Vivienne, Cassandra, and Varric have been confirmed. I'll eat my hat if Iron Bull and the Grey Warden aren't in. That leaves four slots.

[daveliam]

I hope that they release the names and/or descriptions (screen shots, concept art, etc.) of the rest of the companions before the release date. I know that some people prefer not to be spoiled about companions, but I enjoy the companions, LIs, and their storylines the most about Bioware games so I love having some time to speculate about characters and how they will interact with each other/the setting.

Just to reiterate what others have said:

Confirmed:
Cassandra - human female warrior (Nevarran Seeker)
Varric - dwarf male rogue
Vivienne - human female mage (Orlesian circle mage)

Speculated with lots of evidence but not confirmed:
"Iron Bull" - qunari male warrior or rogue? (based on concept art and leaked survey text)
"Grey Warden" - human male warrior (based on concept art and leaked survey art and gameplay footage)
"Sera" - elf female rogue (based on concept art and leaked survey text and art and gameplay footage)
"Bald Elf" (Probably not "Dorian") - elf male mage (based on numerous concept art)

Speculated based on limited evidence:
Cullen - human male warrior (there's a guy who looks like him in the survey art and his VA has confirmed being back in the recording studio)
Cole - spirit? mage? rogue? (he was listed in the survey text and they mentioned that a character from Asunder will be in the game, but we haven't heard anything about him for months)
"Dorian" - male mage race unknown (he was listed in the survey text as a Tevinter magister, but we haven't heard anything since)

Other characters:
"Scribe Girl" - female human (she's in the concept art and survey art, but she seems to have a support role as she's not in armor or robes and carries a quill and scroll)
"Fancy Mustache Guy" - male human (he's also in the concept are and survey art carrying a trident, but we haven't seen much else of him)
Leliana - human female rogue (we know she's in the game, but her role is unknown at this point. Morrigan is confirmed as not a companion, so Leliana might play a similar role as well)

I think that this is it for now.

The survey means next to nothing, not everyone in it was a companion and some of them may not exist anymore or have changed significantly

Also the person who's from Asunder may or may not be a companion since they weren't to specific beyond that and there might be more than one character from there though they won't reveal anymore than that yet.

Cole is a spirit who uses blood magic which would probably make him a mage, he may or may not be a companion or he maybe be a dlc one we really don't know yet, and we aren't sure what the tear will do to him.

As for who might be the other one's, so far it looks like the blonde female elf is the most likely one, followed by Iron Bull, the old grey warden with beard, bald elven mage, Cullen, and probably a female character.

It's still way to early to tell who they are but there might be some hints but only time will tell.

If you could take a guess, who would the female be? Just a guess.

I don't know it could be just about anyone, Scribe Girl, Leliana, Sigrun, a female dwarf, a female elf, a rogue, a female warrior that depends on whether or not Cullen is a companion, a bard, a npc from DAO who got the Isabella treatment, a qunari female, shrug who knows but I doubt it's Charde Amell and some of them could be very unlikely.

As they are finished writing we might see them sometime in the next few months or less though not sure when that might be 

I'd be cool with Leliana. Who is this Scribe girl? Don't want Sigrun again. I really would like Charade to be a companion and LI, if not her then Yavana, I would love another Witch of the Wilds as a companion.

 

This person is the scribe girl or at least what we've been calling her, she could be a companion or an ally and a dev teased us with knowledge of her,  not sure if Leliana will be a companion or not and I wouldn't really mind either way but I think it's more likely she'll be an importantnpc , Sigrun seems popular so I just put her there shrug, the rest are just random guesses to try to make the ratio somewhat balanced.

Not sure I understand you're fascination with Charde Amell as she didn't really seem all that interesting and didn't have that much screen time but I guess it could be possible but highly unlikely though she may or may not pop up at some point in DAI.

As for Yavana that's probably extremely unlikely since if Alistair's alive he'll kill her so I kinda doubt that she'll be a companion though we may see her if he's dead who knows.

This basically , they said that not all those mentioned in the survey would be companions and that there are companions who have been scrapped. Plus some concept arts are quite old. 

I think that the Dorian guy was probably scrapped I also think Cole might may have been if he was ever considered. I doubt leliana will be a companion either. 

Iron bull/that Qunari was also in the trailer and that ingame photo that seemed to have been taken in the western approach so either he's a companion or that character visits the western approach for some reason. I guess it could have just not been the western approach though.

It's wishful thinking. Greg Ellis is confirmed to have done some voice acting for the game that will most likely be for Cullen and ofc he was in that survey picture, but that's hardly a 95% chance.

No need for spoiler tag when the game hasn't been released but no, no word on any other companions. But, if you look at all the concept art, you can get a good idea of the companion makeup. A male qunari named Iron Bull, a female elf rogue, a male elf mage, a male Grey Warden. And the wiki says someone from Asunder is supposed to be a companion in this game, who is that, we don't know, but I hope ,if it's true, that it is Adrian or Rhys. Im also hoping for Charade Amell as a companion and LI, but that is wishful thinking there.

I doubt it's Rhys or Adrian. Both would be busy trying to keep the other mages together and gathering together others who may still be scattered around in other countries.

There's a higher possibility that it'd be Cole as there has been some artwork of him bumping about, even if it was Aimo who did it. That and he was on the old survey. I'm hoping the male Grey Warden will be all mature, grizzled and hairy. I'm tired of young smooth skinned boys.

