I've been torn between a human warrior and an elf rogue. I have co-canons- one is a DW Reaver Cousland, a 2H Reaver Hawke, and a 2H Reaver Trevelyan and the other is a DW Ranger Mahariel, DW Shadow Hawke, and a DW Tempest Lavellan. I was really set on my Trevelyan, but I think I might save her for my second playthrough, which tends to be a little more solid. She's supposed to be very politically savvy, and it won't do for her to be doing the "new game flail" all over the place. A Lavellan, however, is perfectly suited for such a thing, considering how outside the loop she'll be as a Dalish elf.
Even though I have been steadfast on being a female Qunari, I have been secretly thinking of doing a Dalish First... Uh First first. I mean First to the Keeper first, on my first playthrough. That was confusing. I'm probably still going with female Qunari mage, but it's not totally impossible that I might change my mind.
DAO: Human Warrior
DA2: Warrior
DAI: Human Warrior
...nope. Intending to play a Qunari Warrior on my second playthrough, though.

Main warden was a female mage, Secondary warden was a female warrior, main hawke was a male mage, secondary hawke was a female mage and third hawke was a female warrior(2hand).
First DA:I playthrough is going to be Female Human mage.
Second is going to be a Male human warrior
and third is going to be a Female elf rogue(probably archer).
Yep.
Originally I was intended on going Knight Enchanter. However after the reveal and seeing thier abilities I Changed my mind.
It just isn't what I was hoping for. I was hoping to ditch the staff/mage "clothing" and end up looking more like a warrior,w earing plate armor and using ai melee wepaon while having magical abilities that were tied into melee fighting.
Instead it ended up being a single melee ability that still forces you to hold a staff and attacks with a magical sword that simply disappears outside of the attack.
I was just hoping for more of a "jedi" and less of a "Wizard who occasionally hits someone with a magical melee attack."
So I have went back to the Reaver now.
My first character has always been female human mage and a female mage it will be again. My main idea was to make human female mage again but I have started to wonder as the female qunari mage also looks awesome. I really would want to make a qunari but the 50 point HP bonus from qunari does not sound that good when compared to the bonus skill point humans get, especially with mages where the spells are so important...
DAO: Human Female Warrior
DA2: BroHawke Rogue (master of sarcasm)
DAI: Dwarf Female Rogue (my second DAO playthrough was a female dwarf and I loved it).
I might roll with female Elf or Human mage though, depending on my mood in the last few hours until unlock.
Originally canon playthrough was going to be as a fem qunari but changed it to fem elf when Cullen got race gated. Honestly I'm not even a Cullen fangirl but I wanted Cullen as my romance option on my canon cos my warden was a mage. It fits with some of my headcanons. So I changed it for story reasons and not so much gameplay reasons.
I'm still undecided between Dalish/Human and has for class, I usually role mage first, but I'm starting to think that Warrior might be cooler.
Seems like I'm going to try all 3 classes first.
Nope I will play human warrior first. The debate for me is male or female first. Flipping a coin maybe involved.
In Origins, I started as a human female rogue.
In DA2, I was a female mage, with the Humorous personality.
As for Inquisition, I'm waffling a bit now...
My first instinct (and probably still my strongest) was to play as a human female mage. I've been really invested in the mage/templar conflict, and I like the idea of playing a character whose world has been changed not just by the Breach but by getting out of their Circle.
But I'm also interested in playing a female elf mage now, because a) elf rebellion and b ) to be honest, in order to romance Solas because I think he'll have a really interesting perspective on magic and I wonder how much more I'll get to share in that as a romance vs a friend.
In DAO, I tended to be a dalish rogue.
In DA2 I also tended to be a rogue.
For Inquisition, I was originally going to go for a male qunari rogue but I decided to instead test the waters and go with a female human warrior.
I'm in this same boat. I played DAO and DA2 as a female human mage, I did this because it one they were arguably the most powerful and in two they still were very powerful and were the most interesting to the story line. This time around I don't know. They made all the classes and especially the subclasses very interesting. The video Bioware put out over the weekend showing off the sub classes made my choice even harder. I still have no clue what I'm going to play.
Male Elf Mage Knight Enchanter. Seriously, it's the best setup ever! The most looked down upon race in Thedas, being hated for being a mage, and you're the inquisitor. It's brilliant!
I've always been a Mage built as a Healer -- but since the world of Thedas hates Healers now and won't let Mages cast a Heal spell I guess I'll have to role-play as a 'Barrierer'.
Yep, just made that up...Barrierer doesn't roll off the tongue like Healer, but there ya go.
If I can piece together enough support spells to go with the 'Resurgence' ability I might be able to drag my companions across the finish-line after all.
You don't call mages who use fire spells Firerers, you call them Elementalists.
Barriers could be discipline enchanters (priests in World of Warcraft), conjurers, whatever really.

Surely they should be Pyromancers? "Elementalist" is too general.
Sort of...
DAO: City Elf Warrior ---> wich become a Human Mage (when I learned about the Amell tie between the 2 games)

DAI: Qunari Mage

Exactly this.
Yep, I tend to start with a warrior type as a baseline experience in games like this, but the Knight Enchanter looks too much fun to wait for, so I'm going straight to mage.
I still haven't decided actually. I'm almost certainly going to play human who resembles me, and I'm nearly positive I'll be rogue if I'm human and warrior if I'm qunari, but I don't know that this is set in stone.
DAO: Human male Mage, gets the job done but isn't a total dick. Morrigan
DA2: female Mage Hawke, humorous. Isabela
DAI: Human/Female/combat-specced Mage with an eye for Cassandra.
