Not knowing who everyone is talking about is something I'll have to live with for never playing the Human Noble Origin. Oh well.

You could look them up on the wiki. Basically, Bryce is the father, Eleanor is the mother, Fergus is the brother, Oriana is the sister-in-law, and Oren is the nephew.


That's what I've been doing. I knew who Fergus, Bryce and potential Warden were. Just didn't know who any of those other guys were.

I remember being told Bryce respected the Grey Wardens but I can't find it on his wiki. Was it something you'd only learn from a certain conversation option?

Hey, Eleanor could also be an heir couldn't she? I love her! lol


Probably not, she'd probably be Queen-mother or Regent if Bryce died and then Fergus and HN died as well.

You never know. It's a Landsmeet vote after all. She'd probably defer to Fergus or the PC even so. But still, kicking ass next to your mom is probably the coolest thing about the HN origin.

He goes on about how the Wardens are great warriors and we wouldn't have found out about the darkspawn without them. It's implied that he respects them and if you choose a certain dialogue choice, Howe will say "didn't you just say that Wardens were awesome" (paraphrasing, of course)

Ah yes, true. I tend to think with the normal hierarchy. Though is the Landsmeet called if the next king is undisputed?

Well, Duncan is a guest at Highever in the HN origin and Bryce introduces you to him. He doesn't want you in the Wardens (although he promises to talk to you about it when he gets back from Ostagar if you keep pestering him about it) but he does impress upon you their importance.

You'd think so. It's a formality in those cases.

I think the Landsmeet is called for confirmation, regardless of whether it's disputed. And I wouldn't say that the Landsmeet where Cailan was confirmed was disputed, because even though Bryce had the support, he refused to accept it.

Is it possible he was just being a good host? I've heard politicians like to toss compliments at each other and considering the two would be fighting alongside each other very soon Bryce had reason to make a good impression.

Unlikely. Bryce specifically invited Duncan to Highever Castle when he didn't have to. There was already a tournament where a winner (Jory) was chosen, so what Bryce did was more than he had to do. And I think Bryce was the one who mentioned Ser Gilmore as a potential recruit.

Well this is an Alistair gush thread...



I appreciate the man's hair. (No this isn;t a Leliana pickup line) He's the only male character in the whole game with an actual haircut. I like that.

I keep wondering how he keeps it so well-groomed during the year you're traveling. Maybe Leliana keeps it trimmed, but where does he get the hair gel?

I know!

How he finds the time for all that hair maintenance and come up with that snark, I'll never figure out.

He raids Morrigan's stuff. Apparently swamp goop with lavender makes a good smelling gel. -shrug- Who knew? Morrigan and Alistair are the height of medievil fashion:)

LOL!! And doesn't Oghren have the same haircut, or is that a result of DA Redesigned?

Yep. Vartag might as well but it's hard to tell from the picture on the wiki since he has dark hair.

Maybe everyone's getting into Morrigan's hair gel, and Leliana's giving haircuts all across Ferelden. Everyone wants to look like Alistair!

Okay, so question:



If Duncan had lived, and left Ferelden to fall to the Blight like DG says he would have, would Alistair have gone with him?



Do you think a PC's refusal to leave would have influenced him at all?

*looks at picture of Oghren, looks at picture of Alistair*

Yeah, they need more than a haircut.
