Well, Blackwall being an LI would make lots of people happy, but it wouldn't please me. And Solas was not even in that survey, so his chances would be nil.

I actually think the theory was wrong, because it looks like Iron Bull is being hinted as an LI--and in fact one of the devs had sort of danced around that issue in the past, with some vague playful suggestion/humor about it. Blackwall will be a wallflower, like Solas, it seems. And that's sad, too, because even though he's not my cup of tea, lots of people think he's one hot dude.

I surely hope IB is a romance option. I do like Black wall as well and if rumours are true and Solas is Felassan..
I win/win/win
I can't wait to play DAI!

All right, you know, I was just thinking about it, and there's one male LI we don't actually have for sure confirmed, even though pretty much everyone assumes he will be one:

 

Dorian.

 

He's cute.  He's undoubtedly going to be a charmer.  But no one's outright stated he's an LI, except for the fans, and we tend to think he's gay because if Iron Bull is an option he appears to be bi, and Cullen is probably straight.

 

So the final LI LOOKS like it could/should be Dorian, but it could just as easily still be Blackwall, or Solas.

 

And much as I want Solas to be an option, he wouldn't be available to my lady Inquisitor if he turned out to be the gay option, so I wouldn't be romancing him for a good long while if ever.  And beyond the personal aspect, well, if Solas is a romance and Dorian isn't, I don't want to be anywhere within a 100 mile radius of the fallout of that.  I can just imagine all the haters piling into the Solas thread, which is mostly a very positive friendly space, and ruining the peace there.  People would definitely be unhappy about it, is what I'm saying, especially since so many people expect Dorian to be an option, either gay or bisexual.

Well, if Mike Laidlaw only meant 'more than previous DA games' we're back at six. But it seems like Iron Bull might be one of them! And we know Sera is gay!

 

Straight: Cullen

Bi: Iron Bull

Gay: Dorian

 

... that doesn't actually seem very likely to me.

 

Straight: Scribbles

Bi: Cassandra

Gay: Sera (finally, some actual information about LI availability.)

 

This seems a lot more plausible. Or Scribbles could be the bi option and Cassandra the straight one.

Maybe Iron Bull will be a one night stand which would still leave 6 slots for other characters to be love interests. :>

You don't want Iron Bull to fill a slot? I'm sure he could pack right in there.

Could be--he definitely seems a more casual sort.  Or he could just be a friend with benefits, and you could actually romance someone else even while sleeping with Bull from time to time.

 

If that is the case, then Solas would be more likely to fill the bisexual slot than Blackwall, and Dorian and Blackwall would be vying for the gay slot, with Dorian the more likely occupant.  I know a lot of people hate him because he's bald and has poor fashion sense, but Solas's face actually is pretty appealing and his design was pretty clearly meant to show off his physique.  That usually isn't something a game artist does by accident, you are meant to notice it, even if he's not available.  Which begs the question of why we should be noticing Solas's behind if he's not an option...

Yeah, that seems possible. I actually would not mind that.

 

So maybe Solas is the bi male? Or Cullen is and Solas is the straight one. Or ,,, I just wish I knew how many options we were trying to guess here!

As expected, Sera is not heterosexual

So, my predictions:

 

Straight - Cassandra, Cullen

Bi - Scribbles/or/Vivienne, IB/or/Blackwall

Gay - Sera, Dorian

I don't they would make the NPC option as the straight one. It's likely Cullen will be bi and one of the companion like Solas will be straight since he's a companion, there would be more screentime with him.

I know Cullen is actually pretty popular with both gay/bi men and straight women, whereas, while Solas has some gay followers, his fans seem to be mostly women (though even then there aren't many of us).  And yet I think Cullen's going to wind up being straight.  I am not sure why I think this, I just do.  Maybe it's because I hope for Solas to be bisexual so both men and women can enjoy him, BUT, given that both groups more universally enjoy Cullen I suppose maybe I should hope Cullen is bisexual instead?

 

I still think Iron Bull is an official romance, though.  I won't get my hopes up for anything else.

Well... assuming that Iron Bull is a fling and not a romance, or that he's a friend with benefits and you can still pursue someone else, or even have a threesome with Bull and whoever else...

 

Solas has stricken me as the more likely bisexual option all along.  But now that Sera is confirmed as a lesbian, I'm not sure.  He might be unavailable, they might make him straight so that people stop speculating that all elves are bisexual, or... he might be bisexual because it doesn't seem fair for BOTH elven LIs to be female-exclusive.

