loghain's actions simply make no sense in dao. it does not cohere. one can assume only that he came to hate maric and cailan for reasons that don't make sense given the books, OR that he was actually genuinely in the midst of paranoid dementia

[inquisitorismone]

is there a single named mage who would join vivienne's reinstated circle. most of our named mages are from kirkwall, ferelden's circle, are tranquil and/or dead, and then there's rhys and fiona

[inquisitorismone]

tho my whole body REBELS against anders being a hotboy even i cannot deny the daeron targaryen fancast. look at that wet cat of a man

[inquisitorismone]

U know what. I think Dorian as the new divine would be cooler than Dorian as the new archon. Did the viper die if you saved treviso that was never clear to me

[inquisitorismone]

i realize that i can sometimes get fixated on my own "version" of canon but in a cousland world state where alistair does not become king it makes TOO MUCH SENSE that anora and fergus would have to get married

Duncan, the regretful 💧 Five of Cups

Had the pleasure of painting this piece and two others for @dragonageannual 2026 zine! It was so much fun working on this and seeing other people's art and writing!

Process under the cut

solas trapping that aspect of mythal in that tiny pocket of the fade is probably the cruelest thing he ever did

[inquisitorismone]

"she would have died if he didn't" "she can only survive there" then let her die. let her die! don't trap her for 10,000 years!

thinking about the fact that dorian is only 41 in veilguard. god. they did him so dirty

[inquisitorismone]

I rarely truly feel “you’re wrong about” about opinions on fictional characters since I am aware most of my fav characters are the versions of them that live in my head, and typically it’s truly not that deep. But I really just do think that people who don’t like how aggressive bull is with talking about Dorian sexually Don’t Get It. What Dorian needs more than anything is to someone to be open and unashamed of attraction to men generally and attraction to HIM specifically. He splutters and acts offended because he doesn’t know how to process that open attention! All his affairs have been secret unspeakable things! Bull makes sure Dorian knows from DAY ONE that there’s NO need to keep attraction a secret and he’s NOT ASHAMED of him

a good fancast for cullen: paul bettany in a knight’s tale

[inquisitorismone]

pictured: cullen and samson

[inquisitorismone]

solas was really lying to himself more than anybody else. in order to live with what he did he had to convince himself the whole time that he was secretly a hero. god damn

[inquisitorismone]

the funny thing is i'd love to experience the other classes etc but every time i even start a playthrough of inquisition without ismone it feels so much less fun than normal
