How long until Alistair realizes that Haven is still in Ferelden.

[@gaaraofthefunk7163]

Maybe it was claimed by the chantry as holy land? Like..the..vatican? LOL Therefore "off limits" XD

[@finmetalwarrior]

Not long, after that he sends a letter to the inquisitor that says something like: "I was surprised to hear that something wiped Haven off the map. Off *my* map."

[@steventrollz703]

Alistair *Sits on his throne thinking* "FUCK!"

[@kk28262484]

Alistair: (To Teagan) You should have seen how mighty and composed I am when I cast the mages off to the Inquisition! I am awesome! Teagan: This will explain why somebody inform me that part of Ferelden is cut off. Alistair: Wait, what? When did that happen? Teagan: Your majesty, I was recently informed that you have given Haven, which WAS part of your land, to the Inquisition. Alistair: ... Shit!

[@FandomEnforcer]

Famtomerc didn't he and the Hero go there in DA:O? Love the guy, but seriously.

[@finmetalwarrior]

King Alistair: -Has been the king of a bickering nation for 10 years, even though he never wanted to be king in the first place. -Slightly afterwards the mages and templars go nuts and start destroying his kingdom and killing his people. -Corypheus starts to plague all wardens with the false calling. Alistar, being a former warden is also constantly hearing the calling. -Then when he finds a way to help the opressed mages out of the deadlock, they end up kicking out his adoptive uncle and turning Ferelden's most important holding over to an invading Tevinter magister. I'm surprised he didn't start executing people on the spot after all the crap he's been through. xD

[@NRV0]

@Mackenzie Bauroth I understand why she didn't use that card to try and get him to let her and the mages to stay...But man did I just want her to!!! Seeing how more than likely he'll never know, with the many options of him and her dying and such.

[@johnmclellan2257]

@@NRV0 tbh if she played the "I'm your mom" card at Redcliffe it would have made things way worse, especially if it's in a world state where Anora and Alistair are married. Being elf-blooded is largely taboo in Thedas, and a king that's elf-blooded would be unacceptable. To be honest with the amount of information he has access to as king of Ferelden he probably already knows Fiona is his mother

[@carloreneeventura8714]

well, he's a tank, that's what he does

[@phosphoros3050]

@@johnmclellan2257 If Alistair bought into the idea that Goldanna was his mother, then he'd have no reason to investigate who his mother is/was since it appears to be an open & shut case in DA:O. Arl Eamon would also have no reason to contradict this belief (since Eamon had to help Maric devise a cover story there). Though Eamon would know that Goldanna wasn't really Alistair's mother, that wouldn't mean that Maric would have told him about Fiona. So aside from Fiona, Maric, Duncan, & the dead Wardens who accompanied them during "The Calling" expedition, only the Warden Silent Sister accompanying The Architect is a definite known witness that Maric & Fiona were lovers around 9 months before Alistair was born. I do wonder if OLB Kieran would be able to sense that Alistair is a half elf though.

[@Hjalmar_an_Craite]

@@phosphoros3050 He thought Goldanna was his sister, though.

[@TrippNessa]

As sad as I was to see Alistair respond so harshly to Fiona here, I completely understand. He even said himself that he'd wanted to help her originally, but when you come back to find your uncle's kingdom handed over to a Tevinter Magister that just tried to get everyone killed... I mean, I think he reacted pretty reasonably. He didn't try to execute her or any of her people, just sternly asked them to leave now, and he didn't try to interfere at all when your character offers them protection. That's a lot nicer than I would have been, had I been in his shoes...

[@mim9000]

TrippNessa Ali-Cat is a doll. :D ALL HAIL CHEEZ WARDEN KING!

[@theyincorporated5711]

TrippNessa I need to have some sympathy, Fiona is his mother after all

[@Just-A-Gamer1524]

He's definitely not as cold here than if Anora ruled with him.

[@danknerevarine3678]

@@theyincorporated5711 Alistair's maternal parentage MUST be kept secret. Elves are still very much pariahs, could you imagine what would happen if the Bannorn found out that he is of elven heritage? Calenhad's bloodline or no, the banns, arls, and teryns( or teryn, assuming if you offed Loghain, but Fergus still survives regardless of which origin chosen) would rise against him. in DA: The Calling, fiona and Maric agreed to keep this secret, I dont think Loghain, Eamon, Teagan, or Cailan knew of his maternal parentage. Kinda sucks to see him being oblivious, but then again he is kept in the dark abt this.

