Every Dragon Age game has taken a different approach to crafting its protagonist, and Dragon Age: The Veilguard is no different, offering faction-specific backgrounds for the main character, Rook. Each of these backgrounds comes with a small story attached to help shape that version of Rook and tie them to the chosen faction. However, some have more flexibility than others and lend themselves better to roleplay.

Set approximately a decade after the events of Dragon Age: Inquisition and around 22 years after Origins, The Veilguard picks up the thread left dangling in Trespasser. After tracking down Solas with Varric and Harding, everything goes wrong when two powerful elven gods are released from the Fade. New hero Rook must put together a team made up of people from the various factions The Veilguard introduces.

How Do Backgrounds Work In Dragon Age: The Veilguard? Faction Backgrounds Provide Brief Context For Rook

Unlike previous...

On the path to the secret ending in Dragon Age: The Veilguard, you'll encounter Mythal, whom you either have to defeat in battle or convince that you're worthy of gaining her Essence. If you succeed in the conversation here, you'll be on your way to the secret ending of Veilguard, but for those whose Rook is perhaps less conversationally inclined, you'll need to fight a dragon to succeed. After failing your metaphorical charisma check, prepare to take on Mythal's Retribution.

Mythal is one of the ancient elven gods and a former companion to Solas. She worked with Elgar'nan and Gilhan'nain before the fall of the Titans to free them from Titan rule, but when the time came to form an Elven society in the wake of their rebellion, Elgar'nan and Gilhan'nain chose to become tyrannical leaders rather than creating a society of peace. Mythal sided with the two of them...

At the end of the Regrets of the Dread Wolf side quest in Dragon Age: The Veilguard, Rook can find themselves face-to-face with Mythal and try convincing her to help their cause. After Rook and the party find all six Wolf Statuettes and view Solas' memories contained within, they will consult with Morrigan about what they have seen. She will suggest seeking a remnant of the Elven god Mythal, who might be convinced to help the party in their fight against the other gods.

Like other Dragon Age games, players who choose to track down Mythal's Essence in Dragon Age: The Veilguard must choose the correct dialogue options to convince the goddess that Rook and their cause are worthy of aid. Failing to do so will result in a difficult fight instead. Mythal's Essence proves helpful near the endgame to defeat a powerful boss, unlock a boon ahead of the confrontation with the gods,...
