In Cullen's Da2 codex entry, it says the following:

"After Cullen returned to his duties, it became clear that he would go to any lengths to enforce the Chantry's rule. His zeal troubled Knight-Commander Greagoir, who feared it unwise to let Cullen watch over the men and women he deemed responsible for his torment."

I wonder what extreme lengths he went to? I'd hate to think of him beating innocent Mages and stuff but I guess he must have. I wonder why he calmed down upon arriving at Kirkwall, you'd think he would have gotten worse under Meredith's encouragement.

[LolaLei]

Someone on one of the really old threada said that Cullen mentions during DA2 about doing something bad in the Ferelden Circle after the broken circle event but I don't ever recall hearing him mentioning such a thing. Did anyone else hear him say such a thing?

[MissRedZelda]

Apparently, he got a deep rooted hatred against mages after demons and abominations took over the Circle Tower in Ferelden. And, if you side with the mages during the Broken Circle quest, he snaps some time afterwards and kills a few mages before running away.

Is that what you're talking about?

Hmm, I have no idea. I've listened to about every line of dialogue you can get him to say... but I've also never imported a save game where I annulled the Circle. Do you have a link to the thread? Could context maybe help?

You know, when I hear "zeal"  I don't imagine him harming people. I imagine him being like early Asunder Evangeline and throwing mages in the dungeon for the merest infraction or hint that they're not on the straight and narrow. If they sent him to recooperate and then accepted that he was "healed" following that recooperation, I would assume that he's no longer a danger to anyone. But it would be a huge conflict of interest to having him policing the Ferelden Tower mages after what happened. Talk about a situation ripe for paranoia.

I guess when DA3 takes place would depend on whether or not they want us to prevent the Mage/Templar war getting seriously out of hand (so we'd be thrown in right at the beginning) or if they want us to be right in the middle of it just as sh!ts starting to get real lol.

I've been wondering this, too. I was thinking that if they wanted someone to stop things before they got too far, as per Cassandra's mission in tracking down Varric, then why not just ask Hawke to do it, you know? I can't believe they couldn't actually track her down eventually. But if not, maybe the new PC is her replacement? <ooh, never thought of that before> Anyway, that was part of  why I was imagining they'd set it a bit further into the conflict, to distance it a bit from Hawke and what she could/should have done.

I can only imagine that if they can't track down the Warden or Hawke then something serious must be happening that's being kept hush-hush. I doubt they've been kidnapped, so it's probably something to do with what the Grey Wardens were looking into that's involved Hawke in some way (like the whole ancient Tervinter Magisters/talking Darkspawn popping up or something, since we know Hawke's blood was important.) And as you said, if Hawke and the Warden aren't around to help save Thedas, another hero will have to rise to the occasion.

Actually, that would make a lot of sense. My theory is that the Mage/Templar storyline will serve as a distraction until the real problem comes to light. I mean, with Thedas at war with itself no ones going to be paying any attention to things like the veil thinning or Tervinter magisters rising from their slumber until its too late. I'm pretty sure Corypheus posessed Larius/that Grey Warden lady so it wouldn't surprise me if he's been upto no good and what with all the magic being thrown around in the rebellion, that veils going to break soon.

Ah, I keep forgetting about all that Grey Warden cloak and dagger stuff. I do hope they explain that! It would be cool to loop in the Corpheus stuff. I also like your idea that the mage-templar war would be a backdrop/distraction from another storyline. Honestly, a plain ole war story kinda sounds boring. The Veil ripping sounds increasingly interesting... esp in light of some intriguing comments from the witch in the Silent Grove comics about dragons existing "before the Veil." Of course, I say that like it's never happened before, eventho probably 10% of the quests in each game had such a storyline where the Veil thins/breaks and you have to fix it LOL (e.g. Warden's Keep). But, if it happened on a grand scale, it would be cool.

Naw, his DA:O epilogues were retconned apparently. But if he really does mention about doing something terrible in the Circle tower then perhaps him killing 3 mages wasn't entirely retconned after all. Problem is, I can't find any dialogue in which he mentions it like someone on one of the old threads claims.

Hmm, interesting. Dunno. You know, the thing she says in that post, " He just couldn't look any of those mages in the eye and not remember his friends dying." sounds sorta familiar. Could she be remembering somethng he says when you return to the tower in DA:O, after Broken Circle? In any event, it would be interesting to hear him actually talk about friends, dying or otherwise.

I know DG said at PAX that our Warden 'n' Hawke's disappearance will be explained/resolved in DA3, but that event was all about hypotheticals so we might not find out about it until one of the other future games if they change their minds or decide to make the new protagonist disappear too lol.

I agree that having just a plain old war story would be very anticlimactic. Granted, the Blight was a war but that was different because it wasn't war in a traditional sense and there was plenty going on between the start of our Warden's story and the actual Blight battle itself to keep things interesting. Tbh the idea of DA3's main plot being about having to pick a side and fight with either the Templars or Mages OR perhaps even more boring Ferelden or Orlais sounds really dull and I'd be quite disappointed, especially as they've got some amazing storylines they could run with (like Sandals prophecy, Flemeth and Morrigan, the old god baby if you did the ritual, the black city, the talking darkspawn and old tervinter magisters etc.)

