Welcome Real Dragon Age Fans!

Thanks for stopping by our little corner of the web. We are a small group of people initially brought together by our love of the Dragon Age video game franchise. This place was originally built in result of the original BSN’s forum closure. You will find our site may not be the biggest DA fan site out there but what we lack in quantity we make up in quality. Also, as you can see, we also have a lot of space for non-DA material as we are evolving into a more social site as well.

We have a close knit group of members here that are all thoughtful, respectful and mostly, a whole lot of fun.

If you join us you will notice we welcome new members with open arms and only ask that you treat everyone here as you yourself would like to be treated.

As we are a “mature” site all members must be over 18 years old. That being said, please note we have dedicated boards/threads dedicated to mature topics and material. We also would ask that even then, your posts should be as tasteful as possible and no hardcore pornography is allowed. If you have any questions please PM me before hand I will let you know!

Enjoy!

Hi Everyone!

Is Blood Magic really bad or is it just scary? Despite what some Shem would like me to say, I have never made it a secret that I am a Blood Mage and I make no apologies. I have seen people run from me at the mere idea of the notion but for those that know me I doubt you will find many who consider me scary.

Many say that Blood Magic is unnatural but if it is unnatural than why does it exist? Is it just not another form of Magic? It seems to me that most people feel Blood Magic is bad because it requires blood or rather the force of life within the blood. So therefore it must be bad? These same people who claim its evil due to the use of blood/life do so as they chew down on a big piece or bloody steak. Or in the next breath they justify the spilling of blood in some silly squabble over a piece of land or being slighted at the latest fete in Orlais. Does this not seem strange and unfair to anyone except me?

No, the real reason people are afraid of Blood Magic is the power it gives to the user. Human governments and the Chantry prohibit the use of Blood Magic not because it is inherently evil but because it’s something they cannot control. Like everything the Shems are afraid of it comes back to this issue. Can’t control the Elves, subjugate or kill them. Can’t control Mages, subjugate or kill them. The list goes on.

If the Chantry had spent the last 1000 years studying and perfecting the use of Blood Magic perhaps their epic failure at Kirkwall or the embarrassing bifurcation of the Templars from the Chantry could have been avoided. But no, they decided hide behind the skirts of their priests and demonise anything they couldn’t control and we all see how well that worked out.

Dareth Shiral!

Sera's Scribbles

Oh what a load of complete bloody shite! Blood magic is just misunderstood? Try telling that to all the dead people in Kirkwall! Try telling that to all the Templars that died in the Tower in Lake Calenhad!

Some emo, spooky, faffy Elf bird comes along and bats her eye lashes around for a few minutes and you all go knackered sideways! Blood magic is evil! Must I remind everyone what happened to spooky girl’s Keeper? Must I remind everyone what her and her mate Anders did to Kirkwall? Demons! Phhhtt… Blood magic kills PEOPLE! Get that yea? It KILLS people!

Look yea, I understand that Mages feel all “oppressed” and all but the truth is most people are already scared to death of them to start off with. Throw the daft Blood Mages into the mix and you will have panic. Magic is scary enough without worrying about it being used to boil our blood. Think about how it looks on our end. The only good Blood Mage is one full or arrows, yea? Get it?

So next time Moody Merrill comes along batting her eye lashes, quit being wankers and just ignore her.

*What a bunch of daft twats.* .

Olive: Happy almost weekend! But we probably won't see much of you with Anthem fresh out of the oven

Feb 21, 2019 10:23:40 GMT

Autumn Witch: Happy Thursday All! Feb 21, 2019 9:07:33 GMT

Olive: Well, that's not bad. Since most things I post there are either from tumblr, insta or twitter I suspect it could be a reaction gif I posted with one of them, will pay more attention to that in the future. Feb 19, 2019 19:48:57 GMT

Autumn Witch: Two one from above and one from below. Feb 19, 2019 19:41:08 GMT

Olive: Okay, how many are we talking about? Feb 19, 2019 19:36:39 GMT

Autumn Witch: I had to delete a few posts today from both of our celeb threads due to suspicious link issues. Make sure before posting any images you know the host is safe. Thanks Feb 19, 2019 19:29:40 GMT

Olive: This is a good day! Feb 19, 2019 19:24:08 GMT

Autumn Witch: The Instagram links should be fixed now Feb 19, 2019 19:19:00 GMT

GeneralXIV: Ive never had Stroud

Feb 19, 2019 18:56:28 GMT

Olive: I agree, though I had Stroud in most of my playthroughs, but these brief interactions don't really warrant the inclusion on such a chart. Feb 19, 2019 17:27:18 GMT

Vhenan Sequitur: My Hawkes met with Warden Alistair rather than Stroud, so he gets a "meh" on my chart. Including Gamlen on the chart would have made more sense IMHO. Feb 19, 2019 17:05:27 GMT

Olive: Ah, here's one thing I haven't heard, not even the wife felt it necessary to mention, or maybe she did and I jsut forgot

Thanks! Feb 19, 2019 9:45:38 GMT

Autumn Witch: I guess because Hawke deals with him in DAI as well Feb 19, 2019 9:43:10 GMT

Olive: I thought about him, but him being on the chart makes little sense to me tbh Feb 19, 2019 9:42:24 GMT

Autumn Witch: Stroud Feb 19, 2019 9:38:43 GMT

Olive: Still have no clue who that guy on the bottom of the DA2 chart, that someone added to the thread is supposed to be

Any ideas on that? Feb 19, 2019 9:30:54 GMT

Olive: Ah yes, of course, that's just cut out of her card on the war table, looked a bit strange at first cropped like that. Thanks. Feb 19, 2019 9:29:01 GMT

Autumn Witch: Josie to the left of Cole and Left of Viv is Morrigan Feb 19, 2019 9:21:00 GMT

Olive: Ah, that's possible! Thanks, Gen! Feb 19, 2019 9:18:39 GMT

Olive: And who is that on the DA2 chart between Izzy and Anders ? ? ? Feb 19, 2019 9:17:53 GMT
