Ok forgive me if I'm wrong but yeah you get to marry Anora/Alistair but think in like 20-30 years you'll be dead cause of taint also it's hard to conceive a child with the taint and if you marry Alistair hell have to die before you become next in line which would mean anyway you be dying soon after so you wouldn't  ever get a chance to rule and carry on the family for future kings/queens unless you was somehow lucky to get a heir.

So in reality Anora should be the one marrying Alistair or male PC as this would mean he have a better chance to carry on the family.

20-30 years is such a short time.  They might as well head to the deep roads today.  It's like right around the corner, could hit them before they even make it down the street!

Avernus has lived longer than the majority of humankind, despite his taint.

Well even if it seems futile, you must ensure the Theirin bloodline continues. The bloodline symbolizes something really important to Ferelden, so you must do whatever it takes to ensure it continues.

The taint isn't threatening to kill them when they are 20 or 30. But 20-30 years after they undertake the joining.

30 years after the joining. Otherwise, Loghain would certainly not survive the joining.

I'm sorry. 2 divorces must leave painful scars.

You know that the life span in medieval times was usually 20-30? Chances are the infection allows you to live longer than the normal person due to the benefits.

What benefits, sensing darkspawn?



There are no perks despite sensing darkspawn and killing archdemons.

Its approximately 30 years after being tainted. Not up to the age of 30. As for slim chance of having kids, not a problem. There is actually an option ingame to say something along the lines, looks like we will be very busy then.



As some have said 30 years is a long time, lets say you conceive a child in the first 10 years, you will still get to see them grow up to the 20s and be old enough to inherit the throne.

Aren't grey warden's supposed to be super spechial? I assumed it gave you better reflexes or some nonsense like that.

Average mediaval age is 20-30 because child death pulls the average down. People in the medieval ages got almost as old as we do now, if they survived childhood.

mm a tainted bloodline ... that's almost as interesting as the whole morrigan and the god child debate. if it's difficult to conceive a child then maybe we should have our own dark ritual to ensure that only one try is needed :P

other than that lots of couples in history (and even now) do not live long and have lots of children so it's not that special by itself, you just have some more information than others about how long you'll live.

They said it very hard for one tainted to conceive let alone two who to say a child would of been produced in time?
Thats why i better off the warden not marrying Alistair and Alistair marrying anora.  As much as i hate her this is true.

No, they didn't.  The absence of any significant health care saw to that.  There's a reason chronic disorders have seen a rise in causes of fatalities.  Because we ended up handling lots of acute cases that were previously fatal.  Medieval period couldn't do much about either.

Of course, they didn't have MAGIC!  Which should be able to handle tons.

none ... but this happens in real life too ... even more and more because of all the kinds of pollution people come in contact with.
the certainty in life is that nothing is really certain.

I know that I am going to die some time in the future.  Possibly the very near future. I hope not, but who knows. That doesn't stop me from getting married and spawning future gamers.  It takes a special kind of bravery (or stupidity ;)) to say that, for the time given to us, I devote myself to you and to whatever family we make.  People who aren't living with a death sentence often don't suceed.  But thankfully, even knowing that the odds are against any marriage working in this day and age, it doesn't stop people from trying.

Do you read Robert Jordan?  You may be thinking of Warders from the Wheel of Time.  Maybe Wardens do get benefits but nothing comes to mind.

The taint is not passed to the children of the grey wardens. The taint is not hereditary. Levi Dryden is living proof of that.



I think if you tried every night for 10 years to have a baby, you would end up pregnant, unless you had some real medical / physical reason you couldnt have children, but then that has nothing to do with the taint.

Wardens get a free talent point.

He's also thinking of what Duncan says.  He claims that they must pay a price for their powers.  Yeah... the totally functional darkspawn detection and ability to die.

The ability to destroy a GOD! sounds better that way...
