Well a religious police doesn't have to be all bad guys, even if historically they mostly were. Plus, it seems to be limited to Templars, so maybe they just focus on those and not on "heretics" elsewhere.

Tempting.....very tempting. I might give it a try. How about the other choices throughout the game? Are they any good?

It's basically like this for many choices.



Do I allow an assassination of a president to take place, but stop rioting that will kill hundreds or do I stop the assassination?



Do I allow the girl my PC loves die, or do I sacrifice her to save dozens of innocents....



Do I kill a terrorist ( and I don't mean Cerberus kind. I mean Al-Qaeda type one. The kind who kills innocents to prove a point ) or do I let him live to use him as an ally?



Stuff like that. Your choices DO matter. Yes you can be a complete dick and kill everyone and you will still finish the game BUT it will help a great deal if you are clever and know how to manipulate the hell out of people.



You are given 3 choices in a dialogue, but that only reflects what stance you will have ( professional, suave or aggressive. ) Each NPC will react differently to the kind of answer you choose. Some prefer suave, some aggressive some professional. Depending on your answer you will either gain reputation with them or lose it, it is said that losing reputation might be a good thing....but I disagree...the ending I said had me maxing ( or trying to max out ) reputation.



I had Thorton romance 3 women....all of whom ended up dead. Hell I killed 2 of them personally ( though one betrays you, and the other is a sodding USA loyalist which would get in my way with my plans to control the world ).

Hot news on the hot dwarf: supposedly the organization he seems to be in charge of is called Seekers or something to this effect, and it's "Templar Internal Affairs" type of organization in the Chantry.
Finding the concept... intriguing.

Where can this info be found?

[tmp7704]

It's in this thread: http://social.biowar...1/index/3111397

but it's not official hence "supposedly".

I just find it odd that there would be a dwarf at a high position in a chantry institution due to the jury still being out on whether dwarves should be counted as the makers children.

I thought that it looked more like Behrat's heraldry and thus he might work with smuggling lyrium amongst other things.

That was my initial impression as well Hurr.

And the Chantry does contemplate an exalted march after what happens to Dwarven Andrastians in Orzammar, which sort of implies that they do care about dwarves who share their faith. Granted, there might be other reasons why they were contemplating a march.

Like cheaper lyrium? The dwarves make them pay through their noses for it.

It's certainly rather odd but that either implies the dwarf is quite unusual individual, or that the chantry recognizes value of someone who's naturally more resistant to magic and lyrium in position of overseer of mages and templars. Or both.

There's alternative explanation in that thread too btw. The dwarf is just narrating Hawke's early experiences to the woman you can see on the picture. That would mean she is one of the Seekers (bearing their symbol and all) and that throne may actually be hers, while the dwarf is just being overly nonchalant but not actually tied to that order at all.

[Costin_Razvan]

Damn...now that is very bloody interesting. I suppose it makes sense for the Chantry to have a secret police.
Off-Topic: Here is the TIM ending for Alpha Protocol Knight....if you don't mind spoilers ( though I would earnestly suggest waiting for the patch to come out )

Alpha Protocol: Halbech Betrayal ending.

Oh and there is also this: Alpha Protocol: Halbech Normal Ending.

Second one has a better cinematic....but first is more interesting.

Yea, no spoilers Costin, cause I just got the game today (off record, it's not an original copy, so it's cheap down here. But I can't get patches). It seems you mentioning TIM was tempting enough for me, I guess you learned the manipulation skill from the game? *laughs*

I didn't get far in the game though. Just went to Saudi Arabia and will start doing bonus objectives. Until now, I like Parker the most. Planing to max out everyone's reputation, so will be reading lots of dossiers.

I like Marburg and Leland a lot....but yeah Albatross is awesome.

Knight: There is no patch out yet, it is being worked on atm.

TIM and Bhelen are some great teachers in that art "Chuckle." Though yeah...Thorton is also a good one.

My 2nd favorite ending has you sitting by the docks...accepting a cuban cigar from your new boss ( which you are planning to replace eventually )  and taking a drag from it.

So I was looking through Nadezda's dialogue to see if there was any basis for someone's claim that she didn't just POTENTIALLY misuse the money you gave her but that she definitely spent it on alcohol and drugs (and there wasn't although, again, we have no idea what she did with it despite her continuous refrences to food so it's a possibility) and saw her say that the nobles branded - I doubt they did it personally so she probably meant it was done on their orders - casteless babies on the day that they were born.

I was freaking out for a minute since if Mardy's kid was branded then he'd be screwed either way so why was she so hopeful that you could help but then I remembered that a few weeks ago we had decided that they were branded the day they were born if there was no question about the father but if there was (Mardy's claim to have an Aeducan) then there was a grace period to get the child acknowledged before he got the brand and it only would have been about three months since DN Jr. was born. Thanks Dwarf Thread!

Random question: Are golems resistant to magic?

I don't remember shale being that.

[Liliandra Nadiar]

Ones in the Fade didn't seem overly so. Crushing Prison scored 9/10 times. (I only remember on golem in the whole Fade that resisted it, all the others got locked in place) Other then the 3 golems on just me, Burning Man's fire spells took them out most of the time with little effort.



Other then the Spell Res crystals, Shale had no innate resistences that I could see.

[thegreateski]

Golems are resistant to magic.



They are former Dwarfs who were converted using lyrium, why wouldn't they be?

[Sarah1281]

I have decided to lessen my annoyance of having Hawke be human by giving her an inferiority complex to dwarves.

[Giggles_Manically]

Ah yes "Dwarves" the supposed race of superb miners who are short and resistant to magic, who also live in big caves deep underground, ah we have dismissed those claims.

Wait.



I just had a bad thought.



If the next DA is taking place in the Free Marches . . . then the only Dwarfs we'll encounter will be surfacers.

I know. Maybe we could at least run into some who had come from Kal-Sharok so we can find out more about it.

Does Kal-Sharok even have a path to the Surface? You'd think if they did people would have realized they existed. Maybe we can find a path? *is hopeful*

[thegreateski]

I'm a bit sad about this really. The Deep Roads were my favorite enviroment in the game.



The fallen empire aspect mind you. Not the endless tunnels of brown.

Dwarf thread, a question.

For my ME2 Youtube playthroughs. Should do an actual suicide mission, or should I go through with trying to keep everyone alive? ( though some people will die anyway )

Either way is fine with me....and thus I have trouble deciding.

P.S. Does Shepard with this Beret look OK or like crap?
