Lady Lavellan, a knight enchanter, leader of the sneaky Inquisition, doesn't believe in the Herald business. (major story choices) -Conscripted Templars (I was going to save mages next, but they ran from Redcliffe!) -Became Inquisitor to restore order to Thedas -Celene and Briala rule Orlais -Wardens exiled from south (Corypheus could control them after all) -Convinced Calpernia to stand down -Drank from the Well -Cassandra is Divine Victoria -Disbanded Inquisition -Declared she would redeem Solas -Became a Red Jenny (companions) -Single (I did flirt with Harding, but she does not count as romance apparently) -Friends with everyone  -Dorian didn't reconcile with his father -Blackwall freed and embraced his real identity -Bull's Chargers are alive and well, The Iron Bull is Tal-Vashoth -Cassandra decided to rebuild Seekers -Encouraged Cole to be more human -Freed Solas's spirit friend, killed mages -Gave Viviene heart she asked for -Cullen freed from addiction -Leliana softened -Josie saved from the assassination plot Notes: This was the first playthrough I actually finished Inquisition with (took me about 36 attempts ), and I really liked how it all turned out. The only thing I would possibly change is to romance Solas, but I haven't been quite prepared for that heartbreak yet, so single for now. |

My male Elf Inquisitor, whom I headcanon to have left the Dalish when he was still quite young, as such he doesn't have much respect or interest in them. He's a mage - a necromancer - and as an obsession with both spirits and the undead because of it. He's pretty strictly an atheist and absolutely would've run away from the Inquisition if he had a choice early on. He goes on the romance Cassandra.
Major Story Choices:
- Allied with Mages
- Founded the Inquisition because there was no option to run the other way (I don't remember my exact choice)
- Kept the Wardens; left Hawke in the Fade (Alistair is with the Wardens)
- Briala rules through Gaspard
- Drank from the Well of Sorrows (He didn't trust Morrigan enough to let her have that kind of power, but he's not particularly happy to have it either)
- Softened Leliana as Divine
- Disbanded the Inquisition
Companion Choices:
- Blackwall is pardoned
- Cole is more human
- The Chargers (and therefore Bull) are alive
- Cullen dropped lyrium
- Killed the assassins after Josephine
- Sera stayed with the Inquisition; Inquisitor became a Red Jenny after Trespasser
- Dorian reconciled with his father
- Vivienne got the white wyvern's heart
- Cassandra is rebuilding the Seekers
- Did Solas' personal quest; threatened him at the end of Trespasser

