So are dead former companions making cameos in Dragon Age Inquisition?


Inquisitor: Hang on? You're Anders right?
Anders: Yes. What of it?
Inquisitor: Didn't Hawke kill you?
Anders: You do realise I'm a healer? A spirit healer no less.
Inquisitor: So you healed yourself.
Anders: So the Inquisitor has a brain after all.

________________________________________________________________________________


Inquisitor: Hang on? You're Leliana right?
Leliana: That is true.
Inquisitor: Didn't the Grey Warden kill you?
Leliana: Well. That's what people keep saying. 
Inquisitor: You didn't answer my question.
Leliana: Well, Sacred Ashes and a bit of magic from a necromancer can work wonders. That necromancer was a cute hunky Orlesian man.:wub:

Inquisitor: So you're definitely dead?
Leliana: If if makes you feel better, I am a zombie. 
Inquisitor: Okay. I'm creeped out. I am literally talking to a dead woman.:sick:

________________________________________________________________________________


Inquisitor: Okay, let me guess. You're supposed to be dead, but managed to cheat death.
Morrigan: I'm sorry. I don't follow.
Inquisitor: The whole magic mirror thing and being killed by Grey Warden.
Morrigan: Didn't happen.
Inquisitor: But it's been documented.
Morrigan: As you can see, I am very much alive.
Inquisitor: But the Grey Warden killed you.
Morrigan: The Grey Warden killed who he thought was me.
Inquisitor: I'm confused.


________________________________________________________________________________


Inquisitor:
 So what did you do to cheat death?
Fenris: My Lyrium tattoes saved my life.
Inquisitor:
 Well that's convenient.
Fenris: Is it convenient that I was almost killed by Hawke, and then suffered multiple area effect spells, not to mention getting torched by Meredith's lyrium sword?
Inquisitor: Not really.
Fenris: I didn't think so. These tattoes are a curse!
Inquisitor: But they saved your life.
Fenris: Speaking of magic. Aren't you a mage?
Inquisitor: Umm. No comment.
Fenris: Filthy mage, leading the Inquisition. We are doomed! 


________________________________________________________________________________


Inquisitor:
 Okay. This is the fifth person I've met who is supposedly dead. How did you survive Sten?
Sten: Survive what?
Inquisitor: Weren't you trapped in a cage back in Lothering?
Sten: No!
Inquisitor: I swear you were.
Sten: I think you're confusing me with a different Qunari. There are many Qunari known as "Sten".
[b]Inquisitor:
Well that was awkward.

I hope this doesn't happen in Dragon Age Inquisition.

It's a BioWare classic. Half of Baldur's Gate 2 was running around, encountering various people from Baldur's Gate, and asking them if they were dead at one point or another.

Lelianna died next to magical ashes that can heal anything. For all we know, she was merely near death. "But we cut off her head with a finishing move!1!!!" Finishing moves aren't really a "canon" thing. It's just something that happened randomly.

There is no confirmation that Morrigan would have died due to being stabbed before falling into the Eluvian. There's a rule of if you don't see the body, don't expect the character's death.

Anders' return in the second game was explained (I don't remember the exact explanation). If he showed up in the third game, I could understand people saying something about that one.

Is there any reason to think Fenris or Sten will show up?

No, he's quite dead. We could have gone to more elaborate lengths to show you... ensuring... that he was dead, but I think it got the point across.

I mean, sure, I guess if we wanted to we could come up with some elaborate explanation as to how he survived anyhow... but that's true with anyone. In this case, particularly since Anders was fully willing to die, I don't think having him live after all that would be very cool."

I agree with Artemis, though I loved your take on the dialog OP!

Fenris--Highly doubt he'll show up, regardless of his fate. I honestly can't think of any reason why he would.

Sten--Probable. He's the Arishok now, according to the comics. He raised in rank after the Arishok in Kirkwall was killed. That will possibly depend on choices made in DA2.

Well Anders obviously merged with Sir Pounce a Lot and has only used 2 of his nine lives.  So we'll be seeing Anders in plenty more games probably :lol:

How does your inquisitor, that wasn't present for any of these events, know the details about these characters, or even who they are, in an age when mass communication was still bound by how fast you could travel and how much paper you had written on?

Anders will be dead in my game

I don't even know what happened to Leliana; so long as she's human I will be fine with it. Ditto Morrigan

Make up a reason time again.
Well perhaps the exploits the Grey Warden are told in just about every major tavern.

As for Hawke's exploits, Varric tells the Inquisitor.

Is Sten gonna be called the Arishok instead of Sten? Anyways, good dialogue, but We know Anders, Fenris are dead if killed and Morrigan never died, just was stabbed. Same thing with Leliana, she was "killed" near ashes with healing effects!

There's nothing to say Sten was trapped in that cage. He wanted to be there and didn't resist. It's possible he saw a small child fleeing Lothering with a bag of cookies and kicked the door open.

Yes, but the reason she is killed is if you defile the ashes... they're not healing anyone after that imo. Because of that I hope they use some other excuse :)

Clearly not.

Interesting how the op seems to believe the inquisitor has insight into the personal lives of total strangers.

Comics aren't canon, unless you character made those particular choices.

Varric being surprised I can see, but not the inquisitor. I don't remember being able to be surprised to see leiliana, nor anders, not until either encountering the wardens or nathanial.

I know that. I said so in my last sentence, as bolded above. :P

I don't think a dead Anders or Fenris will appear, but Leliana and Morrigan being alive is not retcon, nor did they ever die (at least, as far as we know).
Nonetheless, this amused me, especially the Sten one.

You never know with a Bioware writing staff.

Duncan will probably show up in the next game.

From David Gaider:

http://social.biowar...ndex/1690759/31

Duncan is dead. If he appears again, it would have to be in a story that takes place prior to Origins, if anything.


They didn't say as such about Leliana, Zevran, Sten or any other potentially dead companion from Origins. They left that deliberately vague. Not so much here. Duncan is gone for good.

Morrigan was never thought to be dead to begin with.

She is by some forumites.  I've seen a lot of "But I stabbed her at the mirror" posts regarding her and her survival.

Only problem is Justice/Vengence doesn't need a living host and being only recently dead he could probably stabilize Ander's body enough that he wouldn't have the rot problem this time.

Well David Gaider said that your choices have a shelf life of the game you made them in, so pretty much anyone that died as a result of a choice you made in either game can show up in DA:I.

It is what it is after reading that.
