PSTTT IN A SEPARATE BAG CAN I GET SOME DEALER’S CHOICE JUST FOR ME? - @jtl-fics

WIP Wednesday 10/11/23 (OPEN) | Dealer's Choice - Dragon Age AU

Seth tried his best to ignore the lightning that had just shot from the big metal spike ball at the end of this stick he was wielding. He did what he knew best and he used the staff as a weapon to hit with. It knocked the creature towards Cassandra who had turned around to come after the one that was after Seth. She sprung into action smacking the creature down with the shield and Seth noticed that the creature pulsed with electricity. She made the killing blow and immediately turned onto Seth. 

“Drop your weapon! Now!” She said sword pointing to him. 

“Okay!” Seth said and he started to lower the spikey ball stick. “Have it your way.”

“Wait,” Cassandra said and she stood up, putting her sword away. “You don’t need a staff, but you should have one. I can not protect you.” 

“That’s what this is a staff? And the lightning? What was that?” Seth blurted out before he could stop himself. 

Cassandra looked at him completely surprised and almost taken aback. “You really don’t know anything, do you?” Seth shook his head. He thought he made that very clear when they first met. “Stick close, if we survive this I'll find a mage who can train you. For now, continue what you were doing.”

Like, man, he's the Keeper's First. He's meant to be next in line to lead his clan. He knows all the lore and history he possibly can of his people, passed down through oral tradition. He was sent to spy on the conclave and ends up with ancient elven magic that may eventually kill him. And then he falls in love with the right hand of the Divine, the woman who interrogated him about the events of the conclave that he had no memory of. Who is a follower of a faith he doesn't believe in. A faith who's followers have buried his people's accomplishments and involvement in key events and driven his people from their ancestral lands. There is so much potential for conflict and yet they manage to work it out. I love it!

EXCITING NEWS GUYS

i have started development on my first ever renpy game. i'm so excited since this is something i've wanted to do for a while now, but renpy always kinda scared me. but i've finally put it into action and i'm really looking forward to the journey ahead.

the game is still in extremely early development, but i have planned an outline of the plot, written some scripts, and have come up with so many ideas i want to share with you all.

as you can see, it is a dai fan game. if anyone knows if i can get sued for this, please let me know lmao

i don't want to give too much away but here are some features i'm planning to include:

you can choose from 17 different characters to play as (12 will be available straight off the bat, and 5 will be secret routes that are unlocked via other routes). these are all characters from inquisition.

you get to decide who your character ends up with, or even stay single if you want to be.

you can end up in a polyamorous relationship with (almost) free reign as to which characters that relationship includes.

no two routes are the same. each route will have the same plot but you can make it your own through your choices. remember; just because picking option b worked for your dorian playthrough, doesn't mean it'll work when you're playing as cullen.

there are a LOT of choices that genuinely impact the direction of the story.

each character has a bunch of different endings and they're all carefully tailored to your decisions.

as the game is still in early development, with only a faint outline holding it together, plans can change. however, as far as i know, this is how many endings each character can have:

the dorian route has 8 endings and 7 secret endings.

the iron bull route has 11 endings and 6 secret endings.

the varric route has 10 endings and 6 secret endings.

the cullen route has 10 endings and 5 secret endings.

the sera route has 6 endings and 5 secret endings.

the leliana route has 11 endings and 7 secret endings.

the cole route as 3 endings and 4 secret endings.

the josephine route has 11 endings and 5 secret endings.

the blackwall route has 10 endings and 3 secret endings.

the cassandra route has 9 endings and 6 secret endings.

the solas route has 10 endings and 3 secret endings.

the vivienne route has 3 endings and no secret endings.

i have tried to provide as much freedom as possible when it comes to pairings, but there are a few exceptions:

dorian and sera are still gay/lesbian and can only be romanced by characters of the same gender - so naturally they will have less endings as their options are restricted.

