So, backstory idea:
What if my character actually fought the Hero of Ferelden? They were one of the idiots you slaughtered your way through when taking down Jarvia... Except they survived. Barely. Sometimes you can survive sword and dagger wounds, especially if it was a big fight where you'll move right onto the next opponent as soon as an enemy drops and they're not doing any throat cutting to be sure (my warden certainly wasn't the type to do that). They would have been 16-18 at that time, making them roughly between 26 and 28 years on in DAI. I'm not going to pretend my Cadash was some badass back then, they were just one of the dozens of dwarves you cut down with little effort. Because of that, they have a bit of a grudge against them because all they knew of the HoF was that they showed up and killed or seriously injured pretty much every person in the carta because they were one of Bhelen's tools. What's that Dagna? It was a dark time and there was only one light? Yeah, well that light left me with a 15 inch scar across my entire torso and killed friends of mine all for political gain. But still, they do soften up about them after hearing everyone talk about how good they were and Morrigan saying that he's a good person who is a good father and all that stuff. And then (headcanon'd conversation here) Leliana tells them about how one of their ancestors in the body of a golem helped the HoF and was actually the golem they had fighting alongside them in the carta base. Somehow, knowing a living ancestor of theirs helped them do it is the final push that lets them let go of their internal grudge against them. After all, for a dwarf who still does ancestor worship having one of your ancestors help to kick your ass might be a holy sign that you deserved it. And even my dwarf will have to admit that the HoF was pretty impressive, the way they effortlessly took his overconfident ass down in the span of a second was actually pretty amazing when he thinks about it.
You like it? I'm thinking about doing this for my next playthrough, my first male character (dwarf, obviously).
I actually worked out one with a backstory where she'd been a pickpocket and tried to pick the pocket of one of my Tabris, but was caught (because that Tabris was a rogue.) Instead of turning her in, Tabris and Zevran, her LI, spent time teaching my Cadash because they were sympathetic.I think it would be funny for her to have a conversation with Leliana about it, scandalizing Josephine and some of the more lawful members of the Inquisition to find out the Hero of Ferelden was also one of the best pickpockets in Thedas and was willing to give streetrats a hand up.
Killing my character?! Oh hell no. I'll refuse to get that DLC and consider it "didn't do it and it didn't happen" non-canon, if that's the case.
Well, like I said, they seem to have some evidence, but I haven't seen it. The survey leak I saw didn't seem to suggest that. And no, I'll save my money for something more original than killing off the protag to clean up the loose ends of the game...
Retour en haut
Anyway, with the Inquisition gone, he and Cass would search for a place to be at peace at least. Also he would eat Nug stew, and lemon cakes.