I dunno. Maybe Bull isn't a romance- maybe the thing about him getting in bed with anyone was completely unrelated.

 

Still, I hope he's an option, at least.

 

Yeah, it's entirely possible that you can sleep with him but not romance him. Who knows!

and if rumours are true and Solas is Felassan..

 

Jesus Christ people stop daydreaming about companions being old NPCs/novel characters.

 

First Blackwall is Stroud, then Scribbles is Isabella then Sera is Briala and now Solas is Felassen ? seriously ?

So I'll clear this one straight away NO Solas is not Felassen, Felassen had vallaslin and Solas don't, the end.

it's unlikely that Solas is Felasan.  Felassan's vallaslin, however, may have been magical in nature and didn't look like that of any of the Dalish Briala met.  It was implied that Felassan was an ancient elf, but never outright stated.

 

There is a chance that, although I do not believe Solas is Felassan, he might be an ancient elf as well.  It's unlikely, but the possibility exists.

 

I wouldn't go shooting down every possible theory.  Sometimes the wild theories on this board turn out to be correct.

I'm not shooting every theory, just the wish-fulling ones that go out of their way to link every damn character with others.

This just in:

 

Varric is Morrigan

Cassandra is Aveline

Sera is Zevran

Solas is Tamlen

Iron Bull is Arishok

Vivienne is Rica

Blackwall is Fiona

Cole is Shianni

Dorian is Danyla

Cullen is Leliana

Leliana is Oghren

Scribe Girl is Varric

Well, I originally thought Solas might be Felassan, but I'd also moved on to other theories since then--I'm a person who comes up with wild theories, but realizes they're wild enough to be highly improbable.  it's highly unlikely Solas is Felassan, yes, but the possibility IS there; if he had been made Tranquil, and if his vallaslin were magical rather than real, the Breach might have cured his being Tranquil and whatever spell he used to appear to have tattoos might have been broken.  That said, it's highly unlikely--but I can't imagine the Felassan plot being entirely dropped.  So, while he's more than likely a dead elf, he may have had associates, who are most likely other ancient elves.  Could Solas be one of those?  Sure.  Is it likely?  Nope.  They are more than likely not going to be on Team Inquisition.  Thus, if Solas is one of them, it would also probably mean he's an enemy spy.

 

Whoever Solas is, though, I'm pretty sure he'd be very interesting as a romance because of his descriptive food:  Candied super-hot peppers.  Someone in the Solas thread went out and bought Scotch bonnet peppers, and candied them, just to see what it would be like.  They couldn't even actually eat one piece--it was too hot.  Whatever else you might think about him, someone with hot peppers as a personality isn't going to be boring.  He might end up not being likeable, but definitely won't be boring.

Are more people assuming that Cassandra will be bi than straight because Sera was announced as gay? normally when people list what they think for this they list her as the straight one..

LET THE RAGE FEST BEGIN.
 
FIrst up: the forumites who wanted Sera to be M/F
 
GO!!!

I wanted her to be available to male PC, but I'm perfectly fine with t ;).
And I was saying that Sera would be the f/f LI, and that the lesbian LI would be in the party. Seems I was right.
As for my predictions, if we'll follow the 2/2/2 route I still think Cass is going to be straight and Scribbles bi. If we'll get more...I dunno which one between Cass and Viv will be straight/bi.
The situation for the male LI is honestly a bit chaotic :lol:.

Wow, my suspicions were right! Sera really is a female-only LI. And so many were people were saying there was no way they would make a female companion homosexual... I am very happy to hear this news  :lol:

 

I suppose this makes it incredibly likely that Cassandra is male only.

Stop barking like a rabid dog
If I want to say that Solas might be Felassan, I will. If I want to say that Black wall reminds me of Stroud, I will. If I want to say that Sola's is a navi alien who traveled through time and space got to Thedas shaved and called himself Solas I will
It's none of your Goddamned business what people make l theories about and it's not your right to order people what to do with their lives

Not to mention that Felassan's vallaslin was shape shifting and magical in nature. So shut up and let people talk

I also never doubted that the lesbian and gay option would be a companion. I just didn't know who.

It's often up to us to show that the assumptions needn't be true.

Disappointed Sera is available female inquisitor only. Really was looking forward to romancing her with an elven male.

If both other female companions are available to male inquisitor then i'll be frustrated but accepting that i just didn't get any luck in the choice this time.

but I can't imagine the Felassan plot being entirely dropped.

 

But why shoehorn that plot into a different charatcer ? why can't it be two different characters ?
