On a side note, I was really disappointed that Isabela didn't stick around for the fancy party. I would have loved to see her at one. Isabela and Sister Nightingale with Hawke, take two.


Same, especially since she likes to borrow Hawke's fancy dresses :P

I would love to see Isabela in a dress... but I'm also still waiting for Morigan in that low cut red dress Leliana was talking about.

BioWare is doing that on purpose. They fuel my expectations and then they don't deliver. It's sheer torture :lol:

I was extremely pleased with Isabela's part in MotA, particularly her conversation with Tallis in the cave 


Oh, absolutely. I was pleasantly shocked by how much meaty goodness was there. (And oh Victoria Kruger, such emotive talent :wub:)

I've only run through it thus far with an Act II Hawke who just started the Izzy romance and is a little past the Friendmance QB approval-wise; when I let her choose with the pirates, she chose to leave them where they sat (I reloaded. I'm playing a no-elemental-weapons playthrough anyway. Though I agree, if there'd been a new mesh I might well have kept it). Makes me curious if the conversation in the cave would have run differently at a different point in the romance/part of the approval meter as well.

(Also spoilers: Jealous Izzy is adorable.)

Ok, so I have a question for all of you who romanced Isabela and took her along in MotA.

Does Hawke still get to kiss Tallis if Isabela is romanced and present? I flirted with Tallis every chance I had and, at the end, Isabela says something like "There's plenty of Hawke to go around. Just ask me nicely.", but no kiss scene. Does this only trigger if your LI is not present?

That's fascinating! I love it!

She totally is. That scene, plus the scene immediately following ("I have Hawke") made me melt. Seriously.

Tallis will only kiss Hawke if no love interest is present. If you don't romance anybody, you're fine; otherwise the love interest has to stay home.

The "I have Hawke" is probably my favorite Izzy scene in the game. My Hawke completely melted when she heard that. It's beyond adorable and not something I'd expect Isabela to say publicly. :wub:

All in all, a truly pleasant surprise.

EDIT:

Thanks for the information hooray! 

That explains it. I thought Isabela was an exception to that rule, since she doesn't mind sharing, but it seems to not be the case.

I don't think she made any jealous remarks on my playthrough. But that's probably because I used a Hawke from Act 3 who completed all her personal quest.

Next time I'll take her with me in Act 2 and see what's different.

Well... she said that Tallis had to ask for her permission first. A little possessive spark. At least in my headcanon :lol:

Oh, that one.

Yeah, I can see how that can be interpreted as Izzy being a bit possessive. :D

She does in the caverns - she tells Tallis that Hawke prefers pirates, Rivaini pirates. (paraphrasing here, but the idea should be clear)

I saw it this way:

Isabela does not mind sharing Hawke physically, as long as Hawke's ok with it and the person she's sharing Hawke with acknowledges that Hawke belongs to Isabela. 

Tallis, on the other hand, is not the type who would do something like that, and so she just expresses her (slight) jealousy, and goes on her way.

The line is "She likes rogues. Rivaini rogues, especially" and it comes from taking the first flirt with Tallis in the cave before the choice of whether to join or leave.

Izzy is a bit jealous but in the end she does not mind, as long as Tallis realizes who Hawke really "belongs" to.

I think the fact that Talis is a random Qunari agent who keeps getting Hawke nearly killed is probably a factor, too. I can see Izzy manifesting a bit of possessiveness just out of "really, Hawke? Her of all people?" even if she's not opposed to Hawke sleeping with [generic non-Izzy] partners in general.

Though there is also her fairly pointed response to Talis' "are you married" commentary.

I admit, that caught me by surprise, and I enjoyed it immensely. I could totally imagine subsequent scenes where Isabela does "subtle" things to demonstrate the extent of their relationship to Tallis.

Out of curiosity does anyone know if Isabela's lines change if you play MotA with an 'uncompleted romance?'

I don't think they do. I played it once with an act 2 save after having slept with her (but obviously still far from completing the romance) and the lines I got are pretty much the same I've seen from everyone else.

I thought Isabela and Tallis were great together. Where Isabella and Aveline can't get along at all, Isabela and Tallis felt more like friendly rivals. I loved the final flirt option with Isabela and Tallis. The wink Isabela gave was golden. She pretty much stole the show for me in MOTA especially after not having much to say or do in Legacy.

One thing I kind of wish had happened... even if Isabela couldn't go to the fancy party as design mandate, she could have started to go and Tallis shut her down ("No, we need to split up to avoid notice."). Isabela could then complain about not getting something to drink, and Hawke could promise her to bring her something afterwards, or something.

"...or something?" Like the post Murder of Crows "there better be sex to make up for it" something? A little tumble on some Orlesian linens? Posted Image

Isabela and Aveline are so hilarious together! I laughed so much when I was playing MotA. XD

Interesting. It seems that there's a different line for lady Hawke and dude Hawke.

This video has Isabela saying "Oh, it is. Trust me." but in my playthroughs (snarky lady Hawke), she said "She likes rogues. Rivaini rogues, especially."

Can anyone verify? I wonder what other lines of dialogue are different based on personality or gender?

I'm just replaying MotA to see what Bethany has to say in the DLC. I will use the flirt option at that point and report back when I know what she says to my diplomatic male Hawke :)

Is there any specific banter between bethany and isabela if you have started a romance with isabela and already slept with her before starting Legacy? I know she has a short cut scene at the start of Legacy but is there anything else like how bethany teases merill if you romanced her? I am asking because i am in the middle of a new game with isabela as my LI, i am in act 2, just slept with isabela started legacy but other than the cut scene at the start i have not gotten any banter about isabela as my LI. don't want to miss anything so if i need to get further in my romance with isabela before i get any fun banter than i will have to restart from one of my savegames

I didn't get any romance specific banter between Isabela and Bethany... their conversation when looking for Hawke is cute though.
