I wis there was a better Queen Anora romance option.  You get an option to marry her but the game always treats it as an attempt to gain the throne even if you do not select those dialog options.  The epilogue even states that you two vie for the throne.  Why isn't there an option to marry her because your character is simply attracted to this strong beutiful woman and has no ambitions toward the throne?

[BeautyoftheBeast]

Probably because you have to gain approval with every other character to start a relationship with them. Storyline-wise, that's really the first time you meet Anora. I guess if Bioware had wanted to make the game longer it would have been an option, but logically speaking coming into Landsmeet then just saying "Hey we're getting married!" without any real relationship sounds like... you're trying to attain the throne.

[Lex Zhu]

Well normally I would agree but there is a number of dialog options you can choose where you specifically state that you're marriing her for the throne. I chose none of those. I even chose the "nervous" dialog option when talking about getting married to her. Couldn't the epilogue at least say that she ushered the golden age supported by her Prince Consort the Grey Warden?

[Virtual_Van_Gogh]

What's the deal with that anyway? One minute it's King Consort, then it's Prince consort... hmmmm.

[casedawgz]

Yeah, I agree with the OP. My character is a pretty straight-laced noble, and it makes sense for him to get married to someone from his world, rather than go off on a whirlwind romance with an apostate mage or an Orlesian bard. I was sorta hoping for maybe an indication of a little more affection in Awakening, or at least some indication that they don't have a solely FDR/Eleanor business relationship. I did, after all, dump Leliana and say that I thought I could learn to love Anora.

This woman was stepping over her father's corpse to grab at the throne scant seconds after he was killed. Nothing in her personality suggests she was anything other than completely all business over such an arrangement. Not even her Elektra complex came between her and that throne. Refuses to take the oath when told to if she loses it too. That throne is all she cares about.



HNM might feel differently about her but Anora cares only about the throne.

[VampireCommando]

well i was busy screwing morrigan, not to mentioin in love with her whilst i has my mother..... i mean wyne saying shes a bad apple like all mothers do ^^ so i got her and alistair together but like the others have stated, she does seem to be throne mad and i think thats all she cares about. Given time i think she'll come to love alistair, i mean come on his quick wit and funny jokes and melt even the coldest heart

[dan107]

The straight laced all business types are usually wild in bed though. I'm not sure about a full romance, but some sexual tension with Anora would've been nice I think.

[CraigELL]

it would've been cool if u could romance anora but at least you can marry her and become King or consort or whatever  and btw why is my characters not updating it says i hav characters that i deleted a long time ago and it doesnt hav my characters that i've got the now can anyone tell me how this has happened please

Dude, she's not that into you. LOL She wants the throne and you're the way to get to it. Maybe something could develop in time, but in-game you're just her path to keeping power.

[saruman85]

LOL. Oh snap.

[Viva la France]

I wonder if Anora would be up for a threesome with Leliana. lol

After all she would do anything for power. lol

I think its purely a purely a popular / political thing.   She knows people like the sound of a "King" better then a Prince.  So she calls you her King anytime she things it might get extra applause or up her general popularity ratting by a percentage point or two.

But you are technically a Prinice Consort.  And more importantly if you got grabby hands when it comes to getting power and high and mighty, then it's good to sober you up to the reality as a "nipping the problem in the bud" strategy.

Would agree with a lot of what the other posters have said.   But I too would have liked more leeway, and would have liked that they had given you a more as far as role playing something more romantic and personally motivated.

I would add a few others.

1) I think the writting are setting up some kind of purposeful contrast between this relationship and the the official romances with your companions and perhaps even may not allow it so that those companion romances stand out more.

2) Simplicity of writing the story, game testing etc.

3) the "Low fantasy" schtick that bioware was trying out, I think necesitated a different kind of woman then a fairey tale typical princess that is rescued by Prince Charming and falls in love and lives happily ever after.


Thankfull there is fan fiction to handle these kinds of "What if" scenarios.

She's not that into you until the coronation.   At which time, she has the same exact girlish giggley thing as when she talks about her father being "a hero among the people".

But up until that time, yes you are mostly a ticket to the throne.   She however does appreciate your pedigree and achomplishments up until that point.

Whoa whoa... we can marry Anora and become "kingish"? I've never attempted this. How does one... go about being King?

You're not really becoming King, but King-Consort. This is only possible when you are Human Male Noble. Before the Landsmeet you can talk to Anora just like with every other character and just like other Origins can propose that she'd need a strong man at her side when she's Queen. Usually she dismisses it as tempting but impossible...when you're Noble, a Cousland, she accepts however. At the Landsmeet when you have to decide who gets the Crown, you can say something along the lines of "Anora, with me ruling beside her". Well, there you go :-)

Huzzah!

I was planning on doing the Whole Anora marrying thing, but it seems like there is no real advantage to it, since she is apparently a ****. Oh well.

Craig, don't be a dick. Saruman was just pointing out that posts not dealing with the topic can cause lockdown. Relax.

Saving her life wasn't enough reason for her to fall in love with you?!?! Sheesh... that used to be all a strapping hero had to do. I guess they want to talk about feelings and stuff now. 

[Addai]

Re. Anora's girlish giggle, she has the same stupid giggle for female players and it's quite possible she's giggling at you shortly after she tried to hang you from the rafters- literally. Sooo.... add meaning as you will, but it's not inherent in the game writing.

Not sure why people are enamored of the idea of marrying a woman who would see your head chopped off rather than take a risk you could unseat her, and who would turn on her own father if it suited her to do that, plus who hates sharing power so much.  Better have the wait staff sample your tea before you drink it.  I suppose it would add a certain spice to married life.  LOL
