Leliana the Orlesian bard from the Dragon Age series. The title for this picture was inspired by one of the lines spoken by Leliana in the DAO trailer "Sacred Ashes" [link].

Leliana is my favorite character from DAO and (unsurprisingly) the LI for my Grey Warden. Here Leliana is showing off her archery and acrobatic skills by taking an impossible shot to her enemy with Marjolaine's Recurve - the bow "inherited" from her mentor - and we can all pretend that the arrow is one of the prized Andraste's arrows! ;)

CREDITS:
Made with XNALara and edited in Paint.NET.

Models used:
- Leliana in Orlesian Light armor meshmod by me [link]
- Marjolaine's Recurve, quiver and arrow by me [link]

Additional resources used:
- Flame Sniper pose reference by SenshiStock [link]
- Background Chantry symbol and frame created using screenshots of some DA2 transition screens.

NOTES:
- The model used for Marjolaine's Recurve is actually the DA2 one called "Longtouch" which shares its appearance with Leliana's longbow.
- For some reason the longbow models in DA2 do not include a bowstring, so I had to add one at my own end. Which in turn means the bowstring probably looks crappy... so, please don't look at that too much! :)

DISCLAIMER:
Dragon Age Origins, Dragon Age II, Leliana and all other game related assets belong to BioWare and EA.

Great posing! And the bowstring looks perfect to me. I'll have to find a bowstring to use too :)

Thank you, also for your kind words about the bowstring... I've been drawing that at my end and I'm still afraid to look at it in too detail... fortunately Leliana is a good distraction! ;)

Oh you drew it yourself?? Looks like it came with the bow because you did such a great job. And you made Leliana look amazing too :)
