FINALLY I have my main 3 together. My Warden Surana, Hawke and Lavellan.
Though DAI was my first game in the series, Origins and DA2 really solidified my love for it all. Iāve made so many great friends thanks to these games. Itās given me so much inspiration in so many aspects especially creatively. I havenāt even played Veilguard yet and Iām in love with it (bestie streamed it live for me from character creation to the end). Iāve spoken before about each of my girlies and why I love them and their respective game so I wonāt get into it again else weād be here all day lol
Shout out to the fic writers and artists who make these games even more enjoyable. Who inspire me to write and draw againš yāall are the best

Please keep interacting with this post because when I come to tumblr to procrastinate, this shows up again in my notifications and guilts me into writing again
the veilguard codex entries are truly such a fucked up collectible. this whole time i thought i was the one who fucked up when i still only had 80 something percent by the end of the game, but no. the game is just fully counting impossible to collect cut content in that percentage.
after some poking around in the game files, it turns out it isn't even just cut content. some of the things counted as missing in your codex completion percentage:
notes that were seemingly at some point categorized as codex entries that later got moved to missives, so you can't get them as codex entries anymore and their slots in the codex simply remain blank forever
codex entries that were originally filed in one category then got moved to another category but STILL count towards the original category's completion percentage even though they will never appear there
and there are quite a few cut codex entries that also count against your completion percentage, including things like:
multiple messages about emmrich meeting harding's ma
Dearest Lace,
I have to say, your letters arrive more reliably than they did when you were at Skyhold. Those magic elven mirrors must make things so much easier. I still don't know if I'd be brave enough to go through one of them myself, though.
It was wonderful to meet your friends Emmrich and Manfred. Emmrich was lovely, and very interested in my garden. You needn't have worried about my reaction to Manfred. I'm from Ferelden. I've seen walking skeletons. None nearly as polite as Manfred, of course. Remember what happened to Redcliffe during the Fifth Blight? Some of those undead wandered beyond the village and into the surrounding farmland. I had to run one down with my pony so it wouldn't attack a herd of goats.
You must tell me the next time your friends are planning to visit. I'll have pie ready.
Love, Ma.
A note from Harding, attached to a collection of bottles:
Hi, Emmrich! Here's those mushroom samples for your alchemy supplies. I wrote down what my ma uses them all for. You should visit her again. I think she really likes you (and Manfred). Called you "those lovely gentlemen from Nevarra." (I bet Manfred would enjoy being called a gentleman.) I think she's flattered you're so interested in what she knows about plants. But maybe don't tell her you're searching for "the formula to a more efficient coagulant," though? She's just going to give you this cure-all remedy I got when I was little. It tastes like soap burning.
more notes which seem like they'd go with solas memories that the devs ran out of time/money for (which would explain the last two memory statues not having memories associated with them)
I'm keeping calm in front of the new recruits, but you've been dodging me for weeks now. We need to talk about the lyrium dagger.
Yes, it's powerful. So is an erupting volcano, and nobody would try to harness that for power. (Well, maybe Andruil, but do you really want to be compared to Andruil?) We need to stop the Evanuris, but I'd rather we didn't destroy the world in the process. If you're certain you can control its power, tell me that. In those words. No equivocating.
Also, you and I both know what this dagger means to you. I don't cast my best spells when my spirit is unbalanced. Do you? (That's a real question. Maybe you do!)
I'm with you no matter what.
āFelassan
People of Arlathan, hear the words of Fen'Harel. The Evanuris intend to tighten the chains that bind you. They are infusing lyrium into warriors not gifted with the sense of magic. This has not been done since the Great War, when honored knights willingly sacrificed their own flesh in defense of the people.
But what enemy will the lyrium knights defend you from? The Forgotten Ones? They have fled the empire. Me? I am only a danger to the powerful. No, the lyrium knights are meant to defend against you, to stifle resistance and protect the Evanuris.
Would real gods need protection from their own worshippers?
You were right. The Evanuris did not like the insinuation that they need protection. The good news is that public sentiment has turned against the lyrium knights, and our agents got information that let us destroy one of the sarcophagi.
The bad news is that Andruil and Ghilan'nain made a big show of putting down a protest in the east personally instead of sending the knights. Andruil left a crater where the town stood, and Ghilan'nain is using the people taken prisoner as fodder for her experiments.
This isn't your fault, but still, this is exactly what I was worried about. It's not enough to be right about these things. We have to think about the consequences.

