I didn't see the mosaic for sacrifice--i never finished any of those. what does it say/look like? how does it play into the speculation?

And let's not forget that the main reason that remote colony exists is to explain ogres in the First Blight in a way that doesn't reveal the existence of the oxmen before the Qunari made their entrance, a retcon.

 

It can't be a retcon, that colony's existence was in the codex since DA origins. Which means the mysterious origins of the Qunari have been hinted at since the beginning, hence not a retcon.

 

The Qunari suddenly gaining horns in DA 2..........thats a retcon.

Thank you so much, Wedger for taking the time to post this! I was trying to google it, but all I was getting was how to find them not what the translation might be.

 

Huh, that's interesting. I wonder what "Grandma" was doing to that qunari. And why they would be embarrassed abt it? Tevinter's do not blush easily over sacrifices, and you think they would be showing off a qunari sacrifice.

 

Also sounds like it portrayed a time right before the magisters invaded the fade. The important enough to have a portrait ppl probably magister/s?

 

It's just odd that they would try to hide it.

 

Curiouser and curiouser.

It's nice to have some fresh mythology. I mean, they may have been building up to it all this time---if it does indeed go anywhere--but it's still nice.

Iron Bull said after defeating a dragon in the hinterlands, he felt it speaking to him. Maybe elven Gods were trying to combine, mix, create... with Dragon gods?It failed and thus qunari were born?

 

Probably Ghilan'nain, the elven god that made the halla. The Temple of Mythal says she was orignially not a "god", just someone who created "animals none had ever seen. The skies teemed with her monsters, the land with her beasts." One of the creatures she made was probably the qunari, done by mixing elves with dragons.

Man if this is the case the elven gods are messed up no wonder solas did what he did.

Well I think its fairly evident that Qunari are connected to dragons. Bull developed his reaver abilities naturally if you pick the reaver spec and the whole feeling like the dragon was speaking to him. 

 

Plus him stating Qunari have a thing for dragons hell cole has a funny conversation with Bull stating he should of called himself The iron dragon instead of the iron bull because his horns look similar to a high dragon. 

 

Well response was quite funny.

The plan was always for the Qunari to have horns, Sten only lacked them because they couldn't make it work with helmets before release.

 

Link to that codex please.

[leaguer of one]

Corypheus legit told the qunari the end boss equivalent of "your father never loved you."

 

Damn bruh

He said more then that.

No it's not. No where in the lore of dao stated if they had horns or not.

Yeah I recall bioware saying that they actually added hornless qunari to lore since sten was originally meant to have horns.

I just finished the draconology war table quest and something interesting was revealed. It said dragon's blood is resistant to the blight. So maybe, qunari were people bred to fight the first darkspawn? Assuming the darkspawn didn't come from the magisters entering the fade.

but what of the dragon thralls in dao?

[thesuperdarkone2]

but what of the dragon thralls in dao?

It says they're resistant, not immune. They were likely exposed to lots of taint.

Oh wow that's interesting. Thanks for sharing. I wonder if Qunari get special dialogue with Bull regarding dragons?

What's even wierder is qunari being around seven centuries before they landed on Par Vollen

[Violetbliss]

Do we know if they can well, have children with other races? Even if not, I was thinking, maybe they are the offspring of the Kossith and something else (elves?), and by the time Koslun showed up they had become more uniform in looks. Maybe it's too 'mundane' though. I haven't actually read anything about their mating habits beyond the Tamassrans of today's Thedas.

 

Not sure if it was linked prior and if so I apologize but there is also this codex entry - http://dragonage.wik...s_of_Par_Vollen

Who can say if that has anything to do with the Qunari, though.

Just going through, talked with Kieran as a Qunari and he said something odd. To paraphrase:

K: She didn't say you were Qunari.

I: Usually that's the first thing people notice about me.

K: I noticed your blood. It doesn't belong to your people.

Huh.

 

That's kind of interesting.

Solas too mentions to my Qunari - Tal-Vashoth that he respects him for his decisions 'cause only Qun and Koslun's teachings are keeping his people in check and their savage nature and as we know, our Inquisitor is not actually the one that was raised and lived by those rules . Also, I remember that hornless-born Qunari like our Sten (DAO) are actually very special among their people. From Bull's talk about Kossith I gathered that something bad happened in the ancient times, some kind of hubris I presume... They did something wrong, dark and therefore got their people divide.

Well, if at some point they got blood-drunk on dragons, to the point where it physically changed them, maybe they gained a dragon's apex predator attitude and viciousness?

You know, I remember a codex entry someone posted on these boards, it was one of those things that gets translated if you drink from the well.

It mentions Gilhanain (sp) convincing a mortal to "take wing" and the other gods condemn him for wrongfully imitating "divine" form. I wondered if this could have somethig to do with the Qunari.