cole doesn't have a lot of romantic endings as there were only one or two characters i felt comfortable writing him with (so far only dorian has a cole romance ending, and cole has three secret romantic endings). this could change in the future but definitely not for characters such as varric and solas who cole shares a very parental relationship with., or for vivienne due to the power difference between them that would make me extremely uncomfortable to write.

vivienne also doesn't have a lot of romantic endings but that's more to do with the fact i struggle to write her in romantic scenes. again, this could change.

the rest are all free to romance whoever they want. cullen can romance a man (or two or three). cassandra can romance a woman (or two or three). basically there's no such thing as straight in this game. go nuts.

i will keep you all updated as i progress. the game will take a long while to create and i would appreciate any advice/help/suggestions etc to make it enjoyable for everyone. i would also appreciate the support from you guys as i dive into my first game making experience.

but just remember i am a single 20 year old girl who's doing this in her free time. i don't have a huge team behind me so the game is going to take a lot of time and effort to become something playable.

follow the tag ' #the dai kissing game ' if you want to keep updated on the game's progress.

thank you guys!!

ALSO SOME DRAGON AGE FOR DESSERT - @jtl-fics

WIP Wednesday 10/11/23 (OPEN) | Dragon Age AU

“A woman?” Seth asked and Cassanda made a noise of confirmation. 

“No one knows who she was, everything further into the valley was laid to waste. Including the temple of sacred ashes.” Cassandra explained. “You’ll see soon enough.”

Cassandra then picked up the pace leading Seth over a bridge—but before either of them knew it the breach expanded again and as Seth was managing to push through a green light exploded down and destroyed the bridge. Causing Seth and Cassandra to fall and tumble down rubble onto a frozen river. Seth was surprised as he was able to pull himself up to his feet. He knew that shouldn’t have been possible as he watched Cassandra immediately step into action. Going after a cloaked inhuman monster that appeared out of the green blast. A Demon? Seth asked and before he knew it he watched the same creature come out of green and black sludge that disappeared as the green light shot out behind it. Seth frantically looked around and saw a long stick with a metal ball with spikes laying to the side near a broken open chest. Can’t be too much different then an Exy stick. He thought as he grabbed it and held it as such. Swinging it. He watched as lightning shot out the metal and coursed through the creature. What the fuck? What was that?

Whatever It Takes

Setting: Dragon Age Inquisition Trespasser

Pairing: Cassandra Pentagast x Hellendil Lavellan

Trigger Warnings: Blood, Dismemberment

Word Count: 952

A short blurb to go with the included renders of my third Inquisitor, Hellendil, and his chosen love interest, Cassandra (boy truly has a hard time making decisions on things, relationships included). Set during the Trespasser DLC in between ending scenes. Contains spoilers if you haven't completed the DLC.

Down on one knee before the towering eluvian, Hellendil clutches his staff, fighting to keep himself upright. He wishes he could follow Solas through the mirror and convince him to stop, but he's just too weak. The anchor has taken its toll and even though it is gone now, he needs a moment to regain his strength. He knows Solas will be long gone by the time he recovers enough to follow. The ancient elf knew exactly where each of these eluvians led and how they worked. He will be impossible to track. The inquisitor takes a deep breath. And another.

Whatever spell Solas used to sever his arm and prevent the anchor from killing him had also cauterized the wound. What remains of his arm continues to throb, only a small amount of blood still oozing and dripping onto the stone slabs of the ancient ruin. He lets out a sigh and summons his strength to pull himself up. Using his staff for support, he cautiously descends the stairs, weaving his way around the petrified qunari. He flinches as he passes the first one, the wound still fresh. Before reaching the inner sanctum, he was forced to take down The Iron Bull, who remained loyal to the Ben-Hassrath and turned on him and his companions.

He wonders just how many mistakes and ill- advised choices he'd made over the course of the last three years. His heart aches at the thought. Maybe the Arl was right. Maybe the Inquisition should be disbanded. But he didn't want to make that choice alone. Especially after everything that's happened the last few days. He needed time to think and someone to talk to.

