a crow never abandons a contract

just got alistair’s little “heh! i think we work well together! :)” right after he shattered an enemy that amell had frozen. soooo cute

misdirection hex is exactly as satisfying and funny as i imagined

i always forget that they don’t give you a mage for the tower of ishal if you are one. haters

i also want to play at least a little more cathy because she’s leaning into hexes which i haven’t played with before. i just got misdirection hex and i’m excited to use it because my logic is that if i fucking hate when a spell is used on me then it must feel good as hell to cast

we’ve gotta do more with grimoires.

video games where characters say magic words when you make them cast a spell are superior

made an amell recently and i wanted to forcibly make her closer to the fereldan commoner origin i would have liked, so when she was very young in order to escape the chantry’s eye she either ran away from kirkwall or was brought away from kirkwall by somebody else, i’m still deciding on exactly the logistics. and her childhood memories are of scraping by on the run, with very few (if any) memories of wealth and the family estate and so on. but i was thinking, if she (and whoever she was potentially with) did go to ferelden, then they would presumably have done so because they were clinging to a hope they could reconnect with the hawkes, who know what they’re doing with this whole apostate business. so then i was like, maybe when she finally gets caught by the templars and taken to the circle she has a sibling with her who escaped, who left her behind, and they make it to the hawkes and join the hawke family, and i have a worldstate where the HOF and the champion are actually siblings with massive drama. kind of crazyyy

do we really believe that the chantry official circle mage uniform for human women actually had that insane like bra cup outline from dao

earlier i was playing bg3 and astarion got a critical hit when he had disadvantage, which iirc is a 1 in 400 chance, and then immediately totally unprompted just walked into a bunch of entangling vines that were also covered in acid
