Warden Recruit

The PC finds the elf that the Wardens saved in Crestwood Village.

Jana: Did you see how the Grey Wardens saves me from those corpses? They’re amazing. I’m going to see if they’re looking for recruits.

Jana: The Wardens are helping people. I’d rather do that than wait for more demons to attack our village.

Jana: The Wardens only take those who prove themselves in combat. I’ve won the archery competition at the last three harvest festivals. Do you think that’s good enough for them?

Jana: Some of the Wardens are really handsome too. And they accept elves and dwarves, not just humans.

Dialogue options:

  • General: I can see the appeal.

    • Blackwall slightly approves
    • Sera slightly disapproves
    • Solas slightly disapproves
      PC: I can understand how someone might want to join the Wardens.
  • General: Why join now?
    PC: You want to join the Grey Wardens now?

  • General: Don’t join the Wardens.

    • Sera slightly approves
    • Solas slightly approves
    • Blackwall slightly disapproves (even if not in the party)
      PC: Joining the Grey Wardens is not a good idea.

Jana: Oh, Maker, you’re the Inquisitor! Um, but yes, the Wardens are heroes. They saved me from those demons, Your Worship. With all that’s happening, I’d like to help people the same way.

Dorian: (Chuckles.) By joining the Grey Wardens? You can’t think of something less lethal?

Sera: You actually want that? I mean, they’re heroes, but fighting that stuff all the time?

Blackwall: Grey Warden or no, the world needs more people with your courage.

Dialogue options:

1 - General: Solas?
Solas: Wardens will do anything to stop the Blight. There is much to admire in that commitment… but much to be wary of as well.
PC: Listen to him. Joining the Wardens isn’t the best idea right now.
Jana: Yes, Your Worship. I’m sure there’s something else I can do to help.
Jana becomes an agent of the Inquisition. [5]

2 - General: Go ahead and join.
PC: Then I wish you luck in their service.
Jana: Thank you, your worship! I’ll make you proud.
Jana will join the Grey Wardens. [5]

3 - Nobility: Don’t do it.
PC: Find another way to help people. The Wardens have problems of their own right now.
Jana: Yes, Your Worship. I’m sure there’s something else I can do to help.
Jana becomes an agent of the Inquisition. [5]

4 - General: Goodbye.
PC: Farewell. [5]

5 - Scene continues.

If Jana is told to join the Wardens:

Jana: Hopefully the next time our paths cross, I’ll be wearing the armor of a Warden!
Jana: I’ll make you proud, Your Worship.

If Jana is told not to join the Wardens:

Jana: I swear that I’ll avoid the Wardens, Inquisitor. Thank you for the warning.
Jana: Maker be with you, Inquisitor! Thank you for all your help.
