Posting on the official BioWare forums, community coordinator Chris Priestly announced that in the second DA2 DLC adventure, Mark of the Assassin, Hawke will meet the mysterious Tallis -- voiced by and with the likeness of Day -- and partner up with her to steal an ancient relic from a fortress-like estate. Check the trailer:
And it appears BioWare is once again hoping to appease Dragon Age: Origins fans with some of the design elements in the DLC. Priestly states: "Mark of the Assassin features new items, new enemies and monsters and new environments as well as giving players the opportunity to experience a new, tactical way to play with the return of Stealth gameplay. Plus, along with the new environments and monsters, you will learn more about the Orlesians and Qunari."
Day, famous for her web series The Guild, filmed a live-action, six-episode Dragon Age web series with BioWare back in January called Dragon Age: Redemption. That series was originally set to begin airing sometime during the summer. While BioWare has not confirmed a new release date for Redemption, the series appears primed for launch alongside the Mark of the Assassin DLC.
Dragon Age II: Mark of the Assassin will be available for download on October 11. The DLC is priced at $10 or 800 Microsoft Points.
Spy Guy says: Mark of the Assassin looks like Dragon Age's version of a Hollywood heist flick. Sounds good to me. And I look forward to using Tallis to do some stealthy backstabbing.
