What did you do today in DA? [Spoilers]

Being born casteless is being born without rights and pretty much no chance of making an honest living. But if you play your cards "right" you can make a killing, making your living in Orzammars dusttown. 'Scuse the pun. So that's is pretty much my story. Never learned to keep my mouth shut got me into a fair number of fights growing up. Having a drunk for a mother got me smacked around a fair number of times as well. I've learned the hard way and here I am working as an enforcer for dustowns number one crime lord while my lovely sister is being used by the same scumbag to snare som nobleman through dirty bedroom tactics. We're both selling ourselves, trying to survive, trying to look out for each other.

Leske here is probably my only other friend.



So one day we got this rather simple job really. The boss, ugly-face Beraht, told us make sure some warrior Everd won a fight in the warrior caste's "glory proving".



We were supposed to slightly drug Everds opponent. Only when we got Everd was more than a little stoned. The stone-for-brains was stoned out of his brains. Sorry.



Well one thing led to another and in order to try and fix it I donned his armor and tried to impersonate him in the fight. As you probably can imagine it didn't end well. I guess that is how it is when you're caught between a rock and a hard place.

I won the fights of course.



But a "brand" - i.e. casteless don't go playing with the other castes without severe repercussions. Especially not humiliating the warrior caste in their own playground. Sod them. I guess I'm lucky they didn't just arrow me down were I stood.

There was a grey warden there. Some fancy guy called Duncan. Leske dare me to speak to him. Leske's always been on the losing side of our little chicken races. Anyway apparently I managed to impress this Duncan.



Yeah, like I said there would be repercussions but not the one I was expecting. I was clubbed down. Not before I took a few more of the with me of course. Me and Leske ended up in the dungeons. Only it was Berahts dungeon. And his plan was pain and torture for me and Leske. For no other reason than his amusement. My sister Rica he planned to give to his crew for gang rape and more. He should have blamed Everd but noooo. Like I said, sod them. I put on my feminine charm and boy was our guard in for a suprise.



I broke his neck against the bars. We busted out of there. I gave Beraht a long overdue shave on the way.



Alas we didn't get far and was apprehended by the guards. They were probably going to have me and Leske executed but the Duncan guy was there for some reason as well. He wanted me to join the Grey wardens. Some fancy schmancy human fighter caste I gather. Well it sure beats losing ones head. So that's it. Exiled from Orzammar (never was accepted there anyway). I don't know what they did to Leske. He always had a way of landing on his feet though. Rica was out of immediate danger - I think. She had this nobleman she was playing.

Duncan took me to this ruined city called Ostagar to fight Darkspawn! That's my game! We met the human king on the way. I had to bite my tongue but remained civil and deferent to him. He actually seemed like a nice person - for a noble.



So here I am, at Ostagar. Duncan want's me to find this other young grey warden called Alistair. What a name. Probably some noble brat. We'll see.
