HOF - Played rogue & headcanon elf female mage.

HAWKE - Played rogue & headcanon warrior.

INQUISITOR - Played female human rogue (archer assassin) & headcanon female human rogue (archer assassin).

I'm curious if anyone else purposely made sure that the first trio of Dragon Age protagonists would be diverse in their classes. What did you decide and why?

 

No, mine turned out to be "Whoever's story seemed to resonate the most to me". 

 

My 'canon' Warden was a Surana female who romanced and remained by the side of Solo King Alistair.

 

My 'canon' Hawke was a sarcastic LadyHawke Rogue who romanced Isabela, put Bethany into the Grey Wardens.

 

My 'canon' Inquisitor was a Dalish mage who romanced Cullen and supported his getting off the Lyrium.

 

However, since I find red hair exquisitely beautiful, all three were redheads, with freckles so that's a 'sort of' theme. 

 

Of course I had others I enjoyed but those were my three favorites.

Yeah, I have a class, race and personality triumvirate.

 

My canon HoF is a male, aggressive dwarf noble warrior who romances Morrigan. To me it makes sense because they're the commander of Orzammar and so have experience with leading/killing darkspawn, plus have no experience topside which parallels the player's experience with Thedas, not to mention is makes the Harrowmont/Aeducan choice all the more juicy. He's got shite to do like saving the world, no time for the little people.

 

With Hawke I chose a female sarcastic rogue that romances Anders. Carver's a warrior, Bethany's a mage so a rogue fills the triumvirate, plus I enjoy Bethany being in the Circle which gives Hawke incentive to side with the mages. The romance makes the ending all the more bittersweet. Plus, the VO work for female Hawke is top notch. She deals with all the trauma through humour.

 

I chose a diplomatic female elf mage in Inquisition, all the better to have your heart ripped out by Solas. Although I like the idea of her being heartbroken and losing her faith due to the revelation in DAI about the elven pantheon and shacking up with Cullen after having her Vallasalin removed by Wolfy I haven't been able to have that happen in game. She just wants peace and love and dancing naked in the moonlight and making flowers bloom.

 

For DA4 I'd like a Qunari something something but then again a slave owning Magister who relies on them for blood magic seems dastardly and therefore a wonderful choice.

 

Why do all my romances involve mages. BECAUSE LOVE IS MAGIC, Y'ALL. *insert groans here*

 

P.S. I also have a male elven rogue that romances Dorian in DAI because have you seen my profile pic? That elf is damn fine

[TheyCallMeBunny]

My canon looks like this:

 

Warden - Female Elven Arcane Mage

Hawke - Female Human Force Mage

Inquisitor - Female Elven Archer Rogue

 

I would love to spice things up with a warrior, but I really dislike tanking and I strongly prefer to play ranged characters. In my second play through of DA:O I played a dual wield warrior, and I enjoyed it, although not as much as my mage play through. I never made a warrior in DA2 because it bored me to tears, but I'm currently playing a sword and shield warrior in DA:I. I really miss the dual wield for warriors, but I do think they improved the class since DA2.

 

If I could make one gameplay-wish going into DA4 it would be to bring the crossbow back to warriors (you hear me Varric, I will have Bianca someday!). As much as I like the dual wield warriors already have pointy weapons covered, so I feel the crossbow would bring more variation to the table. Of course, that would mean warriors have three different weapons while rogues have two and the poor mages only have their staff. Perhaps mages could also be given wands?

After a bit of experimenting and trying several origin stories I ended up with a male human rogue in DAO and stuck to the class for my primary characters in the other two games. There are two reasons for it, one is purely mechanical since I hate unopened chests (which luckily is not an issue in DAI since you always have NPCs with you were it matters) and the other is that the rogue in DAO is the more diplomatic of the classes with cunning being tied to diplomancy and I prefer to talk my way out of trouble. The class just stuck with later games. Mind you, I did finish the DAO and DA2 with all races and classes.

 

So I got:

- Male human duelist rogue romancing Morrigan*, getting Allistair and Elenora on the throne. He was a pragmatic honorable man who choose what was best for Feralden, but who really couldn't see anything dark about the sollution proposed by Morrigan.

- Male human duelist rogue romancing Merryl, feeling the strong urge to kill both the mages and the templars, idiots all of them, but after some internal debate picked the Templars with the hope to at least moderate their excesses. Again, mostly diplomatic with a strong streak of sarcasm were appropriate especially near the end of the game when he got more and more fed up with the whole mess.

- Male human archer rogue (not a big fan of melee based character in DAI, something about the controls did not work well for me) romancing Josephine. He was the honorable type who respected the Chantry, but had never given the stuff much attention. In other words, he started out a bit naive.

 

* Although the female clanless dwarf I used for my second playthrough is a very close second.

HoF - Male Human S&S Warrior - Was more diplomatic and heroic - romanced Morrigan with Ritual

CoK - Male Human Mage - sarcastic - romance Izzy while siding with Mages

HoA - Male Human Duel Dagger Rogue - aggressive(mainly picked the red fist option when I was able) pro-Chantry - romanced Cass with her as Divine

 

I liked how my romances also switched classes each game between each raven-haired female, Warrior-Mage, Mage-Rogue, and Rogue-Warrior. As well as my main bro party member was the blondie of similar classes, Alister, Anders, and Varric.

 

Next game Idk there are a few factors like if I want to restart the rotation I will be two handed warrior or if I want to go for if my heroes was in a party I would make a Archer. But if mages have a noble background in DA4 and if all schools of magic return then Mage it is.

I tend to do this in the Keep.. but I haven't played all of them.

 

Dalish Rogue

Fem Mage Hawke

Male Trev Warrior

 

Cousland Warrior

Rogue Hawke

Trev Mage

I try to make my PCs diverse, both my canon PCs for each game as well as my alts within a game.  But there are just some things that I really like so they get over represented.

 

Warden - male dwarf noble sword/shield warrior

Hawke - male human support spec mage

Inquisitor - male qunari two-handed warrior

 

If possible in DA4, I think I'm going to rotate back to dwarves (bleh elves) and try out a rogue -- not sure if he'll be ranged or dual wield; I'll decide that when I know a bit about the game.

I hope DA4 will be a strong City Elf game. Or Tevinter mage.. but somehow I'm more enticed by the elf (that's if the game doesn't suck in general). Especially if the cities are big.
