Jerrik Dace

Jerrik Dace is the nephew of the House Dace's patriarch Lord Anwer Dace and a companion in the The Golems of Amgarrak DLC.

Background
He has a growing reputation for getting difficult tasks done. An elite veteran of many Deep Roads expeditions, Jerrik has survived The Battle of Umgol Hale, The Last Stand of Paerin Aeducan, and was pivotal in the recent campaign that pushed the darkspawn from Orzammar's mining tunnels out past Caridin’s Cross.

Jerrik Dace favors fighting with a longsword and dagger. Piotin Aeducan calls Jerrik a stalwart ally and implacable foe, adding that "you’d be wise to make sure he's the former.” Dace is always accompanied by Snug, the faithful bronto that he nursed back to health on his first military campaign. Snug is fiercely loyal, surprisingly intelligent, and rarely leaves his master's side.

Rumors persist that when Anwer Dace dies, House Dace may support Jerrik over Anwer’s son, Mandar. Certainly, the two cousins are bitter rivals, having fought multiple times in the arena with Jerrik always emerging victorious. This rivalry may be connected to several assassination attempts on Jerrik, from which he survived with apparent ease.

Recently, Jerrik Dace sought the aid of the Grey Wardens on an urgent matter. All he would tell others is that he’s mounting a small, nimble expedition to find his missing brother, Brogan, who is lost in the Deep Roads. Some say he’s in fact mounting an expedition to find the fabled halls of Amgarrak Thaig, but few believe such an outlandish notion.

Bug
If you use Memoirs of the First Wardens on Jerrik he will lose one specialization point (can only choose 2 specializations instead of 3).
