Dragon Age Series
dragonage.bioware.com/dao/witch_hunt
Price: $7 [560 BioWare Points, 560 MS Points, $6.99 PSN]
Key Features:
* Confront Morrigan in this dramatic conclusion to the Origins storyline
* Earn powerful rewards that transfer into your Awakening and Origins campaign
* Import your character from Origins or Awakening or create a new, high-level hero!
Apparently three new characters will show up, but for now they're only letting us see one: "Ariane, a gifted Dalish warrior".
There are some screenshots up, but as usual, they don't really say much.
Date: Available September 7th on PC, Xbox360, and PS3."Never follow me." With these words, Morrigan vanished into the shadows. Her plans and her whereabouts have remained a mystery... until now. But whether you seek answers, revenge, or reconciliation with your lost love, you may find more than you bargained for.

Witch Hunt is the final DLC for Dragon Age: Origins, and imo a great send off to an awesome game.
What happened to "2 years..."? Dragon Age 2.

A few notes on stats:
Your adjusted stats are low (71). Even the original stats are still below average (80) and I doubt anyone would accuse you of powergaming if you kept them (and you can just swap DEX and WIS and you have a legal mage->priest dualclass).
I'm usually the first to whine about overpowered NPC ideas, but as nice as it is to see someone take it in the opposite direction, you don't have to go that far. Even if you bump up your current WIS by one point, you'd still only end up with 72 points, and you definitely don't need to reduce them any more than that. (I'm not going to stop you if you want to do it, of course, but anyway.)
As for the class, it's no more complicated to do a necro->cleric dual than a wiz->cleric. It's just a matter of clicking mage->necro rather than mage->generalist in character creation.
- Average stat totals for BG2 characters is 82.5 (83.2 in ToB).
- The lowest stat total is Minsc with 73. (The highest is Keldorn with 89, beaten only by Mr. ToB with 95).
- All characters have at least one stat that is average (10) or worse. (You have this covered.)

Cerberus network? What Cerberus network. 
Personally, I have like 80 Bioware FUNBUCKS™ left and I'll be fucked if I buy another 400 just to get another 80. Maybe if they ever release any other dlc that's worth paying for, but eh.
On the plus side, at least female version has a chestplate that isn't like HAY EVERYBODY LOOK AT MAH BOO-BAYS. Also, the rifle is apparently the only weapon in the game that doesn't have a dumb and crippling damage penalty when used by anyone not named Shepard, so it's actually quite good.
Here's a couple of stolen screencaps of the Kestrel:
edit: also the stats of the armour pieces are as follows:

I dunno, I like a little more RP in my G.
Still, won't deny that I liked the low-level gameplay in BG better than the "oh, I'll just buy this Rod of Resurrection" stuff in BG2.

(...at least that's what I'm told, but it doesn't show up on my dlc menu.)
It's called the "Firepower DLC Pack" and contains the following:
M-5a Phalanx Heavy Pistol
M-96 Mattock Heavy Rifle
Geth Plasma Shotgun
160 funbux. I'd say Cerberus Network? What Cerberus Network? except I already did.
Anyway, it's about time they released that damn pistol. It's been hanging around screenshots since what, before Kasumi came out? That's pretty slow.

Geth Plasma Shotgun
When a "heavy" pistol won't do the job, the Phalanx brings the bang! It hits like a hand cannon and features an integral laser sight for a whole new aiming experience! Ever wanted a sniper rifle without the scope or an assault rifle without the recoil? The Mattock heavy rifle is a hybrid of the two, a semi-auto beast usable with any class with an assault rifle skill! The Geth Plasma Shotgun is a three-barreled monster that creates plasma the right way -- on impact! Charge it up for even greater damage, or blast away rapid-fire at longer ranges than normal shotguns

"Big words are hard right now!"
Edit: The game looks pretty interesting, if they can live up to the hype.
Which no one ever does.
So it's probably going to suck.
Just saying.

Questions on how to mod the game should go in modding help.

"Upon casting this spell the wizard is allowed to choose a spell out of his repertoire of known spells. One spell level for every three levels of the caster is allowed up to 18th level or 6th level spells. Once the spell is chosen the caster is allowed to choose a condition of some kind from the list provided. The starting condition can be anything from reaching 10% of his/her hit points to an enemy being sighted. Once this starting condition is satisfied the spell that was chosen will be cast automatically."
You get one spell, the level of which can not be greater than [caster level]/3 or six, whichever is lower. The spell is functioning as intended.
Chain Contingency (wiz9) offers more options.

I like how the reaper is looking at them. (And how it's grinning like an ass, but it may not have a choice in that matter.)

Anyway I hope it's made of Shifty Looking Cow.

Let's not get into the "artist's impression of other parts of Tali" ones.
