    A nice and slightly chilling tale with some humourus moments.

    And another bump.

    I'd appreciate it if anyone actually interested in Dragon Age would contribute to this thread - by review or just by voting on it.

    It's very technically sound but there's no character in it. You could replace any of the characters with original characters and it wouldn't change a bit for the most part. This relies heavily on the characterization given to Loghain in the game and even then nothing is explained. 3/5

    I would have to agree with Poytin; it's not bad, but it is lacking that certain special something that would actually make it a good story. In addition to what Poytin already said on Logain's character, the Grey Warden basically comes off as Generic Dwarf #527, and that's just not good enough for a story like this.
