Behold a look into the back alleys of old Minrathous and a new character concept art.

Love her robes/coat and staff; nice evolution of DAI's Tevinter aesthetics. Cannot make my mind up on that hat though. It really... looks awkward together with everything else.

I'm more curious to know if they are friend or foe. If they are producing that red lyrium glow, as seems likely, then I'd say the latter. Ah, ugly mage hats are back I see? Surely better than the jester cap that Alexius sported. Mind you it doesn't exactly scream Tevinter fashion, based off earlier examples, so maybe this lady is from elsewhere.

Mage hats have been...problematic. This is a quantum leap improvement from the head condoms of DAO.

Ah yes, it wouldn't be a Dragon Age game without divisive mage head gear. But seriously I have no issues with the one the character is wearing in the concept art. It matches the style of Tevinter and keeps the rain out of your face, which could be a fatal distraction when using magic.

This type is slightly better... when modded to have darker colours.
Though it is beyond me why we can't simply get... ordinary hoods? This one on DAI was a step into the right direction... if they could fix/avoid ear or cheek clipping for the crafted version.

That's why Dorian hated the south so much, although admittedly it was cold as well as wet. I would add that Dorian looks very dashing in one of those hats. I dressed him up to look like Zorro and had him galloping around the countryside on one of my horses.

I dressed him up to look like Zorro and had him galloping around the countryside on one of my horses. Perhaps constantly using magic has affected the weather? Keeping buildings afloat must have some consequences on the climate and environment. Perhaps the constant use of lyrium as resulted in a radiation type phenomenon which is affecting the city. Or perhaps the area of Minrathous has a wet season.

For reference, Victorian steampunk + magic = Gaslamp Fantasy.However, if the formula is magic replacing modern trappings + cynicism of cyberpunk, then it’s Dungeon Punk. I think Minrathous is likely the latter. Why would mages even need hats anyway? To confer magical bonuses. You can only wear so many rings and belts. Also, they’re stylish.

All together now, to the tune of “Meet Me in St Louis” Meet me in Minrathous, Rathaus Meet me at the Piiiiiits. If we see a Dorian Pavus We shall give him fiiiiiiits. Last rhyme could be blue if you don’t really like Dorian, I guess. On the art, I am getting more villain than hero vibe. Hearing Hall and Oates “Maneater” in the back of my head, but that could just be me.

Looks like more covered version of The Skin That Stalks/Calpernia amrour/Sidony armour. I'm all for it. And give me all fancy hats as long as they don't have ugly caps and I can switch them on individual companions. Websites: Dragon Age 4 will be likely set in Tevinter. Bet we'll get articles like that till game launches and we get slapped in the face with visage of Minrathous in-game.

You know, what this outfit reminds me of? The hunter's outfit in Bloodborne. You can wear different outfits there, but the most iconic looks a lot like this one.

With that name, does it have anything to do with the short story in Tevinter Nights?
Also, I really like the hat, I'm just not sure I like it for a DA setting.

The more I look at this image the more I fall in love with it. The amount of detail dedicated to her staff and outfit is extraordinary. It’s gorgeous! She certainly seems like she’s going to be a major player. Given the red lyrium, maybe a villain? She definitely gives off the “you really wanna try it?” vibe and I’m loving it
