Well...we are discussing a game and unlike you, we have enough of a life not to want to insult other people...

If you mean the OP question, then, no, it is not sexually transmittable. This is evidenced and proved by Maric and Fiona in the Calling.

I haven't read the whole topic, so if you mean a different question, please disregard this response.

NO. The Taint is not sexually transmitted.



It can however be sexually stimulated- but that is a different taint.

How can it be sexually stimulated? And what taint is not the Taint?

In The Calling when Duncan ends up with the mage girl the book says mages can be on the promiscuous side and Grey Wardens while are not encouraged to have relationships it's not forbidden either, if a Grey Warden has a child they have to give the child up.... I don't believe those children are tainted either? Though that seems odd especially if the Warden is the mother? Unless the placenta can filter out the taint from the child... O.o



More spoilers.... Fiona's child does not have the taint but her own taint mysteriously disappears, but if it hadn't would her child have been a born Warden?

Um..the answer is in The Calling (book) but I am not sure I should tell because it might be a spoiler.

That being said, each time Alistair/Duncan mentions his taint, am I permitted to giggle?



I will because that is an actual part of male anatomy ...

Let us not forget that Maric was heavily Medicated with Remille's potions all through that trip so it is not a standard case by any means...



He was taking those drugs every day...which means Maric's ejaculate would have had a massive concentration of 'taint resistance'.



If the child's blood was powerful enough to cure the mother of taint...there is probably a young man somewhere in DAO who is a Super Grey Warden from birth...completely uncorruptable. (and only Duncan and Fiona know who he is)

@ vilnii
Even if you disregard Maric not being infected by Fiona because of his "potions", you still have Duncan's own lady-chasing that proves it's not transmittable.

He has sex with that mage girl, and nowhere and in no way was he chastised for potentially "spreading the taint" (pun not intended). If it was a danger or risk at all Genevieve would have said something along those lines. So, either the Grey Wardens are complete D-bags and don't care about spreading their taint (unlikely since they're, you know, Grey Wardens), or there is no danger and no risk of sexual intercourse spreading it. :wizard:

If you mean that child might be the PC, there is no chance at all of that.

I remember the story that woke people to the power of the taint...

http://social.biowar...ndex.php/Duncan

They had to kill everyone in that village fast...

It brings up the question around what is needed for an infection to occur?

The Mabari warhounds don't get corrupted, the non grey warden party members seem to experience no effect from the spattering blood, sex is apparently not feared as source of infection, however those villagers got infected real quick

Ingestion apparently works quite well, just drinking it makes you a Warden... :/ Maybe there's another element to it..

I think the Grey Wardens are Douche Bags. Ser Jory would agree.

I'm pretty sure the darkspawn taint isn't like AIDS... it's probably more like some types of herpesviridae infections, staying dormant in the wardens till it crops up and drives them mad. genetic decay is probably what makes the virus switch out from its lysogenic cycle and become active (lythic). I got this all from wikipedia...



although there are also mother f***ing dragons so that kinda defenestrates any scientific arguments. Maybe its just because the gods are really fricken pissed at humans; but they like to hate them so they let them breed with no problems (you know kinda like the twilight novels)?

I really doubt that, unless two humans can give birth to a dwarf or a elf
