You know, I was totally already 100% interested in this dude when all we had was the mustache-guy-is-the-best-thing-in-that-map-room-art picture, but all this fan art is dialing it up to 11. Rawr.
please be bi, sir
This thread is definitely full of awesome fanart 
I'm constantly impressed every time I peek in. So much talent

Yeahhh I think we all know he's going to be the m/m romance.
I am not going to give up on it until it's confirmed. 
I'd laugh if the m/m option turned out to be Blackwall. One of the main reasons I don't see it happening is that Blackwall seems to overlap in type too much with Iron Bull, being the big burly warrior type, and IB is probably going to be a/the bi male option.
I confess I was fairly 'meh' about Dorian originally, but the amount of fan art and squeeing in this thread has thoroughly converted me. I suspect he will be a core member of my party regardless of whether I romance him or not.

My fangirl symptoms don't appear until I get actual info about a character. Tbh Dorian's concept art was fulli sik but no idea what he was like so I lurked. Now he's awesome so im breaking out in fangirlism.
Don't know why, but I want to say something royal blue with white and green accents? Kinda half long coat? 17th century France-like cut?... peacock feather in the mask? I don't know, fancy wear isn't my strongest point (or clothes in general. Case in point: below)
And on that note, my friend is a horrible art-enabler who only gives a token "no, don't", so I blame him (and my poor imagination at 23:00 in the night).
I just found Dorian's romantic scene it is call Gone With The Veil.
That movie is fabulous. That dress Scarlett makes out of the curtain is amoosen.

*snippy*
I saw that one as a kid, so I don't remember much, or what that scene was about. But from that snippet, it looks, uh... Wrong.

It looks a bit ...rapey, no?

Gone With The Wind is hard to cite from without a ten minute scene. I was this or
This is what is going to happen to us if we learn Dorian is not romance-able.

Is there a ever a romance scene that doesn't come out a little rapey?

They've shown off proper Tevinter heraldry in the Bioware store:
This obviously matches the symbol on the Venatori, and maybe even the dragon tail/serpent image on the legs of Dorian's War Room outfit.
I assume that is his "iconic" look, now, since it seems like a variation of what he was wearing in the survey concepts - and it's what he was wearing during the demo.
When he gets a proper reveal, I'd love to ask the character artists what inspired his design. That white robe almost looks like a Roman senator, as some people pointed out a while ago - which does fit the role of magister.
Anyone have a clue who wrote him? For a while, I wondered if it was Sheryl. Or maybe David, if he did indeed write more than just Cass and Cole.

Was staring at it for reference as I paint, so I'll throw it in here for you, though this one is blurry.

The fabric thing on his legs looks more like it has a snake with it's tongue out than dragons to me.
I like his shoes...

Considering that Tevinter is inspired by the Byzantine Empire, the eastern part of the former roman empire after it's split, I wouldn't be that surprised if there's indeed stuff like that amongst the inspirations for him. If I'm not mistaken there was a lot of cloaks and wrapped fabric commonly found there, made out of richly decorated fabric. Which would fit in with the World of Thedas description of the Tevinters sharing Orlais love for volume and decoration, if not their love for bright colours.
On a less related note, I do want that shirt. Now if the EU store was actually operational/stocked properly.
I'm really looking forward to seeing all the variations for the companions, especially Dorian since we haven't seen much of Tevinter's style.

His clothing is rather colorless and I still don't see the colorful allusions to the Byzantine in Tevinters outside of the Tevinter robes in DAO/A... I mean in the comics they're wearing gawth grim darrkkk stuff. Now they're wearing white (Alexius too). Hope there's some more Tevinter stuff ala DAO in this game so I can dress him and my mages in style (I have a playthrough right now in DAO and most of my party is in Tevinter stuff, we look so out of place). Not to say I don't like his default costume. I love it, but it looks more Classic Roman to me. (Maybe that's his emphasis though, return to the 'roots')
