hehehe... I feel you. Oh! IDEA! He saves a freshly orphaned little kid and brings him or her back to the Keep but the little tyke is beside her/himself with grief and fear. Cullen, noting that the kid had been mumbling a Chantry tune and recognizing it, starts to sing it really quietly for the child to calm them. It works and the youngster tells him that his mom used to sing it.

 

"Oh Maker!" (It had to be done XD) 

 

This image touches me right in the feels  :wub: there's definitely going to be a fanfiction of this somewhere haha  :D

Question: if Cullen is a companion, how should he be differentiated from Cassandra in personality and story arc?

There is, I suppose, one starting point: Cassandra's backstory involved seeing good things from both sides, while Cullen has, for the most part, only seen bad things.

I could also see him doing this to his own kids. Inquisitor comes back from a mission, walks down the hall and starts hearing some singing. Then sneaks up to their child's bedroom to find Cullen softly singing them to sleep. ^//^ #agirlcandream #commonyouknowyouwantthistohappen

I don't deny that Greg has an amazing voice or that Cullen singing is possible... Maybe it's just me... but I don't find the idea of him singing in character. It's just not believable to me. Maybe if he knew some hymns or something he found comforting that he sort of mumbles to himself when he knows he's alone - but I'd be more inclined to think he'd stick to prayers and litanies than songs. I just can't see Cullen singing without some serious arm twisting - like the Divine orders him to as part of a ruse of some kind or something. I dunno... Just not seeing it. But who knows? Maybe it's his hidden talent that he shares with the Inquisitor when he feels comfortable enough? :)

Mmm... on the other hand, I could totally see him singing the Chant...

Man, I'd love a scene where Cullen sang. Softly, preferably, and just to the Inquisitor. A Chantry hymn would be beautiful, I think. Just a moment of a simple, personal pleasure when the world is going to hell. <3

For their companion arc (if we still have those little quests/arc) I would like to see Cass deal more with her family perhaps in relation to her personal faith and choice to be a Seeker. As for Cullen, I would like to see him deal with the demons that have undoubtedly been bottling up inside. This is assuming, of course, that Cullen is a companion, which I do not believe anymore.

Why not? I still firmly believe that he's a companion.

I'd kill to hear this. Maybe not even as a romance kind of thing, but maybe a song that Cullen normally just sings in his head during battle!

Isn't it funny when you realize how little we know about him? It's so exciting, knowing we're going to eventually know him as well as Alistair, Fenris, Isabela, and the rest!

The 3/3/3 class split. I think he's just a non-companion romance. And to be honest, don't stone me, I'd rather it that way, cause I still want to have the GW as a party member, and he is most definitely of the warrior class.

I don't know if it's actively sung in all the chantries. But the codexes talk about how the Maker will only come back once the Chant is sung in all the corners of the world, so presumably at least at some point it was sun. I think it's called the Chant because  Andraste sang to the Maker to gain his goodwill/notice.

3/3/3 hasn't precisely been confirmed. Just that there is an "even split", and that could mean a variety of things. Also, NPC romances have also not been confirmed either. Neither have "advisors". Therefore, I still have much hope in the matter. :)

Possibly, Cass is pro-Chantry while Cullen is pro-Templar, and the two stances are no longer one in the same. There was a split, and just because Cullen (probably) isn't a Red Templar doesn't mean he disagrees with splitting off and becoming independent.

Apologies for brevity, am on cell.

Oh man, I think even I'd go soft on that one and I generally don't like kids in games... except Clem, cos she's a badass!

 

haha! Yeah, I don't usually go for kids in games but a brief moment like that wouldn't hurt. Another Connor though... <_<  Well, to be fair he was possessed so... :unsure:

 

A bit off topic but: Just taking a break from watching Supernatural and couldn't help but think that Cullen would have a holiday hunting demons in that show. xD 

 

#sorrynotsorry #samanddeanwinchester #familybusiness 

 

Oh I think Cullen would have a blast! After he got past how he wound up in the 21st century! (angels) Or how Sam & Dean wound up in his time. (Angels) But he'd probably have a good ole time! And the demons....

 

Crowley: "Oh great. You drag me here and the esteemed leader of hunters here can't be possessed. Lovely."

Dean: "Thought you'd like that."

 

 

I...I... I'm out of LIKES???

Ironically, it would be nice to walk into a Chantry while it was in session. Perhaps hear them either praying or singing would be nice. :3

Tbh, I'm not sure. I think that's probably the reason why it's unlikely that Cullen would be a companion.

I guess he's got the added difference of having met (and in some cases known) the Warden and Hawke personally, which is at least a tiny difference in their general story, and like you said there's the bad side of things that he's experienced which differs slightly to Cassandra's story. That aside, at present I don't think there is much. I can only presume that perhaps his writer gave him a drastically different pre-DAO past and/or had something crazy/notable happen to him between DA2 and DAI to ensure that both character's personality/story arc is uniquely different from each other.

... Unless they want them to be alike, so that they "bond" and romance each other if the Inquisitor doesn't snap either of them up?

"In the Grand Cathedral, the Chant of Light is sung in full, a process which takes a full two weeks to complete." So I think it is accurate to say it is sung, but only do they constantly sing it in full at Val Royeaux.

Which would make me likely to declare him an enemy on sight. How would you propose that he earn my trust?

Some things make me tempted to romance Cassandra, but Sera still just seems more likely.
