Can we import a character who died? I mean even if our Warden did die he/she still makes decisions which have impacted the world of Dragon Age. Does that carry over?

yes you can and no your world state doesn't carry over..but there is a 30 page thread on this issue already..."playing a dead warden is BS"

Oh, must've missed the thread. I've been so busy with Mass Effect 2 that I almost forgot that an expansion pack is coming out for Dragon Age pretty soon.

This is a bit misleading -- you can import a dead character inexplicably brought back to life, in which case your worldstate (other than your character's death) does carry over.
You cannot play as the Orlesian warden in a world shaped by your sacrificed character's choices.
However, Bioware has recently gone dead silent on this question (it was ignored in Victor Wachter's recent Q&A), so there is a tiny possibility that they are working on a last minute fix.

You know what, I think I'm just going to play as the Orlesian Gray Warden. The Ultimate Sacrifice ending was the best ending by far and the Morrigan ritual doesn't fit in with my Warden's personality as the epitome of good and selflessness.
So the only choice I have carrying over other than the ritual is to have Alistair die which I wouldn't want to do because Alistair is my favorite character and I agree that Loghain had to die.
So yeah, my Grey Warden will live on through the memory of his ultimate sacrifice and the story will be picked up by the new Orlesian Warden.

The default backstory for the Orlesian warden may or may not include an ultimate sacrifice to destroy the Archdemon -- this seems logical but has not been confirmed.
However, as of the last word from Bioware before they went silent, this will not be your character's ultimate sacrifice. No information about a dead warden's game -- including their name, whether they killed or spared Loghain, who they made ruler of Ferelden -- will be reflected in Awakening. If your choices happen to match whatever defaults are being chosen, well, lucky you.

i think BioWare just got lazy with the whole "Ultimate Sacrifice" issue. I also think that it's pretty much a big middle finger at the gamers who don't want to bring the Warden back for whatever reason.

Can someone tell me one thing ? If I import my Dragon Age Origins character who died in the Ultimate Sacrifice into Awakening, does the choices made in Dragon Age Origins impact on the world of Awakening ?

Your choices, all except that certain last one, will still affect the world in what capacity they otherwise would. The US itself will be retconned, however.

Is there absolutely no way to mod the game in such a way it kind of runs smoothly? (Start with an Orlesian etc., but get the imported choices). Not I figure? Else someone would've started on that project by now I guess.

I think someone would have to implement a new interface, similar to the one at the beginning of DA2, to be able to play an Orlesian with the Ultimate Sacrifice decisions.

I just finished dragon age for the first time and sacrificed myself , started awakening importing my poor 'dead' faren and he is miraculously alive ... this feel very very stupid! I expected the world to react to my death and maybe pass over my skillset to a new character ... definatly not going to play awakening as my dead warden, It looks like poor alistair will have to die after all despite my 2 minute think when posed with the 6 answers at the end.

If you import a Dead Warden into Awakening it defaults to you did the Dark Ritual with Morrigan instead.
If you want to keep your Wardens actions intact and dead you have to import into Dragon age 2 from origins and cant play Awakening, or the DLC.
Theres a consequance to choosing to kill your character, much like in ME where if Shepard dies you dont even get the option to import that game.
Alistair or Loghain has to do the final sacrifice or the Dark Ritual is done by one of you are you only options.
I really dont suggest killing Alistair though...I wont spoil it but you learn why in the novels his bloodline is so important.
I actualy suggest Hardend Alistair in the Throne married to Queen Anora and Loghain spared and Recruit to the Grey Wardens and Morrigans Dark Ritual done. As the best option to preserve all the important characters.

I'm surprised there isn't a mod for you PC gamers where you import the dead Origin character's decisions, but the character is an Orlesian.

There is but it dosnt work...
The save game editor can let you set practicaly any flags you want to create a custom save file.
Unfortunetly this still wont allow the sacrifice to happen and play a orlesian warden, you can just make a save for import into DA2 that the equivilent.
I kinda dont agree with it though, the dragon age universe really dosnt want your Warden dead so it can properly write and adjust things for DA3, 4, 5 and on etc. Bioware has already taken the stance in ME2. Dead protagonist stay dead and cant continue their storys.
I really HIGHLY suggest either reading or audio booking the novels and other media for Dragon Age. The Stolen throne and the calling will shed light on alot of events in DA and help make certain deicisions easier or harder. (Also why its a good idea to spare Lohgain and put Alistair on the Throne.)

I have read them both. Now while I can see why Loghain's backstory, I view his actions in the actual story as too much. Personal opinion, I know, hence why I'm not to rabid over it.Last Darkness wrote...

I don't see why Alistair has to be on the throne. It's not like Therin blood is magic or something, like some JRPG from the 90's. He's just a man, who happens to be the son of a man who happened to be King.

Really? you may want to rethink that stance knowing how Gaider set it up.
