-Spiders & Knives takes place in and around Lothering, so it needs to be completed before Lothering is destroyed by the darkspawn. The mod is suitable for any class - the main reward item at the end of the main path is tailored to the main player character.
+'''Spiders & Knives takes place in and around Lothering, so it needs to be completed before Lothering is destroyed by the darkspawn.''' The mod is suitable for any class - the main reward item at the end of the main path is tailored to the main player character.
 As far as I can tell, the difficulty level is broadly similar to other Lothering quests, whilst the rewards are a little higher - although hopefully not to an unbalancing extent. The main quest path has around 30 minutes of gameplay; there is an alternative, shorter, path of around 15-20 minutes which also provides a nice item as a reward, but less gold.

 To begin the quest, look at either the new Job Board in Denerim or the Chanter's Board in Lothering. You might also stumble upon the starting point of the quest whilst exploring around Lothering.
-Note that this mod is silent. Instead of VO I have used timed silences, so I recommend you use subtitles.

 * Perfect example of the type of module we had hoped CC7 would produce.
 * Nice use of the camera angle to hide the engines limitations in the cutscene.

 * Nice to be able to attempt to keep the swords (lie/threaten) however, while fun, the consequences seem somewhat unrealistic. Perhaps you could explore alternatives that don't end in a pitched battle with the Templars in front of a bunch of disciples and refugees?
 * Since the player is thrown straight into combat when entering the manor it would be helpful if Ser Arbither warned the player to be ready and gave them the chance make preparations.

 * An abundance of lore delivered through conversations, codex entries and points-of-interest placeables.
 * Good NPC dialogue. Bonus points for including the companions although I can't really imagine Leliana ever addressing Alistair as "''Ser'' Alistair"!

 * really enjoyable boss fights which required a bit of thinking and a bit of skill.

 * consider sending messages to the actively controlled character, rather than floaties over the main PC (who might be offscreen)
 * representing bunching/spreading by damage type was good, but this could be enhanced with a more permanent visual clue, like a red or blue aura from the enemy.

 * Well-rounded pair of short quests which fit in great with main campaign.
 * Nice to see so many community contest entries in here!
 * Really liked the messed up place and being able to use it throughout the rest of the game as a player house with storage.
