Now, I sincerely think the Last Supper argument is entirely ridiculous, but you somewhat have a point about companions, though we have not had a companion necessarily betray us personally. Most times, they leave and never come back. You could argue Anders as a betrayal though, I suppose.

I think they used the imagery on purpose, because as someone pointed out, it's popular and iconic. However, I agree that's probably faux symbolism and shouldn't be read into too much. I do know a little about the disciples, since I grew up in an environment that encouraged it, and I don't think there was a lot of thought put into character placement in the picture. Like muse said, it's probably more to do with who they wanted where and who they were finished with.

As for who's in Judas' place, it's actually complicated. The most well known last supper painting has someone ( I think Simon Peter) leaning over Judas. So the answer is different depending on whether you're looking at head or headquarters. However, Cole is one of the possible options, as I recall.

Just...take it all with a few grains of salt, everyone.

Cullen Time!

 

[Lady Artifice]

Here might be something fun.

If Cullen was food, what kind of dish would he be?

If Cullen was weather, what type would he be?

If Cullen was a cocktail (or wine or beer) what would that be?

And...

If Cullen was an animal OTHER than a lion...Etc.

Dorky perhaps, but if you feel like it, go for it.

No, he's not.  In the original Last Supper painting, Judas was the fifth from the left, in fact.  The fellow in the Last Supper painting who's 4th from the left is Peter, and he's perhaps the most loyal of the disciples.

 

Except for that whole, betraying Jesus by denouncing him three times (which Jesus also predicted would happen during the Last Supper), which for some reason, everyone in the gang was completely cool about afterwards? Sure, it's not in the same league as handing him over to the Romans, but doesn't that still count as a betrayal of their friendship? It always struck me as odd that no-one ever called him on it?

 

Anyway, for the same to apply in-game and the Last Supper theory to work, we need one companion to betray us to the Elder One, while the other has to violate the Bro-Code!

Yeah and then he got to be Pope, right? Lucky. I'd be a great Pope.

There weren't Popes quite at that point in time.

[Potato Cat]

Yeah, but I'd get the Popemobile and the sexy hat these days, right? Can I still call crusades? I have a few places I want to crusade against.

[Ryriena]

Actually, he hanged himself according too gnostic text.

[R2s Muse]

LOL you are cracking me up!

[Lady Artifice]

By all means, crusade away.

I don't know about the hat though. To find one THAT sexy, you might have to talk to a few Ferelden mages.

removed something but yeah the pope could be from Orlais

[R2s Muse]

Oh I bet they've got nothin' on Orlesian hats, man.

[R2s Muse]

Yeah and help the Nazis escape too with your peoples blesing as well, covering up **** ton of pedos, and killers in the name of freedom religion.

Um, can we not go there, please?

[Ryriena]

I went a little bit far with that one so go do the holy wars again.

[Sifr]

Does anyone else find it amusing that the most loyal disciple became the first Pope, who's other title is the Bishop of Rome?

 

[Ryriena]

Um, can we not go there, please?

will edit went a little far with the history nerd.

[R2s Muse]

So I've continued to be the world's worst ruler in Serault. I went broke this morning. This evening my people are in revolt. :/

Ha, that'll teach them for refusing to take my Scottish money!

And I think it's mostly a power thing. Ferelden mages look batshit crazy in their hats. Ol' Popey doesn't. Especially Francis-senpai!

Ooh that reminds me, I need a Pope name! I don't want a stupid Pope name like Urban or Pius. Or really ironic like Innocent and then go around doing loads of dodgy stuff. We're pretty far into the Leos, right? So starsign names are up for grabs? I'd go for Pope Virgo, but I don't want to be known as the Virgin Pope! That'd be so embarrassing. And just look at the Virgin Queen, Big Bess, she's like my least favourite Queen. Pope Aquarius would be cool, but I kinda want at least one X in my name, just for the cool factor.

I'll give this a go. 

 

Food: Pecan pie. It has a rich taste but not too overbearing. Plus it makes me think of holidays, and a home/family atmosphere. 

 

Weather: You know those rare occasions where it's raining but the sun is shining? He's a fighter and never gives up but there's a bit of sadness there as well due to all that he has seen. 

 

Drink: I don't drink soooo.....nothing comes to mind.   

 

Animal: German Shepherd. *rubs chin* Extremely loyal and intelligent. Doesn't back down from a challenge.

 

Annnnnnd I'm horrible with these.   

[Ryriena]

Yeah I found the Lost Court not very interesting to me.

[Lilaeth]

No, the new Pope has done away with the fancy costumes and the Popemobile - you might be able to just buy them off him! 

[Ryriena]

The new Pope actually seems like he is really trying to reform the church image so he is verily ok in my book, since he's done away with all the fancy things that came with being a pope.

[Lady Artifice]

Okay, so they consider him the first Pope NOW, but...

Whatever. I say we all deserve a Popemobile.

It is the coolest form of transportation. So excited for my eventual reign.

This happened with me as well, my Freedom is at 8 and people are hating me for having been relatively benevolent until then, so now I'm forced to be a hard-arse to them to keep them in line, which is just making the hate me more!
