As others have said, Hunter, she's got the tightest body of any old lady I've ever seen. Get her in some Chasind robes and you'll see what I mean.



Then again, I did want Kreia to be romanceable, too. Cougar mentors, ftw!

I love the exchange between Wynne and Zevran about Wynne's bosoms. Sounds like Zevran has a thing for cougars, too...

One of my favorite Alistair-Wynne details:



If you play anything other than a mage, Alistair refers to her as his "favoritest" mage

Playing a mage and romancing Alistair, he refers to her as his second-favorite mage

(NOTE: Noble Origin Spoilers in this post!!!)
No big surprise, I'm sure, but I really loved having Wynne as a member of my PC's 'surrogate' family.
When her character profile and video first showed on the DAO web-site I knew she was going to be a permanant addition to my Heroic character. From the get go she struck me as the Obi-Wan Kenobi to my Luke. The whole relationship with her really meshed for me story-wise as I was playing the Human Noble and (SPOILER!!!) seeing as you loose your family, Wynne takes the places of Bryce and Elenor Cousland quickly, much as Obi-Wan took the places of Owen and Beru.

I must share the admiration towards Sheryl Chee in the writing of Wynne, proving you could have a mentor in the game that was not a copy of 'every' old mentor type depicted in fantasy epics since The Hobbit. Wynne's story is strong, beautiful, sad, and engaging on every level. I truly find myself hesitant to play the dark Hero character since I know there will be no room for her, and I can not imagine the game without her.

On a side note, there were some moments I found myself drawn to Wynne in a romantic capacity. I suppose it had something to do with being drawn to someone who had my well being in mind at all times and was not so wrapped up in their own baggage that they could not stop for five seconds and ask my character, "I know you lost your entire family, how are you doing?" I mean, the only other person who does ask that is bloody Alistair. (Laugh) I suppose the fact that, like Zevran mentions, Wynne is doing very well figure wise for her age might be a contributing factor as well. Regardless, given the interesting directions Mr. Gaider and other writers went with the game and it's characters, I would not have been all that surprised to eventually get a conversation option from Wynne along the lines of, "It looks to be a very cold night, would you like me to share your tent with you?" Although, that would have been a little weird....:unsure:

I like Wynne as well. When she thanks you after completing her personal quest it actually sounds like she means it. I think the only other character who does that is Sten.

Her party banter is also amusing for the most part - with Shale and Alistair in particular.

Wynne's VA is Susan Boyd (otherwise known as Susan Boyd Joyce or Susan Lawrence ).

No idea how old she is, but according to her resume she's ben in the "industry" for 30+ years

Meh. She was cliche to me, but as I paragon myself I can't complain.

Wynne is my favorite not-Alistair character. Yes, she's a nosy old grandmother, but she's so sweet about it. :)

Also it looks like her favourite spell is "Raise Boobs". Try to undress her, same as Morrigan :D

Wynne for the Win!



She's Dragon Age Origins on Cheat Mode. Hehe. You have to WORK HARD to die with her in the party below Nightmare Difficulty.



Killing her in the Mage's Tower is like entering a championship boxing match and just before the fight starts, sawing your right leg off.

I don't know, I think Wynne was one of the more cliched and poorly written companions. When she started talking to me about responsibility and being a Grey Warden, I thought "Oh, great. This is supposed to be that 'wise mentor' type that exists in every epic video game". I pretty much had an idea of what she was going to say before she was going to say it.



I dunno, when it comes to mentor companions in RPG's, Wynne absolutely cannot touch Kreia from KOTOR 2. Not even close.

I both like and get annoyed by Wynne, but I do appreciate that BioWare has, over the years, given us some kick-ass older characters - Keldorn in BG2, Canderous in KotOR, Duncan, Loghain, Riordan and Wynne in DA:O. I'm a 42 year old woman who can bench press her own weight and I am glad BioWare recognises that you can still be a badass once you hit middle age.



One thing about Wynne, though, is that she has a remarkably firm jawline for someone who speaks as though she is over 70. I'd like to know who her surgeon is.

I also find her annoying and preachy, but that's not to say I don't like the fact she's in the game. She's supposed to be like that, She's a bit like my conscience, i need someone like that in the group. Soem of my characters don't take her along, some do, it depends on how I RP them.



I think the character is very well made. And I do appreciate having older companions in the group (even if she does have the body of a 20 year old ;) )

wynne reinforces my belief that humans begin outliving their usefulness at age 45.

Not if you give her the Arcane Warrior specialization... Switch on Combat Magic and GTFO of her way LOL.
I very much enjoyed taking her out of those grandma robes and putting her into full-set black dragonbone armor.  She instantly became the coolest old person outside of OT Darth Vader.
As for all the ppl wanting romance options with her... jesus why??!  I assume you like her chara because she's so motherly/grandmotherly.  Do you want to romance your mother/grandmother????!?!!1  :sick:

I'm a wynne fan...
She's like a mother to our characters, in so many ways; Healing, advice and her sacrifices to help...
(Her willingness to leave the safety of the circle, for one -- and the rest of you know the rest)

Thats understandable but he said he connects with her character , like they have stuff in common


 I connect well with old people.

Because I'm interested in newer history (the past 100 years), and like to talk about the political and social developments in western society... things that most people my age don't care about before they're old geezers themselves.