... Of course, if we have to choose to either fight for Ferelden or Orlais, I'll be on Ferelden's side every time! And if we have to pick between the Templars and Mages, normally I'd side with Mages BUT if it could affect the romance with Cullen (if he is in DA3) then I'm gonna have a tough time choosing!

It's possible, though maybe the reason he didn't mention it in DA2 is because it could be used in DA3 as a means to get to know him through conversations etc. Gaider did say that he expects "angst" in Cullen's future which we may see in the series... then again he seemed oblivious to the fact that Cullen was so popular, I'm still not even sure that DG 'n' co are aware of the full extent of it (I'm intent on making them fully aware though!)

Haha, look what I found in the DG interview that was conducted by a fan:

"Apparently if you want the art department to create attractive characters, DO NOT specify that they are love interests and should be attractive. Apparently the first render of Carth Onasi looked like Burt Reynolds. If you don’t specify, the characters will come out attractive (which is how we got Cullen, he said, lol Gaider thinks Cullen is attractive, WE DO TOO). Also apparently telling them you want the character “clean cut” will also make them turn out well. "

Well that explains Alistair's transformation in DA2 LOL! Tbh, I'd still romance Cullen even if they made him look awful, the poor guy needs some love.

I wonder why clean cut would encourage them to make a good looking character? Surely they'd want to do the opposite of what they're being asked?

Oh man, who knows. I know that  when I'm in the character generator I get totally lost in what's "good looking" sometimes until my character looks alien and I have to start over with one of the presets. I can only
wildly speculate that clean cut might translate to some kind of Ken doll-like simplification that results in some standard ideal of beauty. Of course, I also think Cullen's face is much more interesting than that, so... I don't know!

LOL part of what makes Cullen's face interesting is that even in repose, he looks worried. It reminds me of something my 3yr old has been repeating to me that my evil husband said. I've had permanent frown/thoughtful lines across my forehead since I was a kid... dunno why. So, my kid says, "Mommy, you're a frowner. Me and daddy, we're laughers." Guess maybe Cullen's just a frowner, too. LOL

Hahaha aw!

Maybe? I wonder if he has a face model or if they just took the basis of his appearance in DA:O and updated/changed it for DA2? I love his face, he has a haunted expression in when in neutral that the other characters and companions don't seem to have, their neutral expressions all seem blank. In my opinion Cullen is definitely the best looking character in the entire game... though I do worry that what with his fangirl following they'll purposely change his face/hit him with the ugly stick in defiance LOL.

Let's hope not. Although, apparently he has fans amongst the writing staff as well, so here's hoping he has enough champions for that not to happen. And, did they use face models for any of the characters? I realize I have no idea. I'd doubt it for someone as minor as he is, but you never know.

It was fan demand that got Garrus and Tali romancible in ME2. Perhaps the same will go for Cullen in DA3?

Maybe, although Mass Effect and Dragon Age are written by different teams... and David Gaider likes breaking our hearts and doing the opposite of what the fans want LOL.

Knowing our luck, we'll get him as a companion/LI and then they'll have him die, or dump us half way through the game.

Best Served Cold Redux (Cullen as a DA3 Love Interest) - Sneak preview of Script from Hell

The FemaleMagePC speaks with Cullen in the party camp after performing a personal quest for him that involved sneaking into to Kirkwall to steal important documents. 


Cullen: “I thank you for retrieving the late Ser Thrask’s private journal. Despite the flaws in how he implemented his plan, the idea of mage-templar pairs working together in trust and friendship has merit.”
FM!PC: “We could work together to improve it.”  ()
Cullen: “Hm… Perhaps we should. We may learn how to educate others and improve the fate of mages and templars alike.” 
[Cullen approves +10]
[Level up! Mage-Templar Unity skills unlocked]


Cullen sits near the camp fire, paging through Thrask’s journal. FM!PC pokes Cullen.
Cullen: “Do you have time to sit with me? I’ve been reading Thrask’s journal and I’ve found something interesting that you might wish to hear.”
FM!PC: “Certainly.” 
[Cullen motions for FM!PC to sit directly beside to him. Sporting a self-effacing half-smile, he leans his weight toward the FM!PC and slowly flips through the journal’s pages.]
Cullen: “This passage is particularly interesting.”
[Cullen recites a Leliana-quality mini-epic from Thrask’s journal…]
FM!PC: “Interesting. Did Trask write anything else about that?” 
Cullen: “He did.”
[Again, Cullen launches into a Leliana-quality mini-epic from Thrask’s journal, while looking ever more suspiciously comfortable with FM!PC settled closely by his side.]
FM!PC: “There is much for us to think about. Perhaps we can do this again sometime?”  
[Cullen approves +20]


