The Old God Baby won't appear until the end of the game, when he shows up to present your ending choices to you.

It was announced that in DAI the players will have to choose a background (a non-played origin) for his character. What about the possibilities that the OGB is one of the backgrounds available? It could be one of the best solutions to satisfy both the player that want the OGB to be important and the players that refused the ritual and so don’t want the OGB to even exist (in which case they would simply have to not choose this background).

About the age of the OGB it could either be explained by the fact that the OGB grows faster than human and/or by the fact that the time passes faster in the realm beyond the Fade that Morrigan accessed through the Eluvian.

Naturally it is just speculation but to my point of view it would be an “easy” solution to satisfy the OGB lover without spending too many resources on something that many players won’t see.


This is a pretty good idea actually. But I believe BioWare has other plans for the OGB (if any at all).

Heh, maybe they should make it an optional romanceble companion, for all of the straight male population of the forums to hate his butt, for being  so special. :lol:

Seriosuly they DID have an option to not to state its gender, but they choose to do it in the WH.  So yes, they are NOT planning to make it playable.

It could be possible for all of the males to be the OGB (assuming the Warden/Alistair/Loghain did the ritual or not). Just like how the Orlesian Warden ended up being the Commander of Vigils Keep if the Warden sacrificed him/herself.

I'd prefer it didn't happen. The Old God, that is, Blight causing super-dragon (afaik), would have to be nerfed to all hell.

Edit: I'm assuming Old God soul = Old God powers/wisdom/knowledge

I would like to experience the character, but not as a playable one or a party member. Also He should be the correct age and not super grow or something

Pretty sure the OGB only has the soul of an old god in a human body, which would likely mean that he develops like a normal human.

So he's Dovahkin?

 In that case, DA:I wouldn't happen, because the OGB doesn't exist. =]

According to Morrigan, the OGB child isn't aware of being anything other than a normal child.  Though one of those teaser concept arts seemed to suggest that the Inquisitor had some special power...

I'd love to be able to play my Warden's son, so if the Inquisitor turned out to be the OGB, that'd be awesome.  I don't really see why the Inquisitor couldn't be the OGB in games with the DR imported, and something perhaps different in non-DR playthroughs.  I think there would certainly be things in need of explaining, but that shouldn't be difficult, especially in a fantasy game full of magic happenings.

Oh really? Thanks for the clarity. Though, now that you've said that, the only incorporation I can see is bringing him as a kid into battle. If he goes full adult, there's a bit of character development I'd personally feel cheated about. Introduce him in this game, have him age, and then DA4 gets him. That'd be my optimal scenario . I think the censors might draw a line see a blood soaked whippersnapper anyway. I definitely want him in the game, especially if my Warden is showing. Man, what an awesome dynamic that'd be. OGB as a cosmic Clementine.

This is where the last sentence in my last paragraph comes in.

I think the fact that Morrigan's child is male makes you playing as the OGB pretty unlikely, as much as I would have loved being the daughter of Morrigan and my Warden. 

I believe the child, if he is growing normally, will probably be between the ages of 10-15 at the start of DAI. Who knows, time might elaspe in this game as it did in DA2, so at the end of the game he could be older and perhaps a party member. 

Either way, I do believe that if you chose the OGB to happen, that it will play a crucial part in the main story line as suggested by Mike in the latest GI video.

There's also the possibility that Morrigan wasn't telling the truth about the child's gender.  This would be the easiest and least of the things which have been retconned, considering we never even see the child.  And she also takes the child to a world "beyond the Fade" with the Eluvian, and for all we know, time there is different from time in Thedas.  Not only could the child be older than we think, we also have no idea what Morrigan's plan was in taking the child to that place.  It's possible the child could have been altered, if there wasn't something already different to begin with.  Morrigan only said that she needed to gain "power" for her plan to work.

uh no.
I'm assuming the OGB will be like any other child.
Like superman found in that crater.
He won't know or remember anything at first.
Maybe as he gets older he'll have dreams.

I expect Morrigan has others raising him for her, he'll still be a young boy and while those who did the ritual will see him he most certainly won't be a party member.

Again the child is male secondly the child is human if the Warden was a HN/HM or female
The only Human/Elf child we've seen is human even with an Elven mother so having an Elven father is irrelevant the child is human.
It's unknown if Dwarves are fertile with humans but most likely the child's race would be largely dependent on it's mother's while inheriting some characteristics from it's father's so mostly human.

Thus The OGB can't be the Inquisitor.

We don't really know how old he is since we don't know when DAI begins. 

Based on the calender, he should be either 10-11 years old when Varric is being interrogated.

We do if they remain consistent with what they've shown us in the previous titles and don't ignore biology.

Thedosian biology is wonky to begin with.  Considering that elf-blooded children turn out human for supposedly magical reasons, I imagine hypothetical magical reasons could also make one turn out elven.  We have no biology book that explains what an Old God soul does to a child. And the only character in canon rumored to be a half-dwarf (Sandal) looks like a dwarf.

That was actually explained via human genes being stronger*dominant?* than Elven*recessive?*.According to Morrigan nothing.*granted her knowledge is limited*
If his father's human and mother a Dwarf that would explain that.*ofcourse the reverse would validate you*

Higly unlikely, if they ever planed to make it playable they wouldn't have fixed it as male.

In DAO all the Origins have race and class restriction so it shouldn’t be such a problem to have gender restriction for one of the backgrounds in DAI.


For such a snowflakey background - No way.


Gaider has stated that the introduction of the multiple races means the backgrounds are out, anyway.
