What did you do today in DA? [Spoilers]

Anders. I won.

Had another Confession Thread inspired poking, this time involving DAO with a mod and Loghain. Good times. Also poked a bit in connection to the n00b thread. Twisted my hands they did. Yessir. Found out that dwarves have a fondness for tools and that Hrotti has a scarecrow fetish. But the egg. Why. The whip I get, the fish worship I kinda get, but the egg is just wrong.
Also found myself pondering if I should finish Sigurd's run. Had kind of given up on him, but he's a good sport and didn't complain about being constantly surprised in increasingly horrifying ways. 

Then loaded up the Inquisition for a bit. Had some fun with the dwarf from the last session and still dig her looks. Just did the usual stuff, killing wolves, mages and templars, gathering herbs and closing rifts. I do wish they added the tinting table to Haven as well, but I guess there has to be some reason to get to Skyhold.

Then back to DAO and loaded up Wuxia. Feats of the day (was supposed to be shorter, but then it wasn't and now you must suffer):
Tried to recruit Dwynn the dwarf. But he died. Oops.
Found a shifty human boy in a closet. When asking about him being there, he ran off all flustered. Boys...
Found a saucy book in his attic, note to self, do not make out with demons.
...Is Alistair a demon?
Tried getting Owen to repair the militia stuff. But he died. Oops. But found his stache of weapons.
Sten you bloomin' hypocrite. All who are able should fight, but you wanted to leave. Pish posh.
Maker said I was not ready to fight for Redcliffe so he crashed my game. Bastard.
The Maker was right, I'm not ready for this.
By the Bronto's buttocks, the oil trap was actually helpful.
Sadly there were none around the church, so the militia is dead. Oops.
Props to Lloyd who almost survived, but not quite.
Tossed some money into the river, and by river I mean women, and by tossing I mean gave. Morrigan disapproves -9001.
Infiltrated the castle, killed corpses and rescued Maidens. Or well, Maiden, there was only one in the basement.
Ser Perth and crew kicked that Revenant into space.
Let Jowan out and told him to go do whatever, only Morrigan approved +1. (Or well, 7)
Looted the castle, if you were me, you'd do it too. Don't lie to yourself.
What do you do with a possessed Connor, what do you do with a possessed Connor, what do you do with a possessed Connor so late in the evening?
Nothing for now, did go upstairs and chat to him. Told him he'd see the Maker, he would not be coddled and killing him would hurt. Going to let him sleep on it while I decide what to do. But either way, somebody is going to die. And it aint going to be me.

Finding Nathaniel

Anders and I just went to Aveline, for some rumours, when a black haired lady stopped us. She asked us to find her brother, a Warden, Nathaniel Howe.
When Anders heard his name, exhilarated, I not really remember, when he was such enthusiastic recently... Was something between them? And why this bothers me? Anders tells they were together in Amaranthine, just usual warden things... okay, let's go for him, Anders perhaps would kill me, if I refuse that.

But the Deep Roads' not that funny place, so, probably we need some help. I called Fenris and Aveline.
As Nathaniel's sister said, we followed our old path of the expedition, through some Darkspawn, and found Howe.

Should I be jealous? Rather let's go! We found Nathaniel, this was the task. We're done here...

..as I imagined. But Nathaniel had another plan, his crew missed, he doesn't want to come without them. Of course, let's go to save people!

Aveline doesn't like the idea to protect „foolish” Wardens „from themselves”.

A dwarf, named Temmerin Glavonak, from the Vigil's Keep, helped us with his explosive. He said a little farther, maybe there are survivors.

Other groups of Darkspawn, and... Carver?! Thanks to the Maker we didn't leave! Did he thank me? Who are you? Did you eat my brother? Or the Taint ate his brain...

Now, we're done here. Okay, new target: The Hanged Man!

(To be continued.)

Wasn't today but I just remembered the time when a bunch of identical cats spawned in Denerim at once and sprinted from one end of the market to another and back. Made the trip worthwhile.







Also this. The captain didn't even question an elven "soldier" randomly appearing in his ranks. Such a fair, open-minded fellow!

If you create your warden in the toolset, why don't you just edit the bits your not happy with and continue?

Aw, this is sweet.

Somethings I just don't notice (again, usually the nose - which is probably why it gives me the most trouble) until the character turns their head just so in a cutscene. 

There's a thing that lets you change your Warden's face in the middle of the game. Saved my game many times. You have to make a new character with your desired look for your current character, then just use the program to slap the new face onto your hero.

Y'all are keen. Thanks!
