But because the world wasn't destroyed, he didn't actually do that. The future never came to pass. That world never existed because you made it back. 

 

Again, you're killing him for something he didn't actually do.

Because Dorian and the Inquisitor stopped him

 

Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, I submit into evidence the following:  Magister Gereon Alexius cleaning the skull of a trainquil.

 

 

This is all that matters.  I don't care about what he might have/would have/could have done in  the future.  He was directly responsble for the deaths of countless (well, I guess we could count the skulls) tranquils.

 

That said, I am not saying he *must* be executed.  Just pointing out that  there is more than enough on him to have him join Dumat in eternal silence of that is what Inky wants to do.

 

You dare compare him to the awesomeness of the Predator

Personally I didn't kill him since he's a good resource(and I don't like wasting resources), but he has enough crimes and ground to be executed if someone wishes too.

Today I Learned that attempted murder is not a crime.

 

Oh wait, it is, how about that.

 

"Someone used force to stop me before I had the opportunity to carry through with my plan to kill thousands" is not a defense.

Because it's an RPG and you're the protagonist. That gives you the right to kill people who crossed you in any way.

And Commander Shepard! Renegade persuade with those looters in Mordin's recruitment mission.

His Venatori murdered Tranquil and used their skulls as magical spyglasses. 

 

Having his head chopped off was to kind.

He dared oppose my greatness. Glad the game let you personally take his head.

You know, I just got up to the part where you judge him on a new character. To quote Josephine:

 

"The formal charges are apostasy, attempted enslavement, and attempted assassination - on your own life, no less"

This and because medieval (or the equivalent in DA's case) period wasn't exactly known for the fairness of their judicial systems.

Aiding the Venatori is treason among Ferelden and Orlais. By both Ferelden and Orlesian law, treason is punishable by death.

 

If you can execute Mistress Poulin for aiding the Red Templars, then logically you should be allowed to execute Alexius for aiding and more importantly leading Venatori

[Almostfaceman]

It occurs to me that even though you have the option to kill Alexius, he largely didn't do anything that requires that strict of a penalty. 

 

He didn't actually bring about the future you see because you prevented it, and you already technically killed that timeline's Alexius as punishment. Killing the current Alexius is like double jeopardy. 

 

What actually happened is that fiona did a dumb thing and allied with tevinter, Alexius invited you to his castle, you killed his guards, and then you touched his amulet. Then he surrendered to you. 

 

Basically you're punishing him for the possibility of something happening in the future. Which is bullcrap. How would that hold up in a court of law? 

 

It's the haircut isn't it? We can kill him because of the haircut. 

 

Attempted murder, check.

 

Slave owner, check.

 

Enslaving other humans taking advantage of their desperation, check.

 

Carelessly ripping the fabric of time/space with magic with no regard for the welfare of others, check.

 

Forcing the Tranquil into the wilderness to fend for themselves and probably die of exposure, check. 

 

Yup, he deserves to die. 

[Semyaza82]

To me there seems a pretty big list:

1) Willingly working for the person/thing that murdered everyone at the conclave (including the Divine), with full knowledge of what Cory had done.

2) As an agent of a foreign power seized control of Ferelden territory and stronghold, forcing out the rightful ruler

3) Multiple murders of Tranquil 

4) Attempted enslavement of the mages 

5) Attempted murder of the Inquisitor (by a rather exotic method, but still essentially trying to kill them)

6) Very possibly blood magic (hard evidence in the possible future, so might not actually have been using it yet but wouldn't be a push to think he was)

7) Using crazy dangerous time magic he doesn't fully understand 

 

I normally recruit him anyway, but that's because I love me my agents (and/or I'm trying to get Dorian to like me). But his actions are pretty deserving of death.

Technically wouldn't be treason against Ferelden or Orlais - you have to be a subject of a nation to be guilty of treason against it. Still death worthy though
