I don't know if I should be furious or aroused. I'll do both.

I thought we've already established that he's got long curly hair possibly tied with a red bow at the back :happy:

Yup, I have another idea where the red bow could be tied to though. heeyo. 

It's only a few days away until E3. I can't wait. :happy:

 

lol 

New personal fantasy: Cullen in a kilt. 

He already has experience with skirts...

LOL, true!!!!!

LOL, it'll be interesting to see our noob protagonist around a bunch of veterans. I quite like the idea that the group is full of seasoned professionals in their own field, especially if those listed in the survey leak are our companions:

Iron Bull is a seasoned merc/fighter
Cullen is a seasoned warrior/templar
Cassandra is a seasoned warrior/Seeker
Sera is a skilled and seasoned thief/rogue
Dorian is a skilled and seasoned Tervinter magister

And then there's our protagonist, who's a noob thrown into the Inquisition under (currently) unknown circumstances LOL!

When you put it this way it does not sound very heroic. The inspirational story of the Inquisitor, who was a tag-along to a bunch of heroes... Oh the uproar of the masses

But we will be a noob. It's not really possible for our protagonist to have a heroic past like the others because otherwise we would've heard/known about him/her sooner. So we're still going to be a noob, even if we're a skillful noob.

Oh, I'm fine with that :] I was just laughing at those who don't like to share their kick-ass-ness.

LMVO! That's pure sex appeal, right there. Almost like blood magic!! 

[LolaLei]

It does make me wonder if the more experienced protagonists such as Cassandra and/or Cullen are gonna have a problem with not being "in charge", or if they're disciplined enough to just get on with it because the fate of the world is in peril/whatever.

[rapscallioness]

Ah, if Cullen was in prison for awhile I could see his hair all dreadlocked. He spent his time obsessively twisting his hair.



then he could have a dungeon prisoner specialization skill you'd have to set up in tactics. "when surrounded by at least 2 enemies activate "rastaman revenge" ability:



whip all surrounding enemies w/his dreads.....

[CuriousArtemis]

Cullen walks out of the dungeon with a fro... but in a kilt lol *o.O Confused, do not know how to feel*

I think in a situation like that, the protagonist would have to have a reason for the unquestionable authority, the way the Warden would have been steamrolled completely by Sten if s/he hadn't had GW status.

Someone like the Divine will probably give them the mandate, or they will have a vision or a connection to an artifact or a special ability or destiny that makes them qualified to lead the operation. I know a lot of people don't like "special snowflake" NPC's, but that's par for the course in fantasy RPG's.

Ok, I'm laughing now, but I love casual quilt look, even more so with dreadlocks

[rapscallioness]

This is what I want to know most in the "reveal". What exactly is the rationale for the PC to be heading this boondoggle up.

In DAO, the had to make Alistair a waffling idiot to make it happen. I hope they do better this time.

No, no... the kilt comes later!!   (in my fantasy...)

As for fro's.... I don't even know what to say.

Chances are we'd be assigned the title of Inquisitor (or whatever) and then we'd go and ask the likes of Cassandra and Cullen if they'd like to help us in our quest. That way it's their choice if they join us and thus have to follow orders. Rather than, say, the Divine saying "right, Cassandra off you go! Accompany the new Inquisitor on his/her epic journey" and her being like "bull****! I should be Inquisitor, I'm way more experienced than this noob!"

[brushyourteeth]

I did some more reading in the World of Thedas book last night, and I could actually see our protagonist being a Pentaghast. Apparently there are tons of 'em, and they're all skilled leaders and capable dragon-hunters. Plus family connections abound.

That would be enough to get us started, I think.

Not to mention that the book went out of its way to pound us with the idea that all the mummies are possession-magnets. I think it's safe to bet on us being in the tomb-cities of Nevarra for some reason or other no matter what...

Yeah, Alistair was also a noob so it made sense for him to pass the buck to the protagonist. Maybe this time our protagonist will literally start out on his/her own and have to seek people out.

.....and no shirt

altho, truthfully, if was in dungeon for awhile, I imagine he'd be pretty emaciated by the time we saw him. Unable to tolerate light well. Unaccustomed to human touch. If he's been in sum kinda solitary. Jumps everytime you touch him.

It would be kinda sad.

[SamaraDraven]

Sorry for being late to the Shallow Post party. I usually prefer my guys dark haired but Kaidan's face has something about it that creeps me out. *hides*

Alistair has a face that goes too much into little boy territory at times for me, so I guess Cullen is my pick - based on looks alone. Even though he's not my usual type. There really aren't a lot of good looking male brunettes in DA are there? =/ I'd suggest Loghain but he has that awful pasty skin and dark circles around his eyes. Otherwise, he'd be hot. To me anyway... And I still swoon over Duncan. =D

But then we won't be able to romance Cassandra!

This is interesting! For some reason I had always just assumed that there would be tons of Inquisitors, but what if you were literally the only one? Or the head one...? *brain hurts*

That would take a lot more explaining!

No big loss for me! 

*hides in case Danny is around*

[rapscallioness]

Maybe Pentaghast is a background we could choose? If we don't...things might be more difficult? As far persuading other ppl, etc?

Maybe we'll be assigned to it and tasked to recruit people into the cause (like Shepard did in Mass Effect). We'll probably be given two temp "red shirts" who will die once we've recruited the first two permanent companions.

[LolaLei]

Then again, there could be loads of Inquisitors to start with all sent off to recruit and do different things, the bulk of them die and we end up as the only unit still alive and kicking?

I think this is why the usual funeral right in Andrastian religion is the pyre. Not only do they get sent off in the same manner their most loved figure was but it also makes possession impossible. Kind of like in Supernatural; demons can take corpses for hosts and keep a fatally wound person walking and talking. Usually, burning the body, frees the ghosts and keeps demons from using it. So it's an understandable notion. :happy:

Actually, the World of Thedas talks about a lot of different important families in Thedas by name. Could be we'll be playing as a member of one of those. My guess is we'll definitely meet at least some, as quest-givers at least.

If we're called by our last names like we were in DAII, we probably won't have different families as backgrounds. But there are still plenty of reasons that you could be a Pentaghast (just as an example) and one would be a Circle mage, one would be a street urchin rogue that was separated from their family as a child, one would be a skilled warrior who had the best training their family upbringing had to offer, etc.
