Yeah, I did the same thing one game and proceeded on like normal and had no problem romancing him. He's probably the companion who's bad side is the hardest to get on.


Idk, someone laid out the things you gotta do to get him to leave, and that was gonna be my pt! Exile wardens, drink from well, etc. Wringing my hands every time I have to make a big choice...its
Spoiler
all over again!

I was just thinking about this last night. Yes, Fenris would initially lunge and Dorian would just woah woah it to make the peace. Fenris can be reasoned with sure but he's got some deep seeded issues, and Dorians dialogue about slaves not being that bad off? Oy... would be a wonderful fic!

Trust me, there are fics (a few well done, but most were not my thing).

 

Also, I think there is a pretty good chance that Dorian will go into any meeting knowing who Fenris is ahead of time (Fenris is included in the Tale of the Champion and Dorian is the biggest researcher/book worm we have, if Cassandra and the Inquisitor has read it, so has Dorian). So I think he will do alright in their first meeting, especially since he wont be 'hi, I am a mage, not a magister, from Tevinter and I don't hate slavery, what is your name?'

Don't forget the "I like men." bit.  :P

You are right!

"Hi, my name is Dorian, I am a mage from Tevinter, I like men and don't hate slavery. What is your name?"

 

The main thing I see Dorian getting in trouble with (in the first meeting at least) is the lyrium-infused markings since I have no doubt he will be fascinated by them.

Dorian is very well read and Fenris is largely illiterate soooo I still think Fenris will pounce and Dorian will have to make the peace. Fenris strikes me as the kind of man who needs some black and white in his life to make things easier. Love Fenris, don't get me wrong, ended up with him every time! But he's a slaaaave from tevinter

They could bond over their mutual love of fine wines?

Dorian: I can't believe that idiotic idea of Danarius' actually worked.

Fenris: Says the man who invented time magic.

Dorian: Touché.

But BWs track record has always favoured male gamers (Leliana, Morrigan, Isabella) and whose superfangirls (Cullen). I dont think they will prioritize a gay LI interest? I do hope so, but considering the size of fan base for Dorian, I dont think its likely.

 

 

But I hope you are right. :)

 

They better bloody had do. :P  Continuance of Dorian gives one so many tasty options. Dorian at the senate crossing the rubicon. Dorian living in a cave as a guerilla fighter. Dorian on the run and fighting for his life being sheltered by believers. Take your pick. :wub:

Hello my fellow Dorianites I need to ask some advice . I will be staring my third play through and want to go the Templar route as in I want to do Champions of the Just instead of In Hushed Whispers , so how do I but have Dorian not hate me ? lol I still wanna romance him but I have read the Templar mission is something to be seen and Dorians entrance is awesome . Thanks


Man knows how to make an entrance! And Cole's intro makes more sense that way, too. Just kill a few Venatori and flirt with him every chance you get!

I am back with another question! First game I didn't romance Dorian & he & Iron Bull started their relationship. Now that I'm in Dorian's romance I'm worried about Iron Bull stealing him away. Can that happen? I noticed some of the flirtatious banter starts out the same (Dorian: you would see me bound & leashed? IB: I'd buy you dinner first.) I don't want to miss out on good banter but I'm wondering if I need to keep them apart. Lol. Such a first world problem.

Just be sure to flirt and you should be fine. Dorian's flirts are so fun I don't know why you wouldn't in the first place. :D

Dorian is all up in Blackwall's grill about us, in a charming way of course. Is anything he says not charming, even when he's pissed? I blame the james bond accent...

Fenris' deadpan would make him an excellent straight man for Dorian's snarking. Although I think that Fen's belief that Tevinter can't be changed would strike up a fair bit of debate with Dorian.

Inquisitor: What's going on up there?

Varric: The two of them have been arguing for hours. I have to hand it to the elf though, he's shown actual self-control.

Isabela: Do you think they'll kiss?

Inquisitor: Aren't you and Fenris a couple?

Isabela: But they'd be so pretty together. Like a jam sandwich, without bread...and more jam.

Hah! Fenris is with my Hawke, but even she wouldn't mind seeing that action. Both my fem Hawke and male Quis can just stare with their mouths hanging open.

I actually prefer serious Dorian to snarky or playful Dorian. It happens rarely enough that it's nice to see when it does.

It takes me aback, like wow he's protective of our relationship. Love it! Intense Dorian is perfect too. And nerdy bookworm Dorian....gah he's got layers like a parfait

Inquisitor: But I like scruffy Dorian!

Dorian: Well, scruffy Dorian doesn't care for scruffy Dorian.

Inquisitor: Which is why you spend hours in the privy each morning.

Dorian: Perfection takes time Amatus, I can't very well go around looking like Blackwall now can I?

Hey so what's up with being able to break up with Dorian after you start his romance? Cass and Cullen don't have that option. Why is it assumed I'd want to break up with him? It's like Sera, why is she the only one I can kick out with a dialogue tag immediately and not viv? Unfair, I'm tempted to click it and then reload!

Most of my stuff ended up being red at the end thanks to dragon scales/webbing/whatever parts of the dragon I was using. Also, for some reason I couldn't understand, the formal attire ended up being the best gear I could have stuck Dorian in. It was at the same armor stat as my supreme light armor of the dragon. So I always found it funny that I had these heavily armored characters and then Dorian in the ball attire

I actually wondered about the same thing, I don't know, it feels like the romance never "locks", you know? Which is completely stupid in my opinion.

I know, right?? But there was that dialogue right after you spend the night together about what the future holds. Thats unique to him too and he kind of just says "we'll see". Wtf?! There's no "we'll see". Forever, dammit!
