Both times, I was only moderately friendly with her, and not romantically involved. I was not romantically involved with her, but we had very high friendship, and I told her she could keep the book. And she came back to help me with the Arishok. I never once insisted that we give the Qunari the relic. I was always in support of what she wanted.

Answered How do I get the isabella quest castillion for ambrosia? Finally, Aurelian Titus arrives. Alistair confronts him, but he flees, leaving his minions to fight for him. The last of them eventually wounds Devon.

Isabela knocks Devon's assailant unconscious to the floor, but as he is muttering thanks she stabs him in the chest. She tells her companions that he was killed by Titus's man.

Varric tricks the location of Aurelian's home on Seheron from a captured cultist, and Isabela orders her crew to sail to the island. She keeps the crew terrified by telling them scary stories about horn-headed fanatics.

As they approach Sehereon, they are attacked by two Qunari dreadnoughts. The trio are captured by the Qunari and are moved to a Qunari war camp, Akhaaz. Isabela is kept in a cell separately from Varric and Alistair. She is interrogated by Rasaan , a tamassran who asks Isabela what the meaning of her name is. Isabela reveals that her first captain called her "little beauty" as his idea of a joke.

Then Rasaan asks her what happened to him and Isabela answers that she killed him. She also admits that even if she made many mistakes in her life, she doesn't feel any guilt. When the tamassran asks more questions, Isabela has an outburst in anger, causing Rasaan to strike her and tell her that mistakes can be corrected before leaving the cell. Rasaan eventually returns to Isabela's cell and repeatedly demands that she tell her her true name.

She threatens Isabela with qamek , but Isabela still refuses to reveal anything. After Rasaan tries to gently persuade Isabela by saying she may know what happened to her mother, Isabela begins to open up about her past. She reveals that her mother was a Qunari convert who sold Isabela to Luis because she refused to convert.

Eventually, Isabela found herself deep in debt to the Felicisima Armada , and resorted to slave trafficking in order to pay off her debts. One day, the Orlesian navy cornered their ships in the Venefication Sea.

Lord Devon had packed the holds too tightly and Isabela failed to outmaneuver the Orlesians. Fearing capture, they threw the chained slaves overboard to drown.

Isabela swore then that she would never traffic slaves again. Rasaan comforts Isabela, but when she still refuses to reveal her name, Rasaan strikes her again and attempts to force her face into the qamek. This would in effect make her viddath-bas rather than viddathari , as conversion to the Qun would be involuntary for Isabela. Isabela overpowers Rasaan and escapes her cell. Isabela eventually locates the cell where Alistair and Varric are held. She releases them, telling them to escape, while she goes to rescue her crew.

In the end, Isabela finds her crew and tells them about the dangers of trying to escape and asks them to choose whether they want to stay or come with her.

Her crew decides to come with her. However, before she has a chance to open up the cells, Rasaan appears. She says that the other Qunari thought she'd try to escape but she knew her better.

The enraged Rasaan doesn't care about converting Isabela anymore, believing that the only solution is her death. In the fierce battle that ensues, Rasaan is eventually defeated. Isabela holds her dagger to Rasaan's throat, ready to kill. She then tells her that her birth name was Naishe but it isn't anymore.

She then drives the dagger into the ground, deliberately missing Rasaan's head, thus showing that she had no intention of killing her. At the same time, Alistair duels Sten now the Arishok and defeats him. Alistair refuses to kill him and instead offers him to work together against Titus, an offer which Sten accepts. Accompanied by two Qunari dreadnoughts, Isabela, Alistair, Varric, Sten and her crew set sail once more in her restored pirate ship towards Titus' stronghold in Seheron.

Qunari dreadnoughts attack Aurelian Titus ' fortress and Varric infiltrates the building while Isabela and Alistair assault the fortress directly with the Qunari. Isabela's nightmare as a Qunari convert wearing Vitaar. Varric's attempt to free King Maric from the Magrallen causes everyone to be pulled into the Fade. Isabela is found trapped in a nightmare created by magister Aurelian Titus in the Fade, where she is a Qunari and no longer remembers her true past.

Varric and Maevaris Tilani find her but she doesn't recognize them as anyone but bassra and attacks them. Eventually Titus finds them and summons demons to kill them all. The trio all escape and once safe, Varric tries to remind her of who she really is and that this Qunari facade is not who she wants to be.

Although she initially believes it would be easier to submit to others' expectations, she is eventually convinced that she does not want to be defined by others; thus making peace with her doubts and trials and also becoming content with her self perception and dignity as a hero. The trio then heads off in search of Alistair.

Isabela rejoins Alistair and Varric to attack Titus and distract him long enough to allow Maevaris and Maric to kill him. After escaping the Fade, she is present when Alistair shatters the Magrallen, killing Maric.

Afterwards she asks Varric if Alistair made the right decision, to which he replies that he doesn't know. Varric states that she went back to the Raiders of the Waking Sea and is calling herself an admiral.

Varric admits he isn't sure if she actually has a position of authority within the Raiders or if it's just another self-styled title. If Isabela was romanced: Later upon asking Hawke why they are alone, they state that they and Isabela never really believed in being tied down and so she understood when they had to go into hiding. Hawke still plans to reunite with her someday. If Hawke survives the encounter with the Nightmare demon, Varric comments that Isabela will follow them to Weisshaupt whether Hawke likes it or not.

Isabela values fun, freedom and getting ahead; she responds well to sarcasm. Jokes, flirting and a Hawke who solves problems in particularly clever and devious ways will delight her. She also approves if Hawke is slightly selfish in dealing with other people, trying to squeeze a little extra money out of them.

Getting involved in other people's business tends to annoy Isabela, so helping a character just for the sake of helping and not asking for a reward will often earn her ire. She also generally disapproves of rules and authority and attempts by Hawke to enforce rules on other people especially her. Another thing to note is that in some cases, Isabela will also respond well to Hawke's decision to not get involved at all in matters of no immediate concern to Hawke or their companions. Butting in to personal discussions, disagreements, and the like will sometimes irk Isabela.

This is especially true with people Hawke has never met before. Isabela was the first romance option announced for both male and female Hawke. It is possible to pursue a romance through proper dialogue in Act 2 and eventually solidify it in the final moments of Act 3.

However, like Fenris, Isabela will not move into the Hawke Estate. Keeping the Isabela Romance: Isabela is usually the first romance to become available, thus, if a player wishes to keep her as the primary love interest, they may encounter certain challenges. Generally speaking, if another companion is romanced and moves in with Hawke, the move automatically breaks off all other romances, including Isabela who will never move in. However, that does NOT mean it is safe to romance other characters as long as they don't move in.

It is confirmed 1. In other words, even if you sleep with Merrill and immediately break it off at the first possible opportunity right after sex , you will most likely have terminated the Isabela romance regardless. In such a case, you can and likely will end up without either romance.

But if you want to sleep with Merrill and afterwards romance Isabela, the solution is to simply not speak to Isabela in Act 2 until you had sex with Merrill and broke the romance afterwards.
