After King Maric vanished during a sea journey and is presumed dead, Loghain became responsible for defending Ferelden and guiding Maric’s naive son and successor to the throne, Cailan Theirin. His daughter, Anora would eventually be married to Cailan.

Her death was a direct result of Loghain withholding information regarding her allegiances. Loghain seems to fulfill Flemeth’s prophecy of being nothing more than a traitor to Maric. Therefore, I label Loghain Mac Tir as a traitor, not a hero. 100% agreee with everything Darrell has said here.

Because Loghain knew that they weren’t going to survive the battle. If Loghain ever planned to betray Cailan, he certainly wouldn’t have done it in such a fashion if he had any other choice. In his mind, Cailan was already lost to the Orlesian infiltrators-the Grey Wardens-and nothing could save him.

If you choose to induct Loghain into the Grey Wardens, the party will permanently lose Alistair. He will either renounce his royal claim and disappear, begin immediate preparations to rule jointly with Anora if a political marriage was arranged at Eamon’s Estate, or be executed at Anora’s order.

Noun. teyrn m (plural teyrnedd or teyrnion) sovereign, monarch. (chess) king.

In the first years of Maric’s reign, Loghain spent most of his time in Denerim while his wife ruled Gwaren. Teyrna Celia was an incomparable foreman, and the terynir rebuilt itself under her guidance. Due to his long absences, Loghain started taking his young daughter Anora to court with him in 9:10.

Despite his encouragement of their relationship, Loghain’s own relationship with both Maric and Rowan became strained. After the marriage, he rarely spent time in their company. Occasionally, Maric would visit Gwaren presumably to meet with Loghain, but it was usually without Rowan’s accompaniment.

Loghain made short work of the pompous chevalier and took the greatsword as a trophy. After the end of the war against the Orlesians, King Maric gave Loghain the vacant teyrnir of Gwaren in order to elevate him to nobility.

Dragon Age: Origins. Loghain is first encountered at the fortress of Ostagar; the Warden can meet him at his tent, or at the war council. As the Teyrn commanding the army, Loghain is responsible for devising the tactics that will be used in the Battle of Ostagar.
