THAT'S HOW WE DID IT BACK IN FERELDEN! @sebastiansvaelss - Tumblr Blog

Posts

im probably gonna change this account up a whole lot. i’ve been really anxious lately and everythings getting worse. i dont like having to hide myself and i’ve been struggling with dealing with obsessive-compulsive thoughts so,

i might either radically change the content on here or remake and it won’t just be only dragon age either way. or i might deactivate im not sure yet.

things tumblr needs to stop thinking are good, cool or constructive

- looking for things to be offended by - glorifying certain demographics - vilifying other demographics - throwing around words such as ableist, sexist, transphobic, etc like confetti to the point where they are becoming meaningless (much to the harm of victims of actual hatred) - self victimization - censorship - policing people’s language - throwing tantrums over fictional characters not representing demographics you like - pretty much reducing people to small aspects of their identity - doxxing and bullying people who disagree with you - conflating gender with personality traits or clothing style - pretending that obesity is not a bad thing - prioritizing hurt feelings over everything else - pretending that you strive for equality when really you strive for special treatment

#The only one I don't agree with is the obesity one #You don't know people's health history #People vary greatly #I think it was worded badly

You know what else bothers me about Thedas in terms of world building? Fish.

Now, follow me here, I don’t mean I expect Bioware to have spent five minuets talking about what kind of fish are swimming around, but if you think about it… look at how the oceans are. Look at the rivers and ponds. Look at the predators and other animal species present on the waterlines and what we see around water in general.

Like, Bioware is telling me that Cod, Whiting, Bass, and other eating fish are the only thing swimming around that people can haul in? That there aren’t some giant ass catfish in the rivers that the Dalish have to avoid now and then because they’re the size or aravels, and the ones that aren’t are the varieties that are attracted to Halla and will leech on them and burrow into their skin. Fish that prey on wyvern eggs and spawn inside the eggs so the Wyvern would protect the clutch. Fish that live on or near underwater lyrium veins, glowing and inhabiting sunken and flooded areas of the Deep Roads. Huge river fish in the northern countries that gulp air and are thickly armored, having existed since Arlathan, single fish living hundreds of years. Huge Fereldan fish that grow fast, spawn, and die in fast moving rivers in such numbers that they nearly burst over the banks. Rivaini sailors knowing better than to go drinking in certain harbors because there’s fish that would take advantage of you falling into the harbor, tearing a hole or two in your gut and burrowing inside for it and 50 others to eat you hollow. Sea fish that make fishing for food on a voyage a proper task, because the storms mean they can spawn without people fishing them till they venture close to shore.

I’m just saying there’s probably enough weird fish swimming aorund that they could have had Isabella making comments about low-level enemies were nothing in comparison to dealing with fish ok. Or in Inquisition the swimming in deep water could have been discouraged by, not a black screen, but a fish the size of a mini-van coming for your ass.

“Fuck your Inquisition!”

Ok so y’all probably know about my thing about Fish In Thedas by now. And some people would argue about my assertion that catfish would give your party in Inquisition pause.

I want you to look at this post, look at this fish.

Look this fat opportunist predatory feeder, that would totally eat dead people, other fish, darkspawn, and things killed by the blight– Look it in the eyes.

Look it in the eyes and tell me Dorian would walk through water where that lives. That Sera would not stand on Iron Bull’s head and exist up there the whole time you were in that region. Varric, same. Cassandra would be fighting these things. The safety of Bull would be compromised by the fact that these things are larger than Cassandra, are more his size, and would have to focus on one after it started choking on his leg.

Fish in the world are large, they go where they are not supposed to be and they get larger. Apply to Thedas. Try to sleep well.

awellboiledicicle

So morning reblog of this, i’d like to point out that it’s entirely possible that Crestwood would have been full of these sort of fish, gorging themselves on the bodies of Blight refugees, darkspawn, and anyone caught in the flooding when the mayor pulled his shit. And a good deal of cat fish are totally capable of fin walking when water is gone. So you’d get these monsters writhing around in the mud while you explored, breathing by gulping air– yeah several of them also have rudimentary lungs too, and trying to get into water. Some might be flopping there with a another fish in it’s mouth that it’s choking on. Or a demon. Fish are so fucking cool and disconcerting and i love them

captainlordauditor

now imagine one POSSESSED by a demon.

go on. imagine.

