Former Elf Companions Joining Solas (or not) In DA4

I guess I just find that kinda boring. She makes a more interesting complex bad guy in a world where 99% of the people are going to default to being anti-solas

When we think about people who would follow Solas, we always come down to the fact that anyone following him would have to have been lied to.

So we have to find the Samsons of Thedas, the ones who want to see the place burn. But it'd be nice if they wanted to see the place burn and also had a sympathetic back story as I find Samson unsympathetic and repugnant.

Someone who's life was screwed either way, so may as well help take everybody out that wronged them. 

Well, Solas is the Lord of Tricksters and God of Betrayal so it makes sense he would lie to his followers especially since they are going to die too. It's not like Corypheus where he could be honest about his overall intentions to his followers. 

I get your point. I just don't want it to be Avexis and don't see it fitting her. 

Also, and this is a big sticking point: The "good guys" aren't going to un tranquilize her because they (maybe with her uninformed consent) chose to tranqulize her in the first place. to add to that, they lack the skills and the know how.

But Powerful People with Big Plans that involve Ancient Magics that know Ancient Magics could want to use her Dragon Speaking ability. Would have the skills and the know how.

Maybe the writers could randomly give the good guys the skills and the know how-- but this would be too convenient for my liking considering "oh mer gawd, we know how to end Tranquility but it makes them go suicidal and insane!" was a thing in the Book/DAI. And no one is motivated to reverse tranquility because the Tranquil aren't fighting for their rights at all.

SO pretty much I only see her being successfully un tranquilized by the Bad Guy.

why unfortunately?

Two reasons. 
1. I didn't want them to become a couple. It didn't seen like that kind of relationship when I watched the movie and too often the male and female leads in a movie get together in that way so I was hoping this would be a rare case they didn't.
2. When she brings it up. Seriously, they couldn't find a better time for her to talk about her past lover than right after she and the Inquisitor had sex? 

I mean... it's not like she went into detail. She just mentions it in a, "I thought I'd never love again, but then you came along" sort of way.

I love the notion of some elf companions joining Solas. It gives weight to their character development, they xease to be "someone, who once followed Hawke, Warden, Inquisitor". And it will be awesome to see those heroes again, after so much time, and to see how are they doing. I loved cameos in previous games.
I can definetly see Merril. Fenris and Vellana joining Solas. Cole is pretty much confirmed to stay beside him, if he is made spirit (though not to help his cause, but to help Solas as a person). I doubt Zevran will join, seems to me he is doing pretty good now, he isn't that much invested into elf liberation movement.

I suppose I just believe the "anti different people" Cassandra who's dream of the Chantry is to keep the status quo... this Cassandra I dislike isn't very likely to spend time on a cure for the Tranquil.

But maybe her character development off screen would lead her to doing something compassionate and selfless for us to read some codex about it come DA4

Cassandra? Anti-different people...? The same one who went against all Chantry and its status-quo by initiating Inquisition with Leliana, and accepted Inquisitor regardless of what race or status they are?

Cassandra is probably one of the most likable characters in the series, warts and all, because of her dedication not to status quo, but truth and honesty. Even if it takes her some time, multiple times in the story she has pivoted and adjusted her beliefs when facts and reason went against establishment and tradition. She's also a woman of her word. If she said that she's going to search for a solution and spread the word when she's going to find a working one, we can be fairly certain that she will.

She advises Inky to get rid of Dorian, Cole, and Sera (the different people). She asks a Dalish Inky to make room for the Maker as if they're an ass for not trying. She tells a romanced Dalish Inky that their difference of religion don't matter, only for her to scoff at the very existence of the Temple of Mythal. "they believe in all this nonesense?" *grunt of disgust.* (I suppose it was okay to ignore a small backwater Dalish religion but if it'd ever be as grand as her own in the past, well, that's just too threatening. What idiots.) She calls out Rainer and Dorian for lying about stuff, and then stutters when she gets caught out lying about things. She thinks it's appropriate to shove Varric around just because she's unhappy about Varric lying. (no boundaries, a bully.)

She followed the ORDERS of the previous Divine to start the Inquisition (not her own original idea). Accepted the Inquisitor regardless of race? Regardless of race, she will tell you that making you Inquisitor -was not her idea.- She can't own that and not own that at the same time.

Finding more Seekers does what--- no one is harmed by not being a Seeker. She has the Cure to Tranquility in her hand, she decides to sit on it for years (3 years to Trespasser and the events of Trespasser and whatever amount of time the epilogue slides take)

My opinion of Cassandra will not change. She's passionate and generally pleasant, which got her to be my fave my first PT. So obviously she had surface charm. But the more I explored her character over multiple play throughs, she is not my favorite, not even close, and there is little you can say to change my mind. It's pretty well made up.

I seriously can't see that happening without retconning the whole nature of tranquility, at least when we're talking about it as a permanent state and not a momentary thing like with the Seekers.

She also guarantees protection for Solas, Inquisitor of any race and has no problem with Iron Bull or his diverse Chargers (which she only has praise for). I think you are confusing her advise to be wary of  Dorian, Cole or Sera for something that it isn't - nevermind that in the end, she comes around, going as far as having a gentle friendship with Cole and camaraderie with Dorian. And Sera seems to get on her nerves mostly because she's young and brash, not because she's different - and in this case, Cass also comes around, with Sera also really liking Cassandra back.As you wish. That won't stop me from pointing out where I think things have been misrepresented or misunderstood. It's one thing to dislike a character - it's another to make up things about them, like Cassandra already having a working cure for Tranquility or its side-effects, or has issues with certain characters just because they're 'different', or that because she happens to have issues with a few eccentric Inquisition members means that she somehow has issues with them all.
