You miss understand the Qun.thats1evildude wrote...
Be ruthless. Show no mercy, except when mercy furthers your goals. The one thing that I've observed of qunari is that they don't really cotton to any concept of charity or sympathy. The qunari are inclined to look after their converts, but the unenlightened bas are all the same.
Respect might. The qunari choose their military commanders through trials of combat. Sten's respect for you grew after you kicked his ass at Haven.
Be brutally honest. Lies are the weapons of humans and elves.
It's not about being ruthless and showing no mercy, it's about getting to the goal. The thing with the qun is that indivisuality has no perpose. A person is just a part of a greater body.
What does it matter if a few cells die if the body lives. Added , the Qun believes that there is more then one way to get to an end. Look at the heart of the meny and you'll see that.
Sure, the milatary qunari respect strenght but they also repect knowlege, order, and self control.
The qunari are not a blunt weapon but a scaple.

When has a qunari ever lied? They withhold information. That's not the same thing, at least to a qunari.
Exactly, according to the Qunari. They can lie their faces off, mislead at every turn and because they do it they fall back on 'technicalites' such as 'we just didn't inform them that our bombs held a neuro toxin that could kill hundreds' all the while berating others for their lies and deceit.

If I'm an unrestrained qunari mage, I'd be "Bas Saarebas" then...yes?

Ahhhhh I get it. "Unrestrained" as in not restrained by the Qun.

I'll most likely give my Qunari PCs Turkish names, since the Qunari seem to be somewhat modeled after the Ottman Empire.
Even if we'll be a deservter of the Qun, the PC's physical appearance will be enough to link them back to that life, giving themselves a name in the Qunari language just seems like another link they wouldn't really want, imo (especially since they have power over that particular decision).

Saarebas means "dangerous thing". It give to mages because magic can't be controled.

I used to name my Warden "Death". Also I made a Death Hawke. Maybe to pay homage to the tradition, I could name my fem qunari "Kata" - aka "death, the end". Fits with the theme of the whole game too.

Why are you asking for advice on roleplaying in a game that has yet to be released?
I think the word "hypothetical" answers this question.
Edit: Also, I'm just excited about the game. These forums were designed for the proverbial "geeking out"...

I'm hoping for a Qunari that was born outside of the Qun, otherwise I would severely have to limit myself RP wise, I think. Even Tal'Vashoth accept their status as a role, they're not truly free, right? And I don't really see any words on the Qunlat entry in the wiki that really appeal to me as names.
I'll most likely give my Qunari PCs Turkish names, since the Qunari seem to be somewhat modeled after the Ottman Empire.

Although I doubt the PC will have ever been a part of the Qun, this makes me think that, hypotheticaly, a Tal-Vashoth would use words of the common language to name her/himself the way the Qunari use theirs. Due to her/his culture it would be more meaningful to call her/himsel Mercenary, Merchant or, hypotheticaly, Inquisitor. It would also be a way of rebeling against the Qun to reject the term Tal-Vashoth.

If it doesn't fit the Inquisitor for whatever reason, there is always the possibility of using it for a short fanfiction or something.
Just a suggestion.
