summary for those who don't know
this is Isabela from the Dragon Age series, she was a minor character in the first game, who became part of the main cast for the second game. As part of this, she received a major overhaul in appearance cause she's just a generic default facegen character in DA:O. Now, because she is such a minor character in the first game, she literally only appears in a single building with shit orange lighting, gamers actually were able to delude themselves into thinking she's white and they started whining about 'blackwashing' 🤢 (also there's like a bunch of mods on Nexus that make her white thanks nexus (tbf I am convinced they probably would delete it if uploaded now but still fucken hell))
kicker: she's significantly lighter skinned in the second game than in the first game (thanks bioware)
I had no idea she appeared in Origins
You can have an orgy with her, leliana, zevran, and alistair, iirc. No cutscene though. She also teaches you the duelist specialization for rogues. Fairly important for a minor character. If you didn't hit up the brothel you'll never meet her though.
I played through Origins only once and as a mage, so I probably didn't look around for her. Still, I liked her a lot on DA2, so it's nice discovering she was in the first game
Yeah, she's somewhat obscure and not the most memorable since she's not recurring or anything
If you went to the Pearl you probably wouldn't have missed her tho, she does draw a lot of attention, cause she has a fairly similar scene to her intro scene in 2. Probably she's easier to remember if you (re)play DA:O after DA2 and recognise her from it