Given that I have several world states in the keep, I don't feel like I have a One True Inquisitor. It's a guarantee that I'll be bringing several forward. That said, I have two favorites. Danae Lavellan
Class: Mage (Knight-Enchanter)
Romance: Cullen
The Wrath of Heaven: Fully cooperated with Cassandra. She chose the mountain path, hoping to find the lost squad of soldiers. Denied being chosen by Andraste.
In Hushed Whispers: Formed an alliance with the mages.
In Your Heart Shall Burn: Managed to help Harritt and rescued all the townspeople. Her conversation with Mother Giselle confirms her non-belief, at least until she learns of Ameridan and begins to emulate him.
'I will lead us against Corypheus and I will be an ambassador. I'm an elf standing for Thedas. The Inquisition is for all.'
Here Lies the Abyss: Recruited Jana. Cleared all the siege points at the battlements, had Hawke protect the troops and thus stay behind to hold the battlements. Convinced some of the Grey Wardens not to fight. Completed all five riddles in the Fears of the Dreamers quest. Decided that Stroud would be the one to remain in the Fade, and had the Wardens join the Inquisition.
Wicked Eyes and Wicked Hearts: She had Florianne arrested at the conclusion, sparing everyone further bloodshed. Celene and Briala were reunited. Gaspard was executed.
What Pride Had Wrought: All the temple rituals were performed and an alliance with Abelas was accepted. Morrigan drank from the Well of Sorrows. (Danae came close to drinking it herself, but Morrigan persuaded her out of it by reminding her that as Inquisitor, she couldn't afford to take that risk.)
The Final Piece: Flemeth encounter happens in the Fade, and Danae responded positively/politely to her.
Leliana was supported as Divine.
Inner Circle (Only listing those with any real decision to be made, though it can be assumed she has completed all others.)
Promise of Destruction: Encouraged Cassandra to rebuild the Seekers.
All New, Faded for Her: Freed the spirit, got Solas to stand down and not murder the mages responsible for the binding.
The Verchiel March: Harmond was made to work for the Inquisition, though Danae supported Sera back at Skyhold.
Revelations: Ordered the advisors to find a way to release Blackwall, decided on Josephine's method (a special dispensation from the Orlesian throne), allowing Blackwall to be transferred to Inquisition custody. Her Skyhold judgment was to free Blackwall to atone for his crime.
Demands of the Qun: Told Iron Bull to order his men to retreat, betraying the Ben-Hassrath and making him Tal-Vashoth, but saving the Chargers.
The Forgotten Boy: Told Cole to give the suffering man a chance, and then recruited him.
Subjected to His Will: Allowed Varric to help Cole work through his anger, becoming more human as a result.
Last Resort of Good Men: She told Dorian about the letter, and encouraged him to speak with his father in Redcliffe.
Of Somewhat Fallen Fortune: Spared the assassin in Val Royeaux. She agreed to Josephine's request to help restore the Du Paraquettes as nobles in order to annul the contract with the House of Repose.
Perseverance: She encouraged Cullen to keep fighting his addiction, turning him back toward recovery.
Before the Dawn: (Raided the quarry/reclaimed Emprise du Lion beforehand.) Completed, used Dagna's rune to destroy Samson's armor in the Arbor Wilds. Insisted on Maddox being given a funeral.
The Left Hand of the Divine: She was able to convince Leliana not to kill Sister Natalie.
Bring Me the Heart of Snow White: Brought Vivienne the specific wyvern heart requested.
Jaws of Hakkon
Discovered and met Ameridan
The dragon was slain
Earned a legend-mark from the Avvar
Shared the truth
Trespasser
Married Cullen, with Dalish vows.
Joined the Friends of Red Jenny.
Freed the dragon.
Vowed to redeem Solas, if at all possible.
Disbands the Inquisition.
Due to completing Contact Clan Lavellan using Josephine, Protect Clan Lavellan and the subsequent mission chain came into play after reaching Skyhold. Matters were resolved in Protect Clan Lavellan and Wycome, and Clan Lavellan was saved.
All companion-related missions (such as Red Jenny stuff, Hard in Hightown) completed.
Skyhold judgments
Was largely merciful in her judgments, Erimond and his execution being the exception.
Inquistion focus: Connections
Its web of influence is felt in every hall. Through diplomacy and the trading of favors, it has gathered the power to shake kingdoms.
Korrin Adaar
Class: Mage (Rift Mage)
Romance: Josephine
The Wrath of Heaven: She chose to charge with the soldiers, believing there was no time for anything else. Denied being chosen by Andraste.
In Hushed Whispers: She chose to form an alliance with the mages.
In Your Heart Shall Burn: Managed to help Harritt and rescued all the townspeople. She also confirmed her belief in a conversation with Mother Giselle, though expressed disappointment in its extremes. ("Fanatical belief is to blame.")
"With fear running rampant, they need to see a mage standing for what is right."
Here Lies the Abyss: Recruited Jana as an agent, Stroud was the Grey Warden contact. Cleared all the siege points at the battlements, had Hawke join the party to help them cut a path to Clarel. Convinced some of the Grey Wardens not to fight. Decided that Hawke would be the one to remain in the Fade, and had the Wardens join the Inquisition.
Wicked Eyes and Wicked Hearts: Fought and killed Florianne at the conclusion. Celene was supported and saved, reunited with Briala. (Alt. Allowed Celene to be assassinated, Gaspard rules with Briala pulling the strings.)
What Pride Had Wrought: Did not do the rituals at the temple. Morrigan drank from the Well of Sorrows. (Korrin would have destroyed it, but was persuaded out of doing so.)
The Final Piece: Flemeth encounter happens in the Fade.
Leliana was supported as Divine.
Promise of Destruction: Left the fate of the Seekers up to Cassandra.
All New, Faded for Her: Freed the spirit, allowed Solas to kill the mages responsible for the binding.
The Verchiel March: Allowed Sera to kill Lord Harmond, supported her back at Skyhold.
Revelations: Ordered the advisors to find a way to release Blackwall, went with Josephine's method (a special dispensation from the Orlesian throne), allowing Blackwall to be transferred to Inquisition custody. Her Skyhold judgment was to give him over to the Grey Wardens after the defeat of Corypheus.
Demands of the Qun: Told Iron Bull to order his men to retreat, betraying the Ben-Hassrath and making him Tal-Vashoth, but saving the Chargers.
The Forgotten Boy: Allowed Cole to end the wounded's suffering, and then recruited him.
Subjected to His Will: Allowed Varric to help Cole work through his anger, becoming more human as a result.
Last Resort of Good Men: She told Dorian about the letter, did not encourage him to reconcile with his father.
Bring Me the Heart of Snow White: Brought Vivienne the specific wyvern heart requested.
Of Somewhat Fallen Fortune: The assassin in Val Royeaux is spared (only because she feared Josephine getting hurt in the fallout). She sent Leliana's agents to the House of Repose to destroy the original contract against Josephine's family.
Perseverance: She encouraged Cullen to keep fighting his addiction, turning him back toward recovery.
Before the Dawn:(Raided the quarry/reclaimed Emprise du Lion beforehand.) Completed, used Dagna's rune to destroy Samson's armor in the Arbor Wilds. Insisted on Maddox being given a funeral.
The Left Hand of the Divine: Leliana was steeled. (Korrin couldn't stop her from killing Sister Natalie.)
Skyhold judgments
Was more of a recruiting judge, putting people to use.
Trespasser
Joined the Friends of Red Jenny
Vowed to stop Solas, even if it means killing him
Saved the dragon
Keeps the Inquisition as Divine Victoria's personal guard/peacekeeping force.
Inquisition focus: Forces
Its military might has grown, now rivaling that of kingdoms. Fear of the Inquisition's army has become the true source of its power.Yeah I don't really either I just treat whatever playthrough I have on the go at that time as my canon one. So fo example if the game came tomorrow it's not I know that I'm just using this as an example then my current warden would be the warden I'd carry through and the same would go for my next Hawke and Inquisitor.

