No éramos mas que niños y muy pronto tuvimos que elegir un bando. Porque rara era la mañana en que el patio del colegio no se viera dividido por la eterna guerra entre Segueros y Nintenderos.

2018 October, Juan Carlos Bonache Rodríguez, Super Games World, Planeta Cómic, page 4:

We were just children and soon we had to choose a faction. As almost every morning the schoolyard was divided by an eternal war between Sega fans and Nintendo fans.

Los locutores principales (Funspot, Saeba e Isako) iban definiendo una defensa de opiniones que promoviera la tertulia (el objetivo estaba ahi, aunque no sabiamos como hacerlo correctamente por aquel entonces), y ahi salieron esos famosos "bloques" entre el Nintendero, el Seguero, el interesado en titulos de corte muy japonés...

(Can we date this quote?), Game Over, 10 años (haciendo el imbecil), page 17:

The main commentators (Funspot, Saeba and Isako) were building a defense of opinions that would promote the conversation (the goal was there, although we didn't know how to do it correctly back then), and those famous "factions" stemmed from there, between the Nintendo fan, the Sega fan, the one interested in very Japanese [game] products...

Shart

From a contraction of Shadowheart, itself a compound of shadow + heart, likely chosen as a jocular homonym of shart (“wet fart”).

They [BG3's female companions] aren't particularly evil, if you sided with the Goblins you can clearly tell that Shart isn't even evil, just very pragmatic about your Tadpole problem.

I felt like Lae and Shart will have potential redemption arcs and will be trying for those.

This build works equally well whatever you do with Shart, but obviously the whole stalking gloom thing is a better thematic fit for a Shar loyalist.

(Baldur's Gate fandom slang, humorous or derogatory) The fictional character Shadowheart from the video game Baldur's Gate 3.


Shadowbae

(Baldur's Gate fandom slang) The Gale romance subplot in the video game Baldur's Gate 3.


Astarionmance

As someone who's romancing both Astarion and Gale in simultaneous separate playthroughs, I am loving the difference so much: Galemance caters to my soft Harlequin Romance side while Astarionmance is so totally my Bodice-Ripper bag, baby!

2020 November 7, TheAbominableMomo, Reddit:

i will wait patiently for bg3 console release and NOT watch any more Astarionmance videos

Astarionmancer

As a professional Astarionmancer, you can get “Very High Approval” without the need to be evil.

I’m an Astarionmancer with a lot of thoughts and not enough creative outlets.

As a fellow Astarionmancer I don't mind a little peck before finishing his personal quest, but after that he should be more passionate.

(Baldur's Gate fandom slang) A player who romances Astarion during a playthrough of Baldur's Gate 3.


Fenrismancer

I'm a chronic Fenrismancer (seriously I have a problem), but I just downloaded Mark of the Assassin and Legacy.

2015 January 26, [deleted user account], Reddit:

Plus I'm a chronic Fenrismancer who favors mage and rogue playthroughs, so I usually want him along as my warrior anyway.

I was never a Fenrismancer but now I might romance him again properly on my next run.

(Dragon Age fandom slang) A player who romances Fenris during a playthrough of Dragon Age II.


Andersmance

I love the Andersmance and Isabelamance because both of them change the story in their own ways.

My Andersmance is a playthrough that has very dear meaning to me, but Anders throws off so many red flags, he might as well be a matador.

My Andersmance was taken at a more leisurely pace, so I really got into the depth and grief over his character and his romance.

(Dragon Age fandom slang) The Anders romance subplot in the video game Dragon Age II.


Fenrismance

I love the Fenrismance, but GOD some of the flirt options are awful and pull you right out of the actual conversation.

2019 January 20, SpaceQueenJupiter, Reddit:

The Fenrismance is SO GOOD for just those reason.

I was halfway through Act 2 when I realised I'd sabotaged my own Fenrismance T.T

Andersmancer

Huh, I definitely didn't expect Cullen to be the most popular DAI romance among Andersmancers.

2017 September 6, presenceofwitch, Reddit:

I'm a Andersmancer for life tbh but I get it, he's not for everyone

That said, I'm a fuck the Chantry Andersmancer, and my Hawke lives with him in an underground bunker now.

(Dragon Age fandom slang) A player who romances Anders during a playthrough of Dragon Age II.


Cullenmance

I purposely left Cullenmance for after my Solasmance because I need Cullen as my pick me up, but damn, this Solas thing is just sad.

The thing I like about the Cullenmance is that yeah, it's basically a fairy tale, but it's so obviously one that it makes it okay.

