Jowan: Hero is a Good Look on You

Sure. Good idea.

Copied from another thread:

It never occurred to me to feel betrayed by Jowan, and I resented the game trying to make me sound that way every time I talked to him.

Jowan doesn't want to be made Tranquil, unlike some of the other apprentices who hated their magic. He fears it greatly, which is why he tries to get a leg up, skill wise, by using blood magic. This was poorly thought out, obviously. Since he doesn't know the Harrowing is sprit only, The blood magic would not have helped even if he'd gone unnoticed.

But how did he learn it? Well, half the Circle is practicing blood magic under the encouragement of Uldred. But somehow, he's the one that ot caught. was he thrown under the bus to keep their cover? Or was he just that bad at being sneaky?

During my conversation with Jowan, my Surana got to say, paraphrasing, the line that "blood magic isn't all that big a deal" during the conversation where he asks for help. Surana was unsure wanted more information, so she old Jowan she'd think about it and went to Irving.

when Surana approached Irving about it he was super ambiguous about the proof and merely declared that the decision had been made and would not be unmade. Matter settled, no argument from Surana could sway him despite er passionate pleas to not harm her friend. Regardless of whether or not Jowan was a blood mage, she did not wish him made Tranquil.

Resolute, Surana went back to Jowan and said she'd help him. Tranquility is evil. Either kill them or leave them alone.

Jowan did not lie about the threat on his life, and that's all I cared about. Surana was happy to see him leave the Circle; she wanted to be gone as well.

Surana told him to make another stab at freedom when she let him out of the cell in Redcliffe. And when Surana found him later in the countryside, she swelled with happiness. told him "redemption suited him" when she saw him for the last time. There he was, being amazing, a prime example of how Tranquility would have been a terrible judgement.

And Lily poor Lily, regrets not having run off with him even years later as per her journal entries. I'd like to think they found each other during the Mage Rebellion.

One of the many deceivers of DAO,Jowan the Blood mage,I despise blood magic.

Blood magic is the art of demons and should be eradicated alongside all the mages who practice it.Law and order demands it.

I wasn't very fond of this character and I've considered him a criminal and in part responsible for the zombie horde in Redclieffe.

As for the Blood magic in general I've always considered malevolent in nature since it's gains always demand a cost and seem to attract the malevolent spirits of the fade.

Tool or not he was the one who poisoned Eamon for some gains he hoped to achieve so he is a criminal for the law.Morrigan wanting a blood mage free isn't an indicator of anything in regard of her behaviour
other than her sympathizing for what she saw on Jowan at the time...i guess the power of a blood mage?

I think my Amell took pity on Jowan when he was made tranquil. She saved him from death by venatori, those tranquil killers they are. I hope Fiona's happy with what she allowed to occur. Pfft.

(Has to rage at Fiona whenever thinking about tranquil in general)

Okay, so I'm indifferent about Jowan to be honest. He wasn't my Amell's best friend. He was just a friend of her's. Nothing important.

Finally anyone mentioned! Blood magic opponents do not consider, that the Chantry's Circle system based on blood magic...

I think that similar as the Phylactery system, or? 

I like this:

"After the Circles of Ferelden rebelled, the Hero of Ferelden disappeared along with the blood mage Jowan. Jowan, whose life had been spared after the newly appointed Warden-Commander had taken him under his protection, swearing that he would be responsible for the mage.
Most people claimed that Jowan had the Warden-Commander under a spell and had forced the hero to disappear with them, but some spoke of darker things. People with more knowledge of the Grey Wardens spoke of the Hero of Ferelden turning to bloodmagic, since no warden can kill an archdemon and live to tell the tale."

Need to let him free, before the warden go into the castle, this is the one way to save him, in the Circle probably he will be tranquil.
