Nope, it's fine. After all, if you didn't get me a little excited this would be a waste of time. I RP so that I can feel my partners emotions, not just mine. Otherwise i'd just write alone. :p

@oOWonderkinOo Loving the description of the dome. That last post came out a bit longer than expected. I guess you got me a little excited too.

As the king spoke Alexander resisted the urge to laugh at all of them. This task would prove impossible to many, since they thought that most forms of energy were not physical. Though it was true that a rock could be stopped by a barrier but fire might not, if the barrier truly stopped all physical attacks then fire would be no more effective. A barrier of that size and power though, Alexander couldn't help but wonder who had created it and why? He shook his head slightly. Not having seen it or tested it, there was no point in getting all worked up. All these questions and more could be answered upon arrival and no sooner. A position he didn't want, though the title never hurt. The roar that filled the hall irked him. All of these mages were like children still, unable to contain their excitement around others. Another proof they would fail. The ability to control one's emotions was directly linked to their ability to control magic. He briefly considered using magic to travel to the temple and beginning his study, but reconsidered. Even if he did so it would tire him, and so many others would do the same. They would see his magic, though many would fail to understand the complex castings from the southern isles. A few may have studied it and may be able to interpret his runes though, and that could cause problems. Better to arrive late and see their progress. Walking to the temple took some time, and the temperate air blew through his robes unencumbered. The runes stopped the chill and the extreme heat, but this air was not warm compared to his native land. It felt nice. Alexander could tell by the road he traveled on that this land had not suffered, it was wealthy too. He wondered during his travel how a land could grow large and wealthy without developing a system as they had. A good question for a book he might write. Thoughts of writing and ruling disappeared as he saw the barrier. Powerful indeed. This dome felt to him as if it had been placed on this temple from above by a God or something else. But Alexander shook that depressing thought, there were plenty of ways an entity could manage something like this that didn't require them all to fail and possibly get obliterated. As he grew closer and closer he couldn't help but hear the dismay as many realized the difficulty of the task at hand. So many would leave on the first day, some without trying, some without failing. Time would tell. Finally the mass was close to the wall. Being rather late compared to many, Alexander noted that many elementalists cast their magics on the wall to no effect. The dome seemed to absorb their power. It made sense, if some lesser being had created the barrier and used physical energy to power it they could maintain it easily. Or they could have some sort of trap set up to use all that energy it gathered. Caution, not fear, would be his motive. After all, he was mortal. Alexander had almost given up watching when suddenly a wizard stepped up from the group that had been watching. His aura was alive like a fire, though it was not tangible yet. Looking at the aura instead of just feeling it he saw it for what it was. An actual fire, reaching almost ten feet in height. This wizard was far stronger than those who wasted their power first. Alexander couldn't wait to see how the barrier reacted to so much power. The air sizzled and the area seemed to heat up as the wizard ignited his aura, making it into a tangible fire and giving him incredible power, if temporarily. A streak of white fire flew and hit the wall, it's reverberations actually sending blue lightning sparks across the dome. Alexander smiled, studying the wall with his eyes that could see. The wizard launched an entire wave of this fire, almost twenty-five feet in width, at the barrier as his aura disappeared. It was like watching lightning in a storm dance across the clouds. In the end though, the barrier stood with no damage done. If anything it glowed with more power. The elementalist of power no longer had even the average mage's aura. Shaking his head at the foolish waste Alexander returned his attention to the dome. All that energy was good, it lit up the membrane and allowed them to see the actual sections of the dome that held it up and projected energy. This thing was not paper thin. It was thick enough that they could not see the temple beyond. Deciding not to test the dome while it was so strong Alexander walked around looking for somewhere to make camp. Though it was only lunchtime he had no doubt that the dome would not be normal today, and he wanted to have a decent meal before writing out possible theories and magical tests to verify them. Once he isolated a theory or eliminated a majority Alexander would consider a solution, or rather, a way inside. Even if he knew the exact composition of this dome and had the power to tear it down, doing so from the outside was wasteful. It's weakness was, without a doubt,inside. So inside he would go. Opening a small tear would still not be easily done. Drawing a summoning circle on the ground, Alexander summoned his tent. The circle lit up with energy before disappearing and poof, there was his tent. Inside it was larger than it looked, thanks to enchantments he had cast when the tent was made. It had a queen sized bed, a bookshelf, a small table and a place for him to cook. It was fairly difficult to enchant something and mark it for summoning at the same time. Usually they interfered with each other. Quite a bit of work had gone into his tent. After making a stew he sat out in front of his tent and stared at the mages that panicked and yelled at each other as they attempted to figure out what to do about the dome before them.

Ok. Sorry about that.

The city of Lorelei felt empty to Alexander. Compared to his home city Erumai, where walking down the street was like swimming through hundreds at almost any time of day, anyway. There was less people on the street than what was usual though, because many where at the castle or heading to the castle to see the gathered spellcasters. Pulling his hood up to keep out the chill Alexander made his way to the castle that loomed up before him. Despite his feelings it was not a small city, in fact Lorelei was far larger than the other cities in the area. As he found himself coming closer and closer to the castle he felt more eyes passing over him. Alexander knew what they were saying. He was a sight to see in his thin cloak he had brought from the southern isles. Covered in runes from his homeland it was all he needed to keep the cold away, so he had never bought any of the thicker clothing up here. No, everything he wore underneath the cloak was silk-good summer cloathing. Gathered before the castle were a large number of lesser beings. They attempted to awe people with their meager power, or somehow convince the guard that they too should be let in and hear the kings challenge. After the announcement, though many would try to keep it to themselves, rumors will spread like wildfire and many of these weaklings would attempt to follow. If this challenge was anything like he hoped it to be, Alexander knew that they would die, as would many of the stronger witches and wizards that were here. The path to the double doors opened up before him as if he was some daemon. The small displays of magic were stopped and all eyes followed the strangley cloaked man from afar. "Lord Alexander, Magus Primus of Erumai, Wizard of the Southern Isles!" The guard yelled as he opened the doors. It had taken him several tries to say the whole thing correctly and only then had Alexander let the guard announce him. On each side of the corridor there were many witches and wizards here. These ones had more power to them than those outside and the their auras made the room sound like it had a large fireplace. Alexander almost smiled to himself, he kept control of his aura and made himself seem powerless-as was the practice of all Wizards of the Southern Isles. A rare title, with only 13 living claiming it at any one time, it was awarded on experience and skill more often than power, though every few generations a Magus would claim the title through sheer power. "It is an honor to have someone from the southern isles offer help, Alexander d'Erumai. I must say that I am a little suprised and incredibly happy." Alexander smiled and inclined his head to the king. He was here for himself and did not represent the Southern isles, though the king knew that. "I am glad to help." After pulling his hood down he faced the masses and scanned over them, attempting to look each of them in the eyes. Gasps echoed throughout as they saw his eyes-demon eyes. He had moved off to the side, though many stared at him still. There was one other that had seemed to be alone by the court. She was wearing a pretty gown that was ruined by the black feathers that trailed down it. The effect was enough to intimidate the many though. Or was there something more to her, that so many would fear her? Alexander smiled as he stood next to her. The talk of the hall was no longer centered on the task at hand, which was annoying as he had no idea what it was. Alexander had not paid any attention to the rumors, knowing that the King himself would tell them the problem.

I'll put them in a hider everytime, just for convenience. Would you mind starting?

Don't know much about dragon age, sorry. I'm sure that whatever you have in mind will be fine though. I think we should start at the palace and move from there to the temple. Do you want to post first? Also, I hope you don't mind, I'll be throwing pictures in every once in a while for various uses.
