Or the whole Howe family. Both Nathanial and his father were classified as rogues. There's plenty of precedent for it, especially in a religious family like the Human Noble here. Combat training may have to be done in secret, or they may have learned to take every advantage they can against those who oppose them.

 

As for a rogue not leading from the front. The best warrior is the best warrior, whether that person is a mage, a rogue, or whatever. They may not be leading from the front carrying a shield, but if the slay 100 people in an epic battle, does it really matter if they were using a shield or not?

 

You can spin it 20 different ways that are no less valid than any other race/class combo. They learned how to kill quickly to better the game of politics, they learned how to kill quickly to better protect people. They learned how to kill with whatever's not nailed down.

I read the thread title as "Bard specialization for the Inquisitor".

 

I got excited for a second.

 

Ironically I think this would have been the best specialization lore-wise. Andraste sang to the Maker. You're the Herald of Andraste and leader of an organization started by the Divine, who derives her authority from an entire book of Andraste's songs. Therefore, it would have made most sense to have a female human rogue bard inquisitor imo. Sadly, bard wasn't an option.

For my warrior, I went Champion.  Elven Rift Mage is a good one as well.

I picked DW assassin rogue.  Simply because I pictured the main character to be able to go invisible, then knock a guy out in a single hit.  Kind of like he was untouchable.

Warrior - Templar (Has representation within the game)

Mage - Rift Mage (Deals with the Rift)

Rogue - Assassin (Makes sense since you are often meeting with powerful leaders)

Rift mage makes sense, knight enchanter makes some sense, templar makes some sense, can't think of which rogue specilization would make sense.

My first character was a human rogue. There's no reason a noble can't be a rogue. I mean, if you want yours to the type who stumbles into responsibility that's cool, but it doesn't have to be like that.

 

 

My Trevelyan's a rogue as well. You'd think that nobles would go for that sort of thing, since if you're going to master personal combat, you'd might as well do it with style and in a manner that has the greatest chance of leaving the enemy dead before you scuff your boots, which is especially true of archery.

 

If you guys want to see a backstory I came up with for a newly created Trevelyan rogue, check this out:

 

Victoria Trevelyan - Assassin Rogue and Family Operative:

 

Victoria only cares about power and the advancement of her house. Who really knows why she was at the Conclave? Was it just to spy, or did she have other, more sinister orders? The Trevelyans have been pulling political strings behind the scenes for hundreds of years and have a very dark (and bloody) history. They could put the Antivans to shame. What will she do now that her original plans were interrupted and she’s had to resort to Plan B? She’s found herself in the most unlikely position, and now has the opportunity to shape the world as she sees fit.  

 

I tend to go all-out with my crazy backstories. I like to play drastically different personalities to keep things fresh.
