The Gay Knight in Shining Armor

Noooo! Can you tell me, or is it top secret? No worries either way.

If Jaal can fit this, I'm all for it. But as far as having a gay Knight in Shining Armor Companion in Dragon Age 4? No, do not want. After being railroaded into being the hero in Inquisition, I want to embrace Tevinter's evil empire. I want Companions who ooze greed and decadence, lies and blackmail, fear and oppression, hate and brutality. I want UNLIMITED POWAAAHHHH!!!!!! Ok, they don't all have to be assholes, but I think it would be a nice change of pace if they looked evil at first, and the player discovered that they were more nuanced later, as opposed to the clichéd "hero with a dark secret" trope DA has played out. Anyway, I've been playing Obsidian's Tyranny lately, and it kicks ass .

Seriously though, the biggest problem I have for this scenario is that truly moral people in Tevinter usually end up broken or dead. The constant scheming for power, the spies and paranoia, the inflexible laws and caste systems, the slavery, blood magic, and constant war with the Qunari does not allow good people to flourish in the Imperium. You could certainly have characters with a strong personal code of honor, but I don't see how such codes would necessarily match what most people here seem to want. Dragon Age has always been a dark, adult fantasy with complex characters and no easy answers. For the writers to introduce gay KISAs in DA4 who are somehow able to avoid any kind of moral compromise, especially in Tevinter, would break lore, immersion, and internal reality. The only way I could find such a character believable is if they suffer clear consequences for their code, and have the very real possibility of failing and/or changing.

I remember this thread from long ago. Tbh, I just found out they made a new BW forum lol. Guess we couldn't let go.

Anyways, I've personally never been into stereotypical KISA good boys.

I like edge and one day, I hope we get a male Morrigan type romance from Tevinter. One who has seriously questionable morals, is mysterious, might make you wanna punch him and yet is super sexy and charming...and he likes men.

Maybe a Tevinter Templar with vastly different powers than andrastian templars.Something darker and more sinister, while also being a great tank to keep around in battle.

I hope BW grants us something like that, KISA are soooo boring I might die.
