But you do bring up a good point: we don't know the full extent of what went on between the Architect and Urthemiel. Perhaps that was also a piece of Flemeth's plan? She would need Urthemiel awake to have Morrigan capture its soul but maybe something went wrong some where.


For all we know, Flemeth was the one that "awoke" the Architect in the first place? Morrigan does say in Witch Hunt that Flemeth played an even greater role in the Blight than we realize.


If she really wanted that OGB, then I can definitely see her indirectly causing the Blight.

I think we are all forgetting the most important character who should come back.

Schmooples. Who landed in the free marches after the Warden finally lost her temper and kicked that annoying little nug as far as she could.


Then Leliana reminded her that she'd been abstinent for two years in the Chantry and could easily do so again, which lead the Warden to travel to the Free Marches and spend hours in some cold, muddy swamp searching for that adorable bunny-pig and then bringing it back to Ferelden.

I have liked this theory for a while.

Indeed. But I guess the joke's on her since Morrigan doesn't seem keen to deliver the OGB to Flemeth.

I'd rather not have that if the character is dead in my save file to be honest. It would frustrate me and ruin the credibility of my story.


If we were to bring back a character that might be dead, chances are we'd provide an explanation. It'd be a hand-wave, sure, but I doubt we'd ignore the possibility outright. I think there's a limit to how much we'd want to do that, of course-- dead should mean dead, whenever possible.


I don't want this!

She seemed to anticipate Morrigan wanting her dead and she knew Morrigan well enough to understand she'd be willing to play broodmother to an archdemon soul.

I think as long as the baby exists, Flemeth would consider everything going to plan. The magical teleportation gates might have been something she didn't consider.

I don't think so, I think has more plans. I mean, she certainly wanted Morrigan to get her hands on her magic book, considering she tries to kill you if you say you won't give it to her. I think there's something in that book that will force Morrigan to do something for Flemeth.

Well, they died, I looted their corpses, and they turned into a pool of blood and a handful of bones.

If they managed to survive that somehow, they sure have every right to pop up in DA2. More power to them.

Sorry for the delay in responding...had work and all.

I got a giggle from the imagery; it reminded me of a scene from "Groundhog Day." 

*car with main character has a prolonged and violent descent to the bottom of a quarry*
Rita: Oh my God!
Larry (unconvincing tone): Don't worry, I'm sure he's fine.
*car explodes*
Larry (shakes his head in defeat):  Oh.  Well, no, probably not now.

Seriously, though, since the bodies dissolve to bone and blood within a minute of death, I think it's reasonable to presume that mechanic is simply a lag deterrent - not a literal representation of what happens to the corpse.  Looting the "body" is fine; it still doesn't mean they're dead. 

***Edit***  Just saw these other posts:

Heh, but it's kind of strange if you happened to do a deathblow decapitation on them, unless they're really good at feigning death.

That's one of these things which set apart the really good rogues from the rest...

LOL.  Decoy head?  *knows it's thin but giving it a shot anyway*  :bandit:

Then he'll appear stumbling out of a bar, with a messy, unkempt beard, eh? ;-)

Man, I kinda feel like maybe I shouldn't have made Alistair be king... I didn't know we'd have an opportunity to win the Landsmeet without him at that point in the story. But I don't wanna play through so much AGAIN to change one decision.

something like:

i'm pretty sure you were thrown off a cliff...

party member in question: i landed on a soft bed of leaves/ i fell on water/ i got better.


Possibly, though I imagine we'd do better if we could. Image IPB

I think our willingness to bring a possibly-dead character back relates to how often they ended up dead in peoples' games. If they're dead in only a small minority of games, there's a better chance than if it was a very common thing... or if we couldn't come up with a non-lame explanation. Hand-waves only go so far, and like I said it's not something we'd want to over-indulge in, anyhow, considering this isn't a setting where death is trivial.


I have always seen blood magic as something that could rectify a death (though I'm not sure on the specifics I'm sure it could happen somehow). The idea is now yours Gaider ^_^

How are you enjoying RDR on PC? Halo Reach? GOW III? Heavy Rain? Ensalved?

Guess if you are happy with low budget crap made in the bassement of some russians. That and RTS.

The genre for losers.


Why would one want to play crappy console ports, when one has masterfull titles for the PC?
Console games can be very fun, but one can do more with PC games. There's simply more potential and scope/depth and innovation in them.
In other words, the PC as a platform enables a game creator to do MORE.

But this is a matter for a separate thread of PM....


BACK ON TOPIC:
IIRC, Nathanial is said to show up on DA2. We know Isabella is back. Alistair has a possible cameo.

So who elses could possibly show up? Who has reasons to leave Ferelden?
Bodhan? (he is a traveling merchant)

Wouldn't be too hard, since there is no evidence shown that she had anything to do with the blight itself.

Wynne was going both to Cumberland and Minrathous in most of my endings, the Free Marches are very much on the way there.
