We need a tower filled with messenger birds so that the Inquisitor can send out orders to subordinates in the new Inquisition.

Yup, really hoping for a letter system.

A torture chamber so I can throw Anders(Justice) in there since I'm sure he'll be back.

He won't necessarily. Gaider stated that a dead Anders in DA2 is a dead Anders, and that whether or not you believe that freed Justice, he won't be back if he was killed.

Edit: Good to know torture chambers are still popular on this thread.

If I was going to have a torture chamber, there would have to be some soft cushions and a comfy chair, at the very least.

Joking aside, I'd enjoy being able to customize how the castle looks. Having NPCs visit would be nice too, so long as they aren't only coming to give you a quest or visit your dog.

[Auintus]

I will paint the walls with the blood of my enemies. Muwahahahahahahahaha.
Also, Aquamarine 64. Let me see it before you try it out. Sometimes they make it too green. It needs to have a good blue/green balance or else it just ruins the atmosphere. Do you have any idea how difficult it is to entertain guests in an Aquamarine 63 room? It's horrible, absolutely horrible.

[gosimmons]

Well, I probably would have been better off not knowing some of this fandom's power fantasies.

[Wolfspawn]

I want a poster on the wall of a kitten in a tree, saying "Hang in there..."

Of course, the kitten would be hanging on a noose in this tree. I would have it no other way.

[garrusfan1]

Eh either make it have blood on the castle walls and have gory stuff everywhere like having the heads of criminals on the wall. Or just a cool looking regular castle

[garrusfan1]

That and have room for me and my LI

[ElvaliaRavenHart]

Companions sharing castle space, and near the armor room or storage room so it will be easy for me to swap their armor. This has been a pain in the arse with each game so far. Be able to have a drinking game and dinner with my companions. I'd like to actually be able to sit on my bloody throne please. Sort of missed this in DA:A. Be able to lie down in my bed or whatever might happen there. Be kinda cool to just lie down on it. If I have to entertain guest for dinner, dressy clothes, like Hawke had. I'd also like it if I can wear a gown if playing as a woman, not just pants. Crafting room please. Hmmm, red room of pain! Hmmm, Fifty Shades of Dragon Age with the dungeon!? Capturing the castle would be cool as a quest, maybe class specific. Make it a worthy battle if we have to conquer our own castle. I want an epic battle for it. Servrants would be cool too. Be nice to see elves and service dwarfs here too.

Torture chamber, dungeons, complete customization (architecture, colors, flags, furniture, exc. exc.), Choice of garrison commanders (A dutiful soldier, A brave local, A snarky elf that sort of thing), possibly soldiers from whatever faction we may be able to join, frequent (optional) court rulings and plenty of opportunities to dispense High Justice, recruitment opportunites out in the world. Some of these things are probably not likly but meh, maybe some of them will get implemented.

edit. Almost forgot, would love to be able to capture some kind of monster to keep in the dungeon and actualy use throughout the game (like a Wyvern or something).

If there is a choice of garrison commanders, there ought to be one whose motto is "D'you want it done clean, or do you want it done right?"

why is it that everyone wants to make the beloved castle into nothing but a den of sex and violence? castle is multidimensional and complex and deserves more respect than that!

<----totally going to be better to castle than most of you.

[Riverdaleswhiteflash]

It depends on what sort of character we're roleplaying. Some of my DA:O characters would have made it just a den of sex and violence, some of my characters would have made it a beacon of light in the crappy world that is Thedas. And the way I was playing my Amell, she would have made it a den of sex, hold the violence thank you very much.

But that just ties into a post I made before this thread died and came back; If I'm going to have a castle, I want a castle that I can customize depending on what I'm trying to do with my character. Sometimes, a den of sex and violence is exactly what's called for in that regard.

I just want an attendant, that can play the vielle.

[Kileyan]

I'd be happy if I can add on a griffon stable, I don't want much.

Seriously I am fine with how NWN2 did it, and to some extent the Awakening expansion. Hold court, solve some troubles with the locals, upgrade my keep, set patrols and merchant stuff. Make a bit of the keep stuff integral to the crafting system. Attract, rescue or find some awesome armorers and weaponsmiths, blah blah.

I have no specifics, but this isn't new territory for Bioware, hopefully they will add in some new things they haven't done before, to spice things up.

[Nefla]

Same thing I did in my mansion in DA2, store my extra crap in it.

[Josielyn]

I want a trophy wall to display the beasts I've killed, and a big dining room table to invite all of my companions to dine with me. And a giant bathtub, big enough for 2.

[XCelfa]

^ I see what you did there.

personally I'd like to put a giant metal chicken named Beyonce in the courtyard.

I love the Castle. I loved the one in NWN2, I loved the one in the DAO Expansion, I love all the cool things you can do with them. I like the idea of being able to use my Castle as a shield for my allies, giving them shelter from their enemies, and I like the idea of being able to develop superior weapons, and upgrading it so that anyone who would dare attack my team would feel the wrath of my upgraded castle, we would wipe them out decisively, showing them the true power of my awesome Castle! I'd also like to be able to use my castle as a location to hold Peace negotiations, between reasonable leaders on both sides. I'd like to be able to toss my enemies into the dungeons, and if we could dig underneath the Castle and find some really cool ruins, maybe even some tunnels and such, kind've like in the DAO Expansion, that'd be swell too. I really love everything about my Castle, and I don't even know anything about it yet . Other than, of course, it sure looks nice from the outside! Maybe we could customize that too, I might like to give it a nice fresh coat of paint, customize the color of it to suit my style. That'd be neato.

