So if I wanted to do a playthrough that obeyed BioWare canon (the one they use for writing the novels and comics) what decisions would I have to make?
I'm guessing the characters would be:
Female Dalish Elf Warrior Warden
Not too sure about Awakening
Male Mage Hawke

Choose the second template when importing from DA:O to DAII and Male Mage Hawke was pro mage.
BioWare's Dalish Warden chose the ultimate sacrifice ending, so I'm guessing the events of Awakening were completed by an Orlesian Warden.
I'm pretty sure they never said the gender of Hawke. Please correct me if I'm wrong..
I think in DAII the first choice was a f!Dalish Warden, right? or no?
Yep.I think in DAII the first choice was a f!Dalish Warden, right? or no?

Interestingly, playing with an Orlesian Warden leads to the Sixth Blight epilogue slide.
The most significant implication is that there is another Archdemon for Morrigan to get an OGB from, if the Warden chose not to go through with the dark ritual and allowed someone to die.
You can't really do Bioware Canon in the games since Dalish US should actually break DA2's plot due to Merill's clan being in Ferelden and given a place to build a new dalish settlement.

I'm fairly certain that they didn't, though my best guess would be a Male Mage, though I suppose we'll just have to wait to see what the Studio decides.
Yep.
woops, sorry! 130 am here and I've been debating and staring at my screen for a long time! I meant to say, I'm pretty sure the gender was male, not that they announced it - I'm moreso judging off of all of the m!Hawke trailors 
I hate establishing a default for anything where choices are supposed to be so important
It doesn't help that I'd sooner play Big Rigs Racing than a FemDalish Warden

Really? Wow. My first playthrough of Awakening was with an Orlesian Warden. I was very distracted during the epilogue slides... and apparently, I missed an extra blight.
That would actually make for an interesting default world state if they followed through with that storyline.

that would also reinforce the entire puppet master theme bioware is going for DAI, two blights in one age is unheard of, what if all three remaining archdemons were awakened at the same time and only one went to the surface?
I didn't realize the epilogue slides for an Orlesian Warden could be so different. I would play one if I could actually import my dead DAO Warden's decisions...

Now there's a default I could be happy to play through. Flemeth and the Old Gods/Archdemons are some of my favorite things about the DA universe, so getting to see more of them is a bonus.
Alistair is king in the books/comics, though I don't know if they are specific about him being hardened or not.
Also, it's implied from Alistair's dialogue with Sten (now the Arishok) that he joined the Warden's party in DAO.
From a different thread posing more or less the same question.

I wasn't sure, but then I saw this on Twitter, and now I just don't know, soooo what exactly is the case here? In Asunder was their a pro-mage Hawke and a dead Dale with Alistair as king, or could it just be any choices, provided Wynne's alive and Shale recruited.
I'm confused, and now the website's been changed, my mind cannot handle this all at once. *explodes*
Well, Wynne says she got a present from the Warden. The only way that could've happened is if the Circle was saved and she traveled with him/her (even briefly, if the Ashes were tampered with), since Irving's still alive as well. If the Circle is annihilated in DAO, Wynne fights that decision and "dies" for it.
Since Shale and Wynne mention the trip to Tevinter, it's also safe to say Wynne was not present for the defilement of the Ashes, since that's a discussion she entertains far later on. After the Archdemon's death is when it's brought up, and IIRC she mentions that's when she's only recently talked to Shale about it.
So arguably pro-mage Warden. Certainly "pro-save the Mages" Warden.
But that's only the default world-state, not strictly canon. In other words, it's Bioware's world-state for their games as opposed to the world-state for all games.
The ashes were defiled in the BioWare's state?
No no, that's not what I said haha. What I meant was that, since Wynne's alive, either the Ashes were defiled and she wasn't there, they were defiled and she was there and subsequently talked down, or they weren't defiled at all.
I'm merely talking of how Wynne having traveled with the Warden has its own effect on other scenarios. The dialogue and other things in supplemental material tell us more then meets the eye.
At face value, some things seem like they say only one thing, but Wynne having traveled with the Warden says that the Circle was saved (and more then that), since Irving is alive as well.

OHHH. Sorry about that. But now that I think about it wouldn't be a cool import choice for BWS (BioWare's World State)

I didn't even know that was possible.

You have to have four in the coercion skills or three and buckets of cunning.
