A truly happy ending, in the long-term, just isn't an option. The main quest of Dragon Age: Origins is slowly revealed as a suicide mission one way or the other, with even a Warden who survives the Archdemon being doomed to die an early death to the Darkspawn. This detail added a level of complexity to Dragon Age: Origins story that the subsequent games haven't quite matched. Alistair reveals in Origins, however, that even Wardens who survive see several side effects, including receiving the psychic transmissions the Archdemon transmits to its horde, and, usually about 30 years after their joining, eventually succumbing to the Darkspawn’s call and wandering into the Deep Roads to die. Grey Wardens are able to sense Darkspawn and kill Archdemons because they drink the blood of the Darkspawn during their joining ritual, which few survive. If The Warden went through with Morrigan's dark ritual at the end of Origins, the Inquisitor can also meet The Warden's child, Kieran. Depending on choices made in the first game, Morrigan, Alistair, or Leliana can tell the Inquisitor that The Warden is off searching for a way to prevent The Calling. After all, a human noble Warden could be King or Queen of Ferelden, and at the very least is talked about as a well-known and influential figure after the events of the first game.ĭragon Age: Inquisition gives players some inkling of The Warden’s whereabouts. For many players, however, the lack of The Warden’s presence in the world seems odd. For some fans of the series, this will make total sense if they chose to sacrifice their player character to stop the Blight at the end of Origins.

The Warden from Dragon Age: Origins has not been seen in the series since the first game.
