[@Handitar]

For some reason I felt much more of a connection with your family in the city elf origin than I did when I played as a human noble.

[@sandrols7]

+ClaraJ The human noble origin story was made incredibly sappy and happy with your family, probably in order to make the drama extra strong. The City Elf origin on the other hand, you have to share the drama with your family from the very first second, because conditions are obviously not that great. I guess that's why the connection could be stronger, because it's more realistic.

[@suchiuomizu]

The real question is how much of a connection did you feel with the family in the dwarf noble origin?

[@madhouse2594]

@@suchiuomizu I wanted to kill Trian. Does that count as a connection?

[@briandavi1]

Well I wouldn't expect the human noble to have much of a connection to a random family of city elves.

[@ryanc5572]

The way the elves are treated makes me sick. They don't deserve any of it

[@niamhcorrigan3972]

The least realistic thing here is Alarith, an ex-slave from Tevinter, trusting Tevinter mages who take people and you never see them again

[@Cx10110100]

double agent perhaps

[@raggedyanimator754]

I know, right?? I misremembered that he didn't trust them either but didn't want to speak out against them like Shianni (makes sense, given his former slave status), but hearing him go, "I don't understand what Shianni is so upset about. They're just trying to help." Mr Alarith, you should know better than anyone why they can't be trusted!

[@sebsebnubnub2299]

@@raggedyanimator754 probably knows how he was treated and decided to just lay low

[@burnedpotatoes720]

IKR? Maybe it is due to the unrest during the City Elf origi that he wants to avoid further trouble, but Alarith should know better that Tevinter and elves don't mesh nicely.

[@MURPHYCHACHO]

Poor Alistair sounds so worried when he hears about the wedding. Like he's expecting some pissed off elf guy to come storming up to try and punch him. Also, I've always been curious about how Papa Tabris would react to his kid's love interest. Warm and accepting or freaked out that his kid hooked up with a filthy shemlen (or, in Zevran's case, an assassin)?

[@NinjutsuNinjaQueen]

Aww after whoever you romanced comments on your previous arranged marriage and such, it would've been cool to have one of your cousins or your father comment on your choice in lovers. In fact I would've liked that for any warden from any origin story when they see their family again. It just would've been a nice touch >.

[@madhouse2594]

He would approve of Alistair and Leliana. But he'll disapprove Zevern and Morigan

[@nathanielperez9515]

It won't work for a human noble though sadly

[@rinraiden]

The City Elf is by far my favourite origin. It was my first playthrough, and the game just doesn't feel right when I pick different origins. My Warden, Darrian Tabris, is a red-haired, yellow-eyed elf. His cousins are Shianni and Soris. His father is Cyrion, and his mother's memory rests within Fang which he carries with him into battle. That's just the way it is.

[@camau79]

rinraiden Dalish warden is really cool, though you can make snide remarks about the chantry and the maker, one priestess calls you a heathen

[@KB-qk1ic]

It's more than a few years, more than few hundred years have passed.

[@Oldangr]

Kennith Betton It's been over a millenia since Tevinter (according to common knowledge) destroyed Elvhenan (which they didn't really as revealed in the Inquisition), I don't think modern-day city-elves would care much.

[@099Nitro]

Oldangr they Took apart what was left. And the Humans DID destroy the dales

[@099Nitro]

Which is the humans fault aswell. They would care if the Chantry didn't destroy everything after the exhalted march against the Dales.

[@rustyjones7908]

There is no H in exalted. Also the Dalish never knew their culture, they had forgotten long before the Dales, long before the Chantry, long before Tevinter. And honestly they were better off under all of them than they were under the Evanuris.

[@ahstiasummers5583]

I killed Rendon Howe as a city elf and when the option came up of "the city goes through arls pretty quickly" or something like that, Shianni was just "wow, it must be my nameday with all the gifts you've been giving me"

It's part of the story line.. right before the Landsmeet you are asked to inspect an issue in the Alienage. Once you figure it out you can go back there any time before the final battle.

Can't wait to see Morrigan again in Inquisition (if what I saw on the official site is anything to believe).

[@VenomQuill]

That main boss was morally worse than the Archdemon in my opinion. At least the Archdemon is doing was is right for his people! (The darkspawn) HE was evil, sure, but can you blame him? He's a corrupted god who looks after his army! Not some dude trying to bribe ELVES. ELVES!!

[@mim9000]

+Castalia Rayne (Cry Lovely Cry) Grey Wardens of Ferelden, I think, from the Nexus. There's an IA compatibility as well, but your mods have to be very neat and organized to get things going. Only problem is that it's starter armor received at Ostagar after the Joining, and there are no 'level' ups. :(

[@RappinPicard]

@@mim9000 you can buy upgraded versions at soldiers peak after you finish that DLC or you can upgrade it. Otherwise you get a set from a chest next to riordan in redcliffe castle after the Landsmeet. You can also get the warden commander armor from the darkspawn necromancer in the return to Ostagar dlc. In awakening you can just buy them from Herren.

You just have to love templars... one blood mage hurts human, SEND ALL TEMPLARS!!! Fifty blood mages kill and sell to slavery elves... nah they are fine.

[@gabrielledickinson4530]

Probably helps that Loghain was keeping it under wraps. I doubt the Denerim Chantry even knew about it.

[@incoRPG]

@@gabrielledickinson4530 Chantry works independently from city or county. It is still their fault.

[@AntiXaldin]

@@incoRPG How is it their fault when they had no idea what was going on? If the Warden brings up the plot in the Landsmeet, everyone is rightly outraged. What everyone had heard was that there was a riot in the alienage and a plague so it was being closed off. Do you expect the Chantry to send Templars anytime something happens just in case Tevinter has something to do with it?

[@incoRPG]

@@AntiXaldin yes it is their job. That would be like firemen don't check out smoke because it is not necessary a fire that is causing it.

[@AntiXaldin]

@@incoRPG But there's no smoke. It's not the Chantry's job to investigate everything that happens in a country on the off chance that something magical might be going on. Not to mention that with a Blight and a civil war happening, they probably had their hands full.

Wow.... saved me about 40 hours trying to get to this part with my city elf. I just did the origin to get the achievement.

[@thesixthkid7689]

Life is hard isn't it? At least if you choose other origins you can leave Vaughn in a cell. They should know 2 things as fact though. 1 The Blight is uncurable, becoming a Grey Warden only slows down the progress. 2 They say they came from Tevinter, who are from the North whereas the Darkspawn came from the South so how or why would they know or even care about anyone who does have the Blight?

[@777Krisztian]

As a fully aware Grey Warden i do believe that the best option is: Be a dwarf - that way help will be sent to the dwarves to battle the darkspawn at the end Make Hardened Alistair king with Anora, make Loghain warden, Die at the end or sacrofice Loghain - Do not let an Old God survive, he may cause problems in future, maybe even another Blight With Warden Commander kill the Architect, he also may be causing many problems, making darkspawn sane, more organised, more tactical, it's dangeorous. Second game: nothing freackin matters, but seriously, besides Mage-Templar thing this game has nothing to offer Inqusition: Sacrofice Hawke, it doesn't matter who is the Warden commander, he needs to live and get the Wardens together
