My reason to like him would just be simply because he comes across as incredibly human in his actions and emotions. I find his views understandable, even if I don't necessarily 100% agree with him. I get where he's coming from. That said, I'm not above calling him an ass. 

 

At the same time, there's a lot none of us know or understand about him, so he also has my curiosity. The potential is there.

 

I'll also take this moment to express my love for the selfish ability to (mostly) keep characters alive in BW games because I just read SnK 58 spoilers and feel so

This thread is turning into an episode of a tween Disney show gone very bad. "A party? For me? *puts down murder knife, smiling* Awww, I had no clue!"

I totally just saw "That's so Raven" inquisitor standing over the dead body of Sera and everyone jumping out
"Surpri-......... Ohh that's not ok."
Raven inquisitor "SNAP!"


Because her Seeing the future powers always sucked.

Hey I just met you/

and this is crazy/

here's my number/

Cullen Maybe?

I would Cullen the Cullen out of Cullen!   <- this smiley should be renamed into "ENCHANTMENT!"

So, I'm growing to love all the Cullen hate I see. It's so ridiculously pointless, like Cullen is out there in his shiny armor, on a white horse, looking pretty, and it just drives people mad. Like Cullen is trollin' the trolls with his existence more than the trolls could ever troll us. It's amusing! 

Happy dance gif:

Disturbing gif but an awesome point, Gala.

[CENIC]

If the trolls get under your skin, they've won.

 

Just remember... everything is Cullen and nothing hurts.

Oh Gala, that's just perfect! Trolling the trolls merely through existing. I didn't think I could like Cullen anymore, but somehow it's in me to do so

there we go now that is some cuteness right there. Maybe I will talk Cullen into letting me own a Mabari

[Galagraphia]

 

...

Maybe I will talk Cullen into letting me own a Mabari

I think Cullen will be really happy himself to have a mabari! He's a Fereldan guy after all, Fereldans love their dogs! I bet they don't allow templars to have pets too, because with job like theirs you have no time for pets. I do have a headcanon, that in some places templars have kennels (because dogs are great for tracking apostates), maybe in the monastery where they train the recruits, or maybe in some wealthy places like Redcliffe, just not in Kinloch Hold, because it's a pretty small island. So Cullen must have had a very puppy-less life. This must be fixed! And I can't imagine a Dragon Age game without a loyal mabari. I hope we can have a dog, and summon it like in DAII, and our "heroes" will chat with it sometimes. And I also want my dog to be a girl this time, but it's optional. I will love my mabari regardless.

To be honest I liked him in DAO because his reactions and behaviour felt real,I think many shy young people could relate to him at some point,despite his small role.

But I must admit that it was in DA2 when I began to appreciate him as a character,mainly due to how he evolves from the shy tortured recruit to the now confident and reasonable knight-captain.

 

I so agree with all of this! There is so much hate for him that I do not understand. In DAO, yeah he wants to annul the circle but look at the situation he just came out of. Obviously by the time he gets to Kirkwall he has gotten past some of his PTSD so he is once again able to function as a reasonable templar (even if he is more weary of mages), but he would never turn a mage tranquil just because of what they COULD become.

 

He genuinely believes in the good the circle can do for mages (my opinion on the circle is that it needs to exist but more like a boarding school where mages that have non-mage parents can go to learn how to control their powers, and their families can come and go as they please etc etc).

 

He is just a genuinely good person and I admire that after everything he has been through, it also helps he is easy on the eyes

lol ... so I made my possible second inquisitor using the doll-maker, and man, he looks like a raving nutter Now he looks young cause that's how the doll-maker rolls, but I see him as being in his mid-20s. 

 

Anyway, I just think the hat makes it

Disturbing gif but an awesome point, Gala.

I've made an even more disturbing gif:

 

I've been waiting all week to let it out!

(imagine John Partridge singing it)

"Our Knight-Captain Cullen is a curious man.

His lyrium ways are a matter of habbit.

He will let you go today, after fighting Meredith,

But he'll be back tomorrow to chase you like a rabbit.

He'll help you take the castles, but will ignore your flirt,

'Cause he only likes what he cannot have!

So throw into his face your underpants,

And he will teleport to Anderfels!

 

So Knight-Captain Cullen is a beautiful man.

And there isn't any need for us to shout it.

For he will do as he do do

And there's no doing anything about it!"

