Yes, everyone deserve freedom, and freedom for all. The world is belong to everyone. Only narrow minded peoples say otherwise


Freedom at the cost of others? The blood mage should have freedom to slaughter whom he chooses for a blood sacrifice, because freedom?


What makes the mage better than the dozens of souls he puts at risk?


Mages and non Mages are families, if Mages are so bad, don't they have families? It is illogical that Mages in Tevinters are so bad because they can be children of non Mages and their children could be non Mages

It just can't be


This is nonsensical, Qistina. What does having children have to do with good or bad? Any pair of beings with a slot and a tab (or, put bluntly, a penis and a vagina) can have a child, can have a family. Further, segregating one's family self from one's "work self" or other some such is quite common.

Having a family does't make you moral.

If you refuse to fight Denarius, he will follow Denarius without a fight at all...so wtf with what he whining and boasting about all these time?


It's...hard to describe. Suffice to say that there are situations that can trap your mind far more than they trap your body. Or better described, trap your mind which then binds you in a more physical sense.

Few understand.

Heh if that rape thread is any indication I'd agree. I refuse to believe anyone could be this dense. Refuse.

We need something like this in Dragon Age Inquisition:

Memorandum

To my future self, the beast...

I don't know what divine joke the Maker has decided to incite upon me, but as each new day dawns I feel myself slipping futher in to...madness. It is a horrifying thing to feel one's mind slip away as the barrier between one's self and a demon vanishes. Knowing that soon my will shant be enough to dispell the terrors that plague me, I write this letter in the hopes that somebody will end my life before I have the chance to do the same. Not only do I write for others, but to myself...I know you will not understand reason, or even read this letter...but this is the last thing I can do in my final hours.

Remember...remember the days when you were younger. We never knew our home, nor our parents, and our heritage was lost the moment we were taken to the tower. Still, I lived a good life...I was dutiful and obdient; never failing in the lessons my masters taught me, but even then it wasn't enough. You and I both succumbed to emotion, and with our feelings out of control we couldn't handle our powers. We surrendered to our rage, our greed...our love of that damn templar.

Were we wrong? Were we wrong to only want to see her smiling face one last time? It was other mages who took her from us, and as she struck down her friends...they in turn ended her upon their honed edges. We...I...resorted to blood magic just one time. I consorted with demons, and now I pay the price for my insolence. Surely my masters would frown upon my final fate, but as an abomination...I doubt you care.

Other mages...they couldn't keep themselves away from this fate for quite as long, but now I'm starting to understand their anguish. As I can no longer remember events that passed only days ago. Beast; it is my wish that a blade pierces your heart so that others may find a brighter day.

And to the adventurer that destroys my new, grotesque form...I thank you. You would've released me from boundless torment...seeing the world around me, but only having the ability to turn it to ashes. I ask your forgiveness for bringing about chaos, and I fully accept the resposibilities thrust upon me. I ask you one last favor...kill them. Kill every mage...this may be odd coming from a mage, but we are not fit to control these powers given to us! Sever the demons connection the the real world and prevent harm from ever befalling another innocent.

Ah, one last note before I forget...my name. Forgetting one's name is a fate worse than death. My name is ------

Seriously though, we need mages who actually take responsibilty and respect their position. Everybody else is just like "I'm so oppressed! ARRRRRRRRGH!" *Explosion in to an abomination*
On another note, this letter is far from seriously written. I was just copying off the first post, so all of this is just me pretending to be dramatic while using a generic story at the same time.

I'll grant that a mage who's losing his mind might write something like this, but due to the need for mages to fight emissaries and prepare the Joining, I would not take an option to wipe out all mages even if I knew the alternative was a second Tevinter. (This probably won't even be offered, for just that reason.)

What if we wipe out the darkspawn then? Can we kill all mages after?

Once that's taken care of, Thedas will still need to stalemate the Tevinter Magisters, Qunari Saarebas, and the advanced Qunari technology. Even were that not an issue, I find it difficult to believe the threat is serious enough to merit that.

Huh...seriously? That's impressive considering I don't know a thing about mages or the lore behind them in the Dragon Age world.

Despite having two mages on your profile? That's impressive.

The trauma of in-game oppression was too much to bear, he chose to forget rather than live with the pain.

Yeah, I'm embarrassed to admit it...but I only really paid attention to detail when it came to the City Elf and their plight. I kinda...made mage profiles for a power test rather than a real look in to their story. Whoops.

But now I'm actually seriously focusing on mage lore so I can understand this conflict going on.

Wait, were you serious, or making fun of me? I'm less sure what with this post sounding more serious.

I'm serious. I never really cared for any other character aside from the one you see beside my posts, but my most recent profile was Thanatos Amell, and I'm actually paying attention this time around. To tell you the truth; I didn't care about any other story after I completed the game the first time around, but now I'm doing it right.

Huh.

The thing about needing mages to spice up the Joining isn't something you learn in that Origin, though. It's in Alistair's conversation options when you ask if the two of you can perform Joinings.

That part I didn't know, that's why I wrote that final request as one to kill all mages. I suppose now my final letter needs a revision...

Well I think Qistina is a reincarnation of Nizaris.

And of course everything about Fenris being a slave was A LIE!
I mean that's why Tevinter bounty Hunter attack him , and call him slave.
That's why Danarius call him slave , and try to buy him like he's a bag of potatoes.
Slave must be a pet name or something.


yes he is a "slave" not a slave if you know what i mean

if he's a slave what is his job before he get the tattoo?

answer me, what he do before he get the tattoo from Denarius?

He is Denarius "slave" not Denarius slave

I don't know what you mean , Qistina.
Fenris is born a slave.
he says to his sister "we played in our master courtyard."(when they were kids)
I really don't understand the difference between "slave" and slave.

If they are slaves, surely they are not "playing at our master courtyard"

I don't know the reality of slaves in America some time ago but i do watch Kunta Kinte and movies about black slaves in America...

Maybe slaves in Tevinter is different then

You can be a slave and be "well treated ".
Meaning have good food , have some leasure time ,and education....
Being a slave just means , you're not free , you're not your own , you are someone else 's property.

Many Roman slaves who were owned by some of the richer families of Rome, lead far better lives than many of the free citizens of Rome. They were of course still considered property, and their lives were worthless to the Romans, but at least they got a meal everyday and a bed to sleep in.

*struggles not to invoke Godwin's Law.*

I don't give a crap about the 'average Templar.' I don't care if they are doing 'what they think is right' or if they are just 'average Joe trying to make a living.' If they get in my way, they die.

Also not all slaves are "I'll whip you to death unless you make a massive statue of me!" variety. Some can be treated well and fed; however they are still belongings, property.

Fact still remains that mages in Thedas are dangerous. Plain and simple. Potentially or for certain, mages carry within them the power to level cities and destroy populations. Leaving a potential powderkeg like that unchecked and unpoliced just isn't a good idea, especially when the human factor leaves so much room for people to make bad choices. I can almost guarantee you that is how most people in Thedas (and probably many mages as well) feel about the circle issue.


Most people in the Andrastian kingdoms, you mean.


The Qunari say hello. 


Give the Dalish, the Chasind, the Avvar, and the Rivaini my regards.

and...Tevinter, Fog Warriors, Nevarra, Grey Wardens(Anderdfels), thousands of Old God worchipers(who are in every kingdom of Thedas), Dwarves

Sadly it seems some people really can be so dense. Willful blindness or just not caring about the consequenses for some individuals no arguements provided will ever convince them.
