Dragon Age?

[Lotrix Molick]

I'm interested as well.

[21308]

That's definitely a cool idea. My first thought was of am Alistair who survived by learning to use the darkspawn disease inside him to control them. I can try to GM it if people want, but I dont need to.

[Lotrix Molick]

I am not confident in GMing it.

[Shifter_Master]

A WILD LURK HAS APPEARED!

This interests me, I shall be watching it, I'm also willing to take up some Gm responsibilities if needed. Not my forte but i'll give it a shot if no one else want's it

[Lucius Cypher]

You have caught my interest. I've got a character concept I want to swing by you as well, since it's rather... Eccentric. I'll also take up GMing duties if you need someone who can keep an eye on here constantly.

[Revans Exile]

I mostly love the games. I could play. My personal opinion ignore 2.

[DAWNSTAR]

Don't worry about GMing anybody. I will take on that role after I write out the story.

[21308]

Yeah, me and Dawnstar are currently discussing how it will be written over pm. He wanted to GM and I don't plan on challenging him for the role, just so everyone knows.

[Too Old 4 This]

Just my 2 cents, but I would caution against multiple GMs unless we truly need them due to group size and game scope. You invite in multiple possible issues when you have multiGMs.

That's kinda silly. If the Horde isn't defeated than there is still an archdemon. Hey Horde this is Alistair, you know that kinda dopey Grey Warden who failed to defeat you, yeah I know your minds are bent under the control of an Ancient Corrupted God-Entity, but if you could follow my instructions instead that would be just swell.

Even the Architect and the Mother, those awakened darkspawn demi-gods from the sequel, could not gain influence until the Archdemon had fallen.

[Argetlam350]

My interest has been peaked by some degree, I'll keep my eye on this. Plus I have a character that I have been dying to use for a DA RP.

Oh, I must have forgotten about the part where the archdemon is the only one capable of having control while it's around. Alright, so we'll scrap that part. Maybe he just ends up taking in an unprecedented amount of the darkspawn taint, kind of like Ruck. Does the game ever say what would happen if a Grey Warden were to be put in a situation like that? I'm assuming they wouldn't just die or go insane, or at least not as quickly as or in the same way a normal person would.

[Lucius Cypher]

From my understanding, Grey Wardens are basically Ghoul's, but don't succumb to the taint as quickly. They do go insane after a long amount of time, if you're male. If you're female, you go Brood Mother instead. That's why they have to go through the Calling; so that they won't succumb to the taint before they lose their mind. Only certain Wardens managed to withstand the Taint for so long, and the only person I remember was able to do that was a Blood Mage, who used magic to extend his life.

If Alister survives the take over of Fereldan, either he'd do his own Calling (And thus be dead), or succumbed to the Taint and becomes a very powerful Vanguard for the Archdemon (And thus be our enemy). Or he could just be alive and still trying to defeat the Blight.

Additionally, since Alister is a Grey Warden, he's already immune to the Taint. Cause he already has it. He can't get anymore "Infected" at any given time, unless the RP takes place a few years after the Blight in Fereldan and he's like forty years old or so. Ruck went insane because he was just a normal dwarf who began to eat the darkspawn corpses and got infected by the taint that way. Grey Wardens need a special mixture to gain an immunity from the taint, which involves taking on a weaken version.

One of the DLC stories in DA 2 deals with a highly corrupted Warden. That one did essentially become like Ruck but he retained more of his intellectual faculties It took a powerful darkspawn to force him to succumb to the taint before his time. Normally they can resist it into their 40s or 50s so unless there is some corrupting influence, Alistair would be far too young.

[Shifter_Master]

Must have skipped over the Gm spot being picked up, good that we have someone willing thought I've never done it before and would like some more experience watching others in action still

[Lucius Cypher]

If GM's are already chosen, to whom do I message for my character?

[DAWNSTAR]

You can send it to me if you wish.

That is true but your idea of him even surviving was also not realistic because in the Darkspawn chronicles the Vanguard deals a fatal wound stabbing through Alistair's chest and piercing his heart and spinal column, thus killing him.

[RyuNoHime]

Wow this took off while I was gone.

So from what I'm understanding this story is basically what happened after Darkspawn Chronicles if Alistar survived the fall of Denerim. I guess after Ostagar and then Denerim he'd either become a suicidal crybaby or ruthless and vengeance driven. I'm guessing the latter.
