If my lover betrayed me and my cause, especially if it lead to the deaths of others close to me or the ruin (since that would entail "game over" I'll concede near-ruin) of the Inquisition, would I exact my revenge if given the chance?
Yes. Yes, I would.
I'd enjoy the Fireworks here on the BSN. Fan tears make for excellent martinis.
But like you can agree with Andres.
What If a DA:I companion one you happened to be romancing was like "Nah I'm out, Elder One has a point"
And then they leave to bow before their new god.
Hey if they go to the Elder One's side... well its over for them.
Requiescat in Pace Betrayer. (Love how Ezio says this... well minus the Betrayer part)
Depends on betrayal. If LI wants to become enemy of Inquisition it seems I wouldn't have much choice. However if they want to leave I will let them leave in peace.
I support justice.
Actually, do I need to wait for them to betray me? As long as I find out they're a villain who plans to do such a thing, justice can be served.
Hooooooold on there... let me get this straight... you want to date Justice? the dead guy?
I suppose for me it would depend on what they did. What they were doing when I caught them, and what they were planning to do.
I mean, if they did something a bit bad, but then left to start a family and settle down and that's how I found them, I'd probably leave them alive.
But if they've gone batpoop and sacrificing people to the old gods, I'd probably kill them.

I would. Otherwise folk in the Inquisition will start thinking I'm going soft. Not only I need to make them an example that the order won't take betrayal kindly, I can't let past feelings cloud what my old LI did.
I tell you f**k the dog worst it will do is steal a buiscut.
Why is everyone convinced we have a traitor in our midst? xD
your supposed to twirll a moustach when saying that.

It would be too boring otherwise.
They would become my new court jester.
It depends on how extreme the betrayal is, but I think I would rather arrest them and stick them in the dungeons for a while than just kill them. At least while they're in the dungeon, they can't interfere (except perhaps Solas?) and your choice doesn't have to be permanent.
No.
If there was an option to kick his ass and take him to task for betraying my character, yes. If he is genuinely contrite for it would my Inquisitor forgive him, yes. Would he have to kiss ass to get back into my quizzie's good graces, definitely.
There is a similar situation in one of the SWToR storylines, where a companion you romance betrays you. Since he's the healer, killing him (and there was an option to kill him in Beta) is kind of like shooting yourself in the foot. They adjusted it to you can 1) forgive him and make him go back to earning your trust or 2) bring him back, but sever the relationship.
I'd be content with that arrangement.
Ah Gawd! Don't remind me . That sucked ! not everyone romanced that backstabbing idiot or use him and the option to strangle him indifintly should be there...instead he act like nothing ever happen . Maddening!!
****. If I love the person and he loves me, and my beloved has been through the worst of the Inquisition beside me, then his betrayal must have a VERY good reason behind it.
First, I'd go after him to get some explanations. Then, I'd demand to know what the hell happened to make him change his mind so abruptly. I mean, he could've done this for a million reasons. He could've been coerced. What if by betraying me, he managed to ransom a relative kidnapped by the servants of the Elder One? Or avoided his home village being razed to the ground by an enemy's army? I don't know.
For a person to stand beside you in something so black and white as an inquisition, where your loyalties are clearly defined, people simply won't wake up one morning and think: This is it. I've had enough of ths crap. I'm switching sides! This is war. It's not like picking a fight with a friend because he likes to use plastic instead of paper bags in the supermarket. Or drink Pepsi instead of Coke. This is some serious ****.
You can be court-martialled for this. You can be sent to prison and rot in there for the rest of your (now) miserable life. You can be hanged. You can be beheaded. You can be forced to commit suicide.There are some motherfreaking consequences for treason during wartimes. So I seriously doubt someone would take the initiative to become involved with the Inquisitor unless he knew firsthand full well where he stood in the war.
The alternative would be for him to be a spy or double agent hellbent on working against you. Then it would be the brig or death penalty if the chance for him to escape were considerable. But in this last case, there were no true love for starters, so screw him and his backstabbing.
So yes, I'd go after him. But not to kill him. Because for such a drastic change to take place, I'd believe until the last minute, 'till the last second, that he was backed so badly into a wall that he was left with simply no other choice. And then, if I managed to learn the truth somehow, then I'd kill the son of a b.... that put him in this whole mess in the first place.
This .
Seriously , the whole 'Kill it with fire'...is a bit over the top . No matter what kind of power you have over others , it doesn't mean it just a red button to push for fun whenever you feel like it .
If a LI betray you , you need to know the why . Even Anders doesn't always die in my game (and I never romanced him) .
for me i'm too close to the issue and cannot think objectively.
and thus i'll shall consult the beacon of reasoning and patience to make the decision............ oh look here she comes now:
Cowards and traitors deserve no second thoughts, only their complete annihilation.
If my LI just leaves then I let them leave. If they become a hindrance to the Inquisition then I may have to kill them, though I wouldn't like it. It would likely break my characters heart, but she gotta do what's best for Thedas and not herself.
I think, perhaps, everyone has the possibility of disagreeing with you and, therefore, acting against you. Sometimes folks do it for reasons that are understandable; for me both the act and the reason are important in terms of reaction, though. Everything is situational.
Edit: Your romancing a character said character betrays you and the Inquisition in a very personal manner and leaves the Inquisition/your side permanently. Later you're given a quest where you can track this person down and kill them.
Do you take the quest?
While the above stands, I would be interested in checking the quest out just to see what happens and what the end options are. Sometimes video game curiosity gets me in trouble, but luckily I save often.
We're talking about a game right? Sure why not hunt down the traitor. I'm not going to put that much emotional attachment to a non-existent entity.

Feeling the need to hunt someone down is a pretty emotional response, otherwise you wouldn't care.

Don't need to, it's just something else to do in the game. Why leave it undone? Maybe they'll give some emotional speech and try to change my mind. Or they'll give more background to the MQ or their own background. I'd hate to miss that.

Hooooooold on there... let me get this straight... you want to date Justice? the dead guy?
Justice looks a lot cuter and less dead than I remember.
I tell you f**k the dog worst it will do is steal a buiscut.
And hump everyone's legs.
