One can not go out and represent the Inquisition in that hat. Is it no one remembers him or all the can see is giant hat?
And yet we allow Vivienne to wander about looking like an even more fabulous version of Maleficent, and Blackwall to parade about in that ridiculous plumed thing? We have a strict non-discriminatory, all-headwear-accepting policy in this organization, my good Ser.
Hahaha, what if he wears it so people will remember SOMETHING about him?
Bandit 1: Hey, wasn't we just talkin' to someone?
Bandit 2: What? Like who?
Bandit 1: You know, there was that bloke in the ridiculous hat. Big as a bloody kite, it was.
Bandit 2: Oh yeah, I remember that hat! Real ugly thing, though.
Bandit 1: Haha, yeah, I wouldn't be caught dead wearin'--- *gets fireballed in the face*
Inquisitor: Don't you dare insult his fashion choices, you scoundrel! He is learning!
Cole: *fidgets* See, Inquisitor, I don't think wearing this is going to help...
Quizzy: Nonsense, Cole, you look very fetching. That hat was a very good choice, I told Vivienne she was being too hard on you when she... *sees that Bandit 2 is getting away and shoots a spell after him* HEY, I DIDN'T SAY YOU COULD LEAVE! APOLOGIZE!
Cole: *sheepishly* Inquisitor, really, it's okay...
Quizzy: *ignores him and pokes the bandit with their staff* I am the Grand Inquisitor of the Inquisition, and I am exacting justice upon you for terrorizing nearby villages and being unnecessarily rude! Say you're sorry!
Bandit 2: I'm sorry, Andraste's blessed arse!
Cole: *heavy sigh*
