Part of me wants to see Shale return as a dwarf since she's the original Cadash.
Yes! I was disappointed we didn't even get a mention of her. Even Wynne who's dead gets a mention.

So, are dwarf warriors locked out of the Templar spec? There's a thread right now that makes it sounds as if they might be, but I hadn't heard there were any restrictions on dwarves other than no mages?
No, dwarves can be Templars just fine. You even get dwarven related templar dialogue.
OK, maybe they just meant they couldn't be in the order. Very confusing ![]()
Plot twist: Inquisitor Cadash is Shale.
Trans Shale, for the male Cadashes? ![]()
Trans Shale, for the male Cadashes?
I rolled my first ever Dwarf for Inquisition and thought that the game did a terrific job of reflecting that choice.

Given how much I enjoyed the experience, I'm tempted to revisit Origins as a Dwarf commoner. Really enjoying seeing peoples Inquisitors - pls keep the pics coming peeps.
Nice screenshots! And it's totally worth a DC run in Origins.
Hi guys! Long time no see!
I finally had time to finish the ball - and I'm happy to say that I'm again in love with both Merry and DA:I.
Why you ask - it's simple - I started to hunt dragons! I already killed the ones from Hinterlands (Blackwall did the dirty work) and Exalted Plains (it was all Merry hidding behind the rocks and shooting the beast - I had awesome time) Also I made myself a new bow (130 DPS, 105 DMG, +10 electricity dmg, +9% crictical chance, +16 cunning, +7 dexterity, +7,5% extra focus for each enemy within 8 meters) and new armor (167 armor, +3 cunning, +13% fire resistance, +40 maximum health, +5 willpower, +5% extra focus for each enemy within 8 meters). Right now I'm lvl 16 and I have 45% crictical chance and 74% critical damage bonus - not bad at all ![]()
Tempest is amazing for archers as long as you get advanced flask of fire and flask of lighting.
And Blackwall is fantastic LI - I love him and I wish he was real man
He says all the right stuff and he can even dance! When after one of the fights he asked "Are you alright, love?" I screamed with delight. IMO Blackwall is the best male LI in Dragon Age series (he might be even better than Kaidan from ME series!) - mind that I haven't romanced Cullen yet (he has to wait for Julia).
Anyways here are some screenies

Something smells funny here and it ain't me.


New armor like new clothes make everything so much better ![]()
I actually haven't watched any Cassandra or Josephine romance videos because I like finding out about the romances through you guys in this thread. I live vicariously through your enjoyment!
I've finally got the ball rolling on my second Cadash. I didn't feel right playing a non-dwarf on a Brosca import (think I already mentioned that, sorry) so I had to ponder how to make her feel different than my first. Picking different choices wasn't good enough. Inspiration struck in Haven when I was in the jail area, finally unlocking all those cells that I couldn't reach on my warrior. It was just more paperwork and as I found myself rifling through them, I realized that this was a realistic excuse to RP a dwarf that was knowledgeable about history (all the inquisition perks) and how things worked. (This was a bit difficult for me to rationalize on my first Cadash thug because it wasn't like she went to boarding school and studied up on all this -- I planned on skipping the lore perks when I rerolled her later on.)
More importantly, this is the part that makes my second Cadash so interesting to play. There's no specified age for the Inquisitor. They can be young or as old as we want, which is quite a change from the limited ranges that our Origin characters had. I picked one of the older complexions and started RPing her as dwarven Judi Dench, inspired by M from the James Bond movies. And she absolutely is taking advantage of telling people she's the Herald. I don't know if she believes in the Stone or Andraste yet. I've been avoiding that conversation with Josephine until I get a better feel. For now, it's just an illusion she's maintaining to grease the wheels and get stuff done.
Edit: Make-up because she's a well-groomed smooth talker. Like Puss in Boots.
OMG I love her! Who will you romance this time around? Sera? Let's be honest Gilsa - your dwarf ladies are the best looking ones
Tish - it's almost Christmas. When will you show us your heroine?!
Woohoo, Mira! Make sure to stop by the BW thread when you're done. I adore him too, and good people there. (Avoid now tho, srs spoilers untagged often there!)
Hi Veeia! Will do - I'll check the BW thread once I complete his romance ![]()
Merry's looking fab as always.
Merry says "Awww, thank you" ![]()
YAY DWARF CONVERT!!! Welcome Fandango! Absolutely worth playing through DA:O as a dwarf, particularly for the origins + Orzammar.
Welcome to the dwarf club Fandango! We're all Brothers and Sisters here

Why are you trying to get me drunk, IB? Don't you know I'm already taken?

By the paragons! Both your Dwarves look absolutely beautiful!
I had to change a small feature with Stonehelm's appearance but I have finally reached The Winter Palace again ![]()
So happy that Stonehelm has now reached The Winter Palace again and he is romancing Josie
Only did Cass before my game file got corrupted and well....I was forced to buy a new PS4, thanks to my mate but I'm back where I left off!
Time to get drunk with Bull and Varric xD

I'm really sorry your old PS4 died - I'm glad you got a new one though and you're playing DA:I again ![]()
Is it me or do dwarves look hilariously out of place during the dance with Gaspard's sister? Maybe it works for guys, but seeing Merry leading was just weird.

Thank god I have a job haha and my mate paid half :L But thank you once again
With Stonehelm, it looks fine but haven't tried with a female yet. I can't bare myself to create another race....I just love dwarves way to much xD
I really want to play as a female dwarf since my last playthrough was a guy, but if I am doing dwarf I cant get over wanting to be a badass like Dwalin..so I keep getting pulled toward a male lol
Anyone else really curious to know what's up with both Solas and Cole seeming to imply to Varric that the Dwarves weren't always cut off from the Fade and something apparently happened in the past to permanently sever their connection?
Cole: Do you write to reach across? To hear the song that was sundered?
Solas: Dwarves are the severed arm of a once mighty hero, lying in a pool of blood: Undirected, whatever skill at arms it had... gone forever. Although it might twitch to give the appearance of life, it will never dream.
