What are your thoughts on the Dragon Age: Dreadwolf announcement? :D
We knew very little about Bioware’s plans for the next game when we met with them to plot the comics. But we did know that the Dread Wolf was going to be a major player.
So even though we know things have changed and evolved since then, we’re not surprised at the title. We didn’t know this would be the title, but it doesn’t surprise us.
Beyond that, we’re very excited. Not just because this means he’s still going to be a major player, but mostly because we’re now one step closer to the new game!

New DA comic just dropped*
Cullen and Anders fall in love in Kinloch Hold. Everything falls apart, but they pull each other back together again.
(*A fake comic book cover I created for my fic All This and Heaven Too, which covers all three games and diverges quite hectically from canon you can find the link in comments!)

Foods of Thedas: Comics
So, while you wait for the multi-post compilation of food, I thought I could share the stuff I'm grabbing stuff from the newest comics - Magekiller, Knight Errant, Deception, and Blue Wraith. Those comics being the only ones with food clearly displayed. There are some that are pretty easy to identify, some that aren’t.
So, I’ve gathered some images and I’ve shoved it below the cut cause this post is long and image heavy.
Croissants in Deception.
Continuing with Deception, this is taking place in Tevinter. We see figs, pears, grapes, a gourd or squash of some type, and purple fruits up front that I shouldn’t hazard a guess with (I’m banking on dates or currants).
Cupcakes, cookies, and what looks to be sugar cake and chocolate cake. (Magekiller)
Same scene as previous. This platter has candy canes, macaroons, more cupcakes, some type of cookies, what looks to be an “old fashioned” donut and another croissant. (Magekiller)
This is a scene in Kirkwall, featuring tomatoes, sausage, salad, roast bird (I’m guessing turkey, yellow rind cheese, and some sort of topped cookie. (Knight Errant)
This shot is from Starkhaven. We see suckling pig, grapes, apples, orange rind cheese, another platter of meat that is hard to identify. (Knight Errant)
Same scene as the previous panel from a different angle. This including bananas, grapes, apples, orange, an orange rind and a yellow-brown rind cheese. (Knight Errant)
This image and the next two I find interesting. They’re all in the same market, Edgehall in Ferelden. What is interesting to me is that they clearly have bananas, pears, and oranges. Fruits that need warmer weather and also longer growing seasons. Oranges and Pears are possible in Ferelden though, if they do espalier. Which I talk about in this post. Essentially, it’s a trellising method where you prune growing trees so they are more 2 dimensional, usually placed against walls. This allows them to be more productive, easier to manage, and by placing them against warm brick walls, allows them to survive colder climates. It does takes a few years to reach a “mature” tree that way, but the benefits are substantial.
Canonically we only espalier in Orlais, specifically in Val Royeaux. Even then they seem more decorative. But given the amount of warm climate fruit readily available in Ferelden, I’m betting they also practice it.
As for the other produce in the market we see in this image, it looks like potatoes, Vaea is wheeling a cart of red fruit (apples I think) and someone else is selling a crate of red fruit as well. (Knight Errant)
Following Vaea through the market we see sausage, some more cured meat hanging from the shops, oranges, pots of seasoning that looks to be either sugar or salt. And an semi-hard cheese. (Knight Errant)
Last panel for Edgehall’s market, we see more potatoes, apples, and pears with a few strings of garlic and sacs of food. (Knight Errant)
These last three images are clear shots of food that I honestly only have theories for and are thus speculative.
Through out Deception, you see these rolls of green things on the table. I have no idea what they might be. They do make me think of that food dolma, stuffed grape leaves. But I can’t say for sure. (Hello Dorian)
Unidentified meat, probably a type of poultry leg, and what looks to either be flat bread or something green. (Deception)
Then there is this cheese, and I’m thinking it’s either Gouda or Edam, which like Gouda is a semi-hard dutch cheese. They often have the same wine and food pairings. (Blue Wraith)

praying that you both will be working on a Dragon Age comic in the future! 🙏 love your work.
No specific plans in the near future, but if Bioware (and Dark Horse) ever want any more DA comics, we're happy to take up the reins again.
Thanks for the support!
