ppl talk about cousland having a degenerative arc, but honestly cousland can't beat out aeducan in terms of going from high to low

aeducan was literally royalty, meaning they lived even more lavishly than cousland, so it was an even bigger adjustment to being poor

they weren't just betrayed by a family friend they were betrayed by their OWN BROTHER, and then they have to decide whether to put their fratricidal brother on the throne over harrowmont

they can't even marry alistair in order to regain their royalty status like cousland can

in addition to being poor for the first time, they also have to adjust to an entirely differently environment. imagine living underground your whole life only to come to the surface and find out you're allergic to grass

they ALSO have to adjust to being a minority. they went from people bowing to them to being called racial slurs for the first time

and just to rub it in, everything is too tall

you ought to put some respect on aeducan's name

Dragon Age Origins AU where everything is the same except your origin's temporary companion comes with you to Ostagar and joins the Wardens. Dalish Origin? Tamlen is a menace. He's ready to fight anybody and everybody at Ostagar—even the King. Especially the shem king. Duncan hopes you keep an eye on him. It takes a lot persuading to get him to do the Dark Ritual. Easier if you're a female warden and you have a relationship with him, because he doesn't want you to die and he doesn't want to die. Will bitch a lot in Dalish—and so can you. Mage Origin? Jowan never leaves your side. He doesn't want to leave your side, not after what you lost to help him. Wynne's glare has him cowering and using you for cover. He becomes braver, however, and when the march of Denerim comes, he is fully willing to take the final blow for you, his best and only friend. Human Noble? Gilmore will doing anything to protect you, his friend, his lord/lady. He was fully willing to attack Duncan during the Joining if you had died. He gets along best with Alistair. If you become King or Queen, he becomes your bodyguard, and will follow you even to Vigil's Keep. Dwarf Noble? Gorim will follow you anywhere. He's there in the Deep Roads, willing to die by his prince/princess, when you are both found by Duncan. He doesn't particularly want to support Bhelen for the throne, but if you do he will stand by your decision. If you had a child as a male, you can use the human way of making him the kid's godfather. Dwarf Commoner? Leske had no choice when Duncan claimed him with you, but at least he's alive and breathing! And with you, too. During Ostagar, you can let him loose and he comes back trinkets and money. Doesn't like the whole 'saving the world' thing but, hey, at least they're looting. He really changes his tune if you make Bhelen king and, later on if Hardened, Alistair is made king/king with Anora because, wow, he's palling with royalty and getting the royal treatment! Fist fights Oghren a lot. City Elf? Soris doesn't really want to be here. But you're here, and you've been his hero since you were children and he knows nothing can take you down, so he's a little bit comforted. He slowly comes into his own, being confident and sure of himself, and Shianni makes a comment about it and he says it's because he had you, his cousin, his friend, helping him. He and Zevran have a flirty relationship and, at the end if you didn't romance Zevran, have a hint of a relationship going on. Is fully willing to either die for you or do the Dark Ritual, because he wants to repay all the times you were his hero to be your hero just this once.
