[Original Story] Felicia Day is now officially a part of the marketing blitz for Dragon Age 2. USA Today reports that Day has written and stars in an upcoming six-episode web series entitled, Dragon Age: Redemption.

Day will play Tallis, an elven assassin who "fights dirty" and has a sarcastic wit. She sets out to capture a renegade magician, and forms alliances with other Ferelden residents along the way. The series is set to premiere later this year, but an exact date wasn't set. Our bet is riding on sometime in March, to cross-promote Dragon Age 2.

Day is accustomed to web series, having made her mark with The Guild and Dr. Horrible. BioWare co-founder Greg Zeschuk said her "passion and appreciation for the content and a really good history of quality" made her right for the job. Peter Winther (Independence Day associate producer) directs the shorts, and John Bartley (Lost) serves as the cinematographer.
