Quick question that relates slightly to the theory that Anders is a companion and his potential to be romancable:
In Awakening when he made that comment about getting a Harem, did he specify a Harem of women? I seem to recall him being specific but I can't remember exactly what he said and I might have just assumed an all-female harem due to his previous line about getting a wife...
I haven't played Awakening yet (still sat in its box looking up at me imploringly) ... but I think we need to remember that the devs (Gaider specifically, I believe) have said they are not afraid of changing what has happened in the past if it makes sense for this game. Now, I've seen that in the context of the text at the end of the game telling you what happened to certain characters, along with how they might deal with the implications of different choices you can make for returning characters (i.e. the fact there is no established canon for some of them, so how do they choose what to make canon for the purposes of DA2?). It's not a stretch to suppose this might relate to a character's opinion on relationships.
That said, I'm not convinced our final character will be Anders, and even if it is that he will be romanceable. But, if it is him, and he is, he may not be exactly the same person from Awakening.
