Paperwick’s Sleepy Dragon Age Artstyle Guide
Just a quick style guide I whipped together in the last few hours. It’s in response to an anon from several days ago, I hope this helps! (And a sneak peak into the next card I’m working on for my personal deck.)

New mesh. Original meshes were converted from Aion; convertion, meshes edit, frankenmeshing and textures are by myself. 7090 and 1072 poly, normal and specular maps, all LODs, basegame compatible. And, since you voted for the higher collar, there would be a clipping issue with almost every long hairstyle.
As usual, preview pics are pure screenshots 100% from the game - no color edit, no ReShade, just cleared backgroud. Previews were taken without HQ mod. There are two packages - a standart one and a HQ compatible one. If you don’t have HQ mod installed - don’t download the HQ package. You won’t get the better quality ot the higher resolution textures, on the contrary, the texture would look blurred and some areas may become weirdly shiny. So download the HQ version ONLY if you use HQ mod in your game.
Hope you’ll find this useful - tag me if you do, I’d love to see your pictures. Happy simming, have fun and don’t forget to read my TOU.

Credits go to NCSoft in general, to @dearkims, @mocnpanchi and @sakuraijun-sims for the poses and to all the creators of cc used on the preview pics.
New NPC: Templar Ford Weston
This guy has been bouncing around my brain after I was sketching some old DND characters.
Name: Sherringford "Ford" Weston (He/Him)
Nicknames: Ford, Bloodhound, Black Sheep
Age: 35 years? (may change)
Height: 6'1" or 185.42 cm
Occupation: Former Knight-Templar, now Seeker of Truth
Birthplace: Ferelden
Orientation: "I believe that is no one's business but my own."
Personality: Focused, cold. Can be ruthless if the mission requires it. He is tired... tired of everyone's shit. He keeps personal opinions to himself and prefers to be alone.
Smokes elfroot constantly. No one is quite sure if the cigarettes are laced with some lyrium, but no one wants to ask.
Backstory: (Subject to change)
Born as the second child to a once-wealthy family in Ferelden, Sherringford Weston was named after an old country estate in the hopes that he would be the one to regain the family fortune. (DO NOT call him Sherry or Sherringford unless you want a sword in your gut).
Although he disappointed them in that regard, his parents were proud when young Ford was recruited into the Templars to train when he showed great aptitude with a sword.
Ford thrived in the environment and met his best friend John Dawson, a young Templar interested in healing without magic. They were inseparable and worked together to find escaped apostates, maleficar, and abominations. Ford became known as the "Bloodhound" for his ability to hunt his prey efficiently. ("I am not a Mabari -- I do not charge into battle and rip into enemies with my teeth.")
Dawson fell in love with a gentle mage named Marie Morrison, and eventually married her despite Ford's warning that this could only lead in tragedy. The two (and Ford) kept the relationship a secret, with Dawson visiting Marie when he was tasked with guarding the Circle.
However, with the mage uprising in Kirkwall, the Templars were instructed to tighten their hold on the mages and invoke the rite of annulment should the Circle show any signs of rebellion. When signs of a planned uprising were found in a fellow mage's room, Dawson was forced to participate in the Rite of Annulment.
Ford was away on another mission and when he returned, he found his friend despondent at his wife's death. Eventually, the two were reassigned to different parts of Thedas. Ford lost track of his former friend until the Inquisition found Dawson with the Red Lyrium Knights, ready to overthrow the Chantry.
After the events of the Inquisition, Ford opted to attend Cullen's retreat to shed his lyrium addiction and undergo the Seeker ritual to continue continue hunting down abominations and malificar.
Eventually, he is assigned to tracked down rumors of possible demon and mage experiments in an ancient lab near Treviso, and he is caught in the city when the Butcher invades....
Ai Haibara - She's a more morally grey character (at least the earliest version of her) who was willing to experiment on people to accomplish her goal. Her Japanese voice actress (who is also Faye Valentine) has a cool tone to her voice that I try to keep in mind.
James Bond - The original Bond was very aggressive and went after his targets with little compunction, very much like Daniel Craig's depiction (Sean Connery and Pierce Brosnan still hold a special place in my heart). (I'm not using the philandering womanizer part of the character).
L - Logical, with almost a fervent focus on the problem to solve. Also morally grey.
Cassandra and Cullen - Gleaming whatever I learn about the Templars and Seekers from them.
Sherlock Holmes - The biggest influence, honestly. Ford was originally a DND Easter egg NPC that I begged to join the team. 😂
I pulled from many versions - Basil Rathbone, Jeremy Brett, Benedict Cumberbatch, Robert Downey Jr., Basil of Baker Street (Great Mouse Detective). etc.
Alec Hardy - The tired investigator who is exhausted of everyone's crap. Grumpy and brusque.
Mr. Darcy - Various Pinterest fan art of Colin Firth's and Matthew MacFayden's Mr. Darcy influenced Ford's design. I put Colin Firth because I watched the BBC version first.

