Codex Entry: Paragons Known and Lesser Known

The criteria the dwarves use to name a Paragon never ceases to fascinate me. While a relatively rare distinction, it seems almost any achievement of significance warrants the title. Some Paragons are the victors of great battles. Others write books or songs. The only common thread is an act that betters or sustains the dwarven way of life in some notable fashion. Aeducan is among the oldest and perhaps most famous Paragons. Not to be confused with his descendent, King Endrin Aeducan, this prior Aeducan was a humble member of the Warrior Caste whose brave leadership during the First Blight saved Orzammar. When other thaigs were lost, Aeducan claimed defeat—but his service made him a hero. History now remembers Aeducan as the quintessential Paragon.

News of the Hour! Lord Harrowmont’s cinematic trailer for Dragon Age The Veilguard divides the fanbase! Will Price Bhelen’s gameplay trailer redeem it?

Hey everyone. My community about Dragon Age dwarves got approved.

Interact with this post if you would like an invite.

house helmi still split on literally every single issue so that they always win. love them

[biancadavri]

for your consideration: if the warden is aeducan or brosca regardless of whether they live or die, they become a paragon in the epilogue

y’know. a surface dwarf. surfacer. sun-touched and everything. a paragon!

(how pissed do you think bianca was when she found out)

I’m just imaging a situation post-Trespasser where my Warden Aeducan has really settled in to her new life as the Divine’s trophy wife, and one day, Leliana tells her “Don’t be mad, but I may have promised Inquisitor Lavellan that you’d have tea with her next month and give her some advice on navigating her post-world-saving life.” And of course she says yes, both because she loves her wife and she knows what happens to people who go against her wishes.

Unbeknownst to either of them, Varric learns about this and suggests to Hawke that she visit Lavellan the same day, to help lift her spirits, y’know? Merrill can come too and chat with Clan Lavellan’s Keeper.

Cut to Aeducan walking in on perennial fuckup Marian Hawke giving Lavellan some truly atrocious, if humorous, advice, and Hawke having to contend with the goddamn Hero of Ferelden strolling in to save the day once again.

And once the three of them get to talking, Aeducan has to be very careful, because she recognizes that it would be incredibly insensitive on multiple levels to other two women to say things along the lines of “Yeah, so my brother dying, me being forced out of the only home I’ve never known, then conscripted into a paramilitary organization that was completely foreign to my culture was honestly the best thing that ever happened to me. I got to save the world and receive near-universal fame for it, including being religiously venerated by my own people. Speaking of religion, my wife is considered something of a radical by her peers, but in spite of that, she was able to rise to a position of power, letting her push through reforms that include marrying me, cause she loves me so much that she’s not afraid to show me her ruthless side. Now we live in the lap of luxury together, being influential girlboss wives.”

In the end, they mostly engage in some good-natured shit-talking of their mutual friends and acquaintances. Before she leaves, however, Aeducan does encourage Lavellan to continue her painting and even offers to put in a good word with Leliana about commissioning some official Chantry murals from her about the history of the Inquisition.

i need everyone to know that morrigan's datv appearance is single-handedly making me debate whether magni and morrigan are actually still together or are divorced.

In Bioware's Dragon Age: Origins, the Warden has the choice choosing Orzammar's next king. If Bhelen (@WallyWingert) is chosen and that save is imported to Dragon Age 2, Renvil Harrowmont will give Hawke an opportunity to make coin and experience.

Royal recognises royal

Babygirl (the strongest woman you've ever met and a capable leader of armies) defeated the Blight T-T

[bumblewarden]

so between the low dwarven fertility and the noble hunters and offspring inheriting the caste of their same-gender parent, would orzammar's noble caste be becoming increasingly male over time?

[invinciblerodent]

why do I always wind up with AUs in my head where the primary love interest of my character dies a tragic death

I might need to unpack that in myself a little bit, kind of

[spellmage]

i finished my canon worldstate da:o playthrough today and the end made me FEEL THINGS. i hadn't played the dwarf noble origin until now and agh. my warden being accepted back into house aeducan AND being made a paragon. i want to give her a hug she doesn't want any of that

[crunchbuttsteak]

Just had a revelation w/r/t dragon age origins.

Bhelen is an MCU villain.
