Dammit. Guess I won't be playing with the Default face since it can't be edited...

Yay! The Emporium sounds neat!

Barkspawn Jr. awaits. By the way, will it take a full companion slot in the party, or will it be like the Origins' ranger pets, allowing Hawke to have 3 companions and the mabari in a group?

I really want to thank Bioware for implementing an in-game appearance modifier/customizer. I have long wanted this feature!

Would not surprise me it is like the 'extra dog slot'-mod that lets dog appear as a ranger pet.
Works the same like that mod -> whistle.

I loved dog in DA:O and I'm really happy we will get another one. ^^

Fadeshear! Finally, a preorder item with a non-corny name.

Also, I don't want to think about the amount of RRRRRAAAAAAAAGEEEE that will occur because of this Black Emporium appearance thingy being DLC.

It sounds quite intriguing. I lol'd at the thought of using "strange and powerful magics and items" to change Hawke's stubble.
Is this Mabari a companion like Dog or is he (she?) a mere combat prop?

 Guys! More info on the Black Emporium that I pulled from Steam...(Yes, it's finally on Steam!)

Bonus Content: The Black EmporiumNestled deep under Kirkwall, you'll find a market with a curious collection of items, some for sale, some for free, and ranging from the mundane to the mysterious! One artifact can even transform your very body, face, hair, eyes—all new! We've even granted you your very own mabari war hound to call to your side with a whistle—a boon in battle and a beloved pet at home. Visit the Black Emporium today, and you’ll be the envy of adventurers everywhere. Your invitation awaits!

The Black Emporium features:

A magic item store that has some of the best equipment you’ll find in the game. It’s restocked with better items as you progress through the story.

A loyal mabari hound that fights at your side in battle.

The “Mirror of Transformation”. Gaze into it and you can change your very appearance. Hair, eyes, tattoos, and more can be changed with the click of a button.

A crafting store which sells powerful unique recipes.

Explore the Black Emporium and uncover its strange secrets and lore. Be sure to see its strange proprietor. It should prove most… memorable.
