Yes. IRL not so much, but fictional characters with laser guided intense yet misaimed determination? I dig it. Even if they're absolutely horrible people I get really invested in characters who think they're doing the right thing especially if it's at the cost of their health/sanity/reputation/social standing etc. (Which sounds like the college experience, so I guess I can relate?)


Loghain? :-D

*Shakes head* What is with you lot and this Prince Nuada guy?


This is what is with us! Well, he's tragic and sympathetic and brooding and a white-haired elf warrior who feels wronged and wants to fight against injustice. Just in base, broad characteristics, sound like anyone you know? ;)

Their stories are very different, but I think Fenris and Nuada would SO be drinking buddies. They'd knock back some wine; Fenris would vent about mages, and Nuada would rant about the humans destroying all the magical creatures, and they would teach each other their favorite drinking songs. It would be a night to rock the tavern!


OK, nevermind. I see this clip and I like this guy's voice, a lot. And I can see your point about them being drinking buddies-- as long as Nuada didn't get it into Fenris' head that all humans need to die.

I agree. IRL, those are ingredients for all kindsa bad disaster. In game? Legit. But that's what makes it a fantasy game, right? Enjoying characters who typically are unhealthy in the real world?

I'm more interested in Gaider answering the following questions until more is revealed :



Is Fenris in pain when his markings are touched, or any part of his skin?

And do those markings glow in the dark?

And --- Is he in pain because his energy is 'drawn' when people touch them?



I just want to know, because these could be really really fun to draw in all kinds of comical situations.

A little, but I'd get over it pretty quickly. I don't need to romance anyone in order to enjoy the game to its fullest. Besides, in all honesty we hardly know anything about him. I may play the game and discover that I don't even want to romance him. It has happened with other characters in the past.

I'd probably be 10x more disappointed if he was a romance and I thought it was handled poorly, though. Thankfully the DA:O romances were all pretty good so I expect to like the ones in DA2 as well.

Or maybe the opposite happens and the person doing the touching of Fenris gets leeched. Oh, the drama that would ensue!  :P

Hawke's own personal light source :wizard:
Glowing tattoos would be... amusing. But (to me) it looks like the tattoos don't really seem glowy in the screenshots :/
Alas, would be interesting to know how/why/when the markings hurt and is there a way to soothe the pain.

To these I would add a question how much pain a single touch gives him?
owwww *winces*
or
OMG make it stoooooooop, MAKE IT STOOOOOOOP

I want to know if he can bear someone toucing him and it just isn't very pleasant or if no one can touch him EVER because the pain is unbelievable

Difficult to say... I would be a little disappointed, definitely. But as long as there was a compelling rivalry or friendship path to make up for it then I'll be more than satisfied. It could be like Bishop, where I had more fun imagining and dreaming up fanfics of what-could-have-been than I think I would have if he'd actually been a full-fledged romance (...okay, maybe that's not true, I wish his romance had been finished - the point is that it's not the end of the world if a character I really like isn't an 'official' LI).

I guess the fans who really lose out if Fenris isn't an LI are those who never read fanfics or anything.

I don't really know enough about Fenris to say whether I'd want him as a love interest or not. It depends on what his personality is like and how he interacts with Hawke in the game. Should be interesting to find out either way. 

Wynne wrote...
I think that's important for a second-love romance: if the player has to be the second sweeping, compelling romance in the LI's life, they must have the chance to feel that "*I* suit my LI *now*." At least with Carth it was hard to doubt he saw you as different from his lost wife, whereas if you tell Thane you can't replace his dead wife, he's like, "well, you wouldn't be, but I understand you mean you want to break up," which is pretty unfortunate with the implications there despite how he may have meant it. Bottom line: it just has to be handled right, and not done too often, particularly not in the same way.


I didn't even know who Carth was until I visted these forums so maybe that's why the dead wife/lost love trope doesn't really bother me. I thought Thane's romance in ME2 was done extremely well. What he actually says in response to "I can't replace your wife" is "You wouldn't have. You can love more than one in a lifetime. I'll respect your wishes. I won't speak of it again. I hope it won't offend you if I carry you in my heart."

And looking at the scene in context, he had basically just poured out his heart to Shepard. He explains to her what siha means and says "I confess, I've come to care for you. Perhaps I'm beeing foolish, we are very different". He's going out on a limb confessing this to her and I'm not surprised that he takes it as a rejection when Shepard responds "We are different. I wouldn't be able to replace your wife" The fact that he tells Shepard she wouldn't be a replacement and he'll carry her in his heart anyway prove to me that he does love Shepard whether the feelings are returned or not. Shepard awoke him. Shepard's cause gives him purpose. She challenges him. She makes him feel worthy of more than the isolation of the past ten years. When he mentions Irikah, it's because he wants to explain himself to Shepard. And it's obvious he loved his wife (I would be disturbed if he didn't) but it's clear to me when you do the romance that he loves Shepard now. You can love more than one person in a lifetime. Thane's romance was the most compelling to me, but I suppose opinions will vary.

I wonder if Fenris is just a one-off experiment created by the magister, or if there are others in the Imperium similar to him. I mean having a legion of soldiers with no recollection of friends or family could form a rather lethal fighting force.

Above all I'm concerned with Fenris being a good character. LI or no.

It's entirely possible that I might not like Fen as a character in the end, LI or not :/  But then again, I liked all of the DAO companions (always killed Loghain though). Not that it proves anything but bwah :D  I'm pretty sure Fen will be a good if not awesome companion. AND LI!

I'll keep fingers crossed for a vid with a wee bit of Fen to be released next month :innocent:

But we can always hope.

When I first saw Miranda, I thought, "Holy love interest!". But I never romanced her, because I hated her.
