Just as a question, let's say you romanced Morrigan and you *did* chase after her once the story is over. What would you expect to happen if you found her?

I find it hard to believe that you would honestly expect a reunion where you run towards each other across a field of grass, arms open to sweep each other up? Morrigan says, "you found me, you big silly! I know I told you to never come after me, but I was totally wrong!" And then you go off to raise your demon baby in a nice cottage with a white picket fence?

Or you think that, having found her, she will answer questions for you then? Do you intend to offer child support, what? I know that you were hoping for something *more* -- but that's part of the point. I obviously have my own ideas on where the story will go, but now I'm just really curious as to what sort of romantic reunion is being pictured here.

Finally A bioware response. Okay, now if there is a DLC content. I don't imagine running toward her in slow motion with both of my arms open wide and hugging her. That wouldn't be Morrgian. However there are several options.

For one, there was little spoken about Morrgian's actual past growing up with Morrgian's mother expect that she smashed a mirror. Perhaps In the DLC. You enter the fade or enter a place like the warrdens keep and it trigger's memory's with Morrgian's.

You can see like you saw in Warden's keep exactly how Morrgian's mother got her. Perhaps she captured her, or perhaps Morrgian did something to her family. This can happen before or after the final battle.

Let's say the DLC connect take's place after the final battle. Morrgian tells you about why she did it, and maybe details what the ritual is. Perhaps if you are a mage she shows you some secert's and asks you to help her do some sort of magic.

Perhaps you two bicker on about each other. However there are so many thing's that could happen. No one can tell me that a Morrgian only DLC content would not be worth it. We happily shell out 5 bucks for Warrden's keep.

Now we are shelling out five bucks for returning to a point where the darkspawn had invaded. I would be much more interested in a plot DLC that deepsn about Morrgian, manly how she grew up, perhaps her future. What kind of Magic she uses, who her family was. What she intends to do, if you help her or out.

The fans simply love Morrgian. I recall seeing a poll on Dragon Age about Morrgian and she easy topped the favored companion's above all else. If nothing else make a small DLC content and see how many fans will jump through hopes for more Morrgian DLC

I'd personally pay up to 49 dollers for a Morrgian quality DLC

oh yea by the way SIGNED!! D:!!

[fantasypisces]

ahhh David, you said it was a Demon baby... booooooooo

You are either just being silly, or revealed something too early, booooooooo

I was thinking for along the lines of you search for Morrigan, and you follow her trail, if you do meet her it is more of the "I told you not to follow me" (after she beats you in combat) "do so again and I will not be so lenient". Then she walks away again. But it could be a fun little DLC trying to follow the path she took. But I agree, she should NOT be happy to see the PC.

I completely agree with you in everything and also to be honest i prefer post archdemon slain content than pre, iwant to see what happened with everyone especially morrigan.And btw we didnt shelve out 5 bucks for wardens keep we shelved out 7!!Also if i paid 60 bucks for Halo 3 Odst expansion i would pay 60 too for Dragon Age:Morrigans quest expansion 

[Spectre 117]

Dragon Age:Morrigan's quest anyone?It comes with all the multiplayer map packs....oh wait there is no multiplayer.....never mind people XD

[CREinstein]

I would have the Warden seek out the baby, as this is a threat to the people of Ferelden that must be watched... who best but the Warden who served with her?



The Witch will have other thoughts of course "This is MY CHILD AND YOU WILL NOT COME NEAR IT", aka the typical messy divorce and custody story, writ with a arch-demon baby and Witch gone Wild...



I think it could work... divorces are rarely pretty, and it fits the Witch just right

SIGNED !

[Sir Ulrich Von Lichenstien]

Morrigan DLC? Nope, wouldn't work, not with the current system they have setup for DLCs ie. taking place BEFORE the final battle

Morrigan expansion? What just for IF you take the ritual? Nope, doubt they would do that unless they confirmed that it is the canon ending... which may happen, but still, can't really see it happening not yet or in the near future anyway and centering it just on going after Morrigan is a bit poor.

Morrigan in a future sequel? Yes, could happen, though I imagine if she is, it'll be set 30 years+ in the future of thedas timeline and thus no recurring Warden chasing after her.

Didn't think I'd agree on a Morrigan topic with Lotion, but hey ho, wonders never cease.

Yeah... Morrigan comes back and demands alimony...

I think Morrigan's reaction to the Grey Warden finding her is kind of secondary to the responsibility that the Grey Warden has in a couple of separate endings:
1) allowing a maleficar to control an Old God
2) allowing Morrigan to run off with their child
Not going after her is an abdication of responsibility.

Yes but he is no templar(unless you have the specialization) so he doesnt have to go witch hunting her.Still could be great for a personal quest

You'd have to be completely retarded to expect that after all of the dialogue with her. Thats a complete change of character, and i don't think people are expecting something like that. You don't have to be a dick and a screw around with the fans in that manner. Its completely uncalled for. First time i've seen a Bioware employee act in such a way. Almost starting to remind me of Bungie.....

Your the writer for Dragon Age, correct? So obviously you can choose whatever conclusion you want for her story, but to insult the fans and make it seem like the want a "happily ever after" won't get you any support. You created a character that so many people are interested in. We barely touched on the depth of her background in the first game, since she didn't exactly reveal a lot of information about her past, or her intentions with the demon child. 

