== Dragon Age II ==
=== Combat comments ===
Before a fight:
* Incoming!
* You ready? I'm ready!
* Alright, watch me!
* Time to prove something!
* I'll show them what I can do!
* I can do this, you'll see!
* I'm ready and waiting, let's see what you have.
* Look out! They've got back up!
During a fight:
* Watch for the big one!
* That's a strong one!
* How did that get by?!
* Stay out of reach! That one's big!
* What's that one throwing?!
* Watch out!
* Too far, see?
* With what? Too far!
* From here, we can regroup and do this!
* Gather 'round me! Regroup!
* I'm coming, hang on!
Kills an enemy:
* That was all me! Right there!
* I did that! Right there!
* That's how we did it back in Ferelden!
* Everyone see that? Down!
* You. Me. And an audience! That's what this is all about!
* Who's laughing now, huh?!
* I've got this one!
After a fight:
* Always watching out for your little brother, huh?
* You got us through that one, good start.
* Take a step, kill, repeat, repeat, repeat.
* It'll take a census to tally the dead when we're done.
No effect:
* Come on, come on! Something else.
* Blighted thing! I'm not getting through!
* Nothing is happening!
* This weapon is useless!
* Guess I'll try... what? Something else?
Recovering from KO:
* I'm back up!
* Can't keep me down!
* Not letting that happen again!
* I wasn't completely down! I can still do this!
About to KO:
Low on stamina:
* This better end soon!
* Can't keep pushing!
* Getting -getting tired of following you!
Someone else KO'd:
* (If Hawke falls) No, you don't get to be a hero on my watch!
* (If Hawke falls) Get up! Don't do this!
* (If Hawke falls) Don't you die on me, not after all this!
* (If Hawke falls) You're not leaving me like this! Come on!
* (If Hawke falls) You'll be alright. Damn it! You'll be alright!
*(If Anders falls) We lost the Warden? That's not right!
* (If Aveline falls) Aveline is down? Maker's breath!
* (If Bethany falls) Sister? Bethany!
* (If Fenris falls) Your pet elf has fallen!
* (If Isabela falls) We would lose the fun one. Get her up!
* (If Merrill falls) The elf girl is too soft, she's down.
* (If Varric falls) The dwarf has dropped a few more feet!
* They can't do that! I won't let them do that!
After a fight:
* Always watching out for your little brother, huh?
* You got us through that one, good start.
* I suppose you helped that time, a little.
* Of course we did.
* I think that's all of them.
Taking a potion:
* This will help, right?
Stuck:
* Something has me! Maker!
Trap:
* Someone left us a present.
* Since when can I do that?
* Need your little brother for that?
* So you can't do everything.
* Looks like you need a hand.
* I thought the eldest was the best at everything.
* Look at that, perfect.
* Couldn't've done it without me.
* A fine job if I say so. And I do.
=== Carver and Anders ===
=== Carver and Aveline ===
* Carver: Did you approve my application?
* Aveline: I can't make you a guard, Carver.
* Carver: We were both soldiers. Why won't they take me?
* Aveline: I was an officer. And I follow orders.
* Carver: (Laughs) No you don't.
* Aveline: I also think of others before myself. You seem tired of that, and that's dangerous.
* Carver: Just when it's not my choice. You told them not to take me, didn't you?
* Aveline: Yes.
* Carver: I'm surprised you still travel with us, Aveline.
* Aveline: Carver, don't.
* Carver: You're ever so busy with the guardsmen. It must be a burden to slum with the refugees.
* Aveline: It's oddly comforting that you insult me like I'm family.
* Carver: That wasn't... no, I didn't mean that.
* Aveline: I know. But you should be glad that's how I took it.
* Aveline: I don't like some of the people you've been associating with, Carver.
* Carver: Talk to my brother/sister. He/She's the one in charge.
(If on friendship path with Aveline)
* Aveline: Maybe, but I know you get around.
(If on rivalry path with Aveline)
* Aveline: Who says I don't mean him/her too?
* Aveline: This city's full of people who are dead set on ending badly. I don't want to see you end up the same way.
