A few weeks ago, I just created my first Amell Warden.
Random question:
Does anyone know where I can get a different Cullen banner signature? I want to change mine, but I don't know where everyone is getting them from.
Well, I'll admit I wasn't sure he wasn't still insane until after Wilmod was dead and we conversed. But making the initial connection that it was actually the same Cullen made my heart skip a beat.LolaLei wrote...

I adored Cullen in Origins. I was heartbroken with his ending. You know the 'he runs off like a crazy, murdering mad man' one? Anyway, in DA2 when you first hear about Knight-Captain Cullen, I didn't put two and two together. I actually thought it was weird that they named another character Cullen and thought it was very unoriginal on the writer's parts. Then I met him at Wilmod's camp, heard the voice and shrieked outloud in joy that it was my Cullen from Origins and he wasn't actually insane.LolaLei wrote...
I'd heard people going on about this Cullen character after playing DA:O, but I didn't play the mage origins immediately so I had no idea who he was at first, and since I went straight on to DA2 it was a good few months until I rolled my canon Amell Warden and discovered that Cullen in DA2 was the guy with the crush in DA:O lol.
Anyway, after the whole ME3 endings I was looking for something to take my mind off of it, which is when I started replaying DA2 again and this time around I REALLY paid attention to what was going on in the game, which was when I began to appreciate his character for more than just being a pretty templar. I found him interesting and kinda sweet so I started to look around to see if anyone else thought the same, which was when I remembered seeing people talking about Cullen months before so I done a bit of research and then found this thread on page 35... the rest, as they say, is history LOL!
Gosh, that first line he says to Hawke "this is templar business stranger", I totally thought he was gonna be a bad guy!
I wish I had already played and imported an Amell Warden over for my first ever play-through of DA2. That very first encounter with Cullen would have totally made me think that he still bat sh!t crazy like his DA:O epilogues, it would've been a nice surprise to discover that he was a good guy whilst knowing his full DA:O backstory.

Good thing we didn't have to! When he said: "You'll have to go through me!" for my mage, I swear I melted. XD

They really did make him quite stunning for the second game. It always makes me laugh when people use the 'What did you expect them to look like? A large sum of time has passed and people age' excuse for why Alistair and Nathaniel look so...well, not so pretty because Cullen looks GREAT, as does Isabela. It's almost like people forget that they were in the first game too. I guess time was kinder to their physical appearance.LolaLei wrote...
My very first reaction was: "Oooo angry pretty man" followed by "how bloody rude!" When he said the templar buisness thing. Then I was like "Oh sh!t" when Wilmod turned into a demon, and then I went all "oh, he's not such a bad guy after all... awww, he stuttered!"
After that I mainly just commented on how pretty he was everytime I saw him and then got worried that I'd have to kill him in the final battle.
Possibly my most favourite moment in the game. Admittedly, I will never let Carver be a templar after he stole the thunder of that line from me. I seriously wanted to shove him out fo the way and be like, "I don't care, Carver! Let me swoon over Cullen!"PhantomGinger wrote...

Uh...no. Going to check right now. You'll have to forgive me, I'm really quite a computer dunce and don't really know how the whole site works yet.LolaLei wrote...

That's reminds me. I wonder what Cullen's reaction to Anders would be in DA3 if we were to encounter him? I mean, obviously he's not going to be happy to see his face again, but in a lot of peoples games Anders was still in Hawke's party and Cullen allowed him to either escape with the rest of Hawke's party or allowed him to continue to remain free in Kirkwall with Hawke until they all left for whatever reason.
Presumably the writers will give him some sort of reaction/reasoning as to why Cullen let him walk free too. There wasn't any dialogue at the end of the game in which Cullen demands Hawke leave Anders behind and he certainly didn't even attempt to stop him, even if Hawke hated Anders lol.
I just spit out my drink reading "Anora must be feeding him cheese". Too funny!Dunquixote wrote...

Nathaniel looked...decent, ignoring the fact his eyes were brown and not grey like in Origins [I didn't notice it until I tried making my Hawke look like Nathaniel, a few weeks agp). I like the stubble on his face better in DA II than in DAO: Awakening.
Check out these comments in the original Cullen discussion thread. Man, I wish I was present for that conversation. I laugh so hard every time I go back and read this page. http://social.biowar...ndex/6669348/18. I think Selenora had the best reaction xD.
I thought Alistair, Zevran, and Teagan were horrendous.

He never floated my boat to begin with, but he did look better than Alistair and Zevran. I certainly liked his character better in 2, and was it just me or did he sound different? I liked his voice acting better in 2 too.motomotogirl wrote...
o.o Honestly, I thought DA2 Nathaniel was a babe. Shocked you guys didn't like him!

I...actually didn't really like Cullen at first. I think it's because I was playing a Cousland at the time and didn't realize just what he had been through until I finally went and rolled out a Surana. Then it went from "I really don't like this guy" to "Meh, he's alright I suppose." Then DA2 came out and I was just so impressed with the amount of character growth that the more I thought about it the more and more I ended up liking him.Dunquixote wrote...

I thought he was hot to be honest. But if you play on PC then there is a mod that fixes the eye thing.![]()

I'll never know, since I'm the 0.01% that has Anders die in my canon playthrough. *cough* Everyone will just have to tell me what happens if this situation arises in DA:I .

Knowing Cullen and Anders they will probably just throw insults at each other or getting into a heated debate about the circle until our protagonist drags him away.
Wouldn't it be funny to find them working together. It would never happen but it would certainly be a surprise!
