So here’s my definitely not princess Aeducan wandering into Tapsters for mercenary work for fun and getting hired by a “lesser noble” (definitely not Bhelen with a helmet on) to find a mystery artifact in the deep roads for a “major house”

The Warden-Commander: Marja Aeducan

DoomHippy's Character Fixpack

Alterations to 10 Dragon Age Origins characters, mostly to make them look their ages, less villainy, or just for fun. No extra mods used. Characters altered: Alistair; Anora; Arl Howe; Bhelen; Cullen; Jowan; Lily; Loghain; Wynne; Zevran. Elf Update compatible version available.

Then they go back home. Aeducan wants personal vengeance and Brosca wants a future for their sister, nephew, and people. They split, each supporting their own side until a decision has to be made. Remembering their time on the surface, where caste and house meant nothing, Aeducan relents. They offer their support with the exception that Bhelen must redeem himself by honoring his promise to the casteless of Orzammar.

And he does. Certainly his methods are questionable, but he honors that commitment. He fully accepts Brosca as family, promising them that he will marry Rica. He re-inducts Aeducan back into their house and has them added back into the memories. 

how i feel about him - stinky garbage boy belongs in the garbage

who i ship romantically with him - pft nobody

non romantic otp - garbage can

unpopular opinion - i didnt make him king at first but then i read some codex about harrowmont was a coward so i put this shithead on the throne

one thing i wish would have / had happened in canon - hm more telling him to his face what a pos he is lol

Like it’s general knowledge that Orzammar and the Deep Roads is the longest fucking quest line in the entire game - you can kill the Archdemon quicker than you can find your way through the Deep Roads or win The Proving - not helped by the fact you keep having to go back and forth from the surface to complete everything, and you try and make the right, helpful decisions (eg letting matey have his Chantry and choosing the right King and what to do with the Anvil of the Void), and no matter what, the epilogue is basically like:

“DESPITE THE WARDEN’S EFFORTS, THE WHOLE FUCKING PLACE RIOTED AND KILLED EACH OTHER ANYWAY. OH WELL, THAT’S WHAT DWARVES ARE LIKE”
