I played Amell and mage Hawke, yah, posted the decisions earlier... though in retrospect, it wasn't so much about giving finger to the Chantry, as believing in freedom with unhealthy dose of idealism

[EthanDirtch]

I'm still going to re-play DA:O again, but so far my 'main' or 'canon' playthrough is thus:

-Human Noble, male, warrior, 2Hander
-Paragon; did the 'right thing' all the time
-Saved Redcliffe, saved the Arl's son and the Arlessa
-Romanced NO ONE; devoted himself to the Grey Warden cause
-refused the Dark Ritual; again, devoted himself to the Grey Warden cause
-chose to kill Loghain (allowing Alistair to do it, if I remember correctly)
-made friends with everyone to the max friend reputation

Since this 'main' character died, I did NOT use him for DA: A and have yet to use him for DA2.

My "1A" main is a female city-elf dual-wielding rogue, who made mostly the same decisions, but romanced Alistair, accept the Dark Ritual allowing Alistair to consummate it, friends with everyone, killed Loghain and allowing Alistair to take the throne (and thus ending the romance), left with Zevran and Sten to travel the world for a bit, came back, took control of Amarenthine, allowed everyone to join and friended with everyone, allowed the Architect to live, chose to save the city, took Anders, Justice, the other dwarf whose name I forget, Vigil's Keep mostly survived.

I used her playthrough for DA2 so far, but have not settled on a 'canon' for DA2 yet.

Did anyone else play a LEGACY MAGE?

That is, a mage!Hawke who was related to the mage!Warden, who both fought for the freedom of mages? Oh man, it's so epic. My canon Dragon Age is a legacy of giant middle fingers to the Chantry.

I'm actually doing this with a pro-templar/Chantry-apologist mage now.

Nice.    I love my pro-templar mage from DA:O, it just makes it so... I don't know, complex.  I am thinking of doing the pro-templar mage in DA2, but I'm liking the warrior I built a little more - and it doesn't quite make sense to me that if I was a mage AND in the Chantry camp that I wouldn't be living in the Circle quietly.  I mean, my Grey Warden had an excuse in being a Warden (having to save the world too actually) and not being able to submit to Chantry custody while holding Warden status and secrets and such.

Agreed.  It's...weird.  But having done it the other way, weird is nice.

I'm sort of rolling with: both the Warden Amell and Hawke believe that complete religious devotion is the only way to remain demon-free.  So, really, no freedom is possible: as a mage, you must either live in submission to the Chantry's religion (and the templars by extension), or you're enslaved to a demon (or soon will be).  These two Amells believe that mages should be integrated directly into the Chantry, instead of separated in the Circle.

So... that's my crazy rationale this time.

I ended up with a very similar thought for my Circle mage - that being a "good" mage is possible, if you are devoted to the Maker and use your magic to serve, not rule.  She has such a terrible time being made the noble of Amaranthine - it goes against all Chantry teachings, mages cannot hold title!  Thankfully, her devotion to the Grey Warden's cause (having been put in them obviously to serve with her magic) allowed her to function as a leader so long as she is serving a greater good by doing so.  I guess my Hawke could take a similar stance in Free March - maybe rationalize that living free she is using her magic to counter the horrible blood magic around town.  Could work.

I did that too. But IIRC the Warden really couldn't do that much for mage freedom (except for the boon, but that was bugged if Alistair was king)

[ipgd]

DA:O
- Male Human Mage.

- All followers at 95-100 approval, all companions recruited and all companion quests completed

- Recruited Shale, betrayed and killed the Demon in the basement of Honnleath
- Betrayed the demon in Soldier's Peak, allowed Avernus to live and continue his research

- Gained support of Anora, all nobles and the Chantry in the Landsmeet, recruited Loghain
- Alistair and Anora made king and queen
- Preformed the Dark Ritual with Morrigan
- Took the mage boon, chose to pursue Morrigan.

