History: Alistair on the Dragon Age wiki
Warden Choices:
- Recruited everyone, including Shale, and all companion quests done; Alistair hardened, Leliana not, Flemeth “dead”
- Saved the Mages from the Rite of Annulment, recruiting both Mages and Templars
- Supported Bhelen for Orzammar’s throne and assisted Shale and Paragon Caridin in destroying the Anvil of the Void
- Brokered peace between the Dalish and the werewolves, breaking the curse

- Alistair, Wynne and Leliana traveled through Haven, the ruined temple complex and the Gauntlet to reach the Urn of Sacred Ashes to revive Eamon from his near-death
- During the Landsmeet, supported Alistair as king, winning most of the nobles to their side without Anora’s support; let Alistair duel Loghain and execute him as a traitor.
- Took Morrigan up on the offer of the ritual and convinced Alistair to sleep with her to complete it, after some serious discussion
Personality: Alistair Theirin is a man who has been sheltered for most of his life. His life has not been easy or even kind in many ways due to the whispered implications of his scandalous birth. That’s not to say that he hasn’t known kindness. He has, from many people in different forms. However, he hasn’t let the way that others treat him sour his outlook on life for the most part. He is a man who came from near-obscurity to be King of Ferelden.
Somehow, he’s made it to adulthood with most of his naivety intact. Jokes about sex go over his head, even when initiated by party members that are fond of making lewd remarks and joking about one’s prowess, i.e. Zevran and Oghren. He finds joy in strange and occult things, despite the fact that he’s been exposed to mages of varying degrees since childhood. He has little sense when it comes to women and often says things that insult them, unintentionally. However, when called on it, he tries to apologize, with some very amusing results at times. Perhaps the fact that he has remained so “pure” can be attributed to growing up in the Chantry and trained to be a Templar from a young age.
Alistair is like a loyal little puppy dog. Eager to please those that treat him kindly, even a little, Alistair will go the distance to show that he can be trusted. However, that doesn’t mean that he trusts everyone. People who are duplicitous, who come off as having ulterior motives, are those that he finds it hard to trust completely. Once his trust is earned, it is unshakable. He could even be convinced to do things that he might not agree with originally, especially if he loves that person. But if a person crosses a line, he won’t forgive them. Loghain Mac Tir was responsible for the death of his half-brother and his mentor and that is something that Alistair could never forgive.
Because of the way he was raised, Alistair has little value in himself as a person. He’s always been the bastard son of the great King Maric Theirin and a scullery maid. Those around him either sucked up to him or treated him like he thought he was too good for mundane tasks. As such, he found it hard to make friends because he wasn’t accepted in either the nobility or the lower class. When he is talked down to by others, he takes it because he’s learned that no matter what he does, he’s not important. He’s not legitimate so what he wants doesn’t matter in the grand scheme of things. This outlook colors everything that he does and a great deal of what he says. This is why Wynne cautions Riona about her relationship with Alistair at the beginning. She sees that Alistair is the type of person who would give the world to the person who makes him feel he has worth outside of his blood.
It is only through his experiences with Riona and their companions that he finds his own self-worth. It’s only when he’s at his lowest that he finds value in being just Alistair. And when he’s thrust forward to take the crown of Ferelden in their darkest hour, he reluctantly does so as it’s his duty, his birthright, and his greatest honor to step up to the plate and serve the country his own father liberated from the Orlesians. He finds the inner strength to lead and inspire those around him to fight to take back Ferelden from the Darkspawn, to make a future for their families. With Riona at his side, facing all the challenges ahead—Archdemon, the nobility, marriage—together, he knows that he can do anything now.
Abilities: Alistair is a warrior with leanings towards the Templar and Champion specializations. Templars use lyrium to increase their abilities to fight and control mages, especially Malificar and the undead minions they can summon. Champions have ways of shouting to increase the attack of their allies and lowering the attacks of their enemies. As such, he is skilled in two-handed weapons and one-handed weapons and shields. He can use all levels of armor from iron to dragonbone