Yet another interesting idea is the ability to train your army there, gather folks from your journeys, send them to the castle, and let them get trained so that they can help defend the Castle. Perhaps even use the Castle as a new seat of Power, perhaps use it to become the new Empress of Orlais, or marry the Empress and have her move into the Castle with me and rule together. So many awesome possibilities, this is going to be the best game ever!

This and a dragon nest will make me fell in love with this game.

 What I want in my ideal castle (the full laundry list- not a realistic set of demands by any stretch. XD):

Ability to display cool armor/weapons in racks a la Skyrim.

Kitchen where I can craft food.

Bathing and toilet facilities- not necessarily to use, but I want to know if Thedas uses garderobes that open onto a moat, or whether they have outdoor privies, or dwarven plumbing.  Hawke's room had a giant chamberpot, and the Circle tower mages had buckets (seriously???  In a tall tower overlooking a lake that you pour magical potion remnants into, you don't have garderobes???) but in reality many chamberpots were small, handheld, and stored under the bed for night use only.  During the day you used the privy.  In any case I want the rooms for verisimillitude.

Library where I can store book collections/codex entries and see how many I have left to find for the achievement that will no doubt be paired with it.

Alchemy room/stillroom for potions and/or poisons.

Rush mats on the floors.

Grand hall where I can receive petitioners and choose to help them (or not.)

Training yard where I can play a sparring minigame with my guards to improve their martial skills.

Small, cozy common room where I can play a Wicked Grace or Diamondback minigame with my companions.

Smithy and living quarters for Wade and Herren.

Living quarters for ALL of my companions, servants' quarters for servants (maybe I have a spy or a thief in my servant population, and I have to go rifle through their belongings to find the culprit!)  I also want my companion's rooms to reflect the gifts I give them and the choices I make regarding their story- if I give them a necklace or a mirror or a key or ???  I want to see it on their dresser.

My own bedroom with a bed my character can actually sleep in, with a save utility built in.  Also I want my LI to move into my room with me when we hook up, bringing their belongings with them.    And I want the ability to bed them as many times as I want, unless story requires that it not be possible (i.e. Zevran's refusal.)  If my LI dies I want to sob over their possessions.

Graveyard- if my family or companions (or my companions' families) die, I want to visit their graves.  And I want to be able to put flowers on their graves, too.

Weather!  Snow on the ramparts!

Bandit incursions, hire-able guards that can die (permanently) if not trained, a siege where people starve if I haven't stockpiled enough in the way of provisions.

I want to be able to buy decorations as a gold sink and be able to rearrange some furniture into slots intended for a variety of furnishings.

Servants hanging laundry and beating the dust out of rugs outside on nice days.

Either a 24 hour clock or changes between night and day a la DA2.  Candlelight at night, sun streaming through the windows during the day.

Curtains (or no curtains. XD)

A chapel where my devout party members/guards can hang out and where I can trigger discussions about religion.

An infirmary where my Healer hangs out, actually healing people.  Maybe even delivering babies, if such a thing actually exists in Thedas.  I have yet to see any, but have hope.

For my party members that live in my castle to move around, maybe even have a schedule (as in Skyrim) where they sleep, eat, occupy the privy (no matter how much I bang on the door and demand that they get out!), practice their skills, relax, hang out with each other, etc.

Snowball fights and forts minigames in winter- a river or lake where my companions and I can sun themselves and swim in summer.  Flowers in spring and leaves falling in autumn.

Random disastrous events- giant rats in the pantry, a mudslide due to heavy rains, scaffolding collapsing during upgrades.

Dogs and cats roaming around- dog kennels where I can train my hounds for war, or take them with me hunting.

HOLIDAYS with appropriate swag and decorations.

A sexy steward like Seneschal Varel.

Treasure room where I can store my gold- the more I put in, the more visually full the room appears- chests overflowing with coin, gem-encrusted goblets and plates, super-fancy dress armor.

A sock blind.

A warded room for my mages to practice without blowing up the place.  Magical accidents result in a random event of demons coming from the Fade, and which requires my attention.  Maybe Sandal hangs out here, too, making shinies.

Unearth a tunnel with access to the Deep Roads.

Stables, with haystacks where I can invite my LI for a fade-to-black moment.

I want to be able to buy clothes, set outfits, and store them in dressers or wardrobes.  Then I can pull out my fancy dress for the masked ball I'm holding in the ballroom!

Ballroom for parties.  Also a moment of dancing with my LI, instructing them if they're clumsy, or having them instruct me if my PC is clumsy.

I want to be able to interact with stuff.  I want to be able to go into every room, even if I can't do anything.  I want the layout to be practical and to reflect actual, livable design so that I can more fully immerse myself in the game.  I want minigames, events, customization and personalization for both myself and my companions.

This!!! A thousand times this!!!