DA:A
- All (or nearly all) side-quests completed, 100% of the world discovered
- Mostly good/non-confrontational choices
- All followers at 95-100 approval, all companions put through the joining and all companion quests completed
- Fully upgraded the keep

DA2:

- Recruited all followers
- Friends with Aveline, Varric, Anders, Isabela and Bethany
- Rivals with Fenris, Merrill and Sebastian
- Romanced Anders
- Bethany joins the Circle

- Spared Anders and ran off with him and Isabela to become terrorist pirate cat farmers

Or, that will be my canon import chain whenever DA3 rolls around. The DAO import I used for my first DA2 playthrough was basically that but with a rogue who romanced Zevran, but having an Amell godbabydaddy seems like it would be a more interesting future import if Morrigan and the warden ever get addressed again.

[silver-crescent]

In terms of canon DA2 save for import, I for one am just going to wait until after all the DLC is out, so that I can pick the best options in DA2 based on that as well.

[Emperor Iaius I]

My canon playthrough of Origins was a female Chantry-loving Cousland who married Alistair. It just felt more connected to the story (and therefore more epic) as a result, even though I enjoyed playing an evil blood mage more. However, with the advent of the Amell-Hawke family, it seems that the mage may have more of a connection (albeit only through blood) after all.

In DA2, I went with the evil blood mage, because it actually fit directly into the plot this time. Well, it did insofar as being an apostate descended from a Tevinter magister does.

[highcastle]

Origins
-Male human noble
-Romanced Zevran
-Sided with the elves, Zathrian sacrificed himself
-Sided with Caridin, Bhelen's king
-Sided with the mages
-Killed Kolgrim
-Jowan did the ritual to free Connor
-Alistair hardened and made king on his own
-Avernus left alive to continue safe research
-Made Al do the ritual with Morrigan

Awakening
-Recruited everybody
-Saved Amaranthine
-Everybody but Sigrun lived through the assault
-Killed the Architect (not that Nate seems to realize it)

DA2
-Mage male Hawke
-Romanced Anders
-Recruited everybody
-100% friends everybody but Merrill (100% rival)
-Carver joined the Wardens
-Earned the Arishok's respect and dueled him
-Sent Feynriel to the Dalish then to Tevinter
-Did all companion quests
-Sided with Orsino and the mages
-Spared and ran off with Anders

[GSSAGE7]

Oh, this will be fun.

Origins:
- Male Cousland Rogue. Duelist/Assassin. Snarky and a bit grey (lolpun), but always tries to find a peaceful solution first. I'd call him Neutral/Chaotic Good. Dual-weilding, but has the rapid fire skill in the archery tree, just in case.
- Helped Kitty on the condition that she not possess the girl. Mikel Cousland killed her when she went back on her word.
- Refused to let innocents die, and fought off the walking dead of Redcliffe.
- Left for the Circle, after Alistair suggested that they could help Connor.
- Let Greagor do what he wanted in the circle, which happened to be "let them live"
- Romanced Morrigan until she wanted the break up, ended the game with Leliana.
- Leliana was hardened after Marjolaine was allowed to go.
- Alistair was hardened after making a promise to help Golddigger, I mean Goldana.
- Learned how to become a duelist "the fun way". Leliana joined too.
- Arcane Warrior Wynne went into the Fade and lopped the head off the Desire Demon.
- Got Zatharian to end the curse.
- Killed Flemeth. Sadly, Hawke un-killed her.
- Helped the Drydans regain Soldier's Peak, re-killed Sophia, let Avernus continue his work ethic (but not before enjoying the fruits of his completed research), and forged the mighty Starfang Longsword.
- Thought about defiling the ashes, but once the Guardian told him that the Dragon was just a dragon, didn't go through it. Kolgrim didn't fall for "I totally did it. Can't you tell?" and was slain, along with his Dragon. Genetivi was allowed to spread word of the Urn's discovery, now that the base was dragon/crazy cultist free.
- Added Champion of Redcliffe to his titles.
- Bhelen's guy found the Warden first, and became King.
- Branka got a dagger through the chest, and Caradin discovered that golems do not, in fact, float in lava.
- Tried to make the slaver leave without the elves, but was forced to fight him off when he refused. Allowed him to live afterwards.
- Won the Landsmeet almost unanimously, Alistair married Anora, and Loghain was made a Grey Warden. My bromance with Alistair suffered.
- Returned to Ostagar to slaughter whatever Darkspawn remained. After regaining Duncan's weapons and Cailan's gear, the King was given a pyre, despite Loghain's complaints.
- Did all of the Mage's Collective, Antivan Crows, Chanter's Board, most of the Blackwatch missions, and became known as the Dark Wolf.
- Accepted the Dark Ritual once Morrigan said that Leliana wouldn't want someone to have to sacrifice themselves.
- Went off to travel with Leliana.
- When Zevran asked if he could tag along, I said yes.
- Oghren was getting drunk, with Felsi a few feet away.
- Sten was off back to report to the Arishok, with his sword.
- Shale and Wynne were off to Tevinter, both personal quests completed.

