Considering Varric and Alistair are my favorite DA characters I’ll buy it. My canon has a female warden married to Alistair. I really don’t care if they write off the Warden or Hawk. Let both characters disappear. I’m not much on comics and prefer books but I’ll make an exception for this. I already ordered the book “Asunder” by David Gaider.

While I'd love to do a DLC like Leliana's Song based around Alistair (..)

Out of interest, is something like that considered even a vague possibility by you guys? Because yeah, it'd be lovely.


I would buy it. Another favorite character. Sadly I like these two more than Hawke.Posted Image

I have one complaint: Alistair still rocking the same hairstyle and facial hair after all this time. Seriously, he needs to mix it up a bit.

That aside, looking forward to this. Gaider's great and Freed's proven himself with the TOR-era comics.

Since you cannot import your personal save into a comic book or a novel


Digital comic, where choices made will determine which pages are shown =D

This sounds very cool. I don't mind that it might mess with some of my game choices, because c'mon... otherwise they can't even touch the characters anymore. They aren't just MY characters anyway. ;)

Sounds interesting.

Might as well get over the whole establishing canon thing. BW did not promise us the level of freedom in DA that they did in ME. Some canon gets established so they can tell the story they're trying to tell.

Isabela is sex concerned and devs crete about her the comics! Shameless Fanservice. WHY ISABELA BUT NOT FENRIS?!:crying:
I am so tired of her in game and gave her Arishok.
Really, I will read only because of Varric and Alistair, I can't see this wh*re again. may be mr Gaider's talent create her more intesting than "SEXSEXSEX".
I love how Varric looks- little lion. And Alistair too. He looks like king.

Gah I wish we knew if Alistair was a King or Warden in the comic, that would ease my worry. If he's a GW with the DR as canon then that's fine, I have a playthrough to match that. But if he's a king and the DR is canon in the comic then I don't have a playthrough to match it D: I wish I finished more complete playthroughs of DAO and DA2. I think I'll work on it so I can have multiple stories with one of them matching up with Biowares universe. 


It would make more sense if Alistair was a Grey Warden, since he should be governing Ferelden as a King otherwise.

I agree with your comment regarding Isabela. They went over the top with Isabela. She catch  
VD in my play through and all she does is talk about sex. She’s not that funny. I guess she is in the comic for an easy lay and she has a boat.Posted Image

I think people are simply wary. I think it has more to do with people being concerned their choices are going to be being disregarded, after what happened with the rectons/handwaving in Awakening and Dragon Age 2.

But still that does not detract from the abo****e immaturity that is shown by some fans. There are choices in an RPG, and DA:O gives us many. How on Earth is David Gaider going to write something that involves important characters without colliding with other Origin stories. Or do people have some fixed obsession about their playthrough being the absolute perfect one, and will not accept that Bioware expand their universe via novels because their Alistair is dead and has his head stuck on a pike.

This is called 'canon' by David Gaider. But to me, it's just an oppurtunity to explore Antiva and learn some more about Thedas. As far as I'm concerned... this didn't happen. Is it that hard to be open minded about it?

We actually do know. The question was answered on twitter. From what I've been told, Alistair is the king.

I'm absolutely baffled by the kerfuffle about this. I'm just happy to have more story, and this is a group that would be very interesting together. Of course the writers have a version that they consider 'canon.' How else would they write the story? By stoping the flow at every juncture to consider all the alternate possibilities and writing those down, too? They'd never get past the third event before drowning in a quicksand of exponential possibilities. It's a lot more likely that they come up with one version and then look for places that alternate choices would divide it. It doesn't matter in the least if that version is the one I went with.

Hmm...Now that I think on it, it would actually be a good thing if my female Cousland wasn't canon and the Warden was a guy. It might mean that another character could romance Alistair all over again. I wouldn't mind that one bit.;)

Kings don't rule! In Ferelden they go out in adevntures and have tea parties with the Darkspawn! :o Leave the ruling to Loghain ;)

Shades of necromancy there...creepy ;) But then, we all have our personal games, as has been discussed at length. :) In any case, we only know of Alistair leaving the kingdom twice in tenish years--to go to Kirkwall as part of whatever tour he was doing, and to go to Antiva for what is no doubt something of importance. He could leave a lot more than that without any dereliction.

Sadly, it'd probably be Eamon holding the reins.

Shades of Awakening... Alistair secretly wears a WWED bracelet, I know it.

I would imagine that would be true if Alistair's personality isn't hardened, and he isn't married to Queen Anora. If Alistair's personality is hardened and he is wed to Queen Anora (with Loghain being spared), then Arl Eamon returns to Redcliffe. My Surana Warden spared Loghain, and this is what happened. It makes sense, since it's mentioned that there's little need of The Warden as Chancellor if King Alistair is married to Queen Anora with a hardened personality because the two rulers are effectively governing the nation.

I think with a little coaching Alistair would be just fine on his own, but I think Alistair is the greatest thing since sliced bread so, I'm biased.
