1) Demons create an "Abomination Culture" - wherein demons now actively, and physically, hunt down mages to force into abomination form. The Broken Circle hints at this as being a demon motive - Uldred even says that mages are a larval stage of something greater (in his twisted vision).

2) The Qunari created the Veil tears as a distraction for their invasion. The Qunari are planning something, that much is obvious. An invasion of Tevinter or other parts of Thedas would be responded to immediately. Distraction from the Veil tears (and study of the results) would assist the Qunari in creating a beach-head - while diminishing the power of Thedas nations/mages/templars etc. Their "fear" of mages could, and I believe is, wildly overexaggerated by the calculated wording of Qunari we meet.

I'll go with a standard "Flemeth is responsible for much of the chaos engulfing Thedas because whatever her agenda is requires a weakened world so she can bring the change that Morrigan mentioned. She's acting on behalf of Fen'Harel. But the Veil Tears are also just a means to an end. Also Red Lyrium is the blood of the Forgotten Ones."

Not long after, there will be a "counter-culture" movement that will patronize hunting mages, saying "Abominating is WAY too mainstream" while smoking cigarettes and listening to Death Cab for Cutie.

Ironically, of course.

The main antagonist is going to be a small cult like group who are manipulating the nations and factions of Thedas into going to war so that the veil will tear completely. Their goal will be a mystery until the end game.

Demons will be the Darkspawn of the game.

Mage-templar war will be fight everywhere but in only in small battle with the main conflict being in one location.

Wardens and Darkspawn

Corypheus will still be in Janeka/Larius and be using the taint/blood magic to control the wardens’ hierarchy leading to a power struggle within the wardens. Corypheus will use darkspawn in the struggle If you spared the architect he will fight against Corypheus to keep the darkspawn free of his control.

Orzammar
Something will happen.

Morrigan and Flemeth
No real information will be given on what Flemeth is or her overarching plan but we will learn what her plans for Morrigan and the OGB are/were (if the dark ritual was not done) and what Morrigan is up to now.

GODS
No information on the existence of the marker or the Creators will be given one way or another.

Elf uprising 
City and Dalish elf will be fight to retake the Dales.It will end badly for them no matter what we do.

The Orlesian civil war
A human Inquisitor of can make a power move by way of a political marriage with Gaspard de Chalons or Celene

Ferelden
Something will happen
Ferelden views on the other conflicts will be shaped be the gray warden (for example having a Dalish or city elf warden would make ferelden more likely to help the elves)

Nevarra
Will have a major undead problem s they do not burn their dead.

Free marches
Something will happen

The fade and the black city
People will be dumb enough to enter the fade.
We will learn more about it and the black city but nothing will prove or disprove the chantry

The Inquisition 
The armys will be a cool feature but will be underused 

Red Lyrium
will now be found under every rock.

A side quest chain will lead the Inquisition to the discovery of a secret grove that is home to the last griffons in Thedas. This will unlock griffon mounts for the party.

Warden and Hawke will still be missing, and at the end The Inquisitor will disappear leaving us with no closure on the character or his companions....

I hope I'm wrong ;)

Leliana plays a important part, OGB is really not that big of a deal, and we can tame a dragon?

The end of the game all the Inquisitor's companions have been defeated and the lone Inquisitor is about to face the biggest, baddest, antagonist we have ever seen...a small noise is heard and a near bye door explodes off its hinges and in walks Flemeth with The Warden on her right side and Hawke on her left side. Flemeth looks at the Inquisitor and nods in approval and then looks at the big, bad antagonist, grins and calmly says, "Let's see what you got."

I feel like they're never going to answer truthfully the mysteries of the Maker, Golden City, and the Elven Pantheon. Maybe the Darkspawn taint and the Old Gods - because those two actually manifest in the physical world - but not all the legends and speculations the people of Thedas and we, have.

