Description
Woot more Dragon Age fan art!Taken, word-for-word (save the thought bubble), from a potential conversation you can have with Leliana if you're romancing her. If you get her up to 100 approval, she'll proposition your character to join her in tent, only, as always, she takes a more subtle approach.
It's fun to turn her subtlety on its head. Makes me giggle every time. I had to draw this after it happened to my mage in-game. In addition to being amusing, however, it was also completely in my mage's character to not get the hint: he's about as virginal/oblivious as Alistair.
Leliana doesn't look great in most of this comic, but ah well.
EDIT: For those of you curious, I recorded the scene this comic comes from (including my mage character, Legam). You can see it here .
EDIT 2: Damn, this is getting popular (by my fan art standards, at least).
Makes me wish it was better drawn... Bah.

In the game for me, or in my little stories/art with them?

It depends on several factors - hardened or not, dark ritual or not, sacrifice or not, what you do afterwards.
For my plays the above mage, I didn't harden Leliana, had Alistair do the dark ritual, survived killing the archdemon and chose to rebuild the Grey Wardens. In that instance, Leliana stuck with my mage to help.

(Dunno if you mean dude/bro neutrally as some people do, but just in case to clarify: I'm a girl)
Thanks. My other DA art is better than this comic, though. Got better at drawing them after I did it.

Your character is *SO* cute!!! I played a virginal sort of maid too... that didn't end as well romancing Alistair. This is far cuter.

Ha ha, thanks. He's my favorite Warden - I've beaten the game with him three times now.

I like your point of view, and I like that you let your characters drive the decisions, instead of the other way around. I find way too many gamers out there who are just playing proxies of themselves, which is satisfying for themselves, but boring to others.

Why thank you.

My sentiments exactly! It's nice to meet someone else who is into creating characters and not just playing versions of their idealized selves.

Well, I'm a recent BFA graduate and my ideal job is to be a concept artist for games/cartoons - specifically character creation. So I take it pretty seriously.
Also: Perfect characters are boring. I like making the "wrong" (not necessarily "evil" or "bad") choice in games sometimes; people are flawed, and I try to reflect that. Sometimes my characters get snippy or act too rashly if emotions are heated.

I alternate between playing difference genders. I also try to let the environment shape the concept of who or what my character will be. For Dragon Age, I came up with a different slogan for every character, and shouted a lot of nonsensical battle cries at my tv while I was at it. ^___^

I sometimes play females to change things up, but I find most games I prefer playing males. The only exceptions are KOTOR2 (where I preferred being a female) and Mass Effect (where I liked each Shepard about equal; male Shepard still a bit more, but I think Jennifer Hale's excellent voice acting made me like playing as femShep more than I would normally)

Are you familiar with using IRC? Some of us have created a channel and "hang out" there. NetiCora's post here explains how to get one: [link] I usually just use the IceChat client. Maybe I will see you in person?!

I appreciate the invitation, however, I unfortunately have a no-chatrooms policy, even if it's full of people I know; I'm always doing something else when I talk to people online (usually comic/commission/website/etc work), and I find chatrooms too distracting to get enough work done. I do, however, manage to handle IMing only one or two people while I work just fine. If you have AIM (preferably) or MSN, you can get me on that.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
LoL. Fair enough! I've had that problem with chatrooms myself. Can I at least tempt you to the biowarefangirls LJ Comm [link] then? Oh, and I'm InverseReality when I'm on AIM, btw.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Didn't know that existed! I'll take a look (I also have a Leliana fan comm on LJ - makers_breath ; if you or anyone else is interested in that, feel free to join/share - we could use more activity, heh!)
I'm hollychan5 - I'll have to add you to my unblocked list on AIM. One of the reasons I can handle the IM is because only people I allow to IM can; everyone else is blocked by default. No spams or IMs from old exes annoying you, ha!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Oh, are you the one running makers_breath? Neato. Can't say that I'm a huge Leliana fan -- I like her well enough, but haven't felt the need to do anything about it. But if you guys are open to random lurkers. XD
So, ok, cool! I'll IM you sometime.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yup, that would be me. Got one other person helping maintain it, but I created it. Doesn't require a lot of maintenance right now, though - pretty slow there. Most everybody's focusing on Alistair or Mass Effect coming out next month.
Lurkers are perfectly fine.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Okay, lurking then! I'm in California. We're about... 3 hours behind, I think.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yup, 3 hours. I've got some friends of friends in Oregon, so I'm used to figuring out that time difference.

Hahaha! Loving the body and face expressions there too.
