femwarden human mage

femhawke mage

femquis human mage

 

I  choose mage because I like the class

[Mykel54]

I have only one canon playthrough, the rest are only for seeing stuff i missed in my canon one. So far it looks like:

 

DAO: male dwarf casteless (no romances) = pure warden, ruthless bastard

DA2: female human warrior (LI is sebastian rivalry) = chantry fangirl, social climber

DAI: male elf mage (undecided LI) = pending

 

I like the world to have different heroes that come from all kind of places, so i try to mix gender and races. Particularly what i do is to pick what character i think narratively works better for the story of that game, which comes down to personal opinion. One example: in DA2, i really dislike how hawke mage is portrayed and the amount of plot armour he gets, so i decided that the story of the game with warrior hawke made more sense.

[Gearwarden]

DAO: Male Human Circle Mage (Romanced Morrigan)= Netural Mage, holds strong ties with the Circle, but starts to venture away after dealings with Morrigan

 

DA2: Female Rouge (Romanced Fenris) Aggressive!Hawke, Follows Meredith and the Chantry from fear of Magic. Betrayed by Meredith.

 

DAI: Male Elf Warrior (Cassandra) Good Guy Inquisitor through and through who wants everything to be sunshine and flowers!

 

I think i have a good mix here to tell the truth.

So far, my 3 canon playthroughs will be racially diverse with an elven Warden, human Hawke and qunari Inquisitor, but I always, always play as a mage. There are two reasons. One, I love the mage class; two, I want to lead as an example to other mages (all good-hearted).

MAGE SUPREMACY! MuahahahhahHah

I would say first and foremost, have fun with the game. Don't feel obligated to create a certain character just because unless there's a specific theme you're going for.

 

If you're basing on who the straight male Inquisitor can romance, I'd wait and see until the 'official' list is revealed. I personally have a feeling Cassandra is going to be one of the few options that isn't race gated, and even so given humans and elves are similar (as opposed to dwarves and qunari), I think she'll likely be gated towards humans and elves. As for Ms. Vivienne, we have to see if she's EVEN an option (trust me, I'm hoping she is too, given I have very little interest in romancing Cassandra).

 

I play characters of all races/genders/classes/orientations in rpgs, with a leaning towards male characters of the physical classes (warriors/rogues), females generally tend to be spellcasters though I do have a few lady warriors/assassins

 

As for my Quizzies, I can't say because that list is constantly changing. So many options ;'-) I think once the romance chart is fully revealed (including gated genders/races), that's when the official list will start (yes I do plan my characters with romance as a factor, did so with Origins and shall do the same with Inquisition). Just know I will have both male and female characters, will play one of each race, and want one character per class specialization. So that's at least nine Quizzies right there.

I like to keep a diversity and consistency amongst my playthroughs, i played as a human fem mage in da:o and then decided to be the opposite in da:2 (male warrior) I enjoyed this alot because i loved having bethany as a sister and companion and in inquisition I feel compelled to be an elven female mage but i'm hesitant because i don't like having too many mages in my party. BUT MY problem is that i want to be a male because i wanna romance cassandra or vivienne (one of them are bound to be romanceable for the straight male inquisitors) but i also want to be an elf because i feel like being a human in the past two games means i should mix it up.

Help i need suggestions!!!

 

I prefer the diversity to be in terms of the personality of my characters, rather than their makeup - I play Fallout 3 and New Vegas both with a Latino protagonist, but they have different personalities - one is willing to trek across the Mojave to put Benny in the grave, and the other is willing to turn the other cheek when confronted with Colonel Autumn, as one example. While they have basic similarities, they are very different people.

 

You should do what makes you happy, and what will entertain you the most.

 

also what is your inquisitor's gender, class and race and do you have any reasons behind choosing each?

 

I'm Latino and male, so I tend to do the same with my characters - Antivan is the closest equivalent in Thedas to my ethnicity, so I picture my first two characters as being ethnically Antivan, while culturally Ferelden.

 

My Surana Warden was male, and he was fairly pragmatic about stopping the Blight because he recognized the threat posed by the darkspawn (so he encouraged Avernus' research and spared the Anvil, since it gave the dwarves a hundred years of peace and beat back the first Archdemon before Caridin sealed it away); he also believed in autonomy for the Circle, but he focused on rebuilding the Grey Wardens in the kingdom.

 

My apostate Hawke was male, and wanted to topple the templars. He was focused on helping the mage underground and helping his friends, instead of any monumental catastrophe. He also expressed his political ambitions to Varric.

