• When you quote characters from the game and say "(your name) disapproves" when nobody has any idea what you're rambling about. -unregistered fanboy, 11:38, August 16, 2011 (UTC)

I've done that last one. A lot of times. I even add the amount by which my approval dropped. I'm a nerd. Quirkynature (talk) 16:41, August 16, 2011 (UTC)

Me too my nerdy friend, me too. Xelestial (talk) 16:49, August 16, 2011 (UTC)

What kind of self-respecting mage uses a wand, anyway. Andy the Black (talk) 18:59, August 16, 2011 (UTC)

And THAT is exactly why Harry Potter could only defeat Voldemort. Leave the Archdemon to the big players like the Warden, yeah, Potty? 9001 POINTS FROM GRYFFINDOR FOR SHEER IDIOCY! Take on the Archdemon. Pfft. Kids these days. Quirkynature (talk) 20:01, August 16, 2011 (UTC)

Although, watching the Arishok's reaction to a wand-wielding Hawke would probably be worth it. HELO (talk) 20:14, August 16, 2011 (UTC)

Start out with the Imperius Curse and have him dance all about the Viscount's Keep. Or if you're feeling particularly daring, start with Expelliarmus and watch his horns rip off his head. Possibilities, possibilities. Quirkynature (talk) 20:32, August 16, 2011 (UTC)

I think that's actually in the strategy guide. And then you finish him off with a...what would Hawke's Patronus be, anyway? A generic warehouse? A couple of waves of halla? HELO (talk) 20:45, August 16, 2011 (UTC)

Remember Cave 1? It's the same as Caves 2, 3 and 4. I think that fits. No. It has to be something that fits. Harry had a stag, which was for his father. Snape (**sniff**) had a doe, for Lily Evans. Let's see...Hawke can have...something that can be summoned but goes away on it's own, too...a mabari? That's it! Hawke's Patronus is a mabari houn--Oh. My. God. BioWare is in league with J. K. Rowling!
