Simpler than that.
You have Merrill and Anders (and your sister if you werent a mage) as mages as well.
If your a mage - plot happens to you were templars come calling, you have to figure out plot, hide your status, etc... Until you become champion and then your too important to hide.

If you are not a mage, you have a sister who is. The plot comes calling for your sister, same plot, except now you have to hide her identity not your own.

Jobs a good un.

I've come to conclusion that whatever type of Lyrium the Templars in Kirkwall are snorting, it must be good.


lol That pretty much sums it up.

That comic posted earlier is so true. What do templars think the staves are for? Leaning on? Oh, right they're to high on lyrium to notice.

I would have been happy if when Merril revealed she was a blood mage, I could have said something akin to "hey, me too!" instead of only saying how blood magic was evil.

But it was the same issue in Origins as well - no one cared if you used blood magic. As much as I love taking blood magic as a specialization, I'm kind of under the opinion that it they should stop offering it for the player to use if they don't make other characters notice you're a blood mage. It just breaks the immersion a bit.



The thing was that in Origins you were a Grey Warden and outside all the restrictions posed to mages. Grey Wardens use every means available, no matter how morally questionable they are, for if the Archdemon is not stopped, then morals don't matter anyway, anymore.

In that context Blood Magic is necessary evil, and outsiders either turn a blind eye, or are unwilling to use any hostility towards the Wardens. As long as they don't mesh in the political affairs of the realm, Vigil's Keep an example.

In Kirkwall, you're just another person, nothing special or fancy. Once you become the Champion, it may be plausible that templars or any other will take caution before doing anything to imprison or kill you. Before that, even the nobility has to give away sons and daughters to the Circles, any active blood mage or apostate risks execution on sight and so on. 

Not to mention as the above have said, your companions not giving two coppers over what you do, as an apostate or blood mage.


Never makes much sense.
