Upon The Precipice of Change

The worlds of Thedas and Albion have come crashing together to create a unique roleplaying experience! This activity is meant for fun and entertainment as well as to inspire participants and to make new friends. Our love for both of these games drives us, and we hope that others will enjoy playing in this new setting for the same reason.

Upon the Precipice of Change Discord Server. So, back in like...2015 there was this idea that Fable and Dragon Age would mesh really, really well together. So we created a group here on Tumblr to see how well it would take off. Well I never forgot about it and I still wanted this to get the attention it deserves, and now that there are new games for both coming out, I want to give it a chance. So! Do you like Dragon Age roleplay? Do you like Fable Roleplay? Do you like both? Do you only like one or the other? This is a multiship, multiverse, multimuse discord RP server where you can RP just Fable if you want, or just Dragon Age, or both! Stick to the crossover, or stick to the canonical games, it doesn't matter! Complete with thread tracker, music, Tupper bot, the ability for more than 1 person to claim and play as a character, OC friendly, OOC friendly, 18+ server with age verification, NSFW and SFW supportive.

Check In

Do we still love Fable and Dragon Age? Was this a crossover we still wished would have gotten off the ground?

Would anyone be interested to know I made a discord server around this AU?

I continue to be of the mind that Thedas [Dragon Age] and Albion [Fable] are/could be argued to be in the same world and it would make sense.

Like logistically, Albion screams to me as some part of the land humanity came from and/or another land humanity landed upon and started fucking with and lost contact with Thedas– or perhaps they used Old Kingdom magic to stay in contact, their local language calling mana Will instead as the intelligent life communicated with the humans and they had to adapt. If that was the case, this method of communication could have linked whole continents and simply not taken off in Thedas, or perhaps Thedas was a recent settlement when The Spire was completed. I bring it up because, usually, while people could have wandered off to just settle places on a whim, one would assume the first humans that began to encroach upon the Elves were prepared to do so rather immediately and were prepared to do so from the get go– implying a more settled and established nation sent out settlers.  So, assuming communications took time to set up and the Spire blew it all to hell and buried everything before they could send more ships, [the settlers would be waiting for more people to come but with the planet’s weather it’s not like they’d want to risk a trip back and they wouldn’t want to risk losing ground. After a while it was probably a matter of just taking what they could and admitting Home was there now] it means any survivors in Albion and the now scattered patches of humanity in their sections of the world would be likely unaware of the rest– and if aware unable to really get to them. Everyone else is likewise separated.

“Mok, why are you even bringing this up? Is it because they both have magic?”

Well, that and the presence of an Archon in the lore of their fallen former empire, magical artifacts endued with mysterious magical materials no one has a name for, when you are highly gifted with magic in Albion you glow with blue cracks on your skin like lyrium– and the ability to use magic is hereditary. Granted this in and of itself is not similar, but the fact there could be a link through lyrium veins [there are gem deposits throughout the game that have glowing gems of a blueish color and i need to look again but it interests me] and strange otherwise nonsensical geological phenomenon– such as earthquakes and the like– and weather patterns.

And then there’s the architecture of the ruins and the runes on all the Old Kingdom things you can find. They strike me as distinctly similar to things you see in Ostagar and in the World of Thedas book about Tevinter, as well as the Circle of Fereldan and the Gallows. Their writing reminds me of the writing that shows up in Dragon Age as well. 

The taint and the Darkness of the Crawler– one taints the physical and the other both the mind and body, though it takes time. Physical manifestations. Hobbes are just Genlocks that took advantage of children instead of dwarves. Banshees are Despair demons, the Children are shades and other demons. Balvarines are themselves or equivalent to werewolves. 

I’m just saying there are similarities.

You know what? I'm not giving up on this AU. Over the course of the next few weeks, I will be attempting to revive this. Pump out new concepts. I will also be doing Let's Plays of Fable and drawing cross over concepts. I have been proud of this since I helped breathe life into it. I won't let this die!! *cue dramatic music*

There is No Party Like a Reaver Party {{ Dragon Age: Inquisition AU: Open to all }}

He pushed open the door, clothes askew from his romping in the halls of Lady Eskaville, hair an absolute mess. He giggled, high off of a grand night (and various other things).

