Description I will spend every waking moment learning to make you happy


This is going to be a submission for Dragon Age Fan Week [link]

Right now they are having Tabris week and HOLY SHIT I AM SO GLAD BECAUSE IT ALMOST CAME DOWN TO SENESCHAL BRAN AND I WAS LIKE FUCKING NOPE!


I loved Nelaros. What a sweetheart.
.......i wish it could have lasted. Now my heart is all broken apart. U.U

I\'ll post the link later.
I\'m tired. :U Blegh. I actually did a lot of art tonight that I\'m not posting yet.

I hate this piece so much. You won\'t hear me say that often, but I really hate this one. I had second-thoughts about posting it, to be honest. ;__;

I think this is gorgeous, and I'm with you 100% about Nelaros. He was a sweetie and I was like 'Mmm, you I like' ^^ And then he gets killed. My Tabris ladies always wear that dang wedding ring all the way through the game(including DLC) in his honor.

SAME!

I was all defiant about it until I met Nelaros and I was like "YEP! You'll do! >:]"
And of course he died...

My first Tabris was already excited about getting married, so finding out her fiance was this sweet, handsome guy was just the icing on the cake for her. Then I tried to play one who hated the whole idea and was a real bitch about it to everyone... That lasted until she met Nelaros. xD

I have so many Nelaros feels. And it's Tabris fanweek on tumblr, so I'll be drawing more of them later. UwU

Oh fanart. My drug to numb the pain. *emo tears* T^T

In my Tabris' story, I imagine him surviving, like your betrothed does in the male version of the city elf origin. He survives the plague, the perge, the Tevinter slavers, and the blight and after Tabris defeats the blight (if she survives), they start a life together. At least that's how my imagination plays it out. He was seriously the perfect guy for Tabris. A blacksmith with a girl that plays with swords and daggers, a perfect match.

So true!!!XD

But I wound up pairing this mischevious little elf with Nathaniel Howe!<3

I hadn't really planned that, actually...
I was just playing through Awakening, and it hit me like a brick!

It's Tabris week on tumblr, so I will probably be making more TabrisxNelaros and TabrisxNathaniel and just plain ol' Tabris art a lot this week! Whenever I have some free time to procrastinate!

Eh...I like Soris...
but he was still a fucking coward

Nelaros was so...dreamy. What a waste!

vampiric-requiem In reply to toupele [2012-11-19 17:03:38 +0000 UTC]

So true so true. He meant well and he does join the resuce party so I guess with motivation and a good leader it counts xD

Nelaros would have been a great husband I think. x3

I think he's mainly forgotten about because he dies and everything after is more exciting and more..in your face. I guess.

We must remedy this somehow!

What a freaking sweetheart!

I held onto the ring. I was very sentimental about that!!

The worse part is that when you play a male city elf, the bride's family uses her dowry to bring her back to them.

toupele In reply to Spicy-Porcupine [2012-11-19 16:14:28 +0000 UTC]

WHAT!?

I didn't know about that!

City elf is literally the most tragic. That is really an opinion I don't feel like debating with anyone. There's just nothing, NOTHING that makes me more angry than that WHOLE clusterfuck.
It just pisses me off.

I'm such a sucker for that story, though!...>w<

Also, I guess i like video games where I'm oppressed?

sort of sick thing I like. U👍: 0 ⏩: 1

Spicy-Porcupine In reply to toupele [2012-11-20 21:40:34 +0000 UTC]

Well, I guess the reason they had such a sad city elf origin, is to get you to feel how the elves are treated and help you build a character for stories perhaps

It's true!
And I absolutely love this story.
But it's so tragic; I just wish I could somehow make it better! D:

I will clean it up later, probably on Wednesday!

I'm so unhappy with this. That doesn't usually happen with me; I am generally pretty narcissistic when it comes to my art and I love everything I make.
But this was kind of disappointing. >:T

I swear I will edit this when I have the time!

It looks so awful! Nelaros especially! I have never tried to draw him in profile before!

I apologize on behalf of my half-assed work. U_U