Awakening:
- The First Warden wouldn't let Mikel Cousland bop around Thedas, and became Warden-Commander while Leliana met the Grand Cleric.
- Decided to go on the offensive to stop the conspiracy. Had a fun talk with the second Dark Wolf.
- Promised Derren that he would make up for giving his land to Paxton.
- Promised Alec's family would be fed if he became a soldier.
- Kept the noble imprisoned until the end of the long investigation. So far, no other suspects.
- Threatened the Peasants to leave. They shouldn't have got him mad after he had to see 3 Broodmothers at once.
- Told Sigrun to keep her ring, and paid in her companion quest.
- Fell for the bait during Anders quest, and butchered the templar.
- Promised Aura that the one responsible for Kristoff's death would get a sword through the head.
- Told Oghren that he can be a part of his kid's life even if he isn't a family man.
- Recruited Velana, and completed her companion quest.
- Conscripted Nathaniel so he could redeem his family name, and had an awkward moment with his sister.
- Had the soldiers defend as much as they could.
- Locked down the Deep Roads entrance in the basement, gave Wade every mineral deposit I could find, gave Dorkin enough Lyrium sands to blow up a small fortress, and fully upgraded Vigil's Keep's walls. Hopefully those last two don't work against each other.
- Wade created Vigilance and the Heartwood Bow, two pieces of equipment that would stay with him for the rest of his adventures, until the crows stole Vigilance.
- Refused to allow more innocents to die, and refused to abandon Amaranthine. Let The Messenger go after the battle.
- Took Nathaniel, Justice, and Velanna to battle The Mother. On the way, an alliance with The Architect was formed. Justice was not pleased, but went along with it anyway.
- Shoved the murder knife through The Mother's head, just as promised.
- Velanna took off years later in the deep roads, Anders came back (most likely for Ser Pounce-A-Lot), Oghren's letters got proofread every time, Sigrun stayed, Justice gave up Kristoff's body, and Nathaniel took an arrow for Fergus. All of them were close to Cousland, even Nathaniel.

Golems of A.
- One Harvester down, hundreds released. Oops.

Witchhunt:
- After being told that Flemeth was still alive, Mikel stayed in Thedas to prepare on his end, after getting one last kiss. Hopefully Leliana doesn't find out.

DA 2
- Snarky (Noticing a pattern?) Female Mage
- One year with the mercenaries.
- Carver became a Grey Warden, rather than dying like Wesley.
- Sided with the Mages. Orsino seemed the saner one at the time.
- Merrill destroyed the Mirror and stayed with her love.
- Aveline went Fight Club on Hawke, but stayed with her afterwards.
- Had a one night stand with Isabela, but nothing came of it. She came back with the book, though.
- Flirted with Sebastian whenever the chance arose, but nothing ever happened, especially after what happened next.
- Anders lived. He better fix the problem he helped start.
- The mage-hating elf had an interesting romance with Mage Hawke, despite disagreeing on almost everything.
- Hawke's favorite dwarf had to leave her eventually. Too bad too.

[KodiakAsh]

When I saw the "No Compromise" game in DA2 as an option I immediately had to go and play as a Dwarf Noble named Machiaveli for Dragon Age Origins replay.

Origins Choices:
1. Sided Werewolves.
2. Sided Bhelen, kept the Anvil.
3. Abandoned Redcliffe village to be slaughtered.
4. Annulled Tower with every Mage dead (let first Enchanter get turned into abom by not using Litany).
5. Defiled Sacred Ashes with Dragon Blood.
6. Did not take Morrigan deal to purposely sacrifice Loghain.

