So I am a male player that has a hard time making a female, so I play males.  My question is are females more vocal then males or do most males play females, becuase you never hear who males romance, only females.  Maybe it's just me.  Like to hear opinions.

I recommend playing a female City Elf Warden for a richer, more emotional Origin story. And I have personally found some of the other female Warden tales intriguing (eg; Human Noble, Elven Mage).

But generally, I play as a male. Guess this is best cause I would have to read the walkthrough to answer those questions on shoes, I prefer my quickslots to remain in the same order rather than moved occasionally for aesthetical reasons, and if you don't already know, I am not going to tell you.... *ducks and runs*

[Tequitos]

Thats a honest answer. thanks.

personally I was sorta upset that most females started with some sort of Lover, while males were made to look like womanizers.



so I'm guessing most female wardens are males?

[Corker]

Hey, quickslot arrangement is srsbzns! That's, like, human-computer interface design issues. It's more efficient and reduces cognitive loading to separate the archer talents from the DW talents, and to visually isolate the expendables, like healing poultices and poisons, from the talents using a blank slot!

That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

Is that true?



CE origin: both male and female are getting married to someone they've never met and have no choice in the matter.



DE origin: females CAN choose to set Tamlen to 'probable future bondmate' status if you talk to him and choose the options about wanting to be with him. This is strictly your choice and the DEF can just have Tamlen be a friend. Males don't appear to have anyone mentioned.



Mage origin: Cullen has a crush on the female mage but whether they notice it, are bothered by it, or are intrigued by it is up to them. The female mage can tell Jowan they used to like him but, again, all up to you. The male don't appear to have anyone mentioned.



HN origin: Howe brings up his son or daughter's interest in you (which, at least for Delilah, is inaccurate) and you can respond how you will. You can also sleep with either Iona or Dairren regardless of gender. The only difference in dialogue here is Oriana tells the female to be discrete if they start talking about multiple lovers.



DC origin: DC male can bring up sex to one of the servants they meet and she threatens to report your harrassment and DC females get Leske teasingly asking if they're jealous if she asks him not to talk about Rica like that.



DN orign: For DNFs, Gorim begins with a flirty line and you can ignore it which sets him as a friend, respond in kind which sets him as a LI, tell him they've been down this road before which sets him at spurned, or tell him to remember his place which sets him as more of a servant. For DNMs, they get the chance to sleep with two noble-hunters (and possibly both) because they want to have your child. You're hardly the only womanizer around here.



Either HN can be sexually experienced and only the DNM has the option to be a so-called womanizer and that's strictly because he can get these women pregnant and that's what they're aiming for. The other origins don't have anything of the sort and none of the origins force you to be in a relationship with anyone although the CE does start off the day of your wedding.

[Tequitos]

Thats why I play my HNM as womanizers that romance every girl they see.



But yea I guess your right..

[mousestalker]

If you really want to sow your oats, DNM is the origin of choice.



For that matter, once you move past the origin story, men have a bit more opportunity for bedroom hijinks. Women can flirt with Bann Teagan at Redcliffe, men can proposition Bella and get a kiss in the Chantry from Kaitlyn. Isabella goes for anyone with high enough coercion in Denerim and the Pearl is an equal opportunity provider. I once read that there is a Chantry sister in Lothering who flirts a bit, but I haven't seen it. Human Noblemen can marry Anora, whether that is a positive or negative is up to you. Cammen and Gheyna provide entertainment in the Dalish camp which proves that men have it better in game right there. Gheyna is cute. Cammen is the reason I never do that quest.

[Tequitos]

My male noble did marry Anora and I like how you could make Leliana your mistress. Only problem I had with Anora is she only marries you to keep her throne.

I did like how males handled the Isabella threesome/ foursome. It felt akward with females because it felt like like, I'm a woman and your a woman lets get kinky. lol

I iked how could get kisses from females in Redcliffe, but your LI would take a massive approval hit espically if its Leliana. Morrigan will lose more approval if you give them money, then a kiss.

