Feynriel.
It would be awesome to see how his unique talents developed with mastery and age. His abilities are very relevant and would be cool to see a talented writing team incorporate the half-blooded elf into the story.

Isabela and Fenris might also be interesting, but I’d be fine with them staying out of it too. I'd rather they left Fenris out of it as they messed with my head too much all ready what with Hawke sending him away in DAI and then his attitude in the comic series. However, Isabella is a possibility considering she always survives and featured in DAMP, plus she is a native of Rivain. I would have thought the Lords of Fortune would be an ideal fit for her, they are said to control the coasts of Rivain and we are going there. I wouldn't be surprised to discover that she was their founder. After all, we had never heard of them previously and then just after Isabella makes herself a self-styled "Admiral", suddenly the Lords of Fortune are a prominent faction. It all makes sense to me. Yeah Fenris is pretty quantum, so I’d get leaving him alone. It just feels weird to be in Tevinter and not meet the resident hater to vibe check magisters, especially if slave rebellions are a big part of the game. Ha, I’d love to play as Lord of Fortune and answer to Isabella and her fancy hat. It wouldn’t surprise me, either.

He's the only Grey Warden that I actually want to return because he was funny sure, but he was also showed the tragic price that the Wardens pay. None of the others in the other games had that mix.

So we have an answer concerning some returning characters if not companions. Perhaps it is possible to work out a pattern for who else might return. So far they have confirmed:
Evka/Antoine: First introduced in Tevinter Nights. Also featured in DA Day short story and the Missing. Strife/Irelin: First introduced in Tevinter Nights. Also featured in DA Day short story and the Missing.
Thus I think it likely that Viago and Teia from the Crows will also be seen in game since they appear in all three. Also Caterina Dellamorte who had a major appearance in Tevinter Nights, is First Talon and Lucanis' grandmother so almost a given she will feature, particularly as these 3 were the only surviving Talons in Tevinter Nights and the Crows are a major faction in the game.
Companions that were introduced in Tevinter Nights and/or featured in short stories/the Missing: Neve, Lucanis, Emmrich. Companions linked to factions introduced/featured in Tevinter Nights/the Missing: Taash, Davrin, Bellara.
On the whole there does seem to be a focus on more recent media for returning characters. That is all to the good as the following appeared in Tevinter Nights and/or recent comic series:
Dorian (Major appearance in Tevinter Nights, also featured in the comic series Deception and companion in DAI) Vaea (brief appearance in Tevinter Nights - main character in Wraiths series - unlikely to be seen but not impossible) Maevaris (only in Tevinter Nights but did feature prominently) Sidony (only in Tevinter Nights but strongly connected with Mortalitasi and in DAMP) Myrion (only in Tevinter Nights but close connection with Veil Jumpers so may be one of them) Hollix (only in Tevinter Nights but is a Lord of Fortune so may be seen in Rivain) Bharv (same comment as for Hollix) Gatt (appeared in Tevinter Nights and was the Ben'Hassrath contact in DAI. Said in TN he was in contact with Varric) Charter (appeared in Tevinter Nights, comic series and DAI but Harding and Varric would seem to be the main agents of the Inquisition) Tessa/Marius (featured in two different comic series but not anywhere else - unlikely to be seen) Cassandra (featured in the Netflix series and was training in the Hunterhorns in the epilogue to Trespasser - outside chance of being seen)
I don't really see anyone else featuring as many have varied outcomes depending on your world state. Possibly alternative content if they are not present but depends on how extensive the world state in the CC is. Seems unlikely to me. More likely just mentioned in conversation if at all. However, with 700 voiced characters in game anything is possible. Nevertheless, they probably wish to avoid characters that were previously voiced and featured prominently in game as that would mean keeping to their original VA, rather than have perhaps one VA doing different voices for many characters.

I hope for some returning companion characters as NPCs. But with the last video they showed Josephine and Zevran are out of the game. We will see.

