TALES FROM THE "DARK COUNTRY" - FREGIAN MAGE LORD OB-HORST PRESENTING BEFORE THE DRAGON PATRIARCH HIS FIRST--AND ARGUABLY HIS MOST SUCCESSFUL--APPRENTICE

...This is most excellent, My Lord! I never would have guessed amongst my Fregian children there'd be a magickal gene or two still waiting to be utilized! I still feel quite

Amazed myself, Your Eminence! Having been duly informed by Lord Morforoko and Lady Greli-Vnia--about my people's lack of magickal acumen--is disconcerting at first!

But fortunately...it's only but a matter of attuning one's mental attributes to one's environment; like my pupil Miss Gelavia Tekonton will show you in a moment...!

The stage is yours, my child! (Gasp) Such unique talent, My Lord! I have but a dozen more like her, Your Eminence! Ready to defend our city's perimeter at a moment's notice! I am pleased, My Lord! Very pleased!

the charge up

[toastytrusty]

before i go to sleep need to talk about how insane the viktor as the mage that saved jayce as a child reveal was. at first i didn't really like it but it only makes sense. the mage was a perfect, benevolent, idealized version of the arcane. jayce spent his Whole damn life striving towards that mage, trying to recreate his talents and recreate his gift because he was so grateful for everything he did for him. and his whole dream for this began to revolve around viktor. his dream of hextech, his dream of magic. because it was always about viktor. because in the end he didn't want to give magic to the people, he just wanted his partner back. it was never about the arcane, not really. it was just about viktor. it was affection keeping them together. not to mention how viktor strays so drastically from this beautiful and altruistic version of magic as he gets obsessed with perfection and corrupted by the hexcore, and jayce is literally the only thing in any universe that can remind him what they were fighting for, not by bringing up anything to do with the arcane at all, but by talking about viktor himself; how he's beautiful, how he's perfect. by giving him back the stone that started his whole journey, and letting it end their journey together. like an exchanging of vows. because it was always about viktor. and the hextech doesn't matter as long as he has viktor, his motivation and energy and literal source of life for as long as he can remember. they saved each other's lives, more than once. to jayce, viktor is perfect and has always been perfect and always will be perfect. because they're literally soulmates i need to sit down

NIGHTFALL OF NEW HAVEN - THE DESPAIRING MAGE LORD RELUCTANTLY ACCEPTS THE DRAGON ELDER'S "TECHNOLOGY" TO REVIVE HIS BROTHER

...Is this how you treat an unarmed man coming into your lair, Patriarch--by aiming all your deadly projectiles at him?! Forgive me Mage Lord Czardynne but there's been a lot of hostile infiltrations of late; and your arrival is most unexpected, forsooth! So what do I owe the pleasure of your visit today, My Lord? (Sigh) My only brother Ob-Horst is showing little signs of...! His life force energy forever leaches out ever since

That accursed demon right beside you (Lord Tethremus) ripped out our sacred heirloom (The Ethereal Puzzle) from inside his body! My Liege The Holy Monarch is fearful of hearing the worst but I...! (Sigh) I beseech thee! Save my dear brother! Forsooth I've but exhausted all my resources of late...I'll try anything even if it means...! Going against your principles! I'm sorry about your brother, My Lord! And I will do my best to revive him!

Lay your brother onto this holographic bed, My Lord! At once, Patriarch...! My friend? Please summon Lord Morforoko and Lady Greli-Vnia at once! Right away, Master...! By All The Creator Aspects...! I'm surprised he's still alive, Morforoko! Is it too late to save him, Greli-Vnia? Well...I remember reading about an astromedical experiment--a very radical one that involved merging a Fregian life force with a synthesized energy source--

From the Ethereal Puzzle pieces! I think I can reverse engineer the process but we...! (Sigh) We have to first transition him into a Fregas to do so! (Gasp) Isn't there any other way, My Lady? No...unfortunately not...Lord Groud...! Hence you must now decide, Mage Lord Czardynne: Your principles? Or your family? Alas Ob-Horst is my only family left albeit he won't forgive me if I allowed him to become a Primeval Lord! (Sigh) Forgive me, brother...! Yes, please! We won't let you down, My Lord!

Dragon Age: The Veilguard mage armour sets, ranked

I've managed to compile the starter and aspirational armour sets for each class, starting with mage. Mage definitely has the least consistent looks across all the factions - the ones I like, I really like, the ones I do not like, I REALLY do not like.

As we like to credit, these screenshots are also courtesy of @kalaelizabeth's character creator deep dive video.

Unranked - Starting armour

The starting armour sets appear to be the same for all factions and only differ slightly by class. It's not the worst starting armour Dragon Age has ever had (I really hate the one you get in Inquisition that makes it look like the Herald doesn't have a neck), but it's not the best either. There are definitely story reasons for why it looks the way it does, but as I'm keeping this spoiler-free that's all I'm going to say on the matter.

6. Mourn Watch

Unfortunately Mourn Watch comes in last again, and y'all, I absolutely HATE this. I know what people who want to play Mourn Watch are looking for, and "Victorian mortician at the end of a long shift" is NOT it. The worst part is, I think there is probably something not as bad under there, and I have no idea why on earth they decided to cover it up with a dirty, dingy sheet. I hate this so much I am never going to play this faction and class.

5. Grey Wardens

Snooze, boring! Past Dragon Ages have had better Warden sets, imo. (I'm thinking 2 and Inquisition here).

4. Veil Jumpers

I actually don't hate this, and Veil Jumper is pretty consistent across all the classes in terms of having a defined look, but it's still too much brown. How nice would a little pop of green look here? It needs SOMETHING.

3. Shadow Dragons

I'll be honest - the top three are really tied here. I think they're all really great and establish a defined aesthetic for the faction, class, and are visually interesting. I love the pattern here, and I think these shades of red and blue are unexpected but look great together. And it's just the right level of flash for a Tevinter mage.

2. Antivan Crows

It's sleek, it's chic, it's deadly. Exactly what I want for an Antivan Crow. I LOVE the feathers and how they have a slight iridescence. It also does what I wish the casual look did and has silver detailing instead of gold. Gold should belong to Lords of Fortune ONLY.

Lords of Fortune

I expect this look will be EXTREMELY divisive among fans, but personally I think "mage who loves gold and the beach" is an incredible concept for the class. I could even stand MORE stacked bracelets. More is more!

You can also find posts about the casual looks here. Rogue and warrior will be coming out over the weekend!

Being able to play a melee spellcaster was my favourite part of Veilguard.

[chronurgy]

Bioware please all I want is a list of rook's possible last names and any assumptions the game will make about rook based on their background and class combo pleaseeeeee I want to start designing my little guy but I need them to be (mostly) canon compliant
