Characters from [[Dragon Age: Origins]] - Awakening, and other [[Dragon Age: Origins]] DLC:

 

=== Awakening Party Members ===

 

* [[Cute Kitten]]: Ser Pounce-A-Lot, the kitten that you can give him. In Dragon Age II, he says that the Wardens made him give it up for "making him soft".

** Also had one in the Circle called Mr Wiggums, that later got possessed by a Rage Demon and killed at least 3 Templars before being defeated. Anders considers that Mr Wiggums' proudest moment.

* [[Deadpan Snarker]]

{{quote|'''Nathaniel''': Do you always wear robes?

** He also comments, "bet they regret that rule", when explaining that the only reason he's avoided being made Tranquil is that it's illegal to do that to a mage who has passed their Harrowing. In ''[[Dragon Age II]]'', Anders rages that things are so far gone in the Kirkwall Circle that the templars ''are'' disregarding that rule.

* [[Genre Savvy]]: "A dwarf who smells like a brewery. Never seen that before."

* [[Mind Rape]]: Suggested in his comments during the Joining that he may fear being made Tranquil, as further evidenced by what happens to mages in Kirkwall in ''[[Dragon Age II]]''.

* [[Not So Different]]: Between Nathaniel, who he notes is also hated for who they are. Nathaniel is slightly annoyed by the oversimplification.

* [[Knight in Shining Armor]]: His true form and personality, though he starts off seeing it more as an obligation.

* [[Large Ham]]: In his spirit form. Considering the Spirit of Valor encountered in the Mage Origin, this may be common to all benevolent fade spirits.

* [[Magic Knight]]: His default specialization, Spirit Warrior.

* [[Shout-Out]]: [[Planescape: Torment|He's not the first embodiment of justice trapped in physical form.]] He's just a lot nicer about it.

''"The Howes are pariahs now, those of us left."''

 

 

* [[The Atoner]]: {{spoiler|He honestly wants to make up for how his Father single-handedly ruined his family's name.}}

* [[Badass Normal]]: It took four Grey Wardens to incapacitate him.

The first Disciple encountered in the game. The Warden encounters him leading an assault on Vigil's Keep, intent on capturing him/her. {{spoiler|It turns out that he was sent by the Architect to attempt a peaceful negotiation with the Warden, but the Withered gravely misunderstood his orders, leading to the attack on the keep.}}

 

* [[Noble Demon]]: He specifically says that he only kills what is necessary, and frowns on unneeded bloodshed. {{spoiler|Ironic, considering his original goals.}}

* {{spoiler|[[Poor Communication Kills]]}}

 

* {{spoiler|[[Alas, Poor Villain]]: Its hard not to pity the guy when he pathetically pleads for his life as the Baroness uses him to fuel her spell.}}

* [[The Dragon]]: To the Mother. {{spoiler|Later to the Baroness}}

* {{spoiler|[[You Have Outlived Your Usefulness]]}}

 

 

=== Tug ===

 

* [[Villainous Breakdown]]: See [[Cluster F-Bomb]]. Also, his reaction if {{spoiler|Leliana tells him that she will expose his attempts to start a war with Orlais.}}

 

=== Ariane ===

 

* [[Combat Medic]]: His default specialization is Spirit Healer, and he’s heavily invested in the generally defensive Creation school of magic.

* [[Embarrassing Nickname]]: Due to his [[Overly Long Name]], most just shortened it to "Flora." Not liking this at all, he decided to go with "Finn" instead.

** Given the implied {{spoiler|time in the lore at which Witch Hunt takes place, it's probably close to the onset of the Mage-Templar War begun in ''[[Dragon Age II]]''. Maker only knows what happens in the Fereldan Circle then....}}

* [[Gameplay and Story Segregation]]: His Ghastly Hat isn't much uglier than the hideous things mages normally wear on their heads.

{{quote|'''Finn''': "Can't forget the Esquire."}}

** You can't, it confirms that Thedas has lawyers.

** He's also a magic user who works with an organization of "Wardens", and wears clothing that he himself enchanted to protect against magic, arrows, and unsightly stains. When selected during combat, he may respond with a battle cry of [[The Dresden Files|"I am mage, hear me roar!"]]

 

=== Hurlock Vanguard ===

The player character for the Darkspawn Chronicles, a powerful Darkspawn who fights and kills most of the Dragon Age cast in an alternate universe.

 

 

=== Jerrik Dace ===

A dwarf noble who requests the Warden's help in investigating Amgarrak Thaig. Voiced by Brian Bloom.

* [[Badass]]: Brogan is mentioned to have been on the frontline of ''every'' assault into the Deep Roads in recent history.

** [[Handicapped Badass]]: He's more than a little shell-shocked after what he's been through, but there's a reason he's the last one standing in Amgarrak.