When he had met Lady Eskaville a year ago, she was restricted, quiet and noble. And now…well…Reaver had unravelled her completely from the game.

He took a deep breath, finishing his bottle of ritzy Orlesian wine and left it on the steps of the Orlesian manor. He wiped the lipstick from his neck, fingers rubbing across the bite marks. He had a special touch. And well…she apparently enjoyed it if she was inviting him to little…gatherings. 

Booze and recreational drugs. All things she was opposed to a year back, she now engaged in. Why, just that night, he’d convinced her -and 5 servants- to join him in a romp. Bedroom floor covered in pillows and blankets, surrounded by candles and food. Sex, drugs, leather. A bit calm for his taste, but she was new to it all -and oh how thirsty she’d been. 

But, the night was over. The sun was coming up and all fun was over until next month -unless he won a more recent date from her. 

He swagged through the streets of Orlais, taking in the scent of flowers and fountain waters. By noon, she’d be cleaned up, covering the scent of wine and recreational goodies to keep her face with the other nobles. After all, the game was the game, and if you were even a bit weak in any of your defenses, that was it. You were crumbled. 

That wasn’t a concern of Reaver’s though. The Game was nothing more than a pleasant conversation for him. And a gateway to a plethora of opportunity. 

He stopped by a fountain, smiling as he wiped the remaining lipstick from his face and neck, fixing his ruffled hair and rumpled clothes and fixed his cravat.

Dropping A Partner/Leaving A Group

The full title of this post should be: Dropping A Partner/Leaving A Group (It’s Okay And You Shouldn’t Have To Feel Guilty About It).

I receive questions concerning this a lot. A lot. A lot.

It seems as though a lot of people coming in to the blog for the first time want me to make individualized responses for their situation. While this is fine, I hope that in this post it can help you to be able to do it yourself if your issue with your partner isn’t too complicated.

There are many reasons why someone may want to drop their partner:

Not being comfortable with their writing style

Not being comfortable with the mun and how they treat you

Partner being clingy, rude, lacking in activity…a million things could go here.

You don’t like where the plot is going and your partner doesn’t want to change it.

You’ve lost interest.

ANY NUMBER OF THINGS

Understand that, for whatever reason, it’s okay to drop a partner. It’s also good to know that you do not have to explain yourself. Another good things to DO is to be sure to tell your partner. Disappearing, leaving someone hanging without word is truly unkind and can leave your partner feeling even more hurt than if you had said something. 

Saying something allows your partner to move on more quickly.

If you have someone who is interested in roleplaying with you, and you are not interested in roleplaying with them, the most simple thing to say is:

I do apologize, but I cannot say that I am interested. I hope that you can understand and be able to move on and find a partner best suited for you. I do appreciate your time and interest in my character nonetheless.

It’s simple. It’s kind. It let’s them move on. Understand that it is 100% okay to not want to roleplay with someone. You are not obligated to roleplay with someone you do not want to roleplay with. If someone becomes angry and/or harasses you because you don’t roleplay with them: block them. There is no need for unnecessary negativity.

Now, for dropping a partner for whatever reason you may have, you can use this generic ‘speech’ I’ve made and alter it to your needs.

I don’t want to hurt your feelings as it isn’t my intention, but I feel we should part ways as partners. [You can insert reason here if you’d like to]. I don’t feel that you’re the partner for me and think that the two of us should move on and find partners more suited for us both. I also don’t want to waste your time as well as my own by continuing the roleplay when I do not want to. I hope you can understand and again, I don’t want to offend you or hurt your feelings in anyway. 

It’s simple and it gets the point across that you do not want to be partners with them and that you’d like to move on.

Try your best to always be kind. It’s so important (at least, I feel that it is). 

And again, if someone tries to be mean to you because you no longer want to continue the roleplay, block them.

Moving along!

There are many reasons as to why someone may want to leave a group:

You’ve lost interest

You don’t like the way the group communicates (i.e. cliques)

You don’t like the way the admins run the group

You don’t like the level of activity

You don’t like how the admins treat some people over others

You’ve found that the group just isn’t for you

ANY NUMBER OF THINGS

Know that it’s okay to leave a group, even if you play a very important character in the story, the plot is at a peak point, whatever. It’s okay to leave.

