If the alliance is continued, the Ben-Hassrath aids in operations to uncover Venatori plots, from foiling an attempt to attack Denerim with a fireship to dismantling Venatori spy-networks throughout Thedas. The chantry goes too far and the templars are given too much leeway and can (and do) abuse the mages under their care without impunity. The player has many ways of addressing the situation, but one lets Connor appear in Dragon Age: Inquisition in Redcliffe along with all of the other "rebel" Mages. There are horror stories of them being abused by their Templar guards, forgotten in jail cells, and turned Tranquil. Lucius has become a willing accomplice of Corypheus and lets an Envy demon ally of the darkspawn magister masquerade as him in his absence. [6].

Cole says that the bodies of the templars become incomplete and try to connect to something older and bigger than they are.

If the Inquisitor recruits the Mages: Ritual imbibing of the lyrium is meant to stave off the hunger pangs yet it is a double edge sword since the adverse effects, both in the addiction's withdrawal symptoms and satiating it with the continuous habit, gets worse overtime with prolong imbibing. There is a Mage-route exclusive agent if you care about that. So, why not choose them?

They aid in closing the Breach. The Templars at Hasmal request the Inquisition's aid in relocating the loyalist mages at their circle to the Inquisition for fear of the local populace attacking them and later ally with the Inquisition in the conflict with Corypheus.[8].

The templars are snorting red lyrium, and you can stop them, but the mages end up snorting lyrium instead so its still a problem, maybe more so because mages are inherently more destructive. Though Fiona says she got a strange feeling at the mention of their supposed meeting, regardless of whether it really occurred, their present circumstances have changed. Location But the celebrations were cut short as Corypheus attacks Haven. Poor Fiona is stuck between selling herself and her people to Tevinter and/or being saved by the Inquisition due to their need for protection from the Templars. [14] This is done by a unique method of reinforcing the reality and immutability of the world. Mages versus Templars As a returning player, I'm more interested in seeing Redcliffe again, and its a part of the larger Hinterlands so I can just stumble there, as opposed to Adamant. With the Mage-Templar War wreaking havoc across Thedas, Samson was able to rally some of the floundering Templar Order and was made their general. Knight-Captain Carroll attempts to re-establish contact between the Red Templars and the Freemen but is lured into a trap by the Inquisitor and is slain.

I lean more towards, hey, mages is people too, and being generally anti-Chantry having their claws in everything. The Venatori attempt to establish a new supply line for red lyrium in Antiva however their operation is destroyed thanks to the involvement of both the Inquisition and the Antivan Crows.

He destroys a Chantry.

The Red Templars establish a hidden port on the Storm Coast in north-eastern Ferelden to enable rapid transport across the Waking Sea. He is not afraid to ask questions of his superiors and does not give as much into fearmongering as some of his peers. Well, there are five reasons to choose either faction. Varric said he knew nothing of the Champion's fate, but said he highly doubts that Hawke is dead. [13], The Ferelden Monarchy offered the rebel mages sanctuary in the Arling of Redcliffe. It's a weird quirk of mine, but if Alistair is king in your world state, I say go with mages because if you know the history between him and Grand Enchanter Fiona it makes their interaction in the game somewhat tragic. I would love to know what you all regularly side with. With the latest attempt at a peaceful resolution destroyed at the Temple of Sacred Ashes by the Breach's explosion, the war continues to rage across Thedas. Contributing earlier events include the 9:37 rebellion in Kirkwall, a city state in the southern Free Marches, and the dissolution of the College of Enchanters in 9:38 after the rejected motion to abolish the Circles.

Most people don't remember the Templar Order as it once was.

The go-to source for comic book and superhero movie fans.

I'm at the part of the story where I need to choose. And there's no happy retirement either. Choosing between the Mages and the Templars is the real decision. She and Leliana then invoke the late Justinia V's writ to restore the Inquisition, independent of Chantry control, for the purpose of finding the true perpetrators behind the Breach.

On the other side is Fiona, who actually is first introduced in the Dragon Age books.

