Original.

A pleasant skin that is easy to view and browse, no issues found.

Each sub-forum is easily labelled and in a logical order. I found the majority of what I was looking for very easily. Only small suggestion is that a bit or reordering of topics in some information forums may make it easier to view/for visitors to find if looking quickly.

There is a great sub-forum for plots, however, I can't seem to find a basic plot summary anywhere. There are very handy topics detailing what is canon and what is used from the games (this is very useful considering the Dragon Age games had multiple endings), but no quick and easy topic that summarises what is happening. If it does exist it isn't easy to find.

There is an abundance of information regarding how the RPG works, and information for each aspect of the Dragon Age universe. The Guide for Newcomers is useful, although it might be better "bumped" up to the top of the posts or stickied.

There is a guest friendly Feedback Forum and an 'Ask the Admin' topic for a direct line to the admin, both are answered promptly and politely.

Templates are provided for character profiles, with a range of short and long answers required. The completed template is posted in the subforum for approval. No writing sample is required.

I noticed in the FAQ that a maximum limit was added for a section of the character profiles, this doesn't appear to be on the profile templates :)
