6-8 of essentials and the protagonist specific questions for cait!
Essentials:
6. Do they have a preferred weapon they always use?
daggers! my girl is made of knives. she's always carrying at least four more knives than you can see on her, and trying to disarm her can become absolutely comical
she learns how to fight with a sword and shield after being a Warden for a few years, and I like the idea of her eventually switching classes to warrior, but I don't think she'd ever stop being a knife lady.
7. How do they dress in their downtime, while fighting, in formal settings, etc.?
answered here!
8. Do they have any notable scars, markings, tattoos, etc.?
answered here!
Protagonist-Specific Questions for DA: Origins:
under the cut because it got a bit long 😅
1. What was your Warden’s origin like? What happened and how did it affect them?
she's a Cousland, so her origin was... bad. she was really close to all of her family, and Duncan had to literally drag her away from Highever to prevent her from dying with them
she dealt with her grief by being very angry at everything. I tend to compare her to a wildfire in Origins, burning herself out and trying to take everyone else with her. she was angry, and bitter, and had a bit of a death wish but somehow kept surviving everything thrown at her
2. How did they feel about being recruited into the Grey Wardens? What were Ostagar and the Korcari Wilds like for them?
bitter! Cait didn't have any illusions about her recruitment. Duncan didn't "save" her, he just offered her a different way to die
her memories of Ostagar are dark, but she has trouble differentiating if that's because of what happened there or the circumstances that brought her there. she wanted to wallow in her grief, or just blindly throw herself into a fight she couldn't win, but Duncan kept finding chores and errands she needed to do instead... (much, much later, she recognizes what he was trying to do, and appreciates it. he saved her life in more ways than one)
3. What did they think of King Cailan and Duncan? How did they react to their deaths?
she wasn't feeling especially charitable at the time, so she thought Cailan was an idiot and Duncan was a busybody who should've just left her alone
later, she understands Duncan better, why he made the choices he did and what he was trying to do for her, and she comes to appreciate and respect him (far too late)
but her opinion of Cailan remains... uncharitable. she thinks Cailan was naive, and overly cocky. he should've listened to Loghain, or Duncan, or both. he didn't see the big picture and was more concerned with his own personal glory and what was happening in the moment, and that got him and a lot of other people killed
4. How bad are their nightmares as a Warden? What do they think of the Calling?
she has nightmares almost every night, but they aren't all due to being a Warden. she just has a lot of Trauma. she's lucky, at least, that she doesn't often remember her dreams, she just frequently wakes up terrified in the middle of the night
Cait thinks the Calling is stupid and unnecessary. Wardens have known about the side effects of the Joining for centuries, they haven't figured out a way around it? why make recruits undergo the Joining at all, unless there's a Blight? why keep everything a secret?
between the Architect's experiments that freed some darkspawn from the Archdemon's call, and Avernus surviving centuries without losing his mind to the Calling, and with Corypheus creating a false Calling, Cait is determined to find a cure for the taint and save herself and the people she loves from ever having to take that walk
5. What did they think of Flemeth?
answered here!
6. What did they name their Mabari?
his name is Byron! I originally picked this name because I thought Caitie would want to give her dog a fancy name because he's nobility just as much as she is
but then I learned that there's actually a Byron Howe who fought alongside Maric and Loghain in the rebellion, so I decided that she just really likes war stories and named him after a hero (not realizing that she would grow up to be friends with Loghain and also with one of Byron's descendants)
7. Did they do much in Lothering, or pass right through? How did they feel about its destruction?
she did all the quests because I'm a completionist, but also because she wanted to help people as much as she could. she feels terrible that she wasn't able to do more, and that most if not all of those people died anyway. just another thing to feel guilty about
8. How does your Warden feel about Loghain painting the Wardens as traitors?
honestly, she would've done the same in his shoes. it's a smart play. she uses it to her advantage when she can, and tries to ignore it when she can't.
otherwise, she's not really bothered by it; she knows the truth of it, and she knows Loghain, paranoid as he is, is terrified of the day his lies come to light. she forges that into another weapon that she eventually turns against him
9. At the Circle, did they side with Cullen or save the mages?
saved the mages. killing a bunch of people because a couple of them might, someday, be demons? absolutely not
10. What was their nightmare in the Fade during Broken Circle?
answered here!