It seems like they're counting on more what those represent - as in the balance between faith and self-determination (as in free from the influence of gods).

All of which (the keep it as a mystery bit) I don't want to happen, but at the same time, it makes sense. The lore already stands on its own - without the answers. And if you say which one is god and which one isn't, you "finished" the entire universe Dragon age is built on. Meaning there's no bigger mystery in that world than the nature of the supernatural beings, and if you solve all that - the universe sort of becomes static in a way. ALL the major conflicts revolve around Magic and Religion, and in this universe, they always come side by side, never one without the other. I don't know if that makes any sense to any of you (I hope it does).


I'm assuming the plot will have some kind of "Illuminati" spin on it - not the real Illuminati, but the whole global conspiracy thing.

I also don't think Flemeth was helping the Warden or Hawke - more like guiding them through deceit. I wouldn't be surprised if there is some sort of "event" that takes place (you know, the ones that come every thousands of years or so - fantasy stories love these) with that being the main motivation for Flemeth to put in motion her plan that's she's been cooking for a long time.

Like you said "cosmic chess" where the Warden and Hawke are the Queen and Knight, while the Inquisitor is the little kid who comes up and flips the chess board, ruining the whole plan through intervention.

1&3 are the most interesting to me. They are so vague in a way that they might just be semi-accurate.

Black City will probably be part of the conflict, but probably not as a location - although I'm really hoping I'm wrong about this one, because I'd really like to see the supposed "paradise of the Maker turned black". It's probably just a prison for some power.

i like your theory.it sounds crazy and logical at the same time. the andrastians will be devastated:devil:


Thank you! It puts me in mind of that scene in Blade Runner where Roy meets the creator of the androids and says "It's not an easy thing to meet your Maker." Suffice it to say he gouges his Maker's eyes out and crushes his skull.

Here's the clip.

you are welcome ^^ i saw that scene when i was a kid, n it was disturbing :unsure:. idk if i want to see it right now but thanks 4 the link ^_^

Exactly what I was saying. The religion will remain and only a handful of people will know the truth, but there will be nothing that can completely destroy the doctrines and beliefs of any religion - whether elven or andrastrian.

Although I'd still like a big showdown between all the gods in this universe in one big epic battle royale. It's going to be Inquisitor, Warden, Hawke vs all the bad guys ever :D

 A theory regarding red lyrium - how it works, how The Red Templars are able to supply themselves with it and its effects on its users

A possible origin for Vivienne, the female mage companion.

A theory regarding the Kal-Sharok dwarves, their nature and the possible effects they and their informations might bring to the world if we make contact with them in DA:I .



Wow! Great theories and good observations - especially the one about templars turning into red lyrium creatures. Scary.

(3) There will be no conclusive evidence for or against the Maker's existence.
Rationale: either would destroy the nature of Andrasteanism as a religion based on faith, leaving Thedas without anything to anchor themes inextricably connected to such religions.

I believe the sacred ashes curing Arl Eamon are all the proof I need of the Maker's existence.  That, and the whole story of the darkspawn adds up.

Dumat is the main antagonist . Yes he's alive. With him are Corypheus and the other original Tevinter mages. Corypheus has possessed a warden as shown in Legacy. Plus his pals have corrupted some of the other wardens. So the Inquisitor will have to kill several wardens along with Dumat and his pals. They're causing the veil tears to wipe out humanity.
In addition to this we'll find out what Flemeth is and what happened to warden and hawke. The Inquisitor has to end the civil war in Orlais, decide whether to help the dalish, settle things between Orzammar and Kal Sharok, destroy the red lyrium and the red templars and decide whether to help the mages or templars or a middle ground, settle the Grand Cleric succession in the chantry.
All guesses on my part. I assume there's more to do we don't know about yet.

After just scanning briefly through this thread I'm curious as to why there's almost nothing to do with the darkspawn or the wardens.

Seems to me like the wardens at least are going to have some sort of impact.
