The Architect

"I do not seek to rule my brethren. I only seek to release them from their chains."

The Architect is a unique darkspawn emissary, seemingly being the first darkspawn to develop a will of its own. It is unusual in that it does not appear to be subject to the call of the Old Gods, nor to any other darkspawn compulsion.

Personality
Normally, the Architect shows a calm, polite personality. However, it is shown to be cold, decisive, and callous, as it seeks to free its kind of the Old Gods' calling with whatever means necessary, even if that meant sacrificing its allies for the greater good. Although it is highly intelligent, the Architect has little understanding of other races and is thus misjudges how they react.
