I also think the priestess in the chantry writes too.
Also, Peaches is Carvers girlfriend unless Hawke is male. There is also someone who writes Bethany, a old friend.
I don't think anyone writes Hawke though, s/he just kinda reads his/her family's mail.
Will the inquisitor have family in Inquisition?

As long as the family members are like in Origins (important at the start, but with the time to know and care for them, without preimposted relationship, and after they became just NPC who is fun met again and chat with) I'm more than ok.
al long as aren't as the Hawke family, with the imposed relationship (why Carven must antagonize a big sister? why can't he love his big sister and be the jelous little brother, who treaten every guy (or girl) who try to take away his sister from him? and why Bethany can't be gelous of her big sister, who seems to have the cute guys gather all around her? sane little competition between sisters) and the only reason those people where there seems to be forced drama.
expecially Leandra. one of the most unuseful character of all the game. i was happy she died.

I hope there are no relatives.
DA2 had enough dead relatives .
They would just get killed or kidnapped.

Let's hope not. I don't want any more incest requests.
Good grief, was that really a thing?
I lost it when I heard about the Bethany and Carver LI mod.

By 'family,' you mean people who die tragically, right?
Maybe this time they could try to kill you instead. That would count as self defence given their normal fate which you describe here. Of course you'd probably end up killing them then...
Bhelen already tried that.

Good point, I never did play dwarf noble. Come to think of it the story of the Baldur's Gate series is a bit like that too. Okay, I take it back, it's been done.

No kidding.
Can you imagine a protagonist having family was is just nice or semi-normal, living in the farm or estate back home? Maybe you visit them once just so the player knows they're alive, they ask you how you're doing and express pride or disappointment in what you've accomplished (depending on what kind of family they are), and/or they send you letters and care packages as you travel the world?
Every player would just be waiting for the moment the family ends up slaughtered or taken hostage or something. Can you imagine how everyone's minds would be blown if we made it to the end of the game and nothing tragic happened to them?

Everybody has a family - father and mother at least. Whether they are still alive is another matter. Anyway, it is quite hazardous to be related to a Bioware protagonist.Will the inquisitor have family in Inquisition

I'd love a story like Robb Stark and his mother Catelyn (without red wedding of course!)

If there is family, I'm betting you'll meet them at the start and watch them die horrible deaths when the veil tears.

Time for another resurrection.
lol.
What prompted this for me is a DA2 thread.
Apparently, depending on how hawke looks, Bethany and Carver will look slightly different in each playthrough, so their appearances are somehow tied to the way hawke looks.
Only played DA2 twice, so I wouldn't have known that.
I bet a lot of players don't know about that.
I didn't like hawke's mom being murdered, or the choices for Bethany and Carver in DA2 .
Having family that wouldn't be killed as a useless plot device , and I've changed my mind, would be ok.Maybe show us another side of the Inquisitor.
shrugs.

The death of a sibling after meeting them for five minutes and that death is based on whatever class you selected was bad and it was only a taste of what was to come. At least have had a little time in Lothering to meet them and even show the darkspawn attacking. That was one thing we never saw in DA:O and I figured it would have been a no-brainer to create a strong link between the two DA games.

You should play that origin, perhaps my favourite one. Very very well done by BioWare.

Honestly don't think Bioware would be willing to put so much effort into the 4/8 different Origins(maybe even more) If you have Family, they won't be fully scripted.
What might be cool is if they made one of the Companions or maybe support characters throughout the game a Family member of one of the Origins(specially interactions ect.)
Example. Human Origin could be a cousin of Cassandra? Dwarf/cousin of Varric? Qunarii/Iron bull
Elves/ect.
Would be an interesting aspect to game play maybe have more sway on the character due it the family bond in hard decisions

I thought the same thing about Carver when I first played. But one playthrough I actually took the time to actually get Carver into the friend zone (without sacrificing the way I felt about mages). Of course Carver is still a ****** in the first Act but in Act 2 and 3 he actually treats Hawke with respect and admiration and is actually kind. So I wouldn't't write him off just yet. But there's my two cents on that. But back on track on the having a family bit, I think it's a good idea. With my track record of Wardens (Brosca and Tabris) I like having the element of having a family to fight for. But they would have to be non companions. They'd just get in the way otherwise.
