If you can't bear to watch LARP-ing unless it's wrapped in professional production and synergistic, transmedia-compatible fiction, you'll want to tune in to Dragon Age: Redemption, a six-episode web series starting on October 11. Actually, ignore the "tune in" anachronism: Redemption will debut exclusively on Machinima's Youtube channel.

The show has an interactive companion in Dragon Age 2: Mark of the Assassin, a new downloadable expansion that also launches on October 11. Both stories are propelled by the star power of Felicia Day, who plays a sarcastic elf assassin. It must be a tough life, always being on the verge of assassinating yourself.
