Dragon Age: Origins Hints

Redcliffe Castle - Basement (Dungeon)

  • 1 of 5: Go through a door to find some enraged corpses to "kill."
  • 2 of 5: After they're down, wait for a guy named Jowan to talk to you from his cell.
  • 3 of 5: The room past the cell area has a shambling corpse ambush in it. Fortunately, it's fairly easy to put down.
  • 4 of 5: Check the room for a pile of filth, a pile of bones, and a codex-giving note.
  • 5 of 5: Use the area transition at the north end of the room to get to the castle's main floor.
