What would be your dream DA:I DLC? *SPOILERS*

What would your dream DLC include? New followers and characters? New regions and locations? New stories and quests? Think logically what would be reasonable to expect from a DLC, and even propose the price you'd imagine would be appropriate.
My dream DLC would include:
- a new male (probably non-romancable) Rift Mage to replace Solas, many party setups would have relied on his skills. Maybe it would be best if the new character is a fellow Apostate Mage, but a human instead of an elf (to avoid confusion with Solas). An already existing character who might fit this role is Rhys from Dragon Age: Assunder, but I'd personally prefer a new character.
- a new region: Denerim. A Val Royeaux sized map in eastern Ferelden, a quest hub (much like the Val Royeaux map) and possibly a way to include King Alistair and/or Queen Anora into the game and story.
- a new region: Nevarra. An open world region, North-East of Val Royeaux on the world map, and could be considered in Orlais for the convenience of the war table. The region could include the town of Cumberland. This region could bring plot lines about the royal succession in Nevarra after old King Markus (probably) dies and maybe about the Necromancy of the Mortalitasi. These quests could have two slightly different versions, one where Cassandra is Divine and one where she isn't, as I'd assume she'd heavily feature in the plot. Maybe there could be two medium sized regions or one large one, depending on how much content they would want to include. I'd like these regions to give us 2 more extremely tough Dragons to fight, appropriate with the Navarran/Pantaghast tradition of Dragon Slaying.
- new main story quest: Searching for Solas. A series of War Table and in game missions, using Leliana as an Important NPC because she's the spymaster, where the Inquistion desperately tries to locate Solas. Depending on whether you romanced him, had a good relationship or bad relationship the motivation for your search can be different. But also the inquisition wants to locate and contain/destroy the remnants of Solas'/Corypheus' Orb to stop anyone fixing it and using it nefariously again. Whether or not we eventually find him... I don't know what I'd prefer...
- new main story quest: Cleaning up the remainders of Corypheus' army: Venatori, Red Templars and Freemen of the Dales. With the help of the Ferelden King/Queen and the Orlesian Emperor/Emperess. This could involve hunting down the surviving generals of Corypheus' army, sieging a stronghold and making moral choices.
- new inner circle quests: I'd like one decent length inner circle quest for each character, and they shouldn't rely on all previous quests (fetch quests) being complete for them to become available, accept if a previous quest has changed something about the character (like the Cole and Iron Bull quests). Make the content appropriate in a post Corypheus world and prove the character's worth to the Inquisition now that Corypheus is defeated.
- and finally a couple of side quests added into the already existing regions, just to add more content to the end game world.
- price: $25-30 is something I'd happily pay if this content gives me another 20-25 hours (with exploring and side questing).

Post game DLC, that introduces the mission to attack Corypheus's main base of Operations and destroy the remnants of the Venatori.
Head to The Sea of Ash and the Orlesian city of Mont-de-glace where the suspected remnants are to find a large deal of Venatori activity, help the displaced Orlesians take back their home only to eventually find Corypheus's main base, Then after informing the Orlesian Throne of your discovery lead a joint operation with the Orlesian Monarch to lay siege to the Venatori main base and wipe them out in the region.
New Companion, Michael de Chevin Champion Chevalier of the Orlesian millitary sent with you by the Emperor/Empress to help with your initial investigations and then the one to lead the Orlesian forces in your assault.
Have A Cameo from Celene/Gaspard during the dlc.

That was sort of what I intended with the 'Cleaning up the remainders of Corypheus' army' quest I mentioned in the main post. What you said would be great, but Michel de Chevin is already an Inquisition Agent if you defeat Imshael and he then hangs around Skyhold... Wouldn't work as a new follower. But if the Orlesian Emperor/Emperess does send a commander to be a follower then that could be awesome!

This will sound so petty and superficial, but I want a dlc pack with a bunch of new hairstyles and armor designs.

More Sera.
So, maybe additional quests for companions?

Wolf Hunt needs to happen too, of course.

Content that is 20-25 hours longer would qualify as an expansion, and I've heard there will be none.
I would have liked some content relating to Lavellan's clan, but that is race-specific so that won't happen. Why do I foresee a possible rendition of Witch Hunt with Solas replacing Morrigan. Will Lavellan go with him through an eluvian?

This one of course:

On a more serious note, Solasmancers deserve some closure before next game, so yeah Egg Hunt.
And if they find a way to make a HoF DLC with some dignity that would be just perfect.

Really? Expansions would be perfect! It would allow the developers to make more content available without having to make a whole knew game... They have the combat mechanics and all these in game assets available to use, they'd only have to make more content with them. Personally I think they should have a plan to give us 2 expansions a year for the foreseeable future, maybe 15-20 hours each. The amount of time and effort needed by the developers would be drastically less than if they delivered all this content over several game titles. If the quality stays consistent and the story continues then I'd happily pay for all of them. And then in 4-5 years, once the game becomes sufficiently dated, then they could release DA4.
For the sake of this post I was hyperthetically talking about a 'dream' DLC, and personally for me that would be a 20-25 hour expansion. The best DLC I've played in a recent game was BioShock Infinite: Burial at Sea episodes 1 and 2, it nearly doubled the length of the game (an additional 10-15 hours probably) and it still officially qualifies as DLC.

Wolf Hunt. Mostly because I don't want "Fen'Harel" to be pulled into DA4 and have his "Solas" arc concluded outside of the Inquisition. Regardless if you romance him or not, a lot of the context surrounding his character and understanding his possible motivations (as much as he obfuscated) is DAI specific. Fen'Harel can be used in DA4 or beyond - but Solas is DAI property and we should get some resolution with that, IMO.
I also wouldn't mind something to do with Nevarra, considering Cassandra is a direct link to the royal line and our Quizzie's could become mortalitasi. ...mostly I just want some creepy levels dealing with spirits and the undead, so yea.

Not so much a DLC but I'd really really like if they added more to the final battle. Something more akin to the Battle of Denerim in DA:O where you take control of the party members you didn't take to fight Cory and defend Skyhold from demons swarming out of the breach.
And the necessary "witch hunt" dlc for Solas, we need some more closure on that solasmance or no.

I will be very disappointed if "Wolf Hunt" is not a DLC. I do not care if it is the last DLC for Inquisition like "Witch Hunt" was for Origins as long as it happens.

Part of me really wants more meat on the half-complete (at best) bones of the main plot, but another part hates the idea of paying extra for what should have been there all along. More of Corypheus' background as well as his hideout, more on the orb, more on our Anchor and exploring its powers instead of them just appearing when the plot thinks it's convenient. Skyhold under siege by his forces. A final battle that actually makes some sense instead of feeling like they said "Crap, we're almost out of time/money, let's cobble together some random unexplained BS, that'll be fine as look as it looks cool". More interactions with the Chantry instead of having that issue fall off the map after the trip to Val Royeaux. A deeper exploration of the "faith" theme and how it's expressed in various characters, for good or ill.
But all that is just wishful thinking. For something more realistic, my #1 wish is definitely more companion-related content, preferably something in which they show some interest in us and our well-being for a change, not just strictly the other way round.
@esh1996: Yeah, it's a shame they don't want to do big expansions. This game and its plot hooks don't feel "done" yet, and I'm not keen on moving on and seeing it all becoming nothing but a footnote or shoddy cameo in the next title. It's quite different from Origins, which felt much more "complete" to me.

Chasing down Solas while being able to have downtime in a new region to hang out with your Inner Circle, actually play wicked grace, and have a combat arena. I guess, in other words, Citadel. ![]()
