Aww, dumb... Varric's so boring in Inquisition lol

They are all boring in Inquisition

 

 

Lace Harding.

 

Calpernia.

 

Adorno Ciel Ontranto. 

 

Dorian Pavus. 

 

Gatt.

 

Sera.

 

Take your pick from one of them. 

Gatt?

 

Awesome Companion idea

[almasy87]

Please, no more Varric. I like him, but that's enough and it wouldn't be fair to the other companions if he's the only one who keeps re-appearing.

Please, Maker please, not Sera. I can't stand her.   

Dorian, now that would be awesome.

Harding? Really? Don't care much for her plus it would make no sense.. just fan service.

Cass/Viv/Cole would also be cool, specially Cole or Cass.. but I doubt that

And Morrigan.. I'm sure she will be there again.. but as NPC. Don't think they would make her playable again.. she would be too old .. /jk

 

[Dieb]

Calpernia I bet. She seems to have a lot of fans.

 

Oh yeah, except each and every one playing on the Xbox One.

 

Us, we like to call whatever a "Calpernia" is "Schroedinger's villian". You can never know what's behind the loading screen!

[ComedicSociopathy]

I'm gonna say its Cole or maybe Calpernia. 

[MoonDrummer]

I would like Cole

[Heimdall]

Dorian's a strong possibility. I doubt it would be someone optional. Varric might happen, but I doubt they'd carry him over yet again.

[ComedicSociopathy]

They've never had a romance option be the carry-over companion, so I doubt it's either going to be Dorian or Sera. Vivienne can possibly be Divine so she's probably not going to be the one either. 

[Miss Quisitor]

Hey...why just 1? Bring back Sera and Harding....two birds in the bush is better than 1 bird in the hand. Wait...is that right?   

[daveliam]

This is the right way to approach this, I think. 

 

So we start with:  Cassandra, Solas, Varric, Vivienne, Sera, Blackwall, Bull, Dorian, and Cole

 

I doubt that they will bring back a romance option.  Too many people are going to be miffed that their LI isn't with the Inquisitor (assuming a new PC).  They especially won't be bringing back Dorian, Sera, or Bull because that would mean that there would be even more LGBT companions in the next game than in this game (returning companion + new options) and I suspect people's head will explode because of 'teh agenda'.

 

So now we have: Varric, Vivienne, and Cole; Cassandra, Solas, Sera, Blackwall, Bull, Dorian

 

Vivienne is also a no-go because she can potentially be Divine, so there's no way that she's going to come back.

 

So now we have:  Varric and Cole; Cassandra, Solas, Sera, Blackwall, Bull, Dorian, Vivienne

 

These are the two where it wouldn't be overly complicated to bring them back.  But Varric's already been back twice and we've gotten some good closure on his storyline, so I think it's time to retire him.  I honestly can't see him coming back.

 

So that leaves us with:  Cole; Cassandra, Solas, Sera, Blackwall, Bull, Dorian, Vivienne, Varric

 

Now, I'm fully in the camp of people who think that it's not actually going to be a returning companion, but a returning semi-significant NPC.  My money is 100% on Harding making the return.  She's a fan favorite; she's a capable ranged rogue; she's a possible bisexual romance option (giving us our first dwarf romance); and she's easy to fit into any upcoming story.  It's as simple as a cutscene where the new PC is told, "The Inquisitor is indisposed of with his/her other duties, but s/he wants to show you support.  Please accept the services of this agent as his/her token of support."  <cue Harding>

[TK514]

If we go north, it'll be Dorian.  Even though he's a possible LI for the Inquisitor, he's too closely tied to any Tevinter shenanigans to disregard.

[Derrame]

Maybe not a companion, but the inquisitor

[daveliam]

If we go north, it'll be Dorian.  Even though he's a possible LI for the Inquisitor, he's too closely tied to any Tevinter shenanigans to disregard.

