The operation text gives the player more clues for the logic grid puzzle: the [[Tal-Vashoth]] is not the bard, the elf is not the [[Mortalitasi]], the dwarf is not the smuggler, and the target is the [[Fereldan]] human. The player's goal is to match each race given in [[Investigate Hunter Fell]] with a different background in order to identify the background of the Fereldan human (the [[Venatori]] agent). Each advisor will send the [[Ben-Hassrath]] to assassinate a different target.

Identify Venatori Agent is a war table operation in Dragon Age: Inquisition. It is the final part of a logic grid puzzle in which the player must identify a Venatori agent from clues uncovered by the advisors.

Acquisition

This operation will become available to the player at the war table once Continue Investigation has been completed.

Operation text

An excerpt from a Ben-Hassrath information report:

All information about the Five Belles of Hunter Fell has come back negative. The Tal-Vashoth is not the bard, the elf is not the Mortalitasi, and the dwarf is not the smuggler.

And an addendum:

We have learned that the Fereldan is the Venatori agent, but unless we can link her to a specific background quickly, we will lose this lead. We must remove the target immediately to stop Duke Tythas from falling prey to Venatori interests.

Advisor suggestions

Josephine - 24:00:00

Have Iron Bull tell the Ben-Hassrath to eliminate the bard.

Leliana - 19:12:00

Have Iron Bull tell the Ben-Hassrath to eliminate the smuggler.

Cullen - 24:00:00

Have Iron Bull tell the Ben-Hassrath to take down the Mortalitasi.

Results

Josephine

Leliana

An excerpt from a Ben-Hassrath information report:

The target was eliminated, and as expected, all other targets went into hiding. Duke Tythas did not locate our operatives during his search.

Information the duke found on the corpse revealed the smuggler's Venatori involvement. Duke Tythas has cut off trade with the Tevinter Imperium and is thorougly investigating his city. Hunter Fell is no longer subject to Venatori influence.

Per his request, operative "Iron Bull" will receive further intelligence reports to continue his efforts. Supplies from Seheron have also been dispatched.

Notes

The operation text gives the player more clues for the logic grid puzzle: the Tal-Vashoth is not the bard, the elf is not the Mortalitasi, the dwarf is not the smuggler, and the target is the Fereldan human. The player's goal is to match each race given in Investigate Hunter Fell with a different background in order to identify the background of the Fereldan human (the Venatori agent). Each advisor will send the Ben-Hassrath to assassinate a different target.

After Investigate Hunter Fell and Continue Investigation, all players should now have the following information, which is available regardless of advisor combinations from the previous operations:

  • The Five Belles of Hunter Fell are an Orlesian human, a Fereldan human, an elf, a dwarf, and a Tal-Vashoth
  • The Five Belles of Hunter Fell are a Mortalitasi, a dragon hunter, a bard, a smuggler, and an apostate
  • The Venatori agent is the Fereldan human
  • The Tal-Vashoth is not a mage
  • The Tal-Vashoth is not the smuggler
  • The Tal-Vashoth is not the bard
  • The Dwarf is not the smuggler

This additional information comes from understanding the following Dragon Age lore:

Since the player must kill either the bard, the smuggler, or the Mortalitasi, assume the target must be one of those three

The key pieces of information to discover during the investigation are the profession of the elf and the identity of the Mortalitasi:

  • Josephine determines that the Elf is NOT the smuggler. Based on the information always available, she must be the the apostate.
  • Cullen determines that the apostate is NOT a human. Based on the information always available, she must be the Elf.
  • Leliana, however, does not learn either of these pieces of information.

  • Josephine determines that the Tal-Vashoth and Orlesian are enemies, due to the Orlesian "binding corpses with magic." This identifies her as a necromancer, at the very least.
  • Cullen determines that the Mortalitasi is "friendly with the Fereldan and the dwarf, and a Circle member in good standing." This means that the Mortalitasi is NOT Fereldan. Based on the information always available, the only option is the Orlesian.
  • Leliana determines that both the Orlesian and the elf are the two mages of the Five Belles. Based on the information always available, apostate is the only 'mage' job available to the Elf, while both are available to the Orlesian. Therefore, the Orlesian is the Mortalitasi.


Logic Grid Puzzle Solution:

  • The Orlesian human is the Mortalitasi
  • The Fereldan human is the smuggler and the Venatori agent
  • The elf is the apostate
  • The dwarf is the bard
  • The Tal-Vashoth is the dragon hunter
The correct solution is to follow Leliana's advice and assassinate the smuggler. Even lacking the information to complete the full logic grid, identifying the Mortalitasi is sufficient, as the bard is always identifiable by working backwards with the Ben-Hassrath's information. With the smuggler as the only remaining option for the Fereldan human, that is the only option that can lead to a positive outcome.
