Ugh, now I just have to play TLC. Been avoiding it for some time...

Ugh, now I just have to play TLC. Been avoiding it for some time...

 

I started it and then kind of went, "Eh."  Apparently I need to try it again.  Maybe with the Scholar this time; I like the political stuff better, and I like the idea of the Marquis of Serault being this weird old guy who's sort of inured to the crazy.

[Siha]

Thank you (and the others) kindly for the information, I will catch up on the topic.

 

It's possible. A female Marquis only has the one option.

 

Figures. *sigh*

 

Both have both.  My Huntress romanced the Abbess and my Scholar romanced the Bard.  I wanted the Silent Hunter, but our love was never to be...

 

They wouldn't let me. I must have done something wrong. Which is pretty strange because I could ban... become well acquainted with everyone in game, my favorite being the lady for Josie's personal quest. I sacrifice myself for my friends.

 

What is a lover good for anyway? He always pushed these strange "I need to talk to you" quests on me, which might be interrupted, and he was captured once. What a man. So is there any benefit in having a lover?

The Silent Hunter though... I could do that.

So if we're theorizing that maybe Andruil has a temple like Mythals- which Morrigan calls her "greatest sanctum", maybe each of the Pantheon has a temple, located at various points around the world. 

 

It'd be interesting if Skyhold was once where Fen'harel's temple stood, until angry mobs of elves tore it down in anger at his locking away the rest of the pantheon. Skyhold was built on top of it, as it were.

 

Skyhold seems to have been a place where a peace monument once stood, from what the notes in the artbook say about the origins of the War Table:  It was originally a Peace Tree that was on the site, and was cut down before the original foundations of Skyhold were laid.  It was supposedly a symbol of truce between two unknown factions.  I suspect the Creators and Forgotten Ones.  Skyhold itself, I think was a magical science project related to the Veil, as well as a base for Fen'Harel's own rebels.

 

I have a suspicion that Solasan may have been Fen'Harel's temple.

Really? When I played, I couldn't get the Abbess. Was it bugged?

 

You have to recuit her as an advisor and then you can try and seduce her if you have a high dignity, but it's a very easy challange to fail.

 

My Scholar pined for the Dashing Outlaw before he fell in love with the Bard.

 

Man that Bard... *sigh*

 

Spoiler

Why is it that even my TLC LI had to be the heartcrushing option?

 

To be honest, I'd rather romance anyone than the Bard.  In particular the Silent Hunter or Well Read Pig Farmer.  I want her, Mae, Krem, Fenris and Dorian to go and challange the establishment in Tevinter.

Okay- the red-faced elves are apparently connected to the Forgotten Ones- coming out of the forest near Serault.  So we've got elves that worship the forgotten ones- or at least one of them, in that forest. There are also (maybe) shrines to Andruil in that forest- (let's say that possibly a Andruil temple exists)

 

Or did.

 

Maybe that forest did once hold Andruil's temple and when Andruil was cast out of the void for terrorizing the forgotten ones, those that worshiped the forgotten ones ransacked Andruil's temple, killed her elves and that's why they roam there out of vengeance....or maybe after Andruil got locked away with the rest..or

 

Don't mind me- thinking out loud.

The Scholar's pretty hot though

You can actually get into the poltical stuff as the Huntress, it just takes a bit more work.  Although my Huntress got really, really lucky with the RGN and suceeded at a bunch of nearly impossible challanges which ended up raising my stats very quickly.

 

And the Marquis is always 30 years old, sorry.

They give you attribute boosts. Other than that there really isn't a point. Stupid Bard took all my money and then got himself kidnapped by the Horned knight while getting friendly with someone else...still rescued him though. My Huntress needed a stress reliever.

I didn't fancy him at first either, but then he was charming and then this happened:

Then the Chantry, which was hilarious

The waiting is the worst part, but when the plot is in the thick of things, it's great.  My Marquis was the Scholar, and yeah, he was just very resigned to the weirdness.    Serault is like living in the Twilight Zone of Thedas, which is saying something.

You need the Elegant Abbess as an Advisor before she becomes a lover.

OK.  Marquis Arthur Dent of Serault, away!

The area immediately north of the Tirashan's called Hunterhorn Mountains by the way, and to the immediate east of that's Kal-Sharok

So maybe this has already been discussed, but Solas' personal quest that was "unlocked" with patch 3 (for PC) and 4 (XBox/PS4)....

Spoiler

really kinda sucked! I guess I am just so starved for new Solas bits and pieces that I was hoping for a bit more, but he didn't even give me approval when we closed that stupid "mega" rift. I thought maybe he would say something and I could swoon to his sweet voice again, but NOOO. Am I missing something? I wasn't like expecting him to be like "Hey Vhenan, so closing that rift was way hot, lets do it right here and after that we will visit the fade and I will tell you the truth and we will have babies and Elven Glory and what not" I know I know, I shouldn't have expected more because all the minor companion quests are basically just fetch quests, but throw me a fracking bone here!

Ok, I am done ranting. How are y'all today?

I only played it once so far, as Huntress. What is the difference, what is the "political stuff"? I actually thought I had t deal with politics quite often. What are the differences, is replaying worth it?

Yes, right? Should have picked the damn Horned Knight in the first place.

You... fell for him because you lost 2x favor for asking him to join you? Or because you needed to collect favor at all to convince him to be with you? (Because, seriously, come on! If Cullen had only once said to me "I want to be with you but you need to do me two favors first"...)

Flabba, really, you are adorable.

Truth. I just comforted myself with the thought that all the other secondary companion quests are like that

Yeah. It was hella worthless.  It was pretty much like "Thanks for the info. dump nerd."   He didn't even say anything when you got there.  I take that back, it wasn't worthless.  I think the implication that these "artifacts of his people" can be tuned and calibrated together may be important down the line.

 

Today is good. Fun thread is fun.

Until you start rasing your stats and recuiting advisors The Huntress is far more likely to suceed at hunting and the Scholar with the poltical stuff.  So a lot of players prefer starting with the Scholar if they want to jump right into the politics without a bunch of nearly impossible challanges.

[nikki-tikki]

Yeah he's only really good for the Chantry part. 

 

Yes, right? Should have picked the damn Horned Knight in the first place.

 

He even tells you in a drunken stupor that he would rather be surrounded by other women and drinking expensive wine instead of being there with you drinking...less expensive wine. Still kept him as the lover though....^{logic right?}

[Suketchi]

Anyone else sacrifice Serault's wealth just to bed the Bard? 

 

Me? Never!

 

...*COUGH* totally did *COUGH*

Nah, it was the giggling and the Chantry lockpicking. But I wouldn't say I fell for the Bard  , though I did find him charming. My Scholar did fall though, and hard. It made for some interesting roleplaying, after the Horned Knight's abduction

[dragondreamer]

The Bard did get himself stabbed multiple times saving the Marquis' life, so he's got that going for him.  I loved the Bard rescue - my Marquis was all, "you're a cheating *******, but you're MY cheating *******!"   

[Sable Rhapsody]

I've played some Fallen London, but mostly to noodle around for the atmosphere.  Last Court actually has a win condition, yes?  Any advice for actually playing this little game?

I never did that lockpicking... I figured I'd just wait for the Divine to unlock it for me. Should I have broken in there, is that... good?

You can win and lose? What's winning, what's losing? I didn't really figure that out... I had fun though.
