The Chargers have a group reunion after a couple months of separate missions.
-
[Image descriptions:
In panel 1, Krem and Bull are sitting next to each other in the Herald’s rest. 
Bull: The stubble is coming along nicely, Krem!
Krem, touching his chin proudly: Thanks chief! That medicine from Stitches works wonders, no magic required! Shame it tastes so gross though.
Bull: Hah! Typical Stitches.
Stitches’ voice floating from out of frame: Cremisius...
In panel 2, Stitches is now visible and is horrified at Krem, exclaiming and gesticulating. Krem scratches his face and isn’t fazed.
Stitches: Have you been EATING IT THIS ENTIRE TIME? IT’S A SKIN OINTMENT
Krem: Ohhhh that makes more sense.]

Art Used in the Dragon Age: Official Cookbook: Tastes of Thedas
While there was some new art, previously seen concept art, there was also the use of ending credit slides. Some possibly denoting certain world states that I briefly referred to in the master post here.
I've split it into sections of:
New Art
Previously Shown Art
Character Art and Slides
General World State Ending Slides
Everything is going below the cut because this will be long. I will also note which page and recipe each image accompanies in the book for easy reference. (Here's to hoping tumblr doesn't mess with the image layout.)
Edit 10/30/2023: Added the page numbers that were missed because it glitched out and deleted things when I tried to go over 30 images and didn't notice till now.
New Art
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Page numbers from top left to right going down:
Orlesian Woman: Sour Cherries in Cream, p. 121, Tevinter Pumpkin Bread, p. 151
Building Etching: Crow Feed, p. 43, Antivan Sip-Sip, p. 161
Spider Design: Posion Stings, p. 115
Sea Creature: Lamprey Cake, p. 147
Smoking Meat Racks: Smoked Ham from the Anderfels, p. 95
Antaam Spearman: Unidentified Meat, p. 37
Admiral Isabela: The Hissing Drake, p. 157
Etching of Bowl: Rivaini Couscous Salad, p. 19
Etching of Platter: Nevarran Blood Orange Salad, p. 13
Table Setting: Goat Custard, p. 127
Red Bear: Conversion Charts, p. 172
Giant: Lamprey Cake, p. 149
Blue Building: About the Authors and Photoghraphers, p. 175
Mabari and Army: Roasted Turkey with Sides, p. 99
These are all new images with three of these looking to be concept art: the presumably Orlesian woman looking at Andrastian themed items, the antaam spearman preparing to throw a spear, and the table setting of what looks like it might be for Rivain or Tevinter based on the aesthetic. Though I lean more Tevinter due to the snake on the basket.
The bowl and platter look to maybe be prop designs, and they are distinctly bird themed with what looks like feathers around the base of the bowl and then mirrored crows on either side of the platter with a dagger etched in the center.
The red bear shown here is new, though it is similar to a mural in Dragon Age: Inquisition in the barn where there is a green-ish bear with stars on its muzzle breathing what might be fire, while holding the white silhouette of a figure with antlers. (Couldn't attach it due to there being a photo limit.)
Then to further note that the dark blue building image looks similar to some concept art/Development images from Dragon Age: Dreadwolf (DA4)
Tumblr media
Previously Shown Art
The piece below have been shown elsewhere before, but there are some new additions so I am showing it here separately from the new art.
