It is an old term, and the opposite of "Lawful Stupid".

Indeed she did.
Nah old term. She just fits it a little too well.
I never heard those terms before.

Hmm. *listening to voice clip yet again*
That he sounds so self-assured and 'I win, but I'm stating the obvious' is a +jerk attribute, but would a true jerk leave the ringleader to run while he can? He doesn't, but he did give a warning before pwning him. Just musing, but maybe that's a sign of mercy. Somewhat. Otherwise he could have just killed the all straight off and been done with it.
I picture Fenris trying to cultivate some sort of superstition among the men that his Master sends after him. He just wants to be left alone. So if he comes off as this cold-blooded killer that scares people away it keeps him safe.
I can imagine it now:
(A tavern in the Tevinter Imperium)
Mercenary: Did you hear about that elf Gareth's men went after?
Bounty Hunter: Yeah, I heard that it tore this guy's heart out with his bear hands
Pirate: That's nothing I heard that it took out have a legion of Auxilia with nothing but a rusty dagger.
Mercenary: You couldn't pay me enough to go after that guy.
(The Magister walks into the tavern)
Magister: (In a loud booming voice) Greetings gentlemen! I come with a proposition for you, how would you all like the chance to serve your Imperium? (no one stands up) I am willing to pay a hefty sum for your services! (everyone remains seated) Anybody? (sighs and walks out of tavern)
Bartender: I don't even want to know what that maniac is doing right now.
(Meanwhile in Kirkwall)
Fenris: (petting a kitten behind the ears) Who's a good kitten?
Hawke: Uh... what are you doing?
Fenris: ... Training.
Hawke: ...
Anders: He's training Ser Pounce-a-lot to be a WHAT!?!?
Fenris: Pfffft, nooooo?

I'm confused. Have we now deduced that Fenris is a cocky bastard/jerk out of 9 seconds of dialogue to the guys who are chasing him down? He just sounded angry to me, not 'haha, I'm so awesome, look what I did to your guys'. Varric sounds more cocky then him.
This.
I think that he just was showing pure hatred for the magister's goons. My guess would be that he is dark/irritable/but a softie on the inside

Some speculation has lead to that. And he's got that theatrical, confident inflection. Putting his back to the soldier guy like he isn't a threat. dbflasdjfsldf.

such... these 9 seconds just added to the "mess". Though he may be
tagged as the "cold guy" for now, let's just wait and see once we'll
play the game (if we don't get more of him before DA2 is out)

Consider who we have telling the story.
Varric version:
"Your men are dead and your trap has failed I suggest running back to your master while you still can"
Fenris version:
"Run."
Hawke Version:
"Speak more words you beautiful creature."

I hope he won't be as transparent as Jack if that was the case.

This assumes that it is the exaggerated section, otherwise we might as well give up on the game even being close to telling the truth.

I thought it sounded like he was kind of gritting his teeth as he said it.
All I'm saying is I really wouldn't spend time getting upset at his character when we don't know for sure. Just a couple days ago, a lot of people thought Fenris was a mindless murderer cause it looked like he killed a random guy for touching him.
Unless he was smiling, which we can't see, I don't think he's all that cocky, just annoyed that they are chasing him.

Oh, I'm not upset. I'm in love-to-hate mode. I'm excited about it. I hope I'm right, haha.
Something about him rubs me the wrong way darnit. But in a good way.

^This. I personally thought he sounded pretty pissed (can't blame him).

Ok, I just thought people were dreading that he might be the jerk character Priestly talked about. Personally, I don't know how anyone can be considered a jerk by Priestly when he is the master of

I'm counting on Fenris being the aforementioned jerk.
A guy with a past you should feel sympathetic towards him for but an attitude that punts all sympathy out the window. Sounds fun to write.
I'm not usually a fan of the bastards, but I could not resist Bishop. He's tied for first as my favorite. It's too bad they half-a**ed his romance.

And oh maker, I simply must gush about his FENtastic voice. Definitely making me think (yummy) bastard.
I actually think Brandon Keener might have some competition.

Are you telling me that you are surprised that a character thread (particularly *THIS* character thread) takes a small piece of dialogue and constructs an entire personality for him?
I swear, basd on the amount of personalities this thread has given him, Im almost surprised that the writers haven't changed him into the MPD guy
