I'm off to Sicily in August. Plan was to climb Mount Etna. Not sure it's going to happen in my current condition
You might pop the sprog half way up a mountain!
My family is from 2 hours north of Sicily. My mother and my aunt are planning a trip there next year.
NO NO NO. You take it easy.
I'm thinking it may be scaled down to "taking wistful photographs from the bottom"

Oooof can you imagine?
certainly hope not, I'll only be 5-ish months in, but eek!
My grandmother was from Sicily,beautiful place!

I've wanted to go for years, we're staying in Palermo for a couple of weeks, super excited!
Well Char, if you have a good imagination you can picture yourself climbing the mountain. :3
I'm due late September and am seriously suffering. Fat, Cranky, Hot, I understand it all : (
I can't contribute to the Kate Bush discussion but I have a cat named Esmerelda? 8D haha
I plan on romancing Cullen with my main canon, female elf mage, Nyx Lavellan (don't know if I spelled Lavellan right don't judge me) And Dorian will be her best friend/wingman
Dorian and Cullen's friendship/rivalry shall be interesting

Nyx ... Do you read Kresley Cole books, then? Her "Immortals After Dark" series is amazing.

"Pop the sprog" just may be my new favorite expression!
I'm naming one of my Inquisitors Esmerelda.
In fact, I might need to name my Inquisitor *Sprog* or maybe *Sprog the Defiler* . ![]()
Edit: Disturbing thought of Cullen whispering "Oh *Sprog*, how I adore you!".
I'm naming one of my Inquisitors Esmerelda.
I love that name. I approve :3
Do you know what race she will be ?
I have names in mind for my Quizzy and I am really considering romancing Cullen. What have you all done to me?
Ah, right. Sometimes I forget about the expectations management. Let me fix it: Cullen is a surname, and his actual name is Edward, he's been lying awake every night for 10 years, longing for you (even before he met you, because he saw you once upon in a dream, and now he's imprinted to you!). He's creeping into your bedroom at night to decorate it with emo poetry. He hates every other party member, and in the end of the game he will demand that you kill Cole, Solas, Dorian. and Vivienne or you won't get the achievement for romancing him. He sings Justin Bieber's songs in bed. He hates cats and dogs, and calls them abominations. He killed Kenny.Ok, now I'm ready for this game!
You mean you don't find this sort of thing hopelessly romantic...? ![]()
Also, funny you all should mention the lovely Kate Bush... I've actually seriously been contemplating trying to model my Lady Mage Inquisitor's face after hers. Though i doubt Bioware will give me the option of having fantastically massive hair. Unfortunately.
yeah it's problematic for the PC... But Alistair apparently never took enough to become addicted, so that could be the hand wave for Warden and Hawke. No curling in corners required.If Alistair needed the lyrium for his Templar abilities, then the Warden would too, as would Hawke, so that would mean the reason they are missing is that they are off somewhere curled in a ball, drooling, because someone forgot to get their supplies. That aspect of the lore never did get properly addressed in game.

Aw, I LIKE Alistair! He's so sweet i think I get cavities.
I'm going to be 8tracking the Hell out of Cullen this October/November after I finish the game to ease my DAI withdrawal, but I'm trying to keep a relatively clean slate on songs until I actually play through the romance. (Cullen/Amell on the other hand... I wouldn't just have the one playlist on that subject uploaded by now if I could just finish more of my non-Cullen playlists and not look as single-minded.) I couldn't help thinking this one would be pretty good for an apostate or Dalish mage Inquisitor, though:
Have her here actually. Some of us have lots of Inquisitors planned out.I love that name. I approve :3

Third Quizzy time, (she's just ten times easier to make than my second playthrough, my qunari)
I'm assuming a Circle background here
StatsSelf
- Name ~ Esmeralda Trevelyan
- Sex ~ Female
- Race ~ Human
- Class ~ Mage
- Weapon ~ Staff/Sword
- Spec ~ Knight Enchanter? (May depend on how 'evil' necromancer is and if I make my qunari a Rift Mage)
- Personality ~ Serious, uncompromising and highly ambitious, Esmeralda made quite a reputation for herself in her old Circle as a staunch Libertarian and gladly accepted the chance of freedom when the Mage-Templar War broke out with little concern for any opposing views. Though an idealist to the end, she's not afraid of getting her hands dirty to secure freedom for mages from Chantry and Circle rule.
- Appearance ~ Dark skin, dark hair, strikingly green eyes.
- Usual Company ~ Iron Bull, DHMG, Vivienne, (or if she's not a LI, maybe Cole)
- Love Interest ~ Vivienne (I still have some hope. But failing that, Cassandra, and failing that, Scribbles)
- Rival/Enemy ~ Possibly anyone who's particularly pro-Chantry, or pro-elf
She looks lovely~! I really want a Vivienne romance too so I hope with you ![]()
So, do you think something exciting will happen today?
The advisors were, after all, in the "Meet the heroes" picture ![]()
Expectation management: Leliana? ![]()

Here's the thing...I would be so excited to see Leliana, because that would mean that Cullen is not far behind. Right? ![]()

I still think Scribbles, (and Lola's 'trollololol, I already knew her name!' (
)), will be first. But on Thursday and Friday. Unless they decide the adivsors aren't important enough for two whole days worth of information and they only give us one day of each. Then maybe we'll get a Scribbles Wednesday, Leliana Thursday and Cullen Friday.
That's too good to happen. *_*
Good morning my fellow Cullenites! I have a favor request. If anything new drops today, would someone PM either the link to the pertinents (like the post so I can go directly there), or a summary? I'm going to be out of house for 12 hours today, and I has no smart phone... I still have one of those little phones you can drop from 3 stories and it'll survive lol. Iiiitttttt doesn't have internetz. ![]()
Anyway, (gets down on knees), plllleeeeeeaaaaassssse?

Cullen Friday is my kind of Friday!
Just a little heads up for anyone here that wanted the PC Inquisitors edition in the UK. It's now available to pre-order on Gamestops website.
So, I'm re-playing DA2 because I'm a masochist, and love torturing myself. I always get this amazing mental image of Aveline chasing Anders around with a giant sign that says "DON'T!", per Varric's suggestion. Does anyone else ever get that brain image?