Leilana: Hardened and Kept ("You will remember who you are talking to!").
Sten: Kept.
Dog: Kept.
Ohgren: Kept.
Alistair: Exiled.
Morrigan: Abandoned group night of battle.
Zevran: Killed during assassination attempt.
Loghain: Sacrificed.
Wynne: Killed as part of Tower Annulment.
Shale: Killed at Caridin/Anvil.

Awakenings Choices:
Basically I was a complete tyrant. Executed everyone I could and put down rebellions. Always took the most profitable path, such as stealing land that nobles were fighting over to pay for the war.

When it was time I let Amaranthine burn and went back to Vigil Keep. Also decided to kill the Architect ensuring blights would go on forever to ensure the need for the Grey Wardens always as a major force in the land.  Below is their status and if Kept their reaction to me.

Anders: Kept-Hated.
Ohgren: Kept-Liked.
Justice: Kept-Hated.
Nathaniel: Executed.
Velanna: Refused to make Warden.
Sigrun: Kept-Liked.

Witch Hunt:
No one betrays the Warden Commander of Feralden and lives to tell the tale and so Morrigan had to die.  If she had left after, I woulda let her go no questions asked like Sten.  But leave me, night of the battle, as the only healer?  **** gotta die.


For DA2 I tried to keep a bit lighter and regretted it.  My first playthrough as a Mage was half joking and keeping my party members all close and I regretted it (but that kinda went with DA2 entirely).  Warden Commander was already a warrior, want to either make a Rogue or Mage for a future playthrough.  I probably will do something like a Mage as my legit campaign to add onto my existing Save (Epic Arc) and side with the Mages and do something like a Rogue on a super low difficulty with another one of the default campaigns and side with the Templars.  All I know is I'm keeping Anders outa my damn parties, one game was enough.

This is exactly what I did.  A Liberatarian Circle mage (Soria Amell) in DA:O, and my crazy Anders-mancing apostate (Natale Hawke) in DA2.  Thedas is so screwed.

[Apathy1989]

Here are my first play throughs. Always extremely satisfying. After your
first play through dragon age is only about tactics and finding out
what you missed anyway.


DA:O
- Male Human Mage, later Arcane Warrior
- Recruited all except dog, friended most (Sten and Zevran didn't get very high)
- Romanced Leliana
- Did not harden Leliana or Alistair
- Saved Redcliff
- Sided with the Mages
- Sided with Bhelen (seems like a nice, modern guy at first glance)
- Destroyed the anvil
- Lifted the Curse for the Werewolves
- Was betrayed by Zevran in Denermin
- Told Sten to f**k off cause he was annoying me
- Had Anora and Alistair marry
- Lost the landsmeet, but killed logain.
- Rejected Morrigan's Offer
- Sacrificed myself to slay the arch daemon

DA2
- Male Warrior Hawke, sword and shield.
- 1 year as a Mercenary
- Recruited and friended everyone
- Bethany was left at home, so ended up in the circle
- Isabela returned (that was a good feeling)
- Romanced Merrill, and realised I am a terrible enabler since I supported her all the way with her mirror.
- Sided with the Mages since my sister is a mage
- Saved Anders (felt like killing him, but he was my dedicated healer)

Edit: I mostly play these characters in a good/peaceful way, with my personal comedic sense coming through. Seriously DA2 has so many funny options, its hard not to choose them unless its a very grave discussion topic.

Another edit: I had DAA, but since I was dead felt stupid to carry on.

[Katilina]

Let's see, lets see. I'll put down what I mostly remember, but I'm sure I'll forget stuff.

