I've played Human noble and Human mage before but the City elf origin is by far my favorite so far. Nothing more satisfying than slaughtering those nobles. You can definitely see why the elves dislike humans.

Yes... I killed the dogs ... all of them... even the ones in the cages.

That, and it had what I thought was probably the biggest bastard choice in the game (not the most evil, but the most bastard-y). Leaving your bride, friend's bride, cousin, and some other women to be raped and beaten for some cash...

I played it as a female just yesterday. I was surprised that I got to kill a character who showed up later on for other origins. I really really thought they'd deny me that. It felt like killing Howe in the first act.

Eh, it's not that bad. Vaughn's entire role is sitting in a dungeon 40 hours later. Not exactly a major role.

Now that I think of it, situations like that are probably part of the reason for the Copper-Silver-Gold system... offer 400,000 coins to a player in the first ****ing hour of playing and they won't be thinking "But my cousin is there!" , they'll be thinking "HOLY **** 400,000 COINS GIMME GIMME GIMME"

400,000? He offered me 40 sovereigns! I thought "that is such bull****, he won't give me that... wait, will he? No, I must murder him dangit, I'm roleplaying the female Punisher for gods sake! But 40 gold! NO MUST KILL!"

Well, 40 sovereigns is 400,000 copper coins, which is the point of my post. I was saying that situations like that are probably part of the reasoning for the Copper-Silver-Gold system. If it was just copper, stuff like that would happen. Huge numbers tend to override moral fiber.

I'm a good source of moral fiber. Not only was I not tempted by the money, I was trying very hard to be a good person and not murder him outright. Luckily, I still got to kill him ^_^

Oh, I thought one of you said it was 400,000 silver. Which, for some reason I quickly calculated to only being .4 gold.



But, no, it's not. It's base 100, not base 1,000,000. Now idea how I made that mistake. 400,000 copper is 40 gold.



Did anyone take that? Does he seriously give that to you?

He does give it to you, but unless you stash it, it just gets taken away. If you DO stash it, you can get it back once you go back to the Arl of Denerim's estate during the Landsmeet.

The gold was tempting...



But, he payed in blood instead!



How dare he kill my good-looking future husband? He could have killed my cousins mousy bride, but noooo.

My city elf was glad her betrothed was killed. Well.... she wasn't glad for all the raping and killing of her people, but the silver lining of his death was at least she didn't have to get married anymore. He was cute, but not worth her freedom cute. Plus I rather enjoyed pissing him off when we first met, secretly my character was just trying to sabotage the wedding of course.



You can tell that her and Morrigan got along famously.



Ironically playing a male city elf when you see your bride to be, it's quite the jaw dropping moment. She is totally worth the ball and chain. I'm still trying to figure out how they got such a drop dead beautiful face out of the character creator.

I know how! They didn't use the CC, they used the toolset!

The toolset is vastly superior. I mean, look at my elf's ears. You can't get those with the CC.

Though I'm going to have to make a male City Elf and see this beauty for myself.

The Arl's family just got a little bit shorter . . . I mean, smaller.

Ah, I love managing to get a finisher on enemies like him... my elf I'm playing now got the "stab with the off hand then decapitate with the main hand" one on Vaughn.

Mine got a good one on Vaughn, too. He's probably one of the 100% finisher chance enemies.

I'd like to reiterate my desire for a mod that adds a murderin' axe to the Arl's estate. Crazy, blood-splattered woman in a wedding dress axe murdering every human she sees for the win.



Bonus points if you call it "The Murderin' Axe."

Did anyone else think your betrothed looked alot like the elven hand maiden you bedded in the human noble origin?



In the end of my first playthrough (human noble) I killed Vaughn in the dungeon as well. Just didn't like the cut of the guy, even before I knew what a jerk he was. :)

My favorite origin, so much that it makes the rest of the game tastes a little bitter.

That's not a way to get ahead in life.
That's using your head.
Heads-up!
Pity you won't be getting more facetime
Oooo, he ain't gonna' be in Dragon Age 2!

Ok I'm done. Image IPB

Well, at least I managed to head off any other crimes he might have committed.  Man, what a headcase.
