If he's an LI, I wouldn't mind him being outwardly flamboyant and extravagant, but loving sincerely and earnestly.  Perhaps flirtatious and dramatic day to day but candid and open when he falls in love.

 

Then again he could be a devious, flamboyant dandy 100% of the time and I'd still be all over it.

I'm a sucker for extroverted, confident characters, so I'm biased towards him being charismatic and witty over super srs.

Yeah, because so many people have compared him to SWTOR Doc, I can't help but think there could be some overlap there. Confident, shameless (brazen) and equally comfortable with a vast array of individuals. Also, way into casual sex. 

 

We can leave the sexism and bog standard commitment issues at the door, however. I could handle some socially-ingrained racism against qunari and/or elves as long as it gets worked out over the course of the game.

"Brazen" doesn't necessarily imply flamboyant, but it could mean a lot of self-belief and unwillingness to be modest or defer to social convention. Ditto for how "clever" seems to be a synonym for witty, in this instance.

I imagine that if he's painted as a particularly powerful mage, he wouldn't care for how he was perceived socially. The "scary Tevinter magister" thing could even be act to trick people, or at least play a joke with new acquaintances.

(If Dorian is still in, I'd actually love it if they introduced him by having him act like a menacing and sinister Tevinter magister towards the party before breaking character and revealing that he's nothing like that.)

Hard to tell. I think they close that name and maybe even that appearance for a reason, and a lot of it would fit with him being a dandy.

Peacocks, appreciating mahogany, dat facial hair...

I really need to read more about Faust.

Oh no. Faustian pacts. Not DHMG! :/

Edit: OH GOD WILDE'S DORIAN WAS ALSO BASED ON FAUST.

If you wanna go "DaVinci Code" on us, Take Dorian Gray  work the letters and you get "Airy Dragon", eheh... As for Dorian Pavus you get Ad Pavo In Rus which means "The Terror Upon The Country"

I really love the idea of Dorian as a sort of Dorian Gray character.  <3

"Dorian Pavus" is also an anagram of:

- "proud avians" (peacocks!)
- void puranas
- arson diva up

(and many other hilariously unprintable things)

Oh hush now, that's not very DaVinci-Code-Conspiracy-Like of you.

We could analyse who is leaning away from the Inquisitor in the War Room art to find the location of the Sacred Ashes again, before tracking down a literal descendent of Andraste?

The DA Vinci Code, even.

I don't see him in the new trailer with the ingame version of the War Room photo. Sadness.

You beat me to my edit. But yeah, his standing at profile made me miss him at first. Glad he's still there. I was looking to the left cause of how the original art was done and thrown off by the weird looking blondy behind Solas. That guy kind of looks like a human sized Sandal. Maybe Cole? I forget what his appearance was described as.

DHMG is more attractive in game than I was expecting, honestly. I will be so disappointed if he's not an LI for m/m. He's so easily the most attractive guy in the game.

I was just  about come in here to post this exact same thing!  He looks great!  I'm a fan, for sure.  Hoping that he's one of the companion LI's now!
