Dragon Age fans did eventually get an explanation \u2014 but to be honest, it\u2019s only ever raised more questions.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\">[<strong>Ed. note:<\/strong> This piece contains some spoilers for the opening of <em>Dragon Age: The Veilguard<\/em>.]<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\">Bianca, Varric\u2019s steampunk-ass repeating crossbow, doesn\u2019t feature much in <em>Veilguard<\/em>\u2019s opening hours. At June\u2019s Summer Game Fest, <a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/CTNwHShylIg?si=XRERtp47ks5vvCMc\">BioWare\u2019s gameplay preview<\/a> revealed that Bianca takes a mighty blow from Solas\u2019 magic, shattering into pieces. Maybe Varric can put it back together again, maybe he can\u2019t \u2014 you\u2019ll have to play the game to find out. But if it is the end of Bianca, it\u2019s an epic death for the only inanimate object in Dragon Age canon worthy of character status.\u00a0<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<div>\n<div><iframe title=\"Dragon Age II - Meeting Varric\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/4vRcJLJAepM?rel=0&#038;start=169\" allowfullscreen allow=\"accelerometer; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share;\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\">Varric and Bianca are jointly introduced in <em>Dragon Age 2<\/em> when a pickpocket lifts your player-character\u2019s coin purse and Varric fires a single bolt so accurately that it pins the fleeing thief to a wall by his clothing. Varric talks to Bianca as if it were alive and horny for him (it\u2019s worth clarifying that it is not alive, considering this is a fantasy setting) \u2014 half his combat barks are things like \u201cBianca, baby, introduce yourself!\u201d or \u201cBianca, you minx! That was beautiful!\u201d \u2014 and while he definitely likes to showboat, he\u2019s not wrong to value it as a weapon.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\">In the main story of <em>Dragon Age 2<\/em>, you learn that Bianca is singular \u2014 there\u2019s no other crossbow in the world that fires automatically, never mind so quickly and powerfully. It\u2019s the perfect weapon for a self-described lazy merchant prince and part-time novelist. What you never learn, however, is where Bianca came from or whether it\u2019s named after a person named Bianca. As Varric describes it in <em>Dragon Age: Inquisition<\/em>, it\u2019s the one story he\u2019ll never tell.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\"><em>Dragon Age 2<\/em>\u2019s <em>Legacy<\/em> DLC has the game\u2019s first \u201cexplanation\u201d for Bianca\u2019s origin: It was created by Gerav, a dwarven engineer and old mafia contact of Varric\u2019s \u2014 which Varric explains after he\u2019s forced to kill Gerav, who\u2019d been driven mad by darkspawn infection. You\u2019ll note, however, that this doesn\u2019t explain why he calls Bianca \u201cBianca,\u201d and fans would eventually find out that this was a lie of omission, easy to make because Gerav could no longer speak for himself.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\">Bianca\u2019s namesake would be revealed for the first time in the tie-in comic <em>Dragon Age: Until We Sleep<\/em>, and eventually <em>Dragon Age: Inquisition<\/em>. The real Bianca \u2014\u00a0I mean, the human Bianca \u2014 no, wait\u2026 The <em>living<\/em> Bianca was a dwarven smith and Varric\u2019s secret, long-distance true love; they could never be together because of dwarven mafia politics and her arranged marriage. Gerav created Varric\u2019s crossbow, but he never succeeded in getting it to work. It wasn\u2019t until Varric brought it to his clever lover that Bianca (the dwarf) was able to make Bianca (the crossbow) into the fearsome weapon he wields in the games.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/arcader.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/dragon-ages-oddest-mystery-is-about-a-crossbow-named-bianca.jpg\" alt=\"Bianca Davri, a dwarf character, as seen in Dragon Age: Inquisition.\" title=\"Bianca Davri, a dwarf character, as seen in Dragon Age: Inquisition.\" data-has-syndication-rights=\"1\" data-caption=\"The original Bianca, as seen in &lt;em&gt;Dragon Age: Inquisition&lt;\/em&gt;. \" data-portal-copyright=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\">Having done that, however, Varric and Bianca realized they had to keep the origins of the crossbow secret, lest she be hunted down and forced to mass manufacture it for the scariest bidder. And as of the end of <em>Dragon Age: Inquisition<\/em>, Bianca (the dwarf) is still alive, and her secret is still safe. Only Varric\u2019s closest friends and a few members of the Inquisitor\u2019s inner circle know the truth.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\">This part of the story makes sense \u2014 Bianca the crossbow is essentially a fantasy machine gun. \u201cA crossbow that fires this far and this quickly with so little training? Every battle would be a massacre,\u201d Varric tells Solas in <em>Inquisition<\/em>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\">But the rest of the story, if I may say so as Polygon\u2019s foremost Varric Tethras fan, comes apart like tissue paper. If Varric and Bianca made a pact to keep this crossbow from being widely manufactured, then why didn\u2019t they just destroy it? Why is Varric swaggering around Kirkwall pinning muggers to walls in broad daylight? If they want to keep it a secret that Bianca created this crossbow, then why did Varric name it after her? Why is he <em>constantly<\/em> calling the crossbow Bianca, loudly, in the middle of every fight?&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\">Video games are huge projects, made from the work of hundreds of creatives, and that\u2019s before you factor in sequels, DLC, and tie-in comics. You can\u2019t expect a work of world-building like Dragon Age, which is over 15 years old and made from many, many hands, not to have <em>some<\/em> plot holes. And as a dyed-in-the-wool superhero fan, I know the best way to respond to plot holes: Just relax and go with them.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\">Everything we know about Varric says that he\u2019s a keen judge of humanity and a canny schemer with a heart of gold, who\u2019s willing to sacrifice his own time and well-being to protect those closest to him. The thing that tickles me, as a Dragon Age fan, is that calling his crossbow Bianca says that he\u2019s also a dumb idiot who can\u2019t shut up about the accomplishments of his loved ones. And I enjoy believing that, because it\u2019s very endearing.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.polygon.com\/gaming\/477773\/dragon-age-varric-crossbow-bianca-name\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The opening few hours of Dragon Age: The Veilguard entice old players and get new ones up to speed with the clever use of one character: Varric Tethras, scribe of heroes.
