Hawke first meets Anders after Varric directs them to seek out a Grey Warden who possesses knowledge of the Deep Roads. He is found at his clinic in
Kirkwall's Darktown giving aid to refugees, healing them free of charge. He convinces Hawke to help rescue his friend Karl from the templars in return for maps of the Deep Roads, but finds that he has been rendered Tranquil, effectively a form of lobotomy which renders the victim unable to feel any emotions. It is then revealed that the spirit of Justice now manifests itself as a spirit of Vengeance, an unintentional side effect of Anders' anger and hatred towards the templars. As a result, Anders struggles to maintain control of his own body and mind, and is eventually driven to become a terrorist in the name of mage rights. During the climax of Act III, Anders destroys the Kirkwall Chantry, killing the Grand Cleric and several others. This in turn gives Knight Commander Meredith the opportunity to invoke the Rite of Annulment, an order to kill all the mages in the Kirkwall Circle, without official sanction from a Grand Cleric or the Divine. Hawke has the option of executing Anders for his crime, banishing him, or ordering him to fight and make amends. Each companion will react to how Hawke chooses to deal with Anders' fate in their own way, positive or negative. Meredith's actions in response to Anders' terrorist act sparked the Kirkwall Rebellion, which eventually escalates into the Mage-Templar War observed in

During this time he met Justice, a spirit from the metaphysical realm known as the Fade, who is stranded in the decomposing body of a dead Warden named Kristoff. The spirit struggled to understand the real world and its inhabitants, leading him to engage Anders in some in-depth discussions about the world's problems, and eventually about the plight of mages throughout Thedas. For his personal quest, he asks the Warden-Commander to help him find his phylactery, which allows the templars to trace his whereabouts, and destroy it.

To compare mages to a contemporary social minority, Brice suggested, would lend a perspective which complicates the player's thinking of both Anders and social change. Brice concluded that what the game really compels the player to consider is whether "blowing up the
