Other than Solas and maybe Flemeth NONE. I don't want the game crowded by characters from previous games and having to contrive stupid reasons why they're there when they should be taking care of other jobs and responsibilities. Unless we go to deep roads I also don't want to see a darkspawn and a Grey Warden. I wouldn’t have an issue with Dorian npc appearance given the likely setting but yeah agree i’d Prefer few past characters. Same here.

What if, in the main menu, you could go to the 'Hall of Lost Heroes', and pay 'Shards' to have classic characters from the series join your party?
Like, let's say you pay 1000 'shards' for one character, but you can also pay 9000 'shards' for TEN characters, which is a total bargain, and as a bonus, one of them is guaranteed to be at Rank 5.

Do you have to roam massive regions and collect the shards?

I just saw people discussing Avexis on the thread about elven design and thought I'd bring my musings here: I think Avexis, the tranquil elven mage who we can come across at the Haven chantry, and Frederic of Serault, the foremost researcher of draconology in Orlais, could prove to be fruitful duo lorewise if they were to be brought back together. First of all, Avexis has a personal connection to Cassandra who, in 9:22, rescued her from mages who wished to exploit her ability to control small animals - and dragons. During the events of DA:I we alongside Cassandra learn that tranquility is reversible, and so if we were to get a storyline about a person reconnecting to their emotions and learning to control them after being a tranquil for so long, I think out of all the tranquil we have come across Avexis would be hands down the most interesting option, barring perhaps Feynriel the dreamer (if he was made a tranquil in DA2). Avexis would even work as a companion, the ranger specialization from DA:O seems like it was made for her. It would also be interesting to see her interact with a griffon, would they be equal partners or would she be able influence it?
However, being able to control dragons begs the question what are dragons. No one knows much about them. This is where I think having Frederic back would prove useful. We meet Frederic studying wildlife at the Western Approach where we can see firsthand what the second Blight did to the land. Interestingly, his camp just so happens to be just a stone's throw away from the spot where (very deep underground) one of the Old Gods slumbered before awakening as an Archdemon. Frederic: The ancient Tevinters wrote volumes of on the study of dragons. I believe they had a laboratory [=Still Ruins] in this desert. If only their work hadn't been lost. Truly, the Blghts set the field of draconology back centuries. * * *
Inquisitor: I found this manuscript on dragons in an ancient Tevinter laboratory. Will it help you? The Inquisitor has the manuscript translated by scholars at Tevinter's College of Antiquities who determine it predates the Blights. Hopefully by the next game Frederic would have learned enough from the manuscript to be of assistance if we were to puzzle over facts of dragon biology like their ability to cocoon Blight inside their body like pearl oysters with grains of sand. The second thing to note about Frederic is that he is from the Orlesian marquisate of Serault, the place where Morrigan repaired her elven mirror and known for having some eyebrow raising Chantry customs. Serault also lies next to Tirashan forest about which DA: the last Court left me very eager to learn more. So Frederic could also work as our window to that region.

I want to see ALL OF THEM! I always get SO excited whenever a character from the previous games makes a short appearance. However, I must stress the short part if they had played a large one in the previous scenarios. I believe each game has place for the new heroes to emerge. While I loved Varric in both DA2 and Inq, I feel this is more of an exception. I'm guessing that Solas will play a huge part in DA4 as well, but he seems integral to the story and funnily enough that's the one I'm not too fond of seeing again.

Well if the Inquisitor returns I'd hope that Sera would tag along.
Plenty of little people in Tevinter to help out.