When he reaches the landing, he looks up at the eluvian that will take him back to his friends, his energy nearly spent. As he pushes on through the archway, he drops the staff and grasps the frame of the mirror to keep himself from falling. He groans and grits his teeth as the impact jars his injured arm.

Across the courtyard, his companions hear the scuffle and groan, and look in his direction. "Hellendil!" Cassandra gasps, and quickly closes the distance between them.

At the sound of her approach, he lets go of the eluvian and stumbles into her arms, clinging to her as if he thought he would never see her again. She holds him close as he buries his face in the crook of her neck. "Maker! What happened!?" she whispers, the concern in her voice undeniable.

"I couldn't stop him," he replies, his brow furrowed with pain and disappointment that he couldn't convince the man he'd called friend to abandon his quest.

Cassandra lowers him to the ground and kneels beside him, gently squeezing his thigh. "He did this to you?"

He reaches for her and squeezes her arm, while catching her gaze, "He prevented the anchor from killing me. You have me now for as long as it takes for him to institute his plan, unless we can find a way to stop him." He pauses, knowing how the information he's about to share will sound. There is a pleading look in his eyes as he continues, "They are real, Cassandra. The elven gods are real, and Solas is one of them."

She tries to suppress an incredulous look, but fails. "You are weak and delusional. We must get you back to the Winter Palace and a healer."

"You're right. I do need to see a healer, but this is the truth, Cassandra." His hand moves to cup her cheek while his thumb ghosts over her cheek bone. He loves her dearly, but he knows her devotion to the Maker is making it hard for her to fathom the truth he's revealing. "I've collected enough information here and at the Temple of Mythal to prove it. They weren't some abstract concept, beings above and beyond us, but real people who our ancestors devoted themselves to. Solas was one and he intends to attempt to restore the world to what it was before he bound his fellows. These ruins, temples were built by his followers. You've seen the information we've uncovered here. It's not a trick or a fairy tale.

"Whether you believe me or not, we need to find a way to stop him or convince him to stop before he destroys this world. The anchor. It's what he used millenia ago to separate the fade from the waking world. He's going to use it to tear down the veil. If the breach is any indication of what will happen, the entire world will be thrown into chaos."

Shock is written across her face at this revelation. When she recovers, Cassandra studies his face. She can see that he is both physically and emotionally drained from everything they've been through these past few days. And that he's not lying. She doesn't know how to process what he's told her. She reaches for him, caressing his cheek. He leans into her touch and kisses her palm. Her stoic look melts and she embraces him, fingers curling in his long locks. "I don't know what all of this means, but I am with you. Whatever Solas is, we can't let him succeed. Whatever it takes."

A soft smile brightens his face as he pulls her closer, no small feat considering the armor she's wearing and his weakened state.  “Whatever it takes,” he echoes, his resolve bolstered by her support.  He inhales sharply and allows himself to rest there in her arms.  They will need to get moving soon, but right now he needed a moment to breathe and take comfort in his beloved’s strength.

[elmo-f-tree]

hi! hello! are you thinking about watching dragon age absolution but are worried you won’t know what’s going on because you haven’t played the games? i’m here to help! here are some bare bones basics to help understand the series!

-Game order: Origins, 2, then Inquisition.

-Classes: Warrior, rogue, and mage. All are self-explanatory if you are familiar with fantasy in any way.

-Races: There are humans which are just humans. They can act as any of the three classes. You can play as a human in all 3 games. Elves experience fantasy racism and tend to live in alienages inside of cities or in Dalish clans outside of cities. They are slightly shorter than humans. They can also act as any of the three classes. You can play as an elf in Origins and Inquisition but not 2. Dwarves tend to live underground unless their family has been shunned or some other series of events led them to the surface. They are shorter than both humans and elves and usually stockier in build. They have no connection to the Fade so they cannot be mages and cannot dream. They can be either rogues or warriors. You can play as a dwarf in Origins and Inquisition but not 2. Qunari are horned, grey-skinned people from Par Vollen unless they are Tal Vashoth which just means they don’t live by the Qun which I will explain later. They are taller than all of the other races. They can also be any of the three classes. You can only play as a Qunari in Inquisition.

