Character Creator in DAD

I fully expect that Dorian giving us some official status as an agent of his house will be used as an equalizer regardless of origin.

I think DA4 will end up having a shared Origin again like DA2 did and that Origin is the DA4 PC is a Slave.We will also have all the race choices from Inquistion back here's hoping at least.

I wonder what other origins BW willl use in DA4 that will make sense storywise I still think Slave is the most likely choice.

I mean if they could outsource Nomad from ME: A to Need For Speed team maybe they should outsource CC to Maxis

I want to have a number of options, but why are you not liking the slave origin idea?

I’m usually thinking of the slave origin involving becoming free within or after the prologue.

Any person who may find our character interesting. Vaea, Harding, or any Inquisition agent may decide to recruitment our character. Indipendently on race/background, DA protagonists always know how to fight and defend themselves.

We can add some spice to the recruitment with being involved (we or our master) to something that can be useful to those who have decided to free us.

Or the MC can be buyed and freed just by our master being killed, and follow this person, who killed our slaver.

There are infinite ways to get a freed slave background. We vould even be able to pay our master and became a liberati on our own, and we can stumble in the Inquisition/organization/people who may get the plot start, and simply be hired by them.

I can continue.

It's great to see so many keeping this thread alive and continuing giving feed-back! Hope the biodevs swing by at one point and get some inspiration from all your awesome suggestions and thoughts.

Whilst the dragon age wiki mentions no dwarves are known to be slaves I've never been able to find a source for that, it seems to be an assumption.

The WoT v1 does say "A large number of surface dwarves live in the Imperium. They are not considered citizens but, instead, foreign dignitaries, even if their houses have lived in Tevinter for generations." - p. 79

In the same section that describes the ambassadoria as being their own branch of government that "functions less like a parliament and more like a lobby group."

So I guess people just assumed that if dwarves were treated as foreign dignitaries in Tevinter then they probably wouldn't be enslaved.

And they probably don't get kidnapped into slavery like, say, elves do. But if a dwarf gets into massive debt they can't pay i don't know what's to stop them from selling themselves into slavery to pay it off. Unless of course the Ambassadoria prefers to buy the debt and make the dwarf work it off for them in order to prevent Dwarven slaves from going into circulation.
