It's not that I don't like Tallis. I just don't understand her character's purpose in the game. In the DLC she just shows up randomly (granted much of what happens to Hawke is rather like that) and eventually reveals herself to be part of the Qun. I know that elves, humans, eskimos are allowed to join the Qun as it is a religion, not a race and we see this throughout the game with Seamus Dumar's infatuation about the philosophical aspects of the Qun and the elves who murdered a guardsmen in ACT II who join and are welcomed (plus other garnishes from WoT book) but I just felt with Tallis that there was a lot of the Qun and Qunari lore lacking (is probably the best term I can think of). It doesn't get explained properly and plus, Tallis is female. I was under the impression from Sten and Arishok that a woman cannot be anything except have a more spiritual, reproductive and leadership role in the Qun not an assassin who fights -- and not all Qunari are as worldly now as Sten became after the Blight. Granted you could argue this on many ways, such as the Tal Vasoth (with playing a fem kossith) but they aren't under the Qun or have disbanded from the Qun for so long that their daughters, nieces, sisters are allowed to take on more physical roles that would have otherwise been for men. I just found the fact that Tallis was allowed to continue in her sector as virtually acting as the police for the Qun...when she is female...confusing and against what has been told to the PC by Sten. It just felt like she was a mary-sue.