[@Danbutch24]

It's even more tragic when you know that she's his mother!

[@chemicalpoisons]

Seems Alistair not only grew in body, but in mind as well. He has fully embraced his place as king. Love him, to be honest.

[@JD-Media]

After 10 years I would hope so.

[@Leonnie13]

In one of his letters to the Inquisition you get a little glimpse of his former, endearing, goofiness.

[@catnoirlover1719]

​@@Leonnie13 wish we could see him like that in person though Can't blame him tho since he was dealing with The Calling too so can't blame him for being a bit Grumpy

[@mariosmatzoros3553]

​@@catnoirlover1719The calling plus ruling an entire nation, dealing with schemes, politics etc.

[@AndyG94]

To be fair, he is probably more grumpy that usual because he is hearing the Calling.

[@xemnas1997]

No, he was literally always like this in my games bitching about this and that, that's why I had him executed lol

[@Ketta139]

he's still got another ten years im pretty sure

[@mermpydermpy2047]

Joseph Whitaker HOW COULD YOU DO THAT

[@Doomin-c2m]

+missljean The wardens maintain a resistance to the taint for about 30 years, depending on the individual warden. Alistair went through the joining just few months before the hero of ferelden did, so he's still got 20 years before the calling, at least. Also, Fiona is alistair mother, and she used to be a grey warden until the taint just vanished from her body, so Alistar might even get rid of the taint completely at some point, especially since the hero of ferelden has abandoned the wardens in search of a cure to the taint.

[@Ketta139]

oh yea, forgot about that. for some reason i was thinking the timeskip was 20 years instead of 10 lol. Hopefully they do find a cure though, i just wanted a happy ending lmao

[@kiamaria331]

I played Inquisition first, so when Alistair arrived at Redcliffe (with Anora) I was just like 'Who's this guy? Oh the king, cool.' Now having played through Origins I'm kinda caught between an odd sort of pride like 'Look at my baby all grown up and ruling a nation' and feeling sad because with the whole Goldanna thing I know how much Alistair wanted a family and here he is facing his mother and he doesn't even know it.

[@francopanqueques612]

I fuck with him

[@147CinzaRato]

That's exactly why I became his queen.

[@elissahe2377]

Just wait until you learn that grand enchanter Fiona is Alistair's mother

[@SirPeterKozlov]

Wow Alistair turned out quite the ruler. I like how he's serious and straightforward now. Also, that woman was his true mother.

[@SirPeterKozlov]

There are books of Dragon Age. That elven lady was one of the lead characters. dragonage.wikia.com/wiki/Dragon_Age:_The_Calling

[@ZeriocTheTank]

No shit I was quite shocked at the end. I definitely don't regret hardening him & having him lead alone.

[@FlamesAndShadows]

Is he hardened?

[@Meggsie]

You can talk to her at skyhold and she asks about Alistair

[@Leonnie13]

@@bingus-kungus9436 Its covered in one of the Dragon Age books, The Calling.

[@watewmark]

[@crashpal]

***** "BECAUSE I'M BA......GRAY WARDEN"

[@yourGODLYhero]

I read that in in starwars character voices.

[@stretfordender321]

This is actually a fairly tragic scene when you consider how in the 1st game Alistair was so desperate to find a loving family. Now he meets his real mother (who does truly love him) and without knowing who she really is has to exile her from the kingdom

[@robinhood7293]

To be honest Fiona is a terrible Grand Enchanter and she is also incredibly stupid. Giving a hold that belongs to the King Warden that helped save Ferelded from the fifht blight, who is also his son? Fiona deserved to be butchered as she was during the assault to Haven.

[@TheAwesomeMed]

This scene hit alot harder when you find out he just banished his mother

[@Phantom508]

+TheAwesomeMed think of his stupid face when he will find out that he did banish his mother :)))....after playing DAO so much and reading the comics....i know Alistair pretty well...and im imagining Morrigan telling Alistair about Fiona...that scene...would be priceless....:))))

[@palamedes4740]

OMG SPOILERS THANKS

[@marcel870]

Wonder how long it took him to realize haven/skyhold are still in his kingdom

[@Aranelyn]

I don't understand why people are all "Alistair looks ugly" he's just more "realistic" and ten years older. Actually, I still find him really attractive. And of course...Cullen is sexier than before...for a simply reason...he is the one who can be romanced in this game. This is called "fanservice" xD

[@deniz3049]

i agree but still i think alistair looks hot af

[@nuriel1825]

Bioware needs to stop making hot ex-Templar characters.