 

But he doesn't need to be a companion to be tied into the shenanigans (great word).  He can be a prominent NPC.  I'm sure he'll be showing up in some capacity if we go to Tevinter, but I just can't see him coming back as a companion.

 

Plus, I think that his role (idealistic, reform-minded Magister) is going to be played by Maevaris.  Gaider has already stated that he loves her character and wanted to fit her into DA: I, but she was created too late in the process.  I have a feeling that she'll be our "good Tevinter" mage companion if we go up there.  And, since they've already established that Dorian and Mae are allies, that's a great way to include a Dorian cameo and introduce Mae.

[TevinterSupremacist]

I never liked the carry-over idea, with the exception of Oghren, but her was from a game to its expansion, not to a new game altogether.

New companions.

Fresh companions.

To match better with a game set in Tevinter and demanding wider range of companion morals....

A cameo for Dorian and having Mae as a companion would be nice. 

 

That said though, I can only just imagine the the forum implosion that would occur with having a transsexual party member.

 

It would be biblical. 

[This is the End My Friend]

Hopefully no one but I guess I'd go with Dorian because he's a Vint.

Yeah, that would be pretty fun. 

[Mims]

Not counting side characters, since it seems legitimately possible that we'll see Scout Harding again:
 

Cole. He's such an easy exposition character, and we likely haven't seen his full character arch yet. I won't be surprised if we see him in the party again. 

[Lawrence0294]

I hope Calpernia, she was really interesting, and seeing we might go to Tevinter next. Also I read that the writers really liked her as well so that might up her chances.

Signs do seem to point to Varric as well but I really hope that won't be the case. I like him, but having him as a companion for three games in a row would be far too much. It would feel very much forced.

[sandalisthemaker]

As far as companions go, I think that Dorian has a good chance of appearing again. If not as a companion, then as an important NPC since Tevinter seems like a good possible location for the next game.

 

In regards to minor NPCs promoted to companion status, all I know is that I definitely do *NOT* want to see Bianca anywhere near the companion roster. 

[Snook]

Might not be one. I'd be fine with this.

Going north kinda feels like moving on from Southern Thedas and all it entails.

I hope to see Calpernia again, though. Because she'd make sense.

[Wulfram]

I'd rather not have one.  Returning major characters have not been very good in Dragon Age, as a rule.

 

Would be different if we kept the Inquisitor, but we don't really have much reason to think we will.

 

I doubt that they will bring back a romance option.  Too many people are going to be miffed that their LI isn't with the Inquisitor (assuming a new PC).  They especially won't be bringing back Dorian, Sera, or Bull because that would mean that there would be even more LGBT companions in the next game than in this game (returning companion + new options) and I suspect people's head will explode because of 'teh agenda'.

 

They brought back Leliana, despite being an LI + LGBT

[Sable Rhapsody]

*roots for Dorian*  I love Varric, but I've managed to make his life a living hell in both DA2 and DA:I now.  Dude needs a break.

 

I want to run around Tevinter with Dorian, Maevaris Tilani, and Calpernia.  Together we shall be the Fabulous Mage Four, bringing reform and change to Tevinter while being spectacularly fashionable.

So if no Inquisitor...what will we have? A new Hero, again to save the world?

[franciscoamell]

I think it will be Varric again. We haven't resolved either the Bianca storyline or the Red Lyrium, so unless it's resolved via DLC I think he'll be back. Also, Brian Bloom voices the DA Keep. LI's don't return so unless they change that it's basically Viv or Cole. Viv has the possibility of being Divine, so she's probably a no-go, and Cole has two completely seperate paths which would also be difficult to implement.
So... Yeah, we'll probably be seeing Varric again.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

 

 

I hope it's Sera personally. :3 Solas should play a big part again but not a companion. Cole would be nice too.

[WildSky214]

Yes. The creators have already stated that there will not be carry-over protags. Awakenings doesn't count.

And the new protag doesn't necessarily have to save the world, Hawke sure didn't.
