IMPORTING THE EVENTS OF
DRAGON AGE : ORIGINS
A few minutes into Varric’s retelling, his interrogator demands more specifics. Did Hawke truly look as Varric
describes? And how was Hawke connected to the events of the Fifth Blight, which ravaged Ferelden until a Grey
Warden slew the archdemon atop a fortress in Denerim?
At this point, you can import a save from Dragon Age: Origins to ensure that Varric’s story remains consistent
with your own recollection of history. Alternately, choose one of three pre-written histories that represent
common paths through Origins.
You can import any save from Dragon Age: Origins, the Dragon Age: Origins Awakening expansion, the
Golems of Amgarrak stand-alone downloadable content, or the Witch Hunt stand-alone downloadable content,
regardless of whether you completed the game with that save. If you did not complete the game, Varric will
presume that the remaining events of Dragon Age: Origins match the rumors he has most often heard.
CONVERSATIONS
When it’s Hawke’s turn to speak in a conversation, you see a dialogue wheel that offers several options for what
Hawke can say. The options presented often vary based on your choices earlier in the game.
The text you see is a short paraphrase of the longer line that Hawke will speak if you pick that option. Each
paraphrase is accompanied by an icon in the middle of the wheel, indicating the type of response or the tone in
which it is intended.
ICONS
