Well, I'm not here to complain that the protagonist of the first game isn't going to appear in the third game, if I'm not wrong Bioware already confirmed that the Hero of Ferelden or Commander of the Grey will not make presence in standard DA:I. The thing is, it's pretty clear most of the fans really want to see the return of the previous hero, right? I got some ideas for a future expansion/dlc, and I hope Bioware read this, and I hope you guys like me(fan) read this too! I'd like to say that english is not my first language, so things could get a little confusing during the text, I hope you forgive me.
The Protagonist of this new story
Like I said before, the protagonist would be The Warden/Hero of Ferelden/The Orlesian Warden/Commander of the Grey.
Before, after or during the events of the third game?
I thought about it a lot, and "before" was the most possible one, maybe during too.
The return of the "Origins System"
What does that mean? You might be asking. Well, it means that the story would have different beginnings. Why? Because we have different endings for the hero. He could be The Warden, or the Orlesian Warden. He/she could be the Commander of the Grey or not. Did he/she went into the Eluvian with Morrigan? Wich one was the final state of your hero? (Those are the ones that I remember)
Each ending would originate into an "origin prologue", like we had in the first game. This would be really interesting, and it would feel nostalgic. And the most important, it would help the developers to conciliate all the possible states of our heroes and drive all of them in a unique direction to start the real adventure, like Origins did before.
Reasons. What would be the reasons for The Warden/Orlesian Warden return?
I don't really know. Bioware should present us an epic tale. But, what would be the reasons for the new journey? It's unquestionable that The Warden was one of the most important people of Thedas. He/she dealed with all sort of magic, enemies and obstacles. The Hero of Ferelden wasn't only a darkspawn fighter, but someone special. He/she dealed with the Blight almost alone(talking about other grey wardens) and in a real short period of time, the Blight was endend before it even really started! Not just that, he/she dealed with the Archtet too.
Now he/she could be dealing with something bigger, I mean, Corypheus is probably back, what if other magisters are coming back? What if an Old God is returning again? The Warden would be dealing with this, a short campaign on the Deep Roads or something like that. And why would he/she deal with that? Well, like Shepard from Mass Effect, The Warden could not be a hero in shiny armor, but he/she cares for Thedas, his/her reasons could be the people, or simply himself/herself. If he/she doesn't deal with the threat, who will?
The Character Customization
With the race, class and name of the hero already established with Dragon Age Keep, we would simply begin the new campaign with a question: "What did the Hero of Ferelden/Commander of the Grey look like?"
Bam! Character Creator, we would recreate the appearance of the main protagonist, due the circumstances of the new graphic engine. And not just that, in Mass Effect we could customize Shepard's appearance in each game again, why not the Warden too?
After the appearance creation we would need to answer a new question: "How did your hero used to fight?"
We could choose the way our Warden fought, like we'll do with the Inquisitor, I mean, if he was a rogue focused on bow and arrow or dual dagger, an warrior focused on sword and shield or two handed, even dual swords/daggers/axes. And then the specialization, three would be perfect, or maybe just two, I don't know. But certainly we would need more than one. And the most important thing, the return of the old specializations, like spirit warrior, ranger, blood mage and all that stuff.
That's it!
I spent some minutes typing all this stuff, so... Let's discuss it! Do you guys think it's a good idea? It would be AWESOME if someone from bioware comments here!
I would like to let it clear, I'm just a fan, a Dragon Age lover, and I love to imagine and create stories of my own. I don't have idea if all that I said before is difficult to apply to the game, specially to an expansion pack. Anyway, I give you my apologies. And again, english is not my native language, so I probably did some mistakes typing everything, forgive me.
Thanks Bioware for all those amazing games!
