Man, I would be all over a game like that. Speaking as someone who has been playing through Arcanum again lately, I would love a full on modern RPG set in Victorian-or-some-such times. You must do this, Bioware! I want to make complex moral decisions while wearing a top hat and a monocle.

Bioware's new RPG: Adventures in Austin-land.
Matchmake with ease, if your persuasion is high enough.
Watch out, Emma.  You're next.

The Baroness is a character we've adapted from a Jane Austen novel. She can converse fluently on matters of social etiquette and will never speak to you unless introduced beforehand (as is proper). Then she will wax poetic about Mr. Darcy and whether he is a proper match for herself or you (if you're a female character). There's a huge minigame involving dance cards, gossip, and tropical punch in the middle of the game. Riveting, I assure you. :)

Ferret torments me because he knows I would DIE to write this character.


I would DIE to play this in a Dragon Age game. Seriously, please make this happen!

Yes, but high dragons are all female. There's only one way to be sure, and I don't think BioWare would show that even in a M rated game.


Okay...aren't the high dragon females mentioned as the ones with wings?   I might be mistaken..but I thought that was another way to tell their gender?  If so,  what does that make the Archdemon?

You're right Feraele. Only female dragons get wings. Drakes are as big as male dragons get.

Oh, and color me firmly in the group that would love a steampunk Victorian era RPG. But that shouldn't be surprising if you've ever looked at my blog and seen what my book's setting is. :whistle:

(High Renaissance gunpowder, rapiers, alchemists and sorcery.)

Few years ago, during my time on mmo's, i once saw a game coming out called Sword of the New World, victorian mmorpg, which looked great, but wasn't the best game ever.

Can't see this happening but would but really nice if bioware was to make a new ip single player rpg in a victorian setting, like vagrant story was back on the old ps1.

This is a screen shot of game in question.

Because they are not High Dragons but Old Gods I believe the gender arguemnt is a nonissue.  In the end the Old Gods are most likely neither male or female, but well.  Old Gods.  If they are indeed High Dragons then you are correct they are female, however, I simply believe it is an Old God who assumes a form similar to a High Dragon.  And therefore the Archdemon is genderless.  That is just my take on it.  Dunno if Bioware would agree with my assessment of the Archdemon gender situation.

Actually, I would say it's something like Witherfang. The gender is dependant on the form. Since the Archdemon's typically take the form of a High Dragon, they are female in appearance. If/when they change form, the gender may or may not change.

Old Gods have no sex ascannot reproduce. Their essence requires a soul to destroy and tainted gods souls only resonate to darkspawn. This is why a tainted warden or ghoul who has high enough will to break the archdemons commands when standing right next to it is required to destroy it. (The ghoul must still have a remenant soul to destroy it, if it has lost its soul by the time it strikes the archdemon will pass to another darkspawn body.

Unofficial DLC side story perhaps? I would pay for that.



Also, I suggest "Pride and Prejudice and Zombies" as a good read.

I think this "baroness" is the one responsible for Justice getting stuck in a dead Grey Warden body.

Bioware, I'm so sorry, but someone has made the board game. The pressure is on!

'z that some reference to a certain countess from diablo or is it something else entirely ? :P


Countess Elizabeth Bathory, the 'female' Dracula, is wildly rumored to have bathed in the blood of virgins in order to remain eternally young and beautiful.

This is impossible though, as blood quickly coagulates, and by the time you filled a bathtub, you'd be dealing with more solid than liquid. She could *shower* in the blood of virgins though.

Obviously it's not Isolde. Joke.


I thought it was funny, but you know someone would take it seriously.


Ah, an Elizabeth Bathory reference...Nice. Though It would be interesting if Bioware created a character based on her.