Do it. Do the Cullenmance. Love the Cullen. Marry the Cullen.

2018 December 31, emberwolfsasha, Reddit:

(Dragon Age fandom slang) The Cullen romance subplot in the video game Dragon Age: Inquisition.


Solasmance

I keep putting off my Solasmance, because I have an aversion to heartbreak.

I also vastly prefer the Cullenmance to the Solasmance.

2023 July 26, LikeAWildScallion, Reddit:

I started a Solasmancer playthrough and it's going to kill me probably.

There's a pretty good payoff in Trespasser for a Solasmancer. And by "pretty good" I mean "angst and bittersweet feels".

All we Solasmancers have is pain, forever and always LMAO

(Dragon Age fandom slang) A player who romances Solas during a playthrough of Dragon Age: Inquisition.


Bullmance

Also, Dorian has a lot more dialogue options than I am finding in the Bullmance so far.

And yeah, I think a Bullmance can actually be really healthy for certain Inquisitors!

Krem has a few specific comments if you're in a Bullmance that are really sweet.

(Dragon Age fandom slang) The Iron Bull romance subplot in the video game Dragon Age: Inquisition.


Dorianmance

Dorianmance will be forever my fav in whole dragon age universe.

I always play as a female character so no Dorianmance for me.

It goes downhill in Trespassers tho, where Dorianmance was an afterthought compared to Adoribull.

(Dragon Age fandom slang) The Dorian romance subplot in the video game Dragon Age: Inquisition.

Oh dear. Poor you. You're done for once you enter the Solavellan Hell.

2024 February 9, [deleted user account], Reddit:

(Dragon Age fandom slang) The state of exquisite agony experienced by shippers of Solas and the Inquistor (Solavellan)


Solavellan

Solavellan just gets me thinking the what ifs, headcanons, the theories. You have to really dig deep if you wanna understand the romance.

I am a (pretty hardcore) Solavellan shipper, though I completely understand it’s not everyone’s cup of tea.

Solavellan is probably my favorite romance from a narrative sense.

(fandom slang) The ship of Solas and the female elf Inquistor player character from Dragon Age: Inquisition.


Bullmancer

Kinda sucks that Bullmancers miss out on the dancing at the Winter Palace (well I suppose that happened, just off screen) and a wedding if true, […]

As a Bullmancer, I’m going to have to fight you now. He’s the best romance with the most interesting relationship outcome depending on your choices.

Goddamn Handers ship being so beautifully angsty.

2016 January 29, Nyxie Black (@NyxieBlack), Twitter:

I have no idea what liking the Handers pairing says about me lol 😂.

(fandom slang) The ship of Anders and player character Hawke from Dragon Age II.


Cullenmancer

I'm a chronic Cullenmancer and I like romancing him with a Lavellan.

I'm much more of a Cullenmancer, myself, but I did the Solas romance and was very surprised.

2018 December 31, asha_bellanar, Reddit:

No hate to Cullenmancers, maybe blondes just aren’t my type lol. I’m not an Alistair or Anders-mancer either.

(Dragon Age fandom slang) A player who romances Cullen Rutherford during a playthrough of Dragon Age: Inquisition.


Cullavellan

I just read the best cullavellan fic and now my blood is boiling why do I have class

2016 February 3, cade (@tinygrunt), Twitter:

There was this one cullavellan fic where both Cullen and Lavellan didn't want kids and honestly it made me so happy.

All the other Cullavellan shippers I’ve met saying how their Inky and Cullen fell in love at first sight and stuff… Meanwhile mine was ready to fist fight this man in a Denny’s parking lot any day of the week

2022 February 12, ace (@ace_trash_boi), Twitter:

(fandom slang) The ship of Cullen Rutherford and the female elf Inquistor player character from Dragon Age: Inquisition.


Purple Hawke

From the purple icon used to denote sarcastic dialogue choices in Dragon Age II.

Purple Hawke gets all the love, and I honestly see why. That irreverent little shit is hilarious.

I agree Purple Hawke can sometimes be inappropriate, but I don't find those situations that common...

Purple Hawke is one of the best protagonists in gaming period.

(Dragon Age fandom slang) A Hawke player character who expresses a sarcastic personality.


Inky

From an affectionate shortening of inquisitor + -y.

Do you like to play as an asshole Inky? What options, lines of dialogues, actions have you picked?

Of my 9 Inkies, the ones I felt to be the strongest (character-wise) were my atheist Trevelyan Reaver, my devout Andrastian Trevelyan mage, and my rebellious and fiercely elfy Lavellan who romanced Solas.

