Backlash is she's straight OR bisexual?
 
Wut.


I think that that confession was missing the word "not"; I can see this place going nuclear if Cassandra is lesbian.

I'm not sure why, but I always had the impression that Leliana's mother was taken advantage off by some noble/soldier while she was under the service of Lady Cecilie...


Given Leliana's mother was a maid to Lady Cecile, it's quite likely her father was also a servant.

And Cecile seemed like a kindly old woman, which could have been a reason for Leliana's mother to leave with er


In a number of fantasies and historical romances, when someone from a lower class background has an unknown father, the father will be something more dramatic than another servant. This trope even made it into Catwoman one time; I recall a storyline where we learn that Selina's father is not some regular blue-collar drunk, but Carmine "The Roman" Falcone, head of the Falcone crime family.

For all we know, Leliana’s father could turn out to be Gaspard.

My own preference is that she’s the child of two servants and that her mother left her because she didn’t want to raise a child, and she knew Lady Cecile would provide for her.

Could it be possible Leliana's father and human noble father knew each other? Or at least met?


Yes, it’s also possible for Leliana’s father to meet any of the Warden’s other parents.

Do the Bioware devs read this forum?  Maybe they will change their minds about not letting Leliana be romanced. It's not too late. We live in hope....and dreams:)

 

Oh who am I kidding....

Or Leliana's father was Bryce Cousland.

 

Yeah.  Went there.  :P

He's not Orlesian. That's cheating!

I'm sure everyone knows Alix Wilton Regan(AWR) is one of the voices for femquisitor and she also voiced Samantha Traynor in ME3. So I found this on Tumblr that may give you a smile

Spoiler


*did not smile*

Well, it kind of IS too late. They can't put another romance in the game within 3 months until release. I mean, let's face it, while romance may not be the most important part of the game it has a pretty big influence on everything, and is quite complex in terms of dialogue, animation, cutscenes, and so forth.

 

Not that I wouldn't want it, though. Delay the game if you must, BioWare :P

Yes, popular characters from previous games will be brought into new games. Because of the false consensus effect though, people will believe that a specific developer liked the character, not that many people did.

Yes.

Nope, that would be tacky. Isabela coming back for another threesome/foursome would also be tacky.

I suspect that the original wording is correct. If she's straight, people will be unhappy. If she's bisexual, people will be unhappy.

Though if she were a lesbian, I agree with Eirene that would be hellish in terms of backlash.

1. People just don't want to understand that companies want (and need) to make money and that one of the best ways to do that is to bring back the most popular characters.

 

2. I sincerely doubt that Cassandra is going to be a lesbian, considering we already have Sera filling that niche.

Now now, let's not be selfish! We have Sera to keep us company, Leliana to pine over and the other ladies to haunt our dreams if need be. Other people need someone to fill the void too. :D

My guess is that Cassandra will be straight and Vivienne a bisexual L.I. Or maybe that will be reversed and Cassandra will be bi and Vivienne straight. In either case, I'd be surprised if the party members weren't equally divided in a way that any gender/sexual preference combo has at least two potential options.

My gut tells me that Cass is straight and Viv is bi, but Bioware likes to defy expectations, so maybe it's the other way around. What I mean is that since Viv is Orlesian, it would be easy to assume that she would be bi. Orlesians are not known to be shy about that. But I agree that we'll probably get a couple of options per orientation. It wouldn't be fair otherwise. One thing is certain: hearts will be broken. Ours or the characters' (or both!) remains to be seen.

Leliana's Mother was a descendant of Andraste and her father was the maker

Well, technically that is true for everyone in Thedas. Maybe the Maker abandoned the world because no one could be bothered to remember his name!

Her father was obviously the 1991 Denver Broncos.

Yes, the majority of people who've bothered to speculate have decided Cassandra is straight.

Which means she won't be of course... she needs to have Mom and Dad bickering scene with Leliana full of subtext.

I haven't decided anything. I'm still hopeful. And speculation is fun!

It was him who killed the Dalish Warden's father all along.

Ouch...

 

Speaking of parentage, do you think Leliana got her red hair form her mom or her dad?

Apparently it's more of a Fereldan thing, so I'd say her mother.