11. What do they think about Andraste’s ashes and the cult? Do they keep any of the ashes after healing Arl Eamon?
cults are crazy and do crazy things ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ she thought Haven was creepy, but the cult itself didn't bother her so much.
the ashes themselves, and the gauntlet to get to them, were another story. they gave her... not a crisis of faith, exactly, but something like it. she found the whole thing very moving, and inspiring
but she didn't keep any of the ashes after healing Eamon. it felt disrespectful to carry around a piece of a dead woman, no matter how important or powerful said dead woman was
12. How did they react to seeing a loved one at the Temple of Sacred Ashes?
that was the first time she cried about her family's murders. she broke down completely, and begged her father's ghost for forgiveness
13. Did they help protect Redcliffe? What happened to Connor? How did they deal with Jowan?
she didn't hesitate to help protect Redcliffe, and managed to get through it without losing anyone.
in her canons that have her as the only Warden, she brings in the mages to save Conner and I think convinced Morrigan to go into the Fade. and she tried to convince Jowan to leave and save himself, but he stayed to try and help
in her canon where Carah Amell is there too, Carah's the one that goes into the Fade, and Carah convinces Jowan to travel with them because they're besties
14. How did they resolve the conflict in the Brecilian Forest? Did they side with the werewolves, the elves, or did they reach a truce?
Cait talked the werewolves and elves into compromising, everyone lives happily ever after. except the Lady of the Forest and Zathrian, I guess
15. Who rules Orzammar, Bhelen or Harrowmont? How did your Warden make their decision?
answered here!
16. Did they support Caridin or Branka in the Deep Roads? What happened to the Anvil?
she supported Caridan, and destroyed the Anvil. the mistakes of the past don't need to be repeated
17. What did they think of Anora? How did they feel about her betraying them?
answered here!
18. If they were captured, did the Warden and Alistair escape on their own, or did someone help rescue them?
I've done it both ways, but I think in my canon versions I always have the others rescue them. because shenanigans
19. What was the outcome of the Landsmeet? Whose claim for the throne did they support and why?
Cait won the debate, and then she dueled and ultimately defeated Loghain. in 2 out of her 3 "canons", she convinces Anora and Alistair to get married, and recruits Loghain into the Wardens. in her 3rd canon, Anora rules alone and she recruits Loghain
20. How did they deal with Loghain?
answered here!
21. Did your Warden survive the events of the Fifth Blight? Did someone make the ultimate sacrifice, or was Morrigan’s ritual performed?
Cait convinced Loghain (somehow, she still has no idea how) to perform the ritual with Morrigan, so none of the Wardens died killing the Archdemon. except poor Riordan
22. If your Warden survived, did they continue to serve the Grey Wardens? What is their life like after the Blight?
she continued to serve the Grey Wardens until the events of Inquisition. in the canon where she and Carah are both recruited, Carah becomes Warden-Commander and Cait is her second in command and eventually promoted to Warden-Constable. in canons where she's the only one, she becomes Warden-Commander
in the time between Awakening and Inquisition, her life is pretty quiet actually. she trains new recruits, she helps Anora keep the nobility in line, she probably gets married (when varies wildly depending on which canon we're talking about), and she starts researched a cure for the taint and the Calling
23. If your Warden survived and remained a Warden, what boon did they ask of the new ruler of Ferelden?
she becomes Chancellor to the Queen (or King and Queen, depending), though I do sometimes wish I'd had her made Teyrna of Gwaren (even though she has zero interest in more titles thank you) because of the potential for shenanigans
24. What gifts would raise their approval rating if they were a companion?
I feel like her big plot-specific gift would be a dagger of some time. one with the Cousland crest on it, maybe? or a copy of The Ballad of Cathain, which is the story about the warrior woman she was named after
for more general gifts... knives, and more knives, and also any of the maps that are technically Loghain-gifts
25. How did your Warden resolve Warden’s Keep? Stone Prisoner? The Golems of Amgarrak?
answered here!
