The more we know of Minrathous, the easier is to see why Fenris is Like That. Excellent world building 10/10 makes sense he doesn’t see a problem with the gallows when he was living in 1984

Why yes my Shadow Dragons Rook is a human man with the most beautiful sideburns and luscious shoulder length brown hair you’ve ever seen. He has a flowing cloak that kind of resembles a cardigan and leather bracelets on either wrist all the time

His name is Matthew Mercar

After seeing @felassan's post about there being two different versions of Neve and Taash's cards, I needed to sate my curiosity and went digging to see if I could different versions of the other companions as well.

Lo and behold, there are! I found them for every companion except for Emmrich. There's no way to say with absolute certainty which is the old version and which is the new; hopefully we can get some confirmation on this.

For the time being, I went ahead and marked the differences for those who have trouble spotting this sort of thing. Hopefully it's not too overwhelming for the ones that are very marked up, but I wanted to include some of the more mundane changes as well.

Neve — The biggest changes are the crossed leg (making her prosthetic more visible) as well as the metal rivet detailing on her outfit (see: the collar, the shoulder pads, the sleeves, the skirt portion). Some of what I'm calling the more "mundane" technical changes include the lighting and shadows on her staff, her nose, and her chest.

Taash — The most notable difference here is the coins (I didn't circle all the individual coins but you get the point) and the dragon in the background. In one version, the eye is more distinct, and a bottom row of teeth have been added to the dragon's jaw. There have also been changes made in the shading of her face. Her body shape (namely, the torso and her arms) have also been changed, as well as the general shape of the "spikes" on her hips and her shoulders.

Harding — Just a couple changes here. Her eye is more white/ghostly looking in one version, and the shading on her face and neck have changed.

Lucanis — LOTS of differences. They're pretty inconsequential, by which I mean there hasn't been any added/removed/changed symbolism in his card. The shading on his nose has changed, as well as the shading on his collar, hand, forearm, armpit (didn't circle this one oops), hips, and hip dagger. The purple "wisps" have changed in shape here and there. One of the orbs in the upper left have moved, and there is another orb above that one which has been removed/added.

Davrin — Just a few changes with Davrin, though they are big ones. His face/head has been changed, and the vallaslin has been redrawn. The scar on his eyebrow has also moved slightly.

Bellara — Bellara's head has shifted and her neck elongated/shortened. There are stars in the background and around her arm in one version.

As for Emmrich, I mentioned I could only find one version. I did compare the image we currently have with what I believe is the earliest Emmrich art that was shared with us (a cropped version of his card) by overlaying the two on Photoshop and didn't see any differences.

And that's it! You might have also noticed that some of the versions on the right hand side have a white line at the top of the image. Make of that what you will.

(People viewing this post on PC will have an easier time quickly clicking back and forth between the images to spot the difference. If you're on the mobile app and care enough to do so, you might have an easier time saving the images and flipping through them in your photo album. At least I know it's easier if you have an iPhone, I don't know about other models.)

Depends on the story.

Ugh, Hardings Romance!!!!

She doesnt hear you flirting with her! And when she does she immediately blushes and tries to push it to her moving stones! She 'drags' you into every trip she takes to get to know about her situation. She takes classes at the Lords of Fortunes Camp, she is telling you when shes kissing you, she then proceeds to call you a boob(!!!!) When she realizes she drugged you with lyrium, and then escapes your lyrium lovedrunk attempts to reach out to her so she doesnt turn your head into mush, people are watching you stumble over your stupid little body, she asks the necromancer for help with her magic, she glows when she sees you bc she adores you so much!!!

Theory: What if the Veilguard ends up needing to use the time magic Dorian created? Rook fucked up that ritual Solas was doing, unleashed these gods, and now we have to go to the past and unfuck it? If we try, it probably won't work out properly, but Gods do I want to try.

What if we fuck up the magic and go all the way back in time to before the Veil existed? What if Bioware lied and we'll see Solas' beautiful hair physically in person instead of in a flashback?

what tag are we using from now on guys 🤔

NEVE GALLUS | veiltober prompt day eight

[bugmush]

i am with you all on the frustration about the choices carrying over to veilguard, but specifically i cannot tell you how fucked it is that it seems likely we will get no update on the southern mages after possibly given freedom by a divine leliana. like this was a conflict built up over the last 3 games and thats just... it? considering how much bioware pushed the both sides narrative shouldnt that choice have, i dont know, consequences?? just really disappointing how many doors they're closing with this game since i highly doubt we will be getting another dragon age game after this.
