Dragon Age - Preview @ IncGamers

Another preview of Dragon Age: Orgins for your consumption. This one is a very detailed and entertaining preview of the city elf origin. A word of warning, it is heavy on the spoiler side. Here is a spoiler free snippet from it:

Elves are generally loathed by the humans of Fereldan – the country in which Dragon Age is set – and tend to live with their brethren in the slums of major cities, termed Alienages, the name of which should give you an idea of how these poor people are looked upon by humanity in general. Alienages. Alien. Foreign. Different. Inhuman.
