Please tell me I'm not the only one who finds this guy totally swoonworthy after DAII. Even my hubbie thinks he's dreamy. I already had a bit of a minor crush on Cullen when I was playing as my mage warden in DAO, but DAII completely surprised me by keeping him reasonably sane after what happened to him in the previous game, and his intro-- wow. Totally expected him to go into a blind anti-mage rage. Instead he's got this thoughtful badass take charge attitude and looks like... looks like... oh my...

*cough* He... he definitely aged much much better than some of his fellow DAO veterans. That's for sure.

I have to totally agree, I had a slight hate for him after Origins, but when I saw him in DA2 i fell in love instantly, he has grown so much and is a much better person now, shame that the mage from Origins cant see him like that, im sure she would completely fall for him. Cullen is hot now, never thought I would say that lol

Hehe, let me guess, your mage was a female so you got to hear his delirious rants about how he's sure you're not real because the demons have been taking your form because he was in love with you when you were back at the Circle? I love that part. It's so sweet in the most twisted way. It's a shame the mage origin story sucks so much; that part almost makes it worth it.

When I first met Cullen in Origins, I didn't like him....he annoyed me with how he just wanted me to kill all the mages in the room. However, when I played as a mage in my 2nd playthrough I really fell for him.... I felt so bad for him....falling for someone he knows he can never have. It was also showing how human he was... you just can't control who you fall for even when you know it's wrong....After everything I just wanted to give him a big hug.

I loved him even more when I finished off DA2. He was way too awesome!!! Such a put together guy, who really knows right from wrong. Yes, he may not be the greatest fan of mages but there he was ready to go up against Meredith when she went all crazy. Even though my Hawke was a mage and defending the mages (duh XD). He fought at my side and we took down Meredith. What a man *swoons* heart

Oh geez, twisted ain't the half of it. Not only was my mage warden a kuh-niving b***h, she also just happened to be a blood mage which made Cullen's plight just that much more depressing. xD

Haha, poor Cullen, he can't win. Is there anyone he respects who doesn't turn crazy/evil?
Did he say anything about you being a blood mage? I know DA: O is actually consistent with that.

Actually now that I think about it... I think she became a bloodmage after that quest, so I don't know if there were any options. I know there's a deleted scene where Wynne accuses you at the end of the Circle quest and you end up killing everybody in the room to escape. But it was removed for plot reasons razz

Ironically my mage warden deemed Uldred's use of bloodmagic weakminded and foolish and sided with the templars xD

I thought he was adorable and bashful in Origins and I felt bad for him once the whole tower disaster. But its noce that he didn't go all Anders after that xD

When I played the mage origin I though it was cute that he had a crush on the Warden though it was sad to think that no matter what they would never be together. I really felt bad for him when you see him trapped, trying so hard to remain sane and maintain his grip on reality.

In DA2 I thought he was reasonably well adjusted considering what happened to him. Throughout the game he is reasonable, which is refreshing compared to some of his contemporaries *coughMeredithandUlriccough*.

Of course his crowning moment of awesome comes when he stands up to Meredith when it's clear she's gone bat s*** insane and fights beside you regardless of what side you picked.

Alright there is a few things I have to say about Cullen.

I am seriously surprised there isn't a hidden romantic thing with Bethany and Cullen because of the relationship (human mage hero of Ferelden) with the Hawkes and the Amells.

I was confused by his personality in da2. I pretty much thought he was going to be a POS towards mages..My jaw hit the floor over his complete change of heart.

Someone please tell me why he wasn't Knight-commander in the first place...I mean seriously talk about a hands on experience.

I 100% agree he looks pretty damn good age wise compared to everyone else..I mean they murdered Zevran/Merrill/Keeper (every single elf...) Alistair even looks like he's having a hard time with age.

Something I never understood..He dealt with Uldred so therefore everyone in the Templar hall would also know the stories..Why was there not better action taken when his recruits gets possessed? I mean come on Ferelden's Circle of Magi was a walk in the park (with darkspawn lol get it XD) compared to the mess in KirkWall.