 

As you can tell, I rather like the mage class (both in terms of game mechanics of combat and the lore behind magic and mages in Thedas), so I'm planning on choosing a mage for my Inquisitor. A Dalish mage. Someone who is focused on the plight of the People (the Elvhen), who isn't too concerned with the war between the mages and the templars, who would desire to see the Dales liberated from the Orlesian Empire and returned to elven control, and who is reluctantly willing to work with an organization his people have viewed as an enemy for centuries.

 

There is always room to define the character differently than your previous protagonists, even if there are some commonalities between them.

With my playthroughs, I always go warrior Warden, warrior Hawke, etc. Same with mages and rogues.

Way to head canon, I like it. I am also an ethnic player, I am African-American so I make all my humans black but with differentiating personalities. Also, Antiva is loosely based off Italy, not Spain.

That's cool.

 

Antiva itself is based on an Italian city-state like Venice, but we have encountered Antivans who speak with strong Spanish accents and even use Spanish in their dialogue, with Zevran saying "Si amor?" to his love interest (The Warden) and Feynriel's father, Vincento, saying "maldición".

Since the Keep apparently will let us tinker with things a bit, I'd like to link my human mage Warden playthrough of DAO to my rogue Hawke playthrough of DA2.

 

My mage romanced Alistair. He broke her heart. She didn't go force him to go through with the Dark Bargain, and left him at the gates to sacrifice herself. It earned the freedom of the Circle in Ferelden and broke his heart. She did it on purpose for breaking her heart (sacrificing herself).

 

My Hawke romanced Anders and was completely oblivious to what he was up to until it was too late. She then knifed him in the back. It did nothing to stop what then happened anyway. She sided with the Circle, and disappeared from Kirkewall afterward. I envision her off in some craphole tavern drinking herself into an early grave having lost everything she ever cared about.

 

I'm not sure what I might choose for my first playthrough in DAI, but I'm sure my first playthrough will be easily incorporate some kind of tragic event to go along with the first two.

+1 like for knifing Anders.

Human male warrior, or Qunari female mage ... Still unsure who I'll start with, depends on LI too.

[frylock23]

I always knifed Anders. Regardless of what I think about the state of things between the Circle and the Templars, Anders went too far.

 

Although I may construct an option where one a Hawke lets him live since I don't actually have to pick that option.

[metalfenix]

On Origins, my warden was a male amell mage, who does not want to do anything with the circle, but worked for their independence from the templars, romanced zevran, hardened alistair to marry anora and make him king and used loghain to kill the archdemon. No old god's baby, so morrigan will have to look someone else to have her babies. He was a blood mage, so wynne and her annoying preaching was out shortly afterwards. Decided to keep andraste's ashes, but it was a real hard call, he was tempted to defile them.

 

On DA II, aggresive male mage hawke, friendmanced anders, and let him live BUT ended the romance afterwards, he always will be a second before his obsession of justice. sided with mages and let his brother go to the templars. Tried to deal the qunaris with respect, but their treatment with the mages (specially after Ketoja's death) made him distrust every qunari he came accross. Had a full rivalship with fenris...surprisingly, he stood with him to the end.

 

On inquisition, my canon inq will be a qunari male mage (maybe rift mage). He despises everything about the qun (obviously, since he is a mage) and will have conflictive views with cass, cullen and maybe Iron Bull if he decides to stand by that lunatic qun code (let's hope not, since he is my first choice of romance).

[Feybrad]

I always saved Anders. Because he was my Healer and I suck if I don't have my Healer. I only knifed him when I was the Healer myself.

 

I hated that it was him - or that we couldn't at least make Merrill a Healer. While I understand all Lore reasons, this was the one Time I decided something in a Dragon Age Game for gameplay reasons, while my Characters would have done something else.

Well, I plan on never repeating a class on my initial playthroughs, currently I have 3 world states that I plan to use:

1-Female Elf Mage, Male Rogue Hawke, Female Qunari Warrior (or possibly Dwarf, can't decide yet) 2-Male Human Warrior, Female Rogue Hawke, Female Dalish Mage Inquisitor. 3-Female Dalish Elf Rogue, Female Mage Hawke, Male Qunari Warrior (this is the one I'll play first).

As for the peace talks, I'm also wondering what the hell the non-human races will be doing there. I can see the Dalish having a reason for being there, but Qunari and Dwarf? Maybe for protection, as mercenaries or.. can't really imagine a valid reason right now.. I hope that whatever the writers pull of to explain this, that it is consistent. I also have this little theory that maybe, depending on which race you choose, you won't have anything do to with the peace talks at all and just happen to be in the blast radius when you were going about your business, a little lame but I wouldn't be surprised to see this, I'm under the impression that this conference isn't going to be a second Ostagar since this time they lack a "Duncan" to recruit you to an Order(the Inquisition being formed after the blast). I do think however that no matter what race/class/background you choose, you'll have an unique encounter with the big baddie before the story gets to a common point.