[@biancavillanueva417]

The day they announce that they'll stop making ex-Templar babes is the day the Dragon Age series ends.

[@SweetrollThief11]

Oh god both of them became more attractive in DAI. From king bae grown up to ex Templar sexiness

[@Aranelyn]

+Nina Azara yes in Origins he was a little bit darker, but I won't call it a whitewashing, I mean, he always been a white man, as much as Cailan and Maric. Let's say in origins he had a sunbath :P

[@hardyreptiles1008]

I wonder if Alistair will ever find out that Fionas actually his mom. That'd be interesting to see

[@SelphieFairy]

they totally gave him cullen's hair.

[@thecircus2367]

I suppose if you want a jackboot, you get a big one so you can grow into it. Nice hair, though.

[@jesseg.2413]

Maybe it's an ongoing fashion trend? XD

[@rsweeneybrg]

"Yo, the king has a nice haircut. Guess I gotta have it-"

[@cakes4494]

I also remember Alistair mentioning how he has "a weird obsession with his hair" so it would make sense that when Cullen's hair went from being a curly mess to the controlled locks he has now we can assume it was because he got more aware of his appearance and the current style. Alistair has always cared about his hair and is king so when he noticed to new trend he obviously got the hair cut to replace his more childish hair from before. Just a little headcannon theory of mine.

[@aoibhealfae]

she looked so heartbroken at the end.....

[@ElementXCod]

Well Fiona is Alistair's REAL mom.

[@darkdesigns]

SilverSkull12 ...I had heard people had said Alistair's mother was an elf and a mage... but I wasn't aware that it was Fiona they were referring to. 0o That actually makes a lot of sense now. ***Spoilers*** I remember she kept asking about him, even though claiming she didn't know him - and seemed heartbroken after he sacrificed himself in the Fade.

[@rosemarymadelein5]

SilverSkull12 I bet he didn't know about his elvhen heritage.

[@spalenzagabriel]

@@rosemarymadelein5 she made Maric promise Alistair would be protected from the prejudice of his elven blood, the prejudice of being a royal bastard and to be raised in the most normal possible way, since being a Grey Warden is no position to raise a kid. Her wish for Alistair actually came true, raised by dogs and playing around Redcliff until he’s all covered in mud (like his dad) without a trouble caused by royal or elven blood until he was 10 and the Arlessa screwed everything. Thanks Uncle Duncan for interfering later on.

[@ema387]

i donno why you people are all...''Alistair is a dick...that's his mother'' he doesn't fucking know that and he's continuing to be a good king. Now i don't know this scene but i can tell he felt betrayed by the very mages he was trying to help in the second game of course he was going to be pretty pissed. Atleast he didn't send them to be executed.

[@DingusMeridius]

damn right.

[@bingus-kungus9436]

true

[@DragonHeart613]

Emaria CJuice Amen finally someone else here with common sense. You are a 100% right on the money my friend :)

[@jeep3r]

She should have been kicked out or put out of her misery long time ago, regardles of the fact that she's his mother, several reasons come to mind, like the fact that she prevented the calling for herself but doesn't share the secret with the rest of the wardens...always liked Alistair,and now that he's more mature and responsible he's rather "imposing"

[@DingusMeridius]

you sir,seem to enjoy making sense

[@hrafni]

1:57 uuuuuuuuuuuugh knowing fiona is alistair's mother, and she loves him dearly and just seeing him exile her like that... breaks my heart

[@AndyG94]

THIS!

[@andrewvincent7299]

It's also sad because Fiona never intended for Alistair to be King. She wanted him to live a life free of politics. With her believing Maric as dead and now Alistair having the burden of being King, it must break her heart.

[@spalenzagabriel]

@@andrewvincent7299 the burden of royalty, the prejudice of being half-elf, the “Wardens aren’t Parent material”... This “some matters are too important for someone like me” Alistair inherited from her. He used to think the burden of leadership was something too big for him and passed to someone “more worthy of doing the right thing” just like she did with parenting him, being a warden, mage, elf and mother to a royal bastard, she had that same insecurity and so believed he would be better being just a regular orphan.

[@Blackemperess]

SPOILERIFIC JOKE AT AL'S AND FIONA'S EXPENSE Inquisitor: Hey Fiona, I left some guy called Alistair to die in the fade against a spider monster. Hawke's safe though. Fiona: O_O

[@Macder10]

They should have made a scene where fiona fireblasts you through the wall if you made that choice.

