I usually just look up names on dwarven generators, I'm terrible at making up names.

That's what I did, too. Of course, I had to keep cycling until I found one I liked so I ended up with Aunn Aeducan.

Plus I can see that this helps to inspire ideas for those who like to write fanfic!

I know I'm inspired, for better or for worse. Image IPB

Wish I'd found this thread sooner. AHEM. I hardly ever do anything but lurk on this entire damned forum.
I have no words for how much I love DA dwarves. Can't do it, don't want to do it :) Currently figuring out a decent character for the Aeducan female origin, playing through many emotionally unstable Brosca females, one Aeducan male with a heart of gold and a bit too much trust those around him. It just doesn't fare well for politics, does it? :P
Getting into the idea of formulating an interesting Kader, though it may take some time for me!
On the subject of Gorim, though, all these dialogue trees are wonderful. I am in awe of your dedication of Orzammar, Gilsa! Though I must admit, when I get into the mindset of my various Lady Aeducans, all I want is a slap Gorim mod.
You have no idea. Or maybe you do ;)

LOL. One of you ladies needs to offer sexual favors to Charsen so maybe he'd do a femAeducan and Gorim kiss scene although I have no idea where that trigger would be. The prison parting kiss was lame! =p

I'd settle for sex scenes at the Pearl and replacing the default dwarf model with Gorim or Leske. GAA-ROW!! :devil:

Or adding a kiss when you meet him Post-Coronation. I'm really considering learning about the toolset to add some extra lines at the Post-Coronation and change the epilogue to Gorim and femPC getting married....

But that's just a wish. If wishes were fishes lol

It would be kind of difficult to kiss between the bars. Maybe before you leave your room at the beginning of the Origin? That's the only time you're alone together aside from when you first set out for the Shield of Aeducan and making out during that would be kind of artifial, I think. Not to mention not safe given that something could jump out at you at any moment.

That might be kind of awkward, though...

Gorim: I can't wait to get back home to Orzammar.
DN: I can't believe I'm about to ask this but...what about your wife? Is she okay with moving?
Gorim: Oh, she never made it out of Denerim so she and my unborn child are dead.
DN: I see...so, you said you wanted your old position back, huh? Does that include the benefits?

I need to grow a penis first for that.... He's doing Zevran/F!Dwarf kiss scene which I'll no doubt blub like a girl to as I watch it on Missa's playthrough. Because OH GOD IT IS MY OTP LEAVE ME ALONE OKAY

Aaw man, I think Leske/Gorim are pretty boys too... Just, you know... as long as they don't speal.

My Brosca was named Norala, but she is in Delete Heaven:innocent:

My Aeducan that I'm playing is named Bolana. I usually just look up names on dwarven generators, I'm terrible at making up names.

Same. Gilsa came from a dwarven name generator, too. I liked it enough to keep using it for various games.

Now Maude ... she's named after the most fabulous, most sarcastic woman to ever grace the boob tube -- Bea Arthur. If she's not a Brosca, I don't know who is!

Lady Godiva was a freedom rider,
she didn't care of the whole world looked.
Joan of Arc, with the lord to guide her,
she was a sister who really cooked.
Isadora was a first bra burner
Aint' ya glad she showed up?
And when the country was falling apart
Betsy Ross got it all sewed up

Let's see:

Melvin - My magnificent bastard of a noble.
Uldina - Bitter commoner that ended up falling for Alastair (well, my first female so I was kind of curious too)
and
Breckin - One half of my imagined bud-duo with my balding 21 y.o mage Leonin. Sees surfacers as a curious people and has to deflect being come on too by Leli, Morri and Zev despite having no interest in tall people. Age is 28 despite any lore damnit!

Both commoners fiercely protective of Rica, though Uldina is more resigned about it.

Edit: rest of dwarves hardly left their origins.

Yeah, I know, there really isn't a place to appropriately share a kiss with Gorim anyway. We shall live in fanart.



There is a guy who is working on a mod for sex scenes at the Pearl. Crazy sense of humor, but he plans on including dwarves.

