Character parallels - Tabris Origin | Loghain Mac Tir

"I see that the path that led you here was not easy. There is suffering in your past: your suffering, and the suffering of others. By the time you reached Shianni, she was broken, brutalized – you were too late. Tell me, pilgrim, did you fail Shianni?" "Teyrn Loghain Mac Tir, the brilliant commander. Pity the one time you tried to rule, you failed so miserably. You had to be beaten, humiliated, lest you destroy your own country. You even doomed the Wardens by bringing the Inquisitor down on them. You destroy everything you touch."

#dragon age #dragon age origins #da:o #loghain mac tir #warden tabris #kallian tabris #my stuff #this doesnt look my own tabris at all lol BUT #kristen stewart would deliver a world-weary tabris so well #i know loghain can parallel any of the wardens #but there's something about kallian tabris that just makes it COMPLETE #and its also why i love anora becoming queen and bestowing that title #it just makes SO much sense for it to come from her #to use the myth of her father to create a new one #youre stepping into loghain's shoes. you're taking his mantle #and the knowledge of his fate dangling over your head #of what he became #how both the warden and loghain have death seem to be dead from the start #heroes living past their time!!! #anyway this got out of control #but point is: #tabris and anora and loghain and the weird chain of mythology and legend my BELOVEDS

it's not like alistair is wrong at the landsmeet. it is bullshit if you recruit loghain. at that point you don't even know that only a warden can kill the archdemon (riordan i do have to say that is a day one discussion not a night before the climactic battle discussion) and alistair has been at your side this whole journey... like if i'm him tbh fuck you. you killed marjolaine for leliana and flemeth for morrigan and like a ton of other people but you're not gonna kill The Guy?? you're stopping now??

#just that conversation you can have in the epilogue... he's RIGHT what DO we have to say to each other anymore #i like this i think when i first played the game (well i mean the first time i killed loghain but i mean years ago) i was like #'why do people say morrigan betrays you when alistair literally does it first' but if you think about it for three seconds... he was right. #the whole landsmeet is so fucked. i support that btw the writing is good #anyway the da:o run lives in my brain i might write something for this warden #just for fun :)

Um, you find the girl from Alola, but ...they are sick? Don’t worry, Lani is ok....kind of.

Just a quick comic about my Alolan oc Lani who somehow got sent back in time to Hisui. They are definitely high energy and have a lot of survival skills , but a terrible  attention span.

Sorry this part is really long.

I think it's really funny how Joel and Etho didn't actually die from taking double damage like Scott said. Etho died before he even hit the ground, Joel went a lot higher than Pearl had been going, and then Joel missed his water bucket. They would have died even if they didn't bring Etho into the chain so it was more or less Joel's own fault for deciding to tempt fate.

#like yeah pearl and grian are somewhat to blame for being a bit misleading about how dangerous the game was #but like. they had JUST killed the freaking warden in this exact same way a whole two hours earlier #what i'm saying is that everyone involved was being the same level of idiotic and reckless #and i love them for it i live for the drama #double life smp #dlsmp #double life spoilers #trafficblr #smallishbeans #double life joel #ethoslab #double life etho #double life session 4 #my post

once again. plagued bu 1.0 WoL thoughts !

#owen plays ffxiv #no yeah no I’m a big obssessed with her being deep in the aetherial sea—how she is a keeper and guide to the souls there #the ones lost along the way—the ones stuck in the depths with no intention to leave #she is the Keeper of the Mother—the warden of the souls of the deep #she’s an odd little shard of azem—maybe the truest expression of charon in a fashion #what she ultimately becomes as shepherd to the everlasting dead #she will be the last to fade into oblivion along with the aetherial sea #the last light. the last sound in the universe before it all Ends #it was a role she took with her free will—hydaelyn gave her a choice to return or to endure in some manner of her choosing #gosh a lot of my 1.0 WoL’s death has informed her life sjdjdjdjd #but when eyrie died in UT she caught their soul before it could fully sink #and how she cradled them. this familiar spark #the one which set her free of bahamut #and she could not forsake them—not this soft light so alike to the glow of her own soul #she tethered them back to their flesh. knitted the ties together once more and bade them Live #she would not see them again until their correct time #utterly changing topics but she minds Amon and Asahi—even in their most wretched depths she sees them #watches their rage and despair and hopes one day time will soothe their hurts or time will wear them both to dust #scattering their aether to nothing to become everything #they will never again be people #but yeah ! i love making my own silly lil dress up dolls all deeply connected to each other sjsjdjd #endwalker spoilers

I love going on ao3 and seeing the two most random media properties smashed together because someone loves them both enough to make a crossover. Like hell yeah!! Live your Hannibal spongebob SquarePants dreams random ao3 author