* Carver: Would asking you to stop spying on me help in the least?
* Aveline: No.
* Aveline: So, Carver, have you thought about what you'll do if your expedition doesn't pay off?
* Carver: This is our only chance and you know it.
* Aveline: You're so damned proud you couldn't pick up a trade?
* Carver: And who would take on a Fereldan apprentice? Maybe in another year I could work my way up to pissboy.
* Aveline: Fine, let's crawl down some holes. Good bloody luck for your sake.
* Aveline: Tell me, how did your family escape Lothering? Almost everyone who hadn't fled...
* Carver: 
** (If Hawke is male) My brother. If he wasn't with us, I don't think we'd be here.
** (If Hawke is female) My older sister. If she wasn't with us, I don't think we'd be here.
* Aveline: But you seem quite skilled as well.
* Carver: I'm not my brother/sister.
(When talking to Aveline during A Friend in the Guard and ask, "Do you miss being a soldier?")
* Hawke: This must be a very different pace from serving King Cailan.
* Aveline: It's just one more change, though. The real end for me was Ostagar.
* Aveline: What about you Carver? You were there. Do you feel something similar?
* Carver: No.
* Aveline: All right, then.
* Aveline: Bit of a tit, your brother.
=== Carver and Fenris ===
=== Carver and Isabela ===
=== Carver and Merrill ===
=== Carver and Varric ===
* Varric: You know, Junior, it's eerie how much of a resemblance there is between you two.
* Carver:
** (If Hawke is male) We're brothers. What's eerie about that?
** (If Hawke is female) She's my sister. Of course there's a resemblance.
* Varric: Ooh, you thought I meant Hawke. I was talking about Gamlen.
* Carver: Maker, I hate you dwarf.
───────
* Carver: Don't look at me.
* Varric: What's your issue now, little Hawke?
* Carver: Don't call me...just don't alright? You're just looking for fodder for your stories.
* Varric: You think you're that interesting?
* Carver: I have enough trouble being overshadowed as it is. I don't need to get caught under an imaginary me, too.
* Varric: Don't you worry. I'm not in the business of lullabies or children's stories.
───────
* Carver: I'm surprised these tunnels don't simply collapse.
* Varric: Dwarves made them.
* Carver: Then I'm surprised they're not smaller.
───────
* Varric: You know, Junior, you're looking at this all wrong.
* Carver: Whatever it is you're about to say, I'm not interested.
* Varric: I'm a professional younger brother. Trust me, the center of attention's the worst place to be.
* Varric: When things go wrong, and they always do, that's where all the fingers point. Look at any kingdom in Thedas.
* Varric: You've got people who warm thrones, and people nobody sees who do the real work.
* Carver:
** (If Hawke is male) So my brother is a king now? Just what he needed.
** (If Hawke is female) And my sister is a queen in this scenario. Perfect.
* Varric: Point. Missing it. Ah well.
───────
* Carver: Varric.
* Varric: Carver.
* Carver: Still think you're helping while burying us in debt to your brother?
* Varric: Still riding side-saddle while bitching at your betters?
* Carver: Drinks later?
* Varric: Never miss'em.
== Legacy ==
=== Carver's remarks ===
* (During Act 1) "Maybe we don't need Bartrand's stupid expedition. There must be something valuable down here."
(If Carver is a templar)
* "I'm a long way from needing money these days. If I wanted to visit the Deep Roads, I'd join the Wardens. They can have their burden. And I'll keep mine."
(If Carver is a Grey Warden)
* "The Deep Roads again. Like I don't see enough of that. There's something to be said for a Blight. Everything comes up where you can see it. And kill it. 
* "The Deep Roads again, I suppose I'm lucky. That first trip, I could have ended up only six feet down. (Shivers) Free Marchers bury their dead, right? Or is that Orlesians? Sometimes I forgot which country I'm in."
=== Carver and Hawke ===
=== Carver and Anders ===
=== Carver and Aveline ===
(During Act 1)
* Aveline: Your form's sloppy, Carver. Stiffen up or the darkspawn will take your blade.
* Carver: Right. I'll keep that in mind. 
* Aveline: And you're angry, why?
* Carver: You didn't fare any better than I did the last time we faced darkspawn. 
* Aveline: If they take your blade, people die. That's not happening again. Stiffen up. 
* Carver: Yes ma'am.
(If Carver is in a friendship with Hawke)
* Aveline: You're making a name for yourself in the templars. 
* Carver: And you've earned one, Captain.
* Aveline: Have I?
* Carver: Things the way they are, I wouldn't have anyone else in the position. Or watching out for my brother/sister.
(If Carver is a templar and rivals with Hawke)
* Aveline: You're making a name for yourself in the templars. 
* Carver: And you're earning one, Captain.
* Aveline: Am I now?
* Carver: Just be careful. The order would be more than willing to...assume more authority for protecting the city. 
* Aveline: That's not how it works. 
* Carver: Not yet.
(Or, if Aveline married Donnic)
* Aveline: You're making a name for yourself in the templars. 
* Carver: And you've changed yours, Aveline Hendyr. Let me know if you ever need him run out of town or something. 
* Aveline: (Laughs) I will do that, Carver.
(If Carver is a Grey Warden)
* Aveline: I'm glad you found a place with the Wardens. 
* Carver: Well, it's not the city guard, but it'll do. 
* Aveline: Carver... it wasn't the place for you. 
* Carver: No, it's all right. It is. It cost a lot, but I get it. I really was a bit of a tit those days, wasn't I?
* Aveline: Well...
(Depending on who is here)
* Varric: No shit.
* Fenris: Insufferable.
* Isabela: Legendary.
* Anders: Maker, yes.
* Sebastian: I've heard as much. 
(If Hawke has a humorous/charming personality)
* Hawke: Spoiled, annoying, thick-headed, brattish little nitwit of a... oh, have we stopped?
=== Carver and Fenris ===
=== Carver and Isabela ===
=== Carver and Merrill ===
=== Carver and Sebastian ===
(If Carver is a templar)
* Sebastian: I'm glad that a sword of the Chantry has joined us. 
* Carver: Right. Keep it to yourself. 
* Sebastian: I'm sorry? 
* Carver: You don't understand this life. I didn't.
(If Carver is a Grey Warden)
* Sebastian: I'm honoured to have a Grey Warden with us. 
* Carver: It's unusual, that's for certain. 
* Sebastian: Yes, I know the restrictions of your sacrifice, I won't presume to understand it. 
* Carver: Thank you.
(If Carver is a templar and Hawke is in a friendly romance with Sebastian)
* Sebastian: Is something troubling you, brother?
* Carver: I'm not your brother. 
* Sebastian: I'm not familiar with Ferelden tradition but I married your sister. I believe that makes us brothers. 
* Carver: A "chaste marriage." Some invention of yours, no doubt.
(If Hawke has a diplomatic/helpful personality)
* Hawke: Carver, please be happy for me. 
* Carver: For as long as this is what you want. The day after...
* Sebastian: That day will not come. I am certain.
(If Hawke has a humorous/charming personality)
* Hawke: Aww. Would you feel better if I slept with him? Because I totally would. Right here. 
* Carver: Sister, please!
* Sebastian: Yes, love... rein it in. 
(If Hawke has an aggressive/direct personality)
* Hawke: I'm happy. Play nice with your new brother. 
* Carver: If you insist. 
* Hawke: I do.
=== Carver and Varric ===
(During Act 1)
* Varric: What's the matter Junior? Three assassination attempts! You're the centre of attention! I thought you'd be happier.
* Carver: They were trying to lure my brother into a trap, that's all.
* Varric: It's a start. Keep at it and pretty soon, you'll get some thugs of your very own.
(If Carver is a templar)
* Varric: I'll bet the Knight-Commander was thrilled one of her templars was attacked in the Gallows.
* Carver: Ecstatic.
* Varric: Did she make you clean up the mess?
* Carver: We hired some dwarves. Proper ones, with swabbing beards.
* Varric: Good to know the Paragons have steady work.
(If Carver is a Grey Warden)
* Varric: You've been away too long, Junior.
* Carver: Running short of fodder for your stories?
* Varric: Do you know another lovable lug with more sword than sense?
* Carver: I've seen things far more threatening than your verse, my friend. Do your worst.
* Varric: So be it. We shall meet in battle when properly drunk. And safe from darkspawn, blah blah blah.
== Mark of the Assassin ==
=== Carver's remarks ===
* "You can train a wyvern for riding if you break it young. It takes a skilled man, and a small man."
* (After dealing with the huntsman) "Turnips are too good for that bastard."
* (When clicked, anywhere) "Not one person here has spoken to me. It's like I'm your squire."
* (When clicked, after being released from the Dungeons) "So anyone can be a Qunari? What were the horned ones before that, then?"
* (When clicked, after entering the Retreat) "Why are we still trusting this girl?"
(During the fight with Leopold)
* Carver: Lure him to the cliff!
(If you poisoned Leopold previously)
* Carver: Good work, that'll make him easier to handle.

=== Carver and Anders ===
=== Carver and Aveline ===
(During Act 1)
* Aveline: You should see if any of the noblemen are looking for new men-at-arms.
* Carver: Are you trying to get rid of me?
* Aveline: It's a role with some autonomy. A good fit with your training and... tendencies.
* Carver: After serving King Cailan? You want me to suffer some poncy git who needs two servants to wipe his own ass?
* Carver: I'll find my own way, thanks.
* Aveline: I wish you would.
* Carver: Been a bit light on the career advice since I got here.
* Aveline: You've been a bit light on needing it.
* Aveline:
** (If Carver is a Grey Warden) Although, why the Wardens would care about a fop and his... his...
** (If Carver is a templar) Although, why a templar was sent to observe such a... a...
* Carver: Utter waste of ability and time?
* Aveline: Yes!
* Carver:
** (If Carver is a templar) I expect it's as close to diplomacy as the Knight-Commander gets.
** (If Carver is a Grey Warden) He toys with big beasties. Who knows what he'll flush out of the dark?
* Carver: It's light duty. Can't lie about that.
(While trying to find Hawke and Tallis)
* Carver: The place is a maze. Another pass and then double back?
* Aveline: Sounds good, we'll do that.
* Carver: Really?
* Aveline:
** (If Carver is a templar) There a reason I should doubt you, Templar?
** (If Carver is a Warden) There a reason I should doubt you, Warden?
=== Carver and Fenris ===
=== Carver and Isabela ===
=== Carver and Merrill ===
=== Carver and Sebastian ===
(While trying to find Hawke and Tallis)
* Carver: And we are back to front yet again. 
* Sebastian: Blessed Andraste, guide us. Protect our friends in this dark hour. 
* Carver: Right. Prayer. Useful, useful. Or we could do something. 
* Sebastian: Guide us by the wisdom of your light... in silence.
=== Carver and Varric ===
(During Act 1)
* Carver: How do you put up with Bartrand? He's the most arrogant horse's ass I've ever met.
* Varric: It's not that hard, Junior. He's my brother.
* Carver: Don't start with that "unconditional love" rubbish.
* Varric: Forget family ties: I have blackmail material forever. At any point, I can launch into the story of how he peed himself at a grand ball.
* Carver: Yeah, all right, I'd pay to hear that.
(During Act 2 or Act 3)
* Carver: Still playing the innocent while picking every purse in sight?
* Varric: Still... actually, you're doing all right.
* Carver: Thought I was. I suppose it's the same for you, really.
* Varric: 'Tis true, 'tis true. (Sighs)
* Carver: It's more fun hating each other, isn't it.
* Varric: Absolutely.
(While looking for Hawke and Tallis. If Carver is a Grey Warden)
* Carver: So, we're lost.
* Varric: Just like old times.
* Carver: Maker, I hope not. I was an ass.
* Varric: (laughs) Fair comment, Junior. All right, let's get this done.
