I notice some people have no love for the Couslands. Why? The reason I ask,is because the up coming story line with the guy who seem to be related to the Howes.

The majority in Ferelden thought Bryce should be king. The Couslands were a popular and powerful family. This new Howe guy seems so infatuated with Rendon that he can't imgagine him killing the Couslands without a reason.

I would say it's a very tiny amount of people who actively hate the Couslands.

The Couslands were second in line to the throne. Rendon Howe...was a greedy s.o.b. hehe

Thanks ladys and gents. I was starting think maybe I missed something during my HN play through.

I know Bryce visited Orlais in all, but I never got the feeling he was conspiring against Ferelden.

Thanks for noticing the name Supadru.

I didn't know that anyone actively disliked them. They appear to be a very honorable family, so...no idea. Oh, and I don't think there's any question that the Couslands were staunch royalists. Unlike the Howes, they never collaborated with the Orleisian occupation.

If the guy won't end up like Zevran, with a silly EXCESSIVE British accent, and he won't say anything that will make me at least smile in the first recruit-like dialogue, he's meat for dogs...

Hmm?

More then likely, judging by the way the new guy is acting, he was out of the country for most of Origins.

If you were away from your family, and heard your uncle, a man who you trusted, loved, and believed in fully was killed by a group that was well known for being Orlesian Sympathizers, and upon coming back learned only that he killed another family, wouldn't you also view that as an "political excuse" to get rid of a man who hated Orlesians?

It honestly doesn't sound as if he has any idea what the hell happened, other then the fact that a man he cared deeply for, and knew hated Orlesians was killed by Orlesian Sympathizers in a political move, why should he be a caring and understanding man about the whole situation, your going to have to tell him what happened, and override his natural love of his father/uncle.

Or maybe all those years of my dad telling me to look at things objectivily, and my mother telling me to look at things from a political view have caused me to stop looking at things from a normal perspective, and I see a very powerful ally once I get him under control here, rather then a threat or an idiot.

Of course if your human noble origin GW then the situation would be alot more complex and less involving of Orlesians. I doubt he could have learned anything about what happened and not find out that the Warden that killed Renddon was a cousland

Zevran's accent is Italian, not British.

You are right Default137. I am going to have to convince him, that Renden was a cold blooded Murderer. That's not going to be easy. But I expect the new Howe guy have to have heard that Renden was not a up standing citizen, and just does not want to believe it. Even among the Nobles Rendon Howe was a snake.

I just the penny comic again. I guess he's coming the Grey Warden Commander. So if you playing as a HN, that's icing on the cake. I can't wait to see how this plays out.

Exactly. Britain has a wide variety of accents but Zevran's is not one of them.

Fereldan nobles tend to sound like upper-class British people so I'd guess that Nathaniel Howe will sound somewhat similar to Alistair.

Hmmm... He doesn't sound like many Spanish people I know (and I know several) but one thing is for sure; it's a Mediterranean accent and NOT British.

Indeed from Spain, although I do know Mexicans, Argentinians, Chileans, Peruvians, Ecuadorians etc too (my wife is Mexican and living in the UK we have Spanish speaking friends from many places.) I'm not saying that you are wrong though.

There isn't a great difference between the way Italians and Spaniards pronounce vowel sounds which is what makes most of the difference in accents when speaking English. I guess the lack of pronouncing the letter H at the beginning of words like a Spanish J is what made me think of Italian. He doesn't really have the sing-song Italian sound so you are probably right.

I guess the other thing that makes people think of him as Italian is his stereotypically lecherous attitude and the fact that the crows seem pretty similar to the mafia...

yeah, it also comes down to what region of Spain they are from. I am originally from Madrid, but I have lived in new jersey for over 10 years now. I never had that type of accent, it is more common from Andalucia, Murcia,  and the southern parts; so technically, you are right bout the mediterranian accent. haha
