Hey, when I try to post in the Spoilers Section, it says I don't meet the requirements, because I haven't registered Dragon Age Awakenings. However, when I try to register Dragon Age Awakenings or Dragon Age Origins, it says the code is invalid. It's on my box damnit, no it ain't!

Anyway, I've a question about Mhairi.. So.. Spoilers! Hopefully someone moves it.






























Does Mhairi always die in the Joining? What's up with that? Why did they pump her up as a new companion, with a trailer and everything, and then just kill her off? Anyone know if you can save her?

Mhairi is in a few previews, and it almost seems like shes apart of the game later on. Was her death last minute?

Quite the opposite, actually. Mhairi was never intended to be a full companion, and for a while she was just "Lady Redshirt", the warrior that accompanied you briefly to make sure you had some help at the very beginning of the game. Later we filled her out with a bit more personality and obfuscated the fact that she was intended to die in the Joining -- why? Because if we hadn't there would have been just as many people going "Oh, I KNEW she was intended to die all along! How lame!"

Her voice actress did a great job, though. I wouldn't have minded seeing her as a full companion. That said, we promised you six companions and that's what you got -- she's the "seventh" as well as the odd man out, so to speak. Sorry some people were disappointed, but it's nice to see they were surprised.
