📋 About This Mod
As the title says, this adds a small dialogue with Anders at Vigil's Keep, which allows the Warden (male or female) to kiss or have sex with him. Responses will be different according to relationship level, persuasion skills or the level of intimacy reached. You can be nice to him or a complete jerk, which will also have approval consequences. The default vanilla conversation (if any at that point) will play immediately after the custom one. But if you have reached a relationship status with Anders of Friendship/Love, you may break with him, in which case the conversation and actions won't be available anymore. The scenes will play for humans and elves, though not dwarves (sorry!).
Have in mind that, due to the limitations of Awakening's dialogue, this is by no means a full-fledged romance, but just a little dumb thing for those who liked Anders in Awakening and would have liked some more interactions. The cutscenes were made using the vanilla scenes from Origins and are far from perfect (cutscene creation isn't a strong point of mine), but if someone wants to improve, change or even add new scenes, I don't mind providing the original cutscenes for editing.
Installation and compatibility Unzip in your My Documents/Bioware/Dragon Age/packages/core/override
This mod should be compatible with everything, since no original files were touched.
No music troubleshooting It's very likely that you won't hear any music during the kiss and sex scenes. If that's the case, find the files "music", "music_notstream_sting" (both in C:\Program Files\Dragon Age\packages\core\audio\sound), "da_sex_cutscene.fsb", "da_sex_cutscene.fev", "conv_romance_bank06" and "conv_romance" (in C:\Program Files\Dragon Age\modules\single player\audio\sound), and copy them into your override folder with the other mods. Tools used -Toolset v. 1. 0. 1 -FSB Extractor -Audacity -GDApp -PyGFF -Event Manager (the files m2da_eventmanager. GDA and eventmanager.ncs belong to this mod)
Adds a small dialogue with Anders at Vigil's Keep in Dragon Age: Awakening, allowing male or female Wardens to kiss or have sex with him. Responses vary by relationship level, persuasion, and intimacy, with approval consequences and a break-up option. Compatible with everything, but cutscenes are rough and music may not play.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Solid community support with 442 endorsements and over 6,400 downloads.
- Works for both male and female Wardens, which is a nice touch for role-players.
- No file conflicts since it doesn't touch original game files, so it's safe to run alongside other mods.
⚠️ Cons
- Cutscenes are rough and made from vanilla Origins scenes, so don't expect polished animations.
- Music often doesn't play during scenes, requiring manual file copying to fix.
- Dwarves are left out entirely, which is a bummer if you're rolling a dwarf Warden.
For Dragon Age: Origins players who romanced Anders in Awakening and wanted more intimate interactions with him. It's a niche, lore-friendly addition for fans of the character, not a full romance overhaul. Skip if you're looking for a comprehensive romance mod or if you play as a dwarf.
