Only thing that sucks about Dwarf Noble origin is that either failure or stupidity are your only options. Whether the Dwarf Noble PC is stupid enough to readily trust that Bhelen has no underhanded motive in "helping" them, or refuses to listen to what he tells them and plays the smart politician who decides to wait and see how things develop, Trian ends up dead, everyone sides and testifies falsely against them and the PC gets exiled into the Deep Roads. The 'everybody' includes a man you could have fought in an honorable fight in a Proving the day before, and even selflessly given the reward for his valor in battle... ouch.

 

That why I side with Harrowmont in the Orzammar quest later on when I play a Dwarf Noble just so I can get revenge and kill that power glutton snake Bhelen for utterly destroying my life. That son of a gun.

 

At least he is not the son fo a swamp water filled uterus. :thumbsup:

Probably stated our reasons above! Like I said, it's the one Origin where you literally lose everything and have nothing to gain by joining the Wardens. Dwarf Noble comes close, but you get to live for another 30 years as compared to 3 days (or hours), which is a plus.

 

Minor point: Plus in Awakenings when you meet Delilah Howe -

 

"He was always trying to set me up with the stuck up Cousland boy."

 

"That Cousland boy is right here."

 

"Oops, sorry. Awkward!"

Those are pretty minor, I've never had Loghain as my father-in-law, I've always had Alistair execute him ;) I don't imagine Loghain would enjoy the thought that the person who forced him to drink darkspawn blood, lose all of his titles and riches is now married to his daughter and "forging the moaning statue" with her and now the king of Ferelden. How nice.
