sorry if there's already a thread
This is really nice,but I was hoping for some more insights on Rift Mage and tempest. Oh,well...
Qunari Mage
Followers of the strict religious philosophy of the Qun, the Qunari appeared like a tidal wave to the north of Thedas three hundred years ago. You are Tal-Vashoth, a Qunari who has rejected the Qun and never even lived in Qunari lands. You have earned a place within the Valo-kas mercenary company as its mage, possessing abilities that would have made you a pet slave among your own people, ignoring the fearful looks you receive from those around you. Most recently the company was sent to the Chantry conclave, hired swords meant to keep the peace—a task that has gone horribly wrong.
Qunari Rogue/Warrior
Followers of the strict religious philosophy of the Qun, the Qunari appeared like a tidal wave to the north of Thedas three hundred years ago. You are Tal-Vashoth, a Qunari who has rejected the Qun and never even lived in Qunari lands. As part of the Valo-kas mercenary company, you have earned a living by your own wits and the strength of your blade, ignoring the fearful looks you receive from those around you. Most recently the company was sent to the Chantry conclave as hired swords meant to keep the peace between mages and templars—a task that has gone horribly wrong.
Human Rogue/Warrior
As the youngest child of the Trevelyan noble house, you grew up in the Free Marcher city of Ostwick and have enjoyed a life of privilege. With close family ties to the Chantry, and many relatives among the priesthood and the templars, you were always expected to follow a similar path in service of the Maker—regardless of how you feel about the matter personally. Willing or unwilling, you were sent to the Chantry's conclave to assist relatives who sought to make peace between the templars and mages. It didn't go well.
Dwarven Rogue/Warrior
The dwarves of Thedas are known for their once-vast underground empire and guilds of merchants and warriors held in high esteem by the other races of Thedas. Not you. A cast-off "surfacer," unwelcome among the dwarves or most humans, you have scraped by as part of a criminal fraternity known as the Carta, smuggling magical ore known as lyrium. As part of the ruthless Cadash crime family, you spent your life on the streets of various Free Marcher city-states—until you were sent to the Chantry conclave as a spy and everything changed.
Elven Rogue/Warrior
Enslaved long ago by humans, most elves still live as second-class citizens within human cities. Elves who reject this life are known as the Dalish: nomadic wanderers who strive to keep the ancient elven religion and traditions alive. You were raised in the wilderness to be a hunter, relied upon by the Lavellan clan for food and protection. The clan wandered the northern Free Marches and had little need to interact with humans—until the clan's Keeper sent you to the Chantry's conclave as a spy. What happened there, she said, would impact not only the Dalish but indeed all elves. She could not have known how right she was.
Human Mage
Born to the Trevelyan noble family of Ostwick in the Free Marches, you were originally intended for a life of privilege—until magical abilities surfaced at a young age and you were forced into a life of confinement within Ostwick's Circle of Magi. Protected but stifled, educated but isolated, the Circle would have been your entire future had the mages not rebelled against Chantry rule. Like it or not, you had to fight for your life against templars hunting down all "free" mages. You joined the delegation of mages attending a Chantry conclave in hopes of negotiating peace with the templars. It didn't go well.
Elven Mage
Enslaved long ago by humans, most elves still live as second-class citizens within human cities. Elves who reject this life are known as the Dalish: nomadic wanderers who strive to keep the ancient elven religion and traditions alive. You grew up in the wilderness, a member of the Lavellan Dalish clan and apprentice to its leader and guide, the Keeper. The clan wandered the northern Free Marches, and you had little need to interact with humans—until the Keeper sent you to the Chantry's conclave as a spy. What happened there, she said, would impact not only the Dalish but indeed all elves. She could not have known how right she was.
What about the Dwarf Mage option. Lel
Hey, dwarves get better magic resist than they did in Origins!
Humans get an extra ability point, qunari get 50 extra health, and elves get...
25% ranged defense. Okay. >__>;;
You forgot Dwarves: 25% bonus to magic defense.
I think many people are going to complain about the backgrounds now. At least we know why a Dalish or Dwarf would be there...they are spies.

I don't really care about dwarves, so I didn't mention them. /shrugs
My question is... forehead tattoo, or qunari head slot?

The background information for the elven mage protagonist seems like the elves will play a part in the storyline. "What happened there, she said, would impact not only the Dalish but indeed all elves. She could not have known how right she was." This makes me very optimistic about Inquisition.
I'm curious how the Keeper of an elven clan in the northern Free Marches (a clan who has had little to no contact with humans) knows about the Chantry's conclave Ferelden.
Why you gotta disappoint me like this, website. :S
Such trolls lol

Perhaps from elven mages who joined the clan for sanctuary, and who decided to find a place among the Dalish instead of heading to the conclave?
I'm kinda meh about them saying the qunari Inquisitor rejecting the Qun, when they was never born into it to begin with
And I wonder if we'll see the relatives of the human warrior/rogue, probably not ![]()
I'm excited about the human backgrounds the most, I must say. The Trevelyan-Chantry connection is rather interesting.

It's a bit reminiscent of Sebastian, and his family's association with the Chantry. Maybe that's typical of powerful families?
Oh I'm super happy , my Dalish hunter I wanted to make just fits perfectly with the background!
Edit :and yeah the background for Human mage sounds good too!

That's all I can think of.
Though, sending one of those elves to spy might work better than an elf who's obviously dalish and obviously doesn't belong there.
The elven background seems like it would be the best fit with a rogue but a mage could blend in with the other mages (stay hooded to hide the vallaslin).
And I wonder if we'll see the relatives of the human warrior/rogue, probably not
hmm sounds interesting, human noble here I come
They probably all died.
Yea, but if the opening play off like a prologue/Ostagar type opening mission like I'm hoping then we could possibly see them along with the other characters that are gonna be there
