Godwin

Godwin is a human mage found in the Senior Mage Quarters of the Mage's Tower.

Background
He first appears during Broken Circle hiding in a closet from the battle. Immediately after the main fight, he can be seen in the Apprentice Quarters near the children. Godwin is also part of a lucrative blackmarket in Lyrium, with most of the trade going to Templars who have become hopelessly addicted to the drug during their training. The Grey Warden persuades Godwin to stop adding on to the Templars addiction to lyrium. Godwin thinks about this and decides to start helping the Templars end their addiction to lyrium. He begins studying lyrium and its effects. Godwin is sent by the First Enchanter to Orzammar to gather as much lyrium as possible to help the Templars with their addiction. When Godwin arrives in Orzammar, he is confronted by his old partner, Rogek. They begin arguing and a fight ensues. Rogek is slain, and Godwin flees into The Deep Roads. He discovers Caridins Cross, and finds many hidden treasures. He brings these back to the Circle and studies them. One item in particular is Heaven's Wrath, a staff made by dwarves many years before for one of their kings. Godwin then began to use the staff and after some time was approached by a hooded figure. The hooded figure turned out to be a blood mage, who ended up slaying Godwin and escaping with the staff.
