Dragon:

Have a warrior with shield wall and lots of healing potions. After a while the dragon goes down really.
Make sure you are always at least at 90% health, that way his grab attack won't kill you.
That is of course you have a decent level by the time you fight it. I did with 17-18.
My own party died instantly pretty much but my warrior 1v1'd it pretty easily.

Just finished all the origin stories. Pretty interesting overall, but human noble is still my favorite followed by dwarf noble and dalish elf (mainly for the dialogue). Mage and the other 3 weren't all that bad either. City elf just seemed to have endless fighting in it...

I feel the same way about Dalish , but to each their own.

Nearing the end of my second playthrough.. have to say I am severely disappointed this go around.

Ever since my first go through, the point where you rescue Anora really hooked me in. Her betrayal really made me wanna gut her, I just risked my hide, killed the Arl and sprung her - then gave her a chance to show Loghain's commander that her boss was into some crazy stuff and she betrays me!

As Zevron so elegantly put it in this go through "I'm still waiting for a reason not to slit her throat and dump her body in the river. I've yet to hear it, by the way." Even after I told her I'm not supporting her (as i did last time) She just gave me frowny face and said she'd back Alistair if it must come to that. Of course.. I have my doubts and fully expect her to betray me at the Landsmeet. I am.. sorely itching to give this woman what she truly deserves, but the game is just not letting me do so. Like it's standing there wagging its finger disapprovingly.

Can anyone tell me if I'm gonna have the chance to kill her? Please say yes.
