I was a little prejudice against Nathaniel Howe when I first met him in Awakening cause, well, his dad was just such an asshole. But my characters do not kill potential companions, even Cousland was not going to execute the son of the man who killed her parents. Nathaniel was in the Free Marches during the events of Origins. It becomes clear as the Warden progresses through Awakening that Nathaniel really did not know what kind of man his father was. In many ways, as I played as Cousland, I felt like Nathaniel and I were kindred spirits. We were both fighting for the memory of our families. He and Anders quickly became regular companions. I also really enjoyed his cameo in DA2. I’m not sure if he will really have a large role in the future games, but I hope so!
Happy Nathaniel Howe Thursday!

Nathaniel Howe Quotes of the Day:
“Look, I don’t know what happened to the Couslands. But from what I hear, it was horrible. The entire war was. But what my father did shouldn’t harm my entire family.”
“Those…those, er…tentacles. They can’t get to us up here, can they?”
“I take you are an admirer, Oghren?”
“I think you’re a lovely woman, and due some respect. So I call you a lady.”
Happy Nathaniel Howe Thursday!
We are back to Dragon Age this week, starting off with the mage some people hate to love, other love to hate, or hate to hate, or love to love… It’s just always complicated when it comes to Anders… or really Justice.
Happy Anders Tuesday!

Anders Quotes of the Day:
“Be a real pet! Ignore me until you want something then sit on my head.”
“That’s a strange place to store a pitchfork…”
“This place is a death trap! If I have to go into the bushes to answer nature’s call, you’re coming with me!”
“It’s like you’re trapped in your own body, seeing out your eyes, while someone else moves you like a puppet.And you’re trying to scream, to move a single muscle, but there’s no escape. Until you look down at the blood on your hands…”
Happy Anders Tuesday!
Justice - by mizuk0
“Since when is Justice happy? Justice is righteous. Justice is hard.”
This is how the schedule usually goes:
Sunday - Sebastian, The Illusive Man
Monday - Merrill, Cullen, Flemeth, Tali
Tuesday - Anders, Thane, Wrex
Wednesday - Aveline, Fenris, Leliana, Kasumi, Kaidan
Thursday - Zevran, Isabela, Ser Pounce-a-lot, Joker
Friday - Alistair, Garrus
Saturday - King Cailain, Varric, Mordin
I have plans for Zaeed and Saren already, but if you don’t see your favorite on this list, please let me know :)
Side Note: I am only doing these for NPCs - Not the Warden, Hawke, or Shepard. Sorry! I love them, but just wanted to give some of the spotlight to the NPCs.
Taking a break from the promiscuous duo that is Isabela and Zevran, to devote a day to everyone’s favorite kitty knight, Ser Pounce-a-lot. This kitty truly is a “noble beast” - using the words of Anders. Fearless, cute, and able to remain in small spaces, such a satchels, for long periods of time, Ser Pounce-a-lot is not to be taken lightly.
SPOILERS! DO NOT READ IF YOU HAVE NOT FINISHED DRAGON AGE II. I think it could be argued that if the wardens had not taken Ser Pounce-a-lot away from Anders, the events at the end of the game might not have happened ;) This is what happens when you separate a mage from their cat. Be warned, Templars… SPOILERS END HERE.
Happy Ser Pounce-a-lot Thursday! Meow!

Ser Pounce-A-Lot Quote of the Day:
(Meow!) :)
Quotes about Ser Pounce-A-Lot:
Anders: You know, mages created mabari hounds. Maybe I could make you just as smart as those stupid dogs.
Anders: Shall I train you to become a vicious attack kitten? (Snarls)
Merrill: Ser Pounce-a-lot… who knighted him? Did he have a little sword, or just his claws? I bet he had a dashing cap with a feather in it!
Happy Ser Pounce-A-Lot Thursday!