Lavellan, because *to me* DAI is an elven game. It would feel wrong not to have the canon Inquisitor be someone who has a reason to care about all these revelations.

always play as human male ( just as in ME ).
Last time , with a mod he romanced Cullen, which is hilarious because in the cutscenes he goes from bro style to super campy .
Whether as Archer , Mage or two swords warrior is undecided.
Decisions have changed on just about every playthrough but i tend to keep everybody , save Celene ( and when possible i send Florianne to forced labor, how drole)
I prefer disbanding the Inquisition as advised by Leliana , and have mixed feelings about Solas who totally used everyone but had a quest way beyond our understanding.
Anyone can become Divine as far as i care though i have not tried Vivienne while playing a Mage. What's her attitude post Trespasser is i disband or if i keep the Inquisition.
Anyway, who knows how all that stuff will impact DA4.

OK I'll bite.
Kara Trevelyan:
Race-Human (probably a no brainer)
Class- Rogue/Archer/Assassin
Gender- Female.
Personality: Tends to be a bit on the sarcastic side but mildly so when dealing with people. Otherwise has a fair mix of options no matter what the situation calls for. Can be aggressive when she needs to be and is a 'woman of practical action' often doing the machivellian thing if she needs to. Chaotic Good. Distrusts nobility and her own power but also sees little choice in exercising it at present. Has gotten over her issues with the Chantry/ Andrastians. Tends to cast a wide net in recruiting efforts.
Founding principle: Stop Corypheus.
Long term objectives: Reform Thedas quietly to make it a more peaceful/ just/ free society.
Big decisions:
Disabanded the Templars
Allied with the wardens.
Assasinated Celene, Briala rules through Gaspard.
Did not ally with the sentinels, drank from the Well
Divine Cass.
Redeem Solas
Married the Inquisition to Divine Victoria.
Comps:
Cass encouraged to restart Seekers.
Dorian did not reconcile.
Cole made more human.
Blackwall servs Inq as Thom Ranier.
Viv given real heart.
Leiliana hardened.
Cullen no longer taking Lyrium.
House of repose contract destroyed.
Saved the Chargers
Helped Solas's friend.

My "canon" Lavellan was intentionally designed not to be the stereotypical mage-halla who is hunted by the Dread Wolf. Instead, she is an ambitious, determined (even a bit ruthless), and forward-thinking Artificer/technologist Rogue who seeks to overturn much of the traditional structures of Thedas and help not just her people, but everyone. She's also a bit of a humanboo who takes a keen interest in human affairs. She and Cullen went well together due to their shared determination and more awkward private personality aspects, and the fact that they likely spent hours and hours together leading the Inquisition. The full sheet:
Ellana Lavellan:
Race-Elf
Class-Rogue/Archer/Artificer
Gender-Female
Major Decisions:
- Was skeptical of her title as "Herald."
- Allied with the Mages
- Declared the Inquisition for herself ("an elf will stand for us all")
- Allied with the Wardens with Alistair as their leader and left Hawke in the Fade
- Forced Celene, Gaspard, and Briala to come to a truce, partially because she's fed up with both leaders
- Let Morrigan drink from the Well
- Made Softened Leliana Divine
- Chose to save Solas
- Kept the Inquisition alive as a peacekeeping force in preparation for the Dread Wolf Rises.
Companion Choices:
- Mostly friendly, with the exception of Vivienne
- Romanced Cullen and helped him in overcoming his lyrium addiction
- Freed Solas's friend but let the mages go
- Cole more human
- Dorian reconciled with his father
- Varric uncovered the red lyruim soruce
- Cassandra did not rebuild the Seekers, instead dedicating herself fully to the Inquisition
- Blackwall made a Grey Warden
- Sera killed Harmond mid-sentence, without the Inquisitor's approval
- Iron Bull saved the Chargers
- Vivian gave her the heart
- Josephine restored her name by doing favors
- Leliana was softened

