From the leaks a while back it looks like the PC will be a member of this Inquisition but, what is this Inquisition? In my mind as an Inquisitor you are tasked with defending Thedas and the Chantry from various threats. These many threats inculde the Qunari, Darkspawn, Blood Mages, Demons, and Heretics. Since there are so many different threats the Inquisiton should be split into three branches that deal with related threats. These threats can be categorized as from without, from within, and from beyond.

The Threats Without.
Threats from without refers to threats that come from outside Thedas like Darkspawn and the Qunari and their Qun. This branch could be called The Order Alien.

The Threats Within
Threats from within refers to Heretics and those who wish to overthrow the Chantry. This branch could be called The Order Heretic

The Threats From Beyond
Threats from beyond refers to Blood Mages and Demons. This branch could be called The Order Demonic

As an Inquisitor you should be both feared and respected for dealing with these various threats and therefore wield tremendous power and Influence. When you speak Kings and Grand Clerics listen. This power is fully utilized when an Inquisitor orders Exterminatus. Exterminatus, similar to The Right of Annulment, is used on population centers where the place and people have become completly corrupted. This corruption can be from Darkspawn corruption, the taint of Blood Magic, or even the Veil being sundered allowing demons to posses the living. Exterminatus is only used in the most extreme situations where there is no other option but the complete destruction of a population center and its people.

So what do you think of my concept for the Inquisition? Do you like it, hate it, or does it remind you of something?

Someone spilled some Warhammer into my Dragon Age!

Not that there is anything wrong with that... if, in some insane twisting of intellectual properties, this game became about the Imperium's struggle against the Alien, the Mutant and the Heretic - I would be the first to say: "No, seriously - the game was always about this. It's perfect."

The Maker is The God-Emperor of Mankind! Praise the Maker!

And the old gods were his sons that betrayed him and fell to darkspawn taint.

What if people want to see the Chantry change?

[Fast Jimmy]

What if people want to not be a part of the Chantry in the least?

I'm hoping that the Inquisitors aren't a direct Chantry relation... although I strongly suspect that to be the case.

I'd love to see some save-game info collected from DA2 to see how many people sided with the Templars vs. the Mages. If the forums are an indicator, I'd say Mages are a much higher amount, but the forums can be very misleading.

Even if it is as you say, I highly doubt they won't give us the chance to break away from the Chantry at some point. An entire game where you do only what the divine (or whomever else is leading this thing) tells you would be quite boring. I do hope BioWare understands this

I do hope the OP is wrong. I don't think I'd want to play that game!

I like the concept, except the whole exterminatus thingy.

Best would be if there would be an option to ruin the chantry from within, 2. let things flow, 3. uphold the chantry's laws.

Three possible endings. The most important basis of the choice of these endings is chosen, let's say mid-game.

The whole concept is a parody of Warhammer 40,000's Inquisition but I do like your idea about the three options and therefore three endings. Bioware could have that choice decide what ending you recieve and have your other choices affect the important variables in the ending. It would be difficult to do but would be extremely satisfying to the player.

Neither do I. next1

I've played that game... as the Tau.

For the greater good!

I hope the inquisition is like this (no Monty Python here, I swear!)

Die Xenos scum:devil:

I'll admit, the thought of the Deathwatch marching against... well, all over Par Vollen is rather delightful.

As much as I love dead Xenos I think you mean Thedas

[Lithuasil]

I meant Par Vollen actually, got things mixed in the head. (Though to be fair, the deathwatch would have also solved ME3's plot a lot faster with a lot less nonsense) <.<

Indeed the smallest warships the Imperium has measure at least 1km long and they're often equipped with lance batteries which would make quick work of the Reapers. Not only that, but imagine exterminatus being used on Palaven and Thessia. The Reaper War would be a minor inconvence for the Imperium.

Interesting, but darkspawn should be played down to a minimum. Since the blight is long over.

So it would be like this?

The Threats Without.
Protect the lands from Qunari invasion or spread the Qun.

The Threats Within
Restore the chantry or dismantle it.

The Threats From Beyond
Save the lands from demonic rule or serve them

Regarding the Darkspawn I can think of a lot of reasons they might be a threat or be included some how.
The new intelligent ones being a problem
The thing the Gray Wardens were investigating in DA2 that we never got learn about
Plus there's the Primeval thaig that could expanded upon(on?).
Then there's that supposed foreshadowing about something under Orlais
And of course Corypheus who may still be alive.

I think thats a lot of ways the Darkspawn could be involved in DA3.