I understand DLC probably isn't an option for you guys, although i may be wrong, but don't just cast the character aside after all that we went through in Origins. I expected to probably find her in the sequel, and probably in Orlais from seeing various endings, and at least get a chance to talk to her. Not saying that you can't have her join your party again or something, although its very unlikely. I wouldn't be disappointed at this seeing how Bioware did a similar thing with Mass Effect, where your romance interest plays a limited role in the second game and is non recruitable. But don't make it where people who romanced her 100% did it for nothing, because not only would that be a great disappointment to the fans, but it wouldn't have any meaning to the ending in the first place.

This is actually how I played through the game.  Romanced, did the ritual, and chose to follow her.  Why?  Not because of the prospective big romantic grassy fields, but the amount of unanswered questions that came along with it.  She has certain plans, and it's in the main character's best interest (if only for peace of mind) to know whether or not his actions in accepting the dark ritual will ultimately lead to a greater problems down the road.  The whole thing seems fishy because she wouldn't tell us anything.  If she simply wants to raise the kid and not harm anyone: great, then my character and her can have all the wild, baby making witchy sex they want.  If this will lead to a major threat, that's not so great.  

I'd imagine if you were in a scenerio where you engaged in an act to save your own ass not truly knowing what consequences this may bring, if it's in your power to do so, you'd probably be interested in finding out what those consequences actually are.

[Wesley Wyndam Price]

Pfft...I saw a petition post requesting that Alistair and Morrigan be romanced by both sexes and it was quickly closed by a mod that stated that Bioware doesn't answer to petitions. Why should this one be any different?

[RyanTUK]

I'd rather a sequel finished the morrigan journey rather than a poxy DLC... it just wouldnt do justice to the PC - Morrigan relationship to finish it off in a DLC there are far too many opportunities to make her and the child a major part in the sequel imo

Did everyone choose the ritual? No

Judging from the way some people have posted it would seem they are wanting some sort of stupid 'happily ever after' ending with Morrigan and it just shows what a clueless bunch they are.

You are also making silly assumptions that the story will follow the Warden's story.

The games aren't just going to be about 'The Grey Warden', there is more to Thedas than the Wardens and I really hope that the next game has nothing to do with Wardens simply because for the most part all they seem to fight is darkspawn, there is other enemies we can face besides those and to be frank it would get old very quick if all we ever do is play the warden fighting darkspawn. The main difference between this and Mass Effect is, we are not playing a 'single' origin, thus there is no 'Shepherd' and there is no real point for it to be really, unless they decide the sad sop wants to go chasing Morrigan, as said before not everyone chose that. In fact there is probably just as many if not more people that DIDN'T choose the ritual (just to clarify am not against the ritual, I have some that did and some that didn't).

To clarify a point you go on about how those that romanced her for 100% getting nothing if she is left out or given a minor role, what about all those that romanced other characters? Again, this is NOT Mass Effect. One thing to remember in Mass Effect there was only 1 ending as far as Shepherd is concerned, in Dragon Age Origins, for the Warden there is lots if you consider the sacrifice and all the post-coronation options. My opinion is that the Warden if mentioned at all will be a light mention in a sequel.

David in another post already stated that there would be a canon ending if they do another game, that means some people ARE going to get pissed off, he even admits that they know this. I personally don't think it is the last we've seen of Morrigan but I think it is the last the Warden has no matter what option they chose. I would also imagine she will have a minor role if anything in the next game.

i'm pretty sure Bioware already have plans for Dragon Age 2 and from the looks of it it will most likely be a direct sequel which will let you continue the story in Origins. if you read through the whole thread it should be pretty obvious, the end game credits tell you that you will see more of Morrigan and the Grey Warden, also David Gaider's post about what people wanna see the Warden do when he finds Morrigan.
i actually believe that they did the dark ritual thing specifically for Dragon Age 2, which means that the demon kid will be canon. if you think about it, it's pretty obvious that Bioware WANT you to romance Morrigan.
1. She's first introduced, and mandatory. While Leliana is entirely optional, or at least i think so, as long as you don't go into that tavern, and after a certain point Lothering is destroyed. i'm not sure she ever catches up with you later though.
2. Bioware put way more time in designing her appearances compare to Leliana, you know the unique robe and the obvious sex appeal.
3. Her romance option is activated by default when you reach certain approval rating, while you have to choose a certain line at a certain point to begin a relationship with Leliana.
4. There is no female elves in the party, only 2 humans. and of course i'm not counting Zevran, or should i? no i don't think so.
so if that's true then Bioware will very likely take the dark ritual as the canon ending and build the sequel around that and assume most people would find that ending most appealing.
but they can always do it like ME2 and make the story a little bit different for all the outcomes, or make it 400 years later and make it entirely irrelevant, but that's not very likely, the first one is too difficult because there are just way too many options and the Q/A process would be like hell. and for the latter one, well if you spent tons of time and money in character design then why abandon them in the sequel especially when most people want/demand to see them return.

oh, btw, Signed

Please no more Morrigan. I loved her character and even tried out the various tragic romance endings. It was sad how she bails and the one part in the epilogue where it states she felt regret and sorrow brought a tear to my eye. But it was meant to end there. To bring her back would ruin the ending.

Idk, I don't think the next game involves your character.

[EJon]

Dragon age 2 was already confirmed months ago. Its probably going to be a direct continuation also, to those of you who think it won't have anything to do with the Wardens or the events that took place in the first game.
