Dragon Age: The Veilguard is back with another episode of the Vows & Vengeance podcast. Titled The Demon that Came Knocking, it introduces the viewers to another future companion: a Nevarran Mortalitasi Emmrich and his skeletal companion Manfred.
Emmrich Volkarin is a long-standing member of the Mourn Watch, an elite group within the Mortalitasi. This necromancer was featured in the Tevinter Nights, but now it’s finally the time to ‘hear’ him in action!
In the first episode, the audience met Nadia, a retired thief unknowingly working for the Dread Wolf. Nadia and her lover, Elio, find themselves in the midst of something much greater than them – a threat to the entire world – until Elio is seemingly banished to the Fade. This is when she runs into Drayden, a writer with an interesting connection to the Fade, and this unlikely duo gets into all sorts of situations.
The latest one even requires the help of an accomplished necromancer! This episode stars Mae Whitman as Nadia, Brigette Lundy-Paine as Drayden, Armen Taylor as Elio, Matt Mercer as Manfred, and Nick Boraine as Emmrich.
“It’s a race against the clock as Nadia rides to Nevarra to find a cure for Drayden, but a dangerous storm delays her journey. However, as fate would have it, Nadia meets a necromancer named Emmrich and, together, they take shelter in what they think is an abandoned castle.”
