You hear tales of a darkspawn that speaks, and soon thereafter you meet this growling beast.
It's clear from the beginning, however, that these foes are not the usual expendable masses. Whichever route you choose, you're immediately dropped outside the fortress of Warden's Keep, where darkspawn continue their assault in spite of the Grey Wardens' earlier triumphs. You begin Awakening by selecting a character, either by importing one from Dragon Age: Origins or by creating a new one, who will start at level 18.
