Where there's a will, there's a way. So, you have a Dwarf who does grunt work in the Carta, but you want her to be a lady of fashion and education? Easy. She has to spy on people, right? Well, she can listen to what they're saying, but also how they're saying it. She can watch how they dress and act. She can learn to read from a target.

 

Cadash: You want to live? Then you'll teach me to read! And not a word to anyone about this, or *drag finger across throat.*

 

Imagine her practicing walking daintily in front of a mirror, or talking to herself to perfect proper diction. She has a secret stash of books and a pretty dress that she keeps hidden somewhere.

 

The possibilities are endless! (I kinda want to make that character now. )

 

All of my likes please take them you deserve every one of them for just bringing my Tabatha back with that amazing idea!

I'm letting my Cadash be Vivienne's dress up doll. She loves it (all the clothes/jewelry she never got to wear and all) but she'll never admit it. xD

My Tabatha Cadash will happily be Vivienne's dress up doll any reason to wear fancy clothes and jewelry plus I'm sure she'd like spending time with Vivienne as well Though if both Vivienne and Varric are romanceable Tabatha would be quite torn between the two

I was thinking about that too, so I think it would also depend on the age of the inquisitor. Hawke was in his/her 20s in DA2 and wasn't the warden around that age as well? Since Varric is in his early 40s and we assume that the Bianca thing ended in his late 20s (before the decade of Hawke), that would plug our quiizies around what? Maybe the Quizzy was like 10 when that happened? It wouldn't be his/her fault and I think Varric would just object to the Cadash family, not the inquisitor his/herself.

In which case a friendship or romance could happen, as long as there aren't really strong family ties? And that's even if the Cadash family had a big part to play with whatever happened to Bianca other than being part of the Carts.

 

I'm not sure the age would matter, simply the affiliation.  I guess it all depends on Varric's capacity for holding a grudge.  They've hinted that he still bares a lot of resentment towards the Qunari for the events in Kirkwall, and it seems like the Carta made things a lot more personal than that.

 

It would be a cruelly ironic twist of fate if Varric ended up being a race-gated love interest gated against Dwarves, specifically because the only Dwarf you can be is from the organization that is his nemesis.

 

Wild speculation, of course, I hope no one takes it too seriously.

I kinda like it, except it ruins my notion of doing an Dwarf Warden/Cadash+Varric.

Eris by forgelight...

 

 

I'm gonna stop now...

[Clockwork_Wings]

Oh, no, by all means, continue.  She looks kinda like Saarebas.

[Chernaya]

Aw, I'm sorry the Dwarf background messed up so many people's initial ideas. :c I gotta say, personally I see it as a good chance to make a character different from my 'goody-good' qunari.   But I probably won't have the heart to make a character who stays cold and calculating till the end, I never do. lol

 

Edit: Ajna, I'm out of likes, but I'm loving your Skyrim!Qunari! so pretty!

[Clockwork_Wings]

So, one of the devs said who one is (class) determines why they are at the peace talks.  The rogues and the warriors all seemed very much the same, and among the elves, the warriors, rogues, and the mages.  Maybe there is a subtle difference?  Like, if one plays a dwarf warrior, they're carta muscle, bodyguards for the higher-ups, intimidators, etc, but if they're rogues, they're Carta spies and lockpicks?

I've thought about that too Gann, in fact that might make for an amazing storyline, romance subplot.  What the Inquisition is dealing with is so much bigger than the Carta, I think there could be learning for all.  Cadash Inquisitor can't help who their parents are...

[Ajna]

Okay then, you twisted my arm...I have to take more...but I'm a bit of a screenshot ****** in Skyrim, my PC hates me for it

Interesting! I know I saw the descriptions changed a bit in the background depending on class (Dalish rogue and warrior is a hunter, Dalish mage is second to the Keeper), but I didn't know that changed why they went to the conference. Neat to know. 

