Dragon Age: Origins The Golems of Amgarrak DLC Wiki Update

Another dose of The Golems of Amgarrak information has been posted to BioWare’s Dragon Age: Origins “Tome of Knowledge” wiki, with this latest page exploring “House Dolvish’s attempts to rediscover the secret of Caridin’s golems”.

Talk to a dwarf about golems, and you’ll get an earful about Caridin, the legendary Anvil of the Void, and Amgarrak. Amgarrak is the dwarven word for “victory,” but the halls of Amgarrak are considered a mere fairy tale.

Before Queen Getha was deposed, it is said that she delivered the only remaining fragments of Caridin’s research to House Dolvish. Legends say that House Dolvish bankrupted itself by establishing a secret research laboratory in the Deep Roads. With the help of a Tevinter magister, they sought to recreate Caridin’s work. Fedrik, the last scion of House Dolvish, promised the Assembly a new golem fresh from Amgarrak, knowing it would raise the Dolvish clan again to prominence. But when no golem materialized, Fedrik was ruined. He died years later, and with his death, House Dolvish was no more.

Over the centuries, golems with strange abilities have been found in the Deep Roads. Some say that this is either proof that Amgarrak is real or that Dolvish descendants still work to this day recreating golems. Others say that something went horribly wrong. The truth may never be known.
