The Withered

The Withered is a Disciple, an intelligent darkspawn, aligned with the Architect. The Withered led an assault on Vigil's Keep that weakened the keep for some time.
== Background ==
It led the organized darkspawn attack on Vigil's Keep at the start of the Awakening. It is first mentioned by Rowland when the Warden-Commander sees him wounded, saying that he encountered a "talking darkspawn" that infused something in his blood with powerful magic, probably the taint. It is seen in the roof of Vigil's Keep dealing with the keep's seneschal after it kicks a soldier off the edge.

== Trivia ==
* The first cutscene of The Withered is an evident nod to "Baldur's Gate"; the cutscene where he throws a soldier over the roof is similar to the starting video of Baldur's Gate.