a note from emmrich after rook gets stuck in the fade that doesn't seem to be something you can acquire in game
I have conferred with Vorgoth and Myrna, and our extended notes on your experience within Regret's grasp are available. But as your friend, I offer a gentle summary.
Solas could not escape the cage he built until he traded places with you. That suggests the regret at the core of the cage, however personal it felt, was also his. He recognized the impact of Varric's fate on you because he felt it as well.
It was this similarity that he manipulated, possibly in your earliest conversations. The initial denialāfor your mind to retreat from the shock of the momentāno one could fault you for that. But Solas capitalized upon it, and his treatment echoes an ancient blood magic we still cannot fathom.
I would offer, however, that your escape shows the true difference in how you and Solas suffered this regret. Solas escaped through evasion. In many ways, he addressed Varric's fate as he did the problem of the Fade: a puzzle to be navigated or, where possible, denied.
But when you were confronted with the truth, you movedāas you saidāforward. And in doing so, your chains of regret went slack.
An immortal life founded in denial risks becoming an endless collection of loss. It would appear that, in the shadow of eternity, a god might regret but cannot accept.
I pity him.
āA note from Emmrich
codex entries about davrin and harding merely being "missing" instead of fully dead
Dearest Ma,
Things are finished, and we won, but I don't think it's over. Because it's never really over.
We lost Davrin and Assan (the griffon). But they're not dead, just gone, for now. I need that to be true.
I think it could've been me. It's complicated, but we both volunteered for something. If it had been me missing, I know they wouldn't give up, so I won't either.
This probably doesn't make a whole lot of sense to you. I'll explain better soon. I just needed to write, because writing to you always helps me clear my head. I could never do what I do without knowing that you were back home, rooting for me. For all of us.
Lots of love, Lace
Dear Rook,
Emmrich and Taash told me about Lace. They talked about what you've all been through. I cannot begin to understand any of it, but I have to believe I'll see my daughter walk through our front door again. One day.
Don't blame yourself for what happened. I know my Lace, and I know whatever she did, she did willingly. For her friends.
Don't give up. She wouldn't.
āHarding's Ma
I sought out Taash today, to ask if they wanted to accompany me to Ferelden and break the news of Harding's disappearance to her mother. I'd expected a curt nod or short acknowledgement. Instead, they were so relieved, they looked as if they might cry. Taash had already been planning on going, and thought they'd have to do it themselves! Alone!
We'll go together. We shall swear to Harding's mother that we'll find her daughter or, more likely, her daughter will find her way back to us first.
āFrom Emmrich's diary
I keep turning my head every time I go past Davrin's room. I never thought I'd give anything to hear that dreadful squawking noise Assan makes before he settles down for the night, or one of Davrin's droll remarks on necromancy.
Yet if anyone can survive wherever they've vanished, it's the Warden who killed an Archdemon and the griffon he saved. I will not spurn hope. Not for this.

Dragon age origins is likeā¦. Youāre nineteen, new in town, and itās your second day at pizza hut. You donāt even know how to work the register yet and you just watched your manager get carted off by the paramedics. You have no contact info for him, his next of kin, or corporate. The only other employee is the guy whoās been here for two weeks and is a bit of a doofus, and neither of you really know what youāre supposed to do now. You both desperately need this job though, and the doofus at least has a drivers license and *kiiinda* knows how to use the oven so you just. Shrug, and start taking orders and making pizzas and praying to god that the bills are on autopay.
And weirdly enough youāre really good at this: making pizzas and dealing with shitty customers and breaking up fights in the parking lot and pretending to be Duncanās cousin on the phone so the utility company doesnāt cut off the power. But running a store is a lot of work for two dumb kids, so slowly you start accumulating a bunch of competent weirdos to help out, like the nun who left her convent because god told her to help you make pizzas, and the elderly school teacher who just survived a mass shooting, and the guy the papa johns down the street hired to run you over. And really thereās no way any of this should be working as well as it is - youāre absolutely committing fraud of some kind here - but youāve managed to dodge the landlord every time heās stopped by, and the health inspector never shows up to tell you to stop letting your dog hang out behind the counter and youāre all still kinda looking at each other and asking āare we allowed to just do this?ā before shrugging again and continuing to make pizzas, until somehow, through a series of unlikely technicalities, your doofus coworker ends up on the ballot for governor.
