Maybe the amulet gives plot powers to both Hawke siblings, depending on which one is which class.

Thank you for the summary. I suspect most of this is covered by the demo (sans ritual) so it's probably not too spoilerific. I like the start of it, how you have to work your way up just too survive. Not sure what to think of the ritual seems like it could once again be "you're the choosen one" and that would be bad as I would not to be chosen once again. That said I'm very interested in what it could be.

I updated the OP with some other information from the article I didn't find too interesting, but you might.

I didn't read it cuz I dread spoilers, just searched the page for Fenris and no results. So that means that there is no Fenris in the first 5h, I'm disappoint :(

I hope it's not like that. I am dying to troll Carver with my PHENOMENAL COSMIC POWER.

Hawke: "I have a kickass amulet, and you don't, me-ow!" *dances*
Carver: *Rivalry +50*

Interesting, thank you for posting this.

I was wondering, do you whereabouts will the demo finish in regard to your list? Before you run into Varric and Anders, perhaps? Or as soon as Hawke reaches Kirkwall?


We see the opening prologue, and then I heard that it skips to meeting Isabela and doing her quest.

Giving Flemeth the amulet...yeah, of course, you could also make her shout "TRAP TRAP TRAP" :/

[*]Middle choice is sarcastic (we knew that), which led to Hawke asking Flemeth if she can teach him to be a dragon like a smart-ass. For those riveted to their seats at my entertaining summation, she says no. He also jokes later that Kirkwall "isn't brown enough for me".


Oh, Bioware. <3
Also, hooray for Walking Bomb! Now all we need is Mana Clash...

I hope Hawke gets the option to *facepalm* at that. You're in the Blightlands, surrounded by darkspawn, and you try to apprehend the first mage you see? Why ****** off the walking piece of artillery when you could befriend it?

I'm nervous about the Hawke being a different person thing. It better not involve possession. Because my Hawke isnt sharing his body with anyone.


Been there, done that with the Spirit Eater in MotB. I don't care for a repeat.

I can't wait to see the range of reactions Hawke can have in this scenario. I'm assuming that Wesley tries to apprehend mage Hawke as well...  Just try it, Templar. :devil:

The amulet may have something to do with a revelation, such as how Darkspawn was actually created, the truth behind the Chantry, sympathy for mages, etc. and then whatever is in it would attach to Hawke.



It'd explain why Hawke would then be completely driven to take power over Kirkwall after year one.

ha ha, well I was thinking it had something to do with the demon hand finisher Bethany seems to possess along with Hawke. We haven't seen any Merrill or Anders gameplay to see if they can do it too, I think.

The fact that one of the Hawkes is always an apostate seems to play an important role in the story, maybe the mage Hawke (whether Bethany or the PC) having this power is also part of that. Of course that would steal your warrior/rogue Hawke's thunder if s/he didn't also get something out of it.

The PCGamer review and Laidlaw's live chat said it' 50 hours on average, although I presume your mileage may vary.

I'm almost certain the giant hands of doom are what happens if you finish off an enemy with Crushing Prison.

Yeah, I remember that Priestly said something of that variety after the Destiny trailer. It is probably a special finisher though, akin to decapitation, as the revenant in the class trailer seemed to die from crushing prison too.

Maybe it is a modification that allows it?

Embarassed to admit it, but I've managed to miss these 'giant hands of doom'... unless it's the ripping a qunari in half trick from the trailer... could anyone point me at a vid that shows them?

demon hand finisher 

Fun fact I'm surprised so many people miss.  Those hands aren't demons.  They're Hawke's made bigger.
