Hawke should have children, just might not make 100% sense for S/S romances. Also, Fenris mini-breaks up with Hawke, so that wouldn't make sense. And the child would almost definitely be a mage. What with Hawke's family so mage-erific, 2/5 LIs being magey-wageys, (and Fenris having magic in his blood too, what with Varania and everything).

True. But as far as the lesbian couples, there's an opertunity to have sex with Isabella and Zevran, so there ya go xD
Think of it like how even lezbians use dildos, men are for that part of the male body and nothig else

Actually I'd dig it! 8D
and it would make more sense too! considering.... it only takes three-five years for some being together to get married and have a kid!

Oh-ahh-oh! It'd be like a deeper fable!

Lol. I'd love it just for the fact that I can't actually have kids >.<

Yea, I thought it was a bit odd that my Hawke and Anders have been living together for 3 years and never had a kid. They must have known some good contraceptive spells.


Anders is a Grey Warden, and the taint makes it very difficult for them to have children...Unless Alistair was just making up excuses when he wanted to dump me.

Anyway I like the idea of Hawke having a child.  Hope I don't get flamed for saying this because obviously a female Hawke is a strong and independent woman and all that, but her character's what? Like 30 by Act 3?  Personally, if I were that age I'd be thinking about children, especially if I had been in a committed relationship for years...and especially since it's an antiquated setting where in your mid-20s you'd be considered "past your prime childbearing years."

Although I agree with some earlier posters that given the game's trend, if there was a child, he/she would have died for sure.  So maybe it was for the better.

I like the idea, but there are too many variables to make it work in-game. Same-gender pairings being the leading factor, Anders' Warden taint being another. My DW ladyHawke might could have gotten pregnant when she and Isabela slept with Zerven but that was Act 3, so game would've ended before the first month was done. (So possible ;) )

Yes. Well, and to reduce costs she should have realized that she's pregnant only after the final battle, in the very end.

Given that BioWare's stance on family in DA2 appears to be "Kill'em all!! It worked for George R.R. Martin!", I'd say this idea could only have ended badly.


You have touched on a reason why I'm not a fan of GRRM. Too much killing to make "plot"? I think it's a little cheap. That's why I actually loved what happened to Bethany in my playthrough - sure, she *could* die. Or she could get stuck in the Circle, or with the Wardens, which are good plot points without killing.

That aside, it just wouldn't work. If you devoted that much time to it that it became part of the plot, you have a few catch points that would cause it to be a mess because it wasn't always going to happen. Just imagine THAT mess. As is, people complain about being railroaded into choices. I can see it now. "What?!? I was female and romanced Isabella! What happened?" Maybe one of them is secretly an Asari!?!

Then you get to the other side of it, where a male Hawke with a male romance are massively lacking parts. :) I can see it now, male Hawke and Anders or Fenris looking at each other in horror. "If that's even possible in some crazy way... 3-2-1-not it!"

In either situation, a pregnancy/child would force someone into something that doesn't go with the choices they made. And sure, while those things do already happen in games, I don't think it's one that would be needed.

And the Grey Warden point is fabulous. :)

If a female hawke romanced Anders and didnt kill he does make statement about having children.

The correct way to introduce a child into the story would have been to ahve the sibling be in a relationship that started at some point during your merc/thief period and then find out there is a child after the timeskip from the return from the deep roads. This allows for a niece/nephew who may/may not have magic, and allows hawke to have whatever romance options he/she wants. Depending on what happens with your sibling you may have to step in as a surrogate parent.

He mentions your children being able to grow up in a world without oppression.

ok.. here's the official announcement: in DA3, you get to control Hawke's kid (explained maybe somewhere) and you get to have for your companions THE warden and papa Hawke. XP oh and auntie Bethany who for some reason (explained maybe somewhere) is still young and hot (or maybe no need for explanation.. its just is. its the law hehe)

You mean the Warden falls in love with Bethany and they take part in a secret ritual that allows them to have a kid, which is then raised by aunt/uncle Hawke? How'll I convince Isabela/Fenris/Meril/Anders be them alive or dead to adopt that kid? Oh, I know! We must compete with Morrigan. Good.

...and then a pride demon slaughters them all, possesses Bethany and says "you could fight me, but I can get you +20% XP gain and 200 gold coins... How about it? We cool?"

Yea... kids in the game...
We asked for that in WoW and the best we could get was an orphan's day.
It seems having children in a game opens the floodgates for too much potential to have child predators and those with said fetishes to go wild. Just think of the mod requests!

If one wanted to make something in the game become 'personal' to Hawke, or something that 'matters' to them, the devs should have made it make a difference if your Hawke was a mage or a templar.

Additionally, it should have mattered if Hawke was a Blood Mage, but that matters not either, so finding something to be passionate about in the game, as a child could be potentially taken away if it were found to possess magical talent, most probably will not occur either.

I kept thinking during that part... yes Anders I know you LIE! This is just one more imaginary carrot to try to hold onto me....

Edit: Well, does Sandal count?

No, just... No. You'll end up summoning loads of desire demons all over the place. The Veil, you know, can be ****ed.

Bethesda has had no problem with children in Fallout.

Except that "Killing Kids" mod. That was fun.

I don't know why you folks continue to torture yourselves. Bioware isn't going to do anything like this for us. Not in-game, DLC or otherwise. It's debatable if they're listening to even the minor suggestions and requests that we make around here anymore.

Everything now is about cooking it as fast as you can, slapping it on a bun and pushing it quickly down the conveyor belt.
