"I hear the song that clouds my mind,


a song of death an pain.


It calls me down into the dark,


to play the final game."




- From the diary of Milan





Milan is a Grey Warden of Ferelden. He is always accompanied by a Mabari warhound named Rasha.

Milan was risen by his uncle Bryce Cousland, the Teryn of Highever because his father vanished when he was 4 years old and his mother died while giving birth to Milan (His mother was Bryces sister). Bryce and his wife allways tried to treat Milan like their own son Fergus and so Milan had a sheltered childhood.

Milan sees Fergus like his own brother and had a close relationship to his uncle and his aunt. When Milan was 23 years old, Bryce and his women were murderd by a rivaling family and Milan had to flee and only survived with the help of the Grey Wardens who fond him ill and more dead than alive near the Korcari Wilds.


Some ideas I have for him:

Milan is romantically involved with Morrigan, which made it impissoble for him to undergo the dark ritual. The idea of her leaving with a child of him that he will never able to raise was like a stab with a dagger in his heart. Especially cause his own mother died and his father disapeared. He doesn't want his child to have the same fate.

So he decides not to undergo the dark ritual and cause he does not want his friend Alistair to die he decides to take the final blow on the Archdemon and sacrificing himself.

So they fight the Archdemon and Milan is able to kill it, which leaves him uncontious and gravely wounded.. but not dead like everybody expected and it should have been. Later on Milan finds out that he "carries" the untainted soul of Urthemiel himself (The gods soul was it also who saved him from death but even Milan does not know this at that moment and he has now idea how that could have happend).
He keeps it a secret cause he is affraid that this information can be turned against him and makes others believe it must have been the mercy of the maker, that he survived (the funny thing is, I had this idea long bevor it was know that Flemeth carries a soul of an elven godess ).
Milan tries to find out why he was able to survive and why he was not killed by the old gods soul (What normaly happens to the Warden that kills the Archdemon.)

He will meet Morrigan again.. but it will take about 10 years. Morrigan really feels guilty when she finaly understands what she has lost and she is affraid of meeting Milan.. so she avoids him and he does the same cause he is the opinion that Morrigan only used him and never really loved him. Nontheless Milan can't stop to love her and she actually does too still love him.

She gets to know that Milan survived so but she doesn't know know why unless Milan tells her.. when they meet again.
Morrigan will not admit at first, that she still loves Milan.. Milan in contrary will not hide his feelings..

The first time Morrigan will admit her love is, when Milan decides to sacrifice himself to bring Urthemiel back in a living form.. (he will simply leave a letter for her, cause he can't bring himself to tell her).. she will follow him.. to stop him but will be to late.. she will meet the god in human form.. Milan allready dead.. Urthemiel touched by her honest feelings and cause he was long part of Milan decides to give Milan his live back sacrificing a part of himself..so Milan and Urthemiel are connected from now on (so if something happens to the god Milan will suffer the same and vice versa).
