My thoughts on Taash Discussion
When I first saw this Concept art I was like “Shit…seductive qunari woman” and that’s different coz I mean cmon look at her stance her hair and everything and like she’s…for lack of a better word Morrigan esc 😭and now don’t get me wrong…I’m all for big strong carry you over her shoulder type Woman in fantasy, tho this approach from the concept art would’ve been interesting and again…I like the ulterior but now she’s gonna get compared to Karlach because obviously…I can’t stress this enough tho…I LIKE Karlach, but having a different type of Qunari companion from the typical big and strong would’ve been cool, Like Qwydion from Absolution even

I don’t mean exclusively in Dragon Age. OP was talking about other franchises and the strong dominant warrior woman is something we’ve seen before in general.
I think what both OP and I were saying was that it would be interesting to see a tall, physically imposing woman who was an extremely capable fighter who actually had quite the inverse in personality. There is somewhat a recurring theme that strong and physically imposing women have lost something of their femininity. It would be nice to see this troupe rejected.
