So taking a step back, in the concept art that was leaked several months ago, we saw the male and female Protagonist, the Warden, Cassandra, Cullen, Sera, Scribe Girl, "Dorian Grey" and... Am I missing someone? Iron Bull's picture wasn't included.

Since then, we've seen a Qunari who I believe to be Iron Bull, both in the trailer and in other pictures, Cassandra and Varric are confimed, Vivienne who wasn't in the leaked survey, Grey Warden, possibly Sera in the gameplay video, and we've seen Cullen and Scribe Girl in the concept art where the Inquisitor stabs the table. We haven't seen Cole or Dorian Grey for sure. And Varric wasn't in the leaked survey.

Just trying to weigh the odds...

Oh! "Quest Updated: Reclamation" At the beginning of level 3. Maybe we are taking back Adamant?

Oh wow, we get straight into the action that early in the game? OoOOooO dramatic. :P


That's at 3:29 in the video, if anyone wants to see it.

Maybe we're reclaiming something from Warden Commander Clavel, and that's why we had to pursue him? Or we needed him or to get something from him in order to reclaim Adamant.

So, Tevinter is filled with medieval Pyramid Head cosplayers?

:huh:


Gladiator types. Think more like this:

Well, you can't deny that both share a love of comically shaped helmets, overly large weapons and a lack of foresight when it comes to chest armour. Actually switch the helmet for horns and their converting to the Qun isn't really all that different.

But in seriousness, I have the sneaking suspicion that these are going to be dreadful to fight, like the Genlock Alphas in Legacy who were immune to pretty much everything a mage could throw at them.

At 1:15 (and a little past that), I see Vivienne, a white-haired (possibly very blonde) elvish-looking archer chick (Sera?) a rogue with two knives, possibly the Inquisitor, or... Cole? And the older Grey Warden fellow. So parties of four again? I assume the rogue guy is the Inquisitor. And everyone is level 3 there.


Yeah, the white/blonde haired chick's hair also turns green in that video LOL!


I noticed that. I saw that she was dropping a bunch of torches on the ground in front of Vivienne, and then she moved out of the light of the torches. My guess on her hair is that it's a shadow change, really bright blonde (or white) in the torchlight, and when she moved away from it, her hair darkened in the shadow. And then it seemed like Vivienne needed the fire assist for her big spell that she does. Maybe that's one more example of what they mean by using the environment around you? You can use torches to your advantage? I'm still trying to see who that girl is.

Wiedz, what makes you think it would be there ? Maybe it's near the abyssal rift? Or Anderfels?

As far as Adamant is concerned, maybe as an Inquisitor with some sort of say in the Mage/Templar war, maybe we're looking for clues about reversing Tranquility for the Mages? Especially if Vivienne is in our party...? Another long shot.

You have awakened the speculation beast.....hurrrrr...Maybe peace talks are called and while we're there the Chantry and or Templars sabotage the discussion. For whatever reason Adamant is chosen as a neutral area where the groups attempted to parlay, but when the coup or ambush occurs it weakens the veil. 

We already know the fortress has a thin veil so it splits maybe because of the Knight-Commander or Warden-Commander does something and the resulting fire storm and influx of demons kills everyone, but your awesomness gets you out of danger.

As for the Inquisition maybe their leader dies and you promote yourself? But that would conflict with the "lead from the start" thing.

I could see "reclaiming" Adamant fortress from evil or something, or cleansing it, and we make it worse and rip the already thin Veil. Honestly... I have a hard time imagining it as a neutral place for peace talks. But I could see an investigation sent there to pick up the pieces from Asunder.

yeah, it is quick to the action. seemingly.

omg. what an emotional roller coaster ride w/the blurry image and all. and i thought i could see knight commander cullen, too. i mean, you know, if i tilted my head a certain...

sometimes i could see it. sometimes. truth. "i see cullen ppl".

sigh, da team, srsly, it's been long enough. it's time to tell us. one way or the other. it's time. no more waiting to just know if cullen is a companion.

i mean, you got miss vivienne slinking around all over the darn screen already...just sayin'

it's time. if you're gonna break my heart just get her done already. don't break it right before the game comes out.

srsly, where's the meat? and just plz don't do me the way they did a straight femshep in me3. don't do me like that.

i'm fretting on all kinds of levels now. i srsly hope my options won't be varric or beardy grey warden....

oh, but wait cullen thread. the image w/us pursuing this warden comm is lvl 2. and the other image w/what appears to be beardy warden is lvl 3? is that what you saw? if so, it may be that we pursue him, and then recruit him...well, the beardy dude anyway.

but if we're recruiting at the adamant, then it would have to be after this magical blast thing. or our companions would all be dead. right?

it seems we may get viv, varric, and cass right away. viv and cass i could see cuz they're in orlais. and all chantry. and varric has been traveling w/cass for a couple years now.

Unless the game takes place in 9:40, then we'll probably see Cass decide to start "traveling" with Varric.

I do wonder if Cullen's status as a companion is simply in flux right now. Maybe he was originally planned as a potential companion (the survey leak, though DG points out that not everyone on that leak was a potential companion). But the extreme Cullen hate erupted on the BSN and elsewhere, and they reconsidered (since they seem quite terrified of angry fans lately, after DA2 and ME3).

But maybe they aren't willing to say "NO" at this point because he's still under consideration.

 Damn, got all excited with the "Pursue Commander-Such-and-Such Clablahblah".
In all seriousness, I remain adamant that we'll get Cullen as a companion. The fan demand for him is *huge*, not to mention his likeness has been seen in not one but two pieces of concept art. He probably won't get announced til around last, though. Gaider would want to watch us sweat and panic and speculate for as long as possible, that troll. :lol:

I don't know why reclaiming the Adamant would be beneficial, surely it'd be Tainted beyond belief and with the Veil so weak, it'd be a demon hotspot? It'd be like arranging a picnic at Ostagar?

Unless their saving it for a big reveal, it'd be nice to know if we get Cullen already.

Why is Vivienne so thin, I wonder? I would still think she's an elf if it hadn't been confirmed that she's human. Well, thin people can save the world, too, I guess xD

Considering the amount of death threats/tantrums/"pre-order cancelled"s they've had to put up with in the past, I wouldn't blame them for being scared of angry fans... I'd be bloody scared too! But they have said that the companions are all chosen and locked-in, so if Cullen's with them, he's staying, for better or worse.

After looking at the image of the elf girl more, and more at the concept art, I'm going to say that's Sera. She's got her own party portrait, along with Vivienne and the Warden guy.

rapscallioness, I think you may be right that we did pursue Warden Commander Clavel and that's who beardy Warden guy is. It makes sense. He looks old enough and experienced enough to be a Warden Commander. I might throw that out there on the Game Informer thread and see if any Devs bite. Edit: I put it in the Mysterious Warden Commander thread instead.

Maybe. But this is a soldier from Tevinter. Mike has shown a map with Solas - http://www.dragon-ag...t_by_Ilidan.jpg

Anderfels is located in the North, and Bioware will be focused on South in Dragon Age: Inquisition. So there will not be Anderfels.

They're Venatori soldiers, an enemy faction in the game. The Dev (Josh Stiksma)  says that at 2:00 in the video. Is there any mention of Venatori in WoT or anywhere else?

Where did these images come from? That is the exact same armor that the Venatori are wearing in the game. So maybe the Venatori are from Tevinter, and they are gathering slaves from where you happen to be?
