Hello, network. I am Leliana, for all the new people here and those that do not remember.

One of my favorite preoccupations is storytelling. That is, listening to stories and telling them. I've been wondering...

A lot of us come from different places, yes? Different places mean different cultures, and to get to my point, different stories. I don't know if there is a collection of some sort, or if this has been asked before, but I want to listen to fables, myths or legends of all sorts from your homelands, if you will indulge me. That way, I can spread these marvelous stories in my travels if/when I get back to Thedas.

If you're more of the listening sort, I will be more than happy to relay stories from where I came from.

Okay, okay, so you've got a pretty good voice, I'll give you that. Now try addin' something a little more exciting to the whole thing.

[songofvalor]

Hm... if I go for anything more exciting than that, seeing that my voice is my weapon, I might wind up killing somebody. [ She laughs. ]

[ganking]

Wait, seriously? What, do you scream super loud or something?

I sing. I can stun opponents and make my allies stronger by singing. Even before I came to Exsilium, I already knew how to do these things, and the added sentience only made my talents that much stronger. It's one of the things I learned during my time as an Orlesian bard.

[ huh, he looks kinda impressed. ]

That's pretty sweet, y'know.

Shall I also mention how I can beat the stuffing out of a huge bandit in hand to hand combat, shoot a deer from a hundred paces while blindfolded, open every lock, hide in every shadow and create poisons that could kill a man in a few instances? No?

Jesus Christ, what're you some kinda ninja-amazon chick? I mean, I know my fair share of stuff but...man. I guess I know why the Initiative zapped you here now.

[ She laughs. ]

I used to be a spy. An infiltrator and assassin, too, when the job called for it.

But now I like to stick to traveling and singing.

[ganking]

An assassin, huh? [ he would have never guessed, oops. ] Is there anything you can't do?

[songofvalor]

[ THAT IS WHY SHE IS EFFECTIVE. ]

[ Rubs her chin thoughtfully. ]

I can't cook.

[ganking]

Oh, well that just ruins it completely, doesn't it? All that talent and then you can't cook, damn. [ except he's just kidding bc fuck cooking. ]

So what's your name? Leli-something, right?

I am Leliana. You are?

[ganking]

Guess not.

Leliana? Almost had it. You can call me Dean.

It was a valiant effort.

It's nice to meet you, Dean.
