Calling it right now. Solas kills Inquisitor in Wolf Hunt DLC.

 

Believe it.

His/her organization became too important, too powerful to be set aside, make the next Dragon Age about the Inquisitor again, problem solved.

 

IMHO, the old rule "New Dragon Age, new protagonist" won't work very well next time, unless they give a proper conclusion to the Inquisition.

 

Not exactly, like others already said the Inquisitor doesn't have to be directly involved now especially if we're going North

 

Seeing Inquisition Agents would be more than enough

Unlike the Hero of Ferelden and Hawke, I don't think the Inquisitor can be relegated to the sidelines of Thedas' history.

 

 

Neither can Isabela....bring her back. :)

Nah.... he just needs the hand. He can make a key chain out of it and carry it around as a token of his undying love for Lavellan. What? He's a grey character remember. :D

The Inquisitor will die and his/her role will be fulfilled by the Requisition Officer.

I'd like to play at least one more major adventure with my Inquisitors because I've invested a fair bit of time in developing them, their relationship with the team and their power base.    I've finished the game with way more power than I currently need for the few loose ends that need tidying up, so there must surely be a use for it? 

 

I can see how they could side-line the Inquisitor if the next game is set in the north.   Whilst we have had some dealings with both Tevinter and the Qun, they have not been sufficient that the Inquisitor would feel confident just walking into their territory (much as I would like them to do so).     So what is more likely is that a new protagonist would be an agent of the Inquisition, getting orders from Skyhold and reporting to there via raven.   Thus you'd hear about what was happening back at base without the Inquisitor actually making an appearance.

 

That said, it would be disappointing if the Inquisitor wasn't involved in dealing with Solas in the future.  That would surely be something they would feel invested in because of the way things were left after the battle with Cory, particularly if they were in a romance with him.   To some extent the whole Cory story now feels like a prologue to something even bigger involving the ancient elves and probably their surviving gods, which would be appropriate for a high level character, so here's hoping.

I'd like to think that if they're addressing Solas in future, it has to be the Inquisitor that's involved. Why a new character? What's their motive? It wouldn't be very good story telling.

Unless of course it's Morrigan. I could totally live with that!! :D

Personally, I expect that Solas' unfinished business with the Inquisitor will be resolved in a DLC, but Solas will return in the future. He's going to be the new recurring element, like Flemeth was.

Personally, I think it would be wise for Bioware to have the Inquisitor remain the protagonist of future dragon age games. It makes things complicated if we jump protagonist every single game. Not to mention it would be an great disservice to anyone that romanced Solas to never be able to play as the Inquisitor again.

Joking aside, I wish BioWare would just provide these player characters, whether that's the Warden, Hawke or the Inquisitor some finality to their stories and those of their companions. That means having the Inquisitor finish off whatever plot they have going on with Solas. I don't want to have Solas dredged back up in some future game for some new Player Character to interact with. Solas has some level of relationship with the Inquisitor and Solas's story would likely play out most meaningfully with the player playing as the Inquisitor. Just as I'd rather other old companions like Morrigan or Leliana or Alistair not show up again in main plot roles unless they're directly interacting with their respective old Player Characters, like the Warden- someone who has that personal history with them. Shoving off old companions into main plot roles in future games where they're forced to interact with some new PC who has no personal ties to them simply makes those old companions feel more generic and it can diminish their personal character development they may have had with their old PC's.

Agree with all of this, just replace the romance with Leliana for me. Le sigh. :( Although to be fair, Leliana and Morrigan did fit well into the story on their own. But yes, it did add to the yearning for the Warden. If you want to change protagonist, then give their predecessor proper closure. It's all very well for Patrick Weekes to insist the HoF had a great ending, whatever player choice was - they did, until you dangled some vague quest that they're on to change their destiny and had their love interest get all nostalgic on us. :/

I thought they said the Anchor was a part of the Inquisitor and would not come off unless the Inquisitor is dead. That whole idea of him/her losing their ability would be a redundant idea just to nerf the Inquisitor's character.

