Dragon Age: The Coming Blight

I feel that many of us are going to be dead, by the end of the first (ingame) week.

AHh, ok. It's that I was thinking on making a blood mage but I wasn't, still am not, sure if you'd accept that, would you?

The Wardens are known not to shy away from Mages, and in the past have recruited Blood mages into the order. If you ask Duncan about magic during the Mage origin, he see's blood magic more along the lines of 'Grey magic'. Which basically means, he knows it's considered terrible and evil, but so is the Darkspawn, and he only cares for one of them.

A Templar Warden? There is not a single way that could possibly go wrong, none what so ever.

Laufey you're also accepted, but you need to revise your age/history as if he's 23 then he would have been born 6 years after the rebels finally succeed in driving out the Orlesian occupational force.

Yeah, I knew I'd messed something up, if I changed his age. He was originally twenty-seven, but I changed it. I'll make a quick edit.

EDIT: Done,

Seems like one of the best character sheets I've ever seen, I can't imagine what you are like on a caffeine fuelled rush!

My CS's aren't really anything special at all, but I usually take my time, spending the better part of a day working on them. They also tend to be several thousand letters long, if I dedicate myself enough. The caffeine rush is just the drive I need to type tens of thousands of letters. I only spent about an hour or two on this.

Connect to your EA online account. If your Dragon Age account is up to date then they should have pics of your character one that if I remember rightly.

I was most unaware you could do that.

This is why I shouldn't make characters, unless I have at least a litre of caffeine in my system.

Alexander Thire

Appearance:
Name: Alexander Thire.
Race/Nationality: Human, Ferelden.
Age: Twenty-three.
Gender: Male.
Class: Dual-Wielding Warrior.

Personality:
Alexander is someone who atrives to make something great out of himself in life, but living in the shadow of his brother has left him with little chance of doing that. For this reason, he is resentful of those who expect others to do things for them, who abuse their positions as a lord, to do harm rather than good. He uses his limited influence within the Keep's grounds to help those who need it, whenever he can, always looking out for the underdog. He can be quick to judge people, and it's hard to shift his opinion on someone once his mind is made up,

He really isn't a man of many tastes, he loves his wife, and soon to be born child. But he is a very reserved man, who rarely opens up to anyone but his wife. By spending much of his time in court, regrettably by his fathers side, deciding on matter of the land, he sometimes finds it hard to sleep. Due to his fathers rather ruthless take on justice.

History:
Born only a few years after the Orlesian occupation of Ferelden, to a father who changed sides every other week,.it was by some stroke of amazing luck, that once the Rebels finally won, that Bann Tedryn, Alexander's father, some how wasn't hung for his actions and was instead more or less ignored. Even though he had openly supported the Orlesian forces on more than one occasion. Tedryn knew all too well that he was lucky to survive the war unscived, and as the father of three other children, he did everything within his power to secure his legacy. The son that would succeed him, wasn't to be Alex, but his eldest son, Morin Thire.

Instead Alex became his prize child, while Morin would go on to claim glory in battle, with the intention of redeeming the name of the family, Alex was instead to be wedded of, simply to secure more power via marriage. Alex, of course had other ideas, Ser Gwendel, one of his father's few Knights and Alex's second, began training him the finer arts of swordsmanship. Out of all the Knights that swore an oath to Tedryn, Gwendel was probably the only one to have a shred of honour left in them. When others just saw a child acting out of place, Ser Gwendel saw someone with potential.

Potential that a certain father needn't know about. Tedryn never openly said that his other children couldn't make their own in life, but it was all too clear that he wanted Morin, and Morin only to claim glory, while the rest of his children simply expanded the blood lines and the Bannorn's borders.

As the years went on, Alex naturally got older and Gwendel, being an older man himself eventually passed away. Out of all the people he knew, and his position effectively forced him to know all those people, Gwendel was the only one he truly considered to be a friend. It had been decided years ago, that upon his twentieth birthday, that he would be married to 'someone befitting his position, as the son of a Bann'. Tedryn was expecting for the daughter of an Arl, or even an Teynir, but fate was not in his favour, instead he was wedded to the daughter of Bann Hallis, while Alex might have considered her a woman he'd be content to spend the rest of his life with, Bann Tedryn was very much not.

But there was hardly anything he could do about it, the Bann of Sundown Hills was hardly in a position to be declaring an arranged marriage anul. For the next three years, he spent much of his life in the Thire's Keep, with his wife and his soon to be born child. And if the rumors of Morin's 'inadequacy' are true, a son who also happens to be the heir to the Sundown Hill's Bannorn. The prospect of out-doing his older brother, and actually having something go his own way is something that brings joy to a young man's heart.

The days dawns close that Bann Tedryn Thire is to hold his annual Glory Provings, a collection of warriors from the lands close, and sometimes far who come together and fight for glory, honour and of course the most important factor, Coin. Alexander plans on taking park in the Glory Provings, not to prove anything to his father, but to prove to himself that he can be something, even if a little bit of deception is required.

Weapons:
Alex own's a pair of decorated Longswords, supposedly made of Silverite, but most likely made from Steel. While it is Thirein tradition to go into battle with two swords, Alexander was not fully trained in that form, instead opting to use a smaller blade, if possible.

Armour:
Alex is the prize son of a Bann, it is for this reason that Alex doesn't have any armor he can consider his own. While he may have a set of armour for ceremonial purposes and such, it could hardly be considered actual armour. The armour is again, supposedly made from Silverite but looks strikingly similar to Steel heavy armour, only difference being the family's crest, an eagle, is engraved to the chest piece.

Skills:
Alexander is a fairly experienced swordsman, even able to wield two swords at a time, thought he is unblooded, and has yet to kill a man. His only victories coming from sparring matches with the Knight, Ser Gwelden.
As the son of a noble, and his Father's third in matters of the land, Alex has a keen ability to sway others to his way of thinking, though he no smooth tongue, someone set in there ways isn't going to be swayed by his honeyed words.
As someone to learn from past mistakes, for this reason he is sometimes noted as 'thinking ahead', placing certain elements in specific places. As much as his father doesn't want to admit it, his son had a keen mind for planning a battle.

I would not take code advice off this guy xPYou'll have to upload it to something like photo bucket then copy the url. When you start typing a message you can find the QQCode Cheatsheat below the 'submit post' button

I'd recommend Imgur.com over Photobucket, it's just better.

I just finished a playthrough of Origins, not an hour ago. You certainly have my interest.

Wouldn't be too surprised if Hounder introduces the Antagonist-to-be, once we've team up. When ever that gets around to happening.

I think someone of that calibur might be a little outside of our current scope - I feel like we're going for kind of a "Watchmen"-esque vibe, with (mostly) regular people using street-level abilities to battle against a governmental juggernaut.Having a city-leveler like Iron Man or a cosmic-leveler like Green Lantern in the mix would drastically put them outside of the fight, much in the same way that Doctor Manhattan has little to contribute to the story except as a catalyst.

Well, for an Iron Man type character, it could be that the armour was made by Atomic Industries, and this being a comic-like universe, such a thing could indeed exist. But I do get your point.
