Why exactly is the woman naked, again?

If there's one thing I have learned, it's never to ask that question. If there's a nude woman, just roll with it.

I...I hope that's the case.

Because seriously the minute I saw she was naked I was like "If that's actually an element of Dragon Age: Awakening's storyline, that this warrior chick is just randomly naked, I'm not buying this game."

I prefer blaming DFM.

Well, really it's "He downloads nude mods, and was wearing the warden keep equipment that is incompatible with the expansion, so it was taken away from him when he imported."

Normally she'd have been in either whatever armor she was wearing at the end of Origins, or (in the case of wearing the warden stuff) in the normal burlap underwear everyone else wears.

The actual answer is: Armor is for scrubs.

You use their confiscated weapons to arm the town guard and the militia and rebuild the town in a matter of days while keeping it safe from opportunistic bandit raids.

I got it on the first try I had no idea it was supposed to be hard.

Maybe you just have to be a decent person.

MAYBE YOU SHOULD READ THE OP I WENT THROUGH ALL THE TROUBLE OF WRITING AND TAKING SCREENCAPS FOR.

I'm not the one who was talking about all the completely terrible things he wants to do to Nathaniel Howe.

But actually, from what I've gathered, you can convince the revolt to back down easier if you're a terrible person. Apparently putting guards on the trade route, instead of in populated areas, makes it easier, as does executing the deserter, and flogging the thief. I chose none of those options, so. But there's also talk of people who didn't do any of that, or only doing half of it, getting it, etc.

Whether you manage it or not seems to be set up on like a million different variables from what I've read on the DA forums.

I put guards on the trade roads and left the fields and city to fend for themselves because the last time I did this was NWN2 and that was all like TRADE TRADE TRADE. I don't remember the deserter, but I made the thief join the army.

I also imprisoned that noble dude who pretty much probably murdered my friend/ally even though I didn't have much proof.

Proof is for people who aren't Lady Godiva.

You get the murderer OR the deserter, I'm not sure what decides which you get. I got a deserter. And let her join the army again.

how did you guys deal with the nobles that were plotting to kill you?
i hired that wolf dude and the results felt pretty unsatisfying. he finds where they're meeting and then you go kill them and that's the end of it and you never talk about it ever again