26. What happened at the end of Witch Hunt? Did your Warden allow Morrigan to go through the Eluvian?
she let Morrigan leave. she only undertook the hunt for her because she wanted to make sure her friend was okay. though she is disappointed she didn't get to meet Kieran (until much, much later, post-Inquisition)
27. Did the warden you used for Awakening kill the Architect or spare him? What happened to Amaranthine and Vigil’s Keep?
she ultimately ended up sparing him, though she still isn't sure if it was the right decision
Amaranthine and Vigil's Keep both survived the battle fairly unscathed. the Keep was reinforced and rebuilt to within an inch of its life, and she and her team went to Amaranthine to protect it

Bennett & Cafaro Wichblade - July 2024
Los Angeles, California - April 18, 2024 - Top Cow is reimagining the hit supernatural thriller series Witchblade. The new series, coming July 2024, will be penned by NYT Best-Selling Marguerite Bennett (Animosity, Batwoman, DC Bombshells) and visualized by artist Giuseppe Cafaro (Suicide Squad, Power Rangers, Red Sonja). The creative duo is working with original co-creator Marc Silvestri, who is the CEO of Top Cow Productions Inc. and one of the founders of Image Comics. Together, they will reintroduce the series to Witchblade’s die-hard fans with a reimagined origin with contemporary takes on familiar characters and new story arcs that will hook new readers and rekindle the energy and excitement that fueled the 90’s Image Revolution that shaped generations of top creators.
Marguerite Bennett, who has been focused on writing for the upcoming Butterfly TV Series and Ark: The Animated Series, says, “The ability to tell a ferocious story full of monsters, sexuality, vision, and history was irresistible.” She adds, “Our saga is sleek, vicious, ferocious, and has a lot to say about power in the 21st century and will be the first time that we are stopping the roller coaster to let more people on. I’ve loved Witchblade since I was a child, and there is truly no other heroine like Sara with such an iconic legacy and such a rich, brutal relationship to her own body.”
In Witchblade #1, New York City Police Detective Sara Pezzini's life was forever fractured by her father's murder. Cold, cunning, and hellbent on revenge, Sara now stalks a vicious criminal cabal beneath the city, where an ancient power collides and transforms her into something wild, magnificent, and beyond her darkest imaginings. How will Sara use this ancient power, or will she be consumed by it?
Through last year’s Witchblade Complete Collection Kickstarter, the world received a glimpse of Marc Silvestri’s WitchbladeArmor redesign. But, a whole new universe has been created by Giuseppe Cafaro, who states, “The Witchblade universe is being modernized to reflect how Marguerite beautifully explores the extreme sides of Sara through memories, her personal thoughts, like desire and hunger, in her solitude and when she is possessed by the Witchblade. So, I had to visually intersect a noir True Detective-like world with a supernatural, horror world that is a fantastic mix between Berserk and Zodiac!”
Marc Silvestri notes, “This is brand new mythology around Sara, and I can’t wait for you to fall in love with her and all the twists and turns. Discover Witchblade reimagined this summer, and join us as we bring all the fun of the 90s to the modern age and see how exciting comics can be. I can’t wait for you to read this new series.”
Witchblade #1 will be available at comic book shops on Wednesday, July 17th, for $4.99 for 48 pages. The Final Order Cutoff deadline for comic shop retailers is Monday, June 24th, 2024.

After mostly stopping watching TV shows or anime around 2008-10, I finally found myself enjoying it again!
What I‘ve watched so far:
- The Boys
- Gen V
- Gossip Girl (original show) though I could only make it to the third season. Couldn‘t handle it.
- Invincible
- Witchblade (anime)
It‘s an odd mix.
Interestingly, Invincible made me re-discover my interest in comics!!

Its pride so.. Aspec headcanons?
I'm not sure if you are referring to asexual or aromatic so I'll give both.
I think the witchblade (It's like a supernatual AI type of device) would make each of it's bearer's sexual preferences it's own not necessarily because it likes pleasing them but because it wants them to be the best warrior possible and knowing what might distract or allure them would be beneficial in keeping them in check. The witchblade doesn't really like sex or intimacy but likes being close and understanding it's host inside out.