FM!PC pokes Cullen yet again.
Cullen: “Yes? What would you have of me?” [Cullen’s half-smile looks far too intimate to be ever be considered self-effacing.]
FM!PC:  “Let’s continue our mage-templar discussion in my tent.”
Cullen: “Your— Your tent?! Oh, I… I must confess that the idea is very tempting, but…”
FM!PC:  “But what? We live outside of the Chantry’s dictates. The Divine has no power over us. You and I may both do as we wish.”
Cullen: “That is true, for now…” [Takes FM!PC’s hand.] “But the world is being ripped apart by war. I fear what would happen if we— if one of us lost the other after we— ” [Makes pleading puppy dog eyes while holding FM!PC’s hand as if it is something exceeding fragile that might suddenly break into a million tiny pieces.]
FM!PC: “Isn’t it foolish to deny what we already feel?”
Cullen: “It may seem foolish— and, please, you must understand that I— I am tempted— I have thought about— about possibilities of— of us, together, but—“ 
FM!PC: “Then why wait?”
Cullen: “I must confess…  I know what the writers at Bioware have planned for me and— and I cannot let you face the grief you will undoubtedly feel if we become…intimate…together. Not before doing what we must do to end this war.”
FM!PC: “Wait, Biowho? …And what must we do to end this war?”
Cullen: “The blood of a virgin templar must be sacrificed during the penultimate battle. It’s true!”  [grabs both of FM!PC’s hands] “I’ve read the script. You must believe me!”
FM!PC: [Jerks hands out of Cullen’s grip.]  “Sweet nug humping blood of Andrastre, Cullen! Please, please tell me this is not the Maker’s plan.”
Cullen: “I’m afraid it is.”
FM!PC: “Blighted Void!”
Cullen: “I’m— I… to be truthful, I’m not happy about this either.”
FM!PC: “Look, I don’t care. We’re marching into that tent right now. To Void with this blighted war. Clothing off now, Cullen! This is an order!”
Cullen: “Would you instead feel content knowing that I dream of you naked?”
FM!PC: “You what?! Who gave you permission to dream of me naked when you won’t even— Maker’s balls, Cullen!”
Cullen: “Ending this war is what we must do to protect others. Consider what is at stake!”
FM!PC: “Such as our nug humping sanity???”
Cullen: “Yes, there is that… Long ago, in Ferelden, all I could think of was how I wished to—“
FM!PC: “Cullen! Do not start speaking about that tart in blighted Ferelden! 
Cullen: “The Hero of Ferelden was a fine woman.” 
FM!PC: “You were too damn frightened to do anything with her in Ferelden. Admit it. Go ahead, admit it.”
Cullen: “Things were different then. The threat of Aeonar was real.”
FM!PC: “Right now, right where we stand, no one will arrest me for doing this!”
Cullen: “I am only sparing you the pain you will inevitably feel. It’s for the best. For your sake. Please.” 
[Cullen approves +20]


FM!PC pokes Cullen yet again.
Cullen: “My lady, what would you have of me?” 
FM!PC: “You know damn well what I will have of you!”
Cullen: “Could you not be content with the fact that I dream of you?”
FM!PC: “This isn’t fair! How can you admit to having naughty dreams about me yet refuse to do anything about it?” 
Cullen: “The Maker’s plan.”
[Cullen approves +10]


FM!PC pokes Cullen.
Cullen: “Please, my lady, that tickles.” 
FM!PC: “What in the Void is this about? I demand an answer!”
Cullen: “Have patience. Do you wish for us to read together from Thrask’s journal?”
FM!PC: “Only if ‘reading’ is our new code word for ‘you naked and willing in my tent.’”
[Cullen approves +10]


FM!PC walks to other side of camp. Paces. Walks back. 
FM!PC pokes Cullen.
Cullen: “My dearest lady?” 
FM!PC: “I think you should go. Now. Leave.”
Cullen: “I do not wish to displease you. Please, let’s make amends. We have a war to end. We must work together as one. Promise me this.”
FM!PC: “If our relationship continues any further down this blighted path I will be required to slay you.”
Cullen: “As the Maker wills.”
[Cullen approves +10]


FM!PC pokes Cullen.
Cullen: “My love?”  
FM!PC: “I hate you.”

Cullen the tease. He's already been a tease for two games. It only makes sense that the writers would make it official.

Seriously, at first I thought maybe there had been some sort of script leak like with ME3, it was that convincing! I bet they do something like that though, having him let your PC flirt/cute little exchanges and then *BAM* he hits you with the "sorry I can't, it would be inappropriate" speech just when you think you've finally cracked him! Evil DG 'n' co LOL.

If Cullen *is* in DA3 and if he *is* a romanceable companion (or flirtatiously acts like one), I will scream if something like that happens. 


Given how DG wrote the Rhys/Evangeline romance in Asunder, I suspect (hope, pray) that the writers merely give Cullen lots and lots of angst about how he fits into the world around him while allowing him to explore the possibility of a healthy, supportive relationship. So, something closer to Alistair. 

[vieralynn]

Whoops. Internet hiccupped and posted my comment above twice. Replacing with some Cullen.

Here's what my mage!Hawke did when Varric wasn't around to write about it:
