I gotta ask: Can you strip your companion of their amors? Because Bethany could do with a stripping.

Change your companions' armour? Manually?!

My dear fellow, you need to get with the times. You're never going to survive in the modern world of evolved RPGs if you continue to think a game should have that sort of player control.

...nah. I believe some of the outfits alter visibly at given plot points. And you can buy 'upgrades' and so on. But that's it.

I'm using IE9 and can view the images.

I see you're going full out with Anders...thanks for braving what it may befall to save us the indignity of going through them ourselves.

looks like that gay warden joke was not a joke at all

Anders is such a bland character, too bad because you almost have to get him because of healing

Your shepperd is not extreme at all, and why isn't he black

It is uploaded to Imageshack which for some reason banned rpgcodex... I suppose.

PART 5 - SEX SAILS

So let's steer this LP on a more, mmm, straight path. First, we need to visit Varric for a session of Q&A.

da2lp08-00.jpg


Who's here...

da2lp08-01.jpg

mcvew3.png



face-lucky.jpg
You owe us, Isabela.
face-isabela.jpg
Well, Lucky, I'll tell you what...
face-isabela.jpg
Since the information you gave me was worth nothing...
face-isabela.jpg
... that's what I'll pay you.
face-lucky.jpg
Me and my boys will get our money's worth, bitch.
face-isabela.jpg
Oh, you poor, sweet thing.


Wanna interrupt my drinking?
da2lp08-02.jpg


I have boobs of steel!
da2lp08-03.jpg

da2lp08-04.jpg


The other goon tries to grab her, but it's not an easy task.
da2lp08-05.jpg


Critical failure!
da2lp08-06.jpg

da2lp08-07.jpg


And the boobs win.

da2lp08-08.jpg

da2lp08-09.jpg


face-isabela.jpg
Tell me, Lucky, is this worth dying for?
face-isabela.jpg
Chuckles I didn't think so.


da2lp08-10.jpg


We can level up Anders now. I grant him the old favorite from DA - Crushing Prison.

da2lp08-11.jpg


Let's see her closer.

da2lp08-12.jpg


face-isabela.jpg
My, and here I thought the only men in this place were besotted fools who couldn't hoist the mainsail.
face-hawke8.jpg
You haven't met me.
face-isabela.jpg
Mmm, yes... though I'd like to.
face-isabela.jpg
I'm Isabela. Previously "Captain" Isabela. Sadly, without my ship, the title rings a bit hollow.


da2lp08-13.jpg


Yeah, so the chick have just owned three armed dudes with her bare hands, and now she bows in front of some guy she never met before. Instant gratification at its finest. :M

face-isabela.jpg
You're Fereldan, aren't you? You have that look about you. I was in Denerim not too long ago.
face-isabela.jpg
I even met the Hero of Ferelden, if you know what I mean.
face-isabela.jpg
You know, you might be just what I'm looking for to solve a little problem I have.
face-hawke8.jpg
Solve your own problems.
face-isabela.jpg
You haven't even heard me out. There's excitement to be had -- or coin, if excitement isn't your thing.
face-isabela.jpg
Someone from my past has been pestering me. I've arranged for a duel -- if I win, he leaves me alone.
face-isabela.jpg
But I don't trust him to play fair. I need someone to watch my back.
face-hawke8.jpg
I think I could manage watching your back. :smug:
face-isabela.jpg
Chuckles I'll bet.
face-isabela.jpg
I've arranged to meet Hayder in Hightown after dark. I'll meet you there.


Hayder? Lolz.

da2lp08-14.jpg


face-aveline.jpg
I hear good things about you, Anders. Not what I expected.
face-anders.jpg
From a mage, you mean.
face-aveline.jpg
I didn't say that.
face-anders.jpg
How else would you judge me? What else am I a shining example of?
face-aveline.jpg
I don't know... other Fereldans lurking in Darktown? Mage or not.
face-anders.jpg
You... have a fair point.


