Someone quick, get the Varric prayer. All I have handy is the shrine...
Speaking of which
First Varric shrine I've posted since we surpassed 200 pages

Better late then never! Would've had this up faster, but I had a burst of tech-illiteracy again.

Cassandra: on ward we must press forward
Iorn bull: the final battle is afoot lets break someones neck already
Varric: umm Inquisitor?
Inquizzy: Varric?
Varric: I've been needing to ask you something for a while now -starts shooting several darkspwan-
Cassandra: Dawrf can't you see where in middle of a battle here
Varric: yeah asking you to marry me now would be pretty dumb
Inquizzy: wait what?

I would have a fan girl attack of epic proportions if this actual happened. (or anything that involved him proposing to you)

So have we all, where Varric is concerned because he is awesome. so say we all
Varric's handsome.
Not something we didn't already know, but man, look at the picture on that prayer card. I didn't even really take it in at first, but then I saw it again in the thread and just had to... stop and stare for a minute.

This is one of my favorite pictures of him so far.
might partially be because we have such a nice view of the chesthair.
I never really thought about it before, but his new scar/marking thing reminds me of default!Hawke.
Yeah, I've seen that picture a million times and I'm still surprised by how gorgeous he is. How people can say all dwarves are ugly, is completely beyond me.
@Chernaya Personally, it's always reminded me of Tyrion Lannister.

Nice! I hadn't even thought of that. Love comparing my two favorite dwarves. :3

Yesssss, Tyrion is absolutely awesome sauce and not to mention dreamy.
The new season of Game of Thrones can't come fast enough! And don't even get me started on The Hobbit movies...
So, does anybody miss Varrics blonde hair? It looks really dark, and red(?) this time around, a complete far cry from his DA2 model. I mean don't get me wrong, he looks great either way. But I kinda wish they'd kept him a blondie..
Yeah I miss it, he suited the blonde hair.
I wonder if they took the fandom's complaints of "why are the male LIs always blond?" to heart. ![]()
I... don't mind the change too much? I guess I was expecting some changes overall, since we're moving to a new game engine. And this shade makes him look a bit more rugged, which makes sense given the changes he's gone through between DA2 and DAI.
@ Foelhe This is gonna sound weird but I totally read all your posts with Fenris's voice in my head.
It wasn't intentional, I just subconsciously started doing it and I now can't stop lol.
Anyway, that is an interesting thought, I suppose it's possible. Hopefully, that means they changed it because he's an LI this time around.
Dorian was originally going to be blonde as well wasn't he? I thought I remembered reading that somewhere....
@ solaria Yup, he definitely knew how to work dat blonde hair. ![]()
Dude, Gideon Emery is Fenris' VA. If you're hearing his voice, why would you try to stop?
If we're going on appearance, Varric's an LI. You take a guy who already has a huge fanbase, give him a subtle redesign that makes him like THAT, add him to the next game and then don't let the fans have a chance at him? Say what you will about Gaider, the guy's not evil.
@Kath Yes. Very yes.
@ Foelhe This is gonna sound weird but I totally read all your posts with Fenris's voice in my head.

LOL I do it too. It's the avatar I swear. And maybe Fenris having a pretty attractive voice, imo.
Now that I think about it, most of our male LI's have had light hair haven't they? I gotta say I'm a sucker for darker features (hair/eyes) so I don't mind the change.
I missed a milestone again. *shakes fist at time zone*
On the topic of creepy pasta, Slender Man is scariest with proper immersion. I used to have nightmares back when there were ONLY "alternate reality games" with the Marble Hornets youtube channel and the many many blogs. Something about fooling your brain into thinking that it's real makes it perfect paranoia fuel. The videogame pretty much broke immersion but I appreciate its simplicity. /hipsterglasses
Back on topic about Varric, I found some old albeit hilarious comics with Varric in them. Shall post as soon as I am back from breakfast.
Welcome back! I agree with you about Sman, he used to scare me way more back when he was first a thing. I've gotten used to the ol' guy now.
Can't wait to see the comics. :3
Damn, I leave for a few hours and we've cleared five more pages, nice work.
Gideon Emery has the most amazing voice, fell in love with it during my Final Fantasy phase.
need sleep. Evil time zones caught up with me. ![]()