Impossible to have a Canon Inquisitor. Dragon Age to me is a game about multiple universes or realities.
Kaaras Adaar: Cassandra romanced, Inquisition pledged to Divine Vivienne, Templars conscripted. Wardens Banished. Hawke survives. Servant of Mythal. Gaspard is Emperor.
Ellana Lavellan: Romanced Solas, Inquisition pledged to Divine Leliana (Steeled), Circle conscripted. Wardens conscripted. Hawke survives. Servant of Mythal. Briala rules through Gaspard.
Maxwell Trevelyan: Romanced Josephine, Inquisition disbands, Divine Cassandra, Templar allies and then all became Seekers. Wardens Preserved. Alistair survives. Morrigan serves Flemeth. Celene rules alongside Gaspard and Briala.
Malika Cadash: Romanced Iron Bull [lulz], Inquisition disbands, Divine Leliana (Inspired), Circle allies, Wardens Banished, Loghain survives. Morrigan serves Flemeth. Celene rules alone, Gaspard/Briala executed.

My first playthrough without any meta knowledge is pretty much always my canon.
Not that I expect him to be more than a codex entry or war table quest giver or similarly not physically appearing entity, but here goes:
Sigurd Trevelyan, warrior turned Templar through inspiration by Cassandra.
Decisions, decisions:
- Embraced the title of Herald. "My faith is my shield."
- Allied with the templars. "The flood of demons will be banished with righteous fury."
- Declared the Inquisition to stand for order and stability.
- Allied with the Wardens. "Every warden sacrifices to fight the darkspawn, and so every warden deserves a second chance."
- Made Celene, Gaspard and Briala work together. "Truth be told, I care little about who rules that carnival. I was there to send a message that there won't be any assassinations on my watch. All three of them seem pretty terrible people, so here's hope that they'll annoy each other for many years to come. Heh."
- Left Stroud in the fade. "I have heard how most Grey Wardens go out, and this seemed a kinder way. May he have found a warrior's end."
- Let Calpernia go. "Someone has to come home and tell the story."
- Let Morrigan drink from the well. "I don't think she should have done it, and there was no way I was taking a sip from water with unknown magical properties."
- Decided to redeem Solas. "As terrible as your plan is, for old times sake I will try to talk you out of it. See reason. We did not save the world so you could break it in a different way. "
- Disbanded the Inquisition on a positive note. "Ladies, gentlemen, it was an honour to serve by your side. By your service, the world has become a better and safer place. Now go home to your families and enjoy the well earned fruit of your labour. I will remember and miss you. Godspeed."
Friends and companions:
- Friendly with everyone. "We have a world to save, there is no room for animosity."
- Romanced Cassandra
- Cassandra became Divine Victoria and also rebuilt the seekers
- Leliana remained Princess Stabbity. "I regret it in retrospect, but back then I did not think it was my place to tell her how to do her job."
- Cullen overcame his lyrium addiction and walked into the sunset with his mabari. "When the time comes, I hope I will be as strong as you, my friend."
- Blackwall was made a Warden.
- Cole became more human. "I can't say I felt comfortable about a spirit that thrives on other people feeling awful so he can help them..."
- Dorian and his father hopefully mended their relationship.
- Helped Varric with all those red lyrium related problems.
- Had funny conversations on a roof with Sera, despite her cracking that noble's head.
- Saved the Chargers and made Iron Bull Tal-Vashoth in the process. "Never leave your own men and women behind. And if those ox-men brought their most flammable ship against a bunch of magic flinging Vints, that's on them."
- Helped Vivienne with the wyvern's heart. "This is what friends are for."
- Solved Josephine's problem through diplomacy despite an itch to be rather blunt about it.
- Listened to all of Solas's stories. "How often do you get to talk to someone so much older than yourself? Never miss an opportunity to learn."

my Cannon Inquisitor
Inquisitor: Eyla Lavellen
Class: Rouge (Archer build)
LI : Solas
Best Buds: Dorian, Cole
she got along well with almost everyone in the group...with the exception of Sara. ( she found her infatuating to deal with.)
- Sided with the Mages
made them equal in the Inquistion
- Briala rules though Gaspard
Celene is dead (she felt guilty about it though)
- Banished the Grey Wardens
Hawke stayed, Alistair is with the Wardens
- drank form the well of Sorrows
Abalas lives, Morrigan disapproves, Samson survived.
Tresspasser DLC
Disbanded the Inquisistion
vowed to try and redeem Solas
the reason this is my cannon is because, I felt it made sense. in both a story telling aspect and just fun way. romancing Solas adds a bittersweet feel to the overall plot.
Yes, Corphifish is defeated, the breach is closed, and the Inquisition has become a respectable force in Thedas. but her lover is not only gone, but has plans she can't even comprehend.
It makes for an intregeing lead in for DA4.

