )- Not only the the final punch line, but also, "if given sufficient cause" . . . You start to wonder.  And then picture.  Image IPB

LOL, thanks for posting that, Ramante XD  I've been running around with Zevran and Shale, and they haven't gotten to that one yet. Image IPB

I wonder about the "sufficient cause", too. Image IPB

It is my favourite party banter between those two companions.
The way Shale says 'As in a bird.', I don't know how to call it but that voice... is just... xD

What I found really funny during my elven mage playthrough was that with the Zevran ambush a bird (a crow) was hopping right in front of his feet. During the Taliesen encounter a crow was hopping up the stairs, so I was more focused on that bird hopping up and down, then that I was listening to Taliesen. ^^'

Hey, I was trying to save the guy from thinking he had to start batting for both teams in order to get chicks.

I would take Zevran over Antonio any. day. of. the. week.  Jon Curry's voice is sexy, and sometimes the accent is cute (I love how he says "benevolent mark," for instance), but it's (i.e. the accent) really not the clincher.  For Alistair's, maybe.

Really?  Too funny - I saw the ravens hopping after Shale at Soldiers Peak & almost peed myself laughing at it.

Very much so. After that I was looking everywhere for the crows (the birds) and guess what - there is one at landsmeet as well. No screenies though. There might be even more.
And there is the mod that adds them anywhere... lol?

Every single time there's a Crow encounter there are crows around.  Every single time.  Makes me think, "Yes, I got it." 

Zevran's ambush--crows.
Taliesin's ambush--crows.
Ignacio's kidnapping mission--crows. 

So if you're wondering if there might be a Crow hunting you, just look around for crows.  If you don't see any, you're in the clear.

@Charsen: You are an evil tempter. I just rewarded myself for grading midterms by purchasing a new PC and DA:O for it--all because of your mods. It's your fault! If my husband appears on your doorstep requesting his wife back, I am not responsible. ;)


!!! the pressure !!! :unsure:

well, that is an awesome reward, actually. I finished taking & grading midterms yesterday, and my reward will be a chance to sit down and sink my teeth into zevmods. is it sad that i'm more excited about that than awakening?

....so... is your husband hot?
just kidding! ...*flee* 


Hot, why yes. :D (tall, dark hair, big blue eyes...and bi.  Yes, I totally lucked out.  You do not get to keep him!)  Actually, I need to hide the toolset from him because if he discovers it we will be wrestling for the new computer.  And I will lose.  He is a foot taller and a hundred pounds heavier than I am.  The only way to win a wrestling match is to use my very best big-eyed look, and I try to save those for really important things--like chocolate!
