Hey everyone I am having problems deciding whether to choose a mage or warrior as my canon inquisitor for story reasons. A mage seems fit to be the inquisitor because the breach is a form of magic and would therefore make sense to place a mage in charge of it. A warrior however seems more fit to lead an organization that was once run by those who became the first templars. I curious to see what your canon inquisitors are and why you chose them. (Story wise) Thank you all for your time!

I don't think class has huge bearing on anything. I had more special conversations as an elf since I could speak about my clan in some quests. I think the only time my mage was mentioned as a mage was really when solas said at the beginning it was a good thing cuz of the rifts. And in my cullen romance and his past with mages. Maybe other people noticed otherwise?

If you play a mage, when you are running Wicked games... quest, a warning appears saying something like "it's more difficult to gain court approval being a mage", I understood that you're not even a person for the Orlesian court. That was nice, I liked it.
I played a human mage, so I don't know what happens if you play a Dalish mage or a Qunari.

There are dialogue actions and banter that are only available for certain racial backgrounds like dwarves can comment how they believe in the stone, banter back and forth with varric on the surface ruins in the hissing wastes, comment how the carta group in the hinterlands weren't from his clan and other such things.

Class has zero impact on the story. You get minor dialogues here and there if you are a mage, and different companions have different comments about your specialization (and specializations depend on class), but there's way more racial stuff than class stuff in the game, so pick whatever you like most to play.

Non-human Inqusitors(mage or not) get even bigger hit to approval than human mages. As qunari I started at 25 approval. Human non-mage starts with 40. Human mage, iirc, starts with 30.

Go rogue with love for templars. Rogue cuz you're damage output is unmatched. Templars cuz, idk, I just like the backstory more.
This coming from someone who traditionally always plays mage and mage friendly cannons.

Yeah I want to ally with the templars in this game rather than the mages, which has never happened before. I love what they did with the templar order.

Well you could also be a mage who controls the templars. that's always fun.

If I remember correctly, as a Qunari Mage I started with Zero (0) approval, so... yeah.
But aside from that, not much impact.

I like being a Dalish mage. First a lot you can imagine for a backstory/fan fic. Second, who better to unite all of Thedas? An elf the humans come to respect, a mage all come to follow or admire. One that can win the support of rebel mage or templars. One that might have been a keeper of his clan but, now he's keeper to all of Thedas, even the Teviters will at least acknowledge a mage in such a position of power. He's an elf so, knows what it is to be misunderstood - Qunari can relate to that. He has the potential to unite all of Thedas.
