Playing DA for a second time and stumbled across a familar (and very memorable) character from the Baldur's Gate saga. In a Denerim tavern is a lovely woman named Edwina in red robes. What a laugh! Anyone else seen this? Or does anyone know about some similar easter eggs?

Thanks for pointing that out! I never noticed it the first time, but I'll keep an eye out for Edwina the next time I play DA.

I wonder if she comes back for Dragon Age 2.

Lets hope, with lots of references to 'simians' and so :D

Yep I also noticed that, and is curious because short ago I thought of a story where Edwin (Edwina) would be offered a "dispel scroll" in exchange for his services.

Actually it seems there are many similar easter eggs as detailed in dragonage.wikia.com/wiki/Easter_Eggs the most notable being (aside from Edwin) Gaxkang, an obvious reference to the demilich Kanggaxx.
