Sigrun

Sigrun is a casteless dwarf and a Scout in the Legion of the Dead. She is a potential companion in Dragon Age: Origins - Awakening.
== Background ==
Sigrun was born in Orzammar's Dust Town. She lived with her mother Jana in a little shack that they shared with Jana's brother, Boro, his wife, and four children. Jana made some coin helping merchants unload brontos, but not enough to adequately provide for her daughter. Sigrun started begging as a child, and eventually became a thief.

== Dialogue points ==
Below are the spots where dialogue may be initiated with Sigrun. On the PC, it may sometimes be hard to find the correct spot to do so; make sure to press "tab" and rotate the camera if the relevant trigger is not possible to select.
* Kal'Hirol: cliff by the entrance of the thaig.
* City of Amaranthine: The table of the weaponsmith in the market district.
* Wending Wood: Tree near the bandit camp, at the beginning of the area.
* Vigil's Keep - Throne Room: A book in the bookcase behind Sigrun.
== Quotes ==
* "Isn't perspective wonderful? You'd think people who are so tall would have more of it."
* "I was told that evil always triumphs because good is stupid, but..."
* (Examining the bookshelf in Vigil's Keep) "This one is a Nevarran romance--pretty spicy, too, from the looks of it. What's an Antivan milk sandwich? Oh. Oh, I see. I'll just... put that back."
* (In Kal'Hirol, after mentioning you already met the Architect) "What's meeting with a darkspawn like? 'Hello, I'm a darkspawn, would you like some tea?'"
* "That...that ghoul there! He has my weapon! That thieving little... nug-snuggler!"
* "We are warriors, already dead to our people."
* (In banter with Oghren) "I don't want to have anything to do with you or the words 'hot' and 'pumping.'"

== Trivia ==
* Sigrun was written by Sheryl Chee.
* Sigrun was the first and only female dwarf companion for over 14 years. With the release of Dragon Age: The Veilguard, she is joined by Lace Harding.
* Although a rogue by class, Sigrun has the strength and constitution (and thus armor and weapon options) to serve as a tank, making her one of the most versatile companions available.
* After rescuing Sigrun, she complains about a broken rib. When she joins your party she will be afflicted with the injury "Broken Bone", giving penalties to dexterity (easily fixed with a Lesser Injury Kit).
* If a save is imported from Dragon Age: Origins with the Dwarf Commoner, Sigrun will know and be in awe of the Warden, stating that they are "The Duster that left to join the Grey Wardens" and will ask the Commander to sign her helmet. 
* If a save is imported from Dragon Age: Origins with the Dwarf Noble, Sigrun will recognize the Warden and state that she heard of the Warden's death in the Deep Roads.
* "I was told that evil always triumphs because good is stupid, but..." is a reference to Mel Brooks Spaceballs film. The line is "now you see that evil will always triumph because good is dumb" and is said by Dark Helmet to Lone Starr during their battle.
* In Dragon Age II, during the quest the Paragon's Heir, if Anders is in the party, he will comment that he once knew a dwarf from the Legion of the Dead, Sigrun.
* Writers Nunzio DeFilippis and Christina Weir once considered a very different direction for Dragon Age: Blue Wraith. In these preliminary plans, the plot involved the group tracking down someone who was replicating Fenris' origins to recreate elven immortality, as Fenris himself hadn't aged a day since getting his markings. It would be revealed that the tests were being done by Velanna, with the assistance of her lover Sigrun, whose Calling had come and was trying to avoid death. Velanna would eventually see the error of her ways and go into the Deep Roads to die, while Sigrun would join the group until her Calling came. This idea was never taken beyond the planning stages, and was never pitched to either Dark Horse Comics or BioWare.
== Bugs ==
* Starting or completing the Law and Order quest makes it impossible to initiate Sigrun's companion quest which usually triggers in the City of Amaranthine when walking - with her in party - by the east side of town past Constable Aidan. The cutscene will not be played and her personal quest will remain unavailable for the rest of the game. A way to avoid this is to leave the Law and Order quest untouched, which means not to follow the Smuggler and not to offer help to Constable Aidan until you completed Sigrun's quest. For further details see the walkthrough of Sigrun's Roguish Past. On this bug can be corrected with an unofficial bugfix or via this mod.
* There is a so-called "+100 approval bug" that may occur for any companion, in this case Sigrun, which will increase the rating by +100 points upon taking any action that changes approval (like giving gifts, certain conversations or interactions with the gameworld). Quests known to alter the approval of a certain character should therefore only be completed after recruiting them into your party. For Sigrun these are namely the quests from the Blight Orfans Notis Bord, it is recommended not to initiate any of these before you actually recruited her.
* If Sigrun is recruited as the very last companion, you can't conclude her joining as Varel doesn't have the dialog option for it, but this can be worked around by going back to Vigil's Keep and talking to Varel before you kill the broodmothers.
* It is possible to make her undertake the Joining and thus make her a Grey Warden even before entering Kal'Hirol and thus formally recruiting her through dialogue. She joins the party after the first encounter and can thus be taken back to Vigil's Keep.
