dat accent :wub:

 

I could imagine Gwendoline Christie being that voice -- and it would be amazing if she were Vivienne, because I adore her -- but didn't she only start doing VO work for Inquisition this April?

I think a few months' time is generally enough for voice work. Happens all the time with DLC characters.

I have nooo idea, they could've sampled her voice for that one video... anythings possible. But in comparison they sound very similar

My point was, the game footage is from last September, heheh.

That is also possible. I never thought the VO's from last year's demo were anything more than placeholder.

I disagree, and even then, in the Wilds Flemeth had most of the times (when she didn't want some company at night :whistle:) the aspect of a old, not attractive woman.

 

It's all a ruse for the Warden to think she's just an old hag.

 

Her true form is the GILF.

I think most are guessing Vivienne or Scribbles right now.

 

I picture Scribe Girl with a rivain accent really

They mentioned an "early VO session" with her in April, so I assumed it was the first.  But, you're right, anything's possible!

Yeah, they could have sampled her voice for last year's demo and then decided to bring her in later on.

 

I think I remember Mark tweeting something about the September demo being raw and that anything could change in the final release, which would make sense.

 

Still, fingers crossed for GC to be Viv's voice actress!

I can see that, but also a voice that isn't as deep.

Yeah, they didn't distinguish themselves from Ferelden voices with Bela and Duncan. Although I thought Rivain might be like Spain at one point.

I think it would be awesome for Vivienne to have a South African accent.

I thought they were Italy. Or more specifically, old Venitian Italy.

Antiva and it's Likes are analogues to the free italian Cities, while rivain is something of a Stand-In for Spain / moorish Spain.

I bet I can halve the amount of words in that sentence and make it doubly good.

'Vivienne is bisexual'

(I was right!)

 

Well, yeah, obvs, but I was thinking about them not wanting to reveal some sexualities (for whatever reason) e.g. them being super tight-lipped about Cass and Cullen.

 

She is available to male Inquisitors as a potential mage companion.

 

:(

It's an English accent, just like Ferelden. :/

Think Isabela.

Antiva is like a fictional version of medieval Italian city, and then Zevran showed up with a Spanish accent :D

I saw that tweet but was curious about it...I always thought she never quite got to become the First Enchanter b/c of the mage rebellion.

 

The same. That's why I was surprised. But The op asked was vivienne meant to become and Mary answered she is. I think it's clear. After that, I read the lore about what is and what does a first enchanter in a circle. I must admit, I never was so interested by " what is the meaning of this job. "  :lol:

 

That's what I found with wiki : 

 

A first enchanter retains their position for life and reserves the right to appoint a successor should the first enchanter perish or choose to retire[2]. This decision must also take into consideration the opinion of the templars. Eligible for this position are the Circle's senior enchanters.[3] If there is no successor, the Knight-Commander appoints one, usually with the approval of the Circle's mages.[4] A first enchanter is usually someone who is respected by all mages and usually the templars too, and he or she is not always chosen based off their power and abilities.

A first enchanter officially has a broad range of powers. Their permission or consent is needed:

  • for a mage to leave the tower;
  • for templars to summon an apprentice for the Harrowing;
  • for templars to make a mage Tranquil;
  • for templars to move overtly against a Circle mage suspected of practicing forbidden magic.

However, the extent to which the templars allow a first enchanter to exercise their powers varies from tower to tower.

First enchanters routinely congregate in the city of Cumberland, at their College. There they elect a new Grand Enchanter every few years.

 

So Vivienne, first enchanter, courtier, advisor to Celene and fearsome for the Orlesian court ? She will be soooo interesting, and It will be sooo interesting to hear her stories !!!!

 

 

Otherwise, When I heard the E3 demo, I also thought it was very similar to Brienne of Torth when Vivienne screamed. I'm also thinking it is very likely that Gwendoline Christie is voicing her !

Well Vivienne is confirmed to be from the Montsimmard circle, I think Fiona was First Enchanter of that circle so if she does indeed die in the explosion and Vivienne was her successor that would technically make Viv First Enchanter but it wouldn't mean much because of the rebellion. Maybe that's what Mary meant when she said "she is". 

 

If that is the case then I would be interested to know how Viv became her successor.

Fiona left the Grey Wardens and became the Grand Enchanter at some point.  I think she was part of the Monstimmard Circle at one point but don't know if she was ever the First Enchanter there.

But Gwindeline isn't French. How could she be the VA of Vivienne?
