Say I wanted to tailor my own Dragon Age universe in a way that plays nicely with all of the extended lore (book, comics, etc.) that has been put out, what choices would I have to make? So far all I have found is: Alistair is made king of Ferelden Alistair performs the dark ritual with Morrigan (at least in the Dark Horse comics)
I can see notes on some wiki articles pointing out when a story follows this particular sort of canon, but cannot seem to search for just that tag. Any other decisions made by Bioware that could contradict player choice when looking at the extended lore?--Dbiznaz (talk) 23:13, September 13, 2014 (UTC)
On DAO: I would consider Leliana and Wynne both living through Sacred Ashes (even if you killed them in game) to be their cannon as well because they ret-conned both of their deaths out of the story going forward since they decided to use them both for integral plot points. You could consider Morgan living through Witch Hunt one as well although 'technically" they don't show her outright dying. On DAII: Isabella living is probably cannon as well since you see her running around in the comics.
I'll post more if I think of themVhardamis (talk) 23:28, September 13, 2014 (UTC)
In terms of DA:O canon, if you played darkspawn chronicles, that pretty much sums up biowares canon, with the exception of the warden passing the joining ritual. I think it does anyway, not 100% sure, but its worth checking out what choices were made in that, just in case. With DA2 canon, I'll think we'll find out more once the keep is released, I'm sure Bioware will also state their own specific canon world state, then allow players to adjust it to their own desires. Also, I think from the destiny trailer, DA2 canon will have a Hawke mage champion who killed the Arishok, hence Isabela being alive in the comics.
