Just for United States and Canada?

 

Awwww, I had a cool idea I wanted to send them . Oh well.

[BansheeOwnage]

I think you have to use abilities from the approved list, guys.

For some reason I didn't see that the first time I read it. Oh well. I recognize all of the things on the list except for "Meditation Duration Modifier". Does anyone know what that is? I haven't seen Avoid Killing Blow in SP, but apparently it's in MP on some new gear.

 

Anyway, I suggest to everyone that all of their submissions incorporate Maximum Mana - no matter what their ideas are or if it makes sense - because there is currently no way to increase mana, even though you can increase stamina substantially. So yeah. Everyone do that.

 

Now

[BansheeOwnage]

If they're going to have you be able to increase armour, or increase front armour like a shield, why not have Berserk or Heal on Hit? I love Heal on Hit. I also think it would be really weird to have a belt that increased your front armour.

 

Anyway, rambling, sorry.

[Phalaenopsis]

I can't enter officially as I'm in the EU... But I love DA so much I wanted to participate, so I sent it anyway. I don't care about the prizes and they can do whatever they want with my item/story. 

 

I really had fun writing it, that's what really counts after all, right?

“Lord of the Dalish Bards” – a tale of The Belt of Ever Faster Speed and Extreme Dexterity

(Stat: Dexterity +30, Passive: Rampage)

 

It has been heard in the old Dalish tales of a long time lost glittering belt that once was the property of a bard named Mic’Hael Flahtleyn. This bard was most renowned for his extreme dexterity and lightness of foot that enchanted his followers and impressed his enemies so much they got stunned just by watching him dance.

 

His only wish in life was to become the fastest and most graceful dancing bard Thedas had known and it is said that Fen’Harel, a most playful God, heard his wish and granted it by offering him a magic belt that glittered and shimmered like the Fade where it came from.

 

When Mic’Hael put on his belt for the first time and went on field with his companions, he felt his feet lighter and quicker than ever. But what he had not foreseen is that, when facing his first group of enemies, as he started dancing all his companions felt the urge of joining him in his frantic but graceful movements and it is said that at that moment an old, joyful Dalish tune could be heard all around them, echoing from the Fade.

Their opponents, mesmerised by this incredible show remained petrified. As the music disappeared, and the bard and his companions came back to their senses, their dexterity and speed had grown so much that they crushed the opposing party within seconds.

 

Stories about the disappearance of the belt differ among the Dalish clans but the most common tale is that Mic’Hael, so proud of his new talents, got swallowed by a hole he dug himself under him after listening to his own tapping for several hours.

It is also said Fen’Harel had a good laugh that day.

I've been toying with a few ideas, probably send them later today.

Seriously, BW? Your European players are not  worthy even to participate in a short fanfic contest?.. Ok, if yoг say so.... 

[Ananka]

Pfft, I'm going to share the item I just created with them whether they want it or not. Screw geography and regulations, I'm submitting it 

I don't care about winning anything anyway. 

 

(The country thing has been discussed before, though, it's legislature and due to legal mumbo-jubo, not BW's fault)

[Joxer]

From VG247 - and if I could vote on it, this would be my winner:

Not a bad burn, I'll admit.

Blame your own country's laws. Government regulations are what make it difficult for EA to run a contest across international lines with a prize attached.

Staff of Plushie Pacification

 

The staff projects a stream of mabari & nug plushies at the target causing them to collapse into cuddly unconsciousness for 6-8 hours.

.....I just want Sheogorath's Wabbajack. I want a random chance of turning anyone into a sweetroll!

[Heimdall]

Okay, so I think I'll put together four entries, then send them in at once.  The first one is designed for pyromaniacs

 

I checked the accessories list on the wiki, some of the effects on the this list seem all new, atleast for accessories.

[bondari reloads.]

Is it accessories only? If so they should have included weapons, lots of potential for dairy products to shine.
But then again, nothing beats the staff with kittens tied to it.

Amulets, belts, and rings only.  Probably because they don't need ingame models.

[thats1evildude]

I sent in four entries: two rings, one belt and one amulet. Now we play the waiting game.

 

...

 

Eh, the waiting game sucks. Who wants to play Hungry Hungry Hippos?

[midnight tea]

Well, let's face it - those will likely be mostly descriptions and stats: something that likely can be coded in very easily. Though it doesn't mean that it still isn't fun - having own description and a little story for an item with unique effects

[bondari reloads.]

Makes sense! Good luck to the participants; I feel at least one should submit The One Ring boosting Stealth - because things can't be so terribly original all the time.

I know, it's just something fun for the fans. I'm thrilled that they do it at all

[OdanUrr]

Um... have they ran out of ideas?

[thats1evildude]

I was waiting for someone to suggest that. I knew it would happen eventually.

I think we've been pretty clear about what we want?

[Heimdall]

Should I make this my fifth entry? 

 

Name: That One Ring

Type: Ring

Effect: Enter stealth when not attacking during combat

-5 Willpower

Backstory Text: (There is an inscription on the outside of the band)

One King to rule them all, One ring to make them

One ring to bring them all and through the blood bind them

 

There’s an old Tevinter campfire story that used to be a myth that used to be a legend.  It says that old King Carinatus of Barindur turned away from the Old Gods because he had become an abomination, and was secretly bribing his nobles to worship him under the name Saurius using gifts of land and gold.  He’d concocted a plan to mind control the rulers of Qarinus, Neromenian, and Tevinter through the use of magic rings presented as diplomatic gifts.  Some say he had plans to send rings to the king of the dwarves and elven envoys.  Apparently, the blood magic ritual required to make this spell work didn’t quite go as planned.  Carinatus’ knife slipped and cut off his ring finger.  This somehow caused a mystical chain reaction that destroyed Barindur.

 

The tale is dubious, but the ring seems magical enough.  Just try to ignore the whispers.

[midnight tea]

xD

I dare someone to submit The Wondrous Chastity Belt - +500 to all stats as long as Inquisitor stays un-romanced ;P (no flirting too!)

[BansheeOwnage]

Blame your own country's laws. Government regulations are what make it difficult for EA to run a contest across international lines with a prize attached.

For a contest like this, maybe the prize should have simply been having your gear in the game? Then anyone could participate.