[@Blackemperess]

Macder10 Ironically, I cant stand Hawke. While more down to earth in Inquisition, DA2 left too much of a bad impression for me to ever even consider choosing their dumb ass over a character I adore. I'd opt for Alistair every time unless it's Stroud, in which case, he gets ditched instead.

[@Macder10]

Blackemperess gotta low how every player can basically leave stroud without a sense of remorse X D. I know DA2 wasn;t nearly as good as DAO. but hawke was a good character i invested several hours in his personality. im not going to make an iconical MC dissapear. would only ditch hawke if it was hero of ferelden vs hawke.

[@missbexiee]

Macder10 I could NEVER abandon Hawke... I have him and Anders romanced and holy shit that relationship is such a hot mess the pair of them need to stay alive and help each other. He's just been through so much shit in his life. In terms of Alistar, I have him with my Warden as King and Queen. It would be heartbreaking for them to ever depart from one another but I think they're way more mentally stable and able to accept things like that than Hawke and Anders would be. Well, that's my thoughts on it anyways. :)

[@Macder10]

missbexiee but what if u had to choose between hero of ferelden vs hawke?

[@bruva207]

I'm still playing hoping to hear the "swooping is bad" quote somewhere in the game...

[@HaydenAllastor]

Varric says it in an idle dialogue to Sera I believe when you're out in the world: "Don't you know? Swooping is bad!"

[@PlanetLovingMom]

In Inquisition? I don't think he says it. He does say it in Origins and in DA2, though 🤣

[@chelly3452]

Am I the only who is actually okay with the way they made Alistair look? lol

[@Ayahime0]

Wait, wait, wait. Fiona is Alistair's mother? I think I need to do a little more reading when I pick up papers in Inquisition.

[@peoplemcnuggetz]

You mean the fucking novels?

[@Ayahime0]

peoplemcnuggetz the novels? Oh that.

[@peoplemcnuggetz]

Nancy Lo haha yea, they're really long.

[@joshuacarpenter7447]

I thought Alistair said his mom was dead in Origins

[@heckyeah4314]

That was a lie Eamon told him. Bad enough the heir to the throne is a bastard but if he was elf-blooded people would never stand for it.

[@ost1124]

I don't know if Alistair is slowly turning into Cullen or if it is the other way around....

[@celineae4518]

as long as he don't turn into Samson

[@dranzerjetli5126]

Cullen was a douche bag in origins. He really really mellowed out in inquisition

[@LuizAntonio-zs7ko]

And no Anora bitch on his side. Good on you.

[@Pheonixfirestar]

OMG I thought I was the only one thinking THAT!!! XD

[@nightfrost1891]

I still think it's kind of bull that after this Alistair asks for all these favors on the war table and you STILL don't get to even talk to him. This isn't even a conversation it's just Alistair yelling at Fiona / rebel mages to leave. Hell, Hawke got to talk to him longer in DA2 in EVERY scenario longer than this. You get to talk to him if he becomes a Grey Warden but the price to pay with that is steep. It would be nice to hear him reminiscing about the Hero of Ferelden or talking about his love. Idk it just feels stupid that if you choose any of the male love interests you don't get to hear them talking about their relationships. Hell, Zevran isn't even in the game. Only Grey Warden Alistair will give any juicy deets and like I said before, that's a big nope. The Hero of Ferelden's note helped a bit but.... sigh.

[@hirukairi]

I've been looking for this! Too bad they make no mention of Queen Cousland. Morrigan mentions the warden's whereabouts if she was romanced.... feeling a little jealous that I have no idea what's happened to my warden.

[@TrAdErInSpAiN]

They did. Talk to Lelliana. My Female Warden became queen with maxed friendship ( not romance) with Lelliana and she said she lost contact with the Hero Of Ferelden. I think it's about 1hour into the game when u talk to her outside of the Chantry in Haven beside the Quartermasters.

