Someone made a joke? 




Seriously though, on-topic: Female Qunari. We could see their world through different eyes with different opinions. You get the very real impression in DA1 that Sten is not at all a reliable source of information on anything other than the literal works of the Qun. He thinks that he only needs one lens: The Qun. Which is why the idea of a woman warrior confuses the heck out of him: It doesn't fit his rigid, dogmatic and blind understanding of "how things are". He has trouble reconciling this contradiction because he isn't allowed to reconcile contradictions. The Qun is ALWAYS right, so if something seems to "contradict" then there is evil witchcraft afoot! Something must not be as it seems!

A female qunari would bring a whole new area of understanding to us. A very very sexy and strong area of understanding.

... though the female qunari concept art makes them look less scary compared to the male one, i am still not up to the idea of a female romacable character who is able to hurl my hawke through a wall...



stick with the basics... one dark-haired human woman, one fair-haired elven woman, and a male-romacable... human this time around cause last one was an elf...

I would be so disappointed if BioWare merely did a retread on the romances. =\\ I don't want another dark-haired nietzche wannabe who tortures puppies and kittens. Most of all because I know BioWare wouldn't give us the option to execute them.

[Jacks Smirking Revenge]

Here I go at this


Grey Warden(Human): Would be hard to pull off since we know all the juicy details about the Wardens, but I still think it could be an interesting romance being on the otherside of the spectrum. Give her a tie to DA:O maybe she was in Alistair's Joining and the one that died was someone close to her(family or lover) and that could of been what Alistair implied when he said it was horrible. Say she ran off(To Free Marches) after that in guilt that she lived and not the person she cared for abandoning her duty and oath during a Blight, and now she seeks to redeem herself and not let that person die in vain. She sees this Hawke fellow who seems to be rising to power, so she tags along with him believing the cause he fights for is a good one and helping him would give her atonement for her regrets and suffering. I would base her personality off of a mix between Leliana and Mhairi. Give her the brief parts we could get from Mhairi(duty and loyalty) with Leliana's redeemer and optimistic outlook with a touch of naive-ness.

Malificar(Human) A Circle mage who was caught in a bad situation. Accused of killing a Templar and being a Blood Mage. She escaped from her execution and fled from the tower in Orlais to Kirkwall. She hears about this Hawke fellow and how his influence is growing, so she makes her bid to catch his attention knowing the Templars can and will find her long as they have her phlyactry, so she decides to use Hawke for protection. Her relationship with Hawke turns from a convience to love or friendship, but as her feelings grow Hawke finds out why she really offered to help and why she was being so nice to him. The truth is she used Blood Magic on a Templar who was forcing himself at her. She knew she couldn't stop him with normal spells, so she resorted to Blood Magic though unable to control the power of the spell killed the Templar. She claims it was the first and only time she has used Blood Magic. Give her a hardening quest to get her to use her Blood Magic or to not use it. Personality was something like Anders' view on Chantry/Templars/Circle with Alistair's sarcasm, goofy, and sweetness.

One word: Handholds.

She didn't. And if you'd read what I wrote, you'd have noticed that none of them do or did. But while ostensibly confident and independent on the outside, she still revealed a fatal flaw in her character that she needed Shepard to fix.

This being when you progress your relationship (any/all) with her far enough to find out just how insecure she is because of her grandfather's history and the treatment she's gotten because of it. And just how much it means to her that you've given her a break.

Maybe this game can have love interests that aren't total skanks(Zevran included). Seriously Leliana, Morrigan, AND Zevran were all pretty ****ty, even by todays standards.

Really? Where the hell do you live? Vatican City?

Okay, Zevran IS a ****, no argument. Well, I'd call him a hedonist and find it fully in line with his backstory. Coming from nothing and, given his job, having a limited life expectancy, hedonism is one way to deal with it.

But Morrigan and Leliana? I'm just not seeing it. Leliana, for all her faults, is super-sweet and Morrigan simply knows what she wants, even if she doesn't like to formulate it in any romantic way.

[Mr.Cousland_]

How about a stone cold certified Psychopath? I mean like a total nutcase, like Jack from ME2 but considerably...worse.



It'd be a fresh take, and even though the eventual "I love you and can accept it" convo would come, she'd never go into the familiar "You're all I need, and now I'm not crazy anymore because I love you!" road.

You forgot a Dwarf. And some people would LOVE to be thrown through a wall

[Aedan_Cousland]

I think the romance options should be very different characters from the romanceable options in the first game of the series both in terms of background and personality.

Wow...

Just...

Wow...

This is the one I'm going to end up remembering for the next eight months. And then seeing a female qunari in the game is gonna remind me of it.

Not sure how I feel about this...

No one tosses a dwarf!

Not what you were saying, but needed to be said anyway.

Just read the thread title again and wanted to make sure: Are you talking about DA2 and Hawke or about the Warden from the first game or maybe a completely different person?

this made me reread the title, am ashamed i didnt notice this before
it amazes me how many people are still calling the character in da2 the warden

[IndigoWolfe]

Wait, I just realized something: should there be a female qunari love interest, doesn't that mean she'd likely be including the accessaries Sten alluded to? Such as armor and a hot prodding iron?



Ouch. Although some people might be into that... I don't know.

I like challenge. I'd be amused if I could romance very dark and pessimistic character. Always wearing black, talking how misunderstood she is, how life is cruel and meaningless...save her once or twice from sucide run. Stop her from cutting herself, and drinking strange green concotions

Oh God no.  I would kill that charater first time they said kill him with the one shot knife

I want a feisty Dwarf female like Felsi, just to feed my fidget metish. I really like her.

I'm a sucker for the brainy lab girl archetype, myself. Someone like Abby from NCIS would be great, the more classical socially-awkward-with-spectacles is acceptable too. Actually, just having specs and working in a lab environment will probably do it for me.

Someone upbeat and most importantly, funny, will also rate highly on my scale. The kind of romance I enjoy the most is where you spend most of the build-up to it joking around and laughing with the other person. Once it gets there, mix it with the usual romantic shtick, and I'll be a happy gamer.

Oh, it goes without saying that in any case, I like it when at least half of the dialog for an LI comes AFTER your character is in a romance with them.

I hope she is  perfectly sculpted sex object that exists as a clever marketing ploy to sell copies of the game to stinking hordes of teenagers and romantically hopeless adult males. Bonus points if an illusion of "depth" can be maintained by giving her an archetypal personality and drowning the sex scenes in obtuse, rambling dialogue trees.

• Independent (read; definitely not clingy)
• Hard-to-know-easy-to-love
• Conflicted
• Intelligent (or if not intelligent, rather wise/insightful)
• Proud - while she should totally swoon for the masculinity-incarnate that is Hawke, she should be able to deal with some of her own problems at least.
• Attractive - okay lets be honest. Sure the fact that she should have a head on her shoulders is a plus, lets not fool ourselves into thinking that's the first thing we go for. She doesn't have to be a Sex Goddess (although sure that'll help) to be attractive. Being 'attractive' also means different things to different people.
