Short answer: Lady Hawke surrounded by hawt men of all races :wub: because I'm a fangirl at heart, even though I don't squee

Detailed answer:
Lady Hawke (healer+disabler) OR Lady Hawke (melee rogue)
Anders (caster)
Fenris (tank)
Varric (archer)
And if we can take 5 at annny point I might add Merril for the background story. She'll only be my buddy though if the men don't start flirting with her. :P

My original party group, before taking into account Nightmare difficulty and talents, was going to be Fem Hawke with Anders, Sebastian and Carver. Sort of a dark past theme with Anders as a LI, Sebastian because he's a cool customer and Carver as bodyguard and/or over protective brother. Unfortunately i'm a power gamer at heart, but my "buds" are matching up ok with my initial character plans:

Lady Hawke - Battle Mage: Spirit and Arcane trees maxed with fully evolved Stone Fist and Rock Armor. Definitely hoping Blood/Force Mage Specializations synergy well with the above.

Sebastian - Disorienting Rogue: Archery and Sabotage maxed to make him a disorient specialist, triggering extra damage from Hawke's Spirit talents and Stone Fist. The rest of his talents will be geared to high damage vs. one target to trigger Walking Bomb (which seems extremely dangerous now more so than in DAO).

Anders - Healing Mage, but probably not: Hopefully he's still a good healer, but his specialization seems more like a demon rage thing. If companions get a second specialization it will make it a lot easier, since I will just slap Spirit Healer on him just like old times. :)

Aveline, Fenris or Carver - Tank: I originally wanted Carver as a tank, but it seems Aveline out classes everyone (even warrior Hawke it seems) in that regard. If I do make Hawke a pretty solid armored Mage, then I will take Carver or Fenris for massive threat generation with 2-handed and throw barrier on him when a Walking bomb is about to go off.

/Power Gaming Off :P

I have been scratching my head about this for weeks.

Tank: Aveline. No question about it, she's the best in the game. Even if I spec'd Fenris the exact same way, her unique abilities make her superior. Plus I just want to know what's going on with her. She seems like a strong woman, both physically and mentally.

Rogue: Varric. This guy just oozes charm. Besides, if he's telling the story, I feel like he should be there.

2H warrior: Fenris. He's probably the "coolest" character, and I want to see what kinds of abilities his lyrium-infused body could give him. Besides, I feel like I need at least one elf on my team. His no-nonsense demeanor should add some practicality to the group.

Mage: Me OR Merril. I really haven't decided what class I'm going to play yet, but I'm leaning towards mage because that class has my favorite of the legendary Hawke armors (any news on whether or not we actually get to wear this in the real world, and not just in Varric's embellished stories?). I don't know much about Merril, but between her and Anders I'll take the one that isn't an Abomination.

All that said, the only for sure character is Aveline. I haven't 100% decided which class I'll play yet.

Bro/1st Play Party:
Male Mage- Offensive/Fire and Earth based Spells- DPS ('Black Mage' of the group)
Anders- Healing/Support ('White Mage' of the group)
Carver/Fenris- Tanking/Melee DPS (Warrior of the group)
Varric/Sebastian- Traps/Lockpicking/Ranged DPS ('Thief' of the group)

Girl Power Party:
Female Rogue- Controller/DPS
Aveline- Tank
Bethany/Merrill- Balanced (Offensive/Healing)
Isabela- Controller/DPS (because two rogues is more fun than one)

Whoever I like party:
Male Warrior- Two Hand Tank
Fenris or Isabela- Melee DPS (whoever I like better/more suitable)
Bethany, Varric, Sebastian or Merrill- Ranged DPS (I can see switching between them)
Anders- Healing (since he was a healer in Awakening, that's going to be his niche)
Aveline- Tank (in case I need an extra)

Haha I had sort of the same reaction, that's why I started thinking about it :D

Yeah, I get the feeling she's going to be a very deep character. Glad there are some other Aveline fans out there who aren't all "omg muscles make her ugly" or whatever.

It will likely change when I play the game and get to know the characters:

- Male Hawke: Healer/Support Mage
- Anders: DPS mage, LI if possible (or Carver if melee dps needed)
- Varric: funny rogue to spice things up
- Fenris: tank (if he can't tank, then Aveline)

It depends, in Origins I designated myself as the groups healer, with Alistair, Sten and Leliana/Zevran on my team, two warriors and a rogue who could pick locks.
But if Anders takes the healer role I'll probably have him with Fenris/Aveline and Varric, a warrior and a rogue who will shoot long-distance. Though out of Fenris and Aveline...I'm more of a Aveline fangirl so I'll likely be taking Aveline with me of the two.

But with Varric, I'm hoping to romance Isabela as F!Hawke so it would probably be Aveline, Isabela and Anders. As M!Hawke it will probably be Aveline, Varric and Anders.

Ok, I'm back, because after about 2 weeks of sleepless nights thinking about this question and reviewing the skill trees and meticulously planning I think I finally have it worked out! I'm going to need 3 playthroughs:

First playthrough usual party (when possible):
Female Hawke Rogue Archer w/ Anders LI
Anders, primarily to heal
Bethany, primarily to attack but can use heal in a pinch
Aveline, warrior tank, usually.

Second playthrough:
Female Hawke Mage - mostly for attack but can heal in a pinch - LI = ? (may want Anders again, may use Fenris)
Anders, primarily to heal
Sebastian rogue archer
Warrior tank Carver or Fenris depending on who I like better

Third playthrough:
Male Hawke Warrior Templar tank w/ Isabela LI
Isabela rogue duelist
Anders - primarily to heal
Bethany - primarily to attack, can heal

I'm heaving a huge sigh of relief - I was really struggling with this decision! Now I am anxious to see the specializations! That plan pretty well covers every skill and every companion I want to use.

Bethany, because she's not derpy and I need a mage since I'm not about to wear a silly robe into combat. Anders is a little girl, and if there's a plot excuse to kill/harm/make life miserable for him, I will take it with great pleasure. You can't trust a man who's a cat person. Oh, there's also Merill, but she looks like she's twelve. Nevermind how creepy it is that she's also a LI. 

Aveline, because I need a tank, and Carver will be dead. I've heard Fenris can tank as well, but he's a little elf. Don't they belong in the kitchen anyways?

Varric. Dwarves are the best.

Me. My first two play throughs will be as a warrior, than a rogue. 

None of the characters particularly interest me as LIs, but I'll romance them all in however many runthroughs it takes for the achievments. I guess I'll start with Isabella, as I'm sure that the sexual poster child will have had the most polish put into her LI scenario.

Rogue, tank and healer + me. Pretty much this, because of the way the game is designed.

It's hard to say who I would like to group with yet. I have not seen everyone's persona and such. I'll propably try things out. There aren't many options for a tank and it's a boring job. So I'll propably have Aveline with me from the start.

I really want to mix and match. I didn't take a static group during DAO or DAA because I enjoy the various interactions and banter. But I do think that I'll keep Varric with me almost constantly.

Hawke, nuker Mage
Anders, support Mage
Varric. nuker and CCer. And everyone must have a dwarf in their party. It's a rule.
Aveline, tank. Didn't like her at first, but he appears to be more interesting than I imagined.

Might replace Aveline with Fenris just too see him and Anders at each other's throats. But I hate ghelves, plus he's not an optimal tank, not that I will need one on Hard, if the demo is any indicator of this difficulty level.
