The First (DA)

The First is a talking darkspawn you meet in the Blackmarsh. It is very loyal to The Mother, and despises The Architect and The Warden. The First apparently killed the Grey warden Kristoff, the man who the Commander was looking for in the first place. The First was sent by the Mother to leave a trap for the Warden-Commander, sending the Commander and their party into the Fade, but didn't realize that it was included in the trap as well. Once it realizes that it has been betrayed, it vows to find its own way out of the Fade and get revenge on the Mother.
