Is that a game bug then when your introduced by Alistair as the new queen? oh I am so confused *drinks more tea and reaches for the pixie sticks*
:blink:


No, it's not a bug. If you marry Alistair (King) you are considered his Queen (Consort not Regent). Princess-Consort is a less formal reference to the same title, Queen-Consort just being more formal.

i just wish that the choices i made mattered as i sat really thinking about them and chose the best possible choices for my female human noble and it just seems like its all in vein which is hugely dissapointing as the dao was supposed to be a choices and there consuquences franchise but everything seems to be exactly the opposit which to me seems a bit stupid i created my warden gave her a look that i'm fairly happy with developed her character and personality the way i wanted her to be and now its all been waved so to speak its frustrating more than anything


BTW shedevil3001- I really like your new Avatar. 

I agree with your statement and this is what is frustrating me to no end. With my HNF Cousland, I feel as if the end of Origins is just the beginning of a new life for her as Alistair's Queen and ruling Ferelden. I was really looking forward to seeing that part of my story unfold in Awakening but now who knows what will happen with our endings. I am cautiously optimistic that Bioware will indeed keep our storyline in Awakening, perhaps more evident/interactive  at the beginning and toward the end of the game. We shall see.

doubtful by the way things are sounding i think we can kiss goodbye to our story continuing with our romance ending i think they are leaning more towards people playing as an orlesian gw and starting over

The Couslands would make more sense in connection with a "canon" ending..as they are supposed to be one of the oldest ruling families and second in line to the throne.



Where Anora "thinks" she gets off at I don't know. Her father was a farmer's son ..that would mean she is the granddaughter of a farmer and has no other status than that, truth be told.



It is glaringly obvious that she quite possibly married Cailan for the status and nothing more. I don't remember any references to grieving or being officially in mourning for the loss of her King and husband.



So I don't even think Anora would be part of the "canon" ending to be honest.

I could not stomach Anora the moment I first saw her. To me, she is the epitome of an insecure, manipulative, attention craving, controlling women. I agree, she does not seem to be mourning her husband in any way, I say execute her and quickly.

Why do you think that? Have you read something specifically saying if you married Ali and became Queen that it would not be recognized?

Agreed, I saw her as conniving and manipulative...Arl Eamon stated that Cailan didn't have a chance to resist her, soon as she batted her eyelashes at him..he basically became putty in her hands.

While she absolutely was manipulative, attention craving and controlling, she did actually care about Cailan and mourn his loss. You may not have actually gotten that during your conversations with her, but its true. It was the one thing about her that made me even slightly sympathetic to Anora.

There was no indication of official mourning..in that story that I saw.   I'm on my 13th run-through..can you point out where she's actually acting as if Cailan's death is a bad thing?   Other than that one brief episode in front of Howe, when she asks her father if he actually did kill Cailan?

I don't think she did care, because she talks about how she was the better choice for ruling..and talked kind of condescendingly about Cailan..every chance she got.

She speaks quite fondly of him during the personal chat with her in Eamon's estate in Denerim. At least if you're playing the Male Human Noble and pick the right conversational paths. Also her main objection to marrying Alistair is that he has the face of the man she loved. Its also why you're able to convince Anora that her father needs to see juctice. And of course its in the episode you mention.

But these conversations vary quite a bit depending on who you are playing, what options you took dealing with Anora prior to that point, and which conversation options you take. My wife's dealings with Anora played out so wildly different than mine you'd have thought we were talking about two entirely different characters.

Why don’t my DLC items carry forward?
We are currently investigating solutions for a possible patch.



Thanks for answering the question.   The likelihood of my purchasing the expansion has upgraded to "conditional."

That was the only mention of her husbands death (that sounded mournful) and I have no sympathy for her all. I'm sure Cailan eventually got sick of her as well, that's why he was looking elsewhere for love and affection. She is very self absorbed and egotistical; she and her dear father wanted the throne to themselves all along. I could not get rid of her quickly enough.

I agree, that is my biggest complaint. There are no long hairstyles. Most women during the Medieval time period had very long, flowing hair (kept up at time). We need more long hairstyles.

How many new mage spells will there be?
There are 2 new specializations and 2 new spell trees for all mages for a total of 16 new spells. We will update the FAQ to correct this information.


Has this actually been explained yet because its still not completely clear (which is the whole point of the FAQ I imagine).

2 New Specializations, with 4 new spells each...okay I get that bit. Thats 8 spells.

Now, when you say 2 new spell trees, do you mean spell tree as in:

ie. Flame Blast - Flaming Weapons - Fireball - Inferno

...which to me is a 'chain' rather than a 'tree' since it has no 'branches'.

Or do you mean spell tree as in the whole Primal Spell Tree?

Or (since there have been reports on this) do we get an additional 5th link to all the existing spell chains (other than specializations).

ie. Flame Blast - Flaming Weapons - Fireball - Inferno - NEW SPELL IN AWAKENING
