Dragon Age: Redemption (TV Series 2011)

The protagonist, initially referred to as "Athlok", is tasked by her Qunari superiors to apprehend a rogue Saarebas, who was captured and imprisoned in Kirkwall by the templars, but managed to break out of captivity and embarks on a rampage to perform a dark ritual and wreak havoc throughout the world. If she succeeds, she will regain her name and title of "Tallis" (meaning "to solve" in the Qunari language), and be reinstated as a member of the Ben-Hassrath, after being demoted as punishment for previous transgressions. In her quest to find this dangerous mage, Tallis is joined by other companions: a templar named Cairn, who is tracking the Saarebas with his phylactery and later crossed paths with Tallis when trying to hunt down a criminal who helped free the fugitive; Josmael, the First of a Dalish Keeper who was taken away and imprisoned by templars (and later killed by the Saarebas during the prison breakout); and Nyree, a reaver mercenary from Nevarra who was hired by the Saarebas and later double-crossed by the renegade mage.

Dragon Age: Redemption was a web series based on the video game by Bioware. The series was created by and stars Felicia Day, who in geek circles is quite the popular little lady. I bought the DVD from my local video store, but you can get the whole thing online. The most unfortunate thing is that there are only 6 episodes. I can only wish Felicia continues this somehow as I thought it was quite entertaining.

So Hopefully that worked.

As I stated above, I quite enjoyed this web-series and so wish it would continue. Yes, it's very cliched. And yes, it was done on the cheap. But I think it looks great and feels like a fantasy flick.

I love Felicia Day, and she is awesome here and looks fantastic. I'm definitely going to have to watch this again because I couldn't stop looking at her when she's onscreen. The rest of the cast is quite good as well, I have no complaints about any of the acting here.

The action is very well done, and the minimal use of effects are also nicely done. I'm really looking for something to complain about here, but can't find anything.

The story is simple, but fun and the pacing is quick and doesn't get bogged down. Yes, it's a little campy, but I quite enjoyed it. Here's hoping we get more Dragon Age: Redemption.