#post inspired by my romp through the tutu tag on ao3 recently #also me getting really into dragon age and princess tutu at the same time #I was like what if I jokingly made a tutu gray wardens au #which doesn’t make any got damn sense but #but then I started thinking about the lore and it was like oh this FUCKS #the world of dao is too cruel for my precious children though :( #sad! oh well into the meat grinder they go #you have 10 years left to live princess tutu children #(though I aged them up to young adults because no 14 year old is getting conscripted I HOPE) #lea talks #if anyone cares I’m always down to ramble about the dumb aus I come up with

i dont look up new minecraft mobs i just meet a bee or a fox or a camel and cry from joy or a warden and shit my pants

#that first warden experience got live blogged i cried it was great #i walked into the skulk and was like of neat whats this #saw a big glowy thing and was like OH NEAT #things were clicking and i got ascared #and then he came and was too big to fit where i was so i thought i was safe #NO! sonic scream :D #ranged attacks will get me every goddamn time #this is my fatal flaw in every game ever if i cant see u u got me

[sovaharbor]

honestly the worst thing abt this tho is that as much as i am attached to that worldstate i KNOW i cannot use it in da4 because ive just. wriggled my claws in so deep and for inqusition especially there is sooo much i've changed bc the writing in inquisition drives me BONKERS. so like. i just know whatever they say in da4 i am probably just inherently going to hate, so i NEED to work on a new worldstate (and i am actively attempting to) but ..... guh. effort.

#it's just problematic bc all the wardens i WANT to play are like. inherently canon divergent. like i want an m!cousland. #but i NEED him to romance alistair. and i want an f!tabris. but again i NEED her to romance morrigan. theyve lived in my head so long so. #i cant divert atp. but ive thought abt like....m!aeducan or a different f!tabris maybe. idk. it's just. im So attached to this specific #worldstate and it's my own damn fault for making eimhin so canon divergent #BUT CAN YOU BLAME ME????? THE ORIGINS IN DAI ARE SO WEEEAAAAAAAAK I HAD TO FIX IT MYSELF. #and i just loved the juxtaposition of a dalish elf inundated w/ assimilation/religious baggage being forced to lead an andrastian force. so #(no i did not put my own baggage onto eimhin. what r u talking abt. noooo waaaaaayyy.) #ANYWAYS UMMMM yeah. also if marian's my canon hawke i feel obligated to go garrett for the Actually Canon Worldstate. #and i am probably still going to make my canon inquisitor a lavellan bc. um. i love them. idc. #also hell hath no fury like a lavellan scorned by solas. she will KILL that awful awful man #summer's text tag #ok im done idk why im so brainrotted for dragon age all of a sudden sorryyyyyy #edit: no im not done actually. #f!tabris and leliana? m!hawke and anders? f!lavellan and solas? #idk what class for hawke thooo...... im torn btwn rogue n mage. #umm maybe mage actually. bc i wanna go warrior tabris/mage hawke/rogue lavellan. yeah. Yeah. spicy. #sure this works i think i like this

#ramblings of a lunatic #the owl house #toh #GIRL #THE NUMBERS??? #idk what the analytics for thanks to thems first week was #I'd probably have a good chance finding out if i went back and found some posts from around that time #or maybe it was quoted in the Connecticut Insidet interview that Dana did not long after the episode dropped? #but that same article said that the viewcount on ttt was enough to make disney notice the sheer viewership the show got #and thus how badly they messed up cancelling toh #whatever the numbers for ttt were i doubt they were as WILD as watching and dreamings have been #and if ttt numbers were enough to make them notice then maybe. MAYBE i can delude myself into hoping #that they recognize this wild response for what it is #^ another day another me living in a delusional fantasy world where the corporate wardens of my fav IPs will throw me a bone

hard to play dragon age with a new character bc im just completely head over heels in love with my warden. I think about them and im like yep this is it, let’s pack it up and go home

#dragon age #followed people for cousland talk today which made me want to play a cousland #I want to make different choices!! I want to see parts of the game I haven’t seen before!! also the human noble origin is my second favorite #I just find the story so SAD. everyone you knew and lived has been killed and you’re conscripted into the wardens whether you like it or not #you can spend the whole origin saying you want to be in the wardens and you can get your wish in the worst way possible #or you can spend the whole time saying you’d rather stay home and be forced to join them against your will #and now your family’s dead so what do you have left!! nothing. you were betrayed by your father’s friend and for what?? #power? land? jealousy? how much does any of that matter in the face of a BLIGHT?? i just like it #all of the origins are fantastic stories but ive thought a lot about this one for someone without a cousland warden #aaaanyway trying to decide what my new guy will do with his life. I like to have a plan. I love this game #also trying NOT to make him similar to my main warden cause I want things to be DIFFERENT!! let him make bad choices it’s fine

I've now finished DA:I and have a completed World State in the Keep for DA4. I will say that, out of the three games (Origins, 2, and Inquisition) I think that the Inquisition party feels the closest to me. Like they're the ones I feel would actually want to stay together after all was said and done, helped I think by the fact that so many say that's what they want (with Sera almost starting to cry if you have the Inquisitor tell her that Skyhold will always be her home if she needs it). With Origins, it really felt like everyone was there and working together purely because of the mission to stop the blight and no other reason. With 2, it felt like they were there and working together because they lived in Kirkwall and wanted to make their lives easier. But with Inquisition, everyone who was there chose to be there, and sure it was for a cause . . . but also we got bonding scenes like them playing Wicked Grace together, or eating cookies up on rooftops. Even when they fought with each other, I felt a real closeness there. Like it was them against the world (which it kind of ends up being during the Exalted Council).

