Hey you should totally recruit me. Yeah I've spent the last year in a solitary confinement cell hopped up on my own imbalanced brain chemicals and talking to cats about magic theory. I'm definitely not going to go monkey mode on the first templar who looks at me funny. I totally remember how to be a human. *grabs Warden-Commander's hand* I Love You.

bravely . i think aveline and isabela should primarily be fighting over who gets to do violence and against whom. and what actually counts as violence . instead of what being good at woman is like

[ikarons]

like. aveline becomes captain of the guard after having previously been a soldier married to a templar. her Life essentially is defined by sanctioned, culturally noble and respected violence against those perceived as Other, Deserving by the state she serves. child bride to pirate pipeline isabela (who is on the run because she took on her powerful boss to free slaves he would have profited from the sale of) has been the Other against whom it is Acceptable To Commit Violence (but who is not legally or morally permitted to retaliate) her whole life, and i think this has made her incredibly protective of her right to engage in violence of her own. to me this has always kind of been the heart of their conflict— ideas about who is respectable, who is Allowed, who gets to define what that even means. especially with the context that As captain of the guard, aveline quite actively reinforces her institution’s right to enact violence & the Taboo against the disenfranchised returning it; her guardsman sexually assaults an elven girl, and she not only protects him, but literally (accidentally.) starts a war over her right to prosecute the girl’s brothers for killing him in retaliation when She failed to deliver appropriate justice. ISABELA WAS SOLD AS A CHILD BRIDE. it’s such a gimme. that’s like the main thing that differentiates them and the main difference in their interests. literally how is this not the main thing they’re clashing about?

I've officially finished pulling Brosca's dialogues and started on Aeducan's

I'll be bouncing back and forth with formatting posts while I pull out dialogues from the other origins before moving on to the main quests.

Stay tuned for polls to decide which origin is next :)

[starage]

i doooo love the city elf origin. i love how full circle it is. you start the story hiding your weapons away, and you end the story raising a powerful political force against the regent and then fighting your final battle in the streets you grew up in. you start the story fighting side by side with one cousin to save your other cousin and than end the story fighting with your other cousin to save your first cousin, and the rest of your family. the bridge getting destroyed as you leave during the siege on denerim. you can never really go back but you can save them.
