My attempt at a DAI version of HZD Vanasha left much to be desired. What I was going for: What I ended up with: For one, true black seems to be a mystery color,which I think I've noticed on other characters I've tried to make dark. That shade of brown eyes doesn't seem to be attainable. The complexion probably only possible with a mod. Couldn't seem to get the right length of face. bah! what do you think cmoe ? you play with mods a lot.

phoray I sent you a pm with a few shots of a DAI human using my favorite complexion mod. I don't think it's exactly what you are looking for but maybe someone here knows more than I do. I do think your character looks good though.

Thanks dragontartare and cmoe  She's certainly got "resting bitch face" down. I'll tweak her yet more before her first post after I wrangle how DAI mods work to mess with her complexion. I will probably be unsuccessful with a perfect match but I'm not aiming for perfection, just a face I can "live in" for the 6+ months the thread will probably take.

Okay. Done with my Character Bio. Feel like it's the shortest one I've written because other than the one event with her Patron, she had a quiet life. I need to research Tevinter a bit more to choose her political faction, but otherwise, done.

That's perfect! Since you have me going first, I was honestly kind of worried that you all were waiting on me  I spent the weekend working on a sewing project and still have quite a bit more to do, so this will give me the time to do that and then be ready to RP

I will take the liberty of posting whenever I like until you get to Tevinter. It may be one post, it may be more, depending on how long you take  I will finish my bio when I get home to my own place and my own laptop.

A.N. Even though all of us know only two wardens are going... even Cyryl doesn't know this at this point. So you guys' characters definitely don't know.

Unless you have different instructions than I do, the answer is no. Version #1 of my post included speaking to Cyryl, and apparently I wasn't supposed to do that, hence the rewrite

Thank you  I'm glad it worked. I've learned that humorous, sarcastic characters come more easily to me, so Magdelene's voice was tough to find.

I've learned that humorous, sarcastic characters come more easily to me, so Magdelene's voice was tough to find. I'm struggling with Kirsa. I tend to lean towards sarcastic as well and trying to write a serious, Warden-focused character is a challenge. Although this is only the second RP I've done, I hope it comes more naturally at some point.

Your post does NOT have to have the review with Cyryl in it. As I said in our PMs, you could start days before the meeting, or the night before, like Dragon's post. To me, an establishment post is supposed to represent a slice of who your character is and what motivates them before the mission is given to them. "The Review" was to formally talk about the characters history. So you could make your Warden sound super accomplished and an obvious good pick or even a more assuming quiet Warden who is more prone to teaching others than fighting Darkspawn. This way, you didn't have to write your character "thinking about themselves the last couple years." You had an NPC to bounce off of and establish a history of your character in story. But I don't think of these things as "directions" and "instructions." They were suggestions of potential opportunities you could take advantage of to make your characters stand out from the get go as individuals. Which I feel is important in a story that has more than one main character. I don't want people to think I'm handing out writing assignments and grading them.
