- See Fade: Shapeshifting for information about the Mouse Form available during the quest The Fade: Lost in Dreams.
Mouse is a character met by The Warden in the Fade during their Harrowing, if they are of Mage Origin. Mouse can be a temporary companion during the Harrowing.
Background
Mouse claims to be another mage apprentice, trapped in the Fade after the Templars killed him for taking too long to complete his Harrowing. What could give Mouse's lie away is that he wears senior enchanter's robes, If he was really an apprentice he would be wearing their robes.
Involved In
- The Harrowing (Quest): Mouse will tell The Warden a bit about the Fade and its denizens. He will initially follow The Warden rather than becoming a party member, but if he is taught to assume Bear form by the Sloth Demon found during the quest, will become a controllable Temporary Companion for the remainder of the quest.
Result
It transpires that Mouse is not another apprentice at all, but the true test that The Warden must face. It seems that Mouse is really a Pride Demon.
Quotes
- "The real dangers of the Fade are preconceptions... careless trust... pride." -- Mouse (Pride Demon)
- "Keep your wits about you, mage, because true tests...never end."
Trivia
- During the quest The Fade: Lost in Dreams, The Warden meets another mouse and can learn to shapehift into this form. The mouse met in that quest appears to genuinely be a mage apprentice trapped in a dream and so is presumably not the same individual.
