#nell tabris

[beansprouts]

between Origins and Awakening I was able to get all my character customization mods (and Real Pigment which is actual magic, highly recommend) working so Nell can look as she was originally intended before I accidentally deleted my chargenmorph file, as well as more appropriate for a canonically biracial Tabris. She still has her chronic resting blankly-staring-into-the-distance face, though. I think it gives her an Aradia Megido-esque charm. One assumes she’s not paying attention until she opens her mouth to pass a single (Persuade) check and resolve every conflict with wit as sharp as her daggers.

Image descriptions: two screenshots from Dragon Age: Origins (Awakening expansion) On the left, Warden Commander Nell Tabris, a dark-skinned elf with short blue braided hair, wide blue eyes, and purple light armour is pictured in profile in dim lighting, with her two swords visible sheathed on her back, and Warden Anders pictured in the background. On the right, the same Tabris stands in the warmly lit throne room of Vigil’s Keep next to an armor-clad Seneschal Varel.

Casually posting all of my Dragon Age OCs all together like one big happy dysfunctional family.

I definitely need to play some a bit more, but I love them all your honor, and they all share timelines with the herald they’re below/the hero they’re above.

brosca origin is crazy btw it changes EVERYTHING. literally the only origin where things undeniably improve after joining the wardens

Be Your Worst Self!

Tagged by: @zeesqueere And I shall tag: @icy-warden, @madamsnark, @raymurata, and @starla-nell and anybody else who feels like it but it seems to have made the rounds.

The quiz is here: https://psych2go.net/this-quiz-will-accurately-reveal-the-creepiest-thing-about-you/

Macsen Surana:

You Are An Emotionally Volatile Nightmare

Your heart guides you and sometimes that's not as dreamy or romantic as it might sound. It's true that your feelings often inspire you to heal and create, and as long as those feelings don't steer you wrong, you're capable of truly visionary accomplishments in the name of empathy and love.

Feelings, though, aren't always gentle and sweet. You know that better than anyone, because your own emotions - the same overwhelming forces that inspire you to make the world a better place - can take you to very dark places, especially if you believe that the subject of your ire has shown unwarranted cruelty toward you or something you hold dear. You know that your feelings aren't necessarily rational, but that doesn't stop you from dramatically blaming other people for causing you pain. Of course, you might not even stop at crying; that notoriously brilliant creativity might even spur you to express your wrath artistically - nothing says “emotional stability” like a morose, vengeful poem.

Yeah, no lies detected. “It’s because I wanted to go to the pet store, isn’t it? Anyway, I’ll have you know my feelings are super rational.”

Ceilidh Tabris:

You're A Narcissistic Monster

You're the best - right? Wherever you go, the spotlight finds you, and you're hardly complaining. You can't imagine your friends care, since, after all, you're so generous. Well, that's what you like to think about yourself. You're generous, enthusiastic, and fun, so if you compulsively steal the spotlight, it doesn't really matter. If you fuel drama just to feed your thirst for a dramatic life, is it really that bad? Is it really so wrong for you to be the center of attention? Does it really matter how other people feel about it in the long run? Of course, you'd never say no. You're the generous friend, and you'd never hurt anyone on purpose just to keep all eyes on you... right? Every now and then, you imagine your funeral and how all of your friends will go on and on about how wonderful, magnetic, charming, and generous you were.

Ceilidh is unimpressed with this result.

“It might be neat to be completely ignored for once but that isn’t gonna happen so I might as well do what I do, and get to be known for what I want to be known for. I thought I was bout to get the one about violence.”

House of Chaos by Sarai Henderson

Genre: Young Adult, Fiction My rating:  ★ ★ ☆ ☆ ☆ Thank you to Netgalley for providing this copy in exchange for a honest review Add this book on Goodreads

Sixteen years ago, Tabri showed up in the mountains an orphaned child with the magic of the Chaotics running through her veins. She survived the bitter winter, the wrath of a yeti, and mutinied on the flying pirate ship Stallings, but then the Madnesi came. Nell’s Furyon bloodline and elemental magic make her the perfect warrior. Perfect to revenge her sister’s death at the hand of a Madnesi Lord, to defend the Chaotic until her magic fully emerges and to defeat the masses of rotting undead who threaten the survival of the Wilders. If only there was more time in the day. The Earth Stone has given the two companions a path to safety, but Tabri’s magic is on the fritz and Nell has completely lost her mind with grief. Can they hold it together long enough to allow Chaos to shine a light in the darkness, or will the Madnesi destroy all magic in the world along with the prophecy?

This review contains no spoilers

After reading the description of this book I thought I would really enjoy reading this, but unfortunately that wasn’t the case. The idea and storyline behind the book sounds really good but I feel like the book could have been written better. It took me a long time to read this book because for some reason I just couldn’t get into it. I would have gotten to know the characters better but there are barely any backstories to the characters. Tabri also forms relationship with the characters really fast while she doesn’t really get to know them. I feel like the book would be a lot better with a better description of the characters she meets. The events in this book also happen too fast, everything happens in just a couple of days and for some reason that just feels very unrealistic. I feel like there could have been more breaks in the story. During those breaks you could have gotten to know the characters and the story better but unfortunately that didn’t happen. I feel bad for only giving this book two stars, if the book was written differently I’m sure I would have liked it a lot better.

Words of Wisdom From My OCs

I was tagged by @mocha-writes, to find out what sort of life advice my crew would share if they were feeling helpful.

I’m going to duplicate tag a lot of the same people because I think we all need the advice that certain heroes would supply.  >:D

So anyway, @raymurata, @madamsnark, @panterry, @icy-warden, @starla-nell, and @secretbraintwin please share the wise words of your fictional friends, if you feel like it.

Macsen Surana:

“Spend the money while you have it. Eat the fruit while it's ripe. Love your people while they're with you.”

“If you're not sure what would be the right thing to do, try the kind thing. Maybe it'll work out, maybe it won't, but it'll be easier to live with yourself.”

“Always remember who owes you favors.”

“Fuck the Chantry.”

“If your battle strategy involves 'mages to the front' then they at least need to dress like rogues. Robes are useless.”

Ceilidh Tabris:

“Fuck the nobility. I mean not LITERALLY that's gross.”

“Polyamory is fun and all, but you need to communicate really well and not be jealous of your lover's oldest friend. It also helps to expect the unexpected so that you aren't too awkward when said friend accidentally brings your cousin over to play. I mean, just as a hypothetical.”

“Don't actually bang your cousin, all right? Sometimes what people really need is more family, anyway.”

“Human friends, don't ask what the meat is. It's rude and you don't actually want to know.”

“If they put you in charge, it's a trap. If you do well, you'll have to do more of it. If you do badly, or just shit goes south, they'll try to destroy you. They just wanted somebody to blame, you know. That said, FUCK YOU, NOBLE BITCHES I DO WHAT I WANT! NO TAKEBACKS!”

Nisha (Otherwise known to the Circle of Magi as “Turnip”)

“Fuck the Chantry sideways with a sword of 'Mercy'”

“Make absolutely sure the voices in your head are your friends before you listen to them.”

“It's a trap. What's a trap, you ask? Everything. Everything is a trap.”

“Sometimes, someone can't love you the way you want them to, and it's nobody's fault. You have to just accept whatever you can be to eachother.”

“People are complicated.”

Silvana Amell

“This is awkward... the people in power are rarely your friends.”

“Lies by omission are still lies.”

“Learn more combat spells.”

“You can learn to be happy anywhere, if you need to.”

“Family is who you decide it is.”

“Er, yes, well. Indeed. Eff the Chantry.”
