“The Bannorn will not bow to you simply because you demand it!”


Teagan Guerrin is the Bann of Rainesfere. He is Arl Eamon Guerrin's younger brother as well as the brother of Rowan, the deceased queen of Ferelden and a member of the Guerrin family. This makes him uncle to King Cailan Theirin.

Background

Like his brother Eamon, Teagan spent at least a part of his childhood in Redcliffe before he was sent to the north to live with relations in the Free Marches as their father and sister joined the rebellion. He was 8 years old when his father perished at the battle of West Hill.

Involvement

Dragon Age: Origins


This section contains spoilers for:
Dragon Age: Origins.


Immediately after the battle at Ostagar Teagan is shown standing against Loghain Mac Tir at the Landsmeet, highly suspicious of Loghain's withdrawal from the Battle of Ostagar. It seems he is the original instigator of the Bannorn's resistance against Loghain's regency, and he brushes off Queen Anora's reassurances.

When the Warden and party later arrive in Redcliffe, they find out that the city is besieged by undead, and that the seriously ill Arl Eamon is locked in his own castle, with no word from it at all. Bann Teagan is currently in charge of the town's defense and he pleads with the Warden & Alistair (if he's present) to help them defend the city; the Warden can agree or refuse. If the Warden elects to help, Teagan will answer any questions and direct him/her to the Mayor Murdock and the knight Ser Perth.

After the battle, Teagan gives a celebration speech, and asks the Warden to meet him by the windmill for their next move. He reveals there is a secret passage, and did not mention it before as he wanted to help in the battle. At that moment, Arlessa Isolde suddenly runs down the hill, to his shock. She insists that Teagan go in with her alone to help her son Connor, speaking of a "terrible evil" in the castle that is behind the attacks. He passes his Signet ring to the Warden, so they can take the secret passage and infiltrate the castle while he tries to create a distraction.

As it turns out, Connor is possessed by a Desire Demon, which ensorcels Bann Teagan. When the Warden confronts Connor, a brawl breaks out with the enthralled Teagan and castle guards. After the fight, he regains his senses and retrieves Jowan, who talks of a blood ritual to send a mage into the Fade to attack the demon controlling Connor (unless you elected to let Jowan out of his cell with the comment "Run. I don't want to see you again. Ever," in which case it will be Morrigan who mentions the ritual if she is in your party). After the Warden deals with the desire demon (one way or another), Teagan remains to watch over the Arling while Eamon remains comatose.

Once the Urn of Andraste is found and Eamon recovers, Teagan stays with his brother at Redcliffe Castle. Later, Eamon orders Teagan to stay with the Redcliffe garrison while he and the Warden go to participate in the Battle of Denerim. However, he brings reinforcements and was not far behind the main body of the Fereldan army: he is seen duelling and killing a hurlock as the Archdemon perishes at Fort Drakon, and leads a final attack on the routed darkspawn as the horde flees Denerim.

If the Warden sacrifices him/herself to kill the Archdemon, Teagan will be present at the funeral.


The Darkspawn Chronicles

Darkspawn Chronicles.


Bann Teagan appears in the Darkspawn Chronicles DLC. He rallies a squadron of soldiers outside the Arl of Redcliffe's Estate's in Denerim's Market District. He is the final boss of the Kill Bann Teagan quest.


Dragon Age II


This section contains spoilers for:
Dragon Age II.


Teagan can make three different cameos during the course of Dragon Age II, depending on the choices you made in Dragon Age: Origins:

  • If Alistair was made king of Ferelden, he will appear as Alistair's aide during the quest "King Alistair" in Act 3.
  • If Alistair was exiled and became a wandering drunk, Teagan will appear in The Hanged Man during Act 2 and talk a reluctant Alistair into returning to Ferelden.
  • He will appear as a guest of Duke Prosper's at Chateau Haine - with or without Isolde, depending on player choices, during the events of the Mark of the Assassin DLC. If Hawke has already encountered Alistair and Teagan, the Bann will mention their previous meeting.


Dragon Age: The Masked Empire

Dragon Age: The Masked Empire.


As the Fereldan ambassador in Orlais, he attends a ball in the royal palace at Val Royeaux, where Grand Duke Gaspard taunts him with the lost sword of Moira Theirin, claiming that it was taken off her corpse and is now used to kill rats. The Duke intends to provoke a deadly duel that would sour relations between Orlais and Ferelden but Empress Celene cleverly defuses the situation and satisfies Teagan's honor by having the men duel with feathers instead, the symbol of the Chevalier.[4] Teagan sends Celene a letter voicing his gratitude and returns quickly to Ferelden to avoid any further trouble.


Dragon Age: Inquisition

The village of Redcliffe and the surrounding Hinterlands are locations featured in Dragon Age: Inquisition.[5][6] Teagan was promoted to Arl during the time period of Dragon Age: The Silent Grove and is currently addressed as the Arl of Redcliffe.[7] The role he may play in Dragon Age: Inquisition is unknown.

Trivia

  • While Teagan normally is seen wearing only his noble's outfit in Redcliffe, during his cutscenes in Denerim he is wearing a set of iron heavy chainmail.
  • If the Warden is female, she can optionally flirt with Teagan at the chantry. This does not lead anywhere, and has no effect on any romanced companions (even if they are in the party).
  • Teagan's eyes and hair between Dragon Age: Origins and Dragon Age II are different colors, blue eyes and brown hair in Origins and brown eyes and red hair in Dragon Age II; this may be due to a mistake by the developers.
  • Before the final battle his name is Lord Teagan, not Bann Teagan.
  • Despite being told to stay behind in Redcliffe, Teagan will be seen in Denerim during the final battle.

Dialogue

  • Anora: "Bann Teagan, my father is doing what is best."
  • Teagan: "Did he also do what was best for your husband, Your Majesty?"

Dragon Age II

  • (While speaking with a female Hawke) "You're very brave. Take this, with my blessings. You remind me of someone...I hold dear, though I never had the courage to say that to her."

Dialogue

  • Alistair (to Hawke): "Right! I'm Alistair, uh...King of Ferelden. And this is Teagan, my uncle. Sort of."
  • Teagan: "I'm actually Teagan. I'm only sort of his uncle."
