Among them were projects for Neverwinter Nights, WarCraft, Diablo and Quake--just to name a few. In late September 2009, he started to develop this blog with the support of BioWare/EA.
New gameplay trailers, screenshots and a new character
Fernando Melo, BioWare’s Online Producer, returned from a number of press events with a lot of cool new Awakenings orientated stuff:
First of all, a new character has been revealed by the name Sigrun–A Dwarfen burglar, of all things.
There is only one way to leave the Legion of the Dead: by fulfilling a vow to die in battle against the enemies of Orzammar, a sacrifice that absolves any guilt. Sigrun craves a chance to prove she is more than a worthless gutter-rat, but it’s hard to rush headlong into a battle you won’t survive.
See Sigrun in action
Check out our Awakening character page for more information about Sigrun including a nice slideshow of some really cool screenshots of her.
Additionally, BioWare released two brand new gameplay trailers which we have already uploaded at YouTube for your viewing pleasure. You will also get to see some previously unseen footage of awakenings in action. Those two new videos are also available on our Awakening page.

We also give you some brand new screenshots. Again, check the Awakening page to view all the Awakening screenshots in a fancy slideshow.
Finally, we have a new poll too. Will you be buying Dragon Age: Origins Awakening? Cast your vote on the right.

Yeah … I'm in the pre-order pool ;)
I love Dragon Age, love Return to Ostagar, and will likely enjoy this as well! Hopefully all of the Mac stuff gets resolved, but that isn't going to stop me enjoying my PC version!

Maybe Oghren will die in "Awakening", so he does not exist when you continue "Origins" with all of your important characters :)

Not exactly, they've been saying that Oghren will be playing a role in Awakenings since the first trailer. Such a statement is normally followed by a comment that a lot of characters from Origins will be making cameos.
Don't take anything as being 100% until it is actually said straight as a ruler, that Oghren is returning.
