Thanks! That's great I'll try and work them into the articles. To get paragraphs I've found I either have use double spacing, or place <br /> at the end of a sentence where you want a line break. Loleil 06:54, October 14, 2009 (UTC)

Where are these learned?

It seems to me the most important information is where to learn these. I haven't finished the game, but I've found a few of these.
Berserker - Can be learned from a book purchased from a vendor(I don't recall which).
Assassin - Can be learned from Zevran he joins your group.
Bard - Manual purchased from Alicar in the Dust Town section of Orzammar
Duelist - Can be learned from Isabel at the Pearl in Denemir
Ranger - Manual purchased from Bodahn Feddic in your camp
Shapeshifter - Can be learned from Morrigan after she joins your group.
If other people could fill in the blanks and get these posted, I think it would be really helpful.
Templar: Can be learned from Alistair after he likes you enough.
Blood Mage: Can be learned from the demon in Connor if you decide to make a deal with him. --Kurtov 06:28, November 6, 2009 (UTC)
