I believe she is exercising her powers as Kirkwall's Champion: loved and feared by everyone.

I've never noticed before but Aveline isn't particularly religious at all, in comparison to Wesley. So I guess Templars can marry people that aren't heavily into religious beliefs... Either that or she faked it in order to marry him.

Either way, that's a good sign.

I've noticed that but never really put much insight like you did, it doesn't seem like she would fake it. maybe being religious isn't a requirement like you suggest, but it's probably encouraged.
So, hopefully our protaganist doesnt have to be so religous around Cullen, assuming he is indeed a LI

I'm guessing the reason Templars need approval to marry is so the Chantry can insure none of their knights take a wife from a suspect or unfavorable background. They don't want any ugliness shed on them by having knights whose wives are from a family of known mage sympathizers or criminals. The faithful part probably matters more in regard to the knight. His - or her - spouse just has to be a good boy or girl.

DG said something about this elsewhere. I have a copy of the quote but I don't have the original link at the moment:

"For templars, the situation is not quite the same. Their duties require them to be dedicated to their duties-- they're going to live in a Circle of Magi (which does not have room for spouses and families) or a chantry, or otherwise be pre-occupied. Marriage is impractical, and the Chantry thus discourages such marriages as having dependents introduces complications that templars can do without (as well as a potential means of leverage).

That said, the Chantry does occasionally give permission for templars to marry, provided the spouse has their own means of support. This is often the case when the spouse owns land or a title. Even so, considering the spouse wouldn't be able to see the templar often, it's not going to happen frequently. Before anyone asks, the Chantry also discourages templars from marrying each other even more so-- that's considered fraternization within the ranks (the templars are run as a military order, remember, and possess the same discipline)."


So, the problem is how the spouse and the templar's family might be able to influence a member of the Chantry's army.

I suspect that Aveline's marriage to Wesley wasn't a problem because she was supporting herself as a soldier in the King's army and the Chantry probably assumed that she was a loyal citizen of Ferelden, thus not a threat to the Chantry.

HAHAHAHA! Cullen does look a little bashful... And he's looking around to make sure no one can see.

In her canon Kirkwall, Cullen doesn't mind, but only in private. Only. In. Private.

Vieralynn: It makes you wonder how we'll be able to romance Cullen if he's still a Templar (especially if we're a Mage.) Perhaps he just won't be romancable and it'll just be another Aveline situation.

It also kinda reiterates the fact that Cullen was talking about a relationship etc whilst stuck in that cage, rather than the sole reason being our Warden.

That's what I was thinking of. The Chantry allows certain marriages and a self-sufficient spouse is a good factor to measure. I guess I should have been more specific. I'd have a hard time believing they didn't check the potential spouse over to make sure they wouldn't cast any kind of bad light on them in regards to mages or criminals. It just seems like something the Chantry would do. Not all Templars have their duties at Circles so it's possible but I can't see a knight stationed at the Circle as being allowed to marry without a darn good reason. But Wesley does give us hope for all Templar kind - and thus Cullen as well.

 I need to run: get brunch, do some shopping and such.

LolaLei: When I get back, I'll start digging through my sound files to find all of the Cullen audio you asked for earlier.
 
Until then, here's something pretty (I don't know if it has been shared over here yet) -- DAIII: Cullenby ~VelvetRue

I can just as easily imagine him being an LI as I can imagine him being another Aveline. 

(now I really need to run... back in a few hours)

I just never saw that scene in that way. It's always struck me that he wanted her not a relationship in general. "The one thing he's always wanted" and "a mage of all things" together tell me that he wanted her. Sure, as a lonely Templar, he's bound to crush on someone and want a relationship and whoever that is could have been the face that the demons tortured him with. But it's established that he has a crush on the female Warden in the beginning and thus hers is the face they use against him. The way I see your point working is if the crush in the beginning was an option the player chooses by way of certain dialogue. Like if you make it clear you like him too, then later his torment is about the Warden. If you don't return the flirtation with him, then that scene should be a little different, perhaps not even having the "mage of all things" line in it. The way it's written, however makes it clear - to me anyway - that he likes the female Warden.



Yay! It worked! I dunno whose pic this is and I'm sorry if I offend. I just wanted to see if I could get an image up!

Oh, I also meant that obviously she's the object of his affections whether she likes it or not lol, but I feel like he was referring to a relationship/love/sex as well. Not that he'd want it with just anyone, obviously at that stage in his life he only had eyes for her.

I just got the impression that he always wanted that loving/sexual intimacy. Because he couldn't have always known her to have always wanted her, if that makes sense. So it's like, he's obsessed with our Warden, but even if he had never met her he still would have always wanted an intimate relationship/love.

LOL that strange old guy in The Hanged Man just said to Isabela that he found a cheese wheel in the Chantry and thinks its "a sign", I wonder if that's a poke at fans dissecting everything and presuming it's some sort of hint/conspiracy?

Ah. I suppose that makes sense too. If he's a lonely Chantry urchin (like most of us surmise he is) who has never known real closeness, it's not a huge leap to think he might dream of finding that someone special one day. The Warden is just the one that grabs his fancy.
 
Of course, never having that close relationship and having regrets like his memories of Broken Circle and undoubtedly the fall of Kirkwall's Circle means he'll ave a lot of self-worth kin of issues to figure out. Maybe even not believing he deserves to have someone because he's made so many mistakes. Just not like Anders! But it'd be nice to see if romancing him can take him away from one path and put him on another. Or ou could just reinforce his belief that he deserves no happiness... and he'll become eternally cold and bitter. Not that I'd ever do that but still...

Are you talking about The Talkative Man? He says the weirdest stuff. Like "Do you ever feel like we're all in a story...?" Talk about a run-in with the 4th Wall! lol!

Edit: Hey Cacey! How goes it?

Ooo the latter would make for an awesome alternative... Not that I'd ever do it, but to have a bunch of different choices for his "fate" would be really interesting!

Really?! LOL! Well, he might be onto something there... His blood is important. That being said, I also heard him say that he's never slept with a woman because they want to steal his life essence LOL!

I'm good. Did housework yesterday and I'm pooped! I plan on getting out the Halloween decorations this weekend.

Edit: I would just like to aplogize now for the increase in errors in my posts. My keyboard is going and it doesn't always do what I tell it to. I try to keep up on the missing letters and spaces but I know I miss some too. So just FYI... :happy:
