Not sure you are really giving him a shot. IMO he seems the best option to bridge the mage templar issue. Any other chars in the game you feel are up to that?

Yep, the one who had the hots for a Mage in DA:O and went slightly crazy from the torture. By the end of this go-round, he'd moved from "Kill them all and let the Maker sort it out!" to "It was worse in Ferelden and we spared some of those Mages. Aren't you going a little nuts, Meredith?" He wasn't my ideal LI, but he was a lot further along the road to my ideal than either choice I actually had. (And that ain't sayin' much.)
You know, as a female mage in origins, I actually really liked Cullen. He was kind of cute, embarassing me in front of everyone, and all that. (Just unfortunate that he never talks a word to you again, once you free him.
But in DA2, he leveled up from "cute, confused and whiny" which isn't perfect, but tolerable, to "Lawful righteous retard" and I just desperately want to murder him, so I don't have to see his godawful haircut again.

Given what I saw him do, and heard him say, I'd probably, among others, put forward Ser Varnell and the Dog.
Seriously though, speaking as an author, why would anyone want to ruin a wonderful story with peace negotiations?

I understand. As much as you can interact with him....not even a single flirt option.
The first time you meet him him...steeled and poised to strike. After come to find, there is thought and a heart under there. **sigh**
However the end scene gives me hope he'll return.
At the very least he would make an excellent party member.

I guess we should be content he even made a showing in DA2? No, I guess not.Carmen_Willow wrote...
You know what amazes me? WE all told Bioware how much we (or many of us) liked Teagan in DA:O. The Teagan-love was voluminous! And yet, do we have a Teaganesque LI in this tale? Nope! Not a one.

Male HeteroHawkes have a similar problem.
It's either Mental Merril (admittedly adorable) or Isabonka.
There's a distinct lack of normality in DA2 romances. At least we get a bit of contrast though, whereas the Lady HeteroHawkes just have two flavours of emo to choose from.
Aveline + Sebastian for LI's!
You can have Sebastian..but he wants a Chaste marriage.
When I saw that I was like "Wtf, no?"
And I thought, "What a waste of gorgeous DNA. No thanks."

Dragon Age does not do normal love interests.

If you want a stress free relationship, go with Isabela. No drama, no strings attached, just enjoy it when you can get it.
I usually only pick male romances for my female characters, but it seems like the only sane LI in DA2 is Isabela. Sure she's slippery as hell, but I can't really blame her for it considering the kind of life she leads.
What a wasted opportunity indeed.

Sebastian REALLY could have done with some good ol' fashioned corruptin'. It would have made the romance more interesting, especially since Sebs wasn't always such an extreme servant of the Maker. How bad would it have been for him to live a little again? As far as I know, it's not directly mentioned anywhere that Maker thinks premarital sex is bad...

Premarital...not sure he even goes that far after marriage.
I know this sounds silly...but after I finish the few plays I want to in this game...I'm going back to Origins.

LOL! And I saw him as maturing into himself; confident in his beliefs; and serious about his job without being overly fanatical. And I liked his haircut, but what can I say? He'd sort of become a Templar Aveline my BFF in this game.
