DRAGON AGE OCs SERVER

Come join us in celebrating your original characters in the Dragon Age universe and all the characters that matter to them. We want to hear their stories and see art of them and talk about headcanons and have fun 💖

We also run an OC-centric “secret santa” style gift exchange for the month of December! It's such an extra treat to get art and stories about your original characters, so we thought it would be fun to do a low-pressure exchange focused on getting to know each other’s characters! Join the discord to participate 🎉 New year, new blorbos!

Self reblogging to both shamelessly self promotion and vague post to encourage my fellow Bethabela lovers to check back in in a couple weeks for Reasons. 😌

Justice: I do not know what makes demons as they are. Such evil angers me, but I do not understand it. Anders: Well, I hope you never come to understand.

a conversation before the end of act 3.

version with rambles!

the justice/anders relationship is one of my favourite parts of all the dragon age games, any permutation of it is so intensely tragic. Their old selves died and created a new one and they don't even know that they should be mourning what they lost? tragic. They exist in an uneasy fusion until all that is Anders is gone and Justice is back to possessing little more than a corpse? tragic.

BUT. my favourite dynamic is that Anders is not as controlled by Justice as he says. Because imagine. you're a mage and all you want is agency, the freedom to live your life your way. you say mages should be free, and at best you get a half-hearted 'eh sure'. but then, when a literal embodiment of justice starts saying it, people listen. surely a spirit whose entire point is Justice knows whats objectively right? and the result is intoxicating -- you can start voicing things you've been saying for years and for the first time people take you seriously.

but then maybe you start to rely on it a bit too much. you make an overly cruel remark and get odd looks. you can't have that, you've learned that the only way to survive is to be charming, to make people like you. you blame it on Justice -- any outburst, any unpopular opinion, any selfish action, its the spirit's fault. maybe you believe it too -- after all, you're the suffering idiot who made the mistake of trusting a demon. and now you're getting sympathy as well as recognition.

and then all of a sudden it turns bitter. you vent to your friends, and they beg to not lose yourself to the demon. that's weird, that was you speaking. and now any opinion you have is Morally Right. you aren't allowed to be wrong. You make a mistake, someone gets hurt, and people still celebrate you as the arbiter of right and wrong. you just want to run away from it all, but that means justice has abandoned all mages. you have to stay. you know how it must end.

and you realise that the freedom you so desperately wanted is gone. that you are in a prison of your own making. not free to make your own choices, not free to speak your own mind. you are but a Symbol, that some revere and some revile. because a possessed voice is a dispossessed voice.

and alongside all this, you've trapped, betrayed, and besmirched a friend who trusted their soul to you.

tragic :)

Ser Cullen's complete set of "comments" from DA:O - unclear if any are ever used in game (from ss_cullen.dlg audio file)

[siriusdraws]

Cullen [combat attack]: This I do for Andraste!

Cullen [combat attack]: The templars will prevail!

Cullen [combat attack]: Now we fight!

Cullen [combat battle cry]: Don’t let up!

Cullen [combat battle cry]: The Maker fights with me!

Cullen [combat battle cry]: Your time has come!

Cullen [combat taunt]: You are no match for any of us!

Cullen [threaten]: I have a sword, and I’m not afraid to use it!

Cullen [cry for help]: Help me, please!

Cullen [near death]: No, please… it’s not my time…

Cullen [yes]: Of course.

Cullen [no]: No.

Cullen [stop]: Don’t move.

Cullen [hello]: Hello.

Cullen [goodbye]: See you around.

Cullen [thank you]: Thanks for that.

Cullen [cuss]: Garbage!

Cullen [cheer]: Maker be praised!

Cullen [something to say]: Listen.

Cullen [good idea]: I could get behind that.

Cullen [bad idea]: Did someone pay you to come up with that? Because you should give them their money back.

Cullen [failed stealing attempt]: Keep your hands away, you!

Cullen [bored]: So… do you think Andraste was a virgin? She was the Maker’s bride… what do you think that means?