WIP Whenever
Working on the prompts for Rook Week 2026.... It's been fun experimenting with more dynamic poses and trying to draw faster.

OC Template - Jerran
Tagging whoever wants to do this!
Clothing Item they would wear:
Honestly, Jerran would wear the whole outfit, but I was mostly looking at the blue tunic.
-----
Texture in their signature color:
Blue leather
-----
Animal that suits their personality:
This one was hard, but I went with a wolf. Depending on how you view them, they can be loyal, brave, and family-oriented or they can be dangerous and untamable.
-----
Environment that captures their story:
I chose a medieval prison, since Jerran's journey with the Grey Wardens begins with him being captured by the authorities. He also gets trapped in various less physical prisons such as regret and consequences of his own decisions.
-----
Object in their bag:
A ring representing his ultimate goal to survive and return to his loved ones.
-----
Interest of theirs:
Fighting. What else is there? Even better-- with armor and swords.
-----
Abstraction that captures their vibe:
I envision the Blight as a slow poison that rots his organs and turns them black.
-----
Food or beverage that they enjoy:
Grilled teriyaki chicken or beef with rice. His mamae used to grill chicken and other meats over a fire while they traveled. Jerran always keeps the savory garlic-ginger sauce in his supplies.
not my tweet but I thought it would be a good psa for artists here too
Oh this is a common scam I find at work. Any file that:
isn't jpg, jpeg, pdf, or png
Is a file extension you don't recognise (this one is a visual basic file, used for scripting, but others like exe or bat are used)
has a very low or unexpected file size (this one's is less than 1KB, or 0.001MB, a good reference should be at least 500KB)
Is likely a scam. Stay safe kids.

Dividers from @zennihilation (I think?)
Jerran Thorne
Alias(es): Jerran Thornhill, Rynn Nighthold (Seriously? Where did they dig up that old name? I haven't gone by that name since I was fifteen? -- JT)

Reward: 150,000 gold (Maker's Breath, I could buy a lot of food with that amount. - JT)
Authorized By: Minrathous Government. Contact [The name and information are scribbled out]
Honestly, his Midnight Stars name should be Rynn Nighthold... I may need to go back and retcon a lot of details. The alias comes from 2 DnD campaigns where I renamed him.

before I forget about it:
my Veilguard tip of the day is to go to Documents\BioWare\Dragon Age The Veilguard and check your crash_dumps and CrashDumps folders because I discovered I had accumulated over 8gb of crash information in there since last January. disk space that, clearly, is best used for literally anything else
For the PC gamers
Homecoming
This was insane considering I'm getting eye surgery next month, but my hyper-fixation wouldn't let this go.
A prequel/adjacent comic to @lunammoon and @so--whoonos ' fic, A Rage Brighter than the Sun , set before the Blood of Arlathan questline. This is a mix of my own head canon and various AU's.
It definitely isn't perfect, but I had a lot of fun experimenting with new angles and poses that I never would have used otherwise.
This comic is read left to right. Please click on the pictures if you need a clearer image.
Kesper's character design is based on Dragon Age Inquisition's Bandit King concept by Matt Rhodes.
Happy 20th anniversary to They're Taking the Hobbits to Isengard specifically
A Blood of Arlathan Fic Starring: @lunammoon Ezra Mustermann and ??? @so--whoonos Nyxsiris With Cameos From: @teamtakagi Jerran @aislingavry Naina @elfmaid Kalais @wickedadaar Del and Beck Banner by @so--whoonos
Ezra had a job with the Mourn Watch. And, at least officially, that had been the reason they had joined the Veilguard.
There would be blood mages and blood magic and spirits and there was a base within the fade. So of course a Tie Breaker would be needed. If nothing else, to keep the spirits from being bound against them.
In truth, that had simply been what they presented to the Watch as a reason.
It wasn’t a lie, but the truth was that Nyx was going and Ezra didn’t want to be left behind.
Their official role had only come up a handful of times. Now was one of them.
Dalish were missing- taken by Venatori. People were in danger. Evanuris would be there and NYX was going. And if Nyx was going into danger, Ezra couldn’t stay in the lighthouse.
Nyx and Ezra had hiked in with the Dalish, following along with the path of the inner circle as they took their disguises into the thick of the Venatori present.
The plan is simple enough because of the many moving parts; find the captured elves, release them, get out. Ezra’s skills were needed. Ward work and breaking blood binding was what they were best at, and Nyx knew they could keep Ezra safe, and all the captives they freed.
