I think I like him better when he's alive and kicking, Dana.

I'm still heartbroken about the fact that we can't save both, Carver and Bethany.

Is that a walking set of legs in the background? 

Edit: Nevermind. Carver just sliced that man in half I take it. 

The rest of the man's body just hasn't gotten the message yet. It's how Carver works, he... carves, expertly.

[marshalleck]

Wow, so Carver was at Ostagar? And his tendency toward rivalry stems from the fact that he's the sole non-mage of the youngest generation of Hawkes...I knew my spidey-sense was picking up on Carver for a reason! Sounds like he'll be a really interesting character. I can hardly wait to get my hands on this game.

Hey, in that pic of Carver that was posted in the last page, it has a different armour than the one I saw in the public demo. Or am I wrong?

I was confused for a moment when I first saw it, too. XD

And I think you're right, hhh89. Wasn't the demo the one with the armor people were calling warden armor? Blue and emblazoned? I might have to check that again.

"Carver, what are you doing out here?" Marian asked, sitting down next to her brother on the steps outside their uncle's estate. Carver mumbled something inaudible, causing Marian to ask, "What was that?"
"I said I miss Bethany. All we've done since Lothering is run away. From darkspawn, from our memories. And I'm tired of it!" Standing up suddenly, Carver began pacing, unshed tears glistening in his blue eyes. "I just--I want to remember her. Her smile, her laugh. That look on her face when she was about to light us on fire for doing something stupid." He chuckled a little at the thought, shoulders slumping. Getting up, Marian pulled her little brother into a hug.
"It's okay, Carver. I miss her too. But just imagine what she would think of us, sitting here moping about her."
"She'd probably appreciate it."
"Heh, you're probably right. And then she'd whack us with her staff and call us ninnies," Marian grinned, stepping back and ruffling her brother's hair. Carver smiled then, mussing his sister's hair in return.
"Come on," Marian stated then, "Mother is probably wondering where we wandered off to. I'd hate to tell her you were peeping on Isabela again..." Marian smirked deviously as her brother's face turned red.
"Hey! I was not!" Tossing a playful punch at Marian's arm, he followed her back inside, grumbling about lying siblings.

I hope we can talk with our siblings about the other one's death. A sad moment, yes, but a golden opportunity to bond with the living one.

This is a very sweet story, Arawr! I'm glad you decided to share it with us. 

[Arawr]

@MVMP: Thanks! And yes, the loss of a sibling isn't something one just gets over. I hope they acknowledge that throughout the game.



@Chignon: Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed it. I'll write another if inspiration strikes again!

Five new screenshots:












Here are a few more lines of Carver's ambient banter (those are rough translations - they will probably differ from the English version):

Bleibt nah bei mir. - Stay close to me.
Macht euch keine Sorgen. Ich halte die Augen offen.- Do not worry. I will keep my eyes open.
Ich kann Wache halten wenn ihr euch kurz ausruhen müßt. - I can stand guard if you need to rest for a bit.
Versucht zu Atem zu kommen so lange es noch geht. - Try to catch your breath as long as it is still possible.

That sounds great! I look forward to it.

Hmm I'm planning to "save" him  IF  he loses his fugly shirt. 
But seriously -  the shirt is the only thing I don't like about him.

Ooh, more screenies. I hope Carver eventually gets to wear that exaggerated armor for real, it looks awesome on him.

Where are those screenshots from, Chignon?

[cactusberry]

It might be nice, having a little brother standing beside you in fight. Cute how protective he is over femhawke.

These are all great! Thanks for putting all the screencaps up along with some of the dialogue. I think you're now officially Queen of the Carver Thread.

[Amagoi]

Wow, I leave for a day and that's when all the awesome Carver screenies pop up. Thanks Chignon! <3

Carver looks.. absolutely badass in these. I like his new armor (even if it's a reskin, which I hates with a passion) a lot better than the Grey Warden one. Personally I would hate for Carver to become a Warden, but technically Hawke has no way of knowing that his/her little brother is going to end up dying in 30 years from being one.

It's almost like Bioware is trying to make up for the first few 'derp' images by releasing a bunch of Carver just... carving. And looking very good doing it.

[Margaret_TheElf]

I love all of these new, sparkly Carver shots (except dead Carver D:), but I must say that this one is the most B.A.



Sniiiiiiiiiiiiiiiifff    Smell that, ladies and gentlemen? That is what MEN  smell like!        

[Chignon]

You're all very welcome.

And if that one shot is very popular, I'm sure noone's going to mind more from the same scene, right?

You're right - he does sound quite protective. Once you've arrived at Kirkwall, however, he seems slightly more hostile. Or maybe that's just my impression. If you click on him he'll tell Hawke: "If you got a plan then lead on."

(And again just to be on the safe side: Keep in mind that I am only translating his German lines.)

*some snippage for length's sake*


^ I think I found a new favorite, not that the dismemberment shots aren't great XD




 

Chignon, you are wonderful.  From now on whenever I see someone bashing Carver because of months old screenshots from an old build in a thread I'm in, I'm going to drop one of these in my next post (for all the good it'll do ). Thanks for the caps. This is going to be a sloooow last few weeks.

Thanks for the new screenshots and info, Chignon! Exaggerated!Carver's sword is like one of those infomercial kitchen knives that can cut through anything with no resistance.

I don't care what his shirt looks like, it'd be a crime to cover up those biceps. I demand equal-opportunity, inappropriate ogling.

Glorious! Or... gore-ious, but splendid either way. One can only hope that one day Carver will live up to his legend and cut things up like that for real!

That is definitely the new tag line for all these screenshots. In Cailan voice, naturally.

[Chignon]

Trust me, TLE, when I say that he does more than good outside of the legend. He saved my FemHawke's puny mage as- ... behind a dozen times over.

I think this weekend is the Revenge of Carver. He's suddenly quadripled his awesome points. Being at Ostagar was cool enough, but with the new armor and the cutting of darkspawn like hot butter.. he's become some sort of man-shaped awesome incarnate.

Way to go Carver! Now I finally have a good enough picture to set up as an avatar.

[Chignon]

Don't get your hopes up too much, Amagoi.

The trolling will continue - some people already have made up their minds about the character and to be perfectly honest, I am only waiting for the "He's whiny and fat and stupid and I can't wait to kill him!!!111!!1!" posts.

I edited the main page (like I should have a bazillion years ago.)

Could you remove the first Carver picture from months ago? It's as if the opening post is trolling Carver too.

I'm with TLE on this one.

Edit

If you want to add a picture of the Hawke family in the OP, I'm sure I could get you a better one.
