Kintsugi Plays Dragon Age 2 (a winner is me!)

>I don't work with demons

Executive Dysfunction Demon, begone!

 

>I don't work with demons.

Well, that's not how I woulda put it, given my druthers, but all the same: fuck off, Headlamp.

YEAH LET'S HAVE IT MY Woh that means a fight huh


If a demon dies in the Fade and no one is around, does it leave a bloodstain?

Now I'm gonna GET THAT BOOK

(what follows is the functional equivalent of Sparrow repeatedly leaping to tackle the book and going through it as it stops being solid again. look, it has a really unintuitive hitbox ok)

GOTCHA



Now, back to this barrel puzzle... it's kind of a shuffly tower of hanoi type thing. Well, no, it's a slide puzzle really.

HaHA! Take that.

Now, this other barrel puzzle.. has three distinct colors.

Do I put them like this? Apparently not.

This? No.

How about thOH OK APPARENTLY YOU ONLY GET A CERTAIN NUMBER OF MOVES BEFORE DEMONS

what douchebag is setting up demon-based puzzle traps in the fade (I should have just read the wiki page)

 

Anyway, back to the quest at hand:

Is this gonna be an awkward Teen Discovering Sexuality thing, orrrr





Oh, that's not ideal.



...Cool, guess I'm Arianni now... Either I guessed wrong about the connotations of "desire" (spoiler: i did on purpose) or this is about to get hella Freudian.



Oh hey, it's Feynriel's scumbag dad.

>It's a demon.

 

>the father is..... a demon

 

and his wife a horse

 

>It's a demon.



Yeah, that's MY point.











HIS DAD, A HORSE NIPPLETASTIC DESIRE DEMON

(back to green-purple-red)
>_?

 

goddammit i can't tell if that's an actual oops or a "whoopsie daisy~" oops.

 

>Oops.

 

>Oops.
It's purple!Hawke, so I suspect "whoopsie daisy~".

Aaand yep. :D







Oh, come on, Isabela. Isn't she laying it on a little thick even for you?

(green, purple, combat)
>_?

 

>don't fall for it

Come on Isabela, you should know a con when you see it.

 

>I can't beat that.

 

I really question the competency of a desire demon that remains in an obviously-demonic form to make offers when it doesn't have to. Turn into something that people WANT to trust, not purple-glowing tiddy monster with horns. (But of course we can't have that, because then players wouldn't get to look at breasts. :::/// )

 

>Don't fall for it.


Yes, ok, but typically they don't, they just lie to people and put them in visions!







god


DAMN IT ISABELA

 

"siren's call two"

damn that name just makes how much of a trick it is more obvious

 

DAMMIT ISABELA

WHY DID YOU LOOK AT THIS PERSON AND DECIDE SHE LOOKED PERFECTLY TRUSTWORTHY

 

she was distracted by the titty

 

I was a little worried about fighting her because of that whole "a death in the fade makes you tranquil" thing (does that only apply to mages?)..

But then she just poofed anyway.


And then there were three.

Well, three and a rage demon



Why is the Fade just FULL of gigantic books?

Spoiler: Codex - Beyond the Veil: Spirits and Demons

It is challenging enough for the casual observer to tell the difference between the Fade and the creatures that live within it, let alone between one type of spirit and another. In truth, there is little that distinguishes them, even for the most astute mages. Since spirits are not physical entities and are therefore not restricted to recognizable forms (or even having a form at all), one can never tell for certain what is alive and what is merely part of the scenery. (It is therefore advisable for the inexperienced researcher to greet all objects he encounters.)

Typically, we misuse the term "spirit" to refer only to the benign, or at least less malevolent, creatures of the Fade, but in truth, all the denizens of the realm beyond the Veil are spirits. As the Chant of Light notes, everything within the Fade is a mimicry of our world. (A poor imitation, for the spirits do not remotely understand what they are copying. It is no surprise that much of the Fade appears like a manuscript translated from Tevinter into Orlesian and back again by drunken initiates.)

In general, spirits are not complex. Or, rather, they are not complex as we understand such things. Each one seizes upon a single facet of human experience: Rage, hunger, compassion, hope, etc. This one idea becomes their identity. We classify as demons those spirits who identify themselves with darker human emotions and ideas.

The most common and weakest form of demon one encounters in the Fade is the rage demon. They are much like perpetually boiling kettles, for they exist only to vent hatred, but rarely have an object to hate. Somewhat above these are the hunger demons, who do little but eat or attempt to eat everything they encounter, including other demons (this is rarely successful). Then there are the sloth demons. These are the first intelligent creatures one typically finds in the Fade. They are dangerous only on those rare occasions that they can be induced to get up and do harm. Desire demons are more clever, and far more powerful, using all forms of bribery to induce mortals into their realms: Wealth, love, vengeance, whatever lies closest to your heart. The most powerful demons yet encountered are the pride demons, perhaps because they, among all their kind, most resemble men.

--From Beyond the Veil: Spirits and Demons, by Enchanter Mirdromel.

Oh, my companions are vanishing again.

Who am I gonna be this time?

Orsino, ok, cool.