Conner (Keldar for fanfic reasons  ) Lavellan; Assassin Swords-elf. (chose this spec to end fights quickly, cleanly, and with a minimum of suffering) Joined the Inquisition because he could see the necessity. Averagely Dalish religiously. Fell in love with Cassandra, and was good friends with and supported all the inner circle (even Sera, eventually) except for Vivienne and later Solas (for obvious reasons). Cassandra rebuilds the Seekers (with the headcanon that Conner himself joins their ranks after Trespasser to give himself an edge in the coming war; but released by a spirit of Hope instead of Faith) Iron Bull embraces his chargers and nature as a Vashoth, a True Grey One. Dorian is able to forgive his father once Halward's regret is genuinely demonstrated. Sera is able to accept the recruitment/entrapment of Harmond and offers Conner a place among the Jennies. Varric of course becomes Viscount and establishes the legitimacy of Clan Lavellan as a quasi-noble house in the Free Marches, both Kirkwall and Wycombe. Vivienne is given the correct heart, but due to her manipulations is put on SEVERE probation for the rest of the game. Ranier is spared his execution for his contributions to the Inquisition and is given the chance to atone with the Grey Wardens. Cole is encouraged to grow and accept the change into a more mortal being, and finds connection and friendship where otherwise he was content being forgotten. Solas continues his self-destructive path of guilt and delusion DESPITE knowing full well how real Conner and everyone else truly are. Conner. Not. HAPPY. Cullen is able-with Conner's full support- to throw off his Lyrium addiction, and aid in the shattered remains of his order's efforts to do the same. Leliana is able to regain her optimism and hope in the face of the false necessities of the game, becoming a just but crafty Divine Victoria. Josephine and her family are protected from the House of Repose by Conner and Leliana's intervention, granting her respect in both Orlais and Antiva. Favored the Mages because they were in essence a civilian population under threat by an extremist paramilitary. (In his opinion) Accepted the nomination to Inquisitor to champion the good of the common people, no matter their creed. Recruited/delegated most judgements. Saved Hawke and kept the Wardens' around to prevent future disasters. Favored the common folk in most decision making. Reunited Celene and Briala at the ball. Supported Leliana's bid for the seat of Divine. Spared the elves at the Temple of Mythal and let Morrigan drink from the Well of Sorrows (he's read the stories; he knows EXACTLY the kind of price this power would exact and he wants NONE of it) Restructured the Inquisition into a small crisis response unit under Divine Victoria to combat Fen'Harel's resurgence and (hopefully) save his former friend and mentor from himself. Coming off of a Cousland Warden who helped raise Kieran with his wife Morrigan, and a snarky-ass mage Hawke, this felt like it fit the most with the themes that Conner (who I also played the Dalish Origin with and a heavily modified rogue Hawke with previously) as a character would contribute to. He's connected to the elvhen lore that features heavily in the setting now, has been moderately successful in changing Thedas for the better (again hopefully) in regards to the Mage and Elven plights, and even without a romance with Solas feels a deep personal connection with and stakes in the future fight. |

All three of my Inquisitor's are canon I guess. In DA:O I had three main playthroughs which I have since carried into the next two games. So I have three DA:4 playthroughs lined up for when it comes out. A mostly good character, a mostly evil one and a do whatever I feel is right character.

Honestly not sure, my absolute favorite version of the DAI story is my Dalish Mage but there is no possible canon World State that's in-character for her.
Adhal Lavellan
Class: Rift Mage, otherwise focused on Frost, Spirit and Storm magic (still knows a Fire spell or 2)
The Wrath of Heaven: Took the mountain path. Denied being chosen by Andraste.
In Hushed Whispers: Allied with the mages because she believes they should all be free
In Your Heart Shall Burn: Bought time by questioning Corypheus about what he is and what he wants to do (she was legit curious too)
Here Lies the Abyss: Stroud was the Grey Warden contact. Cleared all the siege points at the battlements, told Hawke to protect the soldiers. Convinced some of the Grey Wardens not to fight. Let Stroud sacrifice himself as he wanted. Banished the Wardens in case Corypheus controlled them again some other way, though she intended it as temporary until Corypheus was defeated.
Wicked Eyes and Wicked Hearts: Allowed Celene to die and installed Briala as the shadow-Empress via Gaspard. On the surface this is a frankensteined solution mistakenly put together because a forest-dweller was asked to make a continent-affecting political decision. In actuality Adhal is better informed and socially cleverer than she seems and letting Celene die was punishment for burning an alienage populated by 1000s simply for public appearances, and blackmailing Gaspard into being Briala's puppet is ironic punishment for being super racist. Plus she knows a blackmailed Emperor passing pro-elf laws will ultimately destabilize Orlais, this also good in her book.
What Pride Had Wrought: Followed all the rituals at the Temple of Mythal. Drank from the Well of Sorrows. She saw the 'price' as really no price at all, since Mythal is one of the Creators she worships, the nice one at that, she would gladly follow her word bound or not. Plus this is a mass of actual ancient knowledge of her people, no way she's passing on that.
Supported Leliana as Divine. She openly supported freedom for mages and was open to all races. Whereas Cassandra insults her culture to her face and low-key defended Tranquility. And Vivienne...she's Vivienne.
Promise of Destruction: Left the fate of the Seekers up to Cassandra.
All New, Faded for Her: Freed the spirit, allowed Solas to kill the mages responsible for the binding.
The Verchiel March: Allowed Sera to kill Lord Harmond, supported her back at Skyhold.
Revelations: Never got much approval for Blackwall (pretty sure he didn't like her actually)
Demands of the Qun: Never got approval high enough to get the quest. She drank to dragon slaying with him and met the Chargers though.
The Forgotten Boy: Allowed Cole to end the wounded's suffering, and then recruited him.
Subjected to His Will: Made Cole more spirit-like
Last Resort of Good Men: She told Dorian about the letter, encouraged him to at least talk with his father.
Bring Me the Heart of Snow White: Didn't help Vivienne
Of Somewhat Fallen Fortune: Let Josephine deal with her problem her own way, helped elevate the DuParaquettes
Perseverance: Told Cullen he didn't need lyrium
The Left Hand of the Divine: Leliana hardened, no reason to spare a corrupt chantry shem, plus it's Leliana's business
Trespasser
Was given a Comtesse title in Kirkwall and the Key to the City
Set Ataashi free
Disbanded the Inquisition
Over the course of the game she became more and more disillusioned and tired of the world, feels betrayed when even people she considered nice turn out to have ingrained racism or disrespect for her culture, and broken by revelation upon revelation that her culture gets so much wrong. So in the end she agrees with Solas' plan, and in my headcanon she argues against his refusal to let her join until he concedes.
This probably totally won't fit with DA4 but it's so much better as a dalish mage imo. The Anchor is the brand of elven god, your main base is where the Veil was made, you pledge yourself to one of your gods while gaining a literal pool of ancient knowledge about your people, the main villain and your rival is an ancient tevinter magister, the exact kind of person who leeched off and destroyed your people, who's a racist asshole usurping your people's ancient magic. A dalish is the Inquisitor who has the most reason to hate Corypheus and defeating him as an elf is massive poetic justice.