 

Moreover, the happy funtime ball that originally gave the Inquisitor the Rift is shattered. The implication is that if it can be removed, the Mark can't be removed without the orb.

 

So it's very likely my Cadash has it for life. But hey, at least he'll have some interesting dreams in the Fade.

Well, it was Corypheus who stated that the Anchor couldn't be removed, after his attempt failed?

 

It's safe to say he doesn't know everything about the Anchor or how it works, since he's under the impression that the Orb is a Tevinter artefact, not a relic from Elvhenan. Only Solas, Abelas and other Ancient Elves are likely to have actually read the manual when it comes to stuff like the Orb, so I'd take Corypheus' assertion that it's "permanent" with a grain of salt?

In the Arbor Wild Codex entries from Calpernia and Samson, Corypheus seems to be aware that it's an elven artifact. Or at least, that it contains intimate knowledge of the elves and their ways. I imagine as a high priest he'd be privy to the juicy secrets about just how much Tevinter stole from Arlathan.

But yeah, it's probably permanent. As much as I love Solas, he wasn't keen to inspect the Inquisitor after the initial Breach solely out of the goodness of his heart. When he realized he couldn't retrieve the Anchor without killing her, he healed her. Perhaps with more power and more resources he could retrieve it. *shrug*

Corypheus's befuddlement at Haven is hilarious on a second viewing, though.  :lol:

"I knew I shouldn't have left the instruction manual behind!"

If the Inquisitor is the protagonist of the next game, then I am so done with this series. Nothing is worth playing 100+ hours with the king/Queen of boring.

Am I alone in thinking that having a gameplay mechanic where you could use the mark at will to enter the fade could be awesome? Complicated to fit into a game for sure, but awesome nonetheless.

"A crow did it"

"Do what?"

"Kill the Inquisitor."

"What?! How do you know?"

"Oh, it's a thing I heard, but knowing the crows, it's probably true."

And there you have the Zevran cameo for DA4.

My guess is that in the next game, The Inquisition/Inquisitor will probably stick around as a powerful ally the Hero needs to petition to help deal with whatever the next crisis is. Something like:

 

"Hey, I just saw this weird bald elf dude out in the middle of the forest. I think he's up to something dangerous. You know him?"

 

"Oh god. Was he babbling about the Fade and restoring the elves to their former glory?"

 

"Uh...yeah."

 

"*sigh* He's my ex. Alright, point the way."

So the Inquisitor will be the second Hero of Ferelden here from now on? As in people will constantly b*tch and moan about her/him and complain every single time dragon age-products not featuring the Inquisitor will be announced/released/talked about/pretty much anything you can do with Dragon age products?

Great, really. <_<

S/he can and will be relegated to the sidelines of the next game. Deal with it.

As much as I'd like some continuous type of character, I don't care for it to be the Inquisitor. If they disappear, fine with me. Pre-release, the Inquisition sounded cool, but it's turned out a lot goofier than I thought. I don't even know what the Inquisitor is supposed to be, beyond closing the Breach. After this story, it's just about being some random person who flexes their power on everybody, according to whatever concerns and whims they have. There's no main purpose common to all players. It's just about whatever you feel. I'd rather see a character like that die, and people in Thedas move on to living their own lives.

Nope, not alone. I love my Warden most, closely followed by Hawke. I...like my Inquisitor well enough. I'm not quite sure where the disconnect is either. :-/

The Inqusition is a Southern Thedas power, we are moving to North Thedas in the next game. We will likely see mook members of the Inqusition, but the Inqusitor themselves, no.

I think it's because we lack background on the Inquisitor. We are told they were a mercenary/a carta thug/ the Keeper's first, etc., but we never saw them interact with the people in their respective background. We did for the Warden and Hawke.

 

For me that's what's missing in the Inquisitor.

Hmm, you could be on to something there. Yes, I think that could be it. The character themselves wasn't bad, the dialogue choices were mostly good (except for "sooo Leliana, were you and Justinia banging, wink wink?" :s) so I think it's probably that alright.
