    At the end of Act 2 Aveline: “You lived your life for the Qun, you gonna die for some Elves?” Arishok: “Someone is.”
  • He's threatening all the nobles, then he sees Hawke and is like,"'Sup, Hawke?" XD

    22:04 "They hunger for purpose." I've been looking for this line for so, so long. Thank you!
  • @RPG5rule
    arishok my beloved. truly one of the most compelling character in this series imo. thank you for compiling his dialogue!
  • THANK YOU! I couldn't manage to find a video with all his scenes anywhere else on YouTube, this is appreciated 👍
  • @gourmand3
    Thank you for this long video! I love the Arishok, best character in the game. Wish our Qunari inquisitor was even a fourth as cool as him
  • @NikkolasKing
    Just wanna echo what the other poster said. I've been looking for something like this forever. Thanks so much.

    30:58 in my playthrough, i let the Arishok go. Mainly because i consider him a worthy foe. Hawke and the Arishok aren't friends, and never will be. However, they still respect each other in some level. So in my headcanon, They will have a showdown, but not on this day.
  • @AHunDread
    Either he dies in Kirkwall, or ends up in worse conditions in his Homeland during DA:I according to Varric, all because Isabela escapes with the Tome off-screen.
  • @ravenmoll3685
    This is interesting.. I achieved the exact same thing, but with almost entirely different dialogue choices.
  • @dubbzy92
    As much as i like Bull's character, the writing for the Qunari in Inquisition was pretty bland. I was hoping to see characters like the Arishok and the Tal-Vashoth. They shed some light and info on who and how they are.

    You might know how to earn his respect points, But the conversation with him is a little... awful...
