He made it clear he did not enjoy hunting mages, so being forced into it makes sense.
He had a lot of sympathy for the mages and felt they were treated unfairly. Maybe it was just the desire to keep magic in check, that it also meant keeping mages in check was an unfortunate addition. I think it was a choice he would have made himself. He always struck me as the kind that wants to 'make the world a better place'.
I'm sure it will because the eluvians and such will come into play in DAI, it's just...the Zevran romancers were slated quite a bit.
If you romanced him as a guy at the end of DAO the epologue slide calls them "the woman he loves"
If you romanced him and he shows up in DA2, he's supposed to reject Hawke's and Isabela's offer for sex because "his warden would be a tad put out".
And...the butter face. It's not horrible, but...holy hell.
You forgot the fact that his "good-bye" scene in Denerim is bugged so that he has the friendship conversation instead of the romance conversation.
And his letter in DAA glitches.
It's tough being a Zevran-mancer, it truly is.
But maybe he felt being in the circle meant he could do a lot for the mages, make their lives a little bit easier. In the beginning at least.
Well, Alistair was given to the Chantry and saw the wardens as an escape, so it could be that Cullen felt the same. But I like the idea of him joining to make a difference.
I have a thought: even without demons and Meredith and red lyrium, Cullen was never temperamentally suited to be a templar. Or at least, not one assigned to a Circle. I've been playing around with the Magi origin and it's just now dawning on me what a political place the Circle is. Irving doesn't really want to Tranquil Jowan, but what he really cares about is seeing the Chantry also suffer. Leolach (sp) wants to be seen as competent more than anything. Lots of jockeying for power, between mages and Chantry and among the various fraternities. I get the impression from marketing info that Cullen has little patience for that sort of thing. He might have been happier as a common soldier or Gray Warden.
From my point of view Cullen is someone who wants to protect people. At least this is how I picture him as a young and naive Templar. So, I think that he is very well suited for the job. It's true that there was a lot of political powerplay going in the Ferelden Circle but Cullen wasn't really affected by it. Maybe if he had been promoted at one point...
In Kirkwall he had probably more contact with politics and I believe that he grew into it. I can't imagine that he would be a military advisor if he had no sense for politics at all. I even believe that he could be quite good at it. Cullen isn't Alistair after all who never wanted to be a political figure and always prefered a life on the road. And even Alistair grew with his tasks.
There must be a reason in the past of Cullen. I'm very curious about it.Perhaps he had no choice.
I hope we find out more about his backstory in DAI. I'm very curious about the reason why or how he joined the Templars, too.
*daily roll in*
I just wanted to say that even though Zevran is not appearing that he still matters. I love those sorts of little details. Makes me feel special in a 'hey I know that character and they're still important to me!' way. As excited as I am for the new companions I have still have a soft spot for all my old favs. x3
Also, I love Cole's VO's voice. Can't wait to hear some of the lines!

Funny that's how Cullen was to me at first. Didn't know him from the mage origin and only knew him as that guy that was trapped in the tower, only pieced it together when I saw him in 2. the fact that I knew he came from Origins was why I kept pestering him throughout DA2, because he was from the place I knew, and everything else was strange.
Cole and Rhys

Wha? Why would you do this to us? 
I am really afraid that we meet Cole because Rhys was at the thing.

I know. *hug* Let's hope I'm wrong.
OOh! I have a question! So you know how in DAO you could have a chat with a companion whenever you want? And then you couldn't do this in DA2 unless you were in their home (if they have something to say)....If I remember correctly. ANYWAY, how do you think this will be handled in DAI? Will we choose when to talk to companions/advisors whenever we want? Like even during adventuring? (e.g. hitting on Alistair while covered in blood in the deep roads)
I think they said it's whenever we want but only in certain areas (camps, keeps, etc.).OOh! I have a question! So you know how in DAO you could have a chat with a companion whenever you want?

They said that conversations only happened in safe-zones. Specifically, that there would be no conversations happening while standing in a field of dead bodies with you both covered in the blood of your enemies.

Too bad... some of my favorite moments were just popping a squat to have a light chat while standing on the bloody and tainted remains of the broodmother and her spawn. What could be more romantic!

Which is kind of nice. I loved being able to talk all the time to my companions, but I did get annoyed a bit if I got in a hurry.

Alistair: Something you need, m'dear?
Me: #$%@$! Yes. I need you to get the eff out of the way so I can loot that emissary.
Zeveran is not appearing in the game?
Zeveran is not appearing in the game?
No. But he is apparently going to be referenced, and his romantic status with the warden (if it applies to you) will matter.
Did he die or something?
No. I imagine Zevran isn't making a physical appearance because the American male Inquisitor is voiced by his VA. And because we don't need all the cameos?
Did he die or something?
There was some confusion--his VO said he'd been killed off, but I think there was some mixed messages. The VO won't be returning as Zevran because he's the American Inquisitor. Thus, no Zevran. Thus, belief Zevran is dead. This isn't the case, so, I am appeased. (I legit almost cried when I thought Zevran had been killed off screen. He's my guy.)