We've yet to talk to Varric.

da2lp08-15.jpg


Ha, it seems that size matters even for midgets.

da2lp08-16.jpg


face-varric.jpg
So, I've been dying to know: what was going through your head when you fought that ogre?
face-hawke8.jpg
I barely noticed what it was. It stood in my way, so I killed it.
face-varric.jpg
If I said that, I'd be full of shit. When you say it, I almost believe it.
face-varric.jpg
Somehow, Hawke, I imagine things won't be dull with you around.
face-varric.jpg
Not that I expect the Deep Roads to be boring, mind you. Constant threat of doom does tend to keep you awake.
face-hawke8.jpg
What about you? Been in any good battles?
face-varric.jpg
Does arguing with Bartrand count?
face-varric.jpg
I've spent my whole life in Kirkwall. Dangerous enough, most days, but it doesn't compare to the Deep Roads.
face-varric.jpg
So, this will be... let's just call it "an adventure," I guess.
face-hawke8.jpg
Great, now we're adventurers...
Varric rivalry +15


He dislikes hard-on approach.

OK, we have to help miss Melons.

da2lp08-17.jpg

da2lp08-18.jpg


There is a bounty notification on the wall. More cash never hurts.

da2lp08-19.jpg

da2lp08-20.jpg


Even Hightown streets aren't safe: guard present roam there freely. Aveline does shitty job, to tell the truth.

da2lp08-21.jpg

da2lp08-22.jpg


And here she is.
da2lp08-23.jpg


face-isabela.jpg
There you are.
face-isabela.jpg
I've been here for hours. Hayder hasn't shown up. No one has. I don't like this.
face-varric.jpg
"I don't like this"? That's right up there with, "What could possibly go wrong?"
face-ambusher.jpg
That's the wench we're looking for. Gut her!


We clear the ambush.

da2lp08-24.jpg


Thatkfully tits are invulnerable, because to be fair she is a scrappy fighter.
da2lp08-25.jpg


OK, here we go.
da2lp08-26.jpg

da2lp08-27.jpg


More goons are waiting us at the Chantry entrance.
da2lp08-28.jpg


da2lp08-29.jpg

da2lp08-30.jpg


face-hayder.jpg
Isabela. Should've known you'd find me here.
face-isabela.jpg
Tell your men to burn the letters next time.
face-hayder.jpg
Castillon was heartbroken when he heard about the shipwreck. You should've let him know you survived.
face-isabela.jpg
It must have slipped my mind.
face-hayder.jpg
Chuckles Where's the relic?
face-isabela.jpg
I lost it. Castillon's just going to have to do without.
face-hayder.jpg
Lost it? Just like you "lost" a ship full of valuable cargo?
face-isabela.jpg
They weren't cargo, Hayder, they were people!
face-hayder.jpg
Those slaves were worth a hundred sovereigns a head, and you let them scurry off into the wild.
face-hayder.jpg
And now the relic's gone, too. Castillon won't be happy to hear that, I promise you.
face-hawke8.jpg
Your threats end here.


da2lp08-31.jpg

da2lp08-32.jpg

da2lp08-33.jpg

da2lp08-34.jpg


Critical hit. If only in-game weapons were half as good. :roll:

da2lp08-35.jpg

da2lp08-36.jpg


Gaydurr is down. I like how mannequins smile even covered with blood, like nothing've ever happened.

da2lp08-37.jpg


face-isabela.jpg
Should've done that a long time ago.
face-isabela.jpg
Castillon won't hear about me from Hayder, but he'll find me eventually.
face-isabela.jpg
I just have to get him the relic. It's simple as that.
face-hawke8.jpg
If getting the relic gets Castillon off your back, then I'll help you retrieve it.
face-isabela.jpg
I still don't know where it is, but you'll be the first to know if I hear anything.
face-isabela.jpg
Anyway, thanks for helping me out with Hayder.
face-isabela.jpg
I think I'll tag along for a while. There might be something I could do for you.
face-isabela.jpg
And I have a room at the Hanged Man, if you're looking for... company later.


Let's find her room. :smug:

da2lp08-38.jpg


OK, one hell of an ugly bitch requests Hawke's assistance as well.

da2lp08-39.jpg


face-suspiciouslady.jpg
The Fereldan, eh?
face-suspiciouslady.jpg
Athenril said you might help me.
face-suspiciouslady.jpg
Some raider captains are having secret meetings at night in Lowtown.
face-suspiciouslady.jpg
The job's simple: break up the meeting and kill every one of the bastards.
face-hawke8.jpg
Just tell me where they are.
face-suspiciouslady.jpg
All the details are in this letter.
face-suspiciouslady.jpg
If you manage to eavesdrop on the meeting before you kill them, there's be extra in it for you.
face-suspiciouslady.jpg
I'll be here.


