I prefer my unicorn idea tbh...

[The Qun & the Damned]

Abominations running about, demons spilling into the real world, dragons clouding the sky like plastic bags in a twister, ain't nobody got time for that twilight soundin' stuff

[esper]

Reaver,/Assassin/Blood mage pretty much cover the vampire aspect for me.

New strategy for Bioware: Insert vampires, make pale sickly emo one romancable and fan girls will buy the game in droves lol.

We already have vampires, they don't drink blood but they do scary things with it: Blood mages.

Now seriously: I would like that they didn't use vampires/werewolves/same cliche monsters. And before someone rages me (as it is custom in this forums), I just think those monsters are already overused in all media and that Dragon Age team should try to come up with other ideas for monsters.

I don't see how blood mages are at all similar to vampires. "Taking people's blood" is a pretty common activity for various creatures of folklore.

As are orcs (or variations thereof), or demons that possess people (magic users in particular).

The darkspawn certainly had an orchish vibe. The Battle of Ostagar looked like a battle from Lord of the Rings.

Hence why I doubt Darkspawn will be a major villain again, save perhaps for Corypheus

The problem is that in Dragon Age, there really is no such thing as Undead. We have the fade with its spirits and demons. They can cross over and possess a dead corpse, but its not 'undead' in the more traditional sense. Its just a spirit inhabiting a meat machine. Spirits can inhabit trees and such as well.

Vampires as they are traditionally depicted are dead things with their own consciousness. That doesn't happen in Dragon Age. Its just a spirit of hunger inhabiting a dead body. You won't see a beautiful sparkly vampire in DA, and that's a good thing.

[Archaven]

Vampires would be great. I still remember the hard rock-scissor-paper vampire of Baldur's Gate 2. It's really awesome till you figure out how to counter them. It's really awesome battle. I want such battle in DAI.

Most undead in fiction are a variation on that same theme.

Yup, but I was more thinking on the taking people's blood to gain enegery (and reavers use out right cannibalism).
As for the other monsterous/demon-like aspect of the vampire, demons cover that.

Well, I guess we are still missing a craturet that doesn't like sunlight, but really I don't feel the need for that.

Aren't most undead reanimated corpses in the majority of fictions? And not possessed as it is in dragon age.

The difference being that its usually a necromancer infusing an artificial life into a dead body.   A spirit from the fade is already a quasi-sentient being usually with a somewhat focused goal depending on the type of spirit doing the possession.

[Lluthren]

They have werewolves, oxmen and flying lizards, why not add vampires. I don't think they'd be very out of place. They'll just need something to stand out from vampires in other stories.

[Little Princess Peach]

Maybe a dlc that adds an element of vampire curse on the pc, like in skyrim the pc can turn into a vampire or werewolf

[PinkDiamondstl]

No ! And stop trying to turn Dragon age into bloody Skyrim . Freaking hate that game..

[Cantina]

Ugh, no.

Adding Vampires into Dragon Age, just would not make sense.

IF they do add vampires in the realm, I hope they make vampires sparkle.

[LOLandStuff]

Have posh people suffer of clinical vampirism because it's the latest trend in Orlais.

[zMataxa]

They'd have to do something VERY SPECIAL to make Vampires fit with DA.

+1 million to>>>>> "And stop trying to turn Dragon age into bloody Skyrim "

[Mykel54]

They will eventually, and also unicorns and whatever else gets more people to buy the game. You wish there was a way to know when you are in the "good old days"? Well you are now, these are the golden days of the DA setting.

From here now, as writers are replaced (Brent Knowles was the first) the setting will change until it becomes something unrecognizable. So enjoy it while it lasts.

LMAO! Unicorns!


I had this thought that David Gaider would keep griffins extinct, but instead will have the Grey Wardens riding Unicorns.
