Tali has da black hair man!

Else I agree, I'm dying for bioware to make me a blonde to romance!
Though I'm worried I'll end up disappointed I have a whole little idea formed inh my mind what she would look like and be like already!

[Dutchess]

Yes, I'm all for more blonde ladies!

[Dormiglione]

Just my personal preference, i like red hair ladies more than blonde ladies.

[Yana Montana]

PLEASE.



I love brunettes and redheads, but seriously there is a lack of strong warrior blonde women with an attitude in Bioware games.

Yes. =.=

I'm all for a blond female companion. Just as long as her character isn't entirely about how she's not a dumb blonde, and as long as her eyes are blue and her eyebrows blond.

I actually like dark eyebrows with blonde hair.

To each his or her own.

But I just find it... "ew," for lack of a better word, to look at brown eyes/brows, coupled with blond hair. Particularly on females.

Why is it "ew" inducing?

Well, (getting a little off-topic here) I just find it looks dirty, having blond hair, when the hair has clearly been dyed. It's at it's most unappealing, when the blond and brunette are meshed together. It basically looks fake (or is fake), and I find that off-putting.

It makes me (morally) sick to my stomach, how in real life, soooo many people (especially caucasians) dye their hair blond. And if there's a character in a video game with the same thing (whether supposedly dyed or not), if feels like it's been dyed. I guess I find hair dye to be unclean and unnatural, and if someone looks dyed, they feel unclean/unnatural. Unnatural in both physical, and personality.

I want a blonde character/companion to feel natural, not made up. The best thing about BioWare's games, is that characters often feel realistic, rather than shallow and poorly written. The characters can reflect in the writers' own abilities, and BioWare is not subpar.

So if a character chooses to dye her hair, she becomes shallow and poorly written?

Well, okay I guess.

You're reading too much into it. She basically becomes unattractive, to/for me.

Her character is how I choose to perceive it to be, and darker eyebrows and brown eyes make me perceive her negatively.

It is a known fact that the best 'blonde lady' Bioware has ever created is Queen Anora!

Also, while we're at it - blonde ladies are great, but together with them I'd also like to see a greater number of women of color (men, too).

This wasn't intended as a serious thread.

Yes, I'd also prefer more characters of color in Dragon Age.

[ianvillan]

In the DA2 demo I think Cassandra was also blonde.

Same, but I would appreciate the fact that the option is there.

Also, as far as someone posting earlier about hair color:
Drow hair color is never blonde. Canonically so. Viconia's was MAYBE platinum-blonde, but even then, I'd consider it silver/white, as is the common conventional name for that color for drow.

Jaheira and Aerie were blonde, straight up. Their appearance was defined by their portrait, not their in-game models. Why do I say this? Look at Minsc. Everyone knows he's a bald Rashemi berzerker with a purple tattoo and Boo. But his in-game model had him with flowing brown hair. Which was wrong. It was a limitation on the in-game models that prevented them from making every character match their portrait. To wit that the portraits were "correct", Minsc's BG2 portrait actually showed him holding Boo.

Jaheira and Aerie were blonde. Dirty blonde, but blonde. Who had brown hair for comparison? Why, our local spoiled-brat royalty companion, Nalia!

EDIT: In looking back at Viconia's hair color now, I can see the small splashes of blonde. Don't really get what that's about, it makes no sense from all sides. But, the majority of her shown hair is white/silver, so that's how I'm classifying it. The blonde patches are a mistake. Maybe it's just singed hair. From all the almost-burned-at-a-stake stuff.

Blonde? First Bioware would have to get over the fear that everyone would call her a stupid/dumb and accuse her of lacking substance (Anora), and then beware of the Feminist culture if she has a big rack or expresses some sexuality (Isabela). but i digress, Blondes would be WONDERFUL about as wonderful as an attractive black male, who isnt overly buff.

First, of all the complaints people have about Anora, I haven't seen any of them relate to her hair color; second, almost every BioWare character has the same exact model, and the men are always buff. Eamon is just as buff as Alistair. Naked crazed templar in the dungeons is as ripped as Sten. 

Ohh!!!!, they relate! and most people know why,however, in lue of some sort of argument i wont say why. 

the attractive part of the last statement still stands.

Why does the OP say EA dislikes blondes when half these games were made before the bioware/EA merger? Get your filthy EA hands off my Bastila!

EA's evil warps the space/time continuum.

I know we have had this dicussion before, but one more time I would like to add that blond hair + dark (completely black) eyebrows is completely normal in scandinavia. 6/10 people I know have it.Naturally. Uncoloured and all that,

Edit. In fact my unnatural meter pings with non-dark eyebrows. That is rare. I have only ever seen that on one and she had completely whitish hair natural.

Hope they're open to polygamy.

[Reikilea]

Well all the male LI´s are blond - Anders, Alistair, Zevran, Fenris. Actually I want them to stand blonde. I don´t want something hairy that will ends up looking as Hawke´s beard.

Dark haired girls are just for balance. We can´t have them all blond. That would be racist. And you had a redhead. Be happy for that.

I never thought of Fenris as being blond, his hair looks like bleached grey to me. Alistair is reddish blond, but I don't understand his dark eyebrows and beard... It looks odd.

I wish we could change the looks of our npcs, using the character creator, just like we do for our pcs.

[Wulfram]

How about some bald ladies?

What?

No.  Nalia is a redhead, like almost all   Female rogues in  the old  Bioware games.

lol  Small splashes of blonde:



Her hair is white.  if people are going to call Fenris a Blonde, then we'll call Viconia blonde too, since her hair color is the same.

I prefer black hair, but a little variety would be nice.

Most of the female companions/LIs have dark hair.
Most of the male companions and all male LIs have pale hair.
Most of the Ferelden royalty are blonde. Possibly all, I can't remember Rowan's hair colour.

This explains your dislike of dark eyebrows, but not dark eyes. What does having brown eyes paired with blonde hair have to do with looking 'unclean' or  'unnatural'?
