Companion dialogues for my OCs part 1:

Father Ilya Barghest: Ilya: What brought you to your faith in your goddess, Gale? Gale: I suppose I hadn't thought about it, I've been connected to The Weave so thoroughly my whole life. Mystra is The Weave, and The Weave is a part of me. Ilya: I see! Back home in Rasheman our boys gifted with the weave are hidden from Mystra, mothers and fathers fear them attracting her eye. It is fascinating to see the difference here. ----

Shadowheart: I hope my faith won't be a problem for you, Ilmatari. Ilya: I judge my companions by actions, not words, Shadowheart. When I watch you I see a deeply feeling person with a softness towards children and animals. I think you are just petty sometimes, and really who among us is not? Besides, you have excellent taste in wine! Shadowheart: I....suppose I'll take the compliment.

---- Minsc: You are a quiet sort indeed, my holy friend! Ilya: O...Oh...y...yes, mister...um....I mean....Minsc, Sir! I...I simply don't wish to b...bother you. Minsc: Ha! It is no bother! Boo is fond of you and so too is Minsc! Ilya: O...oh! I'm...It's...it's an honor. Minsc: Eh...no, it is still a hamster.

Sentry Ojeda: Sentry: You know what? I think we've got this! We'll be rid of these tadpoles in no time! Wyll: Oh? I admire your confidence, Sentry, but what makes you say that? Sentry: Well, you know what they say! Where there's a 'Wyll' there's a way! Wyll: *stifled chuckle*

----- Shadowheart: People who stand in the middle of the path to read a map. Sentry: People who hang vapid artwork. Shadowheart: People who can afford better but serve cheap wine. Sentry: People who think the courtesan is in love with them. Shadowheart: Gods, you win. That's the worst. ---- Jaheira: Commander Ojeda was a good woman, if she saw your potential, I believe you have the power to resist Bhaal Sentry: I sure hope so. Hey...while we're talking, what was my mum like as a friend? Jaheira: Could drink a barbarian twice her size under the table, a sharp judge of character, and gods that woman was funny. The observations she made about the stuffy people we would work with.

Jaina Thalassia:

Shadowheart: Ugh...Selunite magic...that 'protection spell' is making my skin crawl. Jaina: It's almost slimy, isn't it? Wave Mother forgive me. ---- Jaina: So, Wyll, you were fond of mermaids as a child? Wyll: Yes, I always imagined meeting one in person. Still, I never imagined they'd be so beautiful. Jaina: Ha! Flatterer. Maybe some evening I'll show you my tail.... Wyll: O...Oh! Ah....ahem...

---- Lae'zel: You prove quite deadly in combat, teethling, not like your kin back at the grove. Jaina: I was raised on a pirate ship, Lae'zel, I'd imagine it's not too different from those Githyanki transports on the Astral Sea. Ah...also, tiefling. Astarion is the only 'teeth'ling.

Kana: It's good to be on the road again. A wanderlust is nothing rare in the people of Rauatai, but often I think myself alone in loving the land as much as the sea.

Kana: What shall we see next, I wonder?

Point-and-Click Lines/Voice Barks

You know those phrases bg3 characters say when you click on their portraits or direct them somewhere? Well, now Vatyrie has some as well. These are mostly basic ones with a few stealth and combat ones. Perhaps I'll add more whispered phrases, combat lines, and the funny responses to spam-clicking.

Basic:

“Charming as a devil and twice as pretty”

“Ever onward.”

“A bit of violence keeps things interesting.”

“Should’ve gone to Iriaebor when I had the chance.”

“I bet that’s worth a pretty bit of coin.”

Excited “Is that gold?" disappointed "Oh, no. Nevermind.”

“Wonder how much I can sell this for.”

"No turning back now."

"Born in fire, risen from ash"

“Nothing is freely given.”

Solemnly, like a reminder “No bonds, no barriers, no bruises.”

Stealth:

"Ready to hunt."

"Finally, some bloody fun."

"Unseen, unheard, unsuspected."

"Can't be the center of attention all the time."

"They'll never even notice."

Combat:

"Here to dance with a demi-devil?"

"Don't threaten me with a good time"

"Relentless"

"Fight or flight, you're finished either way"

"Run while you can!"

"Ruthlessness is mercy to yourself."

After spam-clicking the portrait:

“Either a good god hates me or an evil god loves me, but either way I’m surely being fucked with."

anyone else is free to do this Tav trend too! Tag me and I'd love to see other's character ideas!

Writing and looking at Fallout 4 dialogue, came across this gem:

Preston Garvey: Good lord above. Almost makes you feel sorry for those poor bastards.

