Are there any plans to make any toys a bit smaller than small? My small Uldred is amazing, but unfortunately if I try to take the knot, the tip becomes very acquainted with my cervix. The usable part for me is still absolutely amazing though!

Fantastic question! I'll kick this one up the chain to Ryan and see what we can get working! We often have a lot of requests to go bigger, so getting an ask like this is super helpful evidence that shop customers are looking for smaller toys too :)

I agree that we dont have much in the way of small toys or like vaginismus friendly toys, and we're really looking to change that! Uldred has been noted, but if anyone has any ideas or requests, we're always looking to improve! ^^

A hypothetical god tier for Uldred from Dragon Age: the Mage of Rage.

A Mage of Rage is among those who explore faith in possibility. They are motivated by themselves to know defiance. (x) The Mage of Rage has trouble forgiving their own mistakes and hates complacency. (x) They are the Genius Revolutionary, defined by introspection and defiance. (x) Their opposite is the Seer of Hope. Their inverse is the Heir of Hope. They share their personality with the Bard of Mind. The Mage of Rage would quest on a planet similar to the Land of Thought and Rage, reigned over by Ares (God of War). They would rise to ascension on the wings of imps. (x)(x)(x)

It's nearly 4 am, I haven't been able to sleep, and I'm an evil, evil person:

So what if Inky and Co find some sort of artifact and bring it back to Skyhold. After fiddling with it for a bit, it activates. Some sort of magic happens after Inky & friends discover an inscription saying something about summoning monsters, along with a spell that Inky unthinkingly recites.

A very realistic projection appears, of a man wearing Circle robes. A mage. He's not particularly impressive looking, being maybe slightly older and completely bald. There is an air of arrogance around him though. His expression is strangely off-putting too, although no one can quite say why.

No one knows who he is or how he's connected to the artifact.

Then there's an odd choking noise by the doorway. It's Cullen.

Cullen looks completely caught off guard and horrified- no, it's worse than that. He's completely frozen, looking at the projection in terror. His mouth falls open, but nothing comes out. Color drains out of Cullen's face at an alarming rate.

Maybe he falls to his knees. Maybe he collapses completely. Maybe he manages to choke out a few barely whispered pleas to leave him alone, that he can be good, that he'll do whatever that man tells him, to kill him, to spare him. Maybe he's shaking. Maybe he begins reciting the Chant. Maybe he's taking a very abrupt trip down memory lane and his mind isn't in Skyhold anymore.

Whatever his reaction is, it's freaking his friends out.

His eyes are completely focused on the projection before them and nothing can tear them away. No, that's not right. It's not that Cullen can't look away. He doesn't dare look away, even when the man's image flickers and disappears- artifact now momentarily depleted of its magic.

And what do you know? That little inscription was right. It did summon a monster after all.

#Cullen's gonna have a nasty ptsd moment #and he'll no longer feel safe in Skyhold #but I like to think that he'll be able to get past it with help from friends #(once they understand what happened) #and ofc the magically healing love from Alistair xD #cullen rutherford #dragon age #uldred

I’m back on my bullshit (extremely niche Dragon Age fics)

...as the title says, this is Uldred's Harrowing.

When the templars had taken him from the apprentice quarters they had seen fit to blindfold him even in the dark. It would be laughable if it wasn't such an indignity - what good would a blindfold do in disguising the number of staircases he was being escorted up. It didn't take a genius to work out they were at the top of the tower - in the Harrowing Chambre.

aside from everything else about durgewyll I am loving how it highlights wyll and gortash as narrative foils. both their upbringings lead them to interact with demoniac entities, both can only become archdukes and join baldurian high society through uldred, both are swaying the dark urge from simply following bhaal (and arguably the dark urge sways them from simply pursuing an ideal and the dark urge can recognise both as their equal)

and by playing your card right in act 3 wyll just...gets everything gortash was trying to get? wyll really is a hero saving baldur's gate from the legion of the absolute. wyll influences gortash's favourite assassin into becoming someone they can defeat the netehrbrain together. they can even become archdukes together! ...or they can turn it down and then they can go to he hells to sneak around and have adventures (like gortash and durge used to) and save karlach's life (the same life that is at risk because gortash mindlessly threw it away).

like. it's a lot, wyll and durge can even murder raphael.

#bg3 #something something mirrors something something #wyll ravengard #enver gortash #this is not critical of gortash btw love whatever the fuck he has going on #also their upbringing...like yeah gortash obviously was sold to a devil by his parents that is not great #but also wyll indirectly has absorbed from uldred's teachings that his life does not matter as much as the greater good or the right ideals #and that is good but also wrong #i don't have the right words now to elaborate on all of that #throwing this in the void hoping that someone smarter than me gets inspired to elaborate on this #thsi was brought to sceleritas telling durge to never consider anyone else his equal and remembering that gortash always did #bg3 durge #durgewyll #bg3 spoileres #durge spoilers #EDIT: someone pointed out in the tags that gortash doesn't really want to he a hero and yeah but didn't really know how to write it out

[copdog1234]

Why did it never occur to me that he was shortening 'Wyll' like how 'Will' is usually shortened? And that the longer version of his name with this spelling is extremely funny. If the bg3 wiki is to be trust anyway.

