So... you like... that?

 

What do you mean by "that"? Do you mean Samson? Since there's almost 50 pages of discussions here, yeah you could say that.

 

He's an interesting character: someone who's rage was fueled by both hate and compassion, who's drive to help ultimately hurts the person he's helping and himself in the process, and couldn't even get his templars a "good death" by going out in a blaze of glory. The Inquisition and the Chantry still stand, while his Templars do not. It's a beautifully tragic story.

 

Is there something in particular you wanted to discuss?

He.. looks.. like he smoke... to much... marijuana

He smokes elfroot to take the edge off. It's a stressful trying to burn the world to the ground

Yep, it's a pretty bad case of necromancy, no doubt about it. You forgot about Anders, too. He can be killed at the end of Awakening, but says he faked it in DA2: 

 

 

Leliana we actually watch die, but I'm sure Samson's "death" can be explained away just like Anders' since we never actually see Samson's dead body. Not saying that's a good thing, but there it is.

 

Did Cullen mention that were they going to execute Samson or was he already killed? A few words can make a huge difference.

He never mentions Samson yet he says that the corpses of the conspirators were hung around the gallows as warnings to anyone who dares defy Meredith if you say to kill them.

[Tigrae]

Yeah, I mean unless we can see Samson's corpse, it's conjecture that he's dead. Like I said earlier, he could just be in the dungeons awaiting execution until the Chantry explosion and Samson escapes in the chaos. We see Leliana die, but we don't see Anders or Samson die.

Ok everyone, if Samson makes an appearance in Trespasser, what would you hope has happened to him in the two years since getting rid of Corypheus?

Taken by the Red.

He'll become a romance option. (Put that in fanfic!)

[Tigrae]

Realistically: We're not gonna hear anything about him, or we'll get a codex entry about him dying from the red or the blight in a prison cell, alone (and I will cry).

 

Would be great: He's alive and walking around Skyhold. Maybe he's hanging out with Dagna, or Cullen, or hanging out in the Herald's Rest, or the courtyard, or training troops, or hanging out with the Chargers.

 

Would be even better: Warden Samson.

 

Would be the best ever, but I know won't happen: Samson is a companion that we can talk with and take out for missions.

[SmilesJA]

I'll cry too!

Chants *warden Samson, warden Samson*

[topekaguy]

He had to do some bad things for DAT LYRIUM back in Kirkwall... CALL ME HOF @ da place

[Bugsie]

You know even if Samson can't be saved by something like the joining it might help other red Templars who's corruption isn't complete. The joining is a mix of the taint, blood from an archdemon and Magic, and red lyrium is lyrium affected by the taint so...

[thesuperdarkone2]

Since we are apparently getting calpernia's armor in tresspasser, think we'll get a version of samson's armor?

We get his sword, Certainty, but with what he said about putting on the armor feeling like he was on fire, I dunno if anyone would want to wear his armor.

 

Maybe Dagna could make a blue lyrium version if you choose to have him studied by her during his judgment? I mean, either way, lyrium isn't good for anyone to be in contact with, and Calpernia's armor is just leather.

BUGSIE. The wardens could refill their ranks with ex-red templars already surviving the corruption. I mean, not all of them might survive the joining but maybe their exposure to red lyrium increases their chances? We know the wardens want good fighters, and templars are trained fighters.

 

We also have five ex-templars joining the wardens in Last Flight...

 

What if Warden Samson becomes Warden-Commander Samson and gets all his Templars in and they are their own squadron of Red Wardens or something.

 

WHAT IF. WHAT IIIIFFFF.

[SmilesJA]

I don't know about Warden Samson, but considering that he's technically tainted. In theory the joining should keep the taint in check.

[Tigrae]

 

I couldn't stop thinking about it, so I made a little photo edit.

[SmilesJA]

Nice.

So I was browsing Dragon Age Confessions blog, and saw this confession someone made in August 2013:

 

 

( here is the link: http://dragonageconf...sh-on-samson-i)

 

"Helping him back into the Templar order... straigtened out his life..." sigh... :'(

[Tigrae]

W E L P. We certainly learned more about him, hahah!

 

(My Hawke put him back in hoping he'd be her "inside man", that he could get out even more mages once he was back in the Gallows. Oh man.)

[SmilesJA]

Thanks us! We're the ones who made Samson this way! 

[ModernAcademic]

And... there was no Samson in Trespasser.

 

/pout
