I've had Dragon Age (for the 360) since..... Wednesday or Thursday, and I've already put 10 hours and 58 minutes into it. Jeez.
Today, I spent all of my time with the game trying to get the support of the Dalish Elves for the fight against the darkspawn. One thing that I kept thinking about when talking to the village folk was how different it would be if I was a human, since the elves and humans aren't too fond of each other. I liked Zathrain's disposition and calm nature, and I was happy to be helping them. Also, his First is adorable.
Eventually, I found the werewolf hideout and fought through it. It was here that I shamefully turned the difficulty down to Casual (I was playing on Normal) because I reached a part where a ghost child runs away and a dozen or so Skeletons appear. There wasn't any hope for my team on Normal, so I calmed things down a bit on Casual. (For those curious, I'm rolling with Alistair, Morrigan, and Sten). I was relieved when I found Witherfang because it meant that this long quest was reaching its end, but in order to finish it, I had to make a difficult choice. Whitefang (in the form of a 99% naked chick) told me about Zathrain and how he placed a curse upon them. I was told to bring the leader down for a discussion. He intended to kill them, as was originally planned. The time came for me to make a decision: was I going to kill the Elf leader or stick with the mission and kill the innocent werefolves? I didn't really understand what Zathrain had done wrong, so I quickly searched the internet and read about his actions. I decided that there was no way I was going to kill the werewolves (I'm trying to play as a good little Dwarf) and chose to fight Zathrain. He went down pretty easy (again, playing on Casual >_>) and the werewolves were turned back into humans after he sacrificed himself to remove the curse. I didn't expect the Elves to be as nice as they were back on camp, since I had basically forced their leader to kill himself.
