Maybe calling it playthrough is a bit much considering that the character is only level 3. It's a playthrough that exists in my head and as a written outline only. I never got around to actually play her (but I will, it's the savegame I would want to import into DA2).
It is my canon because her character is the most interesting. She embraces being a Warden by the time of the Landsmeet but she's also very tired. All the responsibility is wearing her down, so when Riordan makes a suggestion she simply agrees. Good thing Alistair is trying to grab the throne because she never considered this to be an option. A Grey Warden has no name and no title. Period. The Landsmeet kind of gets out of hand.
Her relationship with Alistair is interesting, they do have one, however, she is unable to commit herself fully, so it's rather a dance around each other, on and off. He loves her and sometimes wonders why, she doesn't even know if she loves him (probably not, or maybe she does?).
I wanted them to clash, so she annulled the Circle and made Isolde kill Connor.
It's hard to balance her. I want her to be human, still likeable but flawed. She's not arbitrarily violent or lacks compassion, but she's pragmatic enough to accept that she's going to leave death and destruction in her wake, sometimes consciously, sometimes accidentally.
She's certainly not me. It's very interesting to have a Warden you like but don't always agree with. And Alistair, my favourite character, who needs to grow up.
Thanks for the explanation, I was just curious how that story would play out. And on the last part, I totally agree. I've played one dastardly character who is the complete opposite of me but I really loved to play as her. It was fun even if I wanted to strangle her for some of the things she did.
