I'm trying to have this discussion objectively, you're making this really hard. Seeing the dangers of being a mage isn't stockholm syndrome it's a point of view Only what I saw in the Calenhad Tower, that miserable girl in the Circle Chantry, who prayed for forgiveness, because she felt guilty and cursed. And Jowan's fear from the tranquility, and Owen... THIS is the sin, what the Chantry committed against them. Yes, magic is dangerous, but to imprison innocents and make them a zombie, if they fear, is never a solution. I was quite objective. I don't know who Owen is and I too disagree with tranquility, it's not the point. There are lots of things wrong about the Circle but not everything. I don't want to see people becoming zombies or other things you said but you disregard that magic also can be pretty dangerous that's all. Why do you assume I liked the situation as it were, I have no idea. There are lots of people who use blood magic and sacrifices to achive their personal ambitions too, letting them loose isn't also the right answer because there is no fully right aswer

Blood Magic isn't infectious I thought the dialogue option didn't show up if you weren't a blood mage too...must be misremembering. Edit: I'm a dumbass, that's the option to "recruit" her into your army (though she never shows up).

If you have Zevran in the party, you can also spare/recruit her. Is more cosmetic than anything, though. RP-wise, she joins the mage army. He is also your teacher regardless of your opinion on the Circle. All I'm saying is there are other ways to look at it Yes, Irving seems a decent man, but still an enemy, until the character in the prison. Later he's not an enemy anymore. Yes, you can see him this way, with some Stockholm-syndrome. Sadly, this is so common in the Circle. Those who are being kidnapped too young or as an orphan (Wynne), so easily can feel the Circle as home, and the First Enchanter as mother/father. But who later taken to the Circle, probably never will be able to accept this fate (Fiona, Anders). As for the Irving stuff, we have to take into account that Irving, for the Mage Warden, is his/her father figure (is really implied in game that Irving raised and later trained the Mage Warden). So, helping Jowan is like betraying the only person who really cares about you in the Circle. As for the Circles being prisons? Yeah, they are prisons. But blaming Irving for that? He didn't created the Circles (that was Drakon, Ameridan-super buddy), neither went to capture the children mages. He is a victim as well (because he is a mage). And he even helped Jowan a lot until he cannot do more (he knew, for example, that Jowan was banging Lily, something forbidden in Circles by Chantry law, and said nothing; and Greagoir outright said that Irving was buying time to let Jowan escape). And don't make me start with Anders. Suffice to saw that Anders didn't ended up Tranquil or killed because Irving convinced the Templars that Anders was a good person, seven times... (according to World of Thedas 2).

(according to World of Thedas 2). Yes, Irving also a victim, I don't blame him. I said: he's a decent man. But I don't forget, how I would like to found my Surana's phylactery too, and go away from this terrible place, that father-figure or not, I felt Jowan as friend and Irving as an enemy – a nice enemy, but still. (This was my first DA game, when released, and played without spoilers). As I said, this "guilty", "cursed" girl, Jowan's fear and the closed doors were good enough to assess the situation and to the desire to destroy the whole system. Sadly, in this game this was not an option... (My Surana wasn't a blood mage, simple I don't saw, that this worth it.) Not everyone who played the mage origin felt similar as me about the Circle? I'm sure, that anyone played as casteless dwarf, hated the caste system... or anyone accepted? Or someone, who played as city elf, can accept the "JUS PRIMAE NOCTIS"? They didn't tranquilize Anders, because in the "better" Circles the Tranquility was not a punishment (because this would absolutely law-break – Meredith was a law-breaker, Gregoir's probably not). Anders spent a year in solitary confinement.

Anders spent a year in solitary confinement. Yeah, after his sixth escape attempt from the Tower. At that point not even Irving couldn't helping him anymore. However, some templars were planning to severely punish Anders for his frequent escape attempts, and Tranquility was one of the options. But Irving convinced them that it wasn't necessary. Irving even created the rule of "good students can go outdoors for a few hours" in an attempt to help Anders get accustomed into the Circle.

They did idiot things, but what HE did? It was a bit disappointment, but at least something happened. I didn't expect a Chantry-destroy from a game titled: Inquisition... The Chantry needed a massive reform. I like the way, how Leliana wants to rebuild. Cassandra not as progressive, but at least not corrupt. We'll see...

Everyone in Inquisition did stupid things. The Wardens, Orlais, Ferelden, the Qunari, the Chantry, the mages, the Templars, Tevinter... Heck, even Corypheus. He is Willy the Coyote of Dragon Age. Beyond killing the Divine and being killed himself in the most anti-climatic way possible, he accomplished nothing in the game. And even the Inquisition in the end became stupid. Only Eggman was always right. But the writers capitalized in making us hate the Wardens, in brandishing them as evil. They kill Archdemons to save the world "are you insane!! That'se evil!! Saving life from certain death is the hideous thing you can do!" They were either mind controlled (mages) or magically induced to mass hysteria, then you're evil (and completely responsible of your acts, even if mind-controlled). Every soding Warden in Orlais (and Ferelden, as seen when your encounter Alistair/Loghain/Stroud) is hearing the Calling, a supernatural evil song that tells your "hey, you're going to bolster the darkspawn hordes soon... or die. Choose one", at the same thing. If you discover that not only you're going to die in a few weeks, but also all your comrades in the whole country, what will you do? Is expected and completely normal that you do something stupid. But hey, that's evil. "But the Chantry and Orlais were stupid because they were naturally stupid, why they aren't evil? Egg: Being stupid is natural for you, pathetic lifeforms. If you commit stupidities for the sake of it, even if that end in war and the killing of thousands of innocents, that is completely good stuff. But if you're mind-controlled or magically induced to stupidity, then you're evil. By the way, I'm going to kill every living thing in this planet that is not a elf by my standards. Most altruistic action ever." ... Sorry, I had to let that out of my system.

