Also, I really like the idea of Cullen helpfully pointing out really disturbing things in his role as advisor.

I think it would be funny if Cullen knew (and loved) all the creepy Fereldan folk tales. About swamp witches who married werewolves and fed their children to demons. It would be amusing, considering he's such a Chantry boy, and a templar, and then boom - he tells you some scary old Fereldan legend, and suddenly Morrigan nods in approval, because turns out her mother was involved, and she heard that tale too, just from a different PoV.

Here ya go, have a Cullen! Made by the talented Luiz Ferrarezzi!

He looks so awesome!

I'm actually very interested to see the relationship between Cullen and Morrigan.  On the surface, it does seem they would hate each other, but then all those reasons she couldn't stand Alistair (his naivety, his incompetence, the fact that he prefers to follow, all those things that make him seem like this weak/soft person) don't really apply to Cullen at all, despite them having this shared Templar background.

 

Disclaimer: i love Alistair.  A lot.

I dare say she'll have a dig at his Templar/Chantry background, but they could end up getting on. You can never tell with Morrigan!

[Galagraphia]

Morrigan probably changed too. We haven't seen her for 10 years, we don't know what she was doing. She maybe a completely different person now. Maybe she doesn't think teasing a templar is fun anymore Maybe she will be really interested in helping us with closing the holes in the Veil, and she will tolerate our team Chantry. She probably also improved her social skills. And if she had a kid, she probably changed even more, because parenting does that to people.

On the other hand, she's the epitome of who he's spent his life hunting. The powerful apostate off in the wilderness using unsanctioned magic for non-Chantry-approved purposes. Although she's also clearly been able to control it, in terms of avoiding demon possession. I keep wondering how he'll deal with mages like her now that there are no Circles and he may no longer even be a templar. I wonder if she could help nudge  his opinion about "controlling" mages in a Circle, showing him that the Circle may not be the only answer. Or if he'll never be able to get  past her being a lifelong apostate.

I do hope she's changed. I wonder if she's still as opportunistic as ever? I made the mistake of bringing her into the deep roads and when we got to the anvil she was like:

 

"Hey! Hey, we should totally use this on people, it sounds powerful."

 

"So you're volunteering to be the first subject?"

 

"NO!!"

 

"Then shut your face, Morrigan. Geez ..."

 

If she's still sporting that attitude, I'm sure they'll be at odds.

Have they confirmed the background of a mage protagonist? I mean, a Qunari mage isn't going to have been part of the circle and I don't think they'd make two different background options for mages, so maybe we were apostates like Bethany/Hawke? Thus covering human, elf and qunari mage options.

It would be interesting to see how he reasts to such things. There were also a Mage Hawke, who never joined the Circle, or Bethany, who could join the Circle, and show everyone how competent an apostate can be. And there may be a mage!Inquisitor, who can be an apostate. It will be interesting if seeing mages being badass and relativly normal outside of the Circle will give Cullen some interesting ideas. Like opening Hogwarts, lol. He would be a defence against the dark arts professor. For one year. 

 

Some cute Cullen kiss for the top:

You know, I can see Morrigan actually respecting Cullen, maybe not agreeing with everything. But she's the type to respect head strong confident people. Pretty sure that's how Cullen is now.

I'm curious on this as well. Given how the Qunari treated their mages in DAII (sewing their lips shut? Really??) I really can't see a Qunari mage attending the summit in an official capacity. Most likely you start off the game as a captured apostate and were cooling your heels in a dungeon cell when the Breach occurred.

That would be pretty cool, or we stumbled into the peace gathering/ran and hid in there because we were being chased by a group of rebel templars or something?

[LolaLei]

I guess it could be that as a mage we were they with the head of the mage rebellion or something? If you're in support of mage freedom then you'd try to talk the leader out of agreeing to anything the Chantry has to offer, and if you support the circle system then you could encourage her/him to listen to what the Chantry has to say... not that it would matter either way, since everyone dies in the blast but at least you'd be able to state opinion on the peace gathering.

