It's just occured to me that I've never spoken to Cullen as a male Mage, supposedly it's very different to the female Mage encounter. I've looked it up on YouTube and this is what I found. He sounds much more like his DA2 personality:

(skip to 2:05)

I'm gonna load up DA:O now and have a little experiment, I'll type up what he says in all the convo options.

*Edit* I just checked, he pretty much says the exact same things just in a different order. Here's it transcribed anyway:


Cullen: *Professionally* Greetings. I'm glad your Harrowing went well.

Mage: Who are you?

Cullen: *Sternly* I am Cullen, I was to strike the killing blow if you had... become an abomination. I am glad you didn't.

Mage: But you would have if it was called for.

Cullen: (Letting his guard down and professionalism slip) *Sigh* It is my duty. Some Templars I know discuss it with glee, I don't share their enthusiasm. I try to serve the Maker first and foremost, as long as I am guided by his commandments I cannot go wrong. Honestly, I have never seen an abomination... or been called to slay one.

Mage: So you could have made a mistake?

Cullen: Gregoir would have guided me... something must happen. But, what if it's not obvious? Could abominations be walking among us right now?

Mage: I am sure there are no abominations here.

Cullen: This is still new to me. Maybe one day i'll be as dedicated and driven as Knight Commander Gregoir.

Mage: He is a very dedicated man, yes.

Cullen: You must be busy, perhaps we can talk another time.



So, it appears he's equally as unsure of himself if you play as a male Mage too except he reveals more about his concerns. Poor old thing.

You know, this doesn't make him seem creepy at all. Just... young. And with a bad case of Greagoir hero worship. LOL So cute.

Also, the part: "It is my duty. Some Templars I know discuss it with glee, I don't share
their enthusiasm. I try to serve the Maker first and foremost, as long
as I am guided by his commandments I cannot go wrong. "

He's already acknowledging that he tries to follow what he believes the Maker and Andraste intended, not necessarily what the templars do or expect. I think this part of his character remains into DA2, even if he loses sight of it a bit with his PTSD.


Hello everyone, I've been completely swallowed up by work. :?

Yes, the male vs female mage dialogues in the origin story really do need to be seen to paint the larger picture of Cullen. I find it interesting how even little bits in the beginning change: the male mage has the option to ask "who are you?" (presumably he doesn't know Cullen by name) whereas the female mage has options that make it clear she knows who he is.

As for following what he believes the Maker and Andraste intended vs what the templars do or expect, I'd say he loses sight a good bit during Act 1 of DA2 (and maybe part of Act 2). I don't have the lines handy ATM but Cullen does say (paraphrased) that he has decided not to question the Templar Order.

All in all, I think Cullen's interest in following the will/word of Andraste and the Maker positions him to play an interesting role in DA3 as a reformer (assuming he's included).

Hmm, I wonder, when do you think he said this?  In Act 1, I'd also been thinking that he loses sight of his own belief in the Maker/Andraste, but interestingly, in reviewing what he actually says, for example, after the Keran quest, he actually seems to be following his own (PTSD-induced) beliefs... which are still shaped at the time by his experiences with Uldred. He doesn't so much quote what the Order says but talks about "the world that Andraste recognized."  In contrast, there are a number of lines in Act 3 where he says that he won't question the purpose of the Order again but wonders if following Meredith and the Order are the same thing anymore. And, during the Last Straw, also says that he'll do as he's commanded, but is increasingly unclear who's in right, etc.

Anyway, I hadn't really thought about it before, but I wonder if he's less of a mindless follower throughout. Yet again, making him the perfect character for inclusion in DA3!

Although, interestingly, just saw a clip from Act 3 when he arrests Alain and if you say he's a blood mage, Cullen chimes in (again!) that mages can't be trusted. D'oh. That's pesky roleplaying. You can still make Cullen a bigot that late in the game. Jeesh.

Those are awesome Vamp! :D My mages have never worn a single hat until DA2 gave you the option to make them invisible. So the only times I had to see them on my Hawkes heads were when I was in the menu. My husband was like, "Why aren't wearing a cowl? They give you points toward defense and abilities." and I just looked at him like he'd grown another head. Finally he walked away mumbling about he just doesn't get me sometimes. :D

I think, if it's done right, it could work. Really Cullen probably wouldn't let his hair grow long without a reason. As long as he has access to a barber, it's going to remain short. But if he were on the run, let's say.; he might not have the luxury of keeping it cut. Or maybe he grows it out to look less like his known self? It'd be OOC for him to do something so impractical until it was actually more practical but as long as his curls don't wind up looking like Justin Timberlake's, I think long ringlets would look good on him. But then I like scruffy looking guys like Aragorn and Faramir so... *shrug* To each their own.

And welcome to the party! Late or not, at least you're here!:wizard::D

LOL those hats are ridiculous aren't they! The only time I ever let my mages wear them is if I've purposely made a really weird looking character for a laugh lol.

Oh I dunno, I think he rocks the 80's hair!

But yeah, maybe if he had been imprisoned for a while then his hair would be kept long.

Mullet ftw! :D I thought the 80's hair was good for a laugh but, to be honest, I don't think I actually want to see Cullen in that. Something about shoulder length - maybe just past his shoulder blades (my husband once had hair that long and I thought it was awesome) - and a bit messy looking would be my cup o' tea. :wub:

And angry!imprisoned!scruffy-dirty-Cullen! Mmmm! Just waiting for the chance to strike... ^_^

Oh Maker! Nic's hair in that film was so very vomit-inducing. I'll stick with my Aragorn comparison. Shaggy mop is like Paul Walker in Timeline. That could work too. :happy: But I'd like it longer so the weight pulls the curls out a bit.

Omg if Cullen had scruffy wavy long hair like Aragorn, but blonde! I can just imagine him escaping from being imprisoned, looking all rugged and manly... Kinda like his retconned epilogue in DA:O but without all the Mage killing.

Indeed. :D In Medieval times it was more common for men to have longer hair. I wonder why DA doesn't reflect this. :blink:
