Varric will start to covet a fragment of Bartrand's red lyrium idol towards the end of his Act 3 mission. At least three of these things are evidence of a haunting. The mansion looks exactly like at least four other locations in Kirkwall. Spectres run across your field of vision and vanish. In Act 3, Varric will ask you to investigate his brother's mansion again. Varric will be inclined to kill him, but a compassionate Hawke can talk him down and encourage him to send Bartrand to a sanitarium instead. In Act 2 you track him down to discover that the idol has (surprise!) driven him to kill a whole bunch of people. Varric's brother abandons you both in the Deep Roads in Act 1 while he absconds with a totally-not-evil idol made of red lyrium. 'Brovalry' isn't a word, but should be.Д«asically: do you like liars, chest hair, crossbows, Han Solo, and Doing The Right Thing, Consequences Be Damned? Varric is your guy. You can't romance Varric, but did you have a bromance? How about a brovalry? I mean rivalry. Choose this option if your Hawke is an irredeemable dickhead, I guess. If Hawke sides with the Templars and repeatedly refuses to reconcile with his sister, then she'll be executed. If Bethany becomes a Circle mage then it is possible for her to die in the final battle. If Anders is in the party, however, then either Carver or Bethany can be taken to become a Grey Warden. If Anders isn't in the party, they die there. If they're taken to the Deep Roads, they will accidentally ingest darkspawn blood (see also: 'don't put that in your mouth, you moron') and start dying from the corruption.

If Carver is left behind, he becomes a Templar. If Bethany is left behind, she'll be taken away to become a Circle mage. The fate of the surviving sibling depends on whether or not Hawke takes them on Bartrand's expedition to the Deep Roads at the end of Act 1, and what they do there.

This is because the universe course-corrects to ensure that the party always has a mage in it.

If Hawke is a warrior or a rogue, Carver dies. One of Hawke's siblings will die at the beginning of the game as the family escapes Lothering.