I have done away with the idea of canon out of sheer frustration, and now I have, like... six world states plotted out in the Keep that all tickle my fancy in different ways and allow for maximum wiggle room going into DA4. 😛

been working on a "canon" for years now, every once in a while another idea rears it's head and makes me rethink the entire world state I've more or less given up on making a canon as well, much like vertigomez out of sheer frustration  however I do have two Inquisitors who I plan on taking along in their respective world states  Tylaera Lavellan; elf female, Mage (Rift Mage), romancing Cullen Malak Adaar; qunari male, Mage (Knight-Enchanter), romancing Cassandra
they more or less follow the same story line, with some differences here and there a few of the differences include;
Tylaera: - non believer (Dalish religion)
- Leliana as Divine (softened/inspired)
- Sides with the mages (allies) - Declares Inquisition for Order
- Briala + Celene as rulers of Orlais - Morrigan drank from the well, sides with Sentinels
- Stroud was sacrificed in the Fade, Wardens allied - Disbands the Inquisition, redeem Solas
Malak: - believer - Vivienne as Divine (friendly)
- Sides with the templars (allies) - Declares Inquisition for the Player (Corypheus must be stopped) - Three-way "peace" in Orlais - Morrigan drank from the well, sides with Sentinels (same as Tylaera) - Loghain was sacrificed in the Fade, Wardens allied - Peacekeeping force, redeem Solas

I thought I did one of these. Well, anyway:
Ghilan'athim (Ana) Lavellan
A mage of considerable power, First of her clan, and an exemplar to all Dalish. Or so she thought...
Specialization: Rift Mage
Companions/Advisors: Friendly with everyone, though not because she likes everyone, but she figured making enemies wouldn't suit her cause. Solas, Dorian and Cole are about the only ones she would consider real friends. Varric is alright as well.
Romance: Solas. Fen'Harel. The Dread Wolf. Mythal's mercy, if her Keeper could see her now. She had ONE JOB. Protect her clan from the Dread Wolf's gaze. Instead, she went and fell in love with him. Nice going.
Divine: ALL HAIL MURDER POPE.
Loyalty Quests
Dorian: Made nice with dad.
Blackwall: Broke him out, he rejoined freely.
Bull: Meet your newest Tal-Vashoth
Cassandra: Goodbye Seekers
Sera: Harmond forced to fork over his goods.
Cole: The friendly Spirit
Solas: Set Wisdom free.
Varric: Scolded Bianca and moved on.
Viv: Got her the creepy heart.
Leliana: Steeled.
Cullen: Off the red stuff.
Josie: Leliana's agents took care of it.
Wrath of Haven: 'Chosen One'? Have you lost your minds? No.
In Hushed Whispers: Allied with the mages.
In Your Heart Shall Burn: Do it because it's right.
Here Lies the Abyss: Stroud left in the Fade, Wardens exiled.
Wicked Eyes and Wicked Hearts: Guess what shems, an elf now rules Orlais.
What Pride had Wrought: Allied with the Sentinels, and no way was that haughty witch taking the elvhen Well, thank you.
The Descent: Done
Jaws of Hakkon: Did that too. Damned Avvar god-dragon gave Inky a nasty scar for her troubles. The revelations about Ameriden really messed with her head, and she was not at her best for that fight.
Trespasser: Disbanded the Inquisition. Something she wanted to do the instant Corypheus was dead. She is so done with these shems and their nonsense, and with everything that she learned about everything, she would have thrown herself at Solas's feet and begged him to take her with him, had she been given the opportunity. As it is, she is determined to save him from himself.
All said and done, her ultimate goal was to tear apart the status quo by dismantling every powerful organization she could get her sneaky little claws into. Her hope was that the humans would be so busy trying to pick up the pieces in her wake, they wouldn't have time to mess with the elves.
Now she has cast her gaze to Fen'Harel, and she hunts.