I like Charade because I got a really good vibe from her as a future companion. I like the idea of linked companions to past Protagonists or npc, so the Amell line interests me. I know I'm in the minority, but I'd be happy to see her as a companion although it may be unlikely. Also, Yavana could be stabbed by Alistair if he is alive and is king; Also, she is a witch, so she can survive what others can't. I really appreciate your knowledge and think you are a top BSNer for sure.

I think you mean minority.  I'm pretty sure that you are the only one banging the Charade Amell drum around here.  Not that there's anything wrong with it.  Go for it.  Plenty of other fanboys around here do.  However, don't be surprised if she's not even mentioned in DA: I.  She was fairly forgettable for most people, I think.

Whoops, I did mean minority and yeah, I heard other people bring up her name, but it's been a while. I'll just let the companion reveals happen since they already finalize the companions and are moved on to the bulk of the game.

 Okay am I the onlyone who can tell that the so called "Scribe Girl" is Vivienne without the hat and face paint. Just look at the pictures side by side. Both subjects are of the same complexion, and share the same fashion style in clothing. So, it makes since that the "Scribe Girl" is an early artist take of the character Vivienne.   

Modifié par joe2353, 15 février 2014 - 06:07 .

[dragondreamer]

"Scribe girl" and Vivienne aren't the same character. Pretty sure it was stated as such somewhere by a dev, and there was a glimpse of a lineup of characters on a video last year and Vivienne and "scribe girl" were both there separately.

Aww   I kind of want Nathaniel Howe to be the Warden companion (if a Grey Warden companion actually pans out).

No they aren't the same character though they do have the same skin color Gaider refuted this and they both also appear in the same image.

Not the same character as Vivienne, despite also having darker-coloured skin.

1st image is her and the third image is Vivienne, the image isn't of very good quality but you can see them both.
@ KC Prototype 

Thanks, though normally I might agree with you but as far as we can tell she was a normal human and got stabbed by Alistair right in the stomach which looks like it might've aerved her spine as it went completely through her stomach and out her back.

Also may have been bleeding internally aswell since it looks like blood was coming out of her mouth which isn't a very good sign so her survival is extremely unlikely and maybe just dependant on Alistair being dead.

Charde may pop up but that's entirely dependant on us going to Kirkwall which is possible and if she had a role in the unknown third dlc that was cut and the exhalted march expansion pack, since large chunks of both of them are now in DAI according to Gaider though we know next to nothing about them.

Thank you for the picture. I tried to find this pic but, all I found was the lineup from the survey. Maybe, I need to get my eyes checked (and my facts straight) dut, they just look so alike. I hope they change the Scribe's look some or I'm going to be getting her and Vivienne mixed up from time to time.

Charade had more screen time and more lines of dialog in DA2 than Isabella did in DAO.

The problem with Cole is that in Asunder he couldn't be seen unless he was about to kill you. May be the tear in the veil could have changed this. In any case he would be too much like Justice in Awakening if he could be seen, although I suppose that would give an opportunity for some interesting powers.

I hope that Dorian hasn't been cut. I liked the idea of meeting a decent Tevinter Magister, unlike the previous ones who seemed to fit the stereotype of evil blood mage peddled by the Chantry and Fenris. Mind you, even Asunder seemed to confirm the idea that all Magisters become corrupted by power and even Feynriel said that his experiences in Tevinter made him think that may be the Templars had a point. May be the elf mage will still be from Tevinter but not the ruling elite. We have already had mage companions from the Dalish in both Awakening and DA2, so it would be good to have a elf mage with a different perspective. A Tevinter mage might also have had access to archives giving details of what really happened in the war against the elves. I'm really just hopeful that there might be at least a sub-plot that allows us to delve more into elf history.

I'm pretty sure there will be a Qunari companion but less enthusiastic about a Grey Warden unless it links into Corypheus. I'd also prefer to have new characters rather than returning ones as given the experience with Anders, bringing back characters only ends in disappointment.

Oh dear God, no. I know I'm probably going to get so much rage for this but I sincerely hope that Cullen isn't a companion nor a romance option. But I can tolerate him being an agent of some sort, if Bioware truly wants him to be in the game. 

Ya don't get. See Dragon age isn't about the world. It was always about Cullen, and how many times he can be placed as a normal NPC before becoming a companion. A lot of people just think two is the lucky number.

[Han Shot First]

Varric, Cassandra, and Vivienne are the only companions confirmed so far. It looks like they might be the first three companions you recruit as well.

While not yet officially confirmed however, it looks very likely that Sera (female elven rogue), a middle aged male human Grey Warden (warrior), and the Iron Bull (Qunari Tal'Vashoth male..unsure if warrior or rogue) are companions. All three have appeared in multiple pieces of concept art, brief glimpses of the Grey Warden and Sera fighting alongside the Inquisitor were seen in a gameplay vid, and the Iron Bull plays a prominent role in one of the trailers. Of course all three were also in that leaked survey. At this point it would actually be more of a surprise if any of those three were not companions.

Also looking likely, although with slightly less evidence than the other three, is an elven male mage. He also appeared in a couple pieces of concept art.

Cullen is purely fan speculation. He may very well end up a companion, but at this point there is very little (if anything) that could be used as confirmation.

Well there is the survey pictures, a piece of concept with a guy that could be him and the fact that his VA tweeted that he had recorded some stuff for DAI. 

Not confirmation but it's likely that he was at least considered and it's likely that he will be in the game.

At about 1:17 or 1:18 you see Sera. She is just in front of Vivienne near the fire. When Sera runs near the tree, you can see a character who looks like the rumored Grey Warden companion.