DA:O

Natavi Cousland- sole surviving member of the Cousland family, played ultimately good albeit a bit brash in the beginning. Basically, Female Human Noble Warrior.
--- On that note: Made a point to use any conversation that brought up my destroyed family and the backstab by the Howe's. Which made what happened at Ostagar even more destructive. Duncan had saved her, and made her a better person only for him to be killed due to Logain's trechery. Hit a nerve I tried to continue with as much as possible throughout the rest of the game
-Recruited everyone, friended everyone, and had extensive conversations with all.
-Romanced Alistair.
-Hardened both Alistair and Lelianna (Marjorlanes bow was not worth it- she was dual daggers all the way).
-Sided with mages, Irving was best around .
-Sided with Elves; killed Zathrian.
-Sided with Harrowmont- Bhelen screwed over his own family, that obviously, would not sit right with my Warden.
-Sided with Caridin; he sacrificed himself for the good of all- albeit at Oghren's slight depression.
-Saved Redcliffe Village.
-Found out Alistair was a bastard prince "Should I call you Prince Alistar now? *Chuckle*"
-Saved Conor and Isolde, Alistar was grateful.
-Did not taint Urn. Saved the Arl.
-Did not take Kitty's offer, instead lied to her and Amalia came to her own senses and ran away. Killed Kitty. Felt good.
-Now to Denerim for the Landsmeet!
-Rescued Anora, tried to explain she was kidnapped but she turned on me... that's gonna bite her in the butt later.
-Killed Slavers.
-Went to the Landsmeet; lied to Anora that I would let her take the throne HA. Gained enough support to take out Logain. Killed him and it felt good.
-Alistair rules, with me by his side.
-Took some sweet convincing to have him get it on with Morrigan but I pointed out this 'was the only way to be together'. He did it.
-I got the final kill on the demon, killed it, and everyone lived.
-Queen bizches! I'm nobility again! Woo!
-Oh wait no, I'm missing. Guess Alistar gets to roam around without his 'ball and chain'. Jerk.

DLC:
-Helped Avernus take down Sophia, then Avernus killed himself.
-Cremated Cailian's body; with Alistar.
-Couldnt help but let Morrigan go through the Eluvian alone. Still so many questions.

DA2:
-Female Warrior Hawke. Alteria. Just trying to do good, protect my family, build a life...with a bit of humor mixed throughout.
-Carver died.
-Sided with the Smugglers in the first year.
-Paid my own way into the Deep Roads.
-Bethany went to the Circle.
-Sent Feynriel to the Dalish, then to Tevinter.
-Gained the respect of the Arishok. Later killed him One VS. One.
-Told Isabela she could keep the relic, I'm a sucker for friends... though... didnt have enough friendship with her to make her return.
-Friends with all, save for Isabela who ran off and Sebastian at the end. Jerk, you bessa not come back less you want yer ass whooped.
-Helped Aveline get married to Donnic, then kill her old boss.
-Helped Merrill get the Arulin'holm.. though begrudgingly (played it as I didnt know what Eluvians were). Killed Marethari, spared the Dalish by taking responsibility for Merrill.
-Helped Anders... wow that worked out well.
-Helped Fenris with all quests. Had him kill his sister.
-On that note, romanced Fenris.
-Sebastian stayed in the Chantry (again that worked out well @_@).
-Spared Anders; because I could see it wasnt going to help much anyhow. Meredith was out for blood.
-Sided with Mages. Even had Fenris helping me. No one turned against me.
-Ran away to the woods? I dont know, I'm missing. D:

[UrsulaCousland]

DA:O:
- FemCousland, romanced Alistair (shocking, I know)
- Dual-wield warrior (RIP), tried to do the right thing whenever possible
- Ended the Curse, put Harrowmont on the throne (Big mistake)
- Recruited/MaxFriended everyone
- Convinced Alistair to do the ritual, made Anora queen, dragged Alistair off into the temporary sunset.

DA:A:
- Same Femcousland, recruited everyone
- was suspicious of Justice
- Became BFFs with Nathaniel and Sigrun, practically an aunt to Ogren's child
- Didn't finish, so technically spared the Architect, even though I planned to kill him

DA2:
- Stabby, nice with sarcastic tendencies rogue
- very conflicted - knows the dangers concerning mages, but loves her sister dearly
- smuggler for a year
- Bethany dies in the Deep Roads (Anders skeeves my canon rogue out)
- FriendMances Fenris; BFFs with Varric and Aveline, occasional Isabela drinking buddy
- convinces both Varric and Fenris to spare their siblings
- tends to side with the templars, but is worried about the rumored excesses, and doesn't trust Meredith, though Cullen appears to be a decent guy
- executes Anders. That bastard.

I tend to play more heroic characters, but I love that you don't have to be a dead serious hero.

