Has anyone else considered the possibility that Solas doesn't like if the Inquisitor lets the Wardens stay because he shares his soul with one of the high dragons and therefore may lose his immortality (and be defeated, should he be the villain or one of the main villains in DA 4) should all the Archdemons eventually be slain?

 

If this were true, if each Evanuris became immortal by sharing his/her soul with a creature as difficult to kill as a dragon, in order to ensure no one could kill it, then they can be defeated.

 

Could that be part of Solas' plan? Or will he appeal to something similar to Morrigan's Dark Ritual, to preserve the piece of soul within the dragon?

What interests me about the immortal priests using the blight to control blighted people/darkspawn/wardens is whether or not that leash can be pulled in both directions. Can a sufficiently willed Warden influence Corypheus/et al?

 

I doubt a warden could influence Corypheus or darkspawn.Although you never know...

I think wardens never get the full power of the Blight , because their bodies is resisting the Taint (Joining), and once the body fail this , they start hearing the Song , and end up a ghoul.

Corypheus  got all the benefits , (well except for looking ugly and evil) and none of the drawbacks , his body isn't rotting , it's substained by the Blight , and it doesn't loose his mind to the old God Song.

 

The only warden who was onto something was Avernus ,he did manage to live longer using the Blight , and I think he was drawn to the Golden City and not the Old Gods...for some bizarre reason.I can't remember the details.

Honestly Avernus is one of my favourite characters. His experiments were monstrous but when put to work ethically he still delivers.

I'm glad someone else broght this up. It has always bothered me. Considering the power he holds over darkspawn, which we learned about all the way back in DA2 Legacy, you'd think they would have been a part of his army. The Venatori, Red Templars, and The Darkspawn Horde would have been quite the army. Definitely weird this was never addressed, because Corypheus clearly holds sway over Darkspawn. Oversight on Bioware's part, perhaps??

 

Maybe Corypheus is aware that having a darkspawn horder around the surface would raise a lot more trouble than his tiny groups of Wardens, Venatori and Red Templars did.