[@hirukairi]

Arthur Wellesley hmmmm well I can't play the game so I'm stuck watching videos of other people playing the game, but I meant more than "we lost touch" I think it's rather strange that a Queen goes missing and no one mentions anything about it (or at least from what I've seen)

[@TrAdErInSpAiN]

Ellie I think she goes missing because she went to the deep roads. it had been more than 10 years since the fifth blight and blight wardens succumb to the taint faster if im not wrong

[@justin1594]

not everyone had queen cousland, it depends on what you import

[@hirukairi]

Justin Barrett I was talking specifically about this video. In Fluffy's world state the warden is queen cousland. Arthur Wellesley If you watch the video where the inquisitor talks to Morrigan about the warden, and the warden was in a relationship with her she'll mention that he's off trying to find a cure for the calling so I imagine that the female warden would be doing something similar.

[@JackSpad3s]

i don't know how I feel about Alistair, he definitely looks older

[@sinlawson991]

It's 10 years after the blight, He certainly isn't 21-22 anymore

[@sinlawson991]

Cullen is younger than Alistair by 3 -4 years,Alistair would be 31-32 Cullen would be 28-29 because when Cullen came to the circle in fereldan he was 18-19 and think about the stress Alistairs been through xD I Personally think Cullen looks older in D.A.I.

[@sinlawson991]

Yeah they should have and Maybe Cullen did during his time in fereldan and thats why he actually looked pretty damn good looking in part 2 xD

[@sinlawson991]

I would have been playing since yesterday but sadly i Couldn't pick it up. Can't wait to play!

[@sinlawson991]

First romance will be Cullen xD ive been waiting for 4 years to have that option

[@jonetgames]

I soo totally love Alistair's new design. When he showed up in game, I was like, is that... could it be... no way...??? (Didn't recognize him at first) Then Fiona said King Alistair and I squeeled lol. Took me a while to get used to it. I even reloaded a previous save and redid the battle with Alexius so that I could see Alistair again lol. Damn, he got even sexier, didn't think it was possible. The years have been kind. :3 o3o Wish I could say the same about Anora and Loghain. Especially Anora, she's only like 38 but looks ancient like 60 LOL :P

[@aranecek]

@@EmoBearRights went full terrorist is way beyond “bad decision”, clearly he was talking about Daisy.

[@GavnerWinterLuver]

He’s so much more himself here without Anora. A good, strong leader that is unwilling to compromise with people who betrayed his trust, but so much less harsh than the cameo with Anora

[@ethosterros9430]

Yea anora definitely poisons him. Honestly she's a terrible person, her only concern is power and control and it shows how she treats the hero of ferelden even willing to betray him multiple times, and how just being around her alistair becomes so much more bitter. it's funny cuz cailan was a jolly guy likely because he spent most of his time away from the castle.

[@eji]

Hmm... I wonder if that means we won't see Alistair at all if we had the ending where he remained a grey warden with our Warden? :(

[@legndofphoenix]

You see him alright, but you wont like the outcome of that choice.

[@johnjacob6163]

Legend of Phoenix yeah talk about a tough choice, probably the hardest in the game for me

[@darkdesigns]

luke baker I sat staring at the screen for the longest time with that one. I swear I felt my heart break after I finally decided. :\

[@Aliens1337]

If Alistair remained Warden/died, I think Logaihn showed up.

[@darkdesigns]

Did he show up in your playthrough? That is kind of interesting - didn't know Loghain was in the game at all. Though Alistair does not remain a warden if you spare Loghain. He will either leave the order (and become a drunk), claim the throne, or be executed. ;) As for what happens if Alistair is a Warden - Anora shows up.

[@operatorenabla8398]

I've just finished to read The Calling. This cutscene has changed so much for me in so little time

[@charlottepitt7808]

Something that occurred to me, Alistair would have been hearing the calling. That entire situation would have been possibly quite stressful for him

[@indv11]

I keep throwing my money at the screen but I still don't have it yet. What am I doing wrong?

[@GeoGosha]

Supporting the moneygrubbing corrupted game developer who uses PC damaging DRM

[@Pheonixfirestar]

Now now Alistair that's no way to talk to your mommy ;) xD i wish I could reunite them in the game hopefully in the next game

[@anorawalker441]

Weighing in on the general discussion: He's also probably recalling another certain act of betrayal that has him a bit less likely to be receptive to working with Fiona. And, remember, too, that she's an elf. He likely wouldn't even consider the possibility that she's his mother just because he has no reason to believe he's a half elf at all. To my knowledge, all the people that knew are dead with possibly the exception of Teagann.

[@marcosamell96]

Is that his only cameo if you make him king?

[@ridinghorseface5678]

No, if he stays a warden, hes there too and helps you in the fight against the warden mages

[@vicknikkole]

I actually think he looks really handsome in this game. Kinda shiny but handsome. Wish we got to see more of him though

[@kittyblue5086]

ALISTAIR!!!!! I'm so hooked on your videos right now!

