 Clasically there will be four - at worst - three LIs.
1) Itsy-bitsy Vivenne (similiar to Morrigan) OR tsundere Cassandra (similiar to tsundere Fenris)
2) Sex-obssessed/vulgar rogue Sera (similiar to Zevran and Isabella damn she even looks like their daughter)
3) Angsty-sweet blonde Cullen (similiar to Alistair and Anders) 
4) Sweet magister Dorian/that-bald-elf-from-concept-arts (similiar to Lelianna and Merril) 
If I we are lucky this time we'll get someone fresh - the unnamed Warden (he's brunnete, so unlikely, but still) or even the Iron Bull (how the fangirls will handle this XD?). No Varrik though, let's face it, he's too good for us

...I wonder if it's just a rumour 

Well that's....mildly annoying.
And also silly.
If true.

Er... we don't write hair colors. Art decides what the characters look like.

Even Aveline?

Yes. All our description of her to art was, "Don't make her too pretty." We don't care what color her hair is.

So... someone from Art had their wife leave them for a brunette male?

Didn't Kaidan have dark hair? And Jacob. And Carth. And Aaron Gend? I'm just sayin'... I think there's some holes in this theory big enough to drive a bus through.

If I had to guess, I'd say that people on these forums believe we spend as much time thinking about the romances as they do. As in just thinking about the romances, and not actually writing them. So us writers are tapping our chins for weeks on end, imagining things like what new and wonderful hair color our intrepid fans would be really excited about and how that would affect their background and personality.

How BioWare Fans Set Themselves Up for Disappointment: A Case Study

Yes. It's not lost on us that, when it ultimately does come out as to who is romanceable and who isn't, there will be people who have built up speculation to the point that those romances all but existed in their minds-- and we'll have taken it away from them like a beloved teddy bear. Yanked it right out of their hands as if a romance had already been written and we deliberately deleted it.

The idea that every character that is so much as glimpsed must provide concrete proof as to why they shouldn't be romanceable is a bit eyeroll-inducing, but such is life in these parts.
