I'm going to go ahead and say (out of speculation) that she will be a guardian type. However that doesn't mean that you won't be able to arrange her talents any way you want.

The darkspawn beat-em up scene is more of a reflection on her character... I think :P 

I plan on using her as my main tank, mostly because I want to be the guy dishing out the melee dps :bandit:

I think her spec will have more of a Guardian vibe myself, going by what we know about her. She'll be my main tank, certainly. I will use the improved combat in DA2 to play with Two-handed weapons this time around. :D

Also, 100 (rather, 101) pages! Way to go!

And THIS is likely the reason that I play a male mage for Aveline.  She will like me....
eventually..... :ph34r:


Most of the time I'm having trouble RP-ing as a fem character. No idea why, but I never get around to finish it for some reason. But I make up for it with my normal characters =P

I like playing female charcters...just never play them as often as I should...probably because I think all the female LI's are nothing but eye candy with crap personalitys (cept Alistair lol)

It is the darkest of days, Kirkwall lies besieged by the dreadnoughts of the qunari fleet whose cannons have brought low the twin sentinels of the sea gate and now pound the walls of the city as they sail into the harbour mouth.
The city guard and the peasant levy huddle behind the battlements of the sea wall, their nerve shattered by the ferocity of the qunari guns and the alien chanting of the invaders. Only their captain the proud warrior Aveline strong right hand of the champion shows no fear, she stands atop the walls and watches the approaching ships her fiery mane flying free in the high winds and in her hand a blade of naked steel.
In a clear voice that echoes from the high cliffs the warrior woman begins to sing the battle anthem of the men of Kirkwall and one by one the guard stand to join their captains call to arms until their battle song drowns out both the thunder of the guns and the chanting of the qun.

Men of Kirkwall stop your scheming, can't you see their ships are nearing.
Hear their mighty cannons screaming, as they come to war.
Men of Kirkwall stand ye steady, it cannot be ever said ye,
For the battle were not ready. Freemen never yield.
From the cliffs resounding, let our song be sounding.
Sommon all at champions call, the heathen foe surrounding.
Men of Kirkwall on to glory, this will ever be your story.
Keep the makers words before ye, kirkwall will not yield.

With respects to the men of Harlech and Rorkes drift.
100 pages well done ladies and gents.


And Bloth?...once again sir...

Excellent job good sir.

Well, the Garrus & Thane romances were quite sweet in my oppinion. 
My favorite romance, overall and for the moment, wasn't made by BioWare tbh. I'm talking about Visas Marr and the Exile in Kotor2. There wasn't any 'action' so to speak :P , but the feeling conveyed was brilliant. Then they ruined it with the cannon fiasco, but I chose to ignore it, so let's not even mention that.

I'm looking forward to see if BioWare can change my oppinion however. With Aveline I hope ;)

If it makes you feel any better, I never make it as a male.  :wizard:   
They are all too huge and manly-man-ish, which, is kind of freaky. lol  
I knew a guy like them in RL - 6'8, body builder sort with 3 degree black belt.  Someone took a picture of us walking holding hands .... saw it later:  it looked ridiculous like taking your 5 year old to school.... scared the crap outta me. LOL   

Even in mmorpg I have a hard time playing a male if there is a choice to be female.  I am a no-nonsense chick, and physically strong, nobody pushes me around, but very female.   I can do it, it just is more "work" to do it well and comfortably.  I guess it just boils down to preferences in the end, which is cool :) 

i will try though!!!  For Aveline! lol   It is more worth it in Bioware games anyway where the reactions to you can be different depending on your gender. :)  In mmorpg, there is no difference, other than clothes really.

I liked Thane :)  Of course, I liked Jack too. She rocked.  The funniest thing is, I played all the KOTOR games without ever realizing there was such a thing as relationships at all.  

:lol:

I was mainly refering to the DA romances (yes even DA2's -hides behind fangirl proof glass-)And Jacob...but lets not talk about THAT one....KOTOR 2's was actually pretty good Visas was good especially. But KOTOR 2 was a slow and painful disapointing death for me. Let's not talk about that half finished...thing anymore....Carth Onasi had a crap personality, Kaiden was a copy & paste job as far as I'm concerned. Garrus, while funny as hell...seems kinda weird to me. Thane...well...thats just a typical James Bond fantasy for the ladies as far as I'm concerned. (reinforces his fangirl proof glass)

Hehehehe, nice story Shanti :D  
Indeed, in mmos there isn't much of a difference. Well... until the Old Republic comes around of course :devil: 
The Kotor games indeed didn't put much importance on romance. The first one was about saving the galaxy, while the second was about answering a question.

Although, they are a great example at how great a romance subplot can be, without using graphical scenes . And I cannot accentuate this statement enough, especially when people talk a lot about the Fox News incident and what led afterwards.

BioWare does a great job in my oppinion with their *fade to black* thing. But now I'm heading off-topic way too much, and I hope this won't attract any negative responses, especially on this thread.

Ok... back on topic... please let Aveline be a LI, you kind people at BioWare :P

I swear that Aubrey Ashburn has the voice of an angel <3  

Now that reminds me of something...

In DAO we had Leliana singing.
In ME2 we had Mordin singing.

Lord, I hope we get someone this time too :D  I would suggest Aveline, but let's keep the LI thing the only wish for now ^_^

Maybe this time Varric will sing.
A dwarven song wouldn't be bad...right?
Also greetings to everyone since I am new to the thread.

I suggested on the live chat thread for either Merrill/Fenris/Anders/Aveline to be in the party (with Fem Hawke :wizard:), since we've seen enough of Izzie and Varric...Hopefully Mike will understand our feelings and do so :D

I can't wait to hear Lady Hawke's voice! I mainly play as a fem in games (if given the chance) so this is important to me. when i play male characters i feel like i am watching someone else, when i play as a girl i feel like i am watching myself somehow. =]

I don't see Mr. Laidlaw saying no to the fangirls. Mr. Gaider maybe, but not Mike :devil:  
Imagine what would happen if we hear Merrill: the whole BioWare community would go "awwwwwwwww" at the same time =))

Different strokes for different folks. ^.^ I never pretend the characters are me in any Bioware game. I think of myself as Obi-Wan helping Luke fulfill his destiny.

You are thinking about this stuff too much mate ;) 

The first time I saw/heard that scene, my mouth stood open the entire time, and a full minute afterwards. I was stunned. Following the feelings that the story tries to convey is one of the most important things for me.


Whenever I play, unfortunatley I can't really see myself as my character. I mostly see them for what they are: protagonists in a great tale. And most of the time I grow close to them.

Somehow, I can't really imagining Aveline having her spirits lift because of a dwarven song.

Maybe an epic face palm because of the lyrics but...