Edited because I has temper.

[CuriousArtemis]

I wonder if they'll reveal anything about Cullen during E3 even though he's not a follower. 

[ilikesocks]

I was so mad I didn't SE the "report " button. Good grief...

[JediBeagle]

Oh my! This thread is moving super fast! I had my birthday yesterday so I couldn't be online much. Any news about our favorite templar? Can't wait for the Greg Ellis video!

 

 

She's no older than Lysa Tully was when she was married to Jon Arryn, who was something like Maester Pycell's age. Just typing that makes me feel dirty. Seriously, GRRM, wtf?

Some OT stuff here:

 

Spoiler

I believe Martin has said that he uses history as a base for his books and unfortunately actual history is often worse than his fiction.

One example is Margaret Beaufort, Countess of Richmond and Derby who was the grandmother of Henry VII. She was married at the age of 12 and gave birth to her only child at 13. It is believed that having a child at such a young age might have ruined her body (she is noted to have had a difficult time giving birth because she was so young and small) as she never had any more children Her husband was 24 when they married. I seem to recall there being a rush for them to have children to continue the royal line or something. It does seem really sad and wrong to us and I have a feeling that even then a girl having to have a child so young wasn't really considered normal or right.

 

But it goes to show that Martin is not just making up this stuff. It really did happen. Now if he should be writing this kind of stuff at this time and age is another question entirely. I suppose it works for him and his plots in his medieval fantasy setting but you are right. It is creepy :S

Wow, Happy belated birthday!!!! *throws confetti*

 

Not much has happened, except Sera and Iron Bull were officially released to the world (check the DA Twitter or FB). Greg Ellis was in the studio a couple days ago and shot a video with Jessica Merizan, but we don't know when it will be released.

 

Are you talking about George R. R. Martin? Yes, marriages between children or between adults and children happened all the time "back then" ... and, actually, continue to happen today in countries like Yemen, where girls are sold to men "in marriage" at the tender ages of 9, 10, 11, and so on.

 

I think the producers were right to age a character like Sansa because it would be too much for us to watch a child in this situation (not that a 14 year old isn't a child, but you know what I mean). That said, it's troubling to know that what makes us so squeamish on the telly is actually happening to innocent children around the world in real time.

[ilikesocks]

Someone post a Cullen. LOL. Please. *needs distraction*

Yeah, I just rewatched the first episode of GoT season 1 with a friend who hadn't seen the show and they were appalled by how young everyone was. And they've aged all the actors up quite a bit.

 

As far as the current situation in real life goes it is sad in the lack of a better word. And yes it's very twisted to think that in the same world people can be sitting at home watching a tv show like GoT and going "That's horrible! But it's only fantasy." not knowing (sometimes not even caring) that worse is happening somewhere right now.

 

Making Sansa older was very much a good choise. All thought after the latest episode it left me wondering where her character is going.

 

 

And on a lighter note to stay on topic: has it been confirmed that companions/ advisors can use mounts too?

ilikesocks: Have a disco Cullen On the house!

[Jean]

Nope, we still don't know if we'll have teleporting companions or if they'll just run really, really fast.

[LolaLei]

Damn, no Greg Ellis video. Tbh, I figured it would be too soon for them to edit and get it posted up what with E3 and demo prepping etc. No matter, they'll probably show us two more companions this weekend on Twitter and then Monday we'll be ready for the big one!

Nopers. I sure hope followers can use mounts... I hate the Skyrim way of doing things! And in Skyrim you only have one companion. How frigging hard would that have been, Skyrim devs?! It took modders only a few days to make a proper mod. 

 

Regarding Sansa...

Spoiler

I agree, and yeah, I wonder what she's thinking now, with that crazy goth look of hers?! lol Personally, I think she is going to try to control Robin, but prevailing consensus seems to be that she is going to try to play "the game" and woo Littlerfinger.

[JediBeagle]

Lol I would love to see Cullen sprint around like Anderson did in ME3

It's weird, not counting Solas, there's still Cole, Dorian, and Beardy to "officially" reveal... will they double up? Or maybe announce the final one on Monday? Or maybe simply continue releasing companion info throughout the week?

 

Man, clearly they intend to talk about the companions in detail at E3. And the advisers, too, I hope?

 

Yeah I don't see that video popping up for a month at least... if ever.
