It was really disappointing picking Cullen thinking that him having the fastest time meant he was best suited for the job, as is the case in other games with similar features, only to find out that choice not only denied me the entire subsequent chain, but even being able to find out anything had happened to my clan at all. Since I tend to think of Dalish elves as likely wanting to return home after their adventure is over, this was a really poor turn of events. I would have liked for it to be a fully fledged quest that the characters all properly interact with and respond to.

Yo thanks for reminding me of this suck ass bad mission that sucked. The war table stuff was dogshit and bad in general. Looking back, Bioware games always had some unnecessary, tacked on gimmick that had no place in the game. Starting to wonder why I got invested in these games in the first place.

The human Inquisitor's noble background helped me a lot in dealing with having party members. Usually my RPG characters go it alone for fear of endangering others. But I figured that my Inquisitor, like most Medieval nobility, would've been raised to leadership in war. Therefore he was used to the idea of losing people under his command. Very different than, say, my Dragonborn from Skyrim. Also helpful was some early dialogue I picked: "I say we charge. Whatever happens, happens now." I didn't learn the family motto until later and I was pleased that my choice went along with that. I also had a habit of picking the nicest possible dialogue choice until it was time to fight. Then the verbal knives would come out along with the sword. (I loved pulling the rug out from Corypheus, after three straight choices of buttering him up, once the flare went up.) Also helpful was that I was watching the Korean fantasy series "Kingdom" at the time. The principal character in that series, a Prince whose first war proves to be a war against the Undead, would make a great Trevelyan.

Fr fr we’re well-respected nobles.

I think it was mentioned that the trevelyan was also a large clan like penthagasts that in one conversation with josephine after wicked hearts, she mentions that archon radonis and markus penthagast asking assistance for ventaori between the border and as trevelyan you could reason that you have family members also in nevarra and need to help both countries.

It’s so heart warming to think that Shale’s clan never forgot her!

The Lavellan questline is a bit tricky but I find if you read all the letters and advisors carefully you'll be okay. If the letters and your advisors directly advocate against a course of action, don't do it. Cullen is only appropriate for the final mission, protect Clan Lavellan and Wycome. And you can use him to Protect Clan Lavellan in the beginning. Otherwise it's *only* Josephine and Leliana and it's fairly clear which to use, because either the letter writers or one of the advisors themselves will advocate directly *against* a course of action.

And there's no way to overturn the Bannorn's refusal because they actually have absolute power over their lands and even have the power to overthrow the King. So yeah, Elves king of got fucked out of their supposed reward. In a similar vein the Circle of Magi's reward also got a big "nope" by the Chantry and the reward given to the city elves went to shit because Denerim citizens began fighting with the elves and a small conflict erupted, leading to the possible death of the appointed representative of the elves. In contrast in Inquisition you get an actual followup in Trespasser where Varric confirms that Clan Lavellan are still living in Wycome and Kirkwall are providing them protection so that the other Free Marcher cities don't take advantage of Wycome and the Clan.

I honestly really like the way Bioware handled the backstory in Inquisition. You have a little bit of information. Big enough to understand, where your Characters place is in this world, but big enough as well so you can create your own little backstory for your character around that ground structure :)

All of these diverging origins and yet all were able to find their way to the Divine and Corypheus, -,- I smell a Flemeth.

Regarding the pronouns used for the leader of Clan Lavellan - it's entirely possible that the Keeper is genderfluid, of course - but also possible that Lieutenant Rozellene Chambreterre knows nothing about Dalish social structures. The Lieutenant is probably human (therefore Andrastian) and clearly is military. The circumstances by which they met Clan Lavellan were rather violent, so I suspect the clan's warleader was involved. If the warleader was male that explains the Lieutenant's report to Cullen. They might not have recognized a mage as being someone who would hold a leadership role and may have mistakenly identified the Lavellan warleader as the de facto leader of the entire clan.

