Episode #5.24 - Amaranthine - This Could Have Been An Email

We still haven’t quite gotten into the meat of the story, but we’re getting there! We’ve started clearing out the basement of darkspawn, found some nifty trinkets to give our friends, explored the city of Amaranthine, such as it is, opened up the way for the main quests, and dealt with some smugglers! Special thanks to Redd Spinks for our new amazing logo as well as to Radek Wade and Echoes of Oblivion for the song World of Thedas, which we use as our theme music. You can find the show on Twitte...

As always, the first day of the job goes to hell as we discover a sneak attack launched on the keep by darkspawn. They’re organized, they’re determined…and one of them can talk.

Episode #5.21 - Witch Hunt - Goodbye, My Friend

The Warden sets off to find her, whether to help an old friend or get revenge for a perceived slight is up to the player. Along the way we meet Ariane, a Dalish warrior who also hunts Morrigan, but to retrieve a stolen item, and Finn a mage who is interested in the elven artifacts called Eluvians.

It’s time for a solo mission! Sort of. The warden leaves behind their companions to return to the Deep Roads.

Episode #5.19 - Leliana’s Song - Sparkly Dirt Of My Heart

Before Leliana was a sister at the Chantry, she was a bard in Orlais, working for Marjolaine. This DLC is a glimpse into the moment that changed the course of Leliana’s life. With her friends Sketch and Tug, Leliana sets about to create chaos in Ferelden at Marjolaine’s request. What starts as a night of rowdy mischief-making in the name of Orlais turns serious when Leliana realizes one of Marjolaine’s tasks can result in treason and possibly death for all of them. But is that the end of the sto...

Episode #5.18 - The Darkspawn Chronicles

Now that our warden’s story is over–for the moment, at least–we turn our attention to another timeline, one in which our warden does not survive the joining and it falls to Alistair to end the Blight.

Episode #5.17 - Endgame - ENCHANTMENT!

Before we can take on the horde, Riordan has some important information for our wardens. Apparently the reason Grey Wardens are the only ones who can end a blight is because their darkspawn blood will draw the soul of the archdemon into the Warden’s body, destroying them both. Fun! Ultimately, one of our Wardens must die, it seems– except our swamp bestie Morrigan has a solution. Get the lady preggers and we all walk away free and clear. What to do, what to do? No matter what, we take to the str...

Episode #5.15 - The Alienage - It’s Honest Dirt

Thanks to an alliance with Anora, the Warden learns that there is UNREST IN THE ALIENAGE. I’m surprised anyone gives a shit but I guess you don’t want the dying screams of the systematically oppressed to drown out the voices of the nobility, right? The Warden & Crew visit the Alienage where elves are forced to live impoverished to find that Tevinter mages are present claiming that there is a plague that only they can cure– but some people are going into quarantine never to be seen again.