For a more human asexual I think Orel Puppington from Moral Orel would never derive pleasure from a sexual experience itself but rather from pleasing his partner and the feel of making his partner happy. I get the feel he'd never be physical with them unless they explicitly asked and if given the choice would much rather just snuggle while watching TV. He most defiantly wants kids some day though but doesn't care if they are biological or adopted.
Schmendrick from The Last Unicorn feels very Aromantic to me, I should mention this is a movie only interpretation since I haven't read the book yet. He, just like the unicorn have no experience in this emotion and thus can not understand or comprehend it. When Schmendrick turns the unicorn into a human I like to think he gives his ability to experience romance to her, thus implying while he can't feel it himself he can inspire the emotion in others.

My top 3 Animators
Here’s a detailed research of these animators:
1.
Pendleton Ward
Ward Taylor Pendleton Johnston, known professionally as Pendleton Ward, or simply Pen Ward, is the creator of Adventure Time and the original Animated short, as well as a production designer for Steven Universe. Pendleton Ward currently works for Cartoon Network Studios and Frederator Studios. He was born on September 23, 1982, and grew up in San Antonio, Texas.
In 2002/2003, Pendleton Ward published a webcomic titled Bueno the Bear. He later took down the comics because he thought they were "terrible."[3] However, he retains the name "buenothebear" for his website and his handle on sites like Twitter. Later, Pen created a short for Frederator Studios titled "Barrista" starring Bueno the Bear.
Pen continued to work on short animations for Frederator's Random! Cartoons which aired on Nicktoons. There, he worked with several people who later join him on the Adventure Time series, including composer Casey James Basichis, Adam Muto and Niki Yang. His two shorts were "The Bravest Warriors" and the "Adventure Time" animated short. The "Adventure Time" short was made in 2006 and went on to become an internet phenomenon in 2007, with over 1,000,000 views by November of that year.[4] (Internet searches seem to indicate it first went viral in mid-January 2007, although the original versions of the video on YouTube have since been removed.) Pen pitched Adventure Time as a full series in 2006 or 2007 to Nickelodeon, however, they passed it up for Fanboy & Chum Chum, a CGI animated Television series. It took some time until Cartoon Network decided to pick up the show, which, some fans believe, was better then the show being in the hands of Nickelodeon.
In 2008, Pendleton Ward worked on Cartoon Network's The Marvelous Misadventures of Flapjack (along with JG Quintel, creator of Regular Show) as a writer and storyboard artist. Flapjack was a storyboard-driven show, meaning that the storyboard artists also wrote the episodes, based on an outline. The experience inspired Pen to run Adventure Time the same way, once it was picked up as a series.
Pen became interested in animation at an early age, inspired by his mother, Bettie Ward, who was an artist and worked with animators. He started drawing flipbooks in first grade.
At the Adventure Time panel at San Diego Comic-Con 2011, Matt Groening, creator of The Simpsons and Futurama, made a surprise appearance, telling a story about Pendleton's childhood. His mother brought him to visit his house to get advice on how to be an animator. However, he couldn't remember what advice he had given to him.
Pen attended CalArts, where he became friends with JG Quintel. (They later worked on Flapjack together, and in 2009, Quintel went on to create Regular Show). At a "Producers Show" at CalArts, Pen met Eric Homer from Frederator Studios, which was his first lead in working with Frederator.

Jonathan Djob Nkondo
He was born in Paris in 1987 and grew up in the suburbs, drawing loads since he was a kid. He was really inspired by cartoons like Dragon Ball Z, Mighty Max, Patlabor, Inspector Gadget, Ulysses 31, the Warner Bros ones and video games like Zelda, TMNT and Mario Bros.
But at some point, his parents decided they wanted him and his siblings to watch less TV, so they got rid of it. There was not much to do and entertain himself with, which led him to start reading a lot of books and comics.
He used to go to the library a lot and copy/draw over those drawings, trying to understand the techniques behind them. He was more curious about characters in general, and one day he just decided to create his own, along with his own stories for them.
But yeah, he read a lot of comics — and very diverse ones. Loads of Belgian ones: the famous ones like TinTin, Spirou, Les 4 As (The 4 Aces), Bone… A lot of mangas as well and, later on, during college, he found out about the American comics like Spider Man, Xmen, Gen 13, Witchblade, Spawn, etc.