Heh, dat ass is too busy drinking to notice me.

da2lp08-40.jpg


face-isabela.jpg
Maker... I think he's ignoring me now.

da2lp08-41.jpg


face-isabela.jpg
Hey! Is my coin not good enough for you?
face-isabela.jpg
Oh? Hawke! Thanks for helping me with that little problem I had.
face-isabela.jpg
You going to buy me a drink to celebrate our victory?
face-hawke8.jpg
Buy yourself a drink.
face-isabela.jpg
Well, if you're going to be that way...
face-isabela.jpg
Oh! Before I forget: You still looking for work? Because I have a friend who needs some help.


Hawke will play along for a while.

face-hawke8.jpg
A friend of yours is a friend of mine. What can I do?

face-isabela.jpg
He didn't say, and I didn't ask, but I'm sure you're up to it.
face-isabela.jpg
His name's Martin. He has a room right here in the Hanged Man. Tell him I sent you.
face-isabela.jpg
Now, you going to leave me to my drinking or what?
Isabela friendship +10


Companions like this staircase for some reason.

da2lp08-42.jpg


face-anders.jpg
I've always wondered, why is every surface dwarf a merchant or a smith?
face-varric.jpg
You left out criminals and hired muscle.
face-anders.jpg
They don't count.
face-varric.jpg
We dwarves are drawn to shiny objects. Sort of like magpies, but with business sense.
face-anders.jpg
You're kidding.
face-varric.jpg
Of course I am. We come to the surface with the skills our ancestors had, Blondie.
face-varric.jpg
You think there's a tradition of dwarf woodcutters in Orzammar? Bee keepers? Sailors?
face-anders.jpg
Well, there could be mushroom growers and nug wranglers.
face-varric.jpg
Orzammar will never let those people go topside. Too vital. Also, embarassing.


This Martin has a huge scar on his neck. Shady fellow.
da2lp08-43.jpg


face-martin.jpg
So you've found me. Going to finish Martin off properly this time, are you?
face-martin.jpg
Where's my property, huh? How's it feel making a profit off someone else's hard work?
face-hawke8.jpg
Flinging accusations around blindly is a sure way to get yourself killed.
face-martin.jpg
What is this? You looking out for me now?
face-martin.jpg
Wait -- I get it. You're not a raider. Raiders don't talk, they just do the deed, and leave.
face-martin.jpg
This could turn out well for both of us. If you're not here to end me, maybe you could help me instead.
face-martin.jpg
I need someone to help me find out where the raiders have hidden my stolen cargo.
face-martin.jpg
This job's as easy as peg-legged tavern wench, and there's good coin in it to boot.
face-hawke8.jpg
I'll take care of it.
face-martin.jpg
You'll need to look around the docks. The crates bear the seal of the Orlesian port authority, so you'll know it when you see it.
face-hawke8.jpg
Just make sure you have my reward.
face-martin.jpg
The coin will be here.
face-martin.jpg
I've had it with the raiders, and this cargo is the key to me getting on the straight and narrow.
face-martin.jpg
You're doing me a huge favor here, friend. Thank you, and be careful.


So, the docks.

da2lp08-44.jpg

da2lp08-45.jpg


face-bethany.jpg
Are you really not afraid of apostates? Not even a little?
face-varric.jpg
Sunshine, I'm a dwarf, in case you missed that detail.
face-bethany.jpg
Dwarves aren't completely immune to magic, you know.
face-varric.jpg
No, no, no! I meant there are at least thirty people in this town who'd murder my family over trade deals.
face-varric.jpg
Who has the time to worry about apostates with a Merchants Guild breathing down your neck?
face-bethany.jpg
In that case... I see.


da2lp08-46.jpg


face-hawke8.jpg
I'm looking for some cargo.
face-longshoreman1.jpg
You're in luck! Cargo all around. Take your pick.
face-hawke8.jpg
They don't pay you to be funny.
face-hawke8.jpg
I'm looking for crates sealed by the Orlesian port authority.
face-longshoreman1.jpg
Haven't seen any. Sorry.
face-longshoreman2.jpg
Talk to the harbor master.
face-longshoreman2.jpg
I'll bet he's got information about your cargo. He's in his office.


More pointless jogging. :fu:

da2lp08-47.jpg


face-liam.jpg
Shipping manifest?
face-hawke8.jpg
Speak sense, man!
face-liam.jpg
The shipping manifest -- for your ship. Have to know what cargo's coming through Kirkwall.
face-liam.jpg
Viscount's rules, not mine.
face-hawke8.jpg
I need information, and you're going to give it to me.
face-liam.jpg
No need to get tetchy. Talk to Aden. He'll answer your questions.
face-aden.jpg
I apologize on Liam's behalf. He is a very, very busy man.
face-aden.jpg
I'm Aden, the harbor master's assistant. I understand you're looking for Orlesian cargo.
face-aden.jpg
I've seen the crates, but I can't remember where. Such a shame.
face-hawke8.jpg
You're wasting my time!
face-aden.jpg
Now, don't be pessimistic.
face-aden.jpg
The clink of gold coin often jogs my memory.


At last. :yeah:
da2lp08-48.jpg


face-hawke8.jpg
They say your life flashes in front of your eyes before you die.
face-hawke8.jpg
Any helpful flashes yet?
face-aden.jpg
Ah! Er, I think the cargo is in Alton Woodrow's warehouse, not too far from here.
face-aden.jpg
Maker's breath!
Varric rivalry +5


da2lp08-49.jpg


face-guard.jpg
This is private property.
face-hawke8.jpg
You're in my way.
face-guard.jpg
We're under attack!


All your properties belongs to us.

da2lp08-50.jpg

da2lp08-51.jpg


The warehouse is protected by traps, reaver, assassins and whatever you'd expect.

da2lp08-52.jpg

da2lp08-53.jpg

da2lp08-54.jpg


The crate contains poison.
da2lp08-55.jpg

da2lp08-56.jpg


Obligatory ambush near the exit.

da2lp08-57.jpg

da2lp08-58.jpg

da2lp08-59.jpg


da2lp08-60.jpg


face-anders.jpg
Where did you learn yor magic?
face-anders.jpg
I mean, you know my feelings on the Circle, but usually it's the only decent training a mage can get.
face-bethany.jpg
My father taught me. He was in the Circle once, trained there. But he got away.
face-anders.jpg
You don't know how lucky you were, to have someone who loved you and could help you. Most mages would kill for that.
face-bethany.jpg
You remind me of him.


da2lp08-61.jpg


Fuck, now they are cracking old jokes.

da2lp08-62.jpg


face-anders.jpg
So a human, an elf, and a dwarf walk into a bar...
face-anders.jpg
The human says, "You're lucky you're so short. That hurt like mad!"
face-varric.jpg
You could've just stopped me, Blondie.
face-anders.jpg
Why waste a perfectly good set-up?


da2lp08-63.jpg


face-hawke8.jpg
You're smuggling poison into Kirkwall. What are you plotting?
face-martin.jpg
Nothing.
face-martin.jpg
I got the stuff from a legitimate supplier, and I'm going to sell it through legitimate channels. It's all legitimate!
face-hawke8.jpg
It's poison. It kills people.

:what:

face-martin.jpg
I just sell it. I'm not responsible for what people do with it.
face-martin.jpg
So? Where is it?
face-hawke8.jpg
Do you know where Alton Woodrow's warehouse is?
face-martin.jpg
Merchant Woodrow's place? I know it. Thanks for this, friend. You've more than earned your reward.
face-martin.jpg
I'm going to get my goods. You come back once I'm set up, I'll give you a discount.
Varric friendship +5


What's interesting about this quest is the fact that, while being a self-parody, it represents BioWare quest design in a nutshell: Accept the quest - Talk to NPC(s) - Fight - LARP a bit at the end - Get the reward.

Heh. Good to know that at least some female models are "interesting".

Too bad that you're competing with RK47 here - this battle simply can't be won. This guy outsources his LPs to China and India so he's able to update every 10 minutes...

No. He just likes the game that much. :smug:

PART 6 - DEVIL MAY CRY

We are going to recruit the last companion available in act 1.

da2lp09-00.jpg


We need to initiate "Bait and Switch" quest first and thus talk to a dwarven contact. He's surrounded by a horde of bandits.

da2lp09-01.jpg

da2lp09-02.jpg


I like how oblivious NPCs don't give a shit even when a battle rages right behind their backs.

face-anso.jpg
Sweet mother of partha! You can't just run up on someone like that!
face-anso.jpg
Are you... the human Athenril told me about? The one looking for work?
face-hawke9.jpg
Just tell me what you want.
face-anso.jpg
Of course! Listen to me, babbling like a lyrium smuggler! Which I'm not.


His facial expression reminds me of
emot-shepface.gif


face-anso.jpg
My apologies, human. I haven't been on the surface very long. I keep thinking I'll fall up into that sky any minute!
face-varric.jpg
Bartrand used to be like that. Got jumpy every time he stepped outside.
face-bethany.jpg
What a bizarre thing to be scared of.
face-anso.jpg
But I digress! I need some help. Rather badly, in fact. Some product of mine has been... misplaced.
face-anso.jpg
The men who were supposed to deliver it decided not to. If you retrieve my property, I could reward you handsomely...?
face-hawke9.jpg
Make it worth my time, and I'll help you.
face-anso.jpg
Oh, I will! Or I'll try to.
face-anso.jpg
The gentlemen conduct their business at night in a little hovel within the alienage.
face-anso.jpg
If you have to kill them, then I guess it can't be avoided. But I'm sure they'll be reasonable!
Varric friendship +5


Aggressive criminals are everywhere, but there is a simple way to deal with them. Order companions to hold position in some narrow alley and bite maggots one by one.

da2lp09-03.jpg

da2lp09-04.jpg


Level up. And 7th and 14th you are given a choice of specializations which unlock respective talent trees. I pick Reaver for a small damage bonus.

da2lp09-05.jpg


da2lp09-06.jpg


Walkmeshes are glitchy in true Bioware tradition.

da2lp09-07.jpg

da2lp09-08.jpg


The goal of our visit, at last.
da2lp09-09.jpg


The house is full of weak maggots who can be dealt with two awesome buttans. Too easy, it must be a set-up.

da2lp09-10.jpg


It seems that dwarf lied.

da2lp09-11.jpg


face-hawke9.jpg
It's empty.
face-varric.jpg
Waste of bloody time! Who put us up to this?
face-hawke9.jpg
I guess we have no choice but to go back to Anso and tell him.


It is a trap. :roll:
da2lp09-12.jpg

face-tevinter1.jpg
That's not the elf! Who is that?
face-tevinter2.jpg
It doesn't matter! We were told to kill whoever enters the house!


We are against a horde of bounty hunters. Hawke and his crew have enough AoE abilities to keep them busy.

da2lp09-13.jpg

da2lp09-14.jpg


Varric's crossbow can be upgraded to a something not so different from an automatic rifle.
da2lp09-15.jpg


Bounty hunters' leader LARPs a cool guy even after the destruction of his attacking force.

da2lp09-16.jpg


face-captain.jpg
i don't know who you are, friend, but you've made a serious mistake coming here.
face-captain.jpg
Lieutenant! I want everyone in the clearing! Now!
face-lieutenant.jpg
Captain...

The lieutenant is fatally wounded.

da2lp09-17.jpg


face-fenris.jpg
Your men are dead.
face-fenris.jpg
And your trap has failed. I suggest running back to your master while you can.


