IT'S TRUE!  YOU HAVE TO LISTEN TO ME!!  THEDAS IS MYTHAL'S GOD-DRAGON EGG!


Do you know the true purpose of the aglet?

If I had to guess, its either because he's projecting his own issues on the wardens- wardens are people who make difficult choices for the greater good and frequently don't question the consequences, or perhaps he legitimately doesn't know how to stop the blight. Just that their methods for containing it are wrong. [And without an alternative, they are unlikely to listen to him.] 

 

He gives disapproval if you use the book knowledge perk when you appeal to the Wardens, he disapproves of you calling them heroes and say they saved the world many times over. That gets a side eye from me. The Wardens do many questionable things but without them tainting themselves the world would be a blighted wasteland and in that situation if he's not going to offer help then he should keep his disapproval to himself.

 

I did mention the DAO nostalgia right? I'm protective about the sacrifices my wardens had to make and I don't like even Solas belittling them.

I'd love to see some fan renditions of the rest of the pantheon. I don't think I've seen too many yet. 

 

I know most people picture Mythal as the elven version of Flemeth but I think she'd look more like Morrigan but with the horn hair.

Solas's aglets, in particular?  Pretty sure they restore Balance.

 

It is a heavy burden for shoelaces, but they have no choice.  TwT   ...forgive them, vehnan.

I feel the same way.  I never hesitated to support the Wardens, based on what my Cousland endured.  Perhaps their secrecy has lead to some lost knowledge, but in my experience, the Wardens tend to give pretty selflessly of themselves.  Who would WANT to consume a blighted elixir, eventually becoming one of the creatures you dedicate your life to fighting, in order to protect the general population?!

 

I wish I had a conversation option to say to Solas, "Well if you know a better way, then I'm all ears, otherwise, keep your beautiful mouth shut (except for when we totes make out later)"

I think by now i've made an alternate story of dragon age but i don't care I'm happy. 

 

I laughed way too much throughout all of that.

 

 

I'd pay for a game where Mythal gets her hands on a Zerg Brood.

Yesss. This pleases me. Maybe I'll stop being lazy and throw in a few too. 

 

For some reason I always think of something like Gilgamesh from Fate/Zero when thinking about the other elves in the pantheon. Just big, shiny, over the top god-beings.

That actually sounds like it might be painful. "Honey, your chin is digging into my pubic bone again."

Regarding the Wardens - I admit, its hard not to bristle a bit when Solas condemns them as he does, especially with my DAO nostalgia still strong... But, I've also read both The Calling and Last Flight and... their whole 'at any cost' philosophy seems to go way too far way too often. We've also seen how the Wardens act in other crises... as in, they don't. You often get the impression that the world could be ending, but as long as it's not the blight at fault, they would just shrug and go, 'yeah, not our job, sorry.' Maybe not always as individuals, but as an organization. Add to that their willingness to go mucking around in dangerous things they don't understand... I think Solas' views make sense. As they always do, in my opinion, even if I don't always agree. (Unlike Morrigan, for example. Love her, but sometimes I had to stretch a bit to make her opinions and reactions fit with what I understood of her character.)

Speaking dangerous blighty things - not sure if anyone's read Last Flight, so I won't go into detail but I'll tag it for safety (no actual spoilers, really, just a super vague mention that some might rather avoid if they want to read the book blind)...

Hey Madrar and Sashimi_taco I was wondering if you've seen this video?
Dragon Age Witherfang and Werewolves Allies:
At 6:40 the Lady of the Forest says "You summoned me and placed me in the body of the dread wolf."
I posted once before, many forum moons ago.
Just thought you guys would find it interesting ;)

Ooh.  That is kind of interesting.  How long ago was this supposed to have happened?  Are we talking Elvhenan, or Dalish?

God i am so in love with the thought of Mythal and Fen'Harel being best friends back in Arlathan. I want to see fan art of them hanging out being powerful, relaxed, and goofy together. 

 

ma nuvenin.

Something tells me Solas would find being put in a woman body to be very fun. He would be like "now i can experience moon magic" or something weird like that.

No....  Sashimi was right.  They pierce the shoe veil, dragging the physical lace through to the Other Side.  No other lace in a thousand years has accomplished such a feat.

This is what happens when you side with the werewolves in Origins (a choice I could never make). Zathrian made the werewolf curse many centuries before the fifth blight. So it would still be Dalish :)

I put whenever Mythal was having a bad day dealing with her sons or a**hole husband, Solas would play a trick on one of her kids or husband and she would laugh. Or maybe just have a witty burn for her family members.

Remember when Flemeth/Mythal liked the jokester Hawk the most? That's because Solas was her favorite non-son son.

I really like the idea that Solas might be something of an 'adopted' son to Mythal. It fits well in with how close [but different] his character is to Morrigan. For added measure, they even fight like bratty siblings.

It's... frustrating.  But at the same time, this second playthrough feels like not so much a game as a heated philosophical debate with some guys in Canada, three thousand miles away.  Which is both crazy interesting and tremendously ambitious in terms of exploring the game medium as legitimate capital-A Art, and if it weren't for Solas' character digging his hooks into me in the first place, I probably would've missed it entirely.


I get ya....I felt like there was some deliberate 4th wall breaking going on, and it made me really stop and think about what I'm doing when I'm playing a game, and question what is happening psychologically. Same thing when we watch TV, but games are so much more interactive..it's on another level. For another thing, I know there is research being done nowadays about using games (and social media) for therapeutic purposes, and to help with mental health issues and such. I'm not sure how I feel about it yet. But I agree the game is very philosophical, and that's what I enjoy about bioware games..they always make me think a lot.

Wait- the other way around, no?  She was the spirit, summoned and bound to the physical body of a dread wolf?

 

That is weird.  Couldn't possibly have been one of Ghil's toys.   Unless they were just, you know, lying around- and the basic idea behind their use was still somewhat understood. And this lycanthropy was transmissible, right?  Which is crazy.  Maybe something like a fade-shadow disease, opening the conduit for semi-possession- but even then, there was no guarantee every human they came in contact with would have a possible infection path...

 

*ponders*   How was it transmitted?  Usual thing, biting?