[Vhalkyrie]

Trying to remember:

DAO:
- Elyssannah Cousland - Dual Wield warrior.  Lawful Neutral.  Merciless anti blood mage.
- Romanced Zevran.  Always intended to be Queen with Alistair.  I was going to be faithful, but I found out he had to do the ritual with Morrigan, so I wasn't going to waste some fun time.
- Romanced Alistair, hardened.  Broke up with Zevran after being asked to choose.
- Hardened Leliana.
- Full friendship with Morrigan.
- Sided with Circle.  I needed to at least try to save the mages before Annulment.  Saved the Circle. Killed Uldred. Saved Irving.
- Saved the mayor and the dwarf in Redcliffe.  No one died during the assault.
- Flirted with Teagan.  He was not romancable, darn it.
- Sent Morrigan into the fade.
- Saved Connor.
- Ordered Jowan killed for poisoning the Arl and for being a blood mage.  No mercy.
- Visited Andraste.
- Did not kill high dragon.  The temple was destroyed.
- Sided with Harrowmont.  Bhalen seemed too ruthless, but Harrowmont turned out to be a weak leader.  I may have reconsidered this if I knew the outcome.  Considering my lawful neutral warden, it didn't matter if Bhalen wasn't a good guy, just if he was a good leader.
- Destroyed the Anvil.
- Sided with werewolves.
- Killed Sophia at Soldier's Peak.
- Convinced Avernus he needed to die for his sins.  Blood mage and torturer.  He helped me close the veil, then submitted himself willingly for execution.
- Did not drink Avernus' potion.  Blood magic - do not want.  (Though I used a save game to see what would happen)
- Rescued Anora.  She turns on me.  I was always going to depose her, anyway.
- Convinced Ser Cauthrien to let me pass without a fight.  Ser Cauthrien was honorable.  I did not want to kill her. Loghain was no longer the man he used to be.  She agrees on matter of honor. 
- Landsmeet.  I'm popular!  Landsmeet sides with me.
- Execute Loghain.
- Propose marriage to Alistair in front of everyone!  Not as romantic as it sounds.
- Lock Anora in tower.
- Alistair does ritual with Morrigan.  I know it's a bad idea, but I figure I can deal with whatever Morrigan is up to later.
- Killed Archdemon. Rejoice!
- Chose to strip Howe's of the land and title.  I didn't know this was going to happen anyway.  Drat.
- Chased Morrigan in Witch Hunt.  Lied and told her I came after her because she was my friend.  I chased her to make sure she wasn't doing something evil.

Awakenings:
- Spared Nathaniel and made him a Grey Warden.  Allowed Nathaniel to redeem the Howe name, and not make the son pay for sins of the father.  I already killed Rendon Howe and stripped their land.  My Warden had no need for further retribution against Nathaniel.
- Spared Anders and made him a Grey Warden.
- Gave Anders a cat.
- Kept soldiers presence in Amaranthine over the farmers.  The city and trade needed to be protected.
- Hired elite spy to find out who was conspiring against me.
- Executed the deserter soldier.  Penalty for desertion is death.
- Promised to make up to Derren his lost land.  But a contract is a contract, and gave the land to the Amaranthine noble.
- Allowed the thief to join the militia instead of execution.  He becomes a war hero.
- Talked the peasants down from their revolt.
- Fully upgraded the walls and all defense upgrades.
- Helped develop dwarven gun powder.
- Defended Amaranthine.  Vigil's Keep is heavily damaged, but survives due to all the upgrades.  All companions not in my party live.
- Spared the Architect.  He's the first of his kind, and genocide is against my code of honor.  (I spared the Arachni in ME, and Geth in ME 2 for the same reason).  If there is a poor outcome because of it, so be it.
- Killed the mother with the Architect's help.