Tumblr media
Ferelden Spread: Roasted Wyvern, p. 85
This is was first shown in The Art of Dragon Age: Inquisition and is labeled as "Fereldan Fineries". It was coloured and lacked the two figures in the back left of this image. (Below)
Tumblr media
Character Art
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Cole and Maryden: The Emerald Valley, p. 169
Sera: Sera's Yummy Corn, p. 103
The Iron Bull and Krem: Hot Chocolate, p. 159
Varric and Aveline: Varric's Favorite Pastries, p. 143
Josephine and Inquisitor: Fish Chowder, p. 59
Leliana: Grilled Poussin, p. 77
Cullen: Croissants, p. 137
Morrigan and Keiran: Nettle Soup, p. 65
King Alistair: King Alistair's Lamb and Pea Stew, p. 67
These were mostly character specific ending slides you could get in DAI, going from the top left to right they are slides for: Trespasser: Human Cole ending up with Maryden. Trespasser: Partial image of a slide for an Inquisitor who agrees to become a red jenny with Sera and the Inquisition is disbanded. Trespasser: Iron Bull and the Chargers are alive and taking jobs throughout Orlais and Ferelden. Trespasser: Varric is Viscount Trespasser: Josephine, her personal quest completed. This is the romanced Josephine version. Trespasser: Leliana, not Divine Trespasser: Cullen, having not taken lyrium during Inquisition Inquisition: Morrigan and Keiran leaving Skyhold World of Thedas vol 2: King Alistair
Ending Slides
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Antaam Slide: Lentil Soup, p. 63
Halamshiral Slide: The Hanged Man's Mystery Meat Stew, p. 57
Grey Warden Slide: Sweet and Sour Cabbage, p. 61
Disbanded Inquisition Slide: Sugar Cake, p. 145
These were all ending slides you could get at some point in Inquisition, from the top left to right: Trespasser: The Qunari threat Inquisition: Kicked out of Halamshiral with low approval Inquisition: Grey Wardens were kept in southern Thedas to rebuild, they are estranged from the Wardens in Weishaupt Trespasser: The Inquisition was disbanded
Final Thoughts and Implied World State
Overall the world state makes a lot of sense I think, they went with the one that would be less quantum - so no one is dead or could be dead and is in an important role; hence Cassandra being Divine,
Summary
Inquisition is disbanded
Grey Wardens are divided; though as of the comics and Tevinter Nights we know regardless all Wardens have been called back to Weisshaupt. Unclear if the civil war mentioned in DAI is actually happening.
Morrigan has Kieran and he doesn't have the old god soul anymore
Cole is human
Josephine had her personal quest done.
Leliana wasn't killed in Origins, she is fully human and now retired.
Alistair is king
Cassandra is Divine, no clear answer on the state of the Seekers.
Cullen is retired and established the sanctuary for former templars.

CONFESSION:
I know it won't happen but I would love it if Krem was a returning companion in Dragon Age Dreadwolf.  They could easily have Krem mention that Bull was killed and the Chargers disbanded.  Krem mentions he needs a purpose as well having some unfinished business in Tevinter.  And he can be romanced. Krem deserves his chance to shine as a companion.

thoughts on what fandoms the da:i characters would be in
I will do this for you but ONLY if I amend it to "fandoms they would be annoying about" because it's funnier and otherwise I'm just assigning them shows they would be into and that's too subjective and less fun
One of them has to be a Homestuck and it's Sera, Sera is the Homestuck. Sera has a Trollsona that she doodles on everything, she would 100% absolutely try to dye herself gray using sharpies and vodka for a cosplay. She references it all the time and is annoying when you don't understand her jokes. She still tries to get people into it, but she considers Andrew Hussy a mortal enemy these days for Reasons.
Solas is a Song of Ice and Fire bitch. Not the show. The books. "But wait, Boggers!" you might say (if you know me well enough to call me "Boggers"), "What about LOTR? Why isn't Solas into LOTR?" And to that I say, he's definitely read it and is a nerd about it, but this is about fandom, and fandom to someone like a Reddit-addicted bitch like Solas is about theory crafting, debates, and politics, and ASoIaF being complex but unfinished really lends itself to the kind of deep internet toxicity that I think Solas would crave. Also he likes wolves.
Cole is a Supernatural Superfan. He has all the cheesy "join the hunt" merch because for a while it was his chief special interest and all he wanted was SPN stuff. He's kind of obsessed with Baby, specifically. His favorite episode was Baby and he has an AO3 account full of fic written from the car's perspective. He didn't cry in the finale until he saw the Impala under the canvas and he's been lowkey upset at Sam for doing that ever since.
Dorian is an old school Baldur's Gate fan. Like, BG1 and 2. He's played other RPGs of that era, those are just his favorites. What makes him an annoying fan is that he thinks complicated = good and looooooves to complain about how "simple" and "boring" current-era RPGs are. If you can't softblock yourself from all progress by making one mistake two hours into your playthrough, it's too easy. He's active in fandom spaces and is largely helpful, like he writes tips and guides and will answer newbie questions, but the price for his help is dealing with him being smug.
Leliana is a FromSoft fangirl and a Soulslike aficionado. Nightingale says git gud. She'll happily team up with you in co-op to get you through stuff if you ask, but she also explains mechanics and such like you should have known them already and thinks you're just not trying hard enough to listen, even though her advice is almost incomprehensible.
