EVERYONE!  I am so close to finding Anders in Fable 3.  I just heard his voice mentioning some delivery in a large crowd of people... now I just need to pinpoint which one he is.  STAY TUNED!

EDIT: DAMNIT !@#(*#(#(#

I keep hearing him say "Thanks, can you have it delivered please?" but every villager I click on has a different voice.  I will find you, damnit.

Well... he was being pretty honest. Trying to pull away from the Chantry was a disaster and the recipe for that disaster included poop.

Ha! :P

Here's the conversation on YouTube: 

What's funny is my warden was all " It's about time they freed themselves! "    She was a bad influence on Anders.

No, just unrealistic. Possible, but unlikely, and it's a road many people have traveled and ended up damaged because of it.


Possible but unlikely. And the fact that it is possible means Zevran can do so. Trying to make him sleep around behind the Warden's back is contradictory to his characterization. 

You'd be surprised what people will agree to despite their better interests. There is a very deeply penetrating cultural expectation of monogamy associated with commited relationships; it's very easy to see the white picket fence, 2.5 children and spotless record of fidelity and think that's what a commited relationship means. Our cultural narrative paints monogamy as something that should be easy, and expected of everyone, and for many people who haven't given much thought to the matter, they don't realize it's possible to have a commited relationship without monogamy. If the Warden is Zevran's first real emotionally intimate relationship, it would be very easy for him to enter into that sort of commitment thinking it will change him before discovering it doesn't. He doesn't have to be dishonest with the Warden. This kind of thing happens constantly.

So telling the Female Warden he was bisexual was in his better interest? (For a relationship with the Warden I mean) And again if it didn't change him he would say so. Also I'm fully aware you can have a relationship without monogamy. I just happen to believe honesty and respect is needed for any kind of relationship monogamous or otherwise to work. If I can't talk to you about how open/closed our relationship is we have far more problems than having an open/closed relationship and don't belong together. 

And yes, Thedas has a different culture, but it was crafted by people who live in ours, which indelibly affects its world.


Care to point out what culture similaries there were? Considering Zevran was quite open with who he was that the thought of being in an open relationship would cause him to lie and decieve the Warden. 

Especially considering if the Warden just wanted to "keep it casual" or sleep with another LI once Zevran hit love he dumps the Warden flat. (or forces the Warden to pick). 

Are you now saying Zevran is A-OK with the Warden only being with him but ra forbid the Warden do the same? (especially considering if you marry Alistair *while Alistair isn't in love with the PC*) he's perfectly okay with discussing it and the impact on the relationship? 

I just say this because I know a lot of people like Zevran, and while the "wild man tamed by his one true love" story is certainly very romantic, it never quite works out that way.

And Zevran wasn't wild as much as broken. But I do agree with the never quite working that way. The assumption whoever that Zevran also is like all the other cases is well...it's a blind assumption based off little evidence. (And hell even has heaps of evidence to go against it). 

Edit: do post this in the Zevran thread though. They'd give you a far better response than I will seeing as they know the character like the back of their hand. 

2nd Edit: And I have no interest in "Fixing" anyone. I can't stand Zevran. I slit his throat everytime I see him. But saying he'd cheat on the Warden? No. Just...no.

I feel as if the mods are going to come in and kick us for not taking this to the Zevran thread.

So, to keep this on topic... Anders' underwear monuments to you seem to imply he would never cheat on you (except with Justice), but would he be down for threesomes? Er, or is that foursomes?


Sadly he didn't seem up for a threesome when Zevran suggested sexy-times with Hawke. Pity.

In fact, he didn't even seem to like it when Hawke suggested that Justice was part of the 'threesome' with Anders.

Oh, completely honest. 100% honesty is what makes it possible. But when I was younger, I tried cramming myself into the "I can be monogamous for you" zone. It never worked out, let's leave it at that. As I got into my late 20's I got comfortable with being completely honest about who I was, and I was open about that with my husband when I met him. I'd never be any other way, now.

I do think Zevran would be honest. I believe that. He seemed perfectly comfortable with admitting everything else, so why not? I could see him possibly bringing up that conversation at some point if he truly isn't monogamous. But I think the game makes it so you can view him either way; monogamous or not, whichever you desire him to be.


Thanks for sharing that. I know it was a bit of a personal question. 

And that's the only thing that I care about. I can see Zevran in an open relationship or a closed one but either way he would be honest. He has little reason to lie to the Warden at that point. Especially with everything else he's confessed. He says himself he's many things but not a cheat.

preJustice - hell yes

postJustice - i imagine waaay too possesive and in love to share


At the point where he and Hawke are in a relationship, I think you'd have to catch him on a good old-Anders-y day. He might be happy to go along with it if he thought it would please Hawke, but on a bad day I can see him being far too clingy to contemplate letting anyone else touch his Hawke.

If he's anything like myself and other people I've met with mood disorders, I imagine that sometimes it would feel like you're dealing with two very different people. Not to mention that, in Anders' case, sometimes you literally are. No wonder he thanks Hawke for having so much patience with him. :?

I've never said Zevran would lie or deceive the Warden. But let's end this now, because this is off-topic and you seem to like making debates far more angry and personal than I'm comfortable with :P Chillax, dudebro.

Heh. These are good points. I got the feeling with Zevran that it might have been more about Zevran's personality.

As for the calling it a threesome thing, I think he just didn't want to think about how messed up it actually is, and that he's the one bringing this extra baggage to the relationship, yadda, yadda.

But I think you're right, ultimately. He's not down for anyone but Hawke. Darn it.

Oh come on you guys.
This is the Anders thread. That means we're all sitting by an e-fire, roasting e-Marshmallows and singing peaceful harmonic tones.
While secretly groping eachother when we think the victim isn't looking.

You're shadowing the peace, dude. B)

I think post-Justice Anders would eschew threesomes just because he considers himself to be so dangerous. After three/six years, Hawke knows what s/he is getting into, but I think he'd still worry, even on a good old-Anders-y day.

Ahhh, we're now discussing promiscuity. Good, good.

I'm very proud that my magey LadyHawke just nailed Fenris, Isabela and Anders in a row (Anders didn't complain about sloppy thirds). Just a shame you can't get Merrill into the mix, too.

I don't think Anders would be down for threesomes sheerly because he's so clingy.

That said he doesn't seem to think of Isabela as a threat so maybe he would go for her?

But there's Justice...but knowing Izzy that would only get her more intrigued.

It's too bad you can't ask. Even if you got turned down.

And now I'm wondering if rival Hawke and Justice ever had hatesex.

I blame that entirely on this thread. :pinched:

Sometimes I think my Hawke just wanted to look at Anders while Justice was out and be like "There can be no compromise! Now GTFO!" And punch Anders so hard it knocks Justice out into the fade.

I wonder about that. When he's warning off Hawke (the female one, at least) when you first meet him, he fends her off like she's asking him to take wedding vows, not just flirting. Paraphrasing here, but "not a safe man to be involved with" and "a year or so ago we could have had something," both speak to me like he thinks she's offering a relationship at that point, instead of just a night or two.
I know during Awakening I always tend to think of Anders as someone who's up for a bit of casual, no-strings-attached fun, but this is whispering "serial monogamist" in my ear. Is it a misinterpretation, a change in personality, or is Hawke just inescapably The One?

You can. You just have to boot her after sex.