Deacon: You feel sorry for them, pal. I'll just roast some marshmallows.

[lizzybeeee]

Someone on reddit posted a pic of the concept art characters from the DATV artbook and I'm just...so tired and disappointed.

We could have had Calpernia as a companion, not even mentioning Imshael.

This clearly shows that they initially - in whatever iteration of the game it is - cared about incorporating aspects of previous games. Imagine having Calpernia, Harding, and Imshael as companions and not having them comment/acknowledge the events of Inquisition! Imagine Calpernia talking and giving insight into Corypheous or Samson, or arguing with Harding in banter! Imagine Imshael talking about Michel deChevin or complaining that the Inquisitor stabbed them! Not to mention the other concept art that had Dorian and Isabela interacting - try making anything like that happen without acknowledging DA2 or DAI!

Can you imagine having all these characters in the game, then having the nerve to drop 'the south of Thedas is blighted and destroyed now lol' in a letter? No!

We live in the worst timeline with DATV - a game that utterly watered down, sanitized, and obliterated everything that came before it. A game that removed all mystery and intrigue, condensing it to "solas and the ancient elves did it lol' - telling us with no gravitas, bluntly stating it with the subtly and care of a fucking dragon in a tea shop. A game that, with no shame, went scorched earth with Ferelden, Kirkwall, and Orlais with the sole intent of clearing the board so that they can cultivate some new IP with the existing Dragon Age name.

What a fucking waste.

[Late game spoilers] Companions about the Davrin romance

Everyone but Neve (and maybe Bellara?) gets a "Rook approves" for following dialogue, post-Isle of the Gods:

Actually Lucanis gets a "Rook greatly approves" because that's so sweet T-T

Rook's dialogue:

[voicesofeternity]

Kana: Hm. What shall I tell…? I am Kana Rua, born in the royal city of Tâkowa, from which rules the Ranga Nui. There, that is a solemn enough start.

Kana: I'm a lore chanter in the college there. Or at least a student of lore and a chanter both.

Greeting Dialogues

Vatyrie's greeting/camp dialogues at different stages of companions' relationship with him.

Low Approval:

flatly "Oh. It's you. What do you want?"

exasperated "You need my help again? Are you really this incompetent?"

"You better not be here just to waste my time."

Neutral Approval:

teasing "Oh good, you're still in one piece."

"Everything alright? Well, apart from the usual."

lightly "Perfect timing, I could use a distraction."

High Approval:

"Hello. Did I miss anything?"

"Ah, there you are. Here, I've got some potions for you."

earnest "If you need anything, I'm here."

Flirty (more so than usual):

"Hello, darling. Did you miss me?~"

(pleased hum) "Back again I see."

(soft chuckle) "I knew you'd be back for more."

sultry "My, my, what a lovely view.~"

Romanced:

dotingly "My beloved, my beauty, my sweet soulfire."

reverently "Gods, you are a sight to behold. Magnificent!"

"My love! Is there anything I can do for you?"

At low approval he is very cold and passive aggressive. With an acquaintanceship, he's more warm and teasing. This is about when he would start lightly flirting as well. Once he considers someone a friend, he is more genuine, eager to help and be included, though still joking and playful at times. To his lover, he is passionate and expressive and very affectionate; he is excited to see them and tries to be attentive. Genuine friends are something he has not had in a long time, and he has likely never had a true, deep love. It is difficult to get to those relationships with him, but once someone does, he is fiercely loyal and caring.

Halsin said something like "this place is far too quiet - void of people and animals. I miss the sounds of nature" and Shadowheart offered to make animal noises for him 😭

[fourraccoonsinacoat]

Karlach: What you got there, soldier?

Durge: *Writing in a journal.* I'm jotting down notes about all our various strengths. I'm hoping it will help us create more cohesive teams for scouting and fighting.

Astarion: Did you mention my hair?

Karlach: That's not a half bad idea. What'd you say about me?

Durge: Haven't gotten to your notes yet. I'm working on Lae'zel.

Astarion: Ahem! Did you mention my hair?

Durge: *To Karlach.* What would you say are some of Lae'zel's best qualities?

Shadowheart: Her absence.

Lae'zel: I'm right here, kainyank!

Shadowheart: To my everlasting dismay.

Lae'zel: Your words are uninspired and trite. Much like the pale one's hair.

Astarion: Do speak up, Lae'zel. It's difficult to hear the opinion of an asshole when it's muffled because you're sitting down.

Durge: *To Karlach.* So far I've ascertained that our group's most prominent strengths are unrelenting cattiness and spite.

Karlach: Doesn't bode well for cohesiveness...