For the female Dalish elf I thought that it would also work because you have the connection to the Eluvian from Witch Hunt, the romance with Alistair, hardening him, making him rule Fereldan with Anora and breaking up with him, whether it be by sparing Loghain or just putting him on the throne and watching him end the romance, I think it makes a great parallel to the novel ‘The Stolen Throne’ which tells the story of how Loghain met King Maric (Alistair’s father), how their friendship went and the drama that came along with it, near the end (at least I think it’s the end) Loghain actually hardens Maric by making him end his romance with Katriel, Maric’s elven lover, obviously it’s different because Katriel was a spy working for the Orlesian’s and Maric killed her and you know how Origins can go. It also mirrors the novel because in said novel Loghain is romantically involved with Rowan, who would later become Maric’s wife and King Cailan’s mother, Loghain actually breaks their romance off and tells her that she needs to become Maric’s queen for the good of Fereldan, which can mirror the female elf making Alistair marry Anora. For DA2 the female rogue who romanced Anders works because Anders is the one companion in that game who doesn’t romance another companion, he’s attracted to Hawke right off the bat, after sleeping with him for the first time and asking him to move in he asks “would you tell the knight commander that you love an apostate and will stand beside him?” This question only makes proper sense if Hawke isn’t a mage, I feel like the warrior Hawke is more inclined to side with the Templar’s whereas the mage Hawke is more willing to side with the mages while the rogue Hawke is just stuck in the middle, which sums up Hawke pretty damn well in DA2’s story. The song ‘Mage Pride’ can apparently be seen as Anders’ theme song and it is sung from both Anders and Hawke’s perspectives, the pronouns are apparently female so it’s has Anders questioning why he and other mages are denied many rights and female Hawke is telling him that she loves him either way and that he should feel no shame for being who he is. Male mage Hawke romancing Isabela can work because the brotherly relationship or rivalry with Carver is pretty good and Carver becomes a much better character if Hawke seeks out his approval and friendship and gives him to the Grey Wardens. Plus the male mage was the one shown the most in the trailers and Isabela’s romance is one of my favourites. As for DAI, I think male warrior Trevelyan romancing Cassandra works as canon because Cassandra, Cullen and Solas don’t romance anyone else and Cassandra has the most plot significance to Inquisition’s story out of all the companions (the elven stuff isn’t the main focus of the story, sorry Solas). Female rogue Trevalyan romancing Cullen also works because being the herald of Andraste seems to flow best as a woman imo because Andraste was also a woman and because of the matriarchal nature of the Chantry which the Inquisition is directly tied to. Female Dalish elf romancing Solas may also work if we’re gonna bend the rules a bit here because of Solas’ major connection to the story and the whole tragedy of it, personally I think Solas’ friendship with a human is better but that’s just me.

Leila Wink You are very much welcome! Obviously BioWare want us to make our own personal canon’s for the story but certain bits just make much more sense than others, these were just a few conclusions that I came to after playing through each game multiple times and doing additional little bits of research and I think each one makes sense. Oh I also I missed out another potential canon Warden for Origins: a male warrior Dwarf Noble, this origin gives you the biggest connection to Orzammar, it makes the final choice between who should rule Orzammar that much better and the dwarves are the ones who fight darkspawn the most so why not have one take on the archdemon? Have fun influencing your friends with any findings you make in future playthrough’s!

Poor Lavallen. Why do the devs hate the Dalish lol? Oh all your Gods are real, and they are all horrible, wretched slaving assholes except for the Dread Wolf who still doesn't see you as like, a person (and if he does see you as a person your still not one worth saving) and also we're gonna just casually let your whole clan die with basically no recognition and through out the game everyone going to be shitting on you hard core for being Dalish, EPSICALLY your elf friends. Oh and speaking of your Elf friends if you romance either of them they will absolutely both dump you Solas, no matter what and Sera if you don't renounce your Gods for her, which, yikes. =(

I think they wanted to whitewash Tevinter a bit and realized that having Dorian as a companion may not actually suffice.

I say the keeper is gender fluid.

I'm not a patron stop calling me that. It OFFENDS ME. Jkjkjk

Knowing now that Dorian and Trevelyan are KINDA related, don’t think I could do a DorianXTrevelyan romance haha

she is female but is manily just called keeper so a dev most likely stuffed up the gender or maybe she is bi its never stated if she likes males or females but she does seem unique in most talks you have with her in origins and DA2

Wait wAit wait hold up. Shale is a she?!

Yup, it’s brought up multiple times in Origins’ party banter, plus in a conversation between Shale and the Warden.
