📋 About This Mod

Edits dialogue referring to King Endrin's middle child so that they're portrayed as female when not playing a Dwarf Noble PC for cross-playthrough continuity or just a change of pace. Bonus update: Files to replace the male dwarf corpse in

Basically, the Dwarf Noble Warden I've played is a woman and while I could keep pretending that she exists in my other playthroughs, I realized that I could do something a little more thorough. I have no idea why Bioware felt that the Dwarf Noble needed a set gender when you're not playing as them, when it probably wouldn't have been THAT hard to skirt around it like they do with all the other origins, but here's my best attempt to tweak that.

This mod changes all dialogue referring to "King Endrin's middle son" to match a world state where the unchosen Dwarf Noble Warden is a woman.  All of the new lines are voiced (although I'm not totally happy with some of my editing, Nerav Helmi's lines in particular), and minimal content was cut (just one ambient line from the Dwarf Commoner origin).

I think the only reference to the default male Aeducan that I didn't touch is Gorim's codex section in Darkspawn Chronicles, which is... far enough out of the way that it's really not a priority tbh.  If I figure out how to get to that file, I'll update the mod but I wouldn't expect it any time soon. (Nerav saying she was a potential match for one of Endrin's sons is referring to Trian in this mod's lore, even if he was courting a different Helmi when he died) This mod was tested pretty thoroughly but not exhaustively, so it's totally possible that I messed up in my editing somewhere or that a line slipped through the cracks (especially if there's anything outside of Orzammar, Gorim, and Oghren, since that's where I focused my attention).  If you try this mod out and catch something I missed, please let me know!  I'll do my best to update it.

The only compatibility issues I'm aware of are Improved Atmosphere (I'm not 100% sure what changes you'd be missing out on since my laptop can't quite handle IA, but the files to delete from their mod are bdc100_caravan_merchant.dlg, orz200_nerav.dlb, orz200_nerav.dlg, orz300_rica.dlb, and orz300_rica.dlg if you want to use both) and Fixed Political Support in 'A Paragon of Her Kind' (which I'd like to make a compatible version for at some point, but I'm not totally sure how to do that yet and also I'd like permission from the mod creator first dlgjfdlkgjdfg).  The dialogue-focused mods I've checked for compatibility are Morrigan Restoration Patch, ZDF Dialog Fix, and Complete Bi Overhaul. Bye Oghren should also work fine with this mod, since I didn't have to touch Oghren's dialogue or anything from the Deep Roads part of the quest.  Also, I haven't tested this mod on a non-English version of the game, but
