I found my sketch pad and pencil set.  There is only one direction that can take.

Ainulindale has written a thoughtful guide to the Qun based on Plato's Republic, and we should all be grateful. :D

Good evening the_sten members! As most of you have probably heard, there is new DLC out today for Dragon Age II. And, word through the grapevine is that there might be some content in it that would be relevant to our Qunari interests. I personally have not had a chance to play it yet, but I thought that it might be nice to get some discussion going on it regardless. Maybe liven things up a bit around here, yes?

So, who's played it? Give us your thoughts, questions, concerns, topics of debate, please. We wants 'em!

(And yes, I fully expect there to be spoilers within here folks, consider yourself warned.)

Rating: MA, for porn.
Character(s): M!Hawke, the Arishok, Isabela, Varric.

Hi all. Thanks to the machinations(?) of artists like Aimo and Coelasquid, and the curiosity of a late fandom bloomer, I am currently head over heels for DA:O. It took some hours to get the hang out of pausing every round to select moves and such, but I'm having great fun even as the game crushes my little party over and over again.

And of course, there is Sten. Big, snarky, deadpan Sten. Both his banter and conversations make me grin like a wee child. Jumping through all those hoops to earn his truth was worth it. (And there is the Qunari prayerbook. It's helping me with my poultice habit. *cough*)

With that said, I look forward to mooning over our favourite Qunari together with everyone—and I bring offerings of fanfic!

Title: The Twenty-Eighth Day
Date: 29/04/2011
Fandom: DA:O
Characters: Unspecified!Warden, a dash of Alistair, Morrigan, and Leliana, and lots of Sten.
Genre: Drama
Rating/Warnings: T for the violent way things tend to die in Ferelden.
Summary: An imagining of what might happen if Sten is left unrecruited, and the Qunari's last days as Lothering falls to the Blight.

( "I will be back," the Warden says, and is off with his three companions. He does not come back...Collapse )