I think that qunari inquisitor is comfirmed as being Vashoth, meaning that he/she has grown outside of the Qun. So no control rods and sewn lips ^^

[Brian ofthe Dialogue Wheel]

Just so you know... they've actually said that the Inquisitor will not be related to the Amells this time around. 

Dangit. When was this/ who confirmed?

[thegoldfinch]

Since leadership seems to be such a huge theme, I'm anticipating (read: desperately hoping) all of our starting characters will be at least important within their own social strata. For example, if you're Dalish you could be a Keeper as a mage or a warleader as a rogue or warrior. You would attend the peace talks to speak on behalf of the elves.

 

Starting out as a nobody and ascending to hero status worked great in DA:O and DA2. But for this story, I have a very hard time imaging an awkward runt leading (or being taken seriously by) a group of people who have such strong personalities and important roles in society.

 

Besides, I'm personally ready for something a little different now.

[Galagraphia]

I would prefer if our "hero" had nothing to do with the whole Chantry-Mages business. Maybe we were just traveling, got into some trouble, and found refuge in Haven (I guess the dragon cult had been driven out by the templars by now). And one morning we wake up, and our host says, hey, there's some big stuff happening up there in the temple, we are going to bring them food, you will have to come with us, because I will lock the house. Here, carry the bread (because you owe me, time to do something useful in return). So we go up there with our new friends, and maybe we meet a pack of wolves, and having a tutorial battle, or something like that. And then we arrive to the temple, and can talk to some of the mages and priests, and then everything explodes, everybody dies, we are marked, Cassandra says "bullshit", and so our watch begins 

[VampOrchid]

I'm wondering something. I keep checking out the table pic. And to me, it looks like the Human Warriors are built bigger then the Human Mages. Look at the comparison between BW, Cullen and Dorian for example. So I'm wondering, if characters body size and shape will change depending on the class as well as race. To me, that would be freaken cool, and I have to admit, it would make sense. Kind of hard to be a limber Rogue if you're beefed up lol

[VampOrchid]

Oh a little off topic news. But my surgery date to have our son has been moved up by a day instead of the 11th of July it will now be on the 10th! Once I'm recovered and hopefully feeling better, I'm looking forward to getting some art done and possibly opening my online store. Woop!

Good thing, too -- the 'lips sewn shut' thing would have made the kissing scenes a bit awkward.

Inquisitor: "Moo-mooo-mooo-moooeee!"

Cullen: Pardon?

Inquisitor: *grabs his shirt* MOOO-MOOO-MOOO-MEEE?

Cullen: *terrified* I... I didn't do it. Whatever it was! Can you please put me down?

Iron Bull: She asked, "Do you love me?" (lmao, humans)

Cullen: Ah.. err... I admire you, ma'am. You are.. um... very competent and... Can we stay friends?

Inquisitor: *friendzoned* 

Iron Bull: Well, you broke her heart. Congratulations!

Cullen: Oh, I didn't mean to. I apologize, ma'am. Can something be done about those stitches? I think they make your... accent... worse.

I can already hear Morrigan dryly saying "Oh wonderful... another Templar. At least this one seems to be smarter than a box of rocks."

 

I think she's going to be an exception to the rule as far as mages go. On one hand, yes, life-long apostate. But... she ran with the Hero of Ferelden. There will probably be brownie points for that. And she seems to have infiltrated the Orlisian court, no? BUT ... she's Flemeth's daughter. Ya know, now that I type it all out I have no idea where Cullen's going to stand with her! 

 

I'm also thinking that after the Kirkwall Incident, he's not necessarily going to get behind the Circle idea any more. After all, in that instance it gave the "bad" mages an opportunity to unite into a bigger problem. One rogue mage can be a pain in the butt. 20 together with deadly intentions is catastrophic.

[Fialka]

Hmmm... I wonder if they'll handle things a bit like Shepard in Mass Effect?  Where you're already a respected/known figure, but events at the game's beginning push you into an even more important role.  I would hope they come up with something more original, but it did work well in ME.  Actually that game does offer a pretty good example of how you can choose a past to some extent, though it'd be nice of we could do it through dialogue instead of choosing from a list.
