Hell, maybe Hawke didn't even exist. Maybe Varric was just being modest.
(I just found this video and it entertained me.
)
You know, that really should have been the prologue we saw instead of uber-Hawke.
Inquisition will reveal we're dealing with a situation like in that awesome movie "Without a Clue", where rather than Sherlock Holmes/The Champion of Kirkwall being a real person, they're simply an actor playing the literary invention of Watson/Varric, who was the real hero all along.
And since Hawke was a penniless merc in Act 1 and often forced to accept all manner of weird and wonderful tasks simply because they needed the cash, I could totally see them being up for this kind of gig! ![]()
There might be new content around :45 of this hour on http://www.twitch.tv/ign!
I'm gonna keep an eye on it.
Well, it's that or not having the ability to romance him. They made it clear in DA2 were he stands and that was before they knew he would be playable in the next game. I think it would irritate me more if they changed him just to make him an LI for everybody.
While I wouldn't be surprised if he wasn't available to humans or qunari (though I prefer he wasn't, he is one of the most likely companions most likely to be race-gated), we have no reason to believe he isn't into elves or men. I wish people would stop assuming characters are heterosexual and absolutely could not be bisexual just because they've dated a woman in the past and Bioware chooses to only give a flirt option to female characters...which Varric rejected anyways.
That said, I don't think many people in this thread have a problem with playing a female dwarf. My first character in Origins was a casteless female dwarf and I was disappointed we couldn't play one in DA2. If Varric has a romance, I'll definitely play a female dwarf. If not I might play a female Qunari, just because they are badass and then I can play as a mage too, but I haven't decided yet.
Hey, she wanted him to tell her everything. Including the...quirks. :S
hah hah. In my case, she listened to a 70 hour story, then. That's some dedication...
I'm not sure what to make of that very last question ![]()

He's being careful so saying "It's a mix" is accurate, since Cullen and Cass can be romanced (old characters). I wouldn't worry.

You're probably right ![]()
I took "It's a mix" as a positive, because tbh, I personally don't know Cassandra enough to love her...straws...let me clutch at them.
Looks like I was off with the time, but there's definitely an IGN DA:I thing today.

Here:

In taking "it's a mix" as a good thing on Varric's chances. I shall clutch at the straws with Ajna!
We're gonna need more straws.
There we go. That should be enough.

You're so helpful!We're gonna need more straws.

How is his tarot card sexy too? Is there no limit to Varric's smex appeal
Bianca is at a really weird level in that picture, he fires her off like that then he'll be stumbling away with a very sore pelvis ![]()

It's very suggestive isn't it? *adds it to the evidence pile*

hah hah. Varric's card looks awesome. Thanks for posting that, I missed that part of the stream.

As I said in the Twitter thread, between Bianca being levelled right next to his crotch and the open vest, I feel like Varric is flashing me. PERVERT!
