#bc 95% of the reason i even wanted to mod this game was to make a griffon bc they're cool and i wanted to see them

woe. giant variants of creatures be upon ye.

as shown in order Giant Griffon->Giant Fae Dragons->giant bicorn->giant chimera

also getting a giant variant is a new creature, the stymphalian bird:

(regular stymphalian bird)

(giant stymphalian bird)

also gave the warg a new adult sprite, that fits 1 tile to better fit it's size. but it's old 64x64 sprite was repurposed as another giant variant

(new adult warg)

(slightly altered old warg sprite, for the giant warg)

#modding #dwarf fortress #the giant griffon was funny too do and kinda trippy #bc 95% of the reason i even wanted to mod this game was to make a griffon bc they're cool and i wanted to see them #but it was the first sprite i did and you can tell bc it's not super detailed #so the giant one was kinda a do-over at making the same creature much more detailed #you cant actually make creatures spawn in both good/evil biomes AND savage biomes #so the giant fae dragon/bicorn/chimera wont be limited to good and evil biomes like before #but oh well #also while giant animals are technically the same animal as the regular one. you can make giant vers as different #as you want #so hence the chimera gaining a 2nd head and losing the horns on the main one #i mean i wrote the chimera to be necromancer experiments made of animal parts. so they just had more parts for it

yo! you reblogged the dragon age 101 so here's a few: 1, 3, 7 (why!!), 27, 31, 34, 40, 55, 61, 68, 73, 78, 79, 95, modified 97 as your 3 favs

Ohhh that’s a nice bunch of questions, thank you very much, sweet anon!

1. I loved Neverwinter Nights back in the day and played it all day all night for a very long time, and then someone (can't remember anymore who it was, tho) recommended DA to me by saying it's just like NWN but better. At first I didn't believe them, but here we are now. :D Haven't touched NWN even once since I got into DA.3. I don't know for sure, sry. I guess my first Origins playthrough was... in 2012, and then it took couple of years before I even realized there was a sequel. And my first Inquisition playthrough was straight when the game was published.7. This is so difficult, I love most of them so very much. Maybe I'd say Human noble origin, bc I've got so many Cousland headcanons. My canon Elissa Cousland was driven by vengeance for a while, but eventually she found peace (from the arms of a certain dark-haired rogue archer blessed with heavenly voice, if I may add!) I like to hc that she really loved Alistair during the Blight, but they grew more distant after they got married. I guess when things settled down a little after the Battle of Denerim, they both realized they didn’t even know each other that well, and they wanted different things from life. After her family was slaughtered she found a new, solid purpose for her life from the Grey Wardens and she wanted to stick with that, and she just didn’t fit anymore in her role as a lady of the court, noble origin or not. She left for Amaranthine and never came back to Denerim.27. Stroud. It's always Stroud. It just has to be Stroud. I'll be wondering forever how they didn't put there some other warden, who actually had more than a couple of minutes screen time before the Fade quest. 31. All of it. I've played them all, except the Darkspawn Chronicles, which just doesn't interest me that much, mut probably I'm gonna try that out eventually, when I’m at last desperate enough for new content.34. Mmmm, nearly every templar character ever? No, there are some particularly nasty ones, so let's just say... Ser Alrik for example creeps me out, just to say one.40. I gave the false wyvern heart to Vivienne, just bc she irritated me in my first playthrough. Even if the results are same regardless which heart you give, it was quite shitty thing to do. 55. Anders/Nathaniel. (Hahaha, basicly it's Anders/everyone, but...)61. A solid answer: Anders.68. No. I guess I'd like to, but to me it seems that cosplay community is all about absurd beauty standards. I've never witnessed an actual cosplay discussion without talking about how someone wants to lose weight to cosplay a particular character and such. It's all about the weight all the time, as far as I know. And I definitely know that by those standards I'm too fat and ugly to cosplay anything, so I just let it be and keep admiring cool cosplays from the distance.73. It varies, but atm I listen Dark Solas theme quite often. And the Sera song, it’s my ringtone.78. Mmmmh, difficult question. I really look forward to see Tevinter and how the society works there. And I really hope we get to see more of blood magic. A (romanceable) blood mage companion would be cool. Couple of nice cameos would be nice, too.    79. Yes, I've got hundreds screenshots taken from Origins, since I wanted to make some nice edits with my canon!Cousland. Still gonna do that some day. 95. Nicholas Boulton should be Garrett Hawke for very obvious reasons! I really don't know that many actors, so this is a bit tricky question to answer. But I'd stick with Nick, at least. :D97. THE ONE WHICH REMOVES THAT DAMNED LOOTING ANIMATION FROM DA:I!!1 And besides that I like the Grey Warden armor mod for Origins, it just makes the game much more immersive, and all the mods which makes Anders re-smoochable in DA2.
