Nah, the canon warden is going to be a dwarf woman to make up for Hawke's existence.

What sex you are changes what options you have. Stop being absurd.

Why the hell does it matter for a character that you are not playing?

Seriously...
I'd strangle all these "If they make Hawke/Shep an X insted of Y I will RAEG because my Shep/Hawke is Y" to death if I could.

A character I'm not playing? Anymore, you mean? Still my character. Canon, sanctity of the player character etc.

I'll guard my neck.

They will never be canonized. That would estroy what DA stands for

[Navasha]

Not sure it would ever bother me. I played DA:O through so many times, that I am pretty sure I had every possible storyline/quest decision at one point or another.

[StarcloudSWG]

The Chantry is very unlikely to canonize either Hawke or the Warden.

Canonized Hawke and Warden:

They are already canonized, do you even know what that word means?

to set canon means declaring a certain set of events, traits and actions happened, with no variations. 

The Warden could come from many Origins, two genders, decide many things (like the Dwarven king, curing/killing werewolves, saving Connor, etc.). Hawke could be two genders, be a Mage or non-Mage and could, amongst other things, side with the Mages or the Templars. 

That many options means there is no canon.

LOL, there's always this guy.  On every internet forum.  

This board really needs an eye-rolling emote.

There you go.

The definition of a canon is a "collection of knowledge" mostly used for law and religion.

The bible is a canon over Christian and Jewish scriptures.

When you talk about canon in terms of game lore and concerning branching stories and multible outcomes it covers every possible outcome and cobination of story elements.

How do you figure that?  Colloquially, it has always meant determining certain options in a branching true while disregarding others in the gaming community.

I see no rolling of eyes. That's more of a dubious look. I would use that if I were uncertain if you had no idea what we're talking about. But I'm sure that you do, so would need to roll my eyes at how clever you think you're being.

Indeed, which is why i'm the caped crusader destined to change that!

Not you character. Never was to beign with. It is BioWares.

If you really want to nitpick, consider the canon Wadern/Hawke an alternate universe...therefore not your Hawke/Warden.

[Icesong]

Well, there is no canon Warden/Hawke yet so I don't need to worry about it. But if there were to be then it would be my Warden and Hawke that's the alternate universe. Not nearly so enjoyable.

[Snypy]

I think it's unlikely BioWare would canonize Hawk or the Warden. I'm not sure if I'd like to play a game that would canonize either protagonist from the previous games.

[Battlebloodmage]

Can't see the obsession people have with seeing old protagonists. The warden could be dead, so they can't really give a big role to him/her (especially since the blight is over, and the wardens have to remain neutral), Hawke is just a random refugee who was caught up between the war between the mages and the templars. S/he's not that important in the Dragon Age universe as a whole yet. Basically, both protagonists are disposable and are not as important as some make them out to be. Having them meet the protagonist is just a fan-service and is not really needed. They could do stuffs in the background, and the game could mention them to a certain extend but having them personally appear would just cause a lot of problems: Why isn't my LI with my protagonist?, my warden is an elf, why does my Hawke have boobs? They can't expect too much bad press for the game in which a lot of fans look forward to as "redemption".

From whose perspective?
As far as your Warden/Hawke are concerned, every universe except for theirs is the alternate.

[Icinix]

Hope so - big fan of the warden trailers from DAO to the point my 'canon' warden looked as close as possible to trailers.
