Play a mage AND keep Bethany alive?

Does anyone know if this is possible, I assume in the demo it's not because of the limited scope. My dilemma comes from my distaste (at least thus far) for Carver. He's a bit of a poppet so I'd like to keep Bethany alive and let Carver get his, I realise for the demo it makes more sense to keep Carver alive if your the mage. If only for Party variety, but when it comes to the main game and the dozens of hours it'll take me to play through. I'd prefer not to be stuck with a character I just don't like.

No, it's not. Sadly.

No.



Mages get Carver, no exceptions.



Rogues/Warriors get Bethany, no exceptions.

I am fairly sure this is impossible in the full game as well.

Alas.

I assume its to stop the possibility of Carver + warrior/Rogue hawke combo.



There needs to be one mage in the family, for whatever reason.

Well that's dissapointing, guess I'll just have to mod it in myself. I personally think it would be better if everyone got Bethany no exceptions and Carver was just the designated "hero" for the prologue.

I dont think its possible since it will be very unbalanced at the start with two mages.

Modding that in will apparently mess up the game. There is also no toolset.

Possibly, but I really think it should be my choice to make.

Developers have strongly implied that any mods that alter this will break things.

The devs have stated that if you mod it so that Bethany and your mage are both alive, it will break the story they wrote.  So in the end, mod it if you wish, but you'll likely find that the story doesn't make as much sense.

From what I've seen, no.

It's either be a mage=Bethany dies

or be a warrior/rogue=Carver dies.

No.

And dwarves should be mages because, hey, it should be my choice to make.
Also, all love interests should be bisexual because it's my choice to make.
My Dalish should have been able to become the queen of Ferelden because it's my choice to make.

Do you want a rationale for what happened?

If you were a mage, your father always showed more affection to Hawke than Bethany, so she became closer to mom. If PC Hawke wasn't a mage, Bethany was his favorite and Carver ended up being the one closer to mom.

Bah, mage just became unplayable. For the first few hours at least, guess Ill just have to bite my tongue until I get enough members to replace the little sod and just not use him.

Well then, they should've made Carver less of a muppet. Alistair he is not.

I would think they didn't intend to make him like Alistair.

Obviously anyone who mods this will do so by replacing every flag in the game to Bethany if you choose Carver so while you'll have the Carver boy, the game will treat him like he's Bethany. It'll make absolutely no sense, but I'm sure there are people who like/hate one of the siblings enough to go with it anyways. :lol:

I'd rather mod his appearance than their story.
Edit: And I do like their appearance.

I never got why this is not an option. I get the party balance issues, but wouldn't it have been a better option to make Bethany a non-party member in case you picked her?



I think I would gladly trade in a partymember option to save her.

You mean, have her injured enough that she can no longer fight for ten years. So she's disabled?

Mod the appearance of Carver seems like a more viable option.
