Fergus Cousland is the Human Noble Warden's elder brother and heir to Highever. At the beginning of Dragon Age: Origins, he is sent off to the war with the darkspawn as the Couslands answer King Cailan Theirin's call for aid.

Background

Fergus is the eldest child of Bryce and Eleanor Cousland and heir to the teyrnir of Highever. He was trained as a warrior and married Oriana, the daughter of a rich Antivan trader, with whom he has a son, Oren. Despite his martial skill, many outside of Highever speculate that Fergus' younger sibling is more likely to become teyrn of Highever than Fergus himself.

Involvement

Dragon Age: Origins

Teyrn Bryce Cousland asks his younger child to bid Fergus farewell, as the future Warden has to stay back and make sure the castle is safe. After this is done, Fergus promptly leaves Highever. He is therefore unaware of the attack on the castle, as he left before Arl Rendon Howe's treachery. He was sent to lead a scouting mission prior to the battle of Ostagar, and did not return in time to fight in the battle.

After the party retreats to Morrigan's home, the Warden has the option to order the companions to look for him. Morrigan will say it is impossible to go looking without any sort of guidance, and so the plan is dropped.

He is indirectly involved in Dragon Age: Origins - Awakening. Oghren mentions to Nathaniel in party banter that "Fergus Cousland said you wouldn't have the stones to show your face again." There is also a possible ending for Nathaniel when he saves the life of Fergus (now Teyrn Cousland) from bandits.

If the Warden in Witch Hunt DLC is not related to him there is a chance he will be mentioned in a codex entry. If the Mabari was not recruited in Origins or the Warden-Commander is Orlesian, then he will have given the Mabari to the Commander of the Grey as a gift.
