aka the poor souls that Duncan couldn't save since he can only save one in a playthrough. :(

Dwarf Noble - He doesn't make it to the surface and is killed in the Deeproads, his baby remains casteless. (And he's always male for some reason)

Dwarf Commoner - Just as Leske says one day she just stops eating. (even though it could have been possible that he was referring to someone else)

Dalish Elf - He dies of course.

City Elf - This is my canon playthrough, though in alternate universes where I don't play as her I kinda think she may just have become a mouthy servant in Tevinter. :(

Mage - Sent to Aeonar. (Which is okay because she's fracking evil)

Human Noble - I made up a little headcanon where she escapes the castle while pregnant with Dairren's child. (which causes lots of drama naturally)

What do you think happened to them? lol

They die, but I did head canon one's escape.

Dwarf Noble--is male, dies in the deep roads. May or may not have a child who may or may not be adopted into House Aeducan/Harrowmont. Depends on if Mardy has enough gumption to push for adoption, which I can see happening considering the low birth rate, and the fact she's a noble hunter, which requires its own brand of 'gumption' to be.

Dwarf Commoner--dies. You find the corpse in with Leske where he/she 'just gave up and stopped eating'.

Dalish elf--dies or becomes so tainted he/she is a ghoul like Tamlen.

City elf--dies. Possibly raped AND killed or just killed fighting off her attackers, trying to keep from being raped. Either way, dead because she had no means to fight her way out of the estate. Mentioned in my fanfic as having fought so hard against Vaughan he snapped her neck in the struggle.

Mage--executed for helping Jowan escape. Lily might have been sent to Aeonar, but she was an acolyte. Since mages are persecuted just for being mages, in all likelihood, she was killed. But she may have been sent to Aeonar.

Human noble--dead when Howe attacked the castle, either defending her parents or during the fight to get to the servants' entrance. I did have the HN escape in my fanfic (my warden was the elven mage), but it was kind of a 'Mulan' thing where he left the castle right after Fergus and went to Ostagar, thus saving his honor (he never ran from the fight, he wasn't there for it).

They're all set up so that they die without Duncan's help and mostly proceed the same until then.

DN dies in deep roads.
DC ends up back in the cartel's custody after killing beraht and being arrested, dies in cell.
DE dies or is ghoulified from the taint
CE is executed for assaulting vaughan and killing his guards.
Mage is either executed/tranquilised/aeonar'd for helping Jowan, or dies during broken circle if they're a tattle tale.
HN is killed by Howe. Feasibly though the HN could survive without Duncan

It's fairly plausible the human noble survived, baring in mind there was nothing actively blocking the servant's exit, and Bryce told them to go and tell Fergus about the attack. Duncan wasn't actually necessary for their escape, as far as I can see. Then again, it's also fairly plausible (s)he wouldn't leave his/her parents and chose to die by their side.

The city elf's fate is similarly dubious, depending on gender. Without Duncan to arm the rescue party, it seems the females (including a female warden) are in for a grim fate, though possibly not murdered at the end of it. It's not obvious what fate would befall a male city elf, though the Tevinter slavers are a looming threat for the elves later on, of course.

It's far from certain the mage warden would have been punished for Jowan's escape at all - it's plausible they were working under Irving's orders, and he does defend them against Greagoir. Then again, if they weren't sent away or executed for aiding Jowan then they most likely perished during Uldred's attack.

The others almost certainly died. The Dalish Elf of the taint, and the Dwarf Noble in the deep roads. The Dwarf Commoner is the only confirmed death.

Not necessarily, if the Mage betrayed Jowan. Gregoir seemed to me to let it go in that case.

The others, though, are probably dead. Duncan would have softened up the Howe forces a little, and I got the impression that his expertise was necessary to get the HN around Howe's attempts to track him. The Female CE probably would have been killed; I got the impression Shianni only left alive because they were able to break her. (However temporarily.)

I think all of their fates except the Dalish elf are fairly ambiguous. All we know about about the Dwarf Noble is that he was abandoned into the Deeproads, and that body may be the Dwarf Commoner's body but it doesn't have to be. IIRC you can find it during the a Dwarf Commoner playthrough too.

Without any weapons or armor, and the narrative makes it pretty clear that the only reason you made it to the surface was because Duncan and the Grey Wardens were there. Without them, at best you probably would have ended up like Ruck down there.

and that body may be the Dwarf Commoner's body but it doesn't have to be. IIRC you can find it during the a Dwarf Commoner playthrough too.


On the other hand, Leske mentions how the body stopped eating "all because of a stupid bet," which directly references the Dwarf Commoner Origin when he dares you to go over and talk to Duncan.


With that said, you're right. Their fates are left fairly ambiguous. We don't know what happened to them, but the odds are pretty good their lives weren't great, because at the very least they're not around their home areas when the Warden from a different origin comes around.

If the Mage Warden wasn't executed, he/she may have died during Uldred's uprising.

A Tranquilized mage might have even just left, since apparently the Tranquil are allowed to go. Though since the mage had just passed the Harrowing and assuming Irving hadn't sanctioned his/her actions I think execution is more likely.