THE ULTIMATE SACRIFICE
(Note: We strongly do not recommend killing off dwarves. The following is only so you can fantasize about your own funeral and who would show up for it. Sobbing wenches with heaving bosoms throwing themselves at your sexy corpse is optional.)

ALISTAIR GIVES SPEECH
1."My friends, we are gathered here to pay our respects to the Grey Warden that saved us all." (VO: A speech given to a crowd of people, he is delivering an eulogy for someone he cared about deeply.)
2. "She/He gave her life to destroy the Blight, a sacrifice we must never forget."
3. "It was no accident that she/he was there, either. She/he was special, and each of us has had our life touched by her in some way."

4. (IF: Alistair_InLove) "I... I thought we would be together forever." (VO: his speech falters here as emotion gets the better of him)
4. (IF: Alistair_Still_InLove) "There was a time when I thought... we would be together forever." (VO: his speech falters here as emotion gets the better of him)
4. (IF: Zev_OR_Lel_InLove) "Some of us were friends, companions... some of us even loved her/him." (VO: He looks towards someone in the crowd who loved the departed dearly and feels bad for them --   *cinematic note -- need to focus on Zev/Lel in crowd, show his/her emotional reaction)
4. (IF: Alistair_Hardened) "She/He put me on this throne, and showed me how important it was I be here." (VO: very sad)
4. (IF: Alistair_nochange) "She/He even put me on this throne, despite my protests. But there was no telling her no, right?" (VO: wry sadness here, as he never wanted to be king, but now he's doing his best)

5. (IF: Conscripted_ByDuncan) "She/He didn't choose to be a Grey Warden, but she/he still went to her/his death willingly. How do you properly honor someone like that?"
5. (IF: Joined_Willingly) "The Grey Wardens couldn't have asked for anyone finer. How do you properly honor someone like that?"

6. "The Grey Wardens are building a magnificent tomb at Weisshaupt, right next to Garahel's, but I'd like to do something as well."

***(GO TO THE AEDUCAN OR BROSCA SECTION AND THEN COME BACK HERE TO FINISH THE REST OF THE SPEECH)***

7. Let all know that the arling of Amaranthine, once the land of Arl Howe, is now granted to the Grey Wardens. (VO: Turns and addresses this to the crowd)
8. There they can rebuild, and hopefully live up to this example.
9. Friends, let us hope that she/he has gone on to a better place and that she/he knows just how thankful we are for what she/he has done here. (VO: Giving eulogy to crowd about someone he cared about)

10.(IF: Alistair_RomanceActive) You will be missed. More than I can possibly say. (Giving eulogy to large crowd about someone he loved -- here his voice breaks with emotion)
10. (IF: Alistair_Friendly_Warm) You will be missed, my friend. By us all.
10. You will be missed. Fare you well.
*END*

------------------------------------------------------

AEDUCAN ULTIMATE SACRIFICE
Alistair/Anora: "Gorim of House Aeducan, please step forward." (VO: speaking to a large crowd, calls out someone to step forward for a special honor)
Alistair: "You were the Grey Warden's manservant?"
Anora: "I understand you were the Grey Warden's manservant."
Gorim: "I was, until he/she was exiled from Orzammar. I was quite sorry to see him/her go." (VO: sad)
Alistair: "I understand that the king has asked for the body to be sent back to Orzammar?" (VO: Solemn)
Anora: "I am told that the king has asked for the body to be sent back to Orzammar?"
Gorim: "Well, no disrespect meant but we don't burn our dead. We bury them in the ground, return them to the Stone." (VO: Hesitant, trying to be diplomatic)
Gorim: "And the king says that he's/she's to be buried in Orzammar next to his/her father, as an Aeducan. All honors restored." (VO: Hesitant, trying to be diplomatic)
Alistair: "That's good. I've spoken with your king. Ferelden will be sending men to help keep the darkspawn at bay. We won't ignore the dwarves any longer."  (VO: solemn)
Anora: "That's good. I've spoken with your king. Ferelden will be sending men to help keep the darkspawn at bay. We won't ignore Orzammar's plight any longer."
Gorim: "Glad to hear it, your Majesty." (VO: relieved)


