Crisium, this fanfic writer made the suggestion in her story the Greagoir was Cullen's father and Wynne was his mother. From Dragon Age wikia, it says that Wynne's son is Rhys, but I haven't read anything about the father. Any comments?

That was revealed in Asunder. All Wynne would say was that he was a templar. It would be fun if it was Greagoir. I liked him.

Edit: D'oh sorry if that was a spoiler..? Meanie, I didn't thinker they actually named him...?

No, they didn't name him. Just said "a templar". And now you're probably going to hell for spoiling it. LOL

I remember in a banter with Alistair in Origins she hinted at something like "you're lucky you weren't in the Chantry."

I can't think of a title for my second story.  =(  Other wise I'd start posting it.  I'm also stuck on how to make a transition from a sex scene o.O to her Harrowing... x_x

If you want a realistic transition from a sex scene you can always have the guy jump up and say something lame like "I have to work in the morning. I'll call you.". Then the next day act like nothing happened. LOL

I just assumed she wrote the story sometime before Dragon II and before Asunder was released.  

Don't worry.  I'd still enjoy it even if that was a spoiler, since there's no way of really avoiding spoilers when curiosity gets the best of me

Yeah, I believe most of her Cullen stories predated DA2. I think everyone was a little disappointed when the synopsis for Asunder first revealed that Wynne's son wasn't anyone we'd met before. LOL I know I was.

LOL.  Actually, I did have it like that at first, but then they ended up kissing some more and the last sentence is : "Yes, Knight-Captain, Ser."  And then, assuming some time has passed, she's talking to Irving, but what's there to talk about other than her harrowing was that night :|

I really want her to have Cullen's baby.  I mean, assuming that they had lots of sex before she became a Grey Warden, it could be possible--other than the fact the whole thing about pregnant while fighting archdemon unrealistic and him having a child he never knew about. That discussion we've had before, you know?

I don't know why it sounds appealing though.

Unless the reason she was able to defeat the archdemon was because she was preggers. Hmmm?

I'm not going to use the idea though, until we know for sure if the Warden will be Cullen's girl forever, or at least mine .

Yup, I've started another fic. It's not posted yet. But it's going to be a multy origin story. Yayz! And it's going to be WAYYY longer then my current one. I will post here when I got the first chapter up. It's only at 3k words right now...so meh. I'll keep going on it another day, proof read it and the post it. Of course, it's full of Cullen goodness!

[Dunquixote]

Oh. That sounds interesting. How are you making it a multi-origin story?

I've been coming up with some more ideas for my Awakening story, and I'm going to have my favorite dwarf noble be mentioned in there at the very least; maybe have my character write letters to her. My explanation would be that my mage helped clear her name by finding incriminating evidence against Bhelen, which, with Harrowmont as king, restored her title/house and made her his successor--not sure if it would make sense to make her a Paragon since it was my mage in this story and not her that defeated the Archdemon.

[VampOrchid]

Well the story is going to start in the tower. There a 'few' people are going to be recruited, then to Highever and then of to Denerim to pick up an elf, after that we're going to the Dalish and then we head to Ostagar.

This one is going to be a LONG one lol, but it's going to be a bit of a challenge and not to mention fun. I already have the plot in my head and I started writing some of it last night.

[Dunquixote]

Awesome! So, pretty much, it's a recreation of DAO, but more by scratch than on the main structure of the story in the game? Sounds difficult, but fun at the same time. I'm glad you're having fun writing it then

Kind of. I only using the game as a guide line lol but yes it's fun

[Dunquixote]

That's a very creative idea. I think after I do an Awakening story, I'll probably write one (if DA III isn't out yet and specific details haven't been released) on ideas I would like to be looked into in DA III. I keep getting more and more ideas for stories, which makes me so impatient to finish one I haven't gotten even far with. lol

But see, that's why I like fanfic. We can make the story begin and end anyway we want. If it doesn't match the codex or anything like that...it doesn't matter because it's a 'fic'. If you want to write one, go ahead. Wether you get details spot on doesn't really matter. But if does bother you that much, then you still have to option to wait for DA3, that's the beauty of it all

[Dunquixote]

Yup. I just came up with some ideas that's would be cool to implement before DA 3 so I can see how off I was or see if it was something planned to be addressed for later. I am so glad I started writing again. It's all thanks to everyone in this thread as well as the fan group, and Crisium. I never realized how inspiring reading other people's fan fiction or looking at their fan art really was.

Fan fiction is really fun and it seems to help me look at things from the game I had never considered as significant or thought twice of, but then come to realize that it does imply some sort of impact in the plot.

One thing I'm wondering...if we let the talking darkspawn guy at the end of Awakening live, if he could possibly be a companion in DA 3? xD that'd be funny, but 99.9% unlikely.

The talking darkspawn as a companion would be very unlikely, I think. But I wonder if we'll see Loghain again. That is, if canon goes with the option that he lived and became a Grey Warden. We saw two of them in Kirkwall who had some super important mission they were on, so maybe we'll get answers there but Loghain will bring them? I dunno. It was a thought that occurred to me today.

Your praise warms my heart. Fanfic is a lot of fun! I'm glad you're finding it enjoyable too.

[LolaLei]

I dunno if they'd bring Loghain back, not many people let him live lol. I wonder if Finn from Witch Hunt will make an appearance though?

