I have two visions for Rook: the first I really like, but she'd have a rather similar look to Harding (freckled redhead), although Human. Pretty much the only deterrent, cuz I like my team looking like a Benetton ad. And then the second, would be sort of a throwback to the Hero of Ferelden (it's been a minute!), but just in terms of like, for example, eye and hair color, not the whole look of course, or vibe, personality... nothing. These concepts are constantly changing and evolving, being refined, and I can't wait to see more - like the Character Creator and faction last names, because those things help, too!. And we'll see how it goes!

Hmm. My first Warden was a human male warrior. A mistake, in hindsight, but we didn't know that DA2 would be human only. DA2, obviously Hawke, but female mage.
First Inquisitor was a female Qunari Rogue.
So....guess it'll either be a male dwarven Lord of Fortune rogue (for maximum swashbuckling) or a female elf (same class/faction). Unless one of the other factions seems really cool once we learn what their unique buffs are.

A morbidly obese bobo-the-clown showing off their rogue hopping and backflip abilities. Kidding (though we all know it's coming). I'll continue my human noble mage "supremacy" streak where I head-cannoned in DAI the Amell's and Trevelyan's share an ancestor...and do something similar with my Rook and the Nevarran's or Tevinter's nobility shared kinship with the Trevelyan's. Mourn Watch will probably fit that best.

Mourn Watch will probably fit that best. There are strong links with both Tevinter and the Freemarches (Nevarra was originally just a city state like the rest). Also, Cassandra is Nevarran royalty, even if the Pentaghasts are very numerous, and her uncle was a high ranking Mortalitasi, so that is probably the same for the rest of the nobility in Nevarra. Just as other families tend to give at least one offspring to the service of the Chantry, I dare say in Nevarra the tradition is to give at least one member to the Mourn Watch, whether a mage or not. Mages would also appear to have held status in Nevarra in defiance of the general rule for southern Thedas since the establishment of the Chantry. So, I agree that for a noble origin the Mourn Watch would probably be the best fit.

Yes i have planed to play this game more than once.

I still have no complete picture of my first Rook.
- Pretty sure I’ll go Female. - Depending on the CC I might go with Qunari, if only because then my Canon world state would have one of each race. However, I will need to see what backgrounds they give each race first. - I really liked DD Duelist Rogue in DA2, so I'm pretty sure I’ll start with that. - Still not sure about Faction. GW and Crows are the only ones I know enough about to be comfortable with. However I’d prefer not being in the same faction as a LI and so far I’m leaning towards Lucanis or Davrin.
That’s about where I am. Do not think I’ll get much further before getting my hands on the CC.

So just wonder how much of our choices are going to be neglected as we play the game and even get on closer to launch. Like you're probably fine but if they mention my boy, if I go for Crow, as growing up in Antiva I am screwed. Of course maybe this is why I should worry about retroactively coming up with a backstory after the fact.

In DA2, I played as a female mage voiced by Jo Wyatt. I like her voice. I never did a playthrough with the male voice. In DAI, AWR was confirmed as a main va. I chose her voice, mostly because I liked her voice in ME3. My first playthrough was as a mage. I eventually did playthrough's using all voices, but always went back to AWR. Until I hear all main voices for this game, I don't know if I will choose male or female. I will say my first playthrough will be as a mage. The faction I will choose for my first playthrough is Lord's of Fortune.

I would like to know sooner rather than later if we have a designated surname based on race and/or faction...I'll write a brief backstory or not depending.

Male Crow Assassin. Really keeping everything crossed there's going to be darker roleplaying options to be able to do this properly.

As a player, I tend to be a good boy who follows the rules and sticks with "what the game intended" or "what makes sense for this setting".
Since the game and the story are yelling at me that Rook (Mythal's tits, couldn't they think of a cooler nickname?) must be a rogue, then a rogue s/he will be.
As for race and sex, she will be a female Qunari because that was my very first Dragon Age character (I was introduced though DAI).
And well... since players already are very upset at this game, I fear we may not get another due to bad reception. So I might as well fulfill my wish to have a canon Qunari hero while I still can.

I played around a bit with the BG3 CC to get a start of a visual idea for my 2 Rooks I plan to play first, that I will shape more once we get the DAV CC (if we get it before launch, fingers crossed). 1. Elf female mage, Grey Warden (assuming the elves will be Dalish only, like in DAI) 2. Qunari female warrior, Veil Jumper (assuming we'll get to plonk some face tattoos on Qunari this time and it won't be only vitaar; hopefully we can also customize the color of the horns or horn jewelry)

This is frustrating abut I would feel a lot more confident about fully buying into my plans I got for Rook if we could do the surname since if we get an Antivan Crow mandated to have an Antivan surname and then have that Antivan grow up in Antiva it makes it a lot more tenous. But since there is doubt I really hope they announce the CC soon so we can actually see it in action and see what we can and can't do.

For my first PT, I'm thinking of going Full-Pirate-y Lord of Fortune. Isabela... a Giant Galleon... the Rivaini Sea... 10/10. I think that's a great way to do it on a first playthrough, because you're kind of a neutral party and can experience the game with more freedom. Fortune and the sea are your lords, not the duty to end the blight or anything else . But I am overthing my class/spec, though. A lot.

So the GI adds a further niggle to the equation. Each of the specs have something to do with one of the factions. This was an obvious conclusion based on Veil Ranger but not sure how much magic I want Oliver to have either and I assume the Veil Jumpers will be quite magical. So it really will come down to saboteur or VR for his spec based on what it means by traps and just how magical VR will be.

I will definitely go crow. Not sure which gender, need to know more about the romance characters. And don't know the Class. But i will go with Human or Elve. As i have Zevran and Josephine romance in this world state, my crow HC want to change the organisation. And working with the Inquisition to get them to help. I am not sure what we can appoint for the faction, but if i can HC will be a runaway with special power. As we see the specializations, i will go for: mage (spellblade)
But slayer and evoker sound good. I will have fun playing with this skill tree.

More I think on it the more I realize I have to be more flexible. I am pretty wedded to my idea of a Tevinter Squib (to borrow from the Harry Potter universe) because it would be such a cool concept to have but honestly there will probably be no way to express this in game with any of the dialogue options, even if he would have his personality and RP informed by such things.