-charming, witty, and sarcastic in most instances; occasional diplomacy in favorite subjects, or aggression in doling out judgment. Advisors: Josephine-contract is destroyed, AND messenger is killed. Briala reconnects with a ruling Celene I want to finish my Greedfall run, but I may test the waters of my new canon Inquisitor soon. Or simply wait until the next game is closer, and do a trilogy run. I was hanging out in my canon headspace, and found I wanted to expand on my variety, and simply took a few steps back. The canon is just whatever best story I enjoy the most, along with the combinations of variety and character beats.
UPDATE: Ultimately I chose to keep the previously mentioned story choices, but with a different character choice.
Female Qunari:
support-oriented Mage Necromancer (uses all spec., barring using Mark for focus, plus Barrier, Dispel, Revival, and a non-damaging ice spell)
skilled negotiator with majority of jobs sourced from Orlesian nobles; doesn't care about power and influence, but not afraid to get hands dirty with diplomacy and spycraft to restore some semblance order; does not worship Andraste, or believe in being the Herald; doesn't seek to change other people's belief systems, and tolerates the existing framework (with a minor push towards less mage discrimination)

I broke down and crafted four world states to hit all my favorite story beats, character concepts, and romances. I realized I can't possibly pack everything I love into just one so I managed to distill it to four loool. Right now it's tentatively looking like I'll have one Inquisitor of each race, evenly divided by gender and (sort of) class. Female qunari mage for Sera, male elf rogue (archer) for Iron Bull, male dwarf rogue (DW) for Dorian, female human warrior for Josephine. Two can go the mage route and two can go the templar route. Now if only I can resist the temptation to make Leliana Divine in all of them.  |

I haven't used the above, but the lacking spell schools has been slowly plaguing a small corner in the back of my mind. For class variety, and for optimistically hoping for a return of the Creation and Entropy schools, my female Qunari will instead be a canon Jill-of-All-Trades Tempest (wielding a kama and sickle, wearing a mix of leather and plate armor, utilizing brute force, sneaky flanking, and lots of spell effects via tonics and flasks and Mark of the Rift). I hope my Dragon Age 4 canon can be a straight, male Qunari as a support mage in the back line, romancing a fierce or flippant female Dwarf warrior.
So, this minor change is due to my preference for variety, character roles, and build enjoyment, which factor in alongside my story and narrative choices for building my canon characters and their adventures.

Out of curiosity, do you happen to have corresponding Wardens and Hawkes for each of these world states? If you do, would you mind sharing?

Out of curiosity, do you happen to have corresponding Wardens and Hawkes for each of these world states? If you do, would you mind sharing? Sure thing! Though it's really me just shuffling around the same few characters lol. And instead of one Inquisitor of each race, I'm kind of thinking of having three qunari and a dwarf... I blame this really good Josie/Adaar fic for confusing (and delighting) me, and also I really like qunari Inquisitors attached to world states where Hawke's involved with Isabela. I just like synergy. 😳 Anyway, this is what I've got set up (organized by LI purely because I automatically know which PC is attached to which character, and I like having loose ~themes~ but also a fair amount of variety). Also.... warning for word vomit. I promise this all makes sense in my head... Leliana - Fenris - Sera
Zevran - Isabela - Iron Bull
Leliana - Fenris - Dorian
Zevran - Isabela - Josephine
The Warden attached to the Leliana/Fenris world state is a female city elf DW rogue, and the Champion associated with this world state is a male mage Hawke. They're attached to Sera and Dorian because Sera's connected to the Denerim alienage, and with Dorian because there's the sorta-kinda tie-in with Tevinter, what with the slavers raiding the alienage and all. I really like having Leli and Sera in the same world state because they're both these little sapphic Andrastian orphans who were raised by noblewomen and like getting into trouble (but also helping people). But Sera rejected the noble lifestyle completely (or, it rejected her....) while Leliana embraced it wholeheartedly. I like the parallels between mage Hawke and mage Adaar (both mercenaries, both apostates, Hawke obviously has a unique history with Qun-loyal Qunari and Tal-Vashoth). Also like that both Sera and Fenris fall for these tall humble down-to-earth mages. Fenris and Dorian showcase opposite ends of Tevinter society and I think that's a cool dynamic, too.
The Warden attached to the Zevran/Isabela world state is a male 2H casteless dwarf warrior, and the Champion is a female mage Hawke (I thought about rogue, but... I just really like Hawke as an apostate). They're attached to Iron Bull and Josephine because of Isabela's involvement and history with the Qunari, and the fact that she and Josephine have big epic romantic duels as part of their romance arc, and they're both involved with the sea (Isabela's a pirate who loves the freedom of the open ocean, obviously, and the Montilyets were known for their trading fleet and Josie talks about loving the sea....). Brosca's really just around because I love dwarves and the Dwarf Commoner origin is my favorite; Zevran ties in with Bull because their romances are similar (bi/pansexual FWBs who catch feelings; associated with shady Crows/Ben-Hassrath), and with Josephine because once again she and Zevran showcase opposite ends of Antivan society which is a cool dynamic, and also both of their romances involve betrothals and they love to reminisce about glorious Antiva City!). I hope you get your qunari support mage (and dwarven warrior gal) in DA4!

