You Know I Love Lancer And All That But My Heart Belongs To Ars Magica. Possibly The Best Ttrpg Of All

you know I love lancer and all that but my heart belongs to ars magica. possibly the best ttrpg of all time, or at least one of the most ttrpgs of all time. it's a game of weird medieval wizards and requires multiple spreadsheets to play. one of the sourcebooks is a crash course on medieval philosophy and medicine with some mechanics thrown in. you specifically cannot cast spells at the moon.

my gender is bad porn parodies of horror movies

I've recently been thinking about what kind of Exalts the Dragon Age Origins companions would be, so I decided to make a post about it. (And yes, this is inspired by the recent Dungeon Meshi/Exalted posts)

Alistair was hard for me to pin down, but he kind of gives me Fire Aspect Dragon Blooded vibes. Obviously a Lost Egg/Outcaste because of his backstory, but also because his ass is absolutely not built for Dynast high society.

Morrigan is absolutely a No Moon Lunar. She's a shapeshifting sorcerer who grew up outside of "civilized" society and is into magic deemed forbidden; very strong Lunar vibes.

Leliana is definitely a Night Caste Solar, girl was/is a spy and is an idealist who is absolutely dedicated to trying to make the world a better place. Classic Night Caste material.

Zevran is a Wood Aspect Dragon Blood. He's an assassin who enjoys the thrill of the kill, sex, and the other pleasures of life. Also an Outcaste like Alistair.

Sten gave me a bit of trouble at first, but then I realized that he's absolutely an Earth Aspect Dragon Blooded. A mostly stoic warrior who clings to the traditions of his people and believes those ways are the best.

Wynne, with all her tales and attempts at guidance, gives me Adamant Caste Alchemical Vibes.

Oghren is gross, and I hate him, so he doesn't get to be an Exalt.

Shale was impossible for me to pin down tbh, so I'm gonna be lazy and say that she would be an Exigent of some sort. Probably chosen by the God of Pigeon Killing.

Loghain is 100% an Azimuth Caste Infernal. He's a victim of war, suffering atrocities at the hands of the Orlesians occupying his homeland, who later helped free Fereldan from Orlais, and then later let his understandable hatred of Orlais blind him and ended up becoming a tyrant himself. (Though he would also make a good Dawn Caste Solar.)

Honestly, Loghain is a pretty good example of how an Infernal can be a hero and later a villain imo.

Hopefully, this post finds anyone else who is both a fan of Exalted and Dragon Age.

Begging for white dungeon meshi fans to learn what a micro aggression is. I enjoy Laois as a character, but he clearly acted in an arrogant and orientalist/racist manner towards Toshiro on multiple occasions, like I honestly can't even blame Toshiro for disliking Laois.

you cant be saying that White Baby.

me when I wake up at six am for my five hour shift and my boss begs me to stay for nine hours instead

Exalted doodles from a little while ago - had a fancy party so everyone got a dance with Emerald (except the zenith caste who was busy going into limit break and causing problems on purpose) 🦚🌙
