In my canon pt, Cassandra is Divine, with the Inquisitor Trevelyan as ally and lover. They control the Chantry, the Templars, the Inquisition, the rebuilt Seekers, and have contacts and allies everywere. They are probably the most powerful couple in Thedas. I think Cassandra will be fine :D


With the exception they arent a couple anymore =P

Default is meaningless. I thought everyone knew that?

Remember default Shepard in MassEffect2? He was a pro-human with no friends.

 

Along with a history of letting the Council die, which is much less convenient to the player than the alternative. 

 

Default is designed to be a mixed bag, though usually a difficult one. They want to player to feel compelled to build their own world to suit their own tastes.

That and they usually pick options that are easier to work with for new players

Apparently, that's up for the fans to decide or not.

That:

A. isn't a site rule

and B. isn't what I did.


Tell me about it.

Site rules are conveniently put aside by moderators at whim, and confrontation about its pointless.

Why would a human be anything but pro human?

Self-hate is very prevalent in the human species. We tend to be our harshest critics.

No I meant how can that mindset survive past first contact.

Our first encounter was a ****ing war.

Looks open to interpretation . I think the can be together, after all, who is going to oppose them? :lol:

Because it's a misnomer. The stances are pro-unity vs. anti-unity in reality.

Because you're not seeing the forest for the trees. "Pro-human", as Xilizhra pointed out, is a misnomer, and I suspect deliberately so--I didn't coin it--the whole self-hate thing. Kind of like hippies. But that's all rather complicated. How about this; default Shepard is a tool?

My brother's comments while playing the Inquisition Trial:

 

1. Dem graphics tho.

 

2. Who is this guy? Solas? Why is he cool, he looks like ****!

 

3. Who's this dude. Cullen looks like a rich boy. By that, I mean douchebag.

 

4. I like the chick. Cassandra. Would smash.

 

Number 4 and 3 made me so proud, lol.

Cullen isn't so much a douche as he has a mage staff up his ass all the time. It's military bearing.

Kind of how Americans could have communist sympathies during the Cold War or how UC-Irvine Students could label the American flag as a symbol of racisim, nationalism and imperialism(Just a real world example for Warder. Not looking to debate that non-Dragon Age topic). Regardless of where they were born, some people will choose to think that the society they grew up in is bad and therefor should be rejected in favor of some sort of alternative, be it another nation or none/all nations. In less extreme cases, they simply argue for great reform. In Mass Effect, you've got Garrus, who seems to favor a human point of view, or at least doesn't toe the turian line of thinking or Kaidan who definitely equates human interests to those of non-humans through use of a unified cause. Neither of them are in any way AGAINST their people, however. They both feel a great deal of loss for their homeworlds and clearly want to end their respective sieges.

 

Another POV is that some people favor what is best for the most amount of people, regardless of the 'tribal groups' that have been formed up to that point. They favor a unified voice rather than promote the interests of their birth 'tribe'. The Inquisition is actually a very good example of this. And Cassandra is an excellent example of a person who holds this point of view without rejecting where she has come from. She still favors the Chantry, but knows that the Chantry's interests are not important right now. She knows that the cause is bigger than her 'tribe'.

 

Don't get to thinking that I am against being proud of one's nation or heritage, or even aggainst nationalism as a rule. Just pointing out how both humans and non-humans can rationalize not being strictly pro-whatever their race/nationality is.

Indeed though he was just talking about his looks. My brother... uh, lol, he's a special one, but he got that much right. He lost me when he said Josephine was "ugly". Personally, I always thought she looked super pretty.

 

And then he got my respect back when he said leliana was ugly and stupid. He's never played any dragon age game before, and under thirty minutes or so already analyzed and correctly labeled Bioware's favorite character. LOL, that's my bro.

 

edit: Though Lels isn't ugly... but meh **** her, lol. Hated her since Origins.

Nah, have you seen half the faces he makes throughout this game, with his head turned slightly up? Total douche.

Thought he was constipated tbh. Must be the lyrium withdrawal.

Because "pro human" can mean any number of things when the label is as vague and nondescript as that.

Eh, at least he stoped being an whiny ass and started doing something useful for an change. My favourite part was when he didn't betray you for trying to recruit Samson. Better then an certain other blondie.

True enough; but honestly we never encountered anyone nihilistic enough to actually believe their species should die out.

Don't take the bait. It's best to just ignore some folks.

 

What's this? More drama, even when I'm gone?   :rolleyes:

 

Hope y'all are well.

As to the whole pro-human thing, humans should care only about advancing human interest. Everyone else already had a foothold on the Citadel. Default Showed also had the same hero worship as any other Shepard. It's just that they have all other humans.