Cullen is an MCU fanboy. He fully believes they're the peak of cinema. He compares literally everything to an MCU movie, as he has seen all of them, multiple times, and thinks you're "thinking about it too much" if you criticize them in more than the most banal of ways. Usually it's fine, like, being excited for stuff is fine and enjoying mainstream things are fine, but you can only have so many "Thanos was a great villain" conversations with this dude before you go insane. Despite seeming incapable of critiquing the MCU, his criticisms of the DCEU are spot-on, sharp, and demonstrative of actually very impressive media analysis skills, but also coming from a starting point of "DC Bad, Marvel Good", so it's like, we could've had it aaaaaaaaall.
Cassandra is in the Bridgerton fandom. She read the original books and liked them, so she was one of the first people watching the show. Most of her fandom stuff happens on Facebook with other book fans. Watching the show with her is fun until the exact second she says "well, in the BOOKS" and then rattles off a list of the most inconsequential changes, distracting you from a pivotal moment in the show and forcing you to rewind. She is very pressed about the seasons going out of order from the books.
Varric is a Critical Role evangelist. He was there when it started, he's listened to everything. He's listened to other real play podcasts and shows, but CR is his favorite. That's not annoying in and of itself, what's annoying is that he will not stop trying to get you to watch it. If you even breathe in the direction of a DnD-related topic he tries to give you "advice on where to start" with CR. His friends put up with it because he's their Forever DM and they love him, but he sure does do a lot more obnoxious sound effects now than he used to and they're planning an intervention about it.
Josephine is a Disney Adult. She seems normal and then bam, you get blindsided by something insane, like that she owns every single Disney character Funko Pop, or that she's gone to DisneyWorld for vacation every year for the last decade, or you go over to her house for dinner and find Hidden Mickeys in her bathroom, or she's really intense about pin collecting and limited edition mouse ear headbands. You wonder when she has the time and energy to collect all this. And there's more of it every time you see her. But the thing is that she's pretty quiet about it as long as you don't poke the bear. You know that she's seen every one of the new remakes in theaters, but you don't dare ask her opinion about them. Her favorite princess is Cinderella and she tells you "the original dress was silver" with exactly the same amount of excited did-you-know energy every time.
I hate to break this to you all, but Iron Bull is a Zack Snyder and Christopher Nolan fanboy. Yep. Yes he is. His toxic trait is that he shuts his brain off and just enjoys the gritty action sequences. He liked Batman v Superman. He bought the Snyder Cut. He thinks Nolan's Batman is the absolute best that franchise has ever been and ever could be. I'm sorry, it's heartbreaking but it's true. I know, I'm sad, too, we can hold each other.
Vivienne has been in the Anne Rice fandom under the same pseudonym for ever. She was one of the original fans and was much more active in fandom when she was much younger, but she made her fannish activities more and more private as she became more established in her career. You would honestly never know it meeting her IRL; at most, people come over for dinner parties and might notice that she owns every single Anne Rice book, but they're part of her overall book collection and don't really stand out. Secretly, though, she's been keeping up with the Anne Rice fandom under a pseudonym this whole time and goes to the more modern in-person events using her fake name. She might kill you if you ever connected her fandom activities to her real life in any way. She's also just, like, she's really bad at letting people be wrong about these books. Really, really, really bad. There are epic-length threads on old forums that are just her and one other similarly deranged person fighting about obscure Vampire Chronicles lore.
And finally, Blackwall is a Game of Thrones girlie. The show, not the books. He's one of those "I don't like fantasy but I like Game of Thrones" guys, and he thinks GoT is mold-breaking and special and better and grittier and more realistic than other fantasy and that's why he likes it. His most irritating fan trait is that he thought season 8 was good and that the ending was good and he likes to get into heated debates with other fans about it. However, he does not know what Reddit is, he only talks with other GoT-watchers in Facebook, which is why he and Solas haven't had the fight to end all friendships yet. Yet.
BONUS! Krem is into Star Wars and Scout Harding is a die-hard Trekkie, and they go to big cons and cosplay together. They're not annoying at all, I just wanted to mention it because I feel like that's in-character for them.
**also if you like this and think "i'm gonna give this fine person a follow because they're so funny about dragon age", i made a new DA sideblog at @skyholdstarbucks where i'd post anything similar to this in the future

Would Romanced!DAI Companions Duel for their Inquisitor?
It's heavily implied that the Inquisitor is female, so skip if that ain't your cup of tea. I have included Krem, Dagna, and Harding in this but left out Cassandra, Dorian, and Solas since... it's implied that the Inquisitor is a female... and a human one at that.
