Okay but because I am the bisexual disaster that I am...

Morrigan from DA:O has a motherfucking chokehold on me. Like istg shes super hot, she's intelligent, and by the end of the game she turns into a MILF!?

I looked at her for the first time and fell in love, I swear. How dare my bisexual heart have a crush on a straight woman >:(

Same goes for Varric too, I am in love with that man (or maybe it's his chest hair) I know I'm always going to be second to Bianca and I don't care :,(

The only reason Krem wasn't a LI is because BioWare is a fucking coward >:(

I was robbed of a t4t romance and my only consolation is fanfiction :,(

Bruh imagine being an elvish inquisitor like-

You get sent from your home to spy on some religious get-together, you survive a nuclear blast then get accused of terrorism and it makes sense cuz your dalish and aren't andrastian but you didn't do it, then you close a literal hole in the sky, saving the world, and then become the leader of a religious semi-rebellion and literally become the chosen of some god you don't believe just so, down the line, you learn that your whole religion was based on slavery and your super cool religious tattoo is actually slave markings and your mage bestie? he's actually the bad god from your religion and is immortal cuz he sleeps a lot.
