Wheelchair representation?

[havenharpy]

hi gamers! I've been playing Dragon Age since never, and I've always wanted to be able to represent myself in this beautiful, gorgeous looking AAA game ! unfortunately, ever since the accident in 2019, I've been bound to a wheelchair for 7 years now :( and I was hoping that the epic devs at BioWare would add in some options in the SUPER INCLUSIVE character creature to represent me in the game :D! it would mean the world to me as a lifelong fan of the franchise if I could finally see a reflection of myself in my 2024 game of the year! also if it's not to much to ask, I'd love it if you put jet thrusters on the wheelchair so that I could go really fast like the van that ran me over 7 years ago

The van may have taken your legs, but it left you with an amazing sense of humor. I hope they do get you the wheelchair with jet thrusters.

Thank you kind samaritan, thank you

You laugh, but an RPG where it would make sense to have a wheelchair based character would be pretty cool. The first thing that comes to mind is Prof. Xavier from X-Men. He's never included in Marvel Avengers. Maybe the next installment will include him, and won't be an absolute dumpster fire of a game for technical design, and monetization reasons.

Someone created this for the Dragon Age tabletop RPG a few years back. Enjoy.

You should replay Mass Effect, Joker is a great representation for you. His callsign fits your sense of humor too and he actually has some character progression and hope throughout the trilogy

The Normandy is the best mobility device. Even has thrusters.

Well, if they have included scars for 'top' surgery, then why not a wheelchair? Even in a fantasy world, wheelchairs must surely be used? It seems like a certainty.

I'm sure an RPG will offer that eventually. It would actually be interesting to play a protag that is a paraplegic. Unironically.

That's what I'm saying! not only would it be absolutely EPIC it'll also help people like me, who got ran over by a van in 2019, feel SEEN

You may as well share that gruesome story. Were you protesting something and ran over by an enraged driver?

On a side note, was it 7 years ago or 5? Sorry for making you revisit the accident.

It was November 12th, 2016, just a few days after that RACIST FASCIST Trump got elected. I was walking home to my New York apartment after grabbing a soy latte from the local Starbucks when all of a sudden, I was knocked unconscious. When I woke, I was in the hospital, with my legs bent into a pretzel (FYI the pretzel tasted good), and the doctors told me I'd never walk again. They also said to me that I got hit by a white van that was being driven by the local pedophile Douglas, and that he was currently abducting three little boys who aren't relevant to this story. Regardless, I just know that man is just another RACIST MAGA REPUBLICAN, and I will do everything in my power to make sure he rots in prison for running me over ON PURPOSE because of my race (Italian).

At least you got a pretzel out of it. But imagine if you had been drinking a black coffee instead of the soy latte. The soy weakened you. If you hadn't been drinking it, the car would've just crumpled unto itself because it hit an alpha male. And nothing can destroy an alpha male.

You're so right bro, ever since I stopped drinking that soy GARBAGE, my life has gotten so much better. My legs may never grow back, but at least I still have my arms, and arms are better than legs

So it was the fault of the latte after all? That's tragic. At least the van was OK. Silver linings.