And after like five months of this the regional manager wanders in out of nowhere and youāre sure heās about to chew your ass out for this mess, but it turns out heās pretty chill and honestly kind of impressed with how you managed to keep the place up and running all on your own. So now youāre all thinking āthank god, thereās someone here who actually knows how to run a Pizza Hutā only for him to get hit by a car two days later on the night of the Super Bowl.
But your headcanon isn't popular? You're afraid you maybe your portrayal is a little out of character? Maybe you feel like you're not good at it, or never finish anything? You're worried your rare pair won't make sense to anyone else?
Who gives a shit. If you feel the urge to write, if you like doing it, please just do it. You don't have to share it if you don't want to. It can be something fun you do for yourself, if nothing else.
Life is hard enough without robbing yourself of opportunities for joy.
Every time I think I might return to fandom stuff, a white woman mentions how she doesnāt care that a character of color is described as dark or brown or whatever because itās fiction and she will see them as she wants to, aka sheāll make every character of color white. When itās not that, itās white washed fan art or just straight up ai bullshit.
Dear friends in Australia, please read this and spread the information contained. With temperatures above 43 degrees and over 100 fire incidents occurring, this could be life or death for people to see.
If you are not Australian, simply passing on this message helps.
Catastrophic and Extreme fire warnings and what to do:
Victoria has declared a state of disaster and has multiple Catastrophic fire warnings
Canberra is facing Extreme fire warnings
NSW is facing Very High and Extreme fire warnings
Queensland may be facing a cyclone
Most states in Australia have areas that are in the āExtreme, take action now to protect your lifeā state. Please take appropriate precautions against the fires.
This involves:
Packing a go-bag with essentials in case you need to leave
Going to the most fire-safe building that you can. If your home is not fire-ready, it may be time to visit a friend.
If you cant, areas like shopping centres and community areas tend to be safer as well.
Telling somebody where you are / where you are going
As temperatures heat up, your health may also be at risk. When the ambient temperature is more than a fever, staying cool can be a life or death decision.
Drink plenty of water
Have icy food like icy poles or zooper doopers
Stay in the shade or preferably in an air-conditioned location
Do not go out into the sun!
Wear sunscreen if you have to travel outside.
https://www.rfs.nsw.gov.au/plan-and-prepare/neighbourhood-safer-places if you are in Sydney or Queanbeyan there may be a Neighbourhood Safer Place near you.
If youāre considering going to the beach, there have been high wind warnings this week. I have heard of 5 beach related deaths in the past two days, including a wave that scooped someone out of a rock pool.
Winds are expected to reach 100 km/h today in Sydney.
Keep safe, go somewhere air conditioned. Itās not worth your life to go out for a beach day. Go to a swimming pool or shopping centre, snag those post-holiday clearance bargains. Enjoy yourself! Maybe grab a coffee.. or an iced coffee.. and some ice cream. Hang out with your friends and keep each other safe ā¤ and accounted for.
Please check in on your friends and pass on this information.
Iām taking commissions to make up for my partnerās half of the rent and utilities. I work full time and my partner used to work part time. They were terminated tonight because my job hired too many people so they terminated all their part timers. With no proper notice. My partner was notified when they clocked in tonight and let go permanently within the same shift. To no fault of their own, as their supervisor admitted.
Out of principle, Iām also job hunting again. I donāt appreciate how easily this job can fuck us both over, even if Iām the one still employed. In the meantime though, Iāll keep working and job hunting, taking commissions on the side.
If you would rather give a couple dollars than purchase a whole commission, you can. It's all good not to though. We will find a way.
*** As a preference I only do commissions for adults since my blog is 18+.
Standard Commissions:
Mini:
I also make character sheets and do character design/redesigns. Price depends on how many original drawings you want for your sheet, the age and size of the character, outfit complexity, and if youāre ordering a āpaper dollā style, which is a nude base with multiple outfits. DM for further example and a quote depending on your specifications.
ā¬ļø Additional Details below the cut ā¬ļø
Will Draw
human/anthro/robot (upcharge depending on details)
ocs / self inserts / sonas / fursonas
canon x canon (including rarepairs), oc x canon, self insert x canon.
pinup / suggestive / lingerie / porn
headcanons
gore (context dependent)

I'm excited to get into the chapters of my fic where Tomi is actually existing and not just a concept. I don't really want a "ooh how cute, a baby" fic as much as I want a something that fundamentally changes the story and becomes its own character as it ages. Though of course... I do WANT "ooh a cute baby" chapters, at least from Douma's POV, because he definitely really wanted that baby. And honestly just needs like. One win at this point. Any win.
