mojodajojo Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 Origins could definitely use another rogue companion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frakle Posted September 11, 2011 Share Posted September 11, 2011 After much thought, nah. He's too arrogant to be a GW (at least in my opinion). Though his intentions are good, he wouldn't have been a great GW. I would say he's more cocky than arrogant. Apparently quite a few Grey Wardens have had shady backgrounds. It certainly is no barrier in the Dwarf Commoner origin. For all we know, Duncan himself may have been a mass murderer in his former life. In daveth's favor, he at least had his set on straight about what it meant to be a Grey Warden. I could see him fitting Duncan's "anything to win" attitude quite well. As a companion NPC, I imagine that Daveth would end up being a lot like a strictly hetero Zevran. I like Zev, but ONE of them is plenty. Although it'd be interesting to see how Daveth and Morrigan got along over the long haul. I doubt he'd try to flirt with HER! Given his fear of magic, it may have even complicated romances with female mage PCs. Duncan was a thief before he was a GW, and he killed the person who invoked the RoC (Genevieve)'s fiancee. So he was a murderer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tarie Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 I would have loved to see Daveth live through the joining. And if the plot calls for his death then fine, he can die in some grand GW sacrifice way to allow the rest of the party to escape certain doom. say... one of those sideline attacks that happens when going from place to place. Or shoot, give Zev a bone and let him kill -one- warden! (and as a side-bar anyone else wish that the other GW's had been there even as silent observers to the Joining? Humm?)

trevrep Posted October 9, 2011 Share Posted October 9, 2011 I liked Daveth better than Ser Jory. However, I wasn't particularly bothered with either of them being killed off. Ser Jory was far too cowardly to be a party member. If he craps himself at the thought of Darkspawn, how would he have reacted when we ran into Flemeth's dragon form or the Broodmother? Don't get me wrong, I can sympathise with Ser Jory, and his reaction was reasonable for a young human being with a wife and baby on the way, but at the end of the day the game is about heroes and he didn't have the heart. Notice how neiter of them can level up either? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheburator987 Posted November 5, 2011 Share Posted November 5, 2011 Really too bad abouth Daveth.Could have used him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeoKingArthur Posted November 19, 2011 Share Posted November 19, 2011 I prefer to have people lived.. I never liked death and i certainly don't like people die just because "they deserve it". So personally, I think the Warden should have taken the joining FIRST... That way, the warden will survive right? That will give Daveth and Jory the confidence of taking the Joining. Probably Jory won't be as coward as he did in the canon. With the warden survives, Jory should come in second and believing that he will survive since the warden survives, he'll drink the blood anyway. And my guess is may have survived and become a grey warden. since he lives, he'll be more confident in fighting darkspawn. Daveth..... well he's screwed. So yea, Jory's cowardice is just out of his common sense and his ignorant to the grey warden's necessity. He believes that Duncan is a psychopath who makes the joining an excuse to poison the trio to death and that Alistair is his accomplice. If only the warden did the joining first. He would be more comfortable in taking the joining and there would be no need for a stabbity stab stab and pathetic death. Also, it won't be as dramatic as it should. Hahahaha.

ywch1234 Posted December 6, 2011 Share Posted December 6, 2011 Maybe the developers want him to survive in the first placeBut then they came up with this Zevran ideaSo they decided to kill Daveth and save the spot for Zevran Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CadenceOfHerLastBreath Posted January 1, 2012 Share Posted January 1, 2012 (edited) Jory makes sense as an expendable character, he was barely able to walk ten feet without wetting himself. However, I do think that Duncan could have simply let him go. He obviously wasn't going to pose an actual threat to anyone. He was a quivering mess poised to flee, and drew his sword only on the fear of being drawn on. I did think Daveth would survive the taint though. I was surprised and disappointed when he died.