My Inky was a very faithful Andrastian, like his family, and he believed he was the Herald of Andraste…kind of.

(fandom slang, video games) The Inquisitor player character from the video game Dragon Age: Inquisition.


Red Hawke

From the red icon used to denote aggressive dialogue choices in Dragon Age II.

Red Hawke's deadpan delivery was one of the most hilarious moments in the game for me haha.

2015 September 23, HawkeThisHawkeThat, Reddit:

I once played a Red Hawke that was a sociopath that got off on the murder knife.

Blue Hawke was kind of a pollyanna and Red Hawke was a jerk, so I went with Purple Snarky Hawke.

(Dragon Age fandom slang) A Hawke player character who expresses an aggressive personality.


Blue Hawke

From the blue icon used to denote diplomatic dialogue choices in Dragon Age II.

Blue Hawke is too nice for the armpit of the free marches.

Blue Hawke tries to see the good in everyone even when things aren't ideal or working in their favor.

2022 October 28, [deleted user account], Reddit:

Blue Hawke is the only sane Hawke.

2023 March 29, TheHistoryofCats, Reddit:

(Dragon Age fandom slang) A Hawke player character who expresses a diplomatic personality.


Dorianmancer

I'm full on Dorianmancer, but I like to think my Inquisitor gives Bull the suspicious stink eye when they're out adventuring.

As a hardcore Dorianmancer I have a ton, but I think this quote is basically him saying that he loves the Inquisitor for the first time.

Honestly, Dorian and Bull have better relationship than Dorian and Inky, even if Dorianmancers don’t want to admit it.

(Dragon Age fandom slang) A player who romances Dorian Pavus during a playthrough of Dragon Age: Inquisition.


friendmance

en-verb

friendmance (third-person singular simple present friendmances, present participle friendmancing, simple past and past participle friendmanced)

friendmances (present singular third-person)
friendmancing (participle present)
friendmanced (participle past)
friendmanced (past)

LL-Q1860 (eng)-Flame, not lame-friendmance.wav

In my peronal^([sic]) opinion, Anders and Merrill are for friendmancing only, unless you want to truly, deeply hurt and bully them.

2015 December 28, [deleted user account], Reddit:

Friendmancing Fenris as a pro-Mage Hawke is another favourite. I really love the growth you see in him throughout.

If female Hawke friendmances Sebastian, he will suggest a chaste marriage with her taking vows as a Chantry sister.

(Dragon Age fandom slang) To romance a character in this manner in Dragon Age II.


rivalmance

LL-Q1860 (eng)-Flame, not lame-rivalmance.wav

Yes, Anders' rivalmance is cruel. I never did it, and I don't plan it (I simply can't imagine).

2017 December 17, CaiusGermanicus, Reddit:

I actually like the unhealthy aspects of the rivalmances (and some of the romances) in DA.

2018 February 21, wardsarefunctioning, Reddit:

I preferred the friendmance with Fenris personally, but like with Isabela, the rivalmance is also pretty good.

2019 February 24, KvonLiechtenstein, Reddit:

(Dragon Age fandom slang) A romance with a character with whom the player has an antagonistic relationship in Dragon Age II.

And finally I would rivalmance Anders by being a hypocritical mage that supported the templars.

I love rivalmancing Anders and Fenris. Brings a lot of tension that I find really sexy lol.

2019 May 10, [deleted user account], Reddit:

i wanted to rivalmance Merrill once but that would cause my heart to explode.


Granted, games like BG3 and other adaptations of the D&D franchise are not necessarily concerned with representing the real world as they seem to be with crafting fantasy.

2022, Earl A. Aguilera, "Theorizing Whiteness as a Proceduralized Ideology in Videogames", Journal of Games Criticism, Volume 5, Bonus Issue A, January 2022, pages 15-16

However, the company has suggested that 2023 will be the year that BG3 finally gets a full launch, with a complete story, and every promised race and class available.

2022, “The Game Awards 2022 Recap”, in The Gamer Guide, Issue 11, November-December 2022, page 26:

Larian Studios has developed BG3 as a sequel to the first two games, which were released in 1998 and 1999 respectively.

2023 November 10, Brynn Tannehill, “Baldur's Gate 3 has received widespread critical acclaim, the Blade chats with two key queer figures in the game”, in Los Angeles Blade, page 4:

(fandom slang) Initialism of Baldur's Gate 3.


Because in the end, the greatest joy of BG2 is the control you have over the protagonist.