New love interest! :bounce:
da2lp09-18.jpg


face-captain.jpg
You are going nowhere, slave!

da2lp09-19.jpg


Get over here!

da2lp09-20.jpg


Spiky fist of fury.

da2lp09-21.jpg


I... don't... even....
da2lp09-22.jpg


face-fenris.jpg
I am not a slave.
face-fenris.jpg
I apologize.
face-fenris.jpg
When I asked Anso to provide distraction for the hunters, I had no idea they'd be so... numerous.
face-hawke9.jpg
I take it these men were looking for you.
face-fenris.jpg
Correct.
face-fenris.jpg
My name is Fenris. These men were Imperial bounty hunters seeking to recover a magister's lost property, namely myself.
face-fenris.jpg
They were trying to lure me into the open. Crude as their methods were, I could not face them alone.
face-fenris.jpg
Thankfully, Anso chose wisely.
face-hawke9.jpg
I don't appreciate being lied to.
face-fenris.jpg
Perhaps the deception was unnecessary. If so, I am sorry. I have become too accustomed to hiding.
face-fenris.jpg
If I may ask: What was in the chest? The one they kept in the house?
face-hawke9.jpg
It was empty.
face-fenris.jpg
I suppose it was too much to hope for. Even so, I had to know.
face-hawke9.jpg
I've done what you wanted. The job's over.
face-fenris.jpg
Not just yet.

da2lp09-23.jpg

He checks dead captain's possessions.

face-fenris.jpg
It's as I thought. My former master accompanied them to the city.
face-fenris.jpg
I know you have questions, but I must confront him before he flees. I will need your help.
face-hawke9.jpg
If I'm compensated for my trouble, then I'll help.
face-fenris.jpg
I will find a way to repay you. I swear it.
face-fenris.jpg
The magister is staying at a mansion in Hightown. Meet me there as soon as you can. We must enter before morning.


He even has troubled past! Who knows what kind of "services" he used to perform for his master? :bounce: :bounce: I will help him.

Criminals are not learning animals.

da2lp09-24.jpg


Level-up for Anders. He has unique talent tree consisting of healing and offensive branches.

da2lp09-25.jpg

da2lp09-26.jpg


Brief stop at the Emporium to replenish potion supply.

No one has left the mansion, but I've heard nothing within.
face-fenris.jpg
Danarius may know we're here. I wouldn't put it past him.
face-hawke9.jpg
We shouldn't wait any longer, then.
face-fenris.jpg
Agreed.


He is a forced companion.

Dante Nero has an unique talent tree as well. This mode boosts his crit. chance considerably.

We fight with shades. Indoors combat is easy for you can always resort to an ancient "block the door with bodies" tactic.

He sends spirits to do his fighting for him.
face-fenris.jpg
Danarius! Can you hear me? Your pets cannot stop us!


da2lp09-34.jpg


Even if they manage to break the line, it will be too late for them.

We pick a key that unlock the central chamber from rage demon's body.
da2lp09-39.jpg


Ready to enter.

da2lp09-40.jpg


Duh, the room is empty. Danarius has successfully trolled us. In the meantime monsters are spawning behind our backs.

da2lp09-41.jpg

da2lp09-42.jpg


Done and dusted.

da2lp09-43.jpg


face-fenris.jpg
Gone.
face-fenris.jpg
I had hoped... no, it doesn't matter any longer.
face-fenris.jpg
I assume Danarius left valuables behind. Take them if you wish. I... need some air.


Valuables! Not even a single fucking sovereign. :X

da2lp09-44.jpg


Just noticed that my bedroom king queen is barefoot.

face-fenris.jpg
It never ends.
face-fenris.jpg
I escaped a land of dark magic only to have it me at every turn. It is a plague burned into my flesh and my soul.
face-fenris.jpg
And now I find myself in the company of even more mages.
face-bethany.jpg
You can speak to me directly.
face-fenris.jpg
I saw you casting spells inside. I should have realized sooner what you really were.
face-fenris.jpg
You harbor a viper in your midst. It will turn on you and strike when you least expect. That is in its nature.
face-hawke9.jpg
My sister is stronger than you think.
face-bethany.jpg
You tell him, Brother.
face-anders.jpg
And she isn't the only one.
face-fenris.jpg
I'm not blind. I know magic has its uses, and there are undoubtely mages with good intentions.
face-fenris.jpg
But even the best-intentioned mage can fall prey to temptation, and then their power is a curse to inflict upon others.
face-bethany.jpg
No one's stopping you from moving on, you know.
face-fenris.jpg
I imagine I appear ungrateful. If so, I apologize, for nothing could be further from the truth.
face-fenris.jpg
I did not find Danarius, but I still owe you a debt. Here is all the coin I have, as Anso promised.
face-fenris.jpg
Should you find yourself in need of assistance, i would gladly render it.
face-hawke9.jpg
I'm planning an expedition I might need help with.
face-fenris.jpg
Fair enough.
face-fenris.jpg
Should you ever have need of me, I will be here. If Danarius wishes his mansion back, he is free to return and claim it.
face-fenris.jpg
Beyond that, I am at your displosal.
Fenris rivalry +5
Bettany friendship +5


