Unemployed Nerd Chronicles - Day 7: I Have...Work Tomorrow
Sunday, February 13, 2011 at 11:14PM The last day, and first thing on my agenda was finally puting Dragon Age to rest. I went back to Redcliffe, to prepare with our troops for the final battle. Then Alistair and I found out what it truely means to be a Grey Warden, and why we're the only ones who can destroy the Archdemon(a giant dragon). If we manage to slay the dragon his essence will simple travel to one of the lesser darkspawn and rise again. But since in the Grey Warden initiation we drink the blood of the darkspawn, the essence of the Archdemon will go into who ever takes the killing blow...killing him and destroying the Archdemon(forever?). So either Alistair or myself would die in this mission. But once I got back to my room I was met by Morrigan, the dark witch who has been in my party. She knew of what would happen with the Archdemon, and knew of a way to kill the Archdemon without me or Alistair dying. It was a dark ritual...I had to sleep with her to conceive a child, who when the Archdemon died his essence would instead of going into me, it would go into the baby. Not killing it, but supposedly purifying the soul of the old god that became the Archdemon. Ane Morrigan would leave forever and I could not go after her. I agreed to this bargan, and didn't mention it to my paramour Leliana. So the next day we head into battle, the new king Alistair gave some rousing speeches, using my example to get the troops riled up, then we were off. I had to choose my team to go fight the Darkspawn Generals, leaving the rest of my party to defend the Gates. I ended up bringing Alistair for Attack/Defense, Morrigan for Healing Spells/Long range attacks, and Oghren to hit things with a big sword. I left Sten, Leliana, Zevron, and my dog to defend the gates against more darkspawn. After climbing the tower, calling on my army of dwarves and mages, we went at it with the Archdemon. To put it simply I kicked his ass, made the killing blow, and became the Champion of Fereldin. Everyone was very surprised that I survived the ordeal, but happy, and Morrigan disapeared the next day, never seen again. During the process of this game, I had a threeway with 2 dwarf ladies, a prostitute, Morrigan(twice), Leliana, and I only sired 2 bastard children.
