I don't ask about the choices in game I ask of the choice of NOT being named inquisitor of not being part of the Inquisition order/group/zealot bunch.. whatever.

Thats what I want, to play as a normal PC who side with who ever s/he wants, not to be forced to be part of it, if you start as a inquisitor then you are bound or were bound by The Nevarran Accord agreement signed in 1:20 Divine.
That mean Any mage in that order is not only happy to serve the chantry but is willing to die defending their views and laws, sorry I can't do that, not when in DA2 I had the choice to go agaisnt them or In DAO asked for mages freedom from the Chantry.

We didn't get the choice to NOT be a Warden or a Champion either. Didn't get the choice NOT to be tainted be darkspawn blood or force to pick between mages and templars.

We all have to start somewhere, in this case, most likely start as an agent of the Chantry/Seekers, an inquisitor. Where you go from that is up to you, if you want to side with the mages and bring about changes in the Chantry to accept them and grant them freedom, you may well be able to to.

Hell maybe you'll kill the Divine and take her place, then you'll definatly be in a role to bring changes for mages.

I see but then being a Circle mage warden was a way to make the Chantry wrong of how people will view mages, and being an apostate mage and becoming champion of a city full of terrors and templars was another sword to the chantry's tummy showing that mages aren't all evil and some will save a city even if is full of templars but again all that still different to begin as an inquisitor someone who worked*  for the chantry..

The only thing you can come out of the choice to help mage is becoming a traitor.. err i don't like that.. I don't want to start as  a traitor even if is betraying the chantry.

Are you sure is  Inquisitor the only choice?

What you got to remember is most mages, human anyway. Follow the teachings of the Chantry. They just have different views on some aspects, like modern religous factions read into the beliefs in different ways.

To become a traitor would mean that the Seekers/Divine and Inquisitor is allied to a faction. It is not. Both the Circle and the Templars are no longer part of it. So should you pick one faction, you wouldn't be a traitor.

Am I sure? Ofcourse not :) everything here is still speculation, It's just alot of what we know fits in with past events and rumors of DA3 if this is the case.

I can swear with a 99.9% certainty that we won't be chasing mages, we'll simply be trying to seek to end the conflict by any means neccecary, making allies all over the place (Remember this video: 
)

You are a servant of the Chantry, The Inquisitor, a title that hasn't been used since the first blight. As said above, you won't chase mages. You will be trying to end the war. Somehow.

So if you hate the Chantry, it's either time to stop projecting your personal feelings onto a video game protagonist who had a completely different upbringing... or skip the game.

I'm 100% sure we won't be forced to chase mages. We may choose to, may choose to try keep the Chantry hows its been for the last 900 years and try reform the circle. Just like we may choose to give them freedom, should we have the power to do so.

The Divine and Chantry want peace, chasing mages won't achieve that.

Those that do hate the Chantry, may find they can do something to take it down from the inside or bring about changes that they would be happy with.

I doubt people will be forced to serve the Chantry for the entire game as the Chantry stands, leave it, change it, re-purpose it, etc. Plenty of options that could be given to us that may change the chantry forever.

Just because you are part of the 'inquisition' does not meant that you are forced to side with the Templars or mages. Although not explicitly stated in DA2, the Nevarran Accord was broken by the former lord of the Seekers and the Templars.
Anyway, I want to play like a rogue 40k inquisitor- the means to bring peace is to fight chaos with chaosPosted Image

Yes it appears there is 2 groups of Seekers, those that broke of in Asunder, and those that follow Cass and the Divine. Those that broke of in Asunder did so shortly after DA2, while Cass's group are still loyal to the Chantry and Divine some time after DA2.

Will our PC for DA3 be referred to as the Inquisitor? A servant to the Chantry and subordinate to an agent of the seekers such as Cassandra?



Attention:

The Inquisition works WITH the chantry (they have a treaty to work together as far as I know) but they are not really BELONGING TO THE CHANTRY!

=> so they are not subordinates, also the chantry might give them orders (they do not have to obey like the templars and seekers, they are in a way like SPECTRES from MassEffect, but without having to follow orders given by any non Inquisition-Member (they certainly have a rank structure of some kind, but are independent contractors that work for other people (maybe they joined up with the chantry to keep their independence - meaning: we help you, but otherwise you leave us alone and you help us if we need it))

greetings LAX

I really don't mind playing the part of the Inquisitor / leader of the Inquisition (we don't even know what this implies yet): I'm sure that Bioware will give enough room to create our own characters.
After all, it's entirely possible that all the Chantry is looking for are answers and the best way to find truth (in my opinion of course) is asking a neutral party to look for it.

However, I hope that we won't be called Inquisitor, at least not by our companions... it sounds so... pompous.

I doubt our companions would refer to the PC as the Inquisitor unless talking to a 3rd party. But to the Inquisitor, who knows, pet names are common as other titles (like lord and my lady) .

Will be interesting to work for the husk of the Chantry, all its allies and followers have abandoned it to wage war, even most Seekers have, although it "seems" Cass's group is still loyal. A desperate Chantry will recruit agents from all and any backgrounds to try strengthen itself and save it.