Fenris actually has a pretty interesting personality. Edgy and lacking in manners, but always ready to out himself, having fragile appearance, but willing to fight, behaving like emo teen, yet supposedly experienced in the art of combat, and hateful of things he doesn't understand, he represents a stereotypical Codexer better than any other character in the game. :M

Let's get drunk with him. :smug:

Agreggio Pavali. There are six bottles in the cellar.
face-fenris.jpg
Danarius used to have me pour it for his guests. My appearance intimidated them, he said, which he enjoyed.

da2lp09-49.jpg


face-hawkesmug.jpg
I can't imagine why they would be put off. :smug:


da2lp09-50.jpg


He throws the bottle

da2lp09-51.jpg

da2lp09-52.jpg


face-fenris.jpg
I'll take that as a compliment.
face-fenris.jpg
It's good I can still take pleasure in the small things.
face-hawke9.jpg
You've had a difficult life.
face-fenris.jpg
I'd rather not speak more of it.
face-hawke9.jpg
Are you certain? I'm willing to listen.
face-fenris.jpg
To my whining? Very charitable of you.
face-fenris.jpg
I've wanted to leave my past behind me. Bit it won't stay there.
face-fenris.jpg
Tell me, have you never wanted to return to Ferelden?
face-hawke9.jpg
I have no home left to return to.
face-fenris.jpg
The Blight is over. You could rebuild what you lost. Do you truly not want to?
face-hawke9.jpg
I have to admit, it's an attractive idea.
face-fenris.jpg
But not now. I understand.
face-fenris.jpg
Still, to have the option... must be gratifying.
face-hawke9.jpg
Sounds like a tough situation.
face-fenris.jpg
I am not made of glass.
face-fenris.jpg
i should thank you again for helping me against the hunters.
face-fenris.jpg
Had I known Anso would find me a man so capable, I might have asked him to look sooner.
face-hawkesmug.jpg
Talk is cheap.

face-fenris.jpg
Is that so?
face-fenris.jpg
Perhaps I'll practice my flattery for your next visit? With any luck I'll become better at it.
Fenris friendship +5


Sorry, no bromance this time. We'll have to wait until Act 2. :(
Hawke returns to uncle's home.

I'm losing track of how many companions we can sleep with...

Going back to the Martin quest, we don't actually have the possibility to refuse to tell him where the poison is ??

Twinkle, why did you stop updating your table of contents? If the lack of the search function has you down, my tutorial will make it all better.

Is that Izzy's contact? Yup, you can tell him to fuck off, and not tell him.

Consequences Volly! You can do that, and lose friendship with Isabela and Varric I think. But refuse him once, then ask for cash, and get the reverse result. PROFIT!

Hawke : Year One is pretty acceptable writing. Bioware really tried to put into consideration that whatever actions you took in that year will carry forth towards the next time-skip. I have a sneaky feeling that they realized it's not possible to cover all the bases and by the end of Year One, they were running out of development time and decided to create fake choices instead.

It was a waste of potential, considering they already saved time with 66% of the map assets being recycled over 40 hours, they still felt the need to pad the content with repetitive combat. I'm not saying Dragon Age 2 was a total failure, it's still a good game, but let down with repetitive combat and rushed development.

Twinkle, what difficulty are you playing at? You seem to be consuming a lot of potions.

True. It earns EA many shinies from gullible consoletards. So not a failure, just a crap game.

If he hasn't changedged difficulty, it's masochist mode.

:salute: You're crazier than I am.

I also believe that if you accept his offer, he opens a poison shop later. More C&C!!!

Or if you have a weapon & shield character or mage drawing all the enemies' attention so your two hander can attack at will with no fear of being counetr attacked...

Not my fave ability, but just sayin'...