But with the last video they showed Josephine and Zevran are out of the game. Did they? I didn't know that was definite. Not that I'm bothered as I've already explained elsewhere why I would rather not see them. As the one that made Vaea's comic said: They weren't asked for the rights for their characters, i doubt they will be in it. I thought that Bioware would own the rights to the characters but would give him notification if they were going to use them and possibly he might get some royalties. To be honest, I doubt we'll see any of them but they did give Vaea a cameo in Tevinter Nights, which was totally out of sync with the timeline as the Antaam had already attacked the mainland in the short story but when I queried it with the author of the comic he said she was heading north from Kirkwall after the events of his first comic series and before those of Deception. So I don't know why the author of the story in Tevinter Nights used her at all in that case as Deception had come out a year before Tevinter Nights so there was really no excuse to get it wrong and to be honest her role was so small in that short story it could have been anyone from the Inquisition. It was the fact that they did use her that made me feel that left the door open for her to be in DAV.

Sorry but i highly doubt that Bioware won´t have a handful more characters which are known by the casual gamer who only played the games. Sure Veilguard featured more new and novel mainly Tevinter Nights characters but Veilguard is still a sequel and i don´t think that many will care that much about the novel characters. Same goes for DAI besides Cole those characters were fine but i won´t say that i was overjoyed in seeing them ingame. So yeah there should some known returning characters.

Sure Veilguard featured more new and novel mainly Tevinter Nights characters but Veilguard is still a sequel and i don´t think that many will care that much about the novel characters. My point was that Tevinter Nights, the short stories and the Missing appeared to be setting things up for DAV, so if a character appeared in all three they are likely to be in the game (which has been confirmed by the panel for Evka/Antoine and Strife/Irelin) and the chances of a character from previous games appearing in DAV will likely be far higher if they also appeared in Tevinter Nights. Casual players tend not to be that bothered about returning characters, particularly low profile ones that they probably won't remember. Harding was brought back because she was popular and they will likely remember her because we saw her so often. By contrast, Charter has been used more in associated media as the Inquisition contact precisely because only hardcore fans are likely to remember she was part of Leliana's spy network. Casual players will, of course, remember Dorian but Maevaris will likely mean nothing to them because she only featured in a War Table mission and the Trespasser epilogue screen (not everyone played this whether by choice or because they couldn't). However, since she was included in Tevinter Nights, that is why I've put her in the list as a possible encounter. I flagged up Sidony for the same reason because whilst she was only in DAMP she was the protagonist in a story in Tevinter Nights and has links to the Grand Necropolis. Maevaris and Sidony will be for hardcore fans not casual players. I suppose there might be cameos from earlier games but outside of main characters I don't see them meaning much to casual players. Thus, the most likely to appear is Isabella, because she comes from Rivain and always survives (plus she featured in DAMP). Most characters that featured in the southern based games really have no reason to be seen up north and those with connections to the regions we are visiting, like Zevran, Fenris and Merrill, have too many different outcomes to be seen unless they form part of a plot where an alternative can be substituted. However, that would mean recording your choices in the CC and I honestly don't think this is going to be as extensive as the old Keep was. Therefore, I don't see them appearing.

After today's combat video with the confirmation of the evanuris controlling the darkspawn I REALLY want to see the architect. Could he become an unlikely ally?! Can the evanuris control darkspawn whom the architect has freed from the call? Sorry if spoiler tags don't work. Don't really know how to on my phone since I don't post much haha

Don't really know how to on my phone since I don't post much haha Hmm, the Architect could be an unlikely ally if he is to make an appearance. For that matter, what of the other Magisters? Leaving aside Corypheus who may or may not be running around the Fade, so far, according to what we have been told, one of the remaining five has been eaten (if the dwarf's account is to be believed) and another has gone crazy (the Madman of Chaos serving Zazikel after the death of their Arch-demon perhaps). That leaves three others unaccounted for, two of whom are the high priests of the Old Gods/Arch-demons yet to arise, Razikale and Lusacan, which means: They are likely going to be supporting the rise of the elven gods and their Arch-demons, assuming they are the corresponding arisen Old God and not just some dragon they have corrupted like Corypheus did.
