My first reaction is to hug her and pinch her cheeks, while telling her how cute she is. This will then be followed by a slap and an arrow pointed directly at my throat.

You mean get slapped with an arcane bolt and then inferno.

But we don't know how she'll act.. She still be someone you can take seriously. You can be cute, and also be confident, and serious.. Being cute doesn't diminish her value.. 

She looks 12.   I keep waiting for the Dalish to be the fierce warriors that are described in the lore and had hoped we would finally see that in DA2 versus the fairly whimsical presentation in Origins.

Thats asinine.. You can be a "fierce warrior" and not look like your had your face run over by a garbage truck. 
Discriminating on her because she's cute or nice looking is dumb. Her being cute or having a cute personality doesnt make her any less of a fighter/mage/healer whatever..

Uh... at least she wiped off the ugly makeup?

If you're talking about the tattoos, they're still there. Basically they took her Origins look, made her more "cute," and gave her a giant rack.

No, she had bright pink eyeshadow and purple lips. Also, for the last time...

I thought the presentation was fairly appropriate.  I think the Dalish see themselves as fierce warriors and have an oral history that may or may not be accurate, but in the larger scheme of things--from the outside looking in--they're pretty insignificant and not all that frightening.  They are allowed to live in lands that other people don't want.  The glory has faded.

Well I do want to survive the first meeting, even though I am acting like a spaz.

But it's so fun to pick at the giant rack! It's like Carver's Herp face, it's got to be milked for all its comedic value before it is taken from us!

And yes, the milking pun is intentioned.

She is very cute... But a little young looking.. Do I have it in me to romance her?

I think she looks old enough. Looks like I get my female elf romance after all.

Oh sure, but I 'd run in abject terror if Dobby grew some hair, had some DD's strapped on and was called an elven LI.

I'm sure Merrill will be a fine character, I just think her design is utterly ridiculous looking and considering the implications she might be an LI, rather creepy. She looks like a kid, not an adult like she did in Origins.

Loghain was scared of them.  If this is what Loghain was scared of, I'm taking the signature down now.  LOL

The problem with a party member that's so adorable is priorities.

Hawke and Aveline have been separated from the rest of the party and now face a though choice, they can either run to help Fenris that's being attacked by two ogres or they can help Merrill in her battle against a fearsome nug. What will they do?

Hawke: Don't you hurt my Merrill you wicked creature!
Merrill: It's okay I got this.
Fenris: Uhm guys? A little help please?
Hawke: Die you vicious murderous beast!
*Hawke heroically turns the nug into minced meat*
Fenris: GUYS?!
*Fenris goes splat*
Hawke: It's all right now Merrill, the terrible beast is gone! 
*Hawke hugs Merrill* 
Merrill: Get off me I'm fine! Go help Fenris.
Aveline: Yeah, about that...

Oh my gosh people do I have to list down all the cute tough character's I seen from video games? I think Merrill looking like this gives a unique feeling as well to the part.



Personally I am happy that we are getting a cute female character and if she is an LI I will so be playing as M!Hawke!

Until I know more, I'm expecting a little girl trying to boss me around. Cute, but bossy.

But then I'd want to mock her angryface. Not sure if game would allow that.

Merril: We must protect the elves!
Hawke: That's adorable.
Merril: Too long have we suffered under the tyranny of you flat ears!
Hawke: Awwww.
Merril: You stupid shem, *****. I'm talking revolution here! Overthrowing the humanarcy! Fire and bloodshed in the streets. *shakes tiny fist in rage*
Hawke: *pets* 

I so just imagined her with a cute squeaky voice.<3

OH MY DEAR JEEBUS, WHY DOES SHE LOOK SO DAMN ADORABLE??!! She reminds me of the puppies in the window at the pet shop... Can I have her, mommy, can I???! *slaps self hard*

I've never squeed for a female character before... well there was Sigrun, but this is a whole new level of squee. It's weird how cute she appears to be, while back in DAO, she came across as very very serious and... not so adorable.

[RogueWriter3201]

I can't believe I'm saying this...I mean, I *really* can't, but, after seeing the video and the Merril moment, I think there's a rather significant chance that this "Girl next door" (Yes, Maria, I'm aware that David said, "Grain of Salt," and all that) might be my new Canon love interest, *if* said option is even on the table.

I don't know, I'm just insanely drawn to her. Not for the Cutie gum-drops and loli-pops reasons so many others seem to be on about, but rather just because there's something...I don't know...I want to say "Wholesome" and maybe "Delicate," but knowing next to nothing about the character, save for her tiny bit of screen time in DAO, its hard to peg that down.

What makes this such a quandry for me is the the fact that I was (well, still am) a die-hard Aveline-a-******. I mean I've gone on, and on...and on, about how "Super Mega Awesome," Aveline appears and how fascinating it would be to follow a Romance with her; heck, even in the Dev Video we see a snippit of dialogue that hints at that aforementioned observation. None the less...wow, Merril just has my full and complete attention now.

(Pause)

Darn you Mary Kirby!!!

P.S. How amazing is the new Elven Female model? When Mike Laidlaw mentioned they'd gone back and really done an overhall on the entire race, he wasn't kidding. Both delicate, familiar, and just slightly alien; exactly what another wood-land Humanoid species should be.

It's not that she's "cute", it's that she looks like a 13 year old with 30 year old breasts

If you're referring to TST, that's because they were two lightly armed men deep in their territory.  The deck was as heavily stacked against him as it could be (more than if he had been alone, even).

[ReiSilver]

... I really hope this particular picture is making her look younger then she'll look from other angles... the way it is I'm praying she's not a LI cause... you know...squick, even if she gets older over the 10 years it reeks of grooming and... *feels ill*. Which isn't saying she wouldn't be a good character, you don't need to be a LI to be a good character.

Merrill is the Dalish mage that helps you in the Dalish origin isn't she? I liked her! She looked fine! Why is she suddenly 12? Or is this a different Merrill? Do all elven women look like this now? What? Fenris looks like an adult so, why? ow, my head *frets*

More screenshot needed!

You're basically judging them only by appearance.

if you look Mr.Gaider already pointed out, that the reason behind that was because of the outfit, so hopefully that will be fixed

Her breasts being smaller wouldn't help. She would still look like a thirteen year old. She probably would look more "thirteeny" with smaller breasts.
