Dual-wielding rogues can equip weapons classified as "daggers" of various shapes and sizes.

I'm still curious as to why you went with "daggers" when "light blades" seem to fit better into what the weapon group actually contains, based on the precious little info we have about the matter. It's your call as you certainly have more information than us, but the choice of label here seems quite straightforward.


I'm not sure exactly why we called them "daggers" instead of "light blades", but for DA2, "that's what they were called in Origins" is a good guess.

Interesting, and what is the longest size, to your
knowledge?


To my knowledge? A little smaller than the typical warrior sword-and-shield sword. Keep in mind I'm an engineer, not a props artist nor a weapons designer. I don't have the props bible at hand, nor have I seen every item of every class in game.

Oh...nothing says class-handicap quite like class weapon limitations. I guess a rogue didn't invent a black jack in the world of Thedas? Hopefully rogue Hawke doesn't get captured and is forced into the situation of using an impromptu weapon or his/her hands.

Rogue Hawke: "Eww, a club, I could never use such a dreadful thing to escape with, I sure hope we come across some daggers! I can only use daggers even in dire situations of survival. What is that...a long sword? Omg...never! I'll just punch them instead and do my artful backflip animations. Yippee!"


Thankfully, all classes still have access to the Murder Knife for use in getting out of just such a tight spot. You don't want to know where Hawke keeps it.
