Character Varathorn
Race:	Elf
Gender:	Male
Class:	Rogue
Title:	Crafter
Location:	Dalish Camp (Brecilian Outskirts)
Voice:	Tim Dadabo
Appearances:	Dragon Age: Origins

Varathorn is the master Dalish craftsman of the Dalish Camp located in the Brecilian Outskirts of Ferelden in Dragon Age: Origins.

Involvement Edit

If the Warden is of Dalish Elf Origin, Varathorn knows him/her and the Warden's father. Regardless, the Warden can trade with Varathorn; he carries an infinite supply of Elfroot, Deathroot, and Toxin Extract.

Varathorn will give the Warden the quest Rare Ironbark, and will offer to craft something from the Ironbark should it be acquired. See the quest for details.

Access to the store Edit

The party can lose access to Varathorn's store due to choices made during the Nature of the Beast quest or antisocial behavior in their camp. Unsurprisingly, the elves have poor opinions of those who steal, sleep with their teens, or side with their enemies. Additionally, when Cammen says 'I wish I could become a real hunter', choosing the option 'So be one and stop wishing it' automatically causes Varathorn to deny the Warden access to his store. See Nature of the Beast and Dalish Camp for further details.

Inventory Edit

Varathorn carries unlimited Deathroot, Toxin Extract and Elfroot.

Notes Edit

• Varathorn drops Varathorn's Dar'Misu and a belt if he dies.

Trivia Edit

• The Toolset contains an item called Varathorn's Gems, which seem to be unused during gameplay and unobtainable under normal circumstances.
• In the Dalish Elf Origin quest, if the Warden tells Tamlen to talk so it will calm him down, he asks why the Warden is accompanying him, since he/she was supposed to have been with Varathorn.
