an old disco holdover
*shows up to dragon age discourse about a decade and a half later because i'm no longer able to keep myself from shutting up* sebastian needed about triple the material he got even by dlc companion standards because the common misconception he's badly-written is not only false but doubly aided by the fact his quest ends before you even meet him (or indeed WHEN you meet him and tell him you killed his family's murderers). he's tame by the rest of da2's party's standards but he's consistent in his characterization throughout the story. it was a missed opportunity not to have him butt heads with anders past the surface-level banter when the game ends with him possibly leaving for good if you side with blondie, swearing to hunt him and hawke down. what do you mean the police will be here any minute now, i knocked on your window first this time
The thing that I noted with Sebastian is he's written as from a region that's pretty heavily coded and inspired by medieval Scotland, and that keeps with Sebastian's biggest trait being his piety and his flaw being wrath. Like he's a nice polite boy who doesn't so much get angry as transform into a gut-ripping zealot who will burn the world down to see your head on a spike.
Honestly, I think the game should've emphasized more that Sebastian appears to be and wants to be a very polite man who quite possibly is even angrier than Fenris. Just Fenris uses his anger like armor while Sebastian's rage is this fury that seizes control of him and changes his internal lifegoals to be "Murder you."
Which is the worst part about his anger: it thinks. Sebastian's wrath wants your blood and it's putting a great deal of thought into just how to go about doing that. He's also very loud about it.
Like a lot of DAII it needed more time. Sebastian being a DLC character didn't help, as he mostly came off as Hawke's friend that the rest of the band sort of tolerated because, well, he was Hawke's friend. But I do think they should've given some more weight to that Sebastian's "youthful wildness" was less "partied it up" and more "eyeball ripping and ultraviolence."
I'll be honest when it turns out in inquisition that Sebastian went on to annex Kirkwall I was shocked at how much of a natural progression that was for his character. It just made total sense. The whole theme of justice vs. vengeance vs. wrath etc. still has me thinking about DA2 like 14+ (?) years later. I miss the essays of meta. I've lost basically every blog from back there in the old times

How thoughtful of the writers to give Garak all the best lines.
