I hope Calpernia isn’t a companion. One one hand, I find what she's done to be pretty much worse than what Blackwall ever did, except she had the added flaw of Solas' certainty that it was necessary, and none of the redeeming quality of regret that Blackwall had. On the other hand , she's kinda cute and has an interesting personality that I'm open to finding out more about.

So nobody thinks that blonde female character could be Calpernia ? the one in the 2nd picture looks alot like Calpernia, in fact I'd wager that's exactly who it is... I don't see it in the 1st one, though (I thought that one looked like Maevaris) and it seems totally plausible that both Calpernia and Maevaris will have some role in DA4, from comments from people at BW and the direction the storyline from DAI-> the books/graphic novels -> DA4 appears to be heading

I think she’d be very divisive but that’s more reason to have her as a companion for me. I imagine she may regret what the Venatori became or what Corypheus turned out to be, she was used by him after all...but she’s done awful things that can’t be brushed aside. It’d give an interesting dilemma for players in game.

what are characters without flaws? If she openly regretted her actions, I'd be open to romance. But if she maintains her stance, I'd probably pass on her just as I pass on Viv these days.

I wouldn’t say she’s cute, but she is striking in her own way, especially in her concepts from world of thedas, she has a haute couture model sort of look.

On the strategy side, with Calpernia stealing the fire from those torches, it looks like they're preparing an ambush. Also with the Crows (and Rasaan?) about to abduct that woman. So are we seeing some new gameplay strategies/missions here?

On this subject it's just weird no matter how consistent you try and be morally sometimes cracks appear.
I don't mind Solas...nor Caelpernia, I even have sympathy for Corypheus.
But Loghain I detest...and Lucanis I just might kill on sight.

So are we seeing some new gameplay strategies/missions here? I hope so. Introducing class interactions in inquisition was really cool (mages mending bridges, warriors knocking down walls etc) this could be an evolution of that perhaps?

So are we seeing some new gameplay strategies/missions here? I kind of think that this is going to be a big part of the game. When the game was originally under the Joplin moniker, that was a part of it. And while we know they changed tactic a bit, I am hoping that some of that stayed behind. It works well with all of the Crow and Lord of Fortune connections. And it also aligns well with the ‘no power’ angle. If you don’t have Lady Montilyet available to arrange a diplomatic envoy for you, you have to use intrigue and subterfuge to accomplish your larger goals...... And I wonder if that horned Qunari lady is actually our companion? Same horns; same kind of outfit.....?

And I wonder if that horned Qunari lady is actually our companion? Same horns; same kind of outfit.....? Would be cool to see some non-combat skills move back into the skill tree. Like maybe the torch-snuffing thing is available, but the mage has to go up a specific tree to get it. Choosing to sacrifice fighting for utility. ...actually, wait, holy shit. I was talking about wanting group stealth in another thread, but torch snuffing is that. At least in areas with torches — which adds an interesting strategic element. Rogues would have more reliable stealth, but in a dungeon, torch-snuffing could get the whole party by. However, in the outdoors, maybe that same mage is down a spell slot. Ohhhhh man I hope some concept like this makes it into the game.