[@Cdc321]

Why does it seem like everyone just kind of glosses over the fact that Fiona made a really stupid decision, no matter how desperate it might have been? I can’t think of a single reason why anyone would think that the mages throwing themselves in with the Tevinter Imperium would be a good idea.

*mages go to haven* "one way or another, you're leaving my kingdom" oh alistair.... some things never change

[@jimmylittle9393]

did everyone but me know Fiona was his mother?

[@HamanKarn567]

Origins is still the best in the series imo so always nice to see those characters return. They need to bring back Sten and Ohgren already as well.

[@emilyn609]

The dark circles under his eyes are what make him look a bit older. Other than that, he looks so much better than I actually expected.

[@demongal107]

FINALLY SOMEONE ON HERE ALLIES WITH THEM INSTEAD OF IMPRISONNG THEM!

[@loniitv4948]

Jennifer lol i picked to have them as allies 2, i can never make mean choices in games😖

[@swahini]

i know the games are worlds apart but couldnt they have tried harder to make alistair look like his origin self?

[@Geri2033]

I would kick Alistair in the ass for talking to his mother like that....of course he doesn't know who Fiona is,but still....

[@TaliZorah1]

by the look on Fiona's face I think she knows whom he is look how startled she is

[@Geri2033]

lol I just noticed a typo in my comment FACEPALM

[@Geri2033]

Geri2033 fixed.

[@bladerj]

What ? i dont remember much of DAO but wasnt his mother human and DEAD ? or you mean step mother ? if this is his mother he would be a hybrid

[@Geri2033]

no,his mother isn't human. it has been confirmed that Fiona is his mother

[@silverferalgaming8548]

Alistar looks different mainly because it has been 10 years since the blight ended.

[@anny5239]

knowing that fiona is his mother and this is one of their only interactions we see between them is sad :(

[@Saerise]

He's such a fun character, I just wish we got to see him more in Inquisition. He makes me laugh so much, and his mutual hatred with Morrigan.

[@steffent.6477]

Why are the kings guards unarmed?

[@mitchellmarshall7002]

Wow, Alistair actually looks good! A bit older, but that's to be expected.

[@HierophanticRose]

He should have said "I cannot let a group of Free Mages swoop into one of my holds..."

[@xenon8117]

“Yes. Swooping is bad.”

[@Ship-security]

Why don't the King's Guard have weapons?

[@TaliZorah1]

damn Alistair grew a backbone

[@dflynn6138]

cant say i blame him id be pissed off too

[@TaliZorah1]

d flynn more now than in Origins and yeah im suprised he did not execute those mages everyone in Ferelden must be wanting there blood by now

[@dflynn6138]

Talizorah'vas' 'Normandy' cant he just take it back he has a army

[@suwatsaksri7191]

Of course he needs a backbone, his wife killed the Archdemon after all

[@VaultGirl684]

Awww where's cousland?😣

[@kaiju1281]

Fiona looks so heartbroken. She never saw Alistair all these years, never spoke to him, but you can see that she loves him nonetheless. And it really, really pains her to hear how her son speaks to her.

[@Yukaeshi]

I think one of the reasons why King Alistair makes no mention of the Hero of Ferelden in Inquisition (Especially if the HoF is Queen/in a romance with King Alistair), is because the player doesn't get a chance to interact with King Alistair and ask him about the HoF if he is King. I believe that the story goes the same as if it's Warden Alistair- that the HoF and his love have gone off to seek a cure for the Calling, regardless of whether she is queen or not, and that his feelings for her is just the same as the Warden Alistair scenario. It's just that Warden Alistair is accessible to the player in Inquisition so they get to talk and he gets to tell them about her. It's referenced in the Codex entry in Inquisition: dragonage.wikia.com/wiki/Codex_entry:_A_Letter_from_the_Hero_of_Ferelden Also, Alistair IS King of Ferelden in Bioware canon.

[@tsukikage3941]

Alistair - the standing example of an HD remaster gone wrong.

[@ChokyDaWerehusky]

It was Cruel, to find out that Alistar has not the Same Voice ( In German). I just stood there like...'' Who are you and where is the real alistar''

[@katxheartgaming]

I really don't like how Alistair looks in this game. They got it right in DA:O. Should a stuck with it. Cullen on the other hand just kept getting better looking.

