Still, more convinced Mr Mustache is a mage than I was a day ago.  Nice.  Not prepared to make the jump to assume he's Dorian, but the puzzle pieces are certainly looking interesting aren't they.  Also like the possible implications for the return of the battlemage/arcane warrior spec if so...

Because it's a staff. You don't stab things with a staff.

It's not a staff. It looks nothing like a Dragon Age staff. It's not ornate in any way and it's not wooden at all. It's a pike.

I don't really get why people think DHMG's clothes look like warrior garb. It just looks like draped cloth. Especially in the war room, I see literally zero metal on him. Is it because they think the white parts on his torso and shoulder are plating? If you look at the draping around his waist, it's clearly drawn with the same texture and color, but the lay of it couldn't be metal. It's all just draped cloth.

For the moment, everything is right in this pic :
 

 
i c this pic first one is still miss and the nr 7    (sounds so wierd when i say that) srry don't know how to put spoiler button on but if i have to guess with this picture we are missing Rhys if i need to pick a mage and a assunder char and cullen looking at the weapon choice    well either way i'm fine with both character have a interresting background story

...one post up. He's armored.

I don't think you can tell that from the blur on those photos. In the war room he's not armored. Well, that or pike guy and DHMG are different guys, but I think it's more likely the "shine" on some of his clothes in the concept art is just leather and blurred pixels.

He's lightly armored like the mage Champion armor in DA2.  And several Tevinter mages.  And Flemeth.  Bracers and greaves don't suddenly make a warrior.

You have the manly girl and the mage girl. All that's needed is a girly girl like Leliana.

 

Also, I hope there's a badass beard somewhere in the party. Beard's are a sign of awesome in the fantasy genre.

Because they never use metal staves in Dragon Age? Oh... wait... Also, I think it might be a bit presumptuous to declare that it isn't wood from a blurry streak of black.

Examples of mostly metal mage staves in the tag.

It bears mentioning that they only said an Asunder character would appear in Inquisition, not that they'd be a companion. Just to clarify.

Woudn't that be the archer girl?

In the war room art Cassandra and Cullen are also not armored. Cassandra has on some bracers and a shoulder pauldron, but no breastplate and Cullen only has a shoulder pauldron. Are they mages too?
Not to mention Solas has hair so how accurate can that art be?

It's one solid piece of one uniform color.

[Nocte ad Mortem]

I don't understand how Vivienne ISN'T the "girly girl". Dressing up in fancy clothes obsessively is like, the most emphasized personality point we know about her character.   

[Spectre Impersonator]

As long as she also likes shoes and small, cuddly animals.

It's a blurry piece of survey art. Even if it was metal it still wouldn't be entirely uniform in color. You can't tell what material it is. Ergo, I don't think anyone should be making assumptions about its construction. It looks a staff to me. Just one that is more martial in appearance, which is NOT out of place for the mage class. There are several staves in the previous games that look like halberds.

There are no class restriction on armor in DAI anyway and follower's core look doesn't necessarily follow the armor class either.

 

For example, some of Cassandra's looks are less armored than rogue armors in DA2, doesn't stop her from being the party tank in the PAX demo with that exact stuff on her back...

The fact that there's a little hook/handle where he has his hand certainly makes it looks like whatever that rod is, it is something you stab with.

I'm not going to get into the big argument that's going on here, but I agree, I don't think he's a mage either and I definitely don't think he's Dorian

Again, there have been staves with stabby bits on them before. Especially in Dragon Age 2 where Hawke or the other mages will switch to melee instead of casting spells during the auto-attack sequences. Just saying.

[The Elder King]

I'd laughing if after all those discussions Bioware would announce the character and show that they changed his class to rogue.

[Steppenwolf]

That's the hilt of a sword on his back.

Dorian may not even be in the game any more and Mustache Guy may not even be a companion at all.

Well, this is a completely different argument. The war room art isn't necessarily accurate. Some people specifically said the outfit looks like warrior garb instead of mage and I specifically replied to that. In the war room it doesn't look like armor, it's just draped cloth. That isn't undeniable evidence that he's a mage, but it definitely also doesn't provide any evidence of him being a warrior. 

[Ananka]

Oh, I didn't realize that was the sword. I blame it on the resolution.

No, I don't think there's a Dorian in the game any more. I feel pretty confident moustache guy will be a companion though.

[GVulture]

Maybe he is a mage using a sword/dagger in his off hand... =p

The second staff in the image below is entirely metal, possibly the first one as well not entirely sure, but there are entirely metal staves in the games

Spoiler

 

also this is a mages staff

Spoiler

 

and this is Aurelian Titus a magister from the Tevinter Imperium notice the full plate armour and he only has a sword, yet he is a mage

 

Spoiler

 

I am not entirely convinced DHMG is a companion but it is entirely plausible that he is a mage, and I would be inclined to say he is one

[Ananka]

So... I'll probably regret asking this, but the discussion here seems to be whether he's a warrior or mage. Why have you excluded rogue?
