Out of all the Inner Circle's greatest fears that were shown in the Fade, the only one we never seen is the Inquisitor. The question here is.... How many of you guys believed is the the Inquisitor's greatest fear?
I have no fear. Hence no gravestone.
-thread
I am the ****.
These two sum it up for my human warrior, Karis:
As a more serious answer, I really like the fear brought up in the Templar quest - that the Inquisitor would become corrupted by his power and use it to further his own ends, and basically becoming a tyrant. I think that was what my Inquisitor feared the most - power turning him into someone he doesn't want to be.
The Inquisitor's greatest fear for me?
"That he's not the Herald of Andraste."
Matched only by his other greatest fear.
"That he IS the Herald of Andraste."
She's a devout-but-increasingly-progressive Andrastian who wants to believe in Andraste's and the Maker's favor because the world desperately needs hope and so does she, but at the same time she fears it's the worst sort of blasphemous hubris. Add a touch of "How can anyone live up to THAT?" combined with general fear of the heavy consequences of failure (hello, end of the world as we know it), and you have a person who wrestles with faith a lot. Fun to roleplay, as a real-world atheist.
The dangers of corruption -- for one reason of another -- are constantly thrown in our face. Blind obedience, despair, lust for power, deluding yourself that you're acting for "the people" or "freedom" or "the greater good" ... so many ways to lose one's path, as have many other organizations and people. It's definitely a theme that any Inquisitor should strongly keep in mind. Karis is afraid of going down that path -- and if she doesn't, who says whoever picks up her legacy won't?
...sharks.
...that'd be mine, anyway.
lol can you imagine sharks just randomly attacking you in the fade.
Hey, spiders arent all that bad. We used to play with spiders as kids, putting two in a shoebox, then watch them tear each other apart. From where i come from, a 3 inch spider in every corner of the house is of normalcy. Most of them are pretty harmless though, mostly the brown ones.
As for my inquisitors greatest fear, losing the one he loves wold be for my trevelyan (so dramatic). failure for cadash and being overpowered for lavellan.
not wearing pj's in the keep is apparently everyones greatest fear or at least Biowares
Knowing that no matter how cool he becomes, he will never be Riordan-jumping-off-the-tower cool.
I think it really kind of depends on the race and possibly class of the inquisitor. I imagine a Dalish elf's greatest fear would be the irreversible loss of all Dalish lore or learning that it is all lies.
A female Dalish elf can potentially suffer that fear later in the game.
A mage might fear tranquility or Templars. A noble hero would fear corruption from power.
I really liked what someone said earlier about a mage Trevelyan fearing that they are distantly related to Corypheus, which is possible given their distant connection with the Pavus family I suppose.
Lets see I did post here already but it wasn't really a greatest fear thing more of me going on a tangent about the hell spawn known as house centipedes.
As for greatest fears like things that would turn up on the grave stones I think they would be.
Maura (my human female mage) Uselessness
Thalia (my dwarf female warrior) Loosing her family (which partially already came true for her since I weirdly like to make bad things happen to my characters)
Fenella (my elf female warrior) Her Past (Kind of lame but she is wanted for murder and all)
Thats about all I got so far for some of them.
Being remembered as the "Herald of Andraste". She's an elfy-elf, worships the Elvhen Gods, doesn't believe in the Maker, wants to restore the old ways etc. She's terrified her people will consider her a traitor who joined a human religion.
And after the end of the game, there's a pretty big fear that everything about her own culture is a lie...
That the Cake is indeed, a lie...
(Poor Sten)
Circles being dissolved for good and mages being allowed to do what ever they want.
For my Mage Qunari it was losing self-control of himself or his magic.
For my Rogue Noble it is becoming as greedy and grasping as her family.
For my Warrior Dwarf it is slipping to far into becoming a criminal.
For Nasir Cadash: Failure, seeing everyone he loves dying in front of him, becoming too consumed by his power and being corrupted by it.
Its spiders.
At one part in the Fade you get attacked by those little spider demons and the Inquisitor says something like "Why is it always spiders," and someone else in the party is confused and makes a remark about those demons having appeared in a different form for them.
All versions of the Inquisitor have arachnophobia apparently.
Pretty sure that was Hawke who said it.
hawke says spiders as well, but i think for story purposes the anchor shows what they actually are... which i guess is technically spiders.... frankly i thought it would be funny if varric saw a bunch of cassandras attacking him. hmmm... for my inquisitor... i really dont know of anything equivalent in thedas that he would really fear.... no, you know what, my inquisitor fears dagna... yes dagna, that annoying chipper personality just creeps him the hell out.
Can I cut off a piece of you and do things to it? That didn't sound better, did it?
Retour en haut