However, it’s important to let the admins know, instead of disappearing, slowly drifting out, etc. because it allows them to immediately post for a replacement rather than think that you’re going to return at some point.

Let the admins know if you’re leaving. It’s kind of rude not to.

If you’re interested in leaving a group, here is how I would approach an admin:

I know this may be sudden, but I wanted to let you know that I am going to leave the group. [If there is a reason you’d like to apply here, go ahead]. Is there a certain way I should have my character exit the plot or would you like to take care of that after I leave?

For me personally, I would also add:

I can remain active for x number of days to give you time to figure a way around the plot with my character’s absence, if you’d like.

That’s just me being the super stupid nice person I am, though.

Don’t let the admins attempt to guilt trip you into staying. If you want to go, then go. There is no reason for you to have to stay if you’re not interested in staying. It’s okay to leave.

I really hope this helps people who don’t know what to say to someone they want to drop as a partner or what to say when they want to leave a group and encourages people to at least let their partners know rather than disappearing.

Dragon Age/Fable Crossover

Name: Morgaine Blackwood Species: Human Class: Rogue {Duelist} Face Claim: Yvonne Strahovski {Will also use miscellaneous icons from in game} Setting: Thedas Fandoms: Fable, Dragon Age

For more information regarding this AU, please see this blog for more details.

When the Breach consumed Albion, Morgaine was one of the many that was swept up into it before being deposited into the country of Fereldan. Like many others, the memories of two worlds and two lives swimming around in her head was too  much for her, and her mind did what it could and locked away her memories of Albion, her childhood, her life before the Breach and the Spire, everything. Now, all she remembers is her life in Thedas, believing to have grown up in Fereldan with her family, before taking up the trade of a drifting mercenary. While she can not remember Albion, she is confused by the strange dreams that will drift into her mind at night, dreams of a different land with strange clothes and even stranger weapons. Though she is none the wiser to what actually happened prior to the event that changed her life, she can not shake the feeling that something just isn’t quite right…

Reaver: Dragon Age Verse

Name: Reaver Age: 300+ Fandom: Fable, Dragon Age Class: Rogue Setting: Thedas Times Active: Dragon Age Origins - Dragon Age Inquisition. Home: The Reaver (his ship),  Misc Info: By the time Inquisition rolls around he owns a Mansion in High Town, Kirkwall called The Limp Lady Manor, and a Mansion in Orlais called Pottinger Palace. 

We all know the Tale of the infamous King of Pirates Reaver. Born once upon a time in Oakvale during a time where heroes were hunted and destroyed. Their godliness no long mattered to the people of Albion. Their protection against the dark no longer needed.

How a boy, small and weak though beautiful made a deal with dark God’s for immortality at the sacrifice of his home and everyone he loved.

This is the missing chapter.

We all know what happened after the the night the Pirate valiantly though…reluctantly, helped the Hero, Sparrow, defeat Lucien. How he went on to further his fame, and wealth, eventually squatting in the position of power as Logan’s Adviser. And even farther beyond that, extending his reach to other countries with his Industries.

But as the Spire was used, not even 100 years after the use with Lord Lucien, a hole was ripped in the sky. All of time and existence ripped with it, rewriting much of Albion’s existence and intermingling it with that of a strange world.

Thedas.

When the Pirate awoke, dressed in his usual garb, he saw he was in a strange place, surrounded by sand as far as the eye could see, and not any desert he knew -not that he could really tell them apart after avoiding them so desperately (the heat really wasn’t good for his hair).

After facing more obstacles that perplexed him in the next few hours than he had in the last 30 years, he found his way from the deserted wasteland. He knew nothing of this world and it’s people and it’s…seemingly lack of technology -no guns!

At first he’d thought that the Spire shot him back to a completely different time, but when even a map made no sense to him he concluded that he was definitely not in Albion anymore. And there was only one thing he could do now.

Get to know this world starting with the seas first.

And confirm that the Shadow Court existed before his deal went sour.
