I can't think of any songs in my library that won't ruin my street cred so... I agree with all yours!

 

Also, I think MAYBE... maybe... companions might have a couple specific spells/abilities that are unique to them? Maybe? Dorian can reanimate or has some massively uber powerful fire spell or incantation. Maybe. MAYBE?

Because he's fabulous, because he broke a lot of girls' hearts when he was outed, and because I have a bias towards the Studio Killers...

 

Part of my work-out playlist, actually...

Was he, "outed"? Or had he always known and was open about it? I don't think we know yet... or we might never know.

Ah, I was referring to the interview and that a lot of players who wanted to romance him as a female character were disappointed for a time as a result.

- The weakened Fade - everyone of dorians spells gives him a portion of his mana back when cast ( passive)
- Merciful - Dorian heals party members by 50 % of his minions total health ( if there is no minion spell is inactive - it doesn't cost mana )
- Master of Life and Death - Dorians minions gain bonuses to armor, life, damage and healing the better gear the mage is wearing and the longer they are with him ( the bonuses for being alive cap at 25 % other 25 % can be earned by gear only ) (passive)
- Hand of the Magisterium - Dorian resurrects fallen party members and minions ( If Dorian is the last one standing the cooldown of the spell is halved )
- Fury of The Fade - Dorians minions shed the skeletal forms and become pure embodiments of the Good Spirits from the Fade - gaining new abilities and  powerfull auras (passive):
 - Warrior - Spirit of Justice - Aura " Just do not fall " bonus to health and armor

Stahp, now I'll be disappointed if these aren't in the game!  D:  (Really great brainstorming, though.  The spells all sound really cool!)

Literally everything I've seen of Dorian is him being paired with an elf, qunari or human. Why is everyone so against a nice Inquisidwarf for Dorian? :v

 

CadashXDorian is my OTP

 

*Watches in horror as he is revealed race gated for dwarves.

I guess that fan base comes up a bit short?  (sorry I love a cheesy joke now and then)

I don't think he'll be gated at all, so hopefully there will be fan art for your taste soon!   :D

Or maybe it is just the way we want to see him. I don't he'll be gated. The only romance I can think will be gated is Sera, and that is just speculation because she's a city elf. Sorry human Fem Quiz.

No one's race-gated.

The "last two" are bisexual.

They've increased the LI to twelve.

There's another straight male and female.

Along with a homosexual male and female, making it a 4/4/4.

All is right with the world. Wars stop. World hunger ends. Etc, etc.

I'm tempted to make this my permanent party. I just know I won't be able to resist the optimum amount of sass and sarcastic brilliance of this trio.

But, uh, what's the team name for Vivienne, Dorian, and Solas?

Not much a team name, but a team... song?

Well if you aren't playing as a rogue, I guess it could be team "abandon all hope" if you run into a locked door on a mandatory path!   :lol:

I fondly remember the "Open Lock Spells" mod for DA:O, for when you didn't want to run with a rogue in your party. Surely some enterprising mage would have created a spell to unlock doors and chests.  :huh:

That's cheating!  No mods for me anyway, since I'm a console player.  Still, I always have to have one of each class type.  I have ocd and a deep fear of missing something cool.  -shrug-  

 

Right now my first team is looking like Male elf mage, Dorian, Varric and Cassandra.  Though I may talk myself into playing a rogue yet, and then it'd be Dorian, Cassandra, and leave the last spot open for whoever the mission seems to call for story-line wise.

Whoo! Fellow peasant console players- only because playing games on my computer would detract me from my work even more so and I'm so shitty with the controls anyway! So... no mods for me either.

 

And yeah, like your configuration, Dorian looks like he'll be a main fixture in my party.

I'm a console player, too.  :P

 

I haven't decided what my party will be, but I always take my LI with me.

Cheating, me? :whistle:  At least the mod implemented it as a spell you had to level up, so it wasn't just a one-click skeleton key.

 

Besides Dorian, I'm going to have a very difficult time deciding on the companions for my first playthrough. Trying not to miss any cool content in this game sounds like it's going to require a few playthroughs and companion shuffling.

 

EDIT: Regarding mods, I think I read that there's no plans for a modding toolkit because of the technical complexity implementing it in Frostbite. It might also be to promote buying DLC, but that's neither here nor there...

The Dorian thread is slipping to the second page of the parent thread

78554-NPH-NO-gif-HIMYM-Imgur-GocE.gif

 

 

Here, let me perform mouth-to-mouth on Dorian I mean, here have a look at this WIP drawing:

 

tumblr_n9150bRYP61tgm7hjo1_1280.jpg

 

I still have a lot of work left since I don't paint very fast. I've not practiced my digital art as much as I would have liked over the past years, since I keep starting stuff and never make the time to finish it. DAI has inspired me, though, so I'm using the fanart as a way to practice again. 

 

Anyway, it's a scene of him before he decided to leave Tevinter. Hopefully the concept is clear already even though it's not finished, but I'll probably post more about my headcanon for it once it's done.