[@gozzythebat]

This is even more sad if your warden is a Mage I imagine Alistair offered shelter for the mages because he thought about the warden, especially if they are in a romance. Also one of the boons in origins, the warden can ask for the mages to have more freedom. In a way the mages squandered this gift the hero of fereldan gave them :(

[@UOHCUNY]

Only 2 minutes of him? Come on bioware.

[@xenon8117]

0:35 King Alistair! Where?! I don’t see him, why are you lying? In what world is that Alistair? He looks nothing like him. At least DA2 just made him look like a crappy version of himself, now this is a different person entirely.

[@lettucecat3538]

one question where is anora in here? or was it the hero of ferelden the queen in this one?

[@FluffyNinjaLlama]

+Khajiits & Aobas Yes, the HoF is the Queen here, it's the same if Alistair rules alone. I have Alistair and Anora version here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/j6KUYqiClrGLga8 And Anora alone version here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/mHvUYZeggZioptE She's married to the HoF, but it's the same if she rules alone.

[@ridinghorseface5678]

@@FluffyNinjaLlama Wait, HOW is Anora married to the HoF. please explain?

[@Egilkallig]

@@ridinghorseface5678 A male human noble HoF can marry Anora in DA:O.

[@NRV0]

Haha you know whats funny? I just thought that technically, Fiona, who is an elf, has the title of "Queen Mother of Ferelden". I'm sure a lot of human nobles would get a kick outta that lol

[@AsteroidalApogee]

wonder how long it will take Alistair to realize Skyhold is still in Ferelden

[@josephsimmons9202]

I'd take that offer if I were you...one way or another you're leaving my kingdom. King Alistair got that ice water running in his viens. Love it! 💪

[@samflood5631]

FYI, Alistair is wearing the same armor he wore in the Dragon Age Comic book series where he teams up with Varric and Isabella to find his dad.

[@clowTM]

You read "the calling" and suddenly this breaks your heart. It also seems like the most canon way to do things xp for what that matters

[@kingalistair3729]

I look ravishing in 1080p.

[@T13HS]

It's so stupid that if you made Alistair king, you only get to see him if you side with the stupid mages. Bad decision by Bioware.

[@ВладиславШаклеин-ч7м]

Alistair was always a bit naive, and so are supporters of 'mage freedom'. So no, it does make perfect sense.

[@airmanbunny9767]

NoU

[@MadastheHatter13]

He doesn't sound like a king, he sounds like a health food store clerk.

[@lydiadiangelo2588]

Bunch of people saying they'd have imprisoned or killed them if they were in his shoes until you find out that Grand Enchanter Fiona is Alistair's mother.

[@gracchen2500]

bro what'd they do to my boi. I had to use all kinds of mods to try and make him look like alistair lol. still not quite with the greasy hairs of all dai characters.

[@jonetgames]

When Fiona lowers her head at the end, my heart breaks. Ouch, Alistair. If only you knew the pain you caused your mom (although she kind of deserved it).

[@akemus9788]

Glad I made him king in Origins. He is the right choice after all.

[@burzhillion1]

Is the music playing in the background here on the official soundtrack included with the game?

[@gladwearenotbald]

Is anybody else having problems with the world state in their game? Because in mine Anora showed up at this point as well, as the queen, even though I didnt play it that way. And there's other small random changes that I didn't choose as well. Is it a glitch?

[@aliceinsherlockland]

On a less serious note that most of these comments - Still can't quite grasp why Alistair looks so hot in this scene and true to his original design in Origins, but so weird when he's the Warden. My guess is that the lighting plays a big part in that. Here, in the darkened room, he has a complexion matching his original design. However, as a Warden seen in plain sight, he's weirdly pale and has ginger hair. In general, you can then see more clearly that most of his features are not Alistair-y. And yes, I know that they tried to make him look more realistic, but still, Warden Alistair doesn't work for me. But hey it's probably just the fact that I love his character so much, that any differences are a break of immersiveness for me 🤷‍♀️

[@moniquita720]

And to think, he doesn't know its his mom.

[@nej5201]

I was happy to see Alistair. Only to learn I wouldn't because I saved the Templars.

[@TheManMostMysterious]

What if Alistair is neither King nor Warden? Does he appear at all if he became a drunk? I was hoping to get a good story of him getting back on his feet in DA:I after hitting rock bottom in DA2.

[@nichtdiejeniche3845]

No.

