I like my newest Aeducan, Dwarf, Warden better than my previous cannon Warden so as soon as I finish my play through I'm going to make him my cannon Warden for Inquisition. I'm 100 percent sure on all of my choices except for the Architect.

 

This guy is trying to do a good thing by curing the Darkspawn of their madness, giving them free will and intelligence, and may prove to be a valuable ally in the future. On the other hand this guy has nearly fucked the world over twice with his experiments and might just be too dangerous to let live. What should I do?

But you have to wonder if he is also a Magister like Corypheus. did he lose his memory or does he hate the old gods and blame them for this curse. personally i let him live just because he seems more than just a villain trying to destroy the world, to me he is an anti hero at best.

First off wrong place to post this topic, this should be in the Origins forum.

 

That being said I say kill him.  He's clearly messing with things that are way beyond his ability to predict, or control. Also if the darkspawn all become intelligent I see them as potentially being more dangerous that just mindless killing machines they are know.

He didn't attack the keep. the mother did. the mother wanted to kill all the wardens so the architect couldn't use their blood and couldn't use them against her.

I actually spared him the first time out of pure curiosity because I thought it was really interesting that we were given the choice. In all my other files I have killed him, though.

I spared him! The narrative possibilities if he's alive are much more interesting. Plus, the Warden's job is to defeat the Blights..Architect could be a tool in that. Its tricky because if you meta game you know he may have caused the last one, but even knowing that, I spare him. I just like him, shrug.

Kill him.  Spared him once, then thought about it some more, then realized I had made a terrible mistake.

The Mother attacked Vigils Keep at the end of Awawkening, but it was the Architect, who attacked it in the beginning. He wanted to capture the Wardens to use their blood. Several NPCs mention Wardens being taken.

Let him live. He's the only thing alive that we players know of that can cure the Blight. His research along with Avernus' would be very valuable to the Grey Wardens and people who get infected by circumstance.

If I recall that was more of self-defense on Darkspawn's part. They wanted to talk.

At the start of the game it is the Architect's Darkspawn that is attacking Vigil's Keep. However that was all a result of a misudnerstanding (supposedly), since the Warden's didn't expect the Darkspawn to talk, and the Darkspawn didn't possess basic social capabilities yet. Nevertheless, the Architect's intentions weren't for the Keep to be sacked.

Another thing to think of is Corypheus. Assuming both the Architect and Corypheus return in Inquisition and assuming the Architect is a Magister like he appears, he might be the only one who knows how to stop Corypheus for good. Killing Corypheus once didn't seem to work out so well. I think the Architect would fight against Corypheus because he doesn't seem to be pure evil like Corypheus is.

I didn't see him say beginning. my mistake. and yes i know what you're talking. 

 

My question is. is a king responsible for a captain deciding to kill people or mistaking orders?

I let him live. I mean talking darkspawn? The possibility he presents is too fascinating to kill him. It'll probably go badly, but the world's richer for him living.

What? Also the Architect and Corypheus are nothing alike. I doubt he's a magister.

"I'm a Grey Warden. That is why I don't follow the tenets of my Order, which is to stop the Blight at all cost, not kill darkspawn. "

 

The Architect's already 0 for 1 on the whole stopping the Blight thing.  I suppose he could be left to fail twice more, and then that would mean no more Old gods, and thus no more Blights?  And that's assuming that the threat ends when the number of potential Archdemons hits zero, and that the Darkspawn won't, without the song to call them, abandon the Deep Roads and go on a taintfest across Thedas.

 

I'm not sure why one would assume supporting the Architect really leads to the "Blight is stopped" outcome.  Plus, there's still the fact that even if they're intelligent, Darkspawn are still walking zones of localised disease and death, and they only reproduce by, well, do we really need the whole explanation of the birds and the Broodmothers?  The Darkspawn are extremely dangerous, extremely violent parasites.  The Architect might have a noble goal, but just letting him go free is extremely irresponsible.  Capturing him might be reasonable, but you don't have that option.

Speaking just in terms of appearance, they look rather similar, and very little like any other Darkspawn.  Given that the Architect is so unique compared to any other Darkspawn we've seen, and he can't explain his own past, it's not completely strange to think he might be an amnesiac Magister.

What happens if one of the old gods is awakened by something other then a darkspawn. Will it still be corrupted? Then would it help you destroy the darkspawn so that they wouldn't be a threat to it anymore?
