"That is mahogany!"
It's funny because Gaider posted a comment saying that they had that same thought but imagined that it would be Scribe GIrl saying it. So I really think we might be a bit off with our characterization of DHMG, to be honest.
Also, if the first picture that we saw was the one from my avi, I doubt that we would be assuming that he's going to be camp gay.
Yeah, I was going to say before that it's interesting how much one picture can shape perceptions of a character.
But the flaily hands in the War Room pic must've been there for a reason, and if the artists wanted to show off some small part of their character, then he does look more dramatic than most.

Yeah, it really is amazing how much we've drawn from so little seen. I've just been of the fond hope that DHMG is a bit of a melodramatic, mildly prima donna (or I guess in this case it would be primo uomo) type of guy, based on the flailing alone, and my whole "Dandy!Dorian" schtick came about because of the magnificent state of his tash. I might be a little heartbroken if he isn't even a little bit of a Drama King, haha.

Especially since we can see personality coming through in different ways for different characters we already know, like Cassandra's confrontational/aggressive approach, Cullen's frustated, but less 'in your face' attitude, Varric being assertive and outspoken etc.
That picture always makes me think that Solas is probably pretty relaxed even in confrontational situations, Scribbles is a non-action type (since she seems shocked by merely stabbing a table), while DHMG always looked pretty exasperated to me. Maybe it's a lot to read into it, but I tend to think he's pretty composed and cultured usually, but the dramatic hands come out when he's feeling pretty emotional or strongly about something. I can see him thinking it's pretty crass to start stabbing tables too, heh.
Even the positioning makes me wonder, since Cassandra and Varric are both very assertive, and they're right up to the table in the action. Then you've got Leliana sort of slipping in unoticed, and Cullen trying to pitch in but not being as prominent.
Yeah, I probably am reading too much into it all. 
After lurking for a while, I've decided to, erh, unlurk!
I really love all the ideas going around for what they'd like our DHMG to be, but, wow, I just want him to be suave. Really suave. 'Cause damn, my Inquisitor will be all over that. Just not creepy suave.
I also really like the concept of him be a little dramatic and daring but without making him a completely comic/idiotic character.
And just adding my two cents in on this 2/2/2 romance options and the possibility of DHMG being the gay companion, personally I hope he's available for both sexes. But I have no qualms on what sides he bats for. Either way, I believe he'll be a fantastic character and will most likely have him in my party 10000000000000% of the time.
Would be epic if Varric's nickname for Dorian turns out to be DHMG 
But it might be too long...

Varric: ... "Tevinter"?
Dorian: *shakes head* Come now, Varric, you can do better than that!
Varric: "Moustache"?
Dorian: Absolutely not! I don't care how fine my facial hair is, you aren't naming me for it. You don't hear me calling you "Chest Hair" on a regular, do you?
Varric: *wearily* Fine, then what about "Surprise Meatballs"?
Dorian: *raises eyebrow* Tell me you're joking.
Varric: *frustrated* Okay, how about "Dramatic Hands Moustache Guy"? We can shorten it to DHMG.
Dorian: Dramatic Hands M... oh, you're not even trying, are you?! And what is that supposed to mean, exactly?! *gestures dramatically*
Varric: ... Or maybe I'll just nickname you "Diva" in all my stories of the Inquisition, and call it a day.
Dorian: *splutters* What?! Inquisitor! Control your dwarf and his flights of literary fancy this instant!
Inquisitor: *smothered laughter* You brought it upon yourself, Dorian. You've been badgering him about this for days.
Varric: *shrugs and smirks* That's what happens when you incur the wrath of my muse, Pavus.
Dorian: Ugh! *throws hands up in the air dramatically and leaves the room in disgust*
Inquisitor: ... "DHMG", huh? Fitting.
Varric: *smug* I thought so too.
Ha, I really want to see your banters in the game, Giki. They're right on the nose for how I see DHMG and his interactions with the other companions.
So it is possible D.Gaider writes Dorian? Sounds pretty possible and good imho

Nope. Nothing we have so far points to him writing Dorian. Heck, we weren't even sure Dorian was a real companion till he popped up in the trailer last week.

Nothing except his post on Tumblr. Yep.
Well, I was pretty sure. Not sure about you tho, but that's not the point
I say it is possible, not that is is 100% true

What, the whole "adorable" comment about the Dorian fanart? Yeah, that's really compelling evidence.

Evidence? Pffft, what evidence? It's a hint at best
It is still possible that Gaider writes him. I don't see why not.
Unless, I don't know, he has some kind of Tevinter-phobia
Evidence? Pffft, what evidence? It's a hint at best
Hardly a hint. Just because he saw a piece of fan art that he liked doesn't a hint make.

Well, whatever you think, buzzkill 
I won't change my opinion, though

Aw, thanks for the huge compliment, Rue! I've got my fingers crossed for Drama!Dorian, too, that's for sure. 
I am so buzzing for this guy, he's the companion I'm most excited for them to reveal. I hope his time as a Tevinter Magister really reflects onto the story, he'll hopefully uncover some of Thedas's secrets. Aside from his background I'm stoked to hear his VA and dailogue within the game, as well as witness his mannerisms of course.

I might get struck down for saying this but I'm almost more curious for Follower Friday info on DHMG than Solas. ALMOST. (I'm so sorry, I'll love you forever and ever Solas 
)
I'm stoked for DHMG more than Solas easily 
.
I'll definitely be romancing the hell out of this man, even after knowing so little about him!
Yes!!! Fall to the stache!!!I might get struck down for saying this but I'm almost more curious for Follower Friday info on DHMG than Solas. ALMOST. (I'm so sorry, I'll love you forever and ever Solas