[@TeddieSage1987]

Does the Drunk Alistair make an appearance in this game as well?

[@XLucifernemesisX]

I've been scouring and I can't find anything about it anywhere! I guess I'll have to make a save file that has him and try to find him myself. If anyone has a link with drunk Alistair in DA:I to save me many hours, that would be great.

[@daasbuffy]

The first time I was introduced to the Chargers, my first thought was that "Grim" was a stand in for drunk/exiled Alistair, but that doesn't appear to the case.

[@Rorschachinstein]

Didn't think Alistair rocked his own personal royal bodyguard of dread. He seemed like such a happy king DA2

[@SloweBro99]

Alistair was was nicer than I would have been in his shoes. He finally gets a foothold in giving mages out of their life of oppression in the circle, just for them to stab him in the back and trust some insane jackass who takes over his family's land.

[@shadowstar9775]

i'd like to see if you can see the grey warden beside Alistair, or even Anora with the grey warden. that be cool. guess i'll have to find out for myself once i get the game. can't wait for this month to be over. i'll be getting paid and finally get my 55inch screen t.v. paid off for, to get a new computer and some games. and Dragon age inquisition is on the top of my list. i just hope i can find a good windows 8 gaming computer for a good price. the computer i'm using now is getting old and will shut itself off, or the screen goes black saying no signal, and have to wait a while before turning it on again otherwise it will say no signal on start up. and it only does this when playing games. i'm always constantly saving, after a conversation or after something happening, or in a new area. its annoying.

[@greatkingkongxx]

Who was fiona again I don't remember

[@soren7550]

Apparently, his real mother (the elf lady).

[@MrJordwalk]

and also, more notably the first Grey Warden to free herself from the Calling.

[@MyKeyMoonShine]

She was in The Calling and Asunder. She became Grand Enchanter of the circle of Magi and now she leads the mage rebellion.

[@DragonHeart613]

@Alex Morales, Fiona is a character first introduced in the Dragon Age novel The Calling by series lead writer David Gaider. She's a mage Grey Warden who in the book served alongside The Warden & Alistair's Grey Warden mentor Duncan as they adventured together with Alistair's legendary father King Maric in the story's events during which Fiona & Maric fell in love but were forced apart due to their responsibilities as Grey Warden & King of Ferelden respectively but not before years later she revealed the birth of their son Alistair & Fiona made Maric vow to her that Alistair would never know that his real mother is Elven on account that anyone related to Elves or has Elven blood & lineage in them are viewed as scum by everyone else which she feared. She ultimately left The Grey Wardens & found a way to avoid the eventual doomed fate that befalls all Wardens rising to become leader of all the mages. Hope that helps & answers your questions. Read the books they're great :)

[@sofidrake7513]

If you married Alistair and became Queen does he mention you? Because he did in DA:II but I'm sure in DA:II it said that the Hero of Ferelden had gone missing.

[@FluffyNinjaLlama]

This one is married to the Warden so no, he doesn't mention her.

[@demonangel918]

+FluffyNinjaLlama Andraste's ass, Bioware! Ughhhhhhhh. Mention my warden damn it!

[@CelesteFallenAngel]

+FluffyNinjaLlama So does Alistair appear in the game at all if he's kind and the Warden is queen?

[@FluffyNinjaLlama]

+Atticus Turner Yes, here, and that's all.

[@CelesteFallenAngel]

Thanks for answering! (Not sarcasm, sorry if it sounds that way).

[@meglee9533]

Is this really Alistair's only appearance? I almost missed it when I was playing the game. There was no power behind it, no Alistair humour, nothing. I was so disappointed. He's the bloody King of Ferelden (in a large number of people's games, that is.) and needed more than just "oh, let's kick out Fiona now." and she's meant to be his mother, right? No build up to it, nothing. I'm so royally pissed right now.

[@joshuacarpenter7447]

I didn't know that was his mom until reading the comments. Wowzers

[@ellie7200]

It breaks my heart to see Alistair and Fiona talking to each other with him being completely unaware of the fact that she's his mother

[@MissSharkmuffins]

WHAT HAPPENED TO ALISTAIR WHERES THE CUTE HAIR IT IS MISSING

[@SerafinaStarstrider]

I think this confirms that Alistairs hair is supposed to be strawberry blonde. In the first one his hair seemed to be strawberry blonde but it was hard to tell and then in the second it looked more of a honey blonde and now it's back to strawberry blonde.