[Clockwork_Wings]

It's what they said, someone asked if a rogue was the same character as a warrior, and that was their response, that why you're there varies from class to class.

I just have a hard time thinking of where she could have gotten this education outside of the family especially if she's a grunt is all. I'm probably wording it to not make any sense I tend to do that a lot. Though we are on the surface so I suppose she could get access to more books and educational tools than Brosca could in DAO. I just kind of thought/assumed/hoped that Cadash would have been from a merchant family instead something else that would just kind of fit the well educated dwarf diva fashionista I had in my head. Maybe I just have a limited imagination but I just have a hard time picturing that if she is only a grunt in the Carta family now if she was higher up I could see it a little bit better but I have a feeling that might not happen. If any of that remotely makes any sense^^;

 

This is all speculation, of course, but I kind of got the impression that Cadash's family was pretty highly ranked in the Carta. After all, they specifically mention the "ruthless Cadash crime family", and I doubt they'd care much who you're related to if you're a run-of-the-mill leg-breaker. Seems like our character is less "random grunt" and more "favored niece/nephew of the Don", which should make an interesting contrast with the Dwarven Commoner.

It would be kinda cool if he starts off at odds with the PC dwarf because of their Carta connections. I'd be really interested to see how their relationship grows over time! Especially if the Cadash family had something to do with Bianca's death/disappearance.    ( Whether indirectly or directly. )

 

Btw, am I the only one who's excited to have a character that will actually be able to stand at eye level with Varric? Ya'know, instead of looking down at him all the time like Hawke had to. Or even better if the Quizzy is slightly shorter than him and is having to tilt her head up to see his  face in conversations.

That's my hope.  Not sure I want a Brosca 2.0  The discrition doesn't seem to imply mafia prince(ss) to me, but maybe.

 

Although I may make my first dwarf worldstate a dwarf commoner warden, for the contrast.  Seems like that would be brought up more than with a noble.

 

NPC: A castless dwarf becomes the hero of Fereldan and a paragon in one move, now a surfacer is closing the rifts.  Keep going like this and [dwarf king] is going to just have to abolish the castes.

"Ruthless" is the only part that bothers me.  I've never been able to play a character like that.

That is a very good point unless you're low on the family list if the family named was specifically mentioned then it does seem to lean towards the Cadash PC being higher up on the Carta food chain than I first worried about. I suppose if I had taken time to re read the bio again and not let my paranoid mind go into worry mode I may have caught that before I start putting up worried posts^^; terrible habit of mine I'm afraid.

[Chernaya]

Yeah, I think it's probably quite a different past than the casteless origin who lives underground. Seems quizzy will be more well known and have a much larger network and be at a higher rank as well.

I wouldn't worry too much (I don't play evil characters, either) -- the family may have a reputation, but I'm almost 100% sure we can make it so the Inquisitor as an individual isn't a bad person. I don't think they'd do that to us. 

[Gannayev of Dreams]

I also feel a bit bad that the Cadash family seems to have fallen to such levels.  Shayle deserves more from her descendants.

I'm sure/I hope we won't have to be ruthless it would be a little odd if what race we picked decided the only tone we could use. None of my Cadash are ruthless characters either partly because it doesn't fit them and partly because I can't play them so I doubt we'll be forced to be a 100% cut throat just part of a ruthless family.

Well, the family's ruthless. BioWare's pretty good at letting you figure out who your character is, so we'll probably have a chance to play the white sheep.

No worries! God knows I've missed important information because I haven't gone back to reread. I mean, if nothing else you can play a thief who likes snagging books and learning what she can from them - there's almost always some way to tweak that kind of detail.

[Ajna]

I don't think playing a dwarf will require you to be ruthless lol.  That would make things pretty restrictive...which is not something that BioWare do.  I'll be a kind Cadash, I mean... Aeducan's aren't necessarily cut from the same cloth as their siblings, mine isn't anyway.
