It's been a while since I last thought seriously about Dr*gon A*e (even prior to falling in love with BG3) and I think a big part of that is I'm not as big a fan of the setting and the worldbuilding as I used to be. Like to me it really does feel like BW looked at typical fantasy settings and went "hmm okay but what if there was Catholic-enforced racism and abelism". And like. Cool thought experiment bro. Do we really need three games made by primarily white guys about that.
#dragon age critical#marie speaks#idk if ableism is the best comparison for mage oppression but idk you get my larger point#I've heard that DA was supposedly BW's critical response to settings like Forgotten Realms after making the og BG games#and idk if that's true but I'd be willing to believe that bc that's what a lot of it's world building feels like#“oh u thought the elves where gonna be ethereal and respected? nah they're a haphazard blend of irl oppressed groups”#“oh u thought this fantasy world was gonna have a plethora of interesting and dynamic deities and gods? nah it's just fantasy Catholicism”#“oh u thought people who can use magic would have respected places in society? nah they're locked in jail for being Different”#like I feel like these ideas were kinda cool for one game. An expanded thought experiment#but idk if they were strong enough to sustain an entire franchise#without significantly expanding their pool of writers to get the perspectives of people they're attempting to represent at least#but that's a whole different issue#anyway DA has some legit cool concepts like the Grey Wardens that I will always love#and most of their early character work is still really strong#but for me every time that setting rears it's head problems arise#anyway if you're still a DA fan that's totally fine! I'm very happy for you!#don't let my salty ramblings spoil what resonates with you from these games#I'm just reflecting bc it used to be a huge part of my life especially through like all of highschool#and now it's just. not.

Lief: "Yeah, right. So none of what you said makes any lick of sense, so I'm gonna assume you're a funky hybrid and move along with my day. Anyways, whatcha doing out here by yourself?"

Ethereal isn't mad about the comment- most of my other characters would be, but Ethereal just... don't care about other's opinions of them. Instead, they're curious as to what Lief could think they're a hybrid of.

Winter and the Dry Season is FREE for five days!
Winter Solstice is here and Winter is unenthused about their Season; however, as ice and snow storms are cast into Weather Maker to disperse, an error catches Winter's eye. They investigate to find that the error is much worse than they can ever fear. Someone - another Season - is interfering and creating a Dry Season. With the help of a cheerful weather worker, Winter must find a solution to this problem or it could have devastating effects on the Mortal Realm.

World Borders & Traversing Interspace
Even though each world is somewhat beholden to its own rules, there are ships that cross those boundaries to traverse an 'Interspace' which is visually very similar to general depictions of space travel. Ships of varying build and engineering methodology as unique as the many worlds in the universe able to travel the lanes between worlds.
The reason this method of travel is possible is because these crafts are made with shattered boundary pieces from the Worlds' borders, and as such, can be used to cross between said boundaries. This method of travel is scarce knowledge as often it takes a lot to be able to tear away at the borders of a World. The travel is a bit slower, but is a more reliable alternative to Warping, which has high volatility and one's route can easily be interrupted by outside forces.
You don't need a lot of it either to pass through. One small piece to can fit in the palm of your hand is usually enough per person. Obviously, for larger aircrafts, the amount needs to be proportional to the amount of mass passing through, but larger pieces are still quite rare. Mining these Barrier Shards is possible if one has the power, tools and time, but excessive extraction is harmful to the health of the world, itself. That said, Worlds tend to have Gateways to others made either through natural or unnatural means.
Usually on a smaller scale, it's not that big a deal because the border repairs itself, except for areas where Leylines and Gateways exist, as passages that connect to the Ethereal and the trails made via travel often causes the Barrier to heal in a way that accounts for such movement. This is often beneficial to the worlds that do so as beings from other worlds bring with it unique lifeforms with which to evolve from should they pass while globetrotting.
However, if something on a larger destructive scale were to happen, the complete destruction of a world's border can cause the world's core to sink back into the Ethereal Realm. This is because Aether attracts more Aether. Life finds a way, and will inherently seek out more life. And when such a dense core of a World, brimming with life energy is left to the nature elements of reality, there is little keeping it there in the physical realm.
The metaphysical pull of energy results in the aether tearing a hole through the plane of reality. This process of falling out of reality creates the interspace equivalent of a black hole, with shards of the lost world to either float about open to the elements of the interspace, or sink into the unreality of the ethereal realm.
For most people that means their physical form ceases to be and they're left eternally in a spiritual form, or those with the imagination or strength to endure it can become entities with slight authority over the Ethereal Realm, able to traverse the space or create their own Provinces at will.
Were the borders to fall from worlds on a massive scale, it could tear apart the fabric of the universe, and cause other planes and realms to rubberband into one another and collide, wreaking more havoc in ways unpredictable.
