First post here!

And that of course shall be a tribute to Auda! He's been with me for over 10 years now, starting as my fursona! He has come a long way, I've loved him for a decade and I will love him for many decades more

BLIGHTED

DRAGON AGE: HEAVY AU

 Blighted is a mature 3-3-3 rated, heavily alternate universe Dragon Age RPG. Currently taking place in 9:30 Dragon. And despite the start of the fifth blight being around the same as in game - it does not mean we explore a timeline familiar and experienced during Dragon Age: Origins, Dragon Age II, or Dragon Age: Inquisition. We explore the idea of an alternate Thedas. A timeline that veers off the well worn path that we get to walk in the games. Join us as we experience a different reality of Thedas, with new adventures, new threats, and new sides to take. You can find an assortment of things like new specializations, new races, and beyond! Or find new events among glimmers of familiarity. Come along on the grand adventures that await. Where new characters, and some more familiar ones forge their way through a new and exciting timeline.  

In the wake of the Blighted Summit, where would-be rulers and war councils gathered in Ostagar to determine the fate of Thedas, tensions remain high and the battle against the Fifth Blight rages on. With Ferelden overrun, darkspawn forces creep further into the Free Marches and Orlais, leaving devastation in their wake. A nation stands divided, each side accused of treachery, while fractured nations struggle to unite under wavering banners. Meanwhile, whispers of ancient bloodlines, lost magic, and creatures of legend emerging from the shadows stir fear and intrigue alike. As war looms and the world teeters on the edge of ruin, who will rise, who will fall—and who will claim the future of Thedas?

My favourite moment in cinema history is when Peter O'Toole gets his new clothes in Lawrence of Arabia and starts prancing around all fruity and queer in the desert with his robes and new cape and then it cuts to Auda Abu Tayi frowning at him.

You're not "busy", you're just "lazy"

Ah, dear Anonymous, proud citizen of the ever-thriving and ever-growing metropolis of Auda!!!

I see you have arrived today bearing the most astounding revelation—one that must have required unparalleled wisdom, deep contemplation, and no doubt an intense study of my personal affairs.

"You’re not ‘busy,’ you’re just ‘lazy.’”

Fascinating.

Such an insight could only be delivered by one who possesses a mind sharper than Eöl’s finest blade, a perception keener than the keenest eyes of the Eldar.

And yet—allow me to counter your revelation with one of my own.

You see, the esteemed individual who lends their hands and wit to our words—our dear OP, whom Eredin and I hold in the highest regard—happens to be among the most industrious souls I have ever known. I cannot reveal too much, of course (the secrecy must be maintained, lest the shadows of Auda send forth their agents to uncover her many deeds), but suffice it to say: she does a great deal.

A great deal more, I would wager, than you, noble Anonymous, who sits upon your lofty throne of indolence and proclaims judgment upon those who actually move.

Busy, she is. Tirelessly so. She writes, she works, she studies, she creates. To claim her efforts as "laziness" is akin to saying that a Balrog is merely a candle with aspirations. It is absurd.

Oh, dearest Anonymous, most esteemed oracle of my personal affairs, knower of all things, seer of truths—tell me, what grand feats have you accomplished today?

Did you rise at dawn to forge the very pillars of Arda with your bare hands?

Did you compose an epic so moving that the Valar themselves wept upon hearing it?

Have you, perhaps and it is just a thought, even managed to accomplish something as simple as minding your own business?

Or did you simply crawl out of your little hole, crack your knuckles, and think, Ah yes, today I shall bestow my divine wisdom upon the masses and inform someone I do not know that they are lazy?

You have contributed to what, exactly? A single line of uninspired drivel meant to provoke? How noble. How useful. I am sure the history books shall sing of your deeds for generations to come.

So, let me extend to you a most generous piece of advice: the next time you feel the urge to open your mouth (or let your fingers run wild across your keyboard) with nothing but nonsense to offer, consider, perhaps, the revolutionary concept of not doing that.
