A fan comic depicting my headcanon on why Kieran and the Hero of Ferelden won't be around for Veilguard's events.

I cannot help feeling like the tendency to see Inquisition!Leliana in stark contrast to Origins!Leliana has led to some people forgetting what... Leliana is actually like in Origins.

In fairness, as in all Dragon Age games some very revealing character moments happen in party banter which makes it easy to miss. But the gentle-hearted mystic who desires only to draw others unto the love of the Maker has never been all that Leliana is, and it's always been in direct conflict with the side of her that is not only adept at intrigue and yes, violence, but enjoys those things. This is the central conflict of her whole character, and it's not a trivial conflict, because there is not one simple answer to who Leliana truly is. She is both of these things. She is deeply religious and finds comfort in her faith, and thinks it should bring comfort to others as well. She's also prone to gossip and pettiness and all the qualities that helped her thrive as a bard.

There's this one particularly revealing piece of banter with Alistair if the Warden is in a romance with Morrigan:

Sometimes I want to bring Morrigan but then I remember I play as a face-tanking rogue and I bring Wynne. Warden Cousland, Morrigan, Wynne / Dragon Age Origins (c) Bioware

The second attempt!! I think I’m over all much happier with this piece now 🥰 I know it makes for a very busy illustration, but I really enjoy all the colors and textures :D

For those that didn’t see the debacle in my instagram stories, I polled my followers with a WIP of this illustration to see how many liked this mosaic version better than the frame I’ve been doing with this series, and most people did! For those who did prefer the frame, I’m very sorry, but I will be moving forward with this new version 🥲 if anyone is devastated about this, I could potentially do a special print run of the originals once my shop is finished being set up, but future pieces in this series will be in the new mosaic style 🥰

(Also, at some point, I will absolutely be doing a second Morrigan portrait with her Veilgaurd design because it’s gorgeous!!)

Kinda a collection of dragon age art, I've got such a backlog of these I need to post 😂😫

(The leliana one is different quality cause its before I somewhat changed my artstyle)

There were few times when Morrigan could read Black Grimoire without Vidalenos interrupting her

It was nice to see you my dear, but it looks like the time is short.

just Morrigan, admiring her magic

past few months had been truly magical for me, I'm glad I took the time off from posting online to focus on everything that appeared in my life during this year. not sure if I will be fully coming back soon, but I felt like I want to close the year with art, and so this idea came to my mind - our favourite witch, creating lots of tiny magical wisps around her, just because she can

hope you'll have a wonderful holiday time and a happy new year,

best of wishes,

Em
