Gale of Minrathous

Dragon Age AU where Gale is a Tevinter magister who accidentally infected himself with red lyrium. He's found a way to halt the lyrification. Mostly.

More tidbits:

Devout Andrastian with a bit of Leliana's "the Maker speaks to me" thing going, except it's "Andraste—so obviously a mage btw, I have 5000 words prepared and ready to go on this topic—sings to me, magic prodigy"

"therefore I am sure to be the one to unlock the secrets of this powerful, strange new lyrium that is singing to m—oh. golly. that went poorly"

joins the inquisition after he emerges from isolation and his former peers have all become Venatori. If his own folly has emptied the sand from his hourglass, why not spend the little time that remains to him serving Andraste's chosen?

0 moral qualms about blood magic except that all participants must be willing. All magic is neutral—its use determines whether it is good or bad

Tara is his possessed cat, who has lived far longer than a cat should, but Gale isn't complaining. who says abominations can't like chin scritches

talks about Minrathous, a lot

would break open the heavens to see the throne of the Maker, just for the experience

Final AU thoughts under the cut!

what the magisterium doesn't want you to see:

the staff that I know, deep in my heart, Gale uses and insists is artistic:

malmal.io was actually pretty fun to draw on :D

Again, it should be a crime to have no layers, but coloring with the opacity lowered was pretty therapeutic??!?

i think another one of the little friendship bonding moments for limochi is that young lime would bring a lot of multiplayer games over to mochis house because he had no one else to play them with and this habit continues for the rest of their friendship

Can we see your durge? :oc if not no worries I'm just curious!

Of course! Have a lil WIP of her in all her evil glory 🥰 (Hope I can finish this anytime in the next century lol)

Her name is Sandra, she's a war cleric of Gruumsh/oathbreaker paladin and she's Totally Bad Not Good Unredeemable. I haven't posted much about her bc I'm still in ACT1 with her (Im replaying Khael and campagn that takes priority).

fun fact before I even got through half of ACT1 of all the compainons only Astarion and Shadowheart were alive/present. I dont know how long theyre going to last though lmaooo

She's another iteration of my DnD character Alasandra, who Ive played for a couple years in a homebrew campagn! I also played with her in Solasta (another DnD game, that I suggest checking out!) He's all three of her together for the meme:

I also technically have a Redeemed Durge character that's based on another DnD character! His name is Chan, he's a warlock and a cinnamon roll who can do no wrong 🥹 (which makes me chosing him as a durge an awful parent)

and here's how he looks like!

maaaan I remember in middle school, we went to a career fair, or technology fair, or something idk - but there was a booth with a desktop PC running Tomb Raider Underworld as like a tech demo

and everyone who grew up in the 2000s or earlier has something where they remember thinking "wow this literally looks like real life, graphics will never get any better than this," but seeing Tomb Raider Underworld on that PC was the only time I ever really remember thinking that

and imo that game still looks mostly decent graphics-wise; like it's not ray tracing DLSS 4K textures god rays magic whatever, but it's stylized realistic graphics, which I think always holds up way better than just trying to be as realistic as possible

not like I'm an authority on what good graphics are anyway, I played the Tekken 8 demo and I was like wtf how is it so detailed, why do I need to see every single muscle in his chest lol

Reliving my Assassin's Creed: Revelations multiplayer era don't mind me

“Dear Diary”. Zexion’s Mystery Gear. “A weapon that draws forth its wielder’s personality.” Sleek and cold and gray exterior, decorated only by the symbol of the Organization. A tool with access to more information than a normal book can grant, and capable of holding more secrets than a normal book could store. But then, open it up- the wallpaper is an eyesearing red, so vivid in shade that it leaves afterimages. Something you wouldn't be able to see when the laptop was closed unless you used it for violence.

Mystery Gear weapons are designed for being overanalyzed as symbols. This thing represents Zexion. What’s the red wallpaper imply then, huh? Mr. “Intellectual with no room for feelings”?

I really do not care for boss fights so this is more of a curiosity then anything, but the new depth work boss main strategy is too sacrifice followers like pigs or bunnymen to attack whiles its distracted, so what is the main solo Wortox Strat since he is doesn’t actually have access to any reasonable followers to bring to the fight?

I’m fully aware this is a beta so it might change/I could have gotten something wrong but I’ve always kinda thought it interesting how Wortox is the only survivor who doesn’t get access to any allies (spiders, pigs, merms, ect) so I’m just a tad curious

Ever so often I’m tempted to try Warcraft but then I go.. No. No. I shouldn’t.

The splatoon devs live to see another day it's been a year and a half but finally custom eliter is real if they mess up its special weapon I'm going to start biting things you have No Idea

I just finished the campaign of Titanfall 2... No game has been able to hit me the same as RDR2 did years back, the only ones which came close that I can think of being Outer Wilds and ULTRAKILL (Outer Wilds probably could've succeeded at that if it wasn't for the fact I was mentally way deeper into the pit back then than I am now). But the level of immersion that has been cast upon me by its beyond fun gameplay, clever level design, beautiful voice acting and TITANS MY FAVORITE CREATURES OF METAL AND LOVE BABYYY(OBVIOUSLY WHAT ELSE DID YOU EXPECT) was able to induce feelings I craved to experience from a game for so, so long. DAMMIT THIS GAME MADE ME FEEEEEL SOMETHING AND MORE!!!

Funny thing is it actually contrasts RDR2 in many of its core aspects, yet it hit the same spot for me, just through a completely different method.

Despite me having a fair share of criticisms that I could give, I WON'T BE SHUTTING UP ABOUT IT ANYTIME SOON.

going through the jade shadows tag reveals a lot of people that should go and talk to a woman in real life