-Creatures: Nugs are kind of like hairless rabbits. They’re all over the place. I’m pretty sure Miriam had a nug stuffed animal in one of the flashbacks. Shades are depicted in the series as the somewhat purple and look like they’re wearing robes. Pride demons are what the spirit of wisdom turned into when Rezaren pressured it into giving information it didn’t want to. Rage demons in the games look like they are made of lava and in the series look somewhat like glowing amorphous salamanders. Corpses are just reanimated corpses.

-Religions: The Qun is everything structuring the society in Par Vollen. It is the religion and the governmental rules. The Chant of Light is generally seen as the primary religion of Thedas (the world). The Maker is the main deity along with his wife Andraste. All of the religious figures of the Chant, except for in Tevinter, are women. In Tevinter, the Divine is a man. Dalish religion does not appear in the series, so I won’t be covering it here. However, it’s important to the games, which you will learn about if you decide to play them.

-Other Figures: The Inquisition was an organization formed during the events of Inquisition lead by the Herald of Andraste (the player character), Cassandra Pentagast, Leiliana, Cullen Rutherford, and Josephine Montilyet. The Herald of Andraste emerges from a large rift in the sky that appeared after an explosion at the Temple of Sacred Ashes (a sacred place to those who believe in the Chant) with a glowing mark on their hand that allowed them to seal other smaller rifts. They later go onto become the main leader of the Inquisition, gaining the title of Inquisitor. Cassandra is a Seeker which is one form of religious knight that the Chantry (leadership of the Chant of Light). She originally believes the Herald to be at fault for the explosion but later finds that is not the case. She worked directly under Divine Justinia, who was killed in the explosion, as her right hand. She can become the next Divine depending on your actions in Inquisition. Leiliana is a rogue, a spy, and a bard who is one of the Hero of Ferelden’s (player character) companions in Origins. She also worked directly under Divine Justinia except as her left hand. She becomes the Inquisition’s spymaster. She can also become the next Divine depending on your actions in Inquisition. Knight Commander Meredith is a character from 2. She leads the Templars, the other form of religious knights, in the city of Kirkwall for the duration of the game. At the end of the game Hawke (player character), is forced to kill her as she has been driven mad by a statue made of red lyrium, which I will elaborate on more later. Upon her death, she turns into a statue of red lyrium. She is the one in the red stone depicted at the end of the series.

The Blight: The Blight is likely the hardest piece of lore to explain to someone who has not played the games. Essentially, it is a disease whose exact cause is not entirely known. There is an explanation for its creation through the creation of the Darkspawn in the Chant of Light. However, it is unknown if that explanation is true. The story goes that Tevinter Magister’s in an attempt to prove their power walked into the Black City, basically the non-corporeal city of the Maker, and were then turned into the first Darkspawn. The Darkspawn are the carriers of the Blight. They’re pretty similar to zombies. The Darkspawn usually reside in the Dark Roads, underground tunnels that make dwarves’ subterranean lives dangerous, except during Blights. During blights they go to the surface. If a Darkspawn breaks skin with any form of their attacks, you will become infected with the Blight. Blights begin when Darkspawn seek out and find an Archdemon. Grey Wardens are people infected with the Blight in a specific way that it isn’t an immediate death sentence so that they can fight Darkspawn and kill Archdemons, ending Blights.

Lyrium: There are two forms of lyrium. The typical form is blue. It can be used by mages to replenish their mana or as an addictive, performance enhancing substance by non-mages. The other form is red. Red lyrium is lyrium infected with the blight, which gives it the ability to drive people mad. I generally think of it as being radioactive. Since only living things can be infected with the blight, we are forced to assume that lyrium is actually alive in some way. This could help to explain why Meredith is alive after the ending of 2.

