Well, then, it looks like I'm more in line with Chantry policy than you are. Funny old world, isn't it?
Understanding Chantry policy does not mean you align with it. It means you have basic comprehension and at least try to remain unbiased.

Well, I will concede that you are correct: the Chantry's policy is no longer to persecute mages. Now if only they could take an active hand in taking out the templars who started all this crap, we could work together nicely.

Well, the Inquisition is Justinia's attempt to help out.

Which doesn't seem to be the case after the cataclysm that eventually leads to the protagonist becoming the Inquisitor of the Inquisition.

Very courteous of her, by the way, to die before she could interfere in its running. Fun times should be in store.

Oh, I'm so going to love hijacking it.
I retract my wishes for her to die early in the game. Making a puppet out of her would be much better.
And sometimes people wonder why BSN is considered a hostile enviroment...

Bioware created a hostile fandom with the way their factions were designed. They seem to rather enjoy it.

Sorry, JB. I believe it's safe to assume she goes up in flames at the beginning.
What? It seems like, for once, everyone is one the same page.
We're all looking foward to hijacking the Inquisition and doing whatever we think is best with it.
Probably not going to work out like everyone's imagining, tough.

True. Well, poetic justice, really.
She's joining Thrask's group. Pro-mage being killed by magic.

Oh, yeah. I think it's a given that nothing will go how we initially planned. I'm very curious to what extent we can influence or be influenced by the Chantry, since they're gonna have to crown a new Divine.

If it turns out the Templars are the ones that caused the fade rift I am going to bust a gut laughing.

Hate to point out the obvious but there is no way magic wasn't involved in opening the sky in half.

Still doesn't mean anything. Templars have their own form of magic. Besides the veil isn't just effected by magic, it is also effected by events like blood baths for example. The templars are good at those.
But I still think it will be beyond funny if the Templars are the ones responsible.

I just said "killed by magic", I didn't specify the source.
And you think that if a Blight that lasted for two hundred years couldn't do this, the Templars did?
The Chantry started this whole mess.
Let it burn.

It could be like the after dinner mint in Monty Python and the Meaning of Life.
I suspect that whoever blew up the Peace Summit was whoever was behind the Veil Tears.
Or, they manipulated someone else to do their bidding. If it's by magic, it's probably a Mage taking a page out of Anders' book. "There can be no compromise."

I suppose it would depend on the leadership who are managing things in the wake of Divine Justinia V's death, and their reaction to the Inquisitor, who seems to be viewed with some religious significance, that the player can apparently comment on in different ways. Depending on the racial background, I can imagine some will have no interest in being manipulated by the Chantry hierarchy.

Very true. That's going to be one of the most interesting things that we are going to witness in DA:I: people taking their organization in the way they want.
Until they reach the Bioware Limit, of course. Because Bioware will want some things to be canon for everyone (a new Inquisition created, a Breach ended, likely) and others... well, not so much.

Given the rumours, maybe there won't be a Chantry hierarchy after the Breach.
It reminds me a bit of Dawn of the Seeker. The plan there was to kill the Divine and every Grand Cleric except one, because that one would become the new Divine. My current guess is, if every rumour so far is correct, that two Grand Clerics may survive and we'll have to support one or the other to become the new Divine.
I cannot wait to save the Chantry. I'll have no harm come to such a pious, just and bigotry free organization.
Perhaps when I save it I can rename it the "Ministry of Love".

I suppose, if the Inquisitor wants to save the Chantry, that could be an option.
If the Inquisitor doesn't want to save the Chantry, their desire might not matter. The Chantry could well and simply recover because the Inquisitor is succeeding at stabilizing the world, and the Chantry re-fils the power vacuum once the surviving establishment gets its act together.
The Inquisitor may not intend to assist the Chantry's recovery, but the Inquisitor's desires are quite irrelevant to the consequences of their actions, deliberate and accidental both.
