About
Dragon Age Annual is an unofficial charity calendar featuring fanworks from
talented, volunteer Dragon Age fans— artists, writers, and more.
DAA is a celebration of all things Thedas; a labor of love from fans who want
to create something positive in their community. Our fan creators work together
to produce a 40 page full-color calendar with covers, 12 months, and 5 bonus
works, all for the benefit of a chosen charity. As the project has expanded, we
have also begun to offer fan-made merchandise, mini zines, activity books, and
more, bringing a new and exciting mix of offerings every year.
DAA first began production in 2021 for a 2022 calendar (confusing we know) and
has continued annually since!
How It Started #
One day in 2021 some friends were having a conversation:
Imagine if there was a pin-up calendar of Thedas’ hottest villains!
Ha ha, yeah who would be crazy enough to do that right…?
And thus the Dragon Age Annual was born. While we never quite got to the villain
pin-up calendar, we are proud of what the Annual has and continues to achieve.
As you can see, our mod team is small for such a large project, so it can be
challenging for us to identify everything we do with easy titles. It’s best to
assume we all do a little of everything to make sure we get the Annual out to
each of you in the highest quality we can!
Meet the Mods #
I’m a fandom old who’s been involved in internet fandom in some shape or form
since right around the time the internet became available for home use in the
ancient days. I took a long break from fandom, but when I finally came back in
earnest around 2019, I threw myself wholeheartedly into the DA fandom.
I’m primarily a writer, but I also love to run projects, events, and
communities. I dabble in coding and graphic design. At any given time I have a
chaotic mass of projects and deadlines happening all at once, but the Annual is
always my favorite. I’m immensely proud of the work we manage to accomplish each
year!

I have loved Dragon Age since Origins was released when I played my first
Surana, but I didn’t become an active participant in fandom until 2019 while
desperate for more Solavellan content. From that point on, DA has been my one
true obsession.
I’m mainly an artist who also runs a couple of Dragon Age exchanges and servers.
The Annual is probably the largest project I’ve taken a leading part in, and I’m
thrilled that we can continue its production. It’s always a joy to witness the
amazing creations our contributors put together each year.

I face-planted into the Dragon Age fandom back in 2021 after my best friend
showed me a PowerPoint about how Solas broke their heart and I haven’t left
since. The community is what keeps me here and I’m thrilled to be part of events
that keep that supportive spirit of creation alive!
I’m a fanfiction writer and avid multishipper with enough OCs and world states
that I need a spreadsheet to keep them organized. Dragon Age Annual is one of my
favorite projects to work on and I’m excited to see what everyone creates!