You have that vicious catfight between Leliana and Morrigan

So I guess maybe the males are more active post origin then the actual Origin.

Well why else should she marry you? She barely even knows you.

She knows your family, so its obvious she heard of the cousland before.

Yes but she does not know you personally. The only reason that a noble would marry someone that they did not love was because they needed an heir (which Anora may not even be able to have and definitely isn't particularly concerned with as, if allowed to become solo Queen, she'll never remarry) or because they get some sort of advantage. In this case, it's Anora keeping her throne. Why do you feel that the fact that she was fond of your dead mother should make her have a desire to marry a stranger that does not have anything to do with heirs or keeping the throne? 

[mousestalker]

I think the most foolproof way to make sure Anora never has children is to ask to marry her because "she liked your mother" when playing a human noble man. That pretty much guarantees nothing ever happening.

[Tequitos]

To me Anora acts like the marriage will never be anything more then political. When you marry Alistair, she will tell you "Calian has his women." I know she doesn't say anything about a male and his LI. She will say she's nervous about the marriage during post coronation, so maybe she does like him.

Most people I know that married Anora either have Leliana on the side, go looking for morrigan, and sometimes Zev on the side.  So sometimes I wonder if Anora will be romantically involved.

I think you're getting a little ahead of yourself. At the time you propose marriage, it's the first time you speak to her privately ever. You only met her at Howe's estate and she talked to Eamon briefly in your presence before this. You don't have much time to talk to her pre-Landsmeet and the same post-Landsmeet. Maybe there was some time to talk pre-Coronation but you're still virtual strangers.



If you continue romancing Morrigan I don't feel it's a big deal as she's long gone before the wedding and Anora doesn't even have to find out about her. Keeping Leliana or Zevran on the side pretty much kills any hope that Anora could come to have more of a romantic relationship with you as, while she's willing to tolerate it if you're discrete, she hates the position that forces her into.



If you don't romance Anora, don't try to steal her power, and just overall try to get along with her then EVENTUALLY she may come around but not by the time the game ends. The post-Coronation dialogue is encouraging on that front, I agree.

I tend to lean towards males mostly because I can easily put myself in their shoes and get a better feel of how they would behave in a situation in the game, That said I have nothing against female characters and I'm thinking of making a female mage.

[Tequitos]

Your right, I'm probably getting ahead of myself. With the Witch Hunt DLC your able to go through the mirror with Morrigan while married to Anora. maybe it's a glitch. That's not going to make Anora look good.



I just hope in DA2 there as atleast a banter on where the cousland and anora stand because in the epilogue with the "if they can get along." Just leaves me wondering.

The only witnesses are a dog, a Dalish, and a mage. That story's not going to get out. I don't think it's a glitch as if you care more for following Morrigan than anything else than why should being married stop you? Anora will probably make something up about you falling in battle.

[Kernel Cinders]

Anora is a self-serving wench anyways. Maybe I'll be able to convince Morrigan to kill her in the future. If I'm going to be with a selfish woman, it's going to be Morrigan, not Anora. lol

[Tequitos]

I may be the only male who did this but I liked Morrigans romance but after the WH DLC, I feel much more satisfied letting Morri go her own way and me end with Lel.



On topic though

I mean the Alistair thread basically overflows while Morrigan and Lel threads get very few replys a day.

I have yet to play a male character in DAO.   I have no specific interest to romance Morrigan. I really love the way the female chars are handled in game, for the first time ever in a game I've played.  Plus I love angst, and I seem to have more opportunity for it with the female character origins I've played so far.  Though I do want to make Minsc, the human noble, at some point.

Yea i wasn't a big fan of the Morrigan romance, but I feel wierd trying to make a female. lol

I can only speak from a female point of view, but I think the male romanceable NPC's were far more interesting than the female ones.