Ok but what if it’s like spiders? What if the fish get bigger where the veil is thin? E X T R A G I A N T C A T F I S H

awellboiledicicle

All Circles in Thedas with deep water or suitable enviroments having catfish or other scavengers living around them because they can feed off of whatever gets tossed into the water after a pyer– if the Templars bother burning mages that die. Giant cat fish grown fat from that, scrap and detritus from waste, and the veil being thin. yes good.

captainlordauditor

didn’t anders escape from the circle once by swimming?

what if he’s now terrified of catfish?

pikestaff-deactivated20200113

Anders? Scared of something with whiskers and the word “cat” in it??

he’d try to cuddle it.

ithinkitsdashing

Excuse you Anders RODE that fucker to the shore okay? Instant friendship, catfish gave him a lift over the lake as he waved and blew a kiss at the templars left behind.

Omg this catfish post has been sitting in my queue but this is so much better…

Close-ups for your… special needs. Bigger version of the whole thing is on my deviantart. You can crop it, dissect it, turn it into icons and WHATEVER - you have my blessings. Credit is always welcome.

Girl band is coming soon and lots of Cullen too ‘cos I’m having a whole week free.

Replies to some of the messages I received:

Varric is not present ‘cos he’s a manager

Cole is a precious bby, how can you hate him idonteven

Cullen is a vocalist duh, I was too lazy to draw a mic. Also he knows. everything. hence the smirk

Krem is where he belongs. If you have a problem with Krem I’ll make you play hockey with me.never play hockey with me

Solas is having a howling good time

Dorian is amused by the amount of underwear in my askbox

P.S. Iron Bull absolutely destroyed the drums. And the stage.

p.p.s. I love you guys. Have a good new year.

Skyhold’s latest rock sensation…?

i think everyone agrees that anders is rlly tall and skinny, but there seems to be some disagreement over whether he got the booty or a flapjack ass. what do you think?

calligraphypenn

I need to reblog this bc half the responses are “booty” and the world (my followers) need to know Anders has No Ass

un-shit-yourself

Is this what finally divides the House of Anders? :p

calligraphypenn

This will mean full out fandom war, should I say this, but I can be silent no longer. Time to take a stand! *deep breath* THERE IS NO MAGE ASS

ndrs

a handy visual I just prepared: fig.01: profile view, note the astounding lack of curvature in the butt area fig.02: reference of the coat’s thickness (+ weird sack garment) fig.03: rear view, note the lack of shadow and curvature

considering he’s wearing pants + the sack thing + the coat I’d say there’s a clear lack of ass mass

templar-headache

ON THE CONTRARY I have DEFINITIVE PROOF that Anders HAS AN ASS

SCIENCE

ndrs

I will admit there is apostate ass in Awakening but he also has arms in Awakening that have turned into spaghetti noodles by DA2. He’s been letting himself go and lost a lot of muscle mass.

therealmnemo

you can’t swing a staff like that and not have arm muscles, he got it still :P

drawsshits-inactive

Schrödinger’s Ass Unless we open the box (the robe), Ander’s ass is thought to be both bootylicious and flatest of the flapjacks

templar-headache

Wasn’t there someone in the fandom who was looking through the models semi-recently? Surely the answer must be out there… Show us the wireframe.. reveal the truth of the ass beneath the robe

misterwiggums-deactivated-deact

yeah that was daggerpenn

it was void

anders has void for ass

templar-headache

Void ass…..

Tfw you enchant your own ass to be pure nothingness

Templars can’t catch your ass if it isn’t there

calligraphypenn

PROOF

HE HAS NEGATIVE ASS
