Morrigan... I think she is the product of her upbringing, truly, and she does show emotions at some points that seem authentic. Her character does soften. But then, there's a lot of scenarios with her I've not played through yet. Why have I not seen a 'Justifying Morrigan' thread? lol I'm really hoping she will turn out to be capable of caring for others, truly. I at least have to give her points for being honest with my character and not pretending to be sweet and inocent. I feel like with Morrigan, I KNOW what I'm getting myself into, to some degree at least, much like with Zevran. When she tells you about herself, she's verry streight forward about things that she knows might make you uncomfortable or even disguested, depending on who you are and your worldview. Ultimately, she's very survivalistic. Like a wild animal, her continued wellfare and freedom are more important to her than anything else... and I actually realy respect that.
Granted my first character is my Dalish, and Morrigan's views on life are very natural. Easy for someone who lives close to nature and knows what it is to be both a hunter and the hunted to sympathise with. But on the other hand, who knows. I heard there will be times when she says some pretty awfull things, but then, I've played out some of those scenarios and found that in context, she wasn't being monsterous... like at the mage's tower, when she said she didn't want to save people who give up their freedom. Her view of the situation wasn't entirely fair, but it was highly understandable given her background and what is being asked of her.
Oh ES, shhh. You'll give people ideas here, lol.
Morrigan disapproves a lot (with my PCs, at least), but they end up being friends with her anyways. Her speech when the PC gives her the mirror is heart-warming. And yes, I don't think growing up with Flemeth as her mother/mentor was a bowl of cherries and cream.
I found the conversation with Alistair quite intriguing. Morrigan definitely has a point, in that the chantry and the circle are much to blame for the mages flipping out and trying for freedom.
Convo spoilers dead aheadEnd spoilers. Really
- Alistair: So tell me, was the Tower of Magi everything you thought it would be?
- Morrigan: Abominations running rampant? Templars ready to slaughter every mage in sight? Yes, it rather met all my expectations.
- Alistair: You don't think you might have been better off getting your training there? Instead of whatever your mother taught you?
- Morrigan: You're right. My mother didn't nearly have as
many abominations running about. That certainly would have improved my
education.- Alistair: Hmm. I'll give you that one.
- Morrigan: I'm so relieved.
My PCs never allow the ritual, though. Simply because it's a huge decision with plenty of implications and possible consequences and Morrigan will not explain to my PC's satisfaction. Sorry Morri, but "That is all I will say", and "You do not need to know more" will not cut it.
When you do side quests for NPCs, do you ask for rewards? My characters usualy do, and I think maybe that effects her aproval. She's usualy pretty nuetral to me, and in a big moment like in the tower that people **** about so much, I only got a -3, which is nothing, really. Dristen is the character I've played most with, and he's realy very sweet and friendly and well intenioned, but her dissaprovals have been infrequent and usualy pretty small. Odd.
I might do the ritual... I mean... who's to say an old god will be inherantly evil? It IS the vagueness of her explanation that is troubling... But hmmm... I think when I play my mage, he'll go for it. I'd like to go through with her romance with a mage, but I have a feeling Zevran will steal him away. *sigh* I'm already picturing it inside my head.
