Hawke



Hawke is the name of central protagonist of Dragon Age 2. Unlike Origins, players no longer have a choice of their character. While previous game had a choice of seven surnames and backgrounds, in DA2 there will be only one:Hawke. Hawke is fully voiced, can be either male or female, has a fully customizable appearance and, as in Origins, can be a mage, rogue or warrior.

Hawke is a human who lived in Lothering during the Blight in Ferelden, escaping the darkspawn attack by fleeing north to the Free Marches and eventually rising to become "the single most important character in the world of Dragon Age". Along the way the title of "The Champion of Kirkwall" is earned. Over the course of the game's 10-year timeline, players' actions and choices will determine Hawke's history, relationships, and regrets...all in service to answering the larger question: Who is the Champion of Kirkwall?

Hawke has a sister named Bethany, who will support him or her as a mage companion.
