I don't see my Inquisitor and Cassandra becoming royalty in my first playthrough, but it might be interesting in another playthrough. My Inquisitor's main goal will be stability and supporting the Chantry with a few reforms thrown in.

I hate to be the one to say this, but it seems to me like Cassandra is very heavy on duty. I don't think that, should she ever be queen, she would marry casually or simply out of her own selfish desires. If something along those lines ever happens, I predict she will dump the Inquisitor in a very Alastair fashion.

I'd view that as a possibility as well, Unless if you can like Alistair convince them to make a small selfish choice.

 

Depends upon the context of a great many things we know nothing or little about.

This, I guess. I dont think Cassandra would actually deem it practical to marry and rule together with the Inquisitor.

Okay, now I'm sure she won't die in the first chapter.

 

 

I see!

Can I have that elevator please?

Cassandra and leadership can become an issue. Since I read Asunder, I've always wondered why Lambert was Lord Seeker instead of Cassandra. Shouldn't she have been a candidate, at least? Maybe she didn't want the position?

 

If Lambert was named to replace the guy who died in DotS, Cassandra was still a recruit Seeker at the time (despite saving everyone) and too young for the job. If he was named recently, it could have been politics at work (aka The Game) and Cassandra wouldn't have any power in that case (the decision is not taken by her).

Then, some other slob will take the throne. Preferably one that isn't a pawn of the Mortalitasi.

I see!

You have no honor.

Agreed.

That makes sense. As Master Warder has pointed out, we know little of Lambert after he left the Tevinter Chantry. The timeline would be very important in that case.

 

Still, given the results, having Cassandra as Lord Seeker would have solved many problems. Oh, wait, scratch that, if there was a conspiration, she may have ended up assassinated. You know what? I prefer her living and kicking ass in the Inquisitor's party.

She likely shares many of Lamberts views on Magic you realize? Unless if the Years have softened her much, but i doubt she approves of Blood Mage, Apostates and what have you still. That was my argument back in the Cass hates magic thread a while ago, she doesn't hate it but she like Lambert knows what it can do and what it can be and there is cautious of it and expects the worst from those who wield it.

 

Random Orlaisian Mage softened her a bit on in DOTS but we will see if that perspective survived until DAI or no, She has been doing the Chantry's work for two decades now after all

[Maria Caliban]

My question is, why does Cassandra help at all if she's not in charge?

My guess is that Cassandra is more interested in getting the job done than being the one in charge. She doesn't aspire to a leadership position.

That's true. However, we do know thanks to DA2 that she's willing to talk in a civilized way before starting to stab things (unless they're books, but that seems to be part of proper noble education these days ). Not to talk about her unflinching loyalty to the Divine. Those two points make her different from Lambert in that regard.

I think Mages would be a point of tension between them, Sure she served both this and the prior Divine but how much is she willing to take for that debt and belief? That would be an interesting issue, Just how far down the path would she follow Justinia? We will have to wait and see.

[Maria Caliban]

I see!

:/

You're having too much fun with this.

Going by what I understood of Asunder, I doubt it. Lambert was of the idea that all mages, left unsupervised, will turn evil. He's totally into the Templar new-school teaching that mages are not people, but evil creatures.  Cassandra never showed any sign of believing that.

 

Also, we are talking about someone who throw herself off a cliff saying that her survival depended on the will of a absentee deity. There might be a bit of, if a mage does something evil, it was the will of the Maker somewhere in her logic...

Well, in Dawn of the Seeker she seemed to have a grudge... Not that I can blame her.

Truly? Lambert was pro circle but then again, most templars are, and i'd assume so are most Seekers, safe assumption no? Thus the act of watching, containing and protecting the world from Magic would fall into his bailiwick no? He also said nothing to the effect of Mages not being people in Asunder, he considered them too stupid or selfish to control their abilities more oft then not, but that isn't denying them person-hood like some mages would tranquil.

 

That seems more like a personal perspective on the character then anything confirmed from the character, given that in DOTS and DA 2 both she showed both outright loathing and condemned blood magic and apostates. That view didn't change in TWO decades, As i said she may have been softened a bit by random orlaisian pretty boy mage a bit, but that belief endured. And I'd say if anything the circle rebellion made it stronger.

I wonder if we'll have people complaining that Cassandra is trying to convert them or too preachy like we did with Leliana or Sebastian.

Leliana tried to convert people?

 

She mentioned her God every other sentence but i don't recall her attempting to force it on the PC.

People aren't very good at distinguishing the two it seems.

 

At least as far as quasi-christian religions go.  No one seems to think Merrill is preachy, despite her telling the protagonist a few parables.

Far too many Freudian issues abound, I suppose.
