The first time we saw da:i!Cullen move.
Feels like yesterday ![]()
First concept art we saw of him... hotly debated as to whether or not it was him:
Yup. But we were convinced!

- Culleny hair,check
- goatee, check
- Frowny eyebrows, check
- "I'm gonna fix this" determination, check

I suppose that goes well with the sexy librarian glasses! Like I said, I haven't decided if I love it or hate it. Some people say it makes me look older, which is like a kick in the gut.
Ooooh, haven't posted this one before - sad "I'm afraid of losing my boo" Cullen:
Wait...LOL....Cullen's pet nickname for your character is, "Boo?"
HA! With the subtitle there you could almost imagine her saying it. "Commander!" Sorta like a Bond Girl - "Oh, James!"
I never did understand the whole "black hair" thing. I love the vanilla CC black hair - it reacts just like mine irl. It can range from raven's wing to dark chocolate brown to red depending on lighting.
I have a horribly drab shade of light brown hair irl, and have always wanted black hair but never dyed it because I don't have the skin shade for it. So it drove me nuts to see it shift from black to medium brown, especially in the romance scenes (though apparently the shift is a lot more noticeable on my game than some others.) I know some people's hair shift color, but I never remember my father or my ex's hair looking even dark brown. If there were two options for black hair and one shifted and the other didn't, I wouldn't have a problem with it. As it is, I'm now giving my newer IQs dark grey, white, and red hair instead, sigh. Of course, some of it is simply my stubborn side being honked off at what feels like someone overriding my choice, like they're saying I didn't really know what I want. ![]()
"That's totally a Cullen hand gesture."
"But it doesn't look like him at all!"
"He's older; it's him."
"Why is he wearing the same armor as Leliana?!"
"Maybe they're not companions."
"Maybe that's not Leliana...!"
"Wait -- who is that hot elf in the back?"
LOL! Well, I'll also say now... someone who was "in the know" also told us it wasn't him. Ahem. So there was genuine reason to doubt, at the time. ![]()
I don't think I will be here for when the 5k page hits exactly. More snow is coming and I have to go buy some stuff so I will probably be a bit late.
More things removed from the game before release. Cullen's additional sword of mercy.

Didn't you all on the East Coast get enough damn snow already? Am I in AZ yet? This snow sh!t sucks ass!

Wait, what?! Really? Who?? I don't remember this!
Also -- a reminder to everyone to save your "likes" for 5K; I'd been dishing them out before I realized I was gonna run out soon
So, sorry to everyone posting hilarious and awesome stuff at present lol
Here to help speed it up...have this...."I dunno WTF Cullen is doing here" video.
I think he has a bottom-touching phobia.
Revisiting Commander Buttwiggle from Boom's video from a while back:
OMG that is awesome
It's like he's walking on tippy-toe!
Wow, that's really interesting! I had no idea they planned to have it on him at one point. I actually tried to incorporate some sword of mercy symbolism into my 5k piece, though I don't know if it's clear enough to be taken as such in my depiction
... that's because it wasn't common knowledge...Wait, what?! Really? Who?? I don't remember this!

Oh, no...I never really thought about it. I just use "Boo" as a generalized humorous term for "girlfriend/boyfriend."
And first learning his mouthful of a name. At long last.
I played this part again today and laughed out loud when Cassandra was announced.
Announcer: "And accompanying the Inquisitor is Cassandra... name... name... name..."
Cassandra: "Yeah, yeah, go on with it already."
Announcer: "...Pentaghast."
I wonder how many names the announcer skipped.
It was also in the original concept art.
God. Ye Olde Survey leak. There just was no doubt that was him. And because of that Sword of Mercy we were sure he was still in templar garb. I remember being excited to see Cole's name, too. And lots of people turned their nose up at Sera b/c she was described as "bratty."
So, another reminder to continually reload so you know what page you're on. We're speeding up nicely... but also need to be able to stop.
... that's because it wasn't common knowledge...
lol Oh I see. I guess I was in the dark ![]()

I actually like his look now in the game. Though I wish the bear fur trimmed the outer bit of his armor around his neck and not look so much like a stripper's boa.

If it wasn't him, then who was it? Or did it end up being him? ![]()
