The former lead writer for the Dragon Age series, David Gaider, has been giving fresh insight into a bunch of the RPG series' beloved characters, and has admitted that he "probably shouldn't have" written the one new follower he did for Dragon Age 2, even though "it'll make his fans mad" to say it.
Sorry, Fenris fans, but it's your favorite elven warrior. In a new thread on Bluesky, Gaider explains that when creating the RPG series' followers, he would let the other writers pick who they wanted to write first. However, Fenris didn't seem particularly popular. "In this instance, it meant I was left with the angry elven warrior character who nobody else appeared to want," he says. "It should have been my first clue that something was up. The second was how the artists had zero clue what to do with him."
