Templar : The Order Dictates.......

Qunari : The Qun Demands............

Dwarf : By The Stone will you two just STFU

[KnightXE]

sure.

I'll make a Pro-Chantry warrior or Spirit Healer in one of my playthroughs.

[dragonflight288]

I'll wait to see what the options are.

[netminder17]

Yeah, I'm pro-mage all the way! 

Will probably do a play-through like this eventually, but it's not my canon for sure. 

[laudable11]

My question is..who appoints the Inquisitor? The Chantry? The Grey Wardens? Seekers maybe? A King or Queen...the Imperium???

The Inquisition will be independant so the Inquisitor could be self appointed.

[laudable11]

You Could be right cjones91. Maybe all the powers decide who becomes the Inquisitor. The Inquisition may be created by all the powers of the Land...I can't wait to find out.

 The Imperial Chanty says hello 

[Trolldrool]

So far, despite their hypocritical attitude towards magi and their failure to deal with the situation, the Chantry is the only organization in the game so far I've seen that encourages charity and helps widows, orphans and the impoverished.

Maybe when I see another organization in Thedas that does the same, I'll ditch the Chantry, but until then they have my support. As long as they don't go trying to oppress my pro-Chantry magi.

The Inquisitor, as things stand now, is the sole survivor of something, right? I took from the information given that the (new) Inquisition is formed independently by peope trying to contain the chaos, but that some kind of disaster killed all but one, and this survivor takes it upon herself to rebuild the Inquisition and carry on its goal of saving the world from itself.  So I don't think any outside organization forms the Inquisition or appoints anyone as the High Inquisitor.

Would it make any sense to make a Blood mage inquisitor who is Pro Chantry?

[aphelion4]

I always played a Mage supporting (but not Anders-fanatical) Andrastian who is more than open to everyone having their own faith, etc. I don't see why people think you could only be one or the other. Not everyone is a religious quack. :>

So if Inquisition allows, I'd like to continue playing a rational, open-minded character.

[Rawgrim]

Nor really pro chantry, but given all those insane blood mages I ran into in DA2, the ones who attacked me even if I supported them, the chantry seems the lesser of two evils at the moment.

I could see it if perhaps the Blood-mage learned blood-magic through circumstances that  didn't involve anything with demons. It *does* occur. :innocent:

[Lee80]

I usually play a character that is in the middle on the matters of religion. I suppose they would think like Leliana-the maker loves everyone not just devout pious followers, etc.

My characters would not dislike someone just because they believe something different, but would rather learn from their culture and would never try to force anything on them-(religious wise anyway).

Would anyone play a pro-chantry inquisitor? Maybe allowing people to set up a chantry at the castle or fight in favor of the Andraste? I like how you can set up a chantry in Orzammar to promote the teaching of the Maker. Since I play as a mage in my first file, I may be pro-mage, but in a subsequent playthrough, I may play a dwarf who believes in the Maker. I know that the Chantry has been vivified by a lot of people here, so I'm just wondering if anyone would roleplay as one. You don't necessarily have to support the chantry personally to roleplay as one. 

nah, i can't (goes against personal believe and my "self-insert" playing style (no "roleplaying" - i am my character (just a different version of me, with mage-powers))

and quite frankly i don't want to, there are only a few things worse then chantry in DA - the qunari, some dragon-cults, some cults of blood-mages (blood-magic itself is not bad though - like a gun is not bad, but murderers and crazies still use them), demons and slavers of any kind!

now, why do i see the chantry as bad:

forcing people to believe and suppressing non-believers (the dalish for example!)

meddling in politics (church should not have political power at all IMHO)

caging an entire race of human beings (yes: mages - they are a unique races and their racial trait is magic) just for being born differently (and interpreting the words in their holy-texts so that they support his, even if they can be interpreted differently, too!)

having their own army (well not anymore, even if that makes that army even more dangerous and unpredictable!) - yes, the freakin' templars (and the seekers)

etc.

so no way in hell!

Religion is not bad, it's the people who use religion to justify their misdeed that are bad. Slavery was justified using religion, but that doesn't mean that the religion itself endorsing it, it just means that people were using religion as a way to suppress people. I feel like the fault lies more than in the corrupt government than with the Chantry. If the Chantry can be reformed, it could actually be very helpful in rebuilding Thedas. 

[ISpeakTheTruth]

I'm pro 'Black Chantry' its views on magic is the correct one and the one that will hopefully be adopted during or after the inquisition. The "White Chantry' is based on fear and using that fear as justification to do horrible things to people and then it wants to act surprised when people react badly to its treatment.

The Chantry needs a reform, use the Black Chantry as the core but remove the government influence and you've got yourself a solid religion.

[dragonflight288]

Hmm. I'm thinking of having a mage, if given the option, to be staunchly anti-chantry BUT a devout Andrastian. Meaning, he believes in the Chant of Light and the Maker only as far as the Chant of Light actually teaches, and rejects both chantries interpretations.

[Bluto Blutarskyx]

 I intend to play an anti-Mage-anti-chantry character if possible.

someone somewhat based on the spirit of rehs Solomon Kane character who is a somewhat religious minority seeing the mages as abominations not worthy of life and the existing chantry and all its officialss as a betrayer of the maker and deserving of death.

Hmm. Interesting philosophy. And what of the Qun?

Hell no.