Congrats on reading this far! You should be able to understand at least most of the lore mentioned in the series! I’m not going to say you will understand enough to talk about it with those of us who have played the games, but I only have so much time. Feel free to add on if you feel I’m missing something important! Or drop an ask in my inbox!

14 Days of Dragon Age Lovers

Prompt: Pride (2022 list)

For @14daysdalovers writing prompts :D

Pairing: Implied Cassandra Pentagast x Solas

Rating: G

Her pride wouldn't let her admit it, would not allow her to acknowledge that the man protecting her stirred more than just the spirits around him when he drew near. No way would she allow herself to entertain the idea that she had anything other than a passing fancy for the man.

No, she must endure this precarious case of unrequited infatuation herself.

Staring out past the horizon, hands grasping the railing in front of her, Varric broke Cassandra out of her revery, causing her to jump.

“Now Seeker, a royal for your thoughts? I almost never get the jump on you.” He laughed, turning to lean against the balcony railing.

Bristling, she hoped he didn’t catch sight of a blush burning her ears and face.

“It is nothing, Varric.” 

“Nothing? Nothing?”’ He waved his arms in emphasis. “Nothing tra, la la?” He laughed when she rolled her eyes. ”Nothing doesn’t usually look like a love sick kid,” she bristled again and signed in disgust.

“It is nothing, Varric, and you would do well to leave me be.” SHe leaned heavily on her arm, head bowed. Her stance radiated embarrassment and hopelessness. As Varric scuffed his feet and drummed his fingers against the railing, she mulled over her thoughts.

“You know, you’re allowed to do more than just stab things with your sword.” He spoke softly, like she was a horse about to be spooked. It made her feel even more foolish.

“I know Varric, but what would even come of it? He does not even believe in the Maker, let alone his own gods.”

“Wait, you’re not pining over Curly?” The disbelief in his voice startled her into a straighter position, turning to stare at him with wide eyes.

“You think I am enamored with the Commander?!” 

“Who else would you be swooning over?”

“Solas!” She clamped her hands over her mouth and stared at Varric, her face flushed with embarrassment.

“Chuckles? Well, shit.” rubbing a hand across his face, he looked up at her through his fingers. “It’s the brooding, isn’t it?”

“Forget I said anything, Varric” She ground out between her teeth.  She turned and stalked off towards the smithy.

“You know, Hawke likes them broody too!” Varric called after her, shaking his head and laughing.

~*~

Cassandra lay face down on her pallet, face buried in her pillow and fought the urge to scream.

‘That little weasel, I’ll have him sent to the dungeons’

[maddies-writings]

The Dragon Age Discord gave me a hand so here are the 'names' for all the Companions and Advisors!

Solas is Shoe Lace Dorian is Durian Varric is Ferret Cullen is Sullen Vivienne is Vivisection Cassandra Pentagast is Pentagram Leliana is Lazy Awning or Dining Victory Josephine Montilyet is Money Yay Thom Rainier is Bond Painter Sera is Sclera Cole is Coal Iron Bull is Isle Bowl

Good old Great Uncle Albert. He can't hear too well, remember things, or be bothered to care.

So Far Away Character Idea!

BEST IDEA! Evelyn has a great uncle who is clearly too old to still be walking and barely remembers where he is half the time. This is basically a joke character but there's gotta be some comedy in my Solavelyan story and wacky in-laws are always fun. I want him to call everyone the wrong name.

Solas is Shoe Lace Dorian is Durian Varric is Ferret

I need help coming up with the other companions and advisors. Preferably they would be called things, not actual people's names.

[notebooks-and-laptops]

Cassandra and Varrics dynamic is fucking amazing like they're constantly snapping at each other and they make fun of each other and she is So Done With Him but ALSO he is without a shadow of a doubt her favourite author of all time and so she's OBSESSED with him at the same time but also he annoys her SO MUCH every day like what a DYNAMIC we love to see it
