No offense to all of you guys/gals that are angry at the choice import issue. I felt the same way, but there's an explanation if you're willing to give it some thought and use your imagination. It's perfectly plausible too.

The night when Morrigan offers the dark pact, you say "no" for whatever reason and she leaves. Wrong, you think she leaves. What actually happened is she snuck into Riordan's room and considering he'd been locked up in a prison for who knows how long (I can't remember how long) she was able to seduce him fairly easily. With the "dark pact" complete, unknowingly to the rest of us, we end up going through the rest of DA:O (she didn't bother trying to explain her motives to Riordan after failing with us). The twist is in the end we manage to survive.

If you want to stretch it further, just assume that everyone thought you were dead because the killing blow put you out hard. However, you miraculously survived and came back to life after the ending credits. Awakened from a coma or something along those lines....thrown into the fade but cleverly found your way back to reality once again.

So here you are, ready to roll and since you need to command the new Grey Wardens you have to put the reason for your survival behind you--for now. Perhaps it's a mystery that will not be solved in your life time, or ever.

Just give it some thought...and give the game a chance. The story really picks up once you get over the nitpicking (which I've done myself).



Er... no! This couldn't have happened. Morrigan wouldn't sleep with Riordan. You know why?

If you play a female who is in romance with Alistair you can suggest to Morrigan to sleep with Riordan instead. But she says she can't do that because Riordan was tainted for too long.

Not to spin up a dead thread, but I am late at getting to the tail end replies here. I did not know that about Morrigan and the length of time being a warden. Thanks for the replies!

Well I think that Morrigan asking for the ritual was a way to ask for a freely given soul to be used instead of just an aquired soul to use. Either way she will have her way an have a baby. She can shape change into another human BUT she says that she sees no reason to do this because she is a human. But... if she has a reason like shape shifting into a female like your PC to get to sleep with Alistair then so be it or she could shape shift into Leliana to sleep with your male PC or just do it with you anyway if she is your LI. I don't think you can die because every ending she is with child. Even the other main charctersboth good and bad will hint that you are being watched and are special.

It doesn't matter if Riordan did the ritual with Morrigan or not. He's long dead by the time the archdemon dies.


He had to impregnate her, he didn't have to be alive or deal the final blow. As long as the Archdemon dies, Morrigan gets her baby.

Yes, she says Riordan is too old, but it's probably a long shot she doesn't want to deal with, not UNPOSSIBLE. So if you refuse her, I could buy it.

It's not rocket science. It's lolmagic and thus easily explainable.

That said, they don't have to explain jack. It's their story and if you don't like it, don't play it.

I don't want nor need to use my imagination, I want an experience that justifies my 30 euro.

No explanation means no purchase for me.

Edit: Wait a minute, I've been in this topic before... Woah... I guess Caliban explanation is the best I've heard so far.
