So How Much And Why Do YOU Love Alistair?

Posted Image

So I have to know: What is it with Alistair and the enormous outpouring of love, lust, slash, and general goo-goo eyes from the females (and some males, as well) of the world? I pose this question because I just don’t understand it — is it the pretty boy good looks? Is it the quasi-tortured and sad whiny-boy who can kick ass but “just needs a good woman to love him” thing? Is it… that he’s a virgin? Will have a threesome? What? What is it that causes girls and women alike to melt over this fictional man and express their undying love and… other things to the world at large?

He's a Woobie. But not an overly-obvious one.



So I guess he's a Stealth Woobie.

Oh, that's easier to explain than you'd think.

It's not the looks so much, or even the voice (though both of those things do help, giving her an exotic flavor that many men like a lot). From what I've gathered, the reason many male players fall hard for Morrigan is because she has that hard, hard shell. She pushes the player away and wants nothing to do with love, but when that shell starts to crack he starts to think that maybe he can reach her. Maybe he can save her, bring out that vulnerable side she only rarely shows and which she would never even admit to.

There are certain fantasies that romances cater to, and Morrigan has hers just as Alistair does. It's never going to appeal to everyone, but it certainly doesn't happen by accident.
