I have trouble with a lot of these....

 

Sloth:  #1 as i love to procrastinate and sleep.... and play video games when i should probably be cleaning or doing something around the house

 

Pride:  #2 when i do show ambition whether at work or around the house, i tend to be really ocd about my tasks in making sure they are done properly and look professional after being done.  Its because i take great pride in my work, when i actually do it.  Plus back in my younger days when i was seriously into sports, i was a very prideful person, and arrogant as hell.

 

Rage:  #3 I may not show rage very often in public, but when im by myself away from anyone i could possibly hurt, i get angry, and im not very likeable when im angry.  Broke my hand by punching a brick wall out of frustration 6 months ago....  not to mention im constantly screaming at idiots while driving (windows rolled up of course, cant have them hearing the things i call them).

 

Desire:  #4 i have trouble resisting temptation to begin with.... because well, its so tempting.  This might be number 1 soon if they keep releasing stuff about inquisition.  I really really want it.

 

Despair:  #5 i have very little trouble with this, for some reason breakups and deaths of family members and friends dont really hang me up that much.  I mean yeah im sad about the deaths, but after about 2 weeks, ive had enough stuff on my plate to not have time to worry about it.... as for the breakups, well you grow a few layers of skin after the first 2, so those really dont bother me past 3 days.  And no, i dont take any sort of medicine for depression, im pretty sure i am somewhat depressed, but im too lazy to acknowledge it or care to the point where it doesnt affect me in any way

 

Hunger:  #6 only because im hungry right now.... could go for a burger or some chipotle.... this is more along the lines of ambition, im not a very ambitious person.  Dont get me wrong, if i see the opportunity ill take it, but i wont go out of my way to make the opportunity happen.  Im more let the pieces fall, and what happens will happen, not the lets try to manipulate where each piece falls so it can be in my favor kind of guy.

 

Fear:  #7 im a realist, my worst fear is being in the open water of the ocean.  My father's favorite movie was jaws, he showed it to me when i was 6.  I have nothing against sharks, i think they are beautiful creatures, if im in a boat or watching them at the aquarium.  Make me swim with them, and you will see me panic... at least on the inside, first instinct would be to stay calm and slowly get away from it.... then get to land and kill the MFer who put me in that situation... and yes i would kill them.  So it would be kind of weird to be on land for like 1 second and have the demon warp me to an ocean and have a shark attack me, my first thought would be this isnt possible, this is an illusion and i wouldnt even regard it as real and wouldnt have a problem breaking said illusion.

 

Remorse:  #8 i do have my regrets, but im a man who doesnt live in the past.  yeah, i always say i should have done this or i should have done that, but i cannot change that, and im well aware of it, so why should i really care.

 

Envy:  #9 everyone has a little envy in them, i picture myself right at the average mark.  Yeah i envy pro athletes who make 10 million + a year, but who doesnt?  Im living comfortably the way i want to, and i really dont feel envious towards others, cause the others are all in the same boat i am usually in.

 

Terror:  #10  see #7 fear

Me? Most likely Desire.

My Inquisitor? Pride, I'm pretty sure.

Funny, i was just thinking of this.

 

Sloth, by a long shot. Im lazy. Always have been. Most other candidates (Desire, Pride, Hunger) would be overshadowed by Sloth.

 

Rage is second. I have learned to have a better handle on my temper over the years, but when i get angry, i can easy lose all reason and sense.

 

Fear demons seem like a good possibility as well, but i dont know how they function well enough yet to apply the knowledge.

 

Also, in the context of the in game universe, im sure if i was a mage a Desire Demon would end up taking over. If for no other reason then id be an idiot and try to have sex with one.

Rage, definitely. I suffer from IEAD (Intermittent Explosive Anger Disorder) and will literally rage at the drop of a hat. It affects my social and home life to the point where it's safest for those around me if I'm by myself.

 

Whenever I do experience extreme anger, not only do I scream and curse, but I'll start throwing whatever I can get my hands on as well as physically harm myself. I'm completely oblivious to the damage I've caused until I'm in a calmer state of mind.

 

I have found one outlet for my anger that's helped a lot and doesn't involve hurting myself or others: video games. Maker knows how many hours I've put into Dragon Age, Skyrim, or GTA. Oddly enough, games have helped me learn how to control my emotions. Not exactly sure how they do this, but all I know is that I'm a much happier person after playing these games than I am before.

 

Of course, I'm having a much harder time at the moment after having lost my best kitty friend of 14 years not three weeks ago, but I'll pull through... eventually. You know, one of his favourite things to do was to lay down next to me and watch the TV as I played DAO. As soon as he'd hear the intro theme playing, didn't matter where he was in the house, he'd come running over. *sigh* Man, I miss my cat.  :(

Sloth, only time I ever get anything done is when I'm too lazy to procrastinate.

Rage, most definitely. I have no patience.

 

Sloth would be second.

A Despair/Sloth duo would take me out pretty easily.  Nothing like a bout of depression to take away your will to do anything.

 

My Dalish Inquisitor would probably be susceptible to Envy, unhappy with her life among the elves and jealous of outsiders.

Probably desire. Not in the sexy sense, just the greedy sense. I like things. I want more things. I love power and can find a way to totally abuse it, no matter how small, (trust me). So yeah, desire.

Pride, most likely.

I do believe that I have a realistic view of my own capabilities, and I don't think I'm due anything special, but I refuse to accept that there is anything I may not aspire to, and I don't accept any kind of "This is not your domain" argument. To aspire to knowledge and power and accept no limitations therein is a virtue in my eyes. Judgment may be cast for what I do with whatever I have of it, but not for having it or aspiring to it in the first place. Most notably I will not accept boundaries set in the name of gods, so a religious mindset will most likely call me out for pride.

Having said that, the cheap "temptations" in the DA games would leave me absolutely cold, I'm not prideful enough to believe I could retain control by default if I let a demon in, and nothing is worth losing control.

As for the others, hmm...Desire is a thing, but I'm all too concious of the likelihood that most things turn stale if I have an excess of it at no cost. Rage used to be a thing, especially when driving, but I've mellowed over the years. Despair....I can't tell, I've never found reason enough to despair. Sloth...maybe I'm playing games too much and don't do enough that's useful. Not sure. Envy? I know the feeling, but it's never been a driving force for anything.

I wonder if they will even be in DA:I at all. I have a strange feeling they have been removed.

The Sloth demon is definetely scary...cause he can take any form......for my Inquisitors.

 

Then this Fear Demon looks very demonic......flying and all.. then the Pride Demon.... those will cause me some trouble in my real life nightmare.

For me I'd say maybe Desire, Despair or Sloth...I wouldn't make a great mage, I'd be an abomination in no time lol.

For my initial inquisitor I would say.....that's a hard one....Desire perhaps or maybe Despair, probably a bit of both now that I think about it.  Although my first run will be as a mage, so I like to think she'll be able to handle it.   ^_^

Desire, lust, animalism, craving, fervor et cetera...call it how you want. It's here to stay.
