Oh my god this is beautiful. I, too, was never one for the helms or cowls because they looked.. ridiculous? But then I put this one on my mage Hawke and I too love it to pieces. There's something so mysterious and shadowed about it, like having Hawke wear it makes him/her that much more of a guardian. Personally I prefer the Spirit Healer specialization, but the Force Mage is incredible too (maybe, just maybe, one of these days I'll be deranged enough to be an aggressive blood mage, but it's not likely for the time being XD).
Have you considered making it again? Or similar ones for sale? I would so buy one from you if you did. Dragon Age is one of my favorite game series and I absolutely adore this pendant.
