- Human Noble
- Mages, Dalish, and Harrowmount recruited.
- Caridin supported and Ashes disappeared.
- Alistair rules alone and Loghain is killed.
- Dark Ritual accepted and the Warden kills Archie.
- Zevran, Shale, Avernus, and Sophia Dryden survive. Cailan's body is not recovered.
- Amaranthine is saved, Vigil's Keep is destroyed, and Nathaniel Howe dies.
Amusingly, the most important world-changing decision in DA:A (to allow/deny Architect's agenda) is not recorded.
As for DA2, I'm going with the apologists' excuses from early on... Varric made it all up. User:Futonrevoltion
Shale survivies? Of course she survives. There's no way to kill her...is there? I might have forgotten. Quirkynature (talk) 14:55, June 5, 2011 (UTC)
- If you take her to Deep Roads and side with Bianca, she sides with Caridin and you have to kill her. Dorquemada (talk) 14:58, June 5, 2011 (UTC)
- That happen even if her approval is almost 100? Quirkynature (talk) 15:01, June 5, 2011 (UTC)
- Yep. Dorquemada (talk) 15:05, June 5, 2011 (UTC)

I thought that the warden was a saint,not a cult-siding bitch.And that he would do anything for every1 to be happy,even Loghain.Hexlord (talk) 15:00, June 5, 2011 (UTC) -->Hexlord
- Though the Warden reflects what kind of person the player is, I'd hold off on canonizing yourself, as a saint and/or Laidlaw's decree from on high. User: Futonrevoltion
The only things that are cannon are the things that will happen in every playthrough regardless of decisions made. A new recruit joined the Wardens at Ostagar. That is canon. That recruit and Alistair gathered the treaties to build an army. That is canon. Which armies they were (Mages or Templar, Dalish or Werewolves) is not canon. They called a Landsmeet to challenge Loghain. That is canon. The outcome is not canon. The Arch Demon was killed and the Blight ended. That is canon. Who struck the killing blow and whether or not the Dark Ritual was performed, those are not canon. Leliana is alive in DA2. That is canon. Whether she survived Origins or was returned to life somehow in Haven is not canon. Rayvio (talk) 16:18, June 5, 2011 (UTC)
- Exactly. I read somewhere(can't really remember) that Gaider or Laidlaw said there was no such thing as canon in Dragon Age. Canon is whatever you want it to be by playing through it. Mind you, they may do the OP's scenario for the movie or something. --CommanderCousland (talk) 19:02, June 5, 2011 (UTC)
What do you want to achieve with this? Establish your playthrough as canon? I don't get the point. There are multiple canons, DA II didn't have a singular canon, so why should future installments have a singular true canon? Lemonaidz (talk) 19:49, June 5, 2011 (UTC)
I'd suspect they'd avoid these senarios in any movie to avoid canon, and if they did choose one, it would probably be the first pre-built history you choose in DAII. Plus, Hawke can't side with the mages and become the Viscount. 168.103.93.227 (talk) 21:35, June 5, 2011 (UTC)
- The female Jedi exile in SWKOTOR2 couldnt gain Brianna as a companion, but it was established canon that she did. Anyway, canonocity sucks. Why cant movies and shows just be prequals to things like DA? That way, poeple like me dont get upset that our choices dont count, and people like... uh... you know... dont get... whatever. 99.129.25.66 (talk) 00:00, June 6, 2011 (UTC)
Ugh, canon. I hated it when Lucasarts did that to Revan (Light Side, male, gets Bastila Shan in the end), and the Exile (Light Side and female, to appease the fans who asked why Revan couldn't be canonicaly female) and, IIRC, the guys at Bioware weren't exactly thrilled at the prospect, either.
I hope that, at least, they haven't forgotten that, although they've apparently forgotten about the backlash that making Revan disappear caused back in the day.
Oh well. Durwen (talk) 08:47, June 6, 2011 (UTC)
There is no such thing as canon for Dragon Age because the story is so changed by each person's playthrough. The trailers shown for Sacred Ashes and DA2 are the choice of the developers. Hawke was a mage in DA2 so that they could show off both the new up-close combat as well as magic. The Warden was a warrior because they wanted to show every style of fighting (Sten shows 2 handed, Leliana shows dual blades and bow, Morrigan shows magic). These characters are not canon, there is no such thing for this game. Certain events, as said by User:Rayvio above, are canon but others have various outcomes and cannot be canon.