Zevran - Isabela - Iron Bull
Brosca's really just around because I love dwarves and the Dwarf Commoner origin is my favorite.
Neat! Thank you for taking the time to put that together. Your explanation of your themes and relationships was very interesting. I can see how you put everything together.
As a dwarf fan myself, the mere identifier of race is sometimes enough in and of itself. I know you are not looking for such opinions, but I find your Zevran - Isabela - Iron Bull world state very appealing. If I were vascillating over my choices, that would be the world state that I, personally, would ultimately choose. Still, we have to wonder how settled we really are once we face the fully-realized next chapter.

I know I sometimes make rash declarations (after some attempted planning, and maybe a little agony over details), but I still haven't completely sold myself on my new Dalish canon. While I find elves to be my favorite pairing for Bull (and choosing the race would allow me to complete a dwarf/human/elf/Qunari canon spread), some of the awkward insertion of the race still bugs me (though I have crafted a background that mostly satisfies my doubts), and the obvious personal contention of being my least favorite fantasy race overall (subjective, personal opinion only, of course). My favorite Inquisitor story is actually the faithful character working through all the potential revelations, and accepting the role of the Herald. I still classify The Iron Bull as probably my favorite of the romanceable companions, so I gradually learned to give up my Andrastian to fit the Bull better (I know he doesn't judge one way or the other, but neither does he once discuss what might be pretty important events or beliefs for a faithful Inquisitor). It occured to me today, that I could potentially give up The Iron Bull as my Inquisitor's romance, and still see him happy with Dorian, while keeping my Qunari race selection by choosing my next favorite romance (the seemingly underappreciated Blackwall), which also allows for bringing back her Andrastianism. I think he pairs well with a charming and mildly flippant Inquisitor. I would change my Inquisitor's approach to judgments from being an executioner to a recruitor, to better adapt to her new role and romance choice. My only real roadblock would be to decide whether or not my penchant for variety could survive the loss of a romanceable Qunari. I'm not sure how active some of these threads are anymore, but anyone who might share their thoughts would be helpful in perhaps nudging my indecision even a little bit. A small shout-out to vertigomez, as I have always enjoyed our interactions, and value your opinions on adventures in Dragon Age. |

My current is going to be my canon
Gwyneth 'Gwyn' Lavellan Female Rift Mage Cullen romance
Young and hot-headed, often rash with her decisions but made with compassion in mind. Values knowledge and honesty.
She was known as a merciful judge during Skyhold's judging
recruited all companions, befriended all of them Cole is more human, Dorian met his dad, Iron Bull is Tal-Vashoth, for Sera's quest the noble works for the Inquisition as payback Solas freed his friend, Varric tracked down the lyrium source and Vivienne got a snowy wyvern heart for her dying lover Cullen doesn't use lyrium, Leliana's assassins took care of the contract on Josephine's life, and Leliana was inspired Got Bull and Dorian together, and mentions of the romance between Blackwall and Josephine Sutherland's company was formed and was successful
Refused to be known as Herald of Andraste (and tried declining the title of Inquisitor, not that the game let me ) Allied with the mages, recruited the Wardens and left Stroud in the Fade, Celene has entered a shaky "peace" with Gaspard and Briala Drank from the Well herself, destroyed Samson's armor and Leliana is the Divine.
Did each and every side quest (currently over 100 hours on this playthrough) Finished Jaws of Hakkon, revealed the truth about Ameridan and earned the Legend-mark Saved the mines from the darkspawn/titan Released Ataashi, disbanded the Inquisition and will attempt to redeem Solas (also married Cullen)

) Lavellan; Assassin Swords-elf. (chose this spec to end fights quickly, cleanly, and with a minimum of suffering)
