So I've been thinking about the nightmare argument scene with Sera. One of the other reasons I like it is because I can't help but be reminded of the episode of 'The L Word' where Carmen yells at Shane about what she did in her dream. "You turned into a bird Shane!! Then you flew away!!" Fortunately my Quizzy, or Honey Tongue as she's now called, is not in the s**thouse.

Will this do?

You don't think she's a natural blonde?

LMAO I KNEW that fade dream scene reminded me of something. Bless.


And thanks Snooks for scaring the thread.

Well I guess if it's OK to link to naked Varric, then it's OK to link to naked Sera, no?

 

Edit: For the avoidance of doubt, the above links are NSFW...

Lovely, although it always pisses me off to read abut families that won't be accepting. Grrr...

What's this? Is there a mod that "fixes" Sera's alleged "whitewashing"?

I actually thought her cookies on the roof scene was great accomplishment in this.

 

So is the scene where Sera admits she loves the Herald.

What whitewashing. She was perfectly white ever since the time we saw the first concept art of her.

The only thing they changed since is hair color, eyeliner, and... Hmm, I can't quite remember of any other change.

Yes, her default outfit. Shoes instead of boots, removal of archery glove... Have to say, I totally don't mind the changes in clothes.

There's some concept art in which she has darker skin... (bottom right here.)

 

[veeia]

Yeah, she did have darker skin in some concept art, and they decided not to go with that for whatever reason. I wouldn't call it whitewashing but I get why people were disappointed. Also "perfectly white" is some awkward phrasing, lmao. 

 

That mod's been around for awhile. I wouldn't install it but I don't really have any issues with it, shrug. 

[WildOrchid]

Prefer Sera how she is in canon.

Though i do admit, she looks stunning with dark skin in concept art.

Yeah, my wording's worthless half of the time. Thing is, I can't remember seeing any art where she'd be anything but white.

 

Y'know, I actually can't remember seeing an elf that isn't white (other than Inquisitor) since Origins. And even there, I only remember Adaia.

Strange...

Isn't Tallis white.

Another version...

 

It doesn't really bother me much about the mod. I just wasn't aware of it.

 

Actually looking at the concept art, is that some kind of collapsible bow? I have no clue how that would work but it would've been cool!

[Serza]

Isn't Tallis white.

 

Yes, Tallis is white. Which, considering it's pretty much Felicia Day, isn't surprising...

 

Thing is, I can't remember an elf other than Adaia (City Elf's mother) that wasn't white.

That goes. Hmm... are they sure this isn't just a tan?

[veeia]

Briala wasn't white in the book.  

 

(That charge of whitewashing I'm behind) 

[Serza]

Briala wasn't white in the book.

Whoa, really? I can't remember. I might want to re-read TME.

 

Can you find the quote quickly, or should I just go and read the entire of that book (Balls, that won't happen anytime soon, I got this English original of Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban I've been reading)?

[WildOrchid]

Yeah, a lot of ppl were saying Briala is dark skinned in the books. No idea why they went with white in the game.

That's kind of whitewashing.

 

On the other hand about Sera, tumblr has been screaming here and there about how Sera was "whitewashed", considering concept arts are just that: concept arts, not to mention she's also white in them if you see in these pics Uncle posted. 

[veeia]

I don't have any TME quotes on hand, sorry, and I'm on mobile so searching around is hard. I'll post later on that, bht I did just remember another elf with dark skin: Cillian (the Arcane Warrior) from MP.

[Fiery Phoenix]

It's not unusual for the games and books to contradict each other in one way or another. Although I thought the Mass Effect books were generally consistent with the games (and vice versa), there were certain things that weren't translated very well into the games. If I recall correctly, Kai Leng was one such issue, among other things that escape me at this time.

[Bowie Hawkins]

Indeed!

Sera's current squeeze...

Very pretty!

What bothers me about the mod is when people call it the "canon" Sera

The term dark skinned itself is vague, I've seen some shots of Briala in the game and she looks similar to my skin tone

 

Looks more like a lighting issue to me

[KaiserShep]

Seriously, that Sera concept looks like an elven Yolandi Visser from Die Antwoord.