I've been playing The Witcher 2 a lot recently, I wonder if DA3 will take on an art style similar to that environment wise? A lot of the female characters (the mages) are ridiculously hot as well, I wouldn't mind creating a protagonist to look like one of them, especially since some of them have really long hair.

[meanieweenie]

I killed Loghain every.. frickin'... time. lol Plus I found him visually unappealing.

The Witcher 2 is beautiful to look at. The costuming is lovely. It's also very much on the soft core porn line. (Which doesn't necessarily bother me if it's in context - doubly fun if it included Cullen.) LOL

[Dunquixote]

I don't mind him except when I did return to Ostagar and came across Cailan's body. I don't forgive him for selling elves, torturing innocents, and slandering wardens, but I understand why he withdrew (I am not saying I agree or disagree with that). I don't hate him like I did in the first playthrough though.

Anyone know if your noble dwarf remains a princess in spite of her house (if you chose harrowmont) not being the ruling house; she does become his heir from what I recall and a paragon, but I'm not sure if she is to be called Lady Aeducan and/or Princess... My mage is writing a letter to her in my third story I'm working on while I'm stuck on my transition scene to the Harrowing in my second story.

[LolaLei]

Lol the language they use in that game is filthy, I've been laughing my head off at the stuff they come out with. The characters aren't as likeable or in depth as Bioware's though. I think DA3 would do well to take visual ideas from The Witcher 2, with interactions (like the off duty leave/dates) and sex scenes from ME3, the ability for us to get to know our companions as deeply as we did in DA:O (but more so) and throw in some extra companion/LI quests and it'll be a good game.

... Add Cullen as a companion/LI to that mix and it'll be an amazing game!

[SamaraDraven]

I have killed Loghain/spared him/had him make the ultimate sacrifice/leave him as a warden and my warden sacrifices herself. I've tried it all. I think... I understand his reasoning more than I want to. If I'd been so sure an old enemy I hated was trying retake my country, I'd do some shady **** too. That said, I don't agree with selling the elves, and I had wanted to think he didn't know about it because Howe was a sneaky devious rodent who lied and implied to get Loghain's approval for certain acts. I'm still not sure the tortures were something he was complicit with. I don't recall if they made that clear. They did make it clear he knew about the elves, though and for that and his betrayal of Cailan and the Wardens, I thought making him one was an ironic punishment. So I wonder how he's fared as a warden and since the Wardens seem to have some big, important business going on, it makes me think it might be possible to see him again. Unless the Devs' canon for him is that he died.

@LolaLei
I agree. Add all that stuff and throw Cullen into the mix and DA3 will be the hottest game of the franchise! Just imagine ME's knack for inter-character relationship development and the Witcher's sex scene with Cullen!!! *dies*

[LolaLei]

Omg a scene like that with Cullen would be absolutely amazing! I doubt we'd ever get something like that though, David Gaider said himself that he's ditch the sex scenes in a heart beat if he had his way.

Y'know, I find it weird that the DA team (or Bioware in general) find it creepy that people develop crushes on their characters, I mean, not only do they use real life models for some of their characters (like Morrigan) but they also use well known actors that people usual have an affinity too anyway, they include sexual and loving relationships that tick all the right boxes on the romance/tragedy scale and develop all their characters personalities in a deeply realistic way... Not to mention all the characters have traditionally "perfect" bodies, even the Dwarfs!

If anything you'd think Bioware actually set out with the intention of making gamers grow so attached to their characters, the fact that an NPC such as Cullen gets so much love despite the fact he gets very little air time in both games really says something, he'll he wasn't even that attractive in the DA:O yet we instantly grew attached to him!

[Dunquixote]

That shows also how awesome Greg Ellis is as a voice actor . The amount of passion his character puts into his words... makes me want to hug Cullen -squeals happily-

Sorry for my squeeness. lol

Strangely though, I don't get that way with any of Steve Blum's characters, and his characters all differ in personality and attitude. I mean I love Oghren, but not love like "Aw he's so cute or handsome."

[LolaLei]

Lol Oghren is loveable in a drunken uncle sort of way, I love him but in a purely platonic way, now Varric on the other hand... He would have been my Hawke's canon LI if he'd been romanceable!

I've noticed Greg Ellis does a lot of VA work for games, I've never seen him as a main character though. It's actually occurred to me that Cullen is the only NPC in both Dragon Age games to have a constant and strong fan base, all the rest of the big official character threads in here are for romanceable companions or companions that people wanted to romance (like Nathaniel and Varric etc) lol. All other NPC fan threads only have a small handful of pages or die out quickly.

[SamaraDraven]

Perhaps Greg is just too busy to sign onto being the lead in a game? I wonder what DG has against the romances in the game. To be honest, I could deal without the love sex scenes. I wouldn't like it but I'd deal. I think having a rewarding relationship would make up for not having The Scene. That would mean give us scenes throughout the game of the progression - more of them and more frequently. I always liked getting to the relationship advancing bits but it felt like it took a lot to get there with not much to go on before. There were like 3 big scenes that embody the romance and then nothing after the sex scene. If the romance was killer, the sex scene need not apply. But it's a nice bonus!

I like Ohgren in his own Dwarven Drunkard way. "Fart me a lullaby..." I too would have gone "there" with Varric if I could have. He's just too awesome not to.

I'm so proud of our thread!