Sowwy.
Blackwall/Thom Rainer: It depends on whether or not his identity was released. Before, he’s more hesitant, but once he sees how upset his lover is with the news, he’s pissed. He fights for his lover, but not just to take their hand, more so to free his lover from the binds of an arranged marriage. After his identity is revealed, he’s worried that his claim will be even more scrutinized. But once again, if he sees his lover upset, he immediately challenges The Inquisitor’s betrothed. The fight may take a while, as he gets pretty upset when the man Blackwall/Rainer is dueling starts taunting or insulting him. 
Cullen Rutherford: Yes. So much yes. He’s furious. Especially when Josephine initially explains that there is very little they can do. The whole process would take a few months at the least, and there’s no guarantee that The Inquisitor would get out unscathed. It’s Leliana who drops the hint that if he duels The Inquisitor’s betrothed, Cullen can speed up the process and be home by sunset. He’s furious while fighting the betrothed, and it only gets worse when the man begins to taunt Cullen by claiming that such a country bumkin shouldn’t marry or interact with The Inquisitor. Cullen somehow keeps his cool long enough for The Inquisitor to arrive. After that, he’s angrily pouting and telling The Inquisitor that “you can’t marry them” and all that. He gets so upset that he ends up proposing right then and there.
Dagna: No, because she doesn’t think she can. She wants to help, but her area of expertise isn’t… that.
She turns to Josephine and asks for help, and within a month or two, The Inquisitor and Dagna are back together.
Iron Bull: He’s all over that. And he’s certain he can make pretty good work of this noble. Until he finds out he has to fight honorably and “can’t just rip the nobleman apart.” Which is kind of stupid.
He doesn’t realize it himself, that he’s fighting for his kadan just yet. He lies to himself and says that he’s only doing this so that The Inquisitor doesn’t have to worry about “more bullshit” and that he just really wants to fight. But if that was the case, he wouldn’t be practicing how to properly duel, and he wouldn’t be researching clever one liners to throw in every once in a while. It’s as the Inquisitor appears in the crowd, pushing away the nobles that block their path, that’s when Bull realizes two things.
He’s in love.
He did this whole thing because he loves The Inquisitor.
And he’s speechless when The Inquisitor asks him why he did this, and it takes a good lot of effort for him to finally choke out, “because I love you, kadan.”
Josephine Montilyet: Absolutely not, she would help the Inquisitor out of the engagement ASAP. But she wouldn’t dare pick up a sword. Not because she can’t fight, but more because she knows there’s a peaceful solution to this, one that doesn’t involve swords.
Krem: Yeah, in fact, it’s one of the first things he does. The second he finds out all he has to do is duel the bastard that’s taking away his lover. It’s done. Of course, if The Inquisitor barges in, Krem’s all apologetic so he’s just spewing apologies but he’s able to confess his love for the Inquisitor while he’s at it.
Scout Harding: Yes. Like Krem, she sees this as the best way to take care of this engagement. She hates to admit it, but she ends up getting some sword lessons from Cassandra, who finds out and is all over the romantic idea of dueling for someone’s love. If The Inquisitor ends up arriving at the fight, Harding ends up confessing, completely red in the face while she explains how she couldn’t let her lover go to someone else other than her.
Sera: Yes, but she does it dirty. She messes with The Inquisitor’s betrothed, puts itching powder in their breeches, grease on the sword handle, and somehow knows all the damn gossip about their entire family. It’s sort of funny, watching the poor sod trip over himself because Sera tied their bootlaces together… wait how did she do that?
She’s unapologetic, even to Inky. She explains that some prissy pants noble wasn’t gonna take away her sweetness.
Varric Tethras: Yes, and he lies to himself and everyone else by saying some bullshit about how “amazing this would be for the story.” But he’s very upset. He already had someone taken away from him for the same damn reasons, but he had no power the last time. This time, he can do something, save the girl (or guy,) and he doesn’t have to back down. He hates to admit it, especially out loud, but if The Inquisitor stops the duel halfway through, Varric can’t help but give some sappy “they can’t have you because I love you” speech.

Horns up!!! I was commissioned by @beastlybeverages to design Dragon Age charms of Dorian, Krem and (the) Iron Bull. These are available as 3.5 inch charms for pre-order until June 21st, so get them HERE while you can! 
(If these do well, we'll be making Varric, Anders, Alistair and Fenris too!)