Enmu? Not so much happiness. His POV is more a horrible sequence of events trying to make sense of his lack of innate affection for Tomi, his weakening grip on Douma's mental health, and trying to figure out how to even care for this anomalous thing.
The family demon slayer thing fell through so Iām just gonna rewear my Giyuu costume from two years ago. I donāt even know if it fits lmao and I canāt find my zori š š š pray for me itās 80 something degrees out and little to no shade where weāll be
i won't be able to participate the rest of the week but i thought i'd plug the event with an update that technically meets the day 1 prompt "firsts", since this is the first time in this comic kyo clearly refers to hakuji with his name, instead of just his pronouns or "demons" :')) even if it's just in kyo's thoughts, it counts aha.
if ur only hearing about akaren week now, dw! u can post after the day, and theyll be reblogging up to two weeks after the week is over. have fun yall! and rip shinjuro ig š
surprise! it's an update :) to celebrate hakuji's actual backstory being animated hehe. i thought they spent a good amount of time on it, so i was a happy camper leaving the theatre. hope yall liked it too!
My sister is dressing up as Giyuu for Halloween. Even if we can dress up as twins, Iād rather do something different this year as we donāt have time to get everything to be Kokushibo and yorichi. I think Iāll go as Tengen. Weāll see lol
Healing from the hysterectomy has been something. But Iām okay. Just exhausted, always. I donāt have the same appetite anymore, I canāt really do much but hopefully Iāll be fine for Halloween. Thatās my favorite holiday ever.
I opened my email for the first time and had hundreds of ao3 emails š¬ so Iām gonna try to lower that number lol I miss everyone, miss reading.

Here are this year's prompts (full descriptions under the read more):
Sunday, August 17: Wealth, gold, relationship with money

Tuesday, August 19: Bondage, bdsm
Wednesday, August 20: Loyalty
Thursday, August 21: Purpose
Friday, August 22: Growth, reform
Saturday, August 23: Favorite features
Day 1 - Sunday, August 17 - Wealth, gold, relationship with money
"Ahh, an untouched treasure! What wonders await us here?"
How well-off are Zev and the warden after the Blight? Do they come across any trove of wealth or do they live modestly? What is their relationship to money? Do they pamper each other? What is your HC for the Warden giving Zev the bars of gold we see in canon?
Day 2 - Monday, August 18 - Family, legacy
"And what of family? Of children? Life does not begin and end with yourself."
What are their thoughts on children? Do Zev and the warden ever have or adopt any of their own? If so, what kind of parents are they? If not, are they ever around other people's children?Ā
Day 3 - Tuesday, August 19 - Bondage, BDSM
"Are you sure you do not wish to tie me up? Not even a little?"
Do you HC Zev as saying such things as flippant jokes or as real interest and desire? Do Zev and the warden get up to any kinds of kink? What are their preferences in that department? How do they develop that kind of intimate relationship?Ā
Day 4 - Wednesday, August 20 - Loyalty
"I am a very loyal person. Up until the point where someone expects me to die for failing."
Was Zev loyal to the warden from the very moment he promised to help them, or does that loyalty develop with time? Is that loyalty ever tested? What about the other way around? Is the warden loyal to Zev from the start, or are they suspicious of him at first? If so, when does that change?
Day 5 - Thursday, August 21 - Purpose
"What we are doing here...stopping the Blight. I cannot think of anything i have ever done which is so worthy."
At what point does Zev start thinking that what they're doing is truly worthwhile? In what ways aside from fighting does he support the warden through such an insurmountable task? How does he feel, when it's all over? Does he recognise the part he played or does he see himself as a sidekick?
Day 6 - Friday, August 22 - Growth, reform
"My name is Zevran Arainai, adventurer and occasional assassin."
When does Zev go from calling himself an Antivan Crow to seeing himself as an adventurer? What does āoccasional assassinā look like in your HCs? What contracts does he still take? Do Zev and the warden adventure together or do they keep a long distance relationship while the warden runs Vigilās Keep and he travels?
Day 7 - Saturday August 23 - Favorite features
"He didn't say how handsome" "Oh, so you've noticed! I credit my high cheekbones and pouty lips."
What are the features and traits, physical or not, that they each love the most about the other? How do they express that admiration? What do they like the most about themselves? Are they both confident, or are there hidden or obvious insecurities?
