hey, love reading your headcanons and stories about your inquisitor! just wanted to hear your opinion on how you feel about asian representation in dragon age? or in fantasy in general? for a very diverse game i don't canonically recognize any of the characters as being of asian descent and wondered if you've thought about that as well in making Yun.
imo i dont think dragon age is incredibly diverse, there are some black-coded and ambiguous poc characters in there but i feel that the majority of the companions/world is white-coded (and like you said, no (east or otherwise) asian-coded characters at all) and its a shame but i dont think i can say anything that other people havent already said about diversity in fantasy
it definitely influences the kind of characters i make but i dont think i really think about it consciously, exactly, i just make characters i can see myself in
i just realized ive never put a pic of yun in game here before

Pyrostremma spinosum (Giant fire salp)
"Pyrosomes, genus Pyrosoma, are free-floating colonial tunicates that live usually in the upper layers of the open ocean in warm seas, although some may be found at greater depths. Pyrosomes are cylindrical- or conical-shaped colonies made up of hundreds to thousands of individuals, known as zooids. Colonies range in size from less than one centimeter to several metres in length.
Each zooid is only a few millimetres in size, but is embedded in a common gelatinous tunic that joins all of the individuals. Each zooid opens both to the inside and outside of the “tube”, drawing in ocean water from the outside to its internal filtering mesh called the branchial basket, extracting the microscopic plant cells on which it feeds, and then expelling the filtered water to the inside of the cylinder of the colony. The colony is bumpy on the outside, each bump representing a single zooid, but nearly smooth, though perforated with holes for each zooid, on the inside.
Pyrosomes are planktonic, which means their movements are largely controlled by currents, tides, and waves in the oceans. On a smaller scale, however, each colony can move itself slowly by the process of jet propulsion, created by the coordinated beating of cilia in the branchial baskets of all the zooids, which also create feeding currents.
Pyrosomes are brightly bioluminescent, flashing a pale blue-green light that can be seen for many tens of metres. The name Pyrosoma comes from the Greek (pyro = “fire”, soma = “body”). Pyrosomes are closely related to salps, and are sometimes called “fire salps”.
Sailors on the ocean are occasionally treated to calm seas containing many pyrosomes, all luminescing on a dark night.” (x)
