My preference by race:
Qunari- Reaver of any warrior weapon Qunari seem to naturally be reavers so lore wise the best. Followed by mage with rift being head followed by necro since your a hedge mage. Rogue is last but can work with headcanon.

Dwarf- Rogue is at the top lore wise but warrior can work. But since your a spy the assassin with trap making and tempst even. Champion works as a thug type only warrior lore wise i can favor templar is like getting high on your own supply and Reaver doesn't seem very spyish.

Elf-Hunter should be a better spy then the first and if you gonna send a spy to a meeting with a antimagic order present why would you send the mage under the keeper. And a warrior isn't as good of a spy as rogue. So Archer Trap Maker is the top followed by assassin archer. Then mage before warrior with Necro and rift at top.

Humans-Are pretty much all even. Chantry Templar or Mage support all make sense to be present in peace talks. For a Human Mage KE fits best lore wise followed by rift cause anchor and necro still fits if u wanna control spirits. Warrior or Archer are the better fit for human noble. Templar and Champion for warrior. Assassin and Trap making Archer for Rogue. Can't see a noble wanting to fight on fire at least lore wise with as little headcanon as possible. Dagger Rogue can work but the least and assassin at best.

Human Mage
Elven Mage
Dwarf Rogue
Qunari Mage

So I guess a lot of mages?

[Ashagar]

Human fighter Champion and Human Knight Enchanter... Nothing better for Champions of the faith standing against the corrupt and evil arrayed against you.

[The Ascendant]

A human mage. You get magic bonus plus you are nobility. Accessing the Fade makes more sense with a mage. The nobility makes it easier dealing with other humans.

I was going to say that it's fairly arbitrary, but after considering it, I'd have to say rogue given the various origins and the scenario of bolting through the doors to say, "Hey! What's going on here" and interrupt Coryphyfuss. Not sure how a mage especially would just be wandering about the Chantry's Conclave grounds without anyone detaining them, much less a warrior who isn't designated as part of the Conclave defense crew and particularly so far into the Conclave as the very room that the Divine was in. (I can presume that Cory killed everyone on his way in, but that's then a stretch.) A rogue's stealth is the only method of entry that makes perfect sense, and the origins all support this since the various factions essentially send you to investigate like a scout. And rogues all start with stealth. The only origin that doesn't support that as well is human, so I could see being a warrior templar for that, but I'd still have to come up with something head-canonwise to justify getting through the Conclave to that room, such as having been asked to join the Chantry guard for the event due to family connections.

 

Anything could be contrived, however. Maybe my qunari mage blasted his way in, not expecting Cory to get to the Divine first.

I wish they had an origins DLC for this. The metaphor of just being dumped out of a skyhole is unfortunate. As it stands, an elf or dwarf spy (rogue) or qunari merc make the easiest sense for me. It's interesting that everyone starts in merc armor without explanation. Might have been intentional story point by Bioware or just sloppy work.

Just want to point out that everyone arguing that an elven Inquisitor makes the most sense are actually arguing that an elven Inquisitor makes for a better story.

 

What race/class combo makes the most sense pertains to becomming the Inquisitor; the answer as far as race goes is obviously human given what the Inquisition is formed for. You could make an argument for any class given that a mage makes perfect sense for the conclave, but a warrior/rogue is still a noble and is more likely to be accepted by most members of the Inquisition. Elves may get better dialogue from the later part of the game and connect better to Solas, but that has nothing to do with forming the Inquisition and becomming Inquisitor. An elven mage could be at the conclave (along with that other reason from the Jaws of Hakkon DLC), but being an elf and a mage are two strikes in terms of Andrastian public opinion.

 

Anything outside of that or a human Inquisitor makes precisely 0 sense.

 

Making sense as Inquisitor and having the best story are two totally different things. That said, I just hated to see people making flawed arguments and I think everyone should play whatever combo gives you the most fun experience! It's not required to justify your choice beyond that in a game.

[ComedicSociopathy]

The one with magic...

 

So, pretty much anyone of them, really. 

[TheBeyond]

Honestly a Mage makes the most sense with the conclave ect but since I went a Mage DA:2 and Rogue DA:O its warrior for DA:I, but that's fine since I will just cower behind my shield and wave at them aimlessly with my sword.

[sjsharp2011]

For me Elven mage kind of makes the most sense given the story. Although personally I find playing any kind of mage fun in DAI. I find Rogue a lot of fun too but dosen't have the same link to the story as a mage does. Can't speak for Warrior as I've not played one yet.

[almasy87]

I love the human rogue class more than anything else.. but. 

For story reasons, I also agree with dalish mage. It's the one that makes more sense.