2000 December, David Simkins, “Baldur's Gate II: Shadows of Amn”, in NEXT Generation, page 141:

After playing with them in BG1, BG2, IWD1 and now NWN, the same old spells are becoming somewhat wearisome.

2002 November, “Icewind Dale 2”, in PC Powerplay, page 67:

If you’ve played BG1 or BG2 and are looking to this as a temporary fix, you won’t find it.

2003 March, Chris Anderson, “Icewind Dale And Heart Of Winter”, in PC Zone, page 98:

(Dragon Age fandom slang) A player who romances Cassandra Pentaghast during a playthrough of Dragon Age: Inquisition.


Seramancer

Personally, I think Seramancers hit the jackpot with Trespasser.

2016 September 23, PapaCharlie9, Reddit:

I'm a chronic Seramancer but I love to see love for Blackwall.

also as a seramancer I must tell you to romance sera for she is the best

2019 November 17, smallizardthing, Reddit:

(Dragon Age fandom slang) A player who romances Sera during a playthrough of Dragon Age: Inquisition.


Old hands will recognise these characters from BG1, so there's instant motivation there for them, while multiple-choice dialogue lets newcomers know you've got history with them.

Baldur's Gate

Don't worry, I'm solving this problem by writing Cassmance fanfic.

Tried to do a Cassmance run in my most recent playthrough but the Redcliffe vendor question bugged out on me and there was no fixing.

(Dragon Age fandom slang) The Cassandra romance subplot in the video game Dragon Age: Inquisition.


Fenbela

how could the same franchise that gave us fenbela give us josie/blackwalll

2017 February 3, wizard of the order (@svirakir), Twitter:

Assuming Fenhawke isn't an option here, I don't mind Fenbela if it's well-written.

I love fenbela but I can’t write it cause it’s Too Sexy and I can’t look directly at it without losing my mind

2019 March 13, KIMMY'S SATANIC AIRBNB (@gothkimmyS(, Twitter:

(fandom slang) The ship of characters Fenris and Isabela from Dragon Age II.


Seramance

I think my next run after this will be human Chantry supporter & finally do a Seramance without the elfy stuff getting in the way.

2015 May 22, Christina González (@c_gonzalez), Twitter:

But divorced from my character, she feels like my little sister, making it feel weird to read any Seramance fics.

had no idea how GOOD the Seramance would be (it's just super bawdy which is exactly how I want romances written)

(Dragon Age fandom slang) The Sera romance subplot in the video game Dragon Age: Inquisition.


Josiemance

I believe you're correct, no sex scene. It's been awhile since I've played Josiemance.

Runner up is the Josiemance because again there's more going on than it looks, plus respect and caring!

Currently replaying in preparation for DAD, and the Josiemance is still as lovely as I remember.

(Dragon Age fandom slang) The Josephine romance subplot in the video game Dragon Age: Inquisition.


Josiemancer

I hate it too. Josiemancers got the short end of the stick in this DLC.

I am a diehard Josiemancer, but the fact that there is no approval system for the advisors is a miss.

barrelmancy

Barrelmancy is something that takes a little while to start.

2021 January 8, Aden Carter, “Divinity 2: Every Step To Create An All-Powerful Barrelmancer”, in GameRant:

Barrelmancy was such a hit with the Divinity community that there are actual mods dedicated to it, but it has many detractors, and barrelmancy in Baldur's Gate 3 1.0 is sadly not as potent as it was in the giddy days of early-early access.

2023 August 10, Edwin Evans-Thirlwell, “The secret best Baldur's Gate 3 class is, of course, Barrelmancer”, in Rock Paper Shotgun:

Divinity: Original Sin 2 fans also got a kick out of barrelmancy, so it’s no surprise to see Baldur’s Gate 3 fans pulling off the same trick.

From ortho- + chess, probably as a clipping of orthodox chess.

Problems of this sort have been exhaustively dealt with for orthochess (see A Guide to Fairy Chess, p. 39, for tables of results); Haas here presents 59 positions showing his best results for all possible moves, type A.

1974, Phillip Cohen, “Chessworld: Magazine Review”, in The Gamesletter, volume 13, number 1/2, Don Miller, page 10:

Avalanche chess is the same as orthochess, except that every move consists of two parts: (1) a normal legal chess move; and (2) pushing an opponent's pawn one square straight toward you. That's all there is to it really.

1992 June 20, Les Roselle, “What is a Nost?”, in Chess Life, volume 47, number 6, US Chess Federation, →ISBN:

In consequence, Italian domination of Progressive Chess was for many years comparable to that of Soviet domination of orthochess in times past.
