LOL, that would be awesome! Actually, the
red Templars remind me of the indoctrinated Cerberus soldiers from ME3.
They were in full armour with helmets on so they seemed normal, and
were coherent, but then Shepard pulled off one of their helmets and they
were half husked up with glowing blue eyes and
blackish/blueish/purplish mottled skin. Creepy!
I could imagine
maybe getting a good look at a red Templar who's been huffing red lyrium
and seeing how their skin is starting to go all weird, like Corypheus. I
mean, extreme lyrium usage mutates the user, like those Tervinter
magisters, so I bet red lyrium would speed up the process!
This was my exact thought when I first learned of the red Templars. And if, say, the tevinter magisters are behind the chaos, they could be secretly supplying or pushing the red lyrium to templars whose morals are shaky to begin with.
As for the creepy factor- DA has definitely given me a few "well, better turn on some lights now!" moments. The first for me was in Orzommar when we hear Hespith:
First day they come, and catch everyone.
Second day they beat us, and eat some for meat.
Third day, the men are gnawed on again.
Fourth day we wait, and fear for our fate.
Fifth day they return, and it's another girl's turn.
Sixth day, her screams we hear in our dreams.
Seventh day, she grew as in her mouth they spew.
Eighth day we hated, as she's violated.
Ninth day she does feast as she's become the beast.
That was... ugggh.... so creepy. As was the first time I played DA2 when we see (SPOILER!) Hawke's zombie mom. I was so, so sad, but soooo creeped out at the same time. >.<
Also, thank you very, very much for digging for those pics! I'm even more excited about our forts than I already was.

underscore DG's love for writing characters you feel strongly about,
requoting something he said here in our thread about 10 months ago...

Aaaaaaaand que all the Cullen hate on the confessions Tumblr LOL.
Look at it this way: I'd rather use a character that was both hated and loved than one which nobody cared about either way. [smilie]http://social.bioware.com/images/forum/emoticons/wink.png[/smilie]
And this is something that gives me hope to have him in game!
Oh,
they'll definitely have him in game. They, at the very least, are
supposedly going to give him closure. And while when I first read the
quote my hopes increased, DG most likely only meant that Cullen was in
the game, period... not necessarily as a companion. It would be great
to have him as a companion- he certainly deserves it.
