Who's gonna be an evil/jerk/anti-hero Hawke?

Most of my Wardens were selfish, manipulative, arrogant, rude, greedy and borderline psychotic. And it was playing as those Wardens that I had the best playthroughs with.
Here are some of my favourite bits;
Hardening and romancing Leliana, then destroying the Urn of Sacred Ashes in front of her.
Sacrificing Isolde with Blood Magic and then make a deal with the Demon, totally screwing Arl Eamon over.
Seducing Gheyna and then bragging about it to Cammen. His reaction was hilarious.
Betraying Allistair at the Landsmeet. This is without doubt one of the highlights of DA:O.
Despite all my evil deeds, still being "The Hero of Ferelden".
I could go on but i'm sure you already get the jist of what i'm saying.
I'm so looking forward to being just as mean and heartless in DA2 as I was in Origins. How 'bout you lot?

EDIT: Not necessarily "Evil" though, just tired of the oppression and willing to do almost anything to fight it.

My mage will be anti-social and volatile.

Being a jerk to common folks for the sake of being a jerk doesn't really appeal to me.

Much more rewarding; That way you do not have many enemies until you are practically a force of nature. Cheers

Though I must admit, I tried the Gheyna seduction path just for fun, and Cammen's reaction was priceless

Pretty much this. Which is par for course, most of the 'evil' choices in Bioware games.
Aww, you pissed off a dirt farmer. . .who cares. At least you get to twirl your moustache!

I always try to do a hardass character eventually, but I can't really make myself play someone who is evil for the sake of being evil.

Not really, no. I would like being the relatively honorable champion of a misguided/questionable cause, if it's an option.

This. Or a Lawful Blue-aligned character. Honorable (in a sense) but pragmatic.

As opposed to my Chantry loving Warden, I'm going to play mage F!Hawke who is possessed by a desire demon.
That is awesome.

Also this is all lies and hubris. I am almost exclusively a chaotic good pragmatist.

I don't go out of my way to a jerk, but hey, if the opportunity presents itself: Why Not?

Actually, let me make an addendum: I just cannot do patently evil things at all.

The most fun I ever had when playing Origins was when I was being a total bastard to everyone.

One of my Hawke's may be like this though I must say the urn of sacred ashes part is ONLY thing, I had issues with going on the evil side of things with...actually my story with that was..that I defiled the urn, killed the guardian and Lelianna( wynne was taken out during the circle tower quest line)...then AFTER I got the spec, i then killed Kolgrim for his axe( the best or second best great-axe in origins) and killed the high-dragon so I could make my superior dragon bone armor.
2. since I sided with templars, in this playthrough...I took this route as well, though I couldn't do the desire demon thing, since I was a warrior on the playthrough( still led to alistar throwing up a hissyfit at me...would deal with him later.
3. This one was probadly , the most hilarious AND classic part of the entire playthrough....ONE I do NOT regret at all! Then after that i sided with the werewolves and killed all of the elves( as well as claimed zathrian's staff for Morrigan).
4. I sided with Bhelen(usually did this unless I was a dwarf noble) and saved the anvil of the void...Orzamammar usually comes out better this way oddly enough...(btw...just FYI... I saved shale after this quest so I could still use her and do her particular sidequest).
4. In all of my male HNO playthroughs, I basically did this to alistar AND eamon at the landsmeet... a. I don't harden alistar b. I take the throne with Anora as the King-Consort. c. I leave Loghain alive to join the party(only did that one once).
5. I go through with DR with Morrigan...and become what I am which is the "Hero" of Fereldan.
This was and ALWAYS will be by far and away my most EVIL playthrough in bioware game.( though my Dark-Side Sith Lord run in Kotor 2 was still more villianous.)
