"The Veil Guard didn't actually care about Rook" the Veil Guard was so desperate to get Rook back from the prison they tried to make a ritual dagger of their own to rip the Veil apart and look for them

My analysis of Emmrich is that when the team goes out drinking he mostly sits watching them gossip while he drinks fancy wine and the others think he'll just sort of sit and quitely relax until, several glasses in, he opens with "May I say something unkind?" and then proceeds to drop tea so scalding it could boil an ocean

I just started writing about my Lucanis feelings and love of his story. But I’m at work typing it out on my phone and what I thought was going to be a few sentences is now multiple paragraphs.

This man…

He broke me. My first love will always be Emmrich but Lucanis… Maker’s Breath.

When I get home I’ll work on making my scrambled paragraphs a bit more coherent.

for real though, i think veilguard's biggest strength character and storywise is how close that team becomes by the end. the stakes are insurmountably high because on top of facing some truly terrifying odds, you also care deeply about these characters as much as they care about each other. they're all friends. it really gives the same energy as a dnd party at the end of a long campaign. I just adore them all.

genuinely obsessed with what bioware has done with ghilan'nain because it really is about subverting expectations in the most extreme way possible. the lore makes you think that she was this sweet, delicate white-haired huntress who was bright and caring: an elf who was raised to godhood for her loyalty to andruil, now worshipped as the mother of the halla and her name invoked whenever the dalish seek to find their way home.

in reality? she's a monster. she created animals and beasts only to destroy them all (well, almost) upon being offered power and godhood. she made enchanted armour out of living creatures. she experimented with the blight and whatever the hell the horror of hormak grey goop was. her voice is cold and commanding and she says the most vile shit like "i'll feed your blood to what i craft from your corpses" and dude her hair isn't even fucking white. and she looks like this—

and i absolutely love all of it
