The Circle of Magi: Rebellion, Reformation, Demonic Possession, and Chantry Politics

In this week's episode, Austin and Shelby dive into a huge topic--the Circles of Magi.

If you've played Dragon Age: Origins, you're probably pretty familiar with the Circles, or at least Fereldan's Circle. But if you routinely skip this section of DAO, or if you haven't yet jumped into DAO, you might not be as familiar with the inner-workings of a Circle of Magi.

In this episode, we talk all about the Circles, including their history, when they were founded, what they're like today, and how mages exist within their confines. We also take a few minutes to badmouth Seeker Lambert along the way.
