It's 99.99% that we do in fact get Cullen (the only missing thing is direct announs with the name).


Nope, the odds are quite against him, actually

A full-fledged, proper templar? With a mage Inquisitor or Vivienne? I imagine we'll have some enlightening party banter to enjoy.

cullen is a templar, can we have him as a party member, i'd totally be up for that, not sure he'd be so nice to my mage though, as long as none of the companions from dao or da2 other than varric come back as companions i'll be ok, too bad we cant have shianni as a companion, i'd love that, or maybe nathaniel, he'd be awesome

Don't see that much of a problem with Vivienne, since she has a pro-Circle stance. I doubt that the templar we might get is one who wants to kill all the mages.
I'd say that there might be more problems with the possible magister companion.

It should be no different from Aveline, Captain of the City Guard, palling around with a pirate, an elf who killed the previous owner of the house he inhabits, a dwarf involved with the Carta, three apostates while standing idly by a Hawke commits all manner of illegal actions. 

So, we've had Circle Mages, Apostates Mages, human mages, elven mages and blood mages. I think we can stand to have a full blown templar as companion for once.

Lyrium-addicted Cullen? Yeah, gimme, please!

Cullen: Anyone seen my lyrium pouch?
Inquisitor: Pouch? What pouch...oh, you mean that one.. It accidentally slipped into chasm last night. Ooops?

We even get Sten, a qunari working with Morrigan and Wynne, two mages, and Velanna, a dalish completely against humans (at least initially) to work with humans. It shouldn't be that different for a templar companion.

Why odds are against him? I'm not sure why but I would like to see him in our team. I think I have arleady got used to thought that he will be a companion.

I don't see a problem either. I was just thinking the banter could be interesting. I know vivienne is pro-circle, but I don't know a thing about her personality. Is she like a ditzy fashion-freak? Did she rise to First Enchanter like Orsino did, because no one else wanted the job or did she play 'the game' to rise up? I don't know her working relationship with the templars, if she liked them and was a loyalist, or if she was like Anders in Awakening, when he said he didn't care for the circle but demanding to leave it had disaster written all over it (until DA2, and then his opinion changed.)

What odds exactly? We even saw direct promice of return of "that Knight Captain". Plus the leak, plus some art, plus huge fan-base. I see only "yes" signs here.

We also have Cassandra, Iron Bull, and an unnamed Grey Warden. That's an awful lot of warriors. And the mere fact that he's been mentioned as returning without specifying "party member" suggests he isn't returning. I'd be delighted to be wrong, but I see him continuing as an NPC.

Well, nothing stopped them from making a 'ranged-only squad' in DA2.
I mean, archerHawke had only Fenris (potentially not recruited\\gone), Aveline and Isabela (very likely gone). The rest of the team was ranged or magic(which is also ranged), DLC companion included.

So, I doubt that 'too much melee' can be a reason not to add Cullen (or any other Templar), if they wish to do so.

Personally I'd love to have an ex-templar human PC, with all his\\her background and in-game consequences.... But...we have no backgrounds to choose form, and I highly doubt, that they are going to pick Templar as the only possible human (not neutral enough).

Precisely! Not to mention, neither Iron Bull nor Warden are confirmed yet. If in case of Cullen that leak is one of the evidence of his presence, for two mentioned above the leak is the only evidence.

We already have Cassandra and Viviane - both human. Would be only fair to add a male human warrior as well. The only problem I see here is all three (including Cullen) are strongly pro-Circle and pro-Chantry.

Iron Bulls got a concept art shown at PAX (with his name) and was seen in the E3 Trailer, doesn't mean he's still a companions. Grey Warden had concept arts shown at PAX, was seen in the GI pre-alpha footage in the party (or at least someone who looks like him) and shown along Cassandra in the old followers customization blog last year.

Cullen got a leaked survey mentioning him as a possible companion and that is it....the rest is just that he's going to show up in DAI.

Very reassuring. Still, both lack one thing - big and loyal (and several years old) fan-base, begging for that particular companion. And don't forget straight male LI. There has to be one human for that role.

I admit, these are not direct evidences but taken together with a promice of Cullens return and a leak - looks strong enough to me.

The qouted part was for PC character, not for companion actually.  As for pro-Chantry Cullen - nothing stops writers to write him  in their own way. He could be pro-chantry, pro-mage, entirely indifferent or consumed with hatered for anything, that involves either side.

Ah, sorry, did not get it at first.

True enough - Cullen can be anything regarding mage conflict now. But should they make him pro-mage now... Well, let's say I would worry about his mental conditions. Considering his previous escapades.

hmm, going by DA previous games and some of Gaider's comment, I don't think that they create companions based on what fans are asking for....

I'm proud of you, BSN. A thread asking for a Templar companion without instant desire for murder.

We had a templar washout, which is pretty much the same thing as an apostate mage for not having an allegiance to the organization, along with two Chantry assassins and an anti-mage psycho, so the ratio isn't all that unbalanced.

Leliana wasn't a Chantry assassin at the time and she didn't have much to say on the Templar-Mage dynamic. Certainly not the same as a member of the Templar Order would, anyway.

Right, but I'd probably have to kill a member of the Templar Order who wanted to follow me around, if I couldn't convert them out of it.
