OMG.

 

THIS IS IT!

THIS IS WHAT I'VE DREAMED OF!

 

Mages vs Elves. The battle of the opressed minorities.

In the Red corner, they've had their homeland destroyed twice and are unwelcome anywhere outside of an Alienage, they're the ELVES!

And in the Blue corner, they're taken from their families as teenagers, forced to fight demons as young adults and the reward is to be kept in an isolated tower for the rest of their lives, they're the MAGES!

WHO DESERVES TO BE PROTECTED MORE? IT'S THE ULTIMATE BATTLE OF SOCIAL JUSTICE!

 

AAAAAAAAAAND... GO!

I'm not sure if it's going to be that black and white, so I'm going with neither until I can play the game and form my own opinion.

I'm a Dalish mage. I can't decide

Oh Xil and Lob are gonna have a field day....

I'm not sure how much what he said there applies beyond his specific situation, but my planned Dalish Mage would happily pick elves without hesitation.

 

I suspect that it's probably just a minor sidequest if anything though, given that they are several yards from the elf woman complaining that a bunch of idiot templars mistook a shovel for a mage's staff.

Beat me to it.  I'll bring the popcorn, you bring the drinks.

It seems specific...a group of mages are terrorizing a group of elves for some reason.

Should be easy for a Dalish mage. You're probably a keeper of your own clan, never stepped foot in a circle and grew up being told that Dalish = good, Shem = bad.

 

A Dalish would identify as an elf first, mage second.

kill both sides

Where is that quote from?

 

Is this scenario purely hypothetical or did I miss something.

[Shadow Fox]

Anyway I'll save the innocents on both sides if I can.

 

If I cant I'll pick the side that pisses me off the least.

[I SOLD MY SOUL TO BIOWARE]

Elves. To hell with the mages. They're all gonna be dead or tranquil when moody elven Inquisitor is done with 'em.

It's an ambient dialogue at around 0:28 in that video.

You can hear it in the demo around the 0:30 mark.

 

I will defend my elven brethren from the filthy robes.

[Basement Cat]

kill both sides

Better yet, let them fight and then move in to mop up. No sense in taking risks...

Sure I'll also bring a camera.

[Grieving Natashina]

<chuckle> I'm rather glad I tend to enjoy dwarven rogues as my preferred class and race.  The robes and the elves fighting on the forums is pretty amusing to me.  I hope everyone plays nice enough to keep this thread open, because...

Screenshots my friend.  

[Steelcan]

the real question is where these knife ears are from, are they Daliush refugees or City Elves (seems more likely they are CE)

[sandalisthemaker]

Interesting. If mages and elves did end up going at each other, and this wasn't just some individual elf voicing his concerns, then I will use the best possible method of deciding who to back:   I will flip a coin.

[Ailith Tycane]

Elves.

 

The only current example of a mage run society we have in Thedas is Tevinter, and it's terrible for anyone who isn't a mage, so yeah.