[aisyla]

Dalish mage(especially a rift mage who romanced Solas) and Human rogue(preferably dw). 

[SoSolaris]

I always thought a warrior Inquisitor looked the part pretty well. Purely aesthetically speaking. Any class will work obv, but when I watch the cutscenes with a warrior it just has that extra oomph for me.

[Carmen_Willow]

I think Qunari Inquisitior is pure nonsense. The idea of a Qunari who had never been introduced to the Qun is absurd. And a mage inquisitior is unlikely too because magic must serve men, not rule them. And a rogue being a lord is not a usual thing.

The Inquisitior gains the mark in the Conclave. There are human templars, elf mages and human mages. What is a Dwarf doing in the Conclave? I rule out the Dwarf option like Qunari. 

 

Human warrior is the best suitable option.

The Dwarf is there, selling dope to all the addicted Templars, of course. A good business woman goes where the market exists for her product. The fact that she gets caught up in this mess is pure coincidence, unless of course that you believe in a Maker who has his own inscrutable reasons for it. The idea that someone totally unsuitable to be the "Herald of Andraste" and yet is the "Herald" is rather ironic. I agree with you on the Tal-Vashoth thing however.

 

P.S. In terms of the story, however, female Dalish mage works best.

[Bleachrude]

Ace Bower's reasoning is really the only one that actually answers the OP.

[Cobra's_back]

Play all for fun. Human and elf seem to fit the story better. The build is whatever you want. Personally love playing rogue, but played two-handed, archer, dual daggers, KE mage and will play rift mage next.

Don't forget the pull of the abyss + fire mine combo.

 

 

Now, for human and elf, mage makes a lot of sense, though you can aways play an staunt andrastian warrior, or an dalish archer, that fits best with the profile of a hunter.

 

Qunari, I suppose warrior, since you are a member of a merc group, while dwarf as an dual wielding rogue, after all, you belong to a group of shady smugglers. It fits.

[Solace]

I agree with Ace Bower. The only two classes that make sense with the role of your inquisitor are human rogue and warrior.. As the inquisitor, you deal with people from different nations, social groups, and have people from different races under your charge. A noble is going to be trained in politics, warfare, and multiple styles of combat, so the human noble warrior/rogue is going to be better equipped to handle all these different variables surrounding him/her. 

 

I think without plot armor on, the elf and qunari versions of the classes, as well as the human mage, would be overwhelmed by being the leader of many peoples without some serious head canon.

Honestly, I think that since you have advisors who can handle that problem for the most part (with the exception of Wicked Eyes, Wicked Hearts, really), any class can "handle" nobility with very little training.

[Wahed89]

Rogue two handed has been my favourite way to play the game. I never play warrior. I played Mage first and the Mage powers are so dull and often ineffective, and you can't move while casting spells. Playing as an archer was also good, but got a little boring

[DarkAmaranth1966]

For me, any mage but, if the prologue were redone for other classes any would work.

 

As it is, the Inquisitor, no matter the class does not totally freak out over the anchor and, it is magic, surely he/she feels that. Any non mage would be alarmed and, very afraid of it yet, they show only the ability to learn to use it all too quickly. Only a mage would have the mindset and lack of fear needed to react that way.

[Bayonet Hipshot]

Class ? The Mage Master Race of course.

[Elite Fennec]

But why dalish mage? some people are saying this but is it not because it is the one you enjoy most from a story perspective and not necessarily that which makes most sense with the prologue etc.​

I disagree with this....only a dwarf I think would freak out over the magic. Quanari inquisitor was a mercenary, human is a noble that was heavily involved with the chantry and the elf is dalish that grew up around non-circle magic. All 3 of them can easily be written to be at the least, not scared by magic or have major interaction with magic.

 

In fact, as another poster pointed out, it doesn't really make sense that a mage can be wandering about in the innermost sanctum of the Divine...the origin story itself has holes since somehow the BBEG can get to the Divine in the inner sanctum (which quite frankly, should've been the most heavily defended place in Thedas at the time)

My guess is that Corypheus was inhabiting the body of Larius or Janeka still, and was leading the Grey Warden delegation to the Conclave, which is how he got inside. After that, all he'd need to do is ask for a meeting with the Divine, manifest, kill the guards, and then he'd be set. It's possible that the site was somewhere out of the way and that the PC entered the room because they found the dead guards.

For the first part, I think it would be more freaking out over HAVING magic than magic itself. I mean, Human Nobles who never had magic probably would be a little freaked out to suddenly have magical abilities.

 

For the second part: It does not really make sense for any character of any class to be wandering around the innermost sanctum at all.
