Did you know that BioWare has based at least two of the characters in Dragon Age: Origins on real-life attractive women? It's true! It's a brilliant move, sure to land them a feature in Maxim! As of yesterday!

According to Maxim, the two "real life hotties" Alleykatze Alex Stein and Victoria Johnson have "lent their sexy curves to their video game counterparts" in Dragon Age: Origins, giving you something to think about during loading screens or just before bedtime or really whenever you feel like it. And Maxim has exclusive shots of all this real life hottieness.

It's a tactic previously employed by the folks at BioWare, who tapped... err... employed the likeness of pretty person Jillian Murray for Mass Effect's Liara T'soni.