[Image descriptions:
1: Krem standing up behind Iron bull and making horn gestures with his fingers while Bull flexes. They’re both grinning/
2: A 3/4 view bust of Dorian, eyes glowing purple with three skulls behind him swirling with necromantic energy
3: Krem prously holding up a trans flag behind him
4: Iron Bull smugly crossing his arms to make his pecs look bigger, with a banner under him saying “pillowy man-bosoms fan club.”]

Okay okay okay time to make a res quest bc it has been A While(tm).l (and I’m hoping I read all your rules right). So for Dragon Age: Fenris, Krem, the Iron Bull, and Zevran with a mainly healer s/o? Like S/O knows how to fight, but prefers being on the back lines, and is a generally very nurturing person 💛 thanks Kat
Mainly Healer S/O
Fandom: Dragon Age
Characters: Fenris, Krem, Iron Bull, Zevran
Type of Request: Headcanons
Notes: You did great babes!!
Tumblr media
Fenris
Definitely prefers your healing to any mage that he knows. Does have a bias towards you so that helps.
Fenris does try to get out of you healing him though. He knows that’s your job and you care about his safety, but he prefers you to wait should something happen to you. He’s had his fair share of wounds, he will be fine.
It is a bit unnerving how gentle you are when you take care of him. He’s just not used to being cared for, but he does enjoy it very much.
Just stares at you in silence as you heal him. It’s an intimate feeling and he is trying to process how he feels. He likes it, but it’s just so new and raw that he might pull away. Give him some time and then he’ll gladly let you take care of him.
The Iron Bull
I mean, he’ll let you tend to his wounds any time. Well, maybe not any time as there are definitely bad times, but you get the picture.
Is glad that you do know how to fight just in case an enemy sneaks over to you. He’ll gladly spar with you just to make sure you’re not getting rusty.
Anything can happen on a battlefield and he wants to make sure you’re okay if he can’t make it to you.
Can’t help sending you cheesy lines when you do heal him. How you have a magic touch or something like that. He is thankful that you take care of him.
Krem
He doesn’t go on the battlefield as often, mostly sticking to what Bull needs of him. So you always get words of encouragement before you’re needed since you two are going to be away for a bit.
Can’t help but worry about you. He knows you can take care of yourself, but he still makes you promise that you’ll be safe. And he’ll do try to do the same for you.
Does get slightly flustered when you’re healing him. He knows he shouldn’t considering your relationship, but it just feels intimate to him to let you so close and give him life back.
Would never voice this out loud since he doesn’t need to get teased by the rest of the Chargers for being a romantic.
Zevran
Thinks it’s perfect that you like to stay in the back considering he likes getting up close and personal.
Does his best to take care of enemies so they don’t have a chance to focus on you with attacks. Is glad that you’re able to fight because he’s not always able to keep you safe unfortunately.
Has taught you some dirty fighting techniques he knows. Sure you can fight, but sometimes it’s better to throw dirt in an enemies face or trip them up. Who cares about honor when your life is on the line.
Another one to deliver cheeky lines when you do heal him. Has absolutely pretended to have injuries in hopes you’d just kiss his “wounded” cheek.

Playing DA2 and the Qunari guard called me Bashra Vashedan and I thought it was odd since I know Bull when his boys are dead will call you Bas, so I looked it up:
Bas: Literally, "thing;" foreign to the Qun; purposeless. Often used as a neutral term to describe non-Qunari people, in the same manner as "foreigner" or "stranger".
Basra: Rude term for non-Qunari people.
Vashedan: Crap (literally "refuse" or "trash."); A common profanity.
Man called me a piece of shit trash!!
Also calls into view that reeducators/Qun is truly terrifying. We know Bull loves the Chargers, loves Krem and he accepts they were his men and a decision was made and he followed it (as he was born and bred to do), he is able to disconnect his feelings so entirely that he feels nothing.
Not immediately, this shows when Cole breaks everyones hearts by telling him Krems last thought and clearly that hurts Bull but instead of making him spiral, it reinforces the idea of the Qun more.
When Bull states that its nothing personal and calls you Bas, he means it, truly it was nothing personal, he does not hold you responsible because you are nothing, he does not hold himself responsible because there is nothing to be held responsible for--some people died for the good of the Qun, that is all.
So well done is this dug into Bulls mind that Cole does not see Trespasser coming because Cole only senses and sees sorrow and hurt: things he can fix, things you regret; Bull doesn't.
That is what a cult does to a persons mind.
