I loved Charade and was kind of disappointed when her story never went past just meeting up with Gamlen. I think including her would be a good way to reference what happened in Kirkwall and the story of her escape from the city would certainly be interesting.

She was a welcome breath of fresh air among the crackpots you meet in act 3 but I could take or leave her reappearing, especially since we won't be playing Hawke again; without the family connection she's just some nice person. The time to expand on her story I think was really during DA2. It's a shame she didn't get more time on-screen, if DA2 was meant to be a more personal story then finding a lost family member seems like a good thing to build on in between all the family deaths, but oh well...

She definitely needs to be redesigned

Exactly! You'd think having a new family member who pops up after you've lost all the other one's would earn you at least one other conversation.

I was thinking about this the other day. I'm convinced that she'll make some sort of appearance based on her choice of weapon. I know it sounds profound, but really, which random NPC that fights along your side carries a bow? Call me crazy, but that is just my way of thinking.

I'm done talking. All I was saying is that some characters are more level headed and reasonable than others, and this is my basis for normality in the contenxct of DA2, and I thought of Charade to be level headed.

If you really care this much to be arguing semantics instewad of giving your actual opinion, maybe you should start a thread debating what people mean by normal instead.

Now either contribute to the discussion of Charade as a viable companion, or please leave the thread.

Cheers

It's hard to argue semantics when you keep changing the definition almost every post. If you can't even present a consistent and defensible definition of "normal", how can you expect anyone to take you seriously?

Part of the fun of fantasy is fantasy. Larger-than-life personas and interesting extremes. I've got plenty of normality in real life, I don't need it in my games.

My god, you're right!

All realism and normality in games is unnecessary!! Quite frankly it detracts from the experience!

Why bother having a boring tinkerer who is searching for parts for his next invention when you could have a:

Female sterile kossith Tal-vashoth mage with a father who attempted to resurrect an archdemon before having sex with a dwarf and producing the first dwarf mage who then chases the kossith in her dreams to make her see the error of the ways and to go back to her bar and serve tea to the empress of orlais who has just been kidnapped by RAVENS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Realism sucks!

Who even wants stupuid things like gravity, or loyalty or anything when you can have totally bonkers things that one could never experience in real life!

Bioware, please remove all laws of physics from the dragon age games.

seconded! no gravity ftw!

 I'd be okay with it. I enjoyed my brief encounter with her, though she'd need a little more depth to be a squadmate.

[AppealToReason]

I brought this up a while ago as a way to somehow have Hawke as part of the story without actually having him in the story,

Unless he's sarcastic Hawke and you spy on him during a dueling competition and his helmet ends up getting battered and stuck to his face and then you say hello and and he's all "derp isn't this cray!"

Am i the only one in here thinking about all the jiggles in DOA now?

[zeMadMonkey]

I can see her being an archer companion. Possibly a romance but based on what i saw from her I wouldn't unless she shows a lot of character development and there is more to her than meets the eye (like Leliana and Isabela who were my canon LI).

A companion quest would be interesting as it could involve Hawke and you get answers as to why they disappeared. Other than that I don't see her having a personal story other than family but we hardly know anything about her so she could suprise me.

Her returning as a companion is a hit or miss for me. They could pull her off really well or it could be wasted. It does seem like she is meant for something bigger than her role in DA2 though as her short cameo hinted something further along the lines and a future appearance seems likely. As a companion she has potential but I see her as being a quest giver or a contact you find in order to find Hawke. thats all I can see her doing really but I am open to an appearance for her

[NoForgiveness]

what if she was looking for hawke too? thatd be a good reason to join up with the pc. assuming the pc cares about the "disappearances"

Could someone please post a picture of this person? I still am completely clueless who this person is and I beat the game like 3 times, so I feel pretty dumb right now haha.

It's okay.



She was in a side quest for Gamlen's letter in Act III of Dragon Age II. 

Personally, I'd like it if she at least had an appearance in Dragon Age: Inquisition.

In the hand full of side quest characters to pick from I would have to say Charade, Lia (the elf girl from Magistrate's Orders) and Pryce (the boy from Loose Ends) would be a good fit for the list of returning character. I just hope that if Charade comes back in DA3 they give her a makeover like they did to Isabela and Merrill when they were put in DA2.

Ya know, for a second I thought you were referring to that little elven girl that theplayer saves from that psychotic killer. Was already planing on posting a pedobear picture when I recalled who Gamlen was...

It'd be nice to have her as a connection to Hawke, I think I've mentioned this before at some point.