BROSCA ULTIMATE SACRIFICE
Alistair/Anora: "Rica, please step forward." (VO: speaking to a large crowd, calls out someone to step forward for a special honor)
Alistair/Anora: "You are the Grey Warden's sister, yes?"
Rica: "I am. Still funny hearing you call her/him that. I always knew she/he was bound for greatness, but this..." (VO: Awkward, she's not used to big crowds.)
Alistair/Anora: "I understand that the king has asked for the body to be sent back to Orzammar?" (VO: Solemn)
Rica: "To be buried, returned to the Stone. Not burned, like you humans do it. No offense." (VO: direct -- then she remembers at the end that she's talking to a king)
Rica: "The Assembly is considering Paragon-hood. And that means a burial in Orzammar with all honors. Paragon! Can you believe it?" (VO: Astounded)
Rica: "My son will have his own clan one day. Mother was so shocked, she's gone sober. Miracles abound, apparently." (VO: amused by it all)
Alistair: "I'm glad to hear it. Please convey my well-wishes to the king." (VO: solemn)
(IF: Bhelen) Anora: "I am glad to hear it. Please convey my well-wishes to your husband, the king."
(IF: Harrowmont) Anora: "I am glad to hear it. Please convey my well-wishes to King Harrowmont."

------------------------------------------------------

ANORA SPEECH  (Only listing the lines that are slightly different for comparison, otherwise is the same as Alistair's dialogue.)
4. (IF: Relationships) Says "some of you ..." instead of  "some of us ..."
4. "It was his/her word that put me on the throne, even though he/she barely knew me. I am grateful beyond measure." (VO: sad eulogy, lots of emotion here)
5. (IF: Conscripted_ByDuncan) "It was not his choice to be a Grey Warden, but still he went to his death willingly. How does one properly honor a man like that?"
6. "The Grey Wardens are building a magnificent tomb at Weisshaupt, next to that of Garahel, but I believe more is required."
7. "Let all know that the arling of Amaranthine, once the land of Arl Howe, is now granted to the Grey Wardens."
10. "Now we bid the hero of Ferelden farewell. She/He will be sorely missed."

Anora: "I am glad to hear it. Please convey my well-wishes to your husband, the king."

Wait, so does Anora just not get the concept of a concubine or does Bhelen plan to marry her if she becomes a noble? I know DC can call Bhelen her husband and she corrects that she's his concubine so does she just not want to correct everyone at the funeral?

So, Rica's son starts a new house.

How would that work? The way the caste system works he's already a part of House Aeducan and, as the only heir, technically the heir to the throne. If you ask Bhelen if he'll be King, however, he does say he hasn't decided on an heir (since Endrin is the only child he has at the time I'd assume he doesn't want to end up stuck with Endrin as heir if he's less talented than his younger siblings like it did with Trian) which, given that Endrin and Rica are great tools to ensure the DC's cooperatoin, is surprisingly honest of him. I suppose if Rica and Bhelen have other children they might go into the new house, but the royal family's got to be more prestigious than a brand-new House with a dead Paragon.

Nooo idea. I also noticed that the Brosca doesn't even get the dwarven boon of sending aid to Orzammar. They're both like "oh, well, good luck!"

Rica's son starting a new house got me wondering if he would join the Brosca house or be an Aeducan if the DC lives.



Meh, pointless speculation.

DC's less likely to care about Orzammar in general, but that is rather strange. I haven't actally seen the funeral for a DC or DE but I'd assume that with the Dalish Elf Origin they'd mention giving them a homeland and for all the other Origins they grant them the Origin-specific boon (which is a waste for the HN given it happens anyway) so you'd think they'd do SOMETHING.

Yes. The mother even still manages to get sober if you live, which should be a nice change. Although now Bhelen is your brother-in-law...

Was I the only one who freaked out when he said 'now I can embrace you as a brother' after my DC won him the throne? I mean, considering what happened to his previous siblings...Image IPB

You could always choose Harrowmont. I think that he meant it as a double entendre.

Edit: Ergo, cross me and I will make sure you turn up dead within the week, paragon or not.