No wonder he shortens it 💀💀💀

#im laughing so hard rn #i love ya wyll but you poor soul #of course a man named uldred would have poor naming skills #i know hes named after his grandpa too so lole this is just how the Ravengards are #bad with names #bg3 #baldur's gate #baldurs gate 3 #baldurs gate #baldur's gate 3 #wyll ravengard #bg3 wyll #wyllyam ravengard

don't have the energy to draw the otp dynamic meme but there's something about 'beast/hunter' ships that makes me go bonkers.

I am the end of your line you are the freedom I chase your teeth have sought my flesh my blade has touched your heart we live inside each other and each craves what other takes for granted I will never let you be but you will haunt my dreams I am my own beast you are your own hunter we are the anthem to each other's wilderness we are both prey and predator we will consume each other endlessly until not even our bones remain. that shit fucks.

[massgrav]

I’ve known a man like you – a little older, maybe. You never believed in him, never acknowledged him, always treated him with scorn and disdain. How does it feel, my poor boy ; to be utterly powerless, now that tables have turned? Today, he walks free. You, however, will never know true freedom again.

uldred just slamming his hand down repeatedly on the trigger ignatius button.

#lichen is gaming. #insect mention / #dissociation / #// this quest was such a bad time for him. #// he needs a talking to when they leave the tower. #// 1. he tears into morrigan at the start if she's present. #// 2. he's dissociating while uldred's talking to him because he's fairly certain that he knows that demon in particular. #// the demons used to whisper that larva thing to him when he first started having nightmares about them at six years old. #// (that's in his canon. it's something that i decided when he was conceived.) #// one was louder than the others. he would not have been shocked if uldred had referred to him by name and had asked him how he's been #// and maybe that's a common thing for demons to say. #// maybe it's ridiculous for him to think that he's familiar with whatever's possessed uldred. #// but the memories are there and it makes him feel ill.

It's interesting to note how the Tabris Origin, which involves a wedding, kidnapping and attempted sexual harassment, and fighting your way through an estate full of guards, is the Origin where gender plays a huge role in what story you experience. M!Tabris will always storm the castle coming to the rescue of his cousin and his betrothed, while F!Tabris will always have to fight her way out because the men in her life can't fully protect her (Nelaros dies, Soris literally hands her the sword, Cyrion is powerless to stop the abduction. Okay, this may be a little unfair to Soris who does fight side by side with Tabris and counsels caution the same way regardless of Tabris's gender). I'd go so far as to say that Tabris is the only Origin where the gender of your PC has a definite impact on the story.

TLDR to the rant in the tags: Tabris is constrained on all sides by being an elf, by their gender, in part by their family, and by society at large (both the Alienage and the wider city).

#bumble our guys are occupying my mind again. the origin defines their roles and experiences so #a lot has been said about the superficial equality of men and women in dragon age: they are equal from a legal point of view #both can become soldiers inherit or assume a position of political and social authority #but that's pretty much it #that experiment aside i think for the tabris story it's interesting. tabris is so contrained #don't go out of the alienage at night. don't anger the shem #don't carry weapons. don't insult them. live in squalor & misery with no hopes of social mobility. get married to a person you don't know #this happens to you because you are an elf. and this happens to you because you are playing as a man or a woman #the other origin where gendered violence might crop up is brosca and idk to what extent bc i haven't had much contact with f!brosca's story #but it would be just like beraht to make weird comments. aeducan gets a weird comment by trian too but that's it #but the alienage is a pressure cooker and the violence dealt unto its inhabitants has a perverse amount of nuance #unlike the circle which is another pressure cooker but a different one the alienage has a better life and more opportunities paraded in #*front of its inhabitants at every waking hour. the mages don't have that jarring contrast (they are reminded of how bad they have it in #*other ways but violence is much easier to normalize in closed communities. there is a reason uldred was able to stoke a rebellion after #*having been at ostagar. one taste of fresh air and that stuffy tower must've been hell awaiting. even wynne takes ger first chance to gtfo #the alienage however knows with striking clarity what it doesn't have. and that hurts. that stings. this ramble went way off track #but my main point is that tabris is constrained on all sides while at the same time having a better life dangled in front of their nose #*every single waking hour. no wonder their origin ends in massacre at their hands #the dam has broken loose. the water is finally cooking over and the pressure cooker explodes #tabris has a body count comparable to that of a seasoned criminal (brosca) and of a knight defending their invaded home (cousland) #which is freaking impressive if you ask me #dragon age #dao #dragon age origins #tabris #warden tabris #f!tabris #m!tabris #astala tabris

Oh so when Templars force mages to fight a demon with no warning it’s “just a routine harrowing.” but when I do it it’s “stop summoning demons Uldred. you’ve become an abomination Uldred. why are you trying to take over the tower from Irving?”
