Dragon Age II Hints
Find Karl inside the chantry and help him escape.
1 of 6: Move forward to the room with all the candles against one wall, then turn right and go up the stairs.
2 of 6: You'll find Karl standing in the large open room past the stairs.
3 of 6: Talk to him to start a conversation in which it's revealed that he was "tranquil"-ized by the templars.
4 of 6: They'll show up behind you and attack as soon as the conversation is over, but you'll have three companions plus Anders to help you take them down, so it shouldn't be hard. Try focusing on the weaker templars first to reduce their numbers, and watch for an assassin-like Templar Hunter to show up during the fight.
5 of 6: TIP: If you see that a dead enemy has left some loot, be sure to pick it up before the battle is over, since you won't have a chance to afterwards.
6 of 6: After the combat is over, Karl will beg Anders to kill him. No matter what you say, Anders will do so. In the following conversation, be sympathetic with Anders to get some friendship points with him. He becomes a new companion, and you can add him in and pick several spells for him to learn right after the conversation is over.