Sten and Zevran are worse than that. At least even if you spare the woman she doesn't follow you 24/24 hours (Assuming a day in Thedas is made of 24 hours)so she isn't a costant danger for you unlike those two.Honestly most things in this game are a gamble unless you metagame. -Follow Morrigan blindly to her Mother at the beginning of the game is a gamble. -Go into the hearth of the deeproads to be a bait for the traps of Caridin just to make a crown for a maggot dwarf is a gamble...and so on. Basically only into a game everything end up being a success no matter what you do. Alright, but what do you think of the situation we're discussing here? Letting her go is a gamble. She was defeated in combat and her will was weakened as a result of it,with all the demons in the tower you may never know if she turns into an abomination. You have the option to recruit her,but I don't remember to have seen her among the mages allies,she just vanished; maybe she lied and she just wanted to use the Warden in order to flee.

I guess she just lay low, joins the war effort (if you sided with the mages), and then flees during the cinematic of the last battle, lol There's specific dialogue where the Warden suggests joining the war effort, and she takes a little bit of convincing. Not much, but enough that I doubt it would occur to her as a realistic option in playthroughs where the Warden doesn't suggest it as one. Can you even spare her without being a blood mage yourself? If you're talking about the dialogue I mentioned above, you need to be a blood mage, an assassin, or a reaver to get that option. So, if you're a rogue yes, if you're a mage no, and if you're a warrior it depends on how you define "blood mage."

The doors are shut, though. She won't escape anyway. But if she became an abomination, she could reach the mages in the first floor who are no longer protected by Wynne's barrier and... oh no. Great. Now I need to go back 3 hours in the game. Elgar'nan, I hate this woman.

The mage apprentices in the first floor are alive and well regardless of what you do with her. The only way they can die is if you unleash the Shah Wyrd, the unique rage demon kept locked in Kinloch Hold for centuries (and keeper of the powerful great sword Yusaris). The demon can kill them in battle if you do nothing to protect them. Since that mage is no Shah Wyrd, then the apprentices are safe. She even didn't attacked the most immediate target in the second floor: a Tranquil who can't even fight back (Owain). I don't see her a threat. Even if she is "truly evil, muhahaha!*, it seems intelligent enough to not cause problems during Broken Circle.

I don't think I ever spared that mage, come to think about it.
As far as Loghain goes, have gone either way although I usually execute him.
I never had much problem conscripting Sten.
Now Zevran is the one where I feel like it doesn't make a lot of sense to recruit him, but I do it anyway due to metagaming.

The life's dangerous. Killing everyone who can caused danger is just foolish aspiration (not mentioned, how cruel), especially in DA, where almost everyone can be dangerous... And don't need to undertaken the responsibility for every people's possible crimes and lies. Summa summarum: to kill this woman is reasonable and good decision, leave her alive a merciful decision, and according my opinion, also good, and neither is evil or morally questionable.

It is that fucking blood mage woman at the beginning of Broken Circle. There are a lot of things to consider: 1. You need to decide whether the end justifies the means here.2. How responsible she is for the chaos considering that she didn't intend it to turn out that way.3. Deciding if your character believes she is being honest.4. The pragmatic side of this. If you let her go, there is no guarantee that she won't make things worse and continue to aid her fellow blood mages in their plan.But let's assume the Warden believes she won't. There still is the matter of her escape (I know she doesn't escape, but I avoid metagaming).Here is how it could play out. 4.1 She realizes the doors are shut, waits for them to be opened after the whole mess is dealt with and surrenders to the templars.
4.2 She finds a way out without needing to get past the templars, but I doubt it.
4.3 She tries to fight her way out of the tower and Greagor blames the Warden for it, ultimately resulting in the loss of an ally.
Without metagaming, it is a bit of a gamble.
The blood woman in the circle (my Amell's feeling on it)
1. The woman was a blood mage and she could've been playing on my sympathy to escape from the Circle and kill more people. I'd rather say it was a justified killing, considering I didn't know her well enough and didn't trust her enough.
2. I presume she's killed plenty of Templars using her Blood Magic, so I'd assume she was responsible for plenty of chaos in the Circle.
3. Doubt she was honest. She's a blood mage. No Blood Mage is truly honest about their intent.
4. True. Or spawn more abominations with her feenish art.
There is a reason why I killed her, so that she wouldn't do that. But even if she was alive, wouldn't they just make her a tranquil? They were planning to do so to Jowan after all, considering they thought of him "weak".

In DA yes, most of the times there isn't an imprison option only the kill option to finish off the threats.This mage was part of the conspiracy of blood mages of Uldred so she is a threat,and since there is no imprison option,the kill option is the one that works better for all those who don't want to take any risk because of her who was an enemy up until that moment.If the writers of these games will have provided more imprisonment options(I wanted that especially for Alistair at Landsmeet) I would have taken those,but this mage in any case isn't allowed with me to walk free like that after all the issues that she caused. The life's dangerous. Killing everyone who can caused danger is just foolish aspiration (not mentioned, how cruel), especially in DA, where almost everyone can be dangerous... And don't need to undertaken the responsibility for every people's possible crimes and lies. Summa summarum: to kill this woman is reasonable and good decision, leave her alive a merciful decision, and according my opinion, also good, and neither is evil or morally questionable. That's only your opinion of course not a truth. Facts tells me that this woman is a criminal who supported Uldred and that didn't thought twice before to attack me as well (without any reason whatsoever,since they jump immediatly at the fight) . She is a proved criminal so letting her go just like that it isn't an option. Life is less dangerous if I kill these enemies or put them in jail.