That is just how it is in Mage Towers. The Demon Imshael somehow ingratiates himself with the Red Templars at Suledin Keep and supervises the project to infect Giants with red lyrium which successfully results in several corrupted Giants. Rogue Templars supplied by lyrium smugglers[20], attack and rape Hinterland peasants they deem mage sympathizers or hiding apostates[21] while spiteful mages spurn Fiona's refuge in Redcliffe and may attack anyone.[22]. Before the player even knows much about the situation, they are forced to help either the Mages or the Templars in Dragon Age: Inquisition. By continuing to use this site, you agree to the updated policies documented at, {{client.users[message.memberFromId].displayName}}. and go pick up the Templars.

Plus, siding with the templars gets you no characters (that i can recall), whereas mages get Alistair's mom.

Outside the Circles, templars are responsible for hunting malificar, apostates, abominations, and demons.

The Divine, Justinia V, sought to use her position to reform the Circle of Magi and thereby bring an end to the troubles, but was hindered by both the templars and the mages, culminating with Jeannot, one of the White Spire's senior enchanters, attempting to assassinate her in 9:39 Dragon, despite her mage-sympathetic views. Maybe spoilers". † = killed in action(†) = possibly killed in action Templars are considered by the common folk to be the saviors and holy warriors of Thedas, protecting the world from the dangers of magic unchecked. So, it stands to reason that siding with the people who are not susceptible to possession is the wisest move to make regarding lore and the world of Thedas. The only way to save him is to choose the Templars. I also like Calpernia as a character much more than Samson. Though siding with the Mages introduces the player to the fabulous and sassy Dorian Pavus more quickly, siding with the Templars gives the player insight into a very interesting boss battle against an Envy demon. Though Vivienne might disagree. It is confirmed that lyrium does have effective benefits for templars, as it builds a resistance to magic in them over time, and is needed for their abilities, such as being able to shut off a mage's abilities entirely.

Knight-Vigilant Given the difficult choices templars must make in the course of their duty, they must be unswervingly loyal to the Order and maintain an emotional distance from the plight of their charges. The Red Templars then replace the Venatori as Corypheus' army during the attack on Haven.

Templars take vows upon knighthood, but these do not include vows of chastity (although some elect to take those as well).

The attempt almost succeeded, stopping the Breach from growing, but not sealing it. The Inquisitor and Dorian were able to use the future Alexius' time amulet to return to the present where they capture and subdue the present Alexius. He’s a great character, the ideal for what a Templar should be. Cullen and Josephine are against trying to recruit the mage rebels, but Cassandra and Leliana are adamant to get them. It's worth it to see both sides of the storyline, but after the one play through, I sides with the Mages every time. [10] After the vigil, the knight's life is changed.

Big fear factor.

Templars are officially deemed a force of defenders by the Chantry. The ones who didn't join the Venatori either ran off or were killed. Yet that solidarity began to fracture when Fiona made the controversial decision to ally with Magister Alexius.[26].

Right now I'm trying to determine what makes sense when it comes to deciding whether to side with the Mages or Templars.

I always choose mages. Her favorite games include Dragon Age, Pokémon, Final Fantasy XIV, Team Ico games, Ōkami, and RPG maker horror games.

I know Bioware wants to push this narrative of "both sides are equally bad/grey" but it just doesn't work when one of those groups has absolute power over the other. [25] Some rebel mages fled the Circles only reluctantly but followed the mage rebellion since they believed they'd have been safer with their fellow mages. But it introduces some compelling lore implications and the build-up to the fight is much more interesting than the nightmare of walking through a red lyrium prison where all of the player's friends are dying or dead. Gordian, a senior Venatori operative, infiltrates the Imperial Army and begins to encourage desertions among the troops of both the claimants to the Orlesian throne. I wish we could recruit him either way.

Then Dorian gets the dramatic entrance he probably secretly enjoys.

A bit of a tragic character, Anders has a spirit of Justice inside him. Alexius pulls out the time amulet to attempt to go back before the Inquisitor interfered with the Elder One's ritual at the Temple of Sacred Ashes, but Dorian interrupts him, accidentally sending both himself and the Inquisitor one year into the future.
