Since I can't get TIM to come along or probabaly Sebby back ... *sigh*
Cullen would be nice but more than likely not going to happen.
I get kinda tired of the typical hard arsed/bad boy or naieve/shy guy things with Carth Onasi-style backgrounds.
Give me a man who is a warrior or a templar. Someone with a tough exterior but cracks just a little when in private company. Make it someone whom I have to work at to chisel through that exterior as it will make it all the sweeter when he relents, saying he does have feeling for my male character.
But make it believeable. Heck, no offense, but maybe get an actual gay man on the team to write it. (I am not one myself, but I really felt the ME2 ones were poorly .. forced and fake)
I also do miss the Pool of Radiance thing back int he day, when the one who loved my main character went beserk when my character died. Need to add that too.

Someone like this: http://en.wikipedia....i/Jack_Harkness
Ah from Torchwood? Nice .. I'd go for him indeed!
Hell I'd even go for the Doctor .. hm ... 6th or 8th form. Or .. any of them. Nerdy and absentminded ... getting their attention would be worth it.

I actually really like that disgraced Dwarf idea. I'd like him to be a snarky "jerk with a heart of gold" rogue who, maybe, was kicked out of his house for being such a scoundrel? Has kleptomania, which would be brought up for funny party banter, and would end up stealing a gift just for a romanced PC.

A warrior type. Short hair. Human.
Also this. He'd need to have facial hair, too. No pretty boys, elves, or anything stereotypical. I'd just like a grizzled man who can fall in love with the male PC.
Hm ... someone to steal me presents? Sounds intriguing. And yes, no sterotypes ... see my previous post!

From a superficial standpoint I just hope one of the DA3 m/m romance options has short hair, I know it's a fantasy world but I am not a fan of ponytails or long wavy Aragorn hair. It's the main reason why I never liked Zevran or Anders but looooved Kaidan Alenko. In fact they should just put him in DA3 as a mage, I don't even care how ridiculous that would be lol.
Gagh now I can't stop thinking of Fabio for some reason ...

Yeah, I'd like that too. But there will be no royal wedding then, unfortunately.Battlebloodmage wrote...
I kinda want someone who is a royalty to be romanceable by M/M. Both Alistair and Sebastian are royalty, but both of them are straight. I don't know if being royalty is a requirement for being straight. It would add a bit of diversity to the romance option. Maybe the bastard son of Maric and the elf commander.

I personally don't care much for royal wedding. It would be nice if we can have a gay royal wedding, but we don't know if wedding is allowed for Thedas; however, I'm not gonna open that can of worms again. It would also be nice that he would choose you over his own country. Something that is the opposite of Alistair. Maybe he would rather be with you rather than becoming king or duke or viscount or whatever.franciscoamell wrote...

I don't think it was ever said that s/s couples can't get married in thdas so maybe there is hope.

Wasn't there a king who was having a homosexual relationship with his cousin in one of the lore of DA?Battlebloodmage wrote...

Royal couples are expected to produce a blood heir. Can't do that with two guys/gals. It's why Alistair needs to be hardened in order for him to continue his relationship with non-Nobles.Quicksilver26 wrote...

Aristocrats in Orlais are notorious for their hedonism and extravagance, and sexual relations with multiple partners of either sex are not uncommon. The peasantry is much less tolerant of such behavior, at least in public. According to The Stolen Throne, the Emperor Florian reputedly had an affair with his cousin Meghren, which resulted in Meghren being banished from Orlais to Ferelden. The scandal surrounding their relationship was likely due to their being related, however, not to the fact that they were both men.

I'm not sure about the regular folk but for Royalty it's a definite no since they cannot produce an heir to the throne.

If you don't mind a little modding action in your DA:O game by all means give the "Equal Love" mod a try. Aside from maybe 3 or 4 female-centric references in the entire game (that really didn't take away that much from the game's immersion), I had my male noble Cousland rogue (the dark-haired, porn-stached dude in my avatar, actually) flirt, bed, marry and rule with Alistair. Mind you, some of the dialogue choices took on a whole new demented dimension. My favorite is still the "There are worse things I can think of than being a queen" option shortly after the Landsmeet when you announce that Alistair will be king and you'll rule beside him.

Since the idea hasn't been implemented in the game, maybe it could be changed. At least, I hope so. It would kind of depressing if my Hawke and Anders can't get married, even if they are fugitive.franciscoamell wrote...
Some of the content in the page that Quicksilver posted was based of an interview with one of the writers (maybe David), and in that interview the writer said there is no gay marriage in Thedas.

BTW if you're on the xbox, all you have to do is change your Warden's gender until you trigger Alistair's romance and voila, you got yourself a royal boyfriend xD

Why would it be a bad ending if you don't mind me asking? I personally prefer for me and Alistair to be warden and stay together since I feel like being king would take away too much of his time to devote toward being with the warden; however, Alistair being king is not that bad, especially if you harden him. He study hard to be a good king. I personally think Anora is the best ruler for Ferelden though but still.Dhiro wrote...
Maybe it's just because I don't see marriage as the ultimate proof of love and happiness, but I don't really mind not being able to marry my same sex LI. It's not like any romance aside from Sebastian and Alistair can, anyway (and, in Alistair's case, not only you need to be human but I also consider the royal marriage one of the bad endings).

IIRC, these were Origins-era descriptions of the world, and if I recall correctly, they were mainly referring to the Chantry. I didn't pay too close attention at the time, but I believe he primarily spoke about property and lineage as really being the factors in marriage (not just two people in love, at least when it comes to the nobility—who really are the intended beneficiaries of the institution of marriage in Thedas).Battlebloodmage wrote...

There's no telling what other customs in other regions (or with the other races) may be like, and whatever other nuances weren't involved in the discussion (or indeed hadn't even been created yet).
It's entirely possible that Hawke and Fenris wouldn't even think or care to be married, in any event. And I'd like to see somebody try to deprive them of any of the privileges of marriage there are in Kirkwall (or wherever it is David spirited them off to), even if there was no ceremony. ;-)

I sent you my opinion through a personal message, since I don't want to derail the thread!

I don't know what the marital status in Thedas is. I really hope David Gaider may clarify more on this. I guess I would be really disappointed if there are no gay nobles. At least Cullen isn't a noble. There is some silver lining there.

Oh, there are gay nobles. If they get to say "no" when their parents tell them to have an heir though, it's another matter. I wouldn't be surprised if we have many gay nobles that marry for the children and political benefits, but keep a male lover at arm's reach.

Well, you could do it with the warden by marrying Anora and keeping Zevran on the side. I would have loved that to be canon if I didn't find Zevran to be so annoying.Dhiro wrote...

I do wish that we have at least a gay noble in the next game. It would shake things up a bit from the usual commoner LIs. Maybe he would forfeit his noble status just to be with your PC . That would be so romantic. Since the cast has been decided, I don't think it's gonna happen.