Of course, this is just all my opinion, and it's possible that this had something to do with how the personalities of each character developed over my playthroughs, as well as the fact that I found it a bit hard to track people down in Kirkwall sometimes and as such didn't bond with my companions as much as I would have wanted. (RIP Fenris, I missed the opportunity to do your character quest and so you died 😔). But at the end of DA:I Trespasser, I had the Inquisition stay together not just because that's what my Trevelyan wanted (as making the world a better place / helping people is very important to her), but also because I didn't want to see the squad break up, even though they had to break up a little due to responsibilities elsewhere in the world anyway. It's just how they made me feel.

#for those wondering - you know the Blue - Purple - Red metric in DA2? that's kind of how my characters were #with my Warden being Red - Hawke Purple - and Inquisitor Blue #Lyra Mahariel did NOT want to be a Warden and did NOT want to fight the blight and did NOT want to be there #she also never wanted to be Warden-Commander either. she bounced as soon as she could to find an end to the calling #bc she also doesn't want to die from smth she had no choice in #her opinion was ''fuck this fuck you fuck everything'' and she was not afraid to kill at all #meanwhile Briar Hawke was snarky and 100% the type to bant in the face of death. she did what she had to for her family & friends #she didn't do what she did bc of some sense of justice or obligation; she did it bc she fucking lived there (there being Kirkwall) #and she really just wanted things to settle down so she could have some drinks and play Wicked Grace w/ her friends #unfortunately things didn't always work out that way but hey. at least she could quip while dealing with the issues #and lastly Lucia Trevelyan lived a sheltered and also mostly easy life as the youngest noble in her family #whom no one really expected anything of and she also expected nothing from herself #so it was hard to believe at first that she was Chosen - but she and her family are faithful so she did #and even when the truth came out she kept it up bc she wanted to believe that there was *some* reason for this and even if there wasn't #her sheltered life led her to be sickened by needless violence and killing and she wanted to make the world a better place #she was gentle when the world let her be. kind when the world let her be. #even now she just wants to help. she got a long great w/ Cole tbh

Wynne can try to kill you on multiple occasions and in the restored content, will publocally confront you for using Blood Magic right in front of the templars after the tower's liberation. I think the fandom got who the betrayal mage in Orgins is all wrong...

*This Post has been brought to you by Lesbians Of The Poison Swamp for Morrigan*

#does Morrigan at any point attempt to fight and kill the warden? she kinda does the opposite offering a radical solution to save you and #others lives and tells you exactly what it does as a dark magic ritual. #I thought Bringing Morrigan to the circle would be funny and when she spoke Wynne tried to kill us #my first playthru of errors..... #this isn't hate like she doesn't actually lie and walk off like Anders and Solas but

Literally the theme of CHOICE gets me so much in DAO. I run with it a lot for my Warden.

I don’t think the recurrence of the idea of CHOICE is an accident. It’s an RPG with a lot of choices to make. The reigns are yours. You have a freedom to act with mercy or not. But it’s present in so many conversations and I don’t have them memorized so I can only introduce small snippets.

Everytime one of your companions mentions not having a say in an important part of their lives I lose it because the necessity for people to have a choice in their lives is SUCH an important thing for my Warden so like when it’s mentioned I’m like hell yeah. Coversations with Sten about the Qun and how those that are a part of the Qun don’t really have a say in who they are. Alistair constantly goes on about him not having a choice when it comes to being sent off to the Chantry, or the whole business with being king. A lot of conversations with Wynne about your responsibilities have her mention how you may not have a choice. I don’t remember the exact context or quotes but I remember once Zevran says something along the line (it’s not like he had a say in becoming a Crow).

In some cases companions will ask you as the Warden what you want them to do and you can ask them what THEY want to do, giving THEM the choice. And even again in some cases the Warden can mention how THEY don’t exactly have a  choice with this Grey Warden business. (I always play my Mage character so even there, they didn’t have a choice to be gifted or cursed with magic, they didn’t have a choice about being sent to the Tower).

It really gets me man. It’s just *chefs kiss*. (I’m not eloquent I don’t have my sources lined up or a proper analysis you just gotta trust me man).

#one time valynne lost a lot of approval because she asked morrigan what SHE wanted to do in terms of staying. and i just had to accept that #because thats what my warden would do. she wants everyone to have their choice in their lives #dragon age
