Alistair is a fictional character from BioWare's ''Dragon Age'' franchise, first appearing as a companion and party member in ''Origins''. Alistair is the first full companion the player gets if they don't choose the Human Noble origin (and the second if they do), and is a fellow Grey Warden alongside the player character. Over the course of the game, Alistair is revealed to be the heir to Ferelden's throne, and may be put on as king. It is also possible to sacrifice him at the end of the game against the archdemon. In addition to ''Origins'', Alistair also appears in the game's expansion pack ''Awakening'' (if placed as king during ''Origins''), the ''Darkspawn Chronicles'' DLC, ''Dragon Age II'', and the ''Silent Grove'' comic series. Alistair has received positive reception, mainly for his sarcastic remarks and romance. However, some writers have compared him to previous BioWare companions, such as ''Knights of the Old Republic''s Carth Onasi. ==Concept and characteristics== Alistair was mainly written by David Gaider—the lead writer of ''Origins''—and is voiced by Steve Valentine. Alistair is a relatively new Grey Warden, who are a group devoted to fighting darkspawn. He is the secret son of King Maric and a serving girl, and was originally raised in Redcliffe Castle by Arl Eamon after his mother's death. However, he was later given to the Chantry for training as a templar, a military order who are trained to kill "apostates" (mages outside of the Circle of Magi) and watch over the Circle of Magi. Alistair is described as having a "wry sense of humor", and makes many sarcastic remarks during the game.〔〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Alistair )〕 If the player chooses to be female, Alistair can be romanced. In an interview with GameZone, David Gaider said that Alistair was a bit of a "woo-bie" and that his romance was "very cute". However, Gaider said that he wouldn't want to have another Alistair-like romance in the interest of originality.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Dragon Age II's David Gaider Reveals Stance on In-Game Romances )〕 Alistair was originally written to be a "grizzled Grey Warden veteran", as per ''Dragon Age''s original lead designer James Ohlen. However, such a character would be unlikely not to lead, and the character would have to start out at a low level. Gaider changed the character, and drew some inspiration from the characters Xander Harris and Mal Reynolds. Similarly, Gaider also originally wanted to have Mal's actor Nathan Fillion voice the character, but decided against it as he would've had to do an English accent. However, he is still pleased with Valentine's voicing. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Alistair (Dragon Age)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
