Not very important but I'm curious as to where he's from. I would assume he is from Ferelden given his voice is the same as male Hawke, and that he may have been in the Ferelden magi tower but there is no proof. and he states about his origin that "Freedom's price is never cheap, but that was hundred leagues and a lifetime ago." Could he be from where Morrigan has ventured to? As she went through the Eluvian and maybe Malcolm came through one as well. Just speculation.

Well, we know that he was once a Circle mage (his ghost says so in Legacy), and that he was friends with a templar and that a mage in the gallows knew of that (Carver's companion quest).

I doubt he was from beyond the Eluvain, though they did purposefully hide his face in Legacy, so maybe there is more to him, after all? (Or they just liked the mystery it added.)

Incidentally, I love Nicholas Boulton's voice anyway, but his Malcolm voice is really awesome. I wish there had been more of him in Legacy...

Nicholas Boulton's voice really suits the Medieval setting. Maybe, just maybe Malcolm could become more important in DA3. It could be really awesome or a bad plot decision to reveal Malcolm was a spirit a bit like Justice.

Ha. I found it. (I recalled an item suggesting that he was secretive about his origins.)

Good find. He may have stood on a kitten's tail and regretted it ever since.

Malcolm Hawke may be from the Tevinter Imperium

Par Vollen.
I imagine being a mage in Qunari hands would give anyone nightmares.

He could have been a slave or apprentice who escaped from there.

Then he would have had his lips sewn close. I think Leandra would not have liked it.:lol:

You're all wrong -- well, save for Firky. Firky's posting to a wiki link from an in-game codex. He may not have talked about his past, but he's certainly a Fereldan. For one thing, the name Hawke -- as in Malcolm Hawke -- is a Fereldan name. For another, Gamlen calls him a Fereldan apostate.

I just get the feeling that Malcolm did not like being a Mage for something he saw in Tevinter because we all know those are some of the craziest Mages ever lol and didn't he know blood magic

They obscured his face because Hawke is supposed to resemble his father IIRC. That or they didn't feel like variating him like they do Carver and Bethany.

From all I heard. Malcolm was Fereldan-born but was sent to the Circle of Magi in Kirkwall(It happens, if one Circle is too few or is overcrowded, they send mages to them, hence how the Amell Warden ended up in Kinloch Hold) He also spent some time as a Mercenary according to codexes. He let Leandra at a party where Circle Mages were called on to entertain the nobility(I presume that ended when Meredith took over) and later began sneaking off to meet Leandra and court her.

Leandra got pregnant and they ran off, and thats when the Grey Wardens got ahold of him and forced him to use Blood Magic to enforce Corypheus' seal.

And yean, Nicholas Boulton definitely moved up since Origins. He went from voicing Bann Vaughan Urien Kendalls(the noble douche that raped Shianni in the City Elf Origin) to being the leading man of DAII

Gamlen calls him a Ferelden apostate, but "The Long Trek" makes it clear Malcolm's past is a secret to his wife and family; he didn't talk about it.

Ever since reading the item description for "The Long Trek", I've been unable to shake the feeling that Malcolm was the protagonist of one of those awful "He was living an ordinary, boring life as an ordinary, boring gamer until one day he got sucked into Ferelden!" self-insert fics. :P

you know what I wonder... did Morrigan and Malcom ever meet? Hawkes were living in Lothering and Morrigan talks about how she would visit Lothering, usually in animal form, but also mentions she would talk to some of the 'men'. hmmm

"Men"=sex with the witch, and if that's the case then Malcolm is a dirty man.
