The Great Thedas Landmark Search

Leliana has recently dispatched an urgent communication:

We have faith in your ability to complete this mission. The journey will not be easy, but you must discover these landmarks before our enemy does!

Ambassador Montilyet has acquired many riches from sources throughout Thedas in support, and we look forward to bestowing them upon you in celebration of your success.

Most challenges can be completed through careful examination of codex entries and savvy exploration, but only the most resourceful explorers can find all 16 landmarks. (HINT: Don't limit your search only to designated landmarks.)

Good luck, and good hunting!

Include your name and the corresponding challenge number in your file name, and submit your photos to biowarefansubmissions@ea.com. EXAMPLE: "inquisitor_challenge5.jpg”