DA2:
- Lyssannah Hawke.  2 Handed Templar/Beserker Warrior.  Lawful Neutral.  Merciless anti blood mage.
- One year with Red Iron.
- Bethany goes to circle, and becomes grey warden (2 playthroughs)
- Rivalry with Merrill.  Breaks mirror.
- Romanced Fenris (friendship path).  (Romanced Anders on first playthrough, but it's been Fenris every time since)
- Faithful to Fenris.  Romanced no one else.
- Fenris kills Hadriana.
- Fenris kills Danarius.
- Fenris spares his sister.
- Varric spares Bartrand, and kills Bartrand (2 playthroughs)
- Varric destroys the shard, and keeps the shard (2 playthroughs)
- Isabela runs off with the book.
- Single combat with Arishok.
- Saved Fenryiel.  Allowed him to continue his study in Tevinter (maybe a mistake)
- Killed all blood mages encountered.
    - Idunna in the Blooming Rose.
    - Gascard.
- Told Emile to return to the Circle in On the Loose quest.  Told Meredith he was an idiot who said he used blood magic to impress girls.
- Extorted Thrask for money.  He was breaking Chantry law by hiding his daughter from the Circle.  Felt guilty for half the game, but then he kidnapped Bethany to blackmail me into supporting him.  Screw him.
- Executed Anders.
- Sided with Templars.
- Spared the mages who surrendered themselves without turning to blood magic during the final battle.
- Reunited with Bethany.  Kill Orsino and Meredith.
- Become Viscount.
- Disappear with Fenris in tow.

Awakenings:
- Spared Nathaniel and made him a Grey Warden.  Allowed Nathaniel to redeem the Howe name, and not make the son pay for sins of the father.  I already killed Rendon Howe and stripped their land.  My Warden had no need for further retribution against Nathaniel.

See when I ran as a cousland, I killed nathanial. Partially retribution, mostly because here is a rogue with motive to kill, sneaking around my house.

[What?]

I'm torn between canonizing two of my playthroughs for DA1. I'll just list the one I'm leaning toward more at the moment, though that could easily change depending on DA3's plotline.

DA:O
- A 'neutral evil' male elf-mage named Belinor Surana.
- Recruited everyone, made 'friends' with everyone.
- Romanced Morrigan
- Hardened Leliana and Alistair
- Sided with the Mages
- Sided with Bhelen
- Negotiated between the elves and werewolves
- Threw Alistair on the throne, locked Anora in the tower.
- Executed Loghain
- Accepted the Dark Ritual
- Killed the Archdemon, became the new Teyrn of Gwaren.

DA:A
- Used Belinor again, stayed 'neutral evil'.
- Recruited and became 'friends' with everyone.
- Upgraded Vigil's Keep entirely.
- Burned Amaranthine.
- Killed both Mother and The Architect.

Witch Hunt
-Went through the Eluvian with Morrigan after re-affirming the relationship.

DA2
- Male Hawke, mage, went the sarcastic/violent route.
- Recruited and made nice with everyone except Fenris, Carver, Sebastian, and Anders.
- Killed Carver in the Deep Roads.
- Isabela returned.
- Romanced Merrill.
- Sided with the Templars because he became a self-hating mage, after losing his mother to necromancy.
- Executed Anders for his little stunt.


And just because I can, my other potential canon is this one:

DA:O
- A 'neutral good', male, Dalish rogue named Nelinael Mahariel.
- Recruited and made friends with everyone.
- Romanced Leliana.
- Kept Leliana unhardened, but hardened Alistair.
- Sided with the mages again.
- Sided with Harrowmont in this file, convinced he'd  make the better king because he was superficially good.
- Killed the werewolves, being kin with the Dalish and all.
- Made Anora and Alistair get hitched.
- Turned Loghain into a Grey Warden.
- Forced Loghain to do the Dark Ritual.
- Killed the Archdemon, asked for lands for the Dalish.

DA:A
- Nelinael, stayed 'neutral good'.
- Recruited and made friends with everyone.
- Upgraded Vigil's Keep entirely.
- Saved Amaranthine.
- Allowed The Architect to walk.

Witch Hunt
-Let Morrigan go through the Eluvian after friendly good-byes.

DA2
- Male Rogue Hawke, sarcastic/diplomatic path.
- Recruited and made friends with everyone, except Anders.
- Bethany was sent the way of the Grey Wardens.
- Isabela returned.
- Romanced Merrill again.
- Sided with the mages, felt they were being mistreated.
- Killed Anders, because murder on a mass-scale is not cool.
