I started a new playthrough today! Took me a few trips through the CC before I settled on a face for my new Inky, Zidane Trevelyan. I'm not sure I even like that name, but there's no way he's going through the CC again! He'll be known as Trev anyway, so it's all good. Trev's a classy name, right? 
I keep looking at his face and thinking 'hmmm', but I always do that for an hour or two, before I decide I like them.
Big surprise, this guy is going to try and woo Cassandra!
He doesn't know that yet, of course. At the moment, Trev's feeling a little grumpy. He woke up in some dank dungeon, two Chantry officials came in and threatened him, and then he was marched off to close a hole in the sky. Trev's a smart guy. He knows who these two are, and he's going to do exactly what they say. After all, one's the Divine's personal 'problem solver' (and I'm not talking Sudoku) and the other is a Seeker - the order that makes templars wet themselves.
I'd forgotten how fragile mages are to start with! Trev spent more time hiding behind Cassandra falling back to a better position than he did actually fighting. They weren't alone for long, soon they were joined by a dwarf and elf. The elf is a bit too handsy. Trev's only just met the guy and now they're holding hands. He was quite pleased that Cassandra said "Unlike you, Solas is an apostate." It could be useful knowing an important Chantry person who recognises that he's a proper Circle mage.
They moved swiftly onto the breach, collecting as many items as possible. That included some plaideweave. The Maker will be a shiny blue druffalo before Trev wears that. 
The Pride demon was harder than I thought it would be with two barrier-casting mages. I guess I'm too used to an over-powered party? I kept forgetting to disrupt the rift too. We were getting thoroughly spanked by its lightning whip thing, even when we ran away. And it had the gall to keep laughing at us! Pride demon? Troll demon, more like!
Perhaps Trev passed out again, because when he awoke, he was in a strange bed, in a strange village, being watched by a strange elf. It turned out that a host of people were stood outside, waiting to salute him, make very audible comments on his performance at the breach, and generally ogle him. How long have these people been waiting here? No one was expecting him to wake up yet, right?
Trev headed up to the Chantry, to discover that Cassandra has done a complete switch and now thinks he's innocent. Well, no complaints here. Beheading didn't sound that appealing anyway. He'll have to play the 'disembodied voices' card more often! After shooing out that obstructive Chantry guy, Cass and Leliana declared the Inquisition formed. Cue dramatic music and cutscenes! 
Just one thing though... what is with this weird face? Trev, what are you doing, that's not how you make a good first impression. You look like an adult baby! 
"Mmm, I think I smell dinner!"
