Ferelden Fromagerie: the many cheeses of Dragon Age Inquisition

Where's the cheese? Well, if you're playing Dragon Age: Inquisition you already know the answer. It's liberally scattered around the game in some completely baffling places.

Skeleton, cards, cheese

This is the cheese that started the whole thing. Falling down a drop in the town of Crestwood revealed this: a skeleton, a pile of playing cards and a wheel of cheese big enough to crush a Qunari. No other information provided.

The Wedge of Destiny

Also in Crestwood, meet the Wedge of Destiny. This lootable piece of cheese becomes a shield for your sword and board characters -- complete with cheese knife still embedded near the missing wedge.

Picnic cheeses

This one was supplied by a gamer who goes by the handle of randomllama. She says that: "straight after finding this I got jumped by a giant spider as big as a house ... I think the cheese was in cahoots".

Office snack?

Well at least this one makes a little more sense -- after a long day of balancing the castle's accounts, who doesn't enjoying unwinding with an enormous chunk of cheese and an orange? (Thanks to Bec Lancaster for this one.)

Uncut cheese

This one, on the otherhand, just looks unhygienic sitting around in a dank room directly under a naked flame.

Cheese art

Another from randomllama -- this one being important enough to catch the eye of Orlesian marble workers. "In Empress Celene's palace there's a statue holding a piece of Swiss cheese in a bowl in the guest wing."

Desert cheese

Quite frankly, there's very little we can think of less appetising than cheese that been sitting on a rock in the middle of a desert. Eat at your own risk.

Fade cheese

Found directly under a fade rift in the middle of the Hinterlands. Somehow this cheese managed to not be trampled by shades, rage demons or undead archers.
