Old God worship has been left behind/largely forgotten in favor of the Tevinter Chantry, although that kinda faction would be Venatori-adjacent It depends because the Venatori threw their support behind a false god, blasphemer and heretic (from an Old God cultist point of view), so might be opposed to the Venatori on that account. After all, anyone who is still a follower one of the two remaining Old Gods after all this time is going to be somewhat fanatical in their belief and affronted by the suggestion that they do not merit worship. We are the Tevinter you forgot" makes me think less of Dorian and Maevaris' campaign to redeem Tevinter and more of like.. well a bit of a slave uprising feel and most of all like a ''Tevinter mundanes seeking to overthrow the magocracy" feel. That is what if feels most like to me as well. We also know from TN that there is a free the slaves movement as well but it doesn't necessarily follow this group are in favour of that unless it advances their cause. After all, you don't have to be a mage to keep slaves.

the woman her looks very much like this woman. ( she reminds me of catwomen so i called her crowwoman) But in an other picture she have a bow. So my gess, as this is concept art. 1. first she shoud be Andarateia Cantori and an NPC. Then was change and got a bow. 2. She is Teia and have both weapons. 3. it's just a coincidence

I was actually thinking of "recruit a team of experts to save the world" part that it alludes to. Still applies. The game was hampered heavily because of that. But many buyer loved it.

 That said, this new picture shows that lady Crow featuring. I can hardly see them having two Crows in the mix, so it could be the lady is avenging the death of their friend. I agree maybe, when you're all so focused on the short stories, this is teia. (by the way i see only one or two companions coming from the books like cole)

So we have an Antivan Crow (rogue) Tevinter (presumably) mage and a Grey Warden (warrior). or maybe no grey warden, but the PC.

I mean, the darkspawn alone are indeed quite boring as an enemy, but if they’re going to be featured prominently I think it’s quite likely that there’ll be something/someone else connected to them, like the Blight. They won’t just add them as a major enemy group without a big plot around them. They're more interesting than what the main threat in the game is going to be, which is just another crazy mage plotting to destroy the world to bring back his. After the short storys i don't see another crazy mage coming

It might be Teia.  Long black hair and we can't really see her ears. I'm not going to harp too much on skin color in concept art.

Y’know, upon zooming in, I just realized that Masked Archer Lady is not actually holding her bow. She’s just got her fingers splayed around the grip, but still pointing outward.
How is she doing this?! WHY IS SHE DOING THIS?!
EDIT: Having now watched an archery tutorial video, I realize you’re not supposed to hold the grip of the bow in a fist. But even so, archers still curl their fingers back towards their thumb to stabilize the bow.
I have no idea how resting the grip on the fleshy web between thumb and forefinger is supposed to be conducive to archery.
Feel free to contradict me if you are more knowledgeable in this subject.

The archer in that image doesn’t have black hair. Even in the shaded part it isn’t black. I would say that if the image is meant to be Teia then they decided to change her hair colour from the comic, which I believe the designers of the game are entitled to do. However, so far as the Dragon Age poster is concerned with the archer, I think it is more a case of showcasing the three classes that a hero can be, with possibly a hint of backgrounds as well if it specifically relates to DA4 and they are not going for a one size fits all approach (slave background or Lord of Fortune) which would cover every race and class. It is possible that our hero is only going to be able to be human again as all three of them look human to me (well I thought there was an outside chance the mage was elven). After all the poster cannot be showing potential companions because of the lack of variety and only three figures shown, whereas it could be suggesting a typical DA hero or one specific to DA4. If that were the case then may be the choice of starting background is going to be: Warrior - Grey Warden; Rogue - Crow; Mage - Tevinter Laetans. |

I have no idea how resting the grip on the fleshy web between thumb and forefinger is supposed to be conducive to archery. It is the fact that the other fingers seemed to be bent back from the bow that is odd. The hand could be open with the bow resting between thumb and forefinger but with the others still pointing in roughly the same direction (I have actually done archery). Still, I've already pointed out the impossibility of firing the arrow successfully trying to aim with that helmet, so I don't think realism is high on the agenda with this bit of concept art.  |

Even in the shaded part it isn’t black. I believe the reason they made her hair a slightly warmer black (picking up on the lighting) in that image was to create some visual separation between her hair and her black mask.

After the short storys i don't see another crazy mage coming His name is Solas. 1. He isn't the main threat.
2. He isn't crazy. he is persistent and unwavering (in a bad way). He has his goal and i understand him in a way.(it is bad yes, but he is in his right mind) 3. I don't think it will turn out the way we think

1. First, he is trying to destroy all of reality so yes he is or at least should be. Second, any sources for him not being? 2. He plans on committing genocide. Nobody who thinks that's an option is sane, therefore by definition crazy. 3. How do you think it will turn out?

I don't think they go back only human and even if I agree with you about the classes, i think the crowwoman will be at last an NPC.

How do you think it will turn out? 1. first it is too obvious in the way of writing. second he is a romance option. and third look how he speak if you take him to redcliff through time travel (he isn't evil) 2. OK worded differently. if you are faced with the choice of either saving your family and killing others with it or of starving and rape your family in miserable conditions, how would you decide. (I understand solas so said i love psychology) the only bad think solas have is his pride and wisdom together. He think he know everything, but he don't.
3. Look at DA2 Solas = the Qunari the main problem the blight or something complet different at the end, fighting by Sola's side (If we let him live).

It being obvious doesn't mean it won't happen. That's called setting up a story. Likewise with him being a romance. He's hardly the first love interest who becomes a villain in a game, or even a Bioware game. He's still planning to do his genocide even after that, so that makes him even worse. 2. I wouldn't murder innocent people. Especially not millions or billions. 3. That sounds absolutely awful, worse than DA4 already is going to be.
