Ayesopod Any Pronouns - Guest Artist
Tell us about yourself! My name is Ilja! I am a 23 year old artist from Czechia. I've done graphic design and illustration professionally before, but mostly keep art as a hobby these days. I got into Dragon Age a little over a year ago and have since played all the games and am currently making my way through the books/comics as well. I have a special place in my heart for the first two games especially! How did you get into Dragon Age? My boyfriend forced me to play Dragon Age Inquisition one day and the rest is history! Who is your favorite Warden? Ooooh probably either Nathaniel or Loghain. It's really hard to pick one.
Introducing Ayesopod, one of our guest page artists! The emotion transmitted through their drawings and their use of darker color palettes will help us defeat this Blight!

Tell us a little about yourself! I'm an ATX based cartoonist and illustrator currently working on my third graphic novel! How did you get into Dragon Age? In 2011 I bought a friend's Xbox 360 and Dragon Age Origins & 2, but didn't get into it until 2014 after watching my college roommate play Inquisition and falling in love with the world of Thedas. Who is your favorite Warden? Davrin!! π

Loustica Lou Pronouns: Any Guest
Tell us a little about yourself! Hiya, I'm Lou! A swiss multidisciplinary artist who loves to draw Dragon Age fanarts and created an army of OC's to fill the streets of Thedas even more! I've been active in this fandom since 2021, even if I played the game long before. But since, the brainrot never left me (The Chantry would say I'm probably an abomination!). I'm Partha, Amgetoll; I'm Kallak, Amgarrak. I'm Tod, Amgeforn. How did you get into Dragon Age? My brother bought Dragon Age: Inquisition back in 2015, when I knew nothing about this game series - I wasn't even aware there were two other full games before that! So right after beating it, I caught up playing Origins, Awakening, Exodus (II), and more recently, Veilguard! Repeat, over and over! haha Who is your favorite Warden? Antoine & Evka Ivo, but also Alistair and Davrin!

Hi!
You have not! We are finalizing everything, and results should come out soon
Stay vigilant! Results delivered soon
Greetings Wardens!
As we are near finished going through applications, we'll soon be sending out results! Everyone who applied will receive an email, and be sure to check your spam inbox as well. Thank your for your patience thus far and we canβt wait to welcome you all!
Good Afternoon Wardens!
You may notice our account is emptier than usual-- after a change in our mod team, we are in the process of reworking some graphics.
Please stand by as we make the necessary replacement posts and return to our regularly scheduled recruit spotlights.
Thank you!
Contributor Applications are closed!
The Grey Warden numbers shall soon be replenished as we have received 150 applications! Thank you to all who took the time to apply. We will go through each application and results should come out after that. Everyone who applied will be notified of the results.
What's the zine's stance on AI?
We won't be using AI on the creation of this zine. If you are found to be using AI in the submission for the zine and/or have used it for works you posted in the past, you will be immediately removed from the project and have all work thrown out.
- How will merch manufacturing be handled?
We'll be handling manufacturing with a mix of usa and chinese companies, and we will be shipping from the usa.
We will pick from pitches after all contributors are onboarded to be fair and ensure equal representation of all characters and games/media for the franchise.
- How are themes/characters/topic assingments going to look like?
We will assign an oath line (In war, victory; in peace, vigilance; in death, sacrifice) and a game/media but we won't assign characters, and we will pick from 2 or 3 pitches made by the contributor. +
Q&A
- When the creation period is going to be?
The creation period will be from March through May, with extensions being granted to those who may need some more time to work on their piece.
We are looking at options and will have a broader discussion once contributors have been onboarded. We will make an announcement once we reach a decision!
Within the next few days we'll start sharing our mod spotlights, create our FAQ, and reveal our contributor application opening date. If you want to keep track on our progress, be sure to give us a follow here and on Tumblr!
See you on the frontlines, Recruits!

Hello Recruits! Thank you all for your patience during our extended inactivity. Unfortunately, behind the scenes several mods had some real life complications that had to be handled first, but we are happy to say we're now able to dedicate our focus to working on Victory, Vigilance, Sacrifice! +
Be sure to stay VIGILANT for more announcements on the horizon-- we just need to SACRIFICE a little more time and effort putting them together! π
