Whatwhat? Patrick wrote Cole? Does that mean that the person Gaider rewrote is Cullen?

 

I always assumed the person Gaider rewrote was Cullen but I could swear Gaider said he wrote 2 companions

Probably not now. I'm thinking it could have been Solas he rewrote, considering he was the total unknown from after the survey. Then again, Gaider's COULD be writing Dorian, and then he'd only have 2 characters since Dorian's likely a LI. Even more so, since I think Dorian has a good chance of being gay, it could be the character Gaider's been 'itching' to write since he started Bioware was a gay companion.

I think he wrote Cassandra, too. I was sure he would be the one to write Cole.

DORIAN!!!! I'M BETTING HE WROTE DORIAN!!!!!!

[Potato Cat]

I'm amused that Sera wont even talk to him. lol.
 
 
Ya'll realize we're all royally fucked if Gaider wrote Cullen.

It really shocked me there. Makes me think we will get along better than I thought. So, her bestie status is restored!

And I want Gaider to write Cullen. But this news makes me think he won't!

He did, but Cullen isn't a companion lol so I assumed he wrote Cass, Cullen +1 -only he also said he wrote 2 LI's so if there is a +1 they presumably wouldn't be an LI. Or he fudged the truth a bit

Nah. I trust his writing completely. I mean, yeah, our emotions are SCREWED, but the story will be awesome.

 [DRAGON AGE]: When we last spoke, we talked about the Iron Bull, but you're also the writer for Cole. What can you tell us about him?

[PATRICK WEEKES]: Imagine going through this world knowing that you're different, but not knowing how. Imagine trying to find out the truth about what you are—a mage? A demon?—and never being sure that you can trust the answer, or that your friends will still support you when the truth, whatever it is, comes out.

[DA]: The proverbial being stuck between a rock and a hard place.

[PW]: Exactly. That was Cole's character arc in the wonderful Dragon Age: Asunder, by our lead writer, David Gaider… and now that character arc is done. In this game, we find out what happens next.

[DA]: So, you're taking over a character originally penned by David Gaider. No pressure, obviously.

[PW]: Indeed. Dave is great at creating sympathetic characters, and I loved Cole's arc in the novel. I was guessing at his true nature until the climax of the book. But I couldn't just tell that story again. The character has to grow, for one thing… and also, that arc was tied to Cole not knowing what he is. Once Seeker Lambert whips out the Litany of Adralla, that pretty much narrows Cole down to blood mage or demon, and since he wasn't using blood magic…

[DA]: So, Cole is definitely a demon?

[PW]: Welllllllll… he's definitely somewhere on the Demon-or-Spirit Spectrum of Fade Creatures (which I really hope exists somewhere). A lot of people will always see him as a demon. He would rather be a spirit. He's trying.

[DA]: It sounds like Cole suffers from a very complicated existence.

[PW]: Now that he has accepted his nature, he's less constrained by human limitations. He can sense people's pain, which is actually what he was doing back in Asunder without realizing it, when he found the mages who were terrified and desperate enough to be able to see him. He can find people who are hurting, people in need, and he can help them.

[DA]: Clearly, there is no foreseeable way that could go wrong.

[PW]: Cole remains a work in progress, yes. Anyone who allows him to join the Inquisition (and because there are people whose response to him in Asunder was, "Demon? LOL NOPE," allowing him to join is optional) is going to hear about some weird things happening, with no one quite sure who put all those turnips in the fireplace or why the battlements are covered with loaves of bread.

[DA]: You mentioned that the player can choose not to have Cole join the Inquisition. Are the other followers going to have an opinion?

[PW]: Oh, Maker, yes. Vivienne thinks Cole should be safely banished, and Sera refuses to talk to "it" entirely.

[DA]: As does the Iron Bull, presumably. You said during a previous interview that he had athing about demons.

[PW]: See, Bull is funny. He does hate demons, but if you're on the team, you're on the team. In Bull's mind, Cole is a weird squirrelly kid who just needs a night of good drinks and bad women to get him sorted out.

[DA]: Well, since you wrote Cole, tell us why you think he would make a great follower.

[PW]: If you want someone who can move around the battlefield undetected, sinking daggers into enemies who never see him coming, Cole is your guy. He can still make people forget him, but he's no longer the scared young man who couldn't stand against Seeker Lambert inAsunder. He knows he's more than human, and he is absolutely deadly when faced with foes who want to hurt innocent people (which safely applies to most of the Inquisition's enemies).

[DA]: Useful!

[PW]: Beyond his skill in combat, though… Cole wants to help people who are hurting. He may not always get it right, but he never stops caring. He will walk into the most painful moment of someone's life and offer them comfort without hesitation or judgment. And then he will disappear from their mind and walk away, because it's not about getting thanked, or even remembered. It's about helping.

[DA]: That's very touching.

[PW]: That's how Cole has grown since the events of Asunder. That's where he's going now. I hope people like where it takes him.

 

Patrick wrote him!

 

 

 

HOW AM SUPPOSED TO EVER NOT RECRUIT HIM OH MY GOD HE IS A PRECIOUS SPIRIT/DEMON KITTEN

My powers worked yet again! Yay tacos! 

Oh, Maker, yes. Vivienne thinks Cole should be safely banished, and Sera refuses to talk to "it" entirely.

 

 

lol

[LolaLei]

He puts turnips in the fireplace?? I like this kid already! I'm gonna take him with me to Celene's party!

[Jynxed_]

I have a bad feeling that I'm definitely going to need the walkthrough, otherwise half of the companions will abandon me for bad choices  

 

Also Cole hurts my heart. A lot. If there's no hug option I'm gonna cry.

[Potato Cat]

ALSO,
 
WHAT THE F*CK , SERA!??!

I'm afraid I agree with her. I don't trust him at all. He's from the Fade.

[littlenikki]

Ohhh, Cole sounds like such a sweetheart. It's gonna hurt to see Viv and Sera treating him badly, if they remember him at all that is. And it seems like he can make people forget him at will now? That's pretty useful!

[Hellion Rex]

I'm afraid I agree with her. I don't trust him at all. He's from the Fade.

As long as he stays on the straight and narrow, I'm totally fine with Cole.

[Galagraphia]

I think Sera and Vivienne will get no annual bonus from my Quizzy For not contributing to the team spirit. I have a feeling Bull will get it all. He's a sweetie. }:-3

[Hellion Rex]

I swear to God, if any of the companions start seriously hating on Cole, I hope I get a dialogue option to shout them down. I hated it in DA2 when both Fenris and Anders were so goddamn cruel to Merrill.

[Hellion Rex]

Yeah, that part about IB totally knocked me off guard.

[CuriousArtemis]

I'm surprised you liked the Inbetweeners. It's so different to what I'd expect from you! Haha. Also, the Inbetweeners coined my least favourite word by far. (Jay's name for the front bottom)

Why not? It's clever, adorable, and wonderfully acted. Love those cute boys! And yes, Jay, and YES that word!!! Rhymes with binge, right? I learned lots of dirty English words from dear Jay lol (my favorite character actually)

[Jynxed_]

Cole will be my DA2 Anders, meaning he could do anything and I'm still like "give me huggsies." I hope him and Cullen get along or theres gonna be some serious issues.

[littlenikki]

Cole will be my DA2 Anders, meaning he could blow up a chantry and start a war and I'm still like give me huggsies. I hope him and Cullen get along or theres gonna be some serious issues.

 

Do you think he will be afraid of Cullen? Templars were pretty effing terrifying to him in Asunder
