You've got me, 100%. I will make time for this. However, there's about 7 or so different characters in my mind right now. They're fighting a bloody battle to the death. It's quite gruesome. I'll let you know which one wins.

@AA: So very glad to hear it! Bloody battles to the death sound like the best way to pick characters.

@Child of the Winged: Hey-o. Normally, I wouldn't be against it, but unfortunately, that's the angle I went with for my character, and given their rarity, two somniari in a group this small is almost statistically impossible. Feel free to toss alternative ideas at me, however.

Also, just as a note, the Circles of Magi have been established, so it's going to be kind of difficult for non-Warden mages to move around freely, even the ones from Tevinter. We'll be trekking the continent over the course of our adventures, so keep that in mind if you should choose to make one.

A former slave character would be fine, but try to put enough of a spin on him or her to be sufficiently different from Fenris and also my character. I'd be hesitant with possessed people, but I suppose that depends on how you wanted to go about it. Do what you want to do for now, and if I think something ought to be changed or tweaked, I'll tell you. Does that sound fair? I'm just very eager to avoid characters that are too similar to ones from canon.

Tips: 0.00 INK Postby Child of the Winged on Wed Jul 04, 2012 7:41 pm

Possessed: My character would have gone through the Harrowing and asked the first demon, the one you're suppose to kill, for more power. She'd take the demon into her body and hid the fact she had it. She left the Circle to become a Warden, and took her demon with her.

Slave: She was a Tevinter slave that has potential to be a magister but her Master kept her from being what she could. She escaped when her Master was at a ball and left her behind. She ran to Rivain and began her life as a Mage

Edit: I'd rather have the Possessed one just cause she'd play with blood magics and the like. But the slave would be okay as well

Just a reminder, folks: please send me a writing sample of some kind after (or before) you submit your character to the tab. It can be a post from another RP or a piece of original fiction; all I ask is that it showcases what you consider to be your best work and represents the effort you'd be willing to put forth for this game.

Thanks!

Hi there!

An original Dragon Age RP, this is new! :)
I sent of a character sheet, I tried to make someone new and original, although they did end up being an archer from Starkhaven, I can honestly say, he is nothing like Sebastian.
So let me know what you think :)

Oh and where do you want me to post my writing sample, just here or somewhere specific?

Many thanks

Ah, hello, c.allen!

If you don't mind, I'd love to review your sample over PM. Once I have it, I'll also send notes regarding your character, just so everything is taken care of in one place, yeah?

Thanks for your interest; and fear not- I did say that Starkhaven was famous for having good archers! ^_^

So, from the start, I wanted to be a good-hearted bloodmage. I noticed in the rules section (it's kinda hard to miss if it's in bold letters and first, tagged with "Important Note:") that you would like something other than a mage.

If I can have my bloodmage, awesome! Otherwise, I was thinking of doing something completely opposite to that, like a Templar. Thing is, Templars are tanks, and I hate playing tanks. I'd rather be a rogueish thing then. So how about a Seeker? A Seeker-spy/assassin ?

So like something between an Shadow and Templar classwise.

Also, I'm a sucker for Dalish elves, so if I can be one, that'd be awesome. (An Elven seeker? WTF?)
