Introducing the final new mod rounding out the Arlathan eXchange team!

☆ Mod Intro​

• Name: DirThenera, or Thenera. Dir is ok too.
• Pronouns: she/her

I discovered Dragon Age in 2018 during a difficult time of my life, and quickly became obsessed, especially with all things Elvhen. Soon just the game wasn't enough for me and I dusted off my rusty drawing skills and rustier writing skills.

Mostly obsessed with Solas, I've written a couple hundred thousand words of fic, mostly bittersweet with some snark. I love deep lore dives and angst and character explorations.

As a painter, I love complex colors and unusual lighting, and seeing if I can capture the essence of the character. I hate doing backgrounds, but it's a skill I've been working on. Portraits are my favorite.

I can't wait for Dreadwolf, and I'm excited to celebrate elves with all of you in the meantime!

Please welcome another one of our new mods!

• Name: Sterling, but Plisuu is fine!
• Pronouns: he/him

Dragon Age has been the love of my life since I discovered Inquisition while fumbling through tumblr in the days of the Tresspasser hype. I hung around the outskirts for a while before really throwing myself into the fandom in 2018, and have been around since!

I'm an artist and a writer with a penchance for all things angsty and queer, an equal-opportunity companion lover, and multishipper. I love to see the variety in the community as folks create unique charcaters with vastly different backgrounds and experiences that all fit into the world of Thedas, coloring the world with rich culture and lore.

I have a particular soft spot for the tranquil, and am a templar lore afficianado among other things. Unconvential pairings, complex backstories, and deep dives into the human condition are totally my bag, baby! As far as the games go, Inquisition will forever be number one in my heart, from the companions and romances to the story. You may be more familar with me from my ongoing side-project, DAI Transcripts.

I'm thrilled to be on the Arlathan team this year, and am looking forward to the creativity this event always brings. I can't wait to see y'all there!

• Ao3 I can also be found floating around a number of Dragon Age Discord servers!

And now, to introduce the first of our new mods!

☆ Mod Intro​

• Name: Mer
• Pronouns: she/her

I face-planted into the Dragon Age fandom back in 2021 after my best friend showed me a PowerPoint about how Solas broke their heart and I haven't left since. The community is what keeps me here and I'm thrilled to be part of events that keep that supporitve spirit of creation alive!

I'm a fanfiction writer and avid multishipper with enough OCs and world states that I need a spreadsheet to keep them organized. The gray areas between canon events are my playground and my favorite stories are canon divergence that bend the lore without breaking it. I'm a sucker for found family and sibling dynamics and I love when characters are complicated and messy.

I've played and love all three games, but if I tried to pick a favorite we'd be here a while. Mages, elves, and rogues are my go-to blorbos, but I've yet to meet a Dragon Age character I don't like in some capacity.

I'm excited to join the Arlathan eXchange mod team this year and can't wait to see what everyone creates!

Introducing another familiar face on our mod team!

☆ Mod Intro​

• Name: Fox
• Pronouns: she/her

I have loved Dragon Age since Origins was released, but it wasn't until 2019 - after replaying Inquisition - that I was lured to take my first steps into the fandom. From that point on, Dragon Age has been my one true inspiration and obsession.

What first drew me into the fandom was the heartbreaking romance of Solas and Lavellan. I became enthralled with finding more stories and fanworks about them, but have since slid into rare pair hell and has taken it upon myself to create more content for it.

I'm primarily an artist, who also dabbles a bit with writing on the side. I love to explore and talk about the lore and characters of Dragon Age. I also love to participate and organize various exchanges and events in the fandom, among them this one.

As always, I am excited to run the Arlathan eXchange, and I am also happy to welcome our new mods to the team, who will undoubtedly help us make this event even better!

As the opening date of Arlathan eXchange rolls closer, we'd like to take a moment to introduce the old and new faces of our mod team!

☆ Mod Intro​

• Name: Enigmalea
• Pronouns: any

I'm a fandom old who's been involved in internet fandom in some shape or form since right around the time the internet became available for home use in the ancient days. I took a long break from fandom, but when I finally came back in earnest around 2019, I threw myself wholeheartedly into the DA fandom.

I'm primarily a writer, but I also love to run projects, events, and communities. I dabble in coding and graphic design. At any given time I have a chaotic mass of projects and deadlines happening all at once.

I have a hard time picking favorite characters or ships or tropes. I'm a hopeless multishipper who loves throwing everyone into poly configurations and seeing what shenanigans I can cook up.

I'm looking forward to modding Arlathan eXchange again this year and can't wait to see what everyone creates!
