'I feel like a blade sharpened all these years to confront the worst darkness in the world.'

'And my blade struck true at Weisshaupt. What now?'

What can I say

I love to see big guy crumble

It was Morrrigan’s story of the Mirror she coveted that Flemeth destroyed. I was already into her from her attitude and looks. But the mirror story just revealing and linking to why these exterior attitudes exist and the human beneath them.

Presumably. I have yet to see it dominated. I imagine the sight would be… fascinating.

The way I swooned when I heard that. 🥵

My Emmrich moment is absolutely "What remains of *them* will be put to work." Anders was also his entrance (in Awakenings...if Templars have no haters, I'm dead), and Sera was "Breeches".

I actually went in planning to avoid Lucanis at all costs as I assumed he was going to be very 'crow' but I changed my mind so fast seeing how soft and yearning he is. Its hard to pinpoint the exact moment as I didn't plan to fall so hard for a fictional character as a middle aged woman 🤣🤣

It was love at first sight. The look, the voice, the charisma...

Writing smutty things about him ever since.
Speaking of it, I just posted the next chapter 10 minutes ago 🖤❤️🖤❤️

Oddly, it took a few replays. I resisted by focusing on Emmrich and Harding, but it was inevitable. There was only so many times I could listen to him purring in my damn ear before I gave in. 😅

That moment in the Chantry where you first meet Dorian. I knew I had to romance him, and the first prototype of what would become my boy Davrien was created once I found out Dorian was gay. Dorian became my favourite romance and he and Davrien are now my OTP

"I have made this place a sanctum of healing and salvation" god from the first line...i was gone. The drama, the flair the gender. I hadn't played awakening so it was like a flashbang grenade to the heart !

Uhh 😅 kinda straight away, silly dumpling boy with pointy ears

But also hearing his lore on spirits and interest in the fade and such really hit with my main oc, and his voice, and his storyline, just…. Ahhhh I fell as hard as my oc did 😮‍💨

I've been playing Origins for so long, I literally can't remember, but I know it took me a few runs to successfully romance Leliana and then I was ruined for any other Origins romance forever. Knowing myself and my love for that scene I'm gonna guess it was "the stars are out".

As much as they admire being wet and watching water, they cannot swim lol

Xochitl was able to swim up until the head injury at the beginning of the game, and is able to do so again after Emmrich confirms she's fully disconnected from Solas's, ah, 'influence'.

Not being able to swim while sailing on ships with the Lords would definitely not be a smart move, after all.

Regardless of how it works in the game, can your OC swim?

Tait couldn’t swim and avoided the sea since her escape from the Venatori galley. She was confronted by her fear again when she rescued Lucanis in the Ossuary, which led to the team (mainly Taash and Davrin, plus Lucanis for moral support) giving her like a weekly training in Rivain.

herja can't swim and was never taught. wasn't like vorgoth could slap on some trunks and help, nor is it part of the curriculum at the necropolis.

after having to fish her out of a river or pond or puddle one too many times, i think ONE of the veilguard has to pull her aside to teach her post-datv.

i think casull is the only one who *can't* swim. he has a phobia of water deeper than his ankles after the other children in his village tried to drown him in the local pond when he presented with magic.

Marcus grew up in Minrathous, which is close to the shore. It would have been dangerous if he was never taught how to swim. So yes, he can swim.

Matteo can swim too. As a Crow it would have been part of his training, plus Treviso is surrounded by water as well. Marcus (and Illario) taught him.

I like to think most of my guys can swim, except for my Rooks who all come out of the water looking like wet cats
