Just quoting you to say that your avatar is totally epic.

Also, Merril + 1 for the new info about her. Not going to post here because it's easily available and don't want to spoil it for the unsuspecting. =P

Thanks :) if you haven't seen it there's the bigger the picture I made (and created the avatar from) here too.

Hah, I may have accidentally spoiled that for a few people a page or two back, infact we were speculating on it before it was even mentioned by that German magazine, so I wouldn't worry about that. ;)

After learning that the dalish have settled on Sundermount, the screenshot with F!Hawke talking to, obviously Merrill makes much more sense, since Sundermount's description says unholy creatures (demons, ect.) lurk the area.

Wow, that's awesome. My skills at editing, drawing, or any equivalent artistic talent rapidly approach zero as the number of lines (or pixels as it were) increase.

Alrighty then. I'll quote my bloodthirsty (Terrible, just terrible) post that I made in antoher thread. =P

This cheers me immensely. I want to see her
like drain the blood out of a person's body just by glaring at them
hard enough or something equally ridiculous and awesome.

As you can tell, I'm a budding fan of blood magic. =P

Literally it says " Marethari bedrängt sie sich Hawke anzuschließen". A good translation would be "Marethari pressures her into following Hawke". It does not sound as if she is forced to leave the clan forever and more like she has important business to do elsewhere like it was the case of a Dalish Warden in DA:O.


I believe she may not be exiled after all, maybe sent with Hawke to Kirkwall againt her will maybe? damn I really want a character reveal! :o

Random character (thinking): Hmm, I think I annoyed her.
But aww. She's so cute it's not like she's going to do anything.

Wait... why is my blood boiling? :blink:

Oooh, nice - That roughly translates to "Marethari urges her to join Hawke", which doesn't sound like exiled to me. :)

Hawke (staring off in the distance): Looks like three mages, and two warriors, we'll have to flank these mages and then deal with the warriors alone.
Merrill (distracted): wouldn't it be better if we....... (activates blood control)
Hawke (seeing the mages and warriors tearing each other apart): Or we can do that.

I hope so, I don't really oppose the idea of her being exiled but I wish if she is that there's a better reason for it than "She's a blood mage".

Hey everyone, I just found a new magazine article here:

http://social.biowar...1/index/5739457



It looks as though it confirms Merrill is a companion, she is a form of blood mage called Dalish Pariah, and we will find her in Sundermount to deliver the amulet. Looks like she'll be an early companion :D

That's actually normal...though that's not stopping people in the Varric and Fenris threads( mostly from the fangirls)...or the Aveline thread...though she seems to be gaining pages off of the sheer fact we got to hear her voice for a few seconds in the last dev diary...

Who at Bioware decided that F-cups would look good on a body that petite...? Looks absurd. They stick out past the sides of her chest far enough to seem like her arms will be clipping through them during her walk animation, unless she walks around with her arms straight out to the sides.

That was pretty informative and makes sense.
I had just assumed it was more Varric-hyperbole. Still could be I suppose. Gaider didn't seem entirely certain of his own explanation.

It could still be that Marethari wants to get rid of her.  Otherwise it would be quite a sacrifice for a keeper to send her first away, I'd think.

I'm going to go with the mirror in the ruins theory with the Dalish Warden that inherently changed something about Merrill( basically it gave her some sorta power-up, which I know is a cliche that JRPGs use, but sue me that's what I'm used to). And the thing about delivering that amulet to the Dalish, I surely hope that doesn't come back to bite us in the ass in future DA's or later on in this story( from a Flemeth perspective, not a Dalish Elf one)...

??  She was only there when Duncan smashed the mirror, along with Fenarel if you brought him.  I guess you could say she might have gotten taint sickness but then she'd just be dead.

Seeing as the magazine article states that Merrill specialization is "Dalish Pariah" and pariah means outcast or exile, i'm thinking that she might have done something like blood magic summoning and she is a sort of outcast amongst her clan if she isn't exiled.
