Also, in WoT 2, there is this note by Lady Phyllis Reinhardt. She writes that young girls loved to hear/tell romanticized stories about Malcolm Hawke. "There was such stories about Malcolm Hawke in those days. He was a pirate, he was a lost prince, he was a mercenary with a heart of gold." So are the codex entries just suppose to be some of these stories? [[User:Molon|Molon]] ([[User talk:Molon|talk]]) 18:38, May 17, 2015 (UTC)

: Yeah, I think the contradictions are on purpose. There are even stories within World of Thedas Volume 2 that contradict each other; the stories vary based on who's telling them and in what context. --{{User:Kelcat/Sig}} 04:00, May 18, 2015 (UTC)

Didn't really see a reference for this wiki entry. —Preceding unsigned comment added by TheGreyestWarden (talkcontribs) 21:15, February 22, 2011

It's from the codex entry on Hawke. --D. (talk · contr) 22:01, February 22, 2011 (UTC)

Any Idea...

HOW Malcolm Hawke died? Was it a spell gone awry, old age, a wasting sickness...

WHAT his schools of magical study were, or if he had knowledge and ability in them all, or what?

Just wondering, because Malcolm Hawke is a character that I wish had been developed/acknowledged more.


NovaZero: Bethany says he died during the blight. Retcon maybe?

Voice Actor

Does anyone know who the voice actor for Malcolm was in Legacy? My brain wanted to make me think it was Boulton, with some alteration to the voice in post-production, but that's more than likely wishful thinking.

It is the same VA as male hawke ...


CB

Hi, I asked Mike Laidlaw and he told me Nick Boulton voiced Malcolm in Legacy. He praised his wide range and versatility in managing to sound completely different to male Hawke while doing it!

Yep Nicholas Boulton, straight from Laidlaw: http://img405.imageshack.us/img405/5553/hhhcm.png So apparently it's not even been altered! Amazing! --Mallory6 (talk) 13:23, August 8, 2011 (UTC)

Some more info about Malcolm

Can we use the info in the codex of Malcolm's things to fill his profile? Like his tunics: the Fugitive mantle and Malcolm's Bequest, and staves: The Staff of Parthalan, and the Malcolm's Honor. There is some info about his time as mercenary for the Crisom Oars and others, and the Ball when he meets Leandra disguised with that Orlesian Mask. And, I don't remember well, Did he help the Wardens in exchange of Larius help with Lord Aristide? Lhomepereta (talk) 19:13, January 15, 2012 (UTC)

Picture change

I think this picture would be better. It is from the Keep. User signature henioo henioo (da talk page) 19:11, October 30, 2014 (UTC)

Oh god, yeah, that's way better. --Kelcat Talk 19:15, October 30, 2014 (UTC)
Yes! Let's use it. --Death by Cheese (talk) 20:32, October 30, 2014 (UTC)
Going to have to vote no on this one. While I agree the current image is not great but I would still favour taking an in game appearance image over artwork from a tertiary product and a different title to Malcolm's only actual direct appearance in the series.

Frankly, I don't think either picture qualifies as a "good illustration". --Koveras Alvane (talk) 22:35, November 2, 2014 (UTC)

DA2 item DLC codex entries

Are these codex entries even a part of Malcolm's true backstory? They claim he came to Kirkwall on a job for his mercenary work, and that's how he meets Leandra. This contradict what Leandra, Bethany, Gamlen and Tobrius, who say Malcolm was a Kirkwall Circle mage. Now they contradicts the WoT2, which says he had been at mage at Kirkwall Circle (ever since he was young apprentice), and it says nothing about him ever being a merc.

Also, in WoT 2, there is this note by Lady Phyllis Reinhardt. She writes that young girls loved to hear/tell romanticized stories about Malcolm Hawke. "There was such stories about Malcolm Hawke in those days. He was a pirate, he was a lost prince, he was a mercenary with a heart of gold."