He is a big fan of Katsuhiro Otomo. Akira is the first manga heread when he was a kid. He was too young at the time to fully understand the story behind it, but his style blew his mind. He just recently bought the 6 volume set (like 2 years ago) and he’s still impressed by the drawings.
But the story and message have now became more important to him. He thinks the three most impactful mangas he read when he was kid were Akira, Gunnm from Yukito Kishiro and Gon from Masashi Tanaka.
On the “dreamy” comment: well, a lot of my ideas are actually coming from dreams I have.
It’s definitely happened that I dreamt about something and then illustrated it afterwards. I tend to be very conscious when I’m dreaming (sort of lucid dreaming), and I think it’s a good source of inspiration. Often times I feel stuck with an idea or get a hint of a path that could be interesting to develop, so I usually keep that in mind and I kind of unlock those during my sleep.

Yoneyama Mai
Mai worked at TRIGGER, an anime production company that is highly regarded both in Japan and abroad. There, she was in charge of the animation director for “Kill la Kill” and the character design for “Kiznaiver” and other aspects of the works, and she emerged as a force to be reckoned with. In the 2019 Japanese massive hit animated film “PROMARE”, having played a central role in visual development and other aspects of the work, she has a definite presence in the animation and illustration industry.
Mai has also been remarkably active as an illustrator, such as working on the main visual for the EVANGELION fashion brand “RADIO EVA”. And she held a solo exhibition “SHE” in 2019 and a solo exhibition “EGO” in 2021, her activities as an artist gain momentum.
Her works are characterised by the depiction that you can feel the flow of emotions and movements, which is the result of the fusion of a broad and deep sensibility that includes not only Japanese but also Asian elements, and an expressive ability to convey situations backed by the outstanding skills of an outstanding animator.
“For me, drawing animation is an act that reminds me of the preciousness of the moment. I like the state that is created by extending the moment of a single frame, preparing many of them, and establishing a flow of movement by moving them back and forth, so that all the moments are interacting with each other, so I made it into my work.”

DVD Review Update 11/14: Witchblade 2001-2002 First Look
So here it is, as promised once we wrap up disc 1 of POWERS 2015, we dive right into the live action version of Witchblade. The one with Yancy Butler as Sara Pez Pezzini aka the Witchblade. So let’s see… This is from Warner Brothers/Top Cow, and released on TNT for two years. Now this should, for all intents and purposes, be as close to canon as allowable on TV. Because it stars the character of…

Nominations Queries (Part 3)
Please keep your nominations coming at the AO3. We have some additional questions about nominations: AFLW (RPF) Australian rules football women’s league (2017-): Nominator, we would call this an umbrella fandom - an individual sports fandom would need to specify either a single team or an event. Would you rather call this AFLW (RPF) Australian rules football women’s league (2017-) [UMBRELLA] or pick a specific team? Eureka (TV): Nominator, do you mean Eureka the USA 2006 TV show, Eureka the 1980s British educational series, Eureka TV a 2001 British children's science show, Eureka! the 1980s Canadian educational series, or Eureka! the 2022 American educational series? IT Crowd: Nominator, do you mean the UK or US version of The IT Crowd? Witchblade (TV): Nominator, do you mean Witchblade the US tv show from 2001 or Witchblade the Japanese tv show from 2006? ทฤษฎีสีชมพู | GAP the Series (TV): As far as we can tell, this hasn't aired yet and won't air until November, which would be too late for us to count it as available (we would need at least one episode to air before October 30th). Is this available somewhere? If not, has the air date changed? Summerland (2020): Nominator, do you mean Summerland (UK, Gemma Arterton) or Summerland (US, Maddie Phillips)? chronicles of narnia (pbs): Nominator, is this a nomination for the BBC 1988 version? Or is there a separate version that aired on PBS that we can't find? We also have a question about a franchise: Re-Animator: We have two nominations for the Re-Animator series. One is "Re-Animator (Movie Series)" and the other is "Re-Animator (Movies - Combs)." When I looked this up, I couldn't figure out if there was a difference between these two nominations. Are they different? If they describe the same films, which wording should be used?
