The Gay Knight in Shining Armor

I do like characters with an impeccable moral compass, unwavering in his or her convictions but never crossing the line when it becomes cruel/unfair and does not look to the PC to shelter him/her or solve his or her problems. KISA, not KISA… I dunno. KISA always had a terrible connection with Anomen for me, a character that represented the every worst thing about a video-game romance for me, so… yeah, not a fan of the term itself. Someone I can admire, and point to, and say - there is a better man/woman than I am.

So, for me the bisexual or same-sex characters in Bio games that make the cut are:

Lord Cytherat, Dorian and Fenris.

And I completely disagree that Alistair is one. Played as an Elven PC, and saw the guy too weak-willed and petty for that role.

Over time, my favorite romances in Bio games were in this order: Thane, Bao-Dur/Anders and Dorian.

What’s going to happen in ME:A, I do not know. I would like to romance Jaal, and I hope his character is interesting and the love story is great.

I've never really saw Carver being protective of anyone but himself tbh. Not even with Merrill when they sort of kind of flirt. The strongest impression I got from him was: I want my own spot in the sun!

Carver moving to Andromeda as an NPC is unlikely though.

Sorry, I have never seen that side of him. I only played Act I with him, perhaps he comes across as a strong man in Act iii. Anyways, again, we'll see how Scott is in Andromeda as far as brothers with knightly temperaments go....

Maybe in legacy. His insecurities though were way more front and centre with pretty much every character in Act I, to the degree that it brought out the maternal in me, wanting to shield the poor kid from all the needling and embarrassing stuff Bio threw at him. Not to mention he ended up in the damsel in distress shoes in the Deep Roads, and my character ending up relying on gentle Anders to save him, and making a convincing speech of the "My brother, oh my little brother. Well, he is not so little. He is actually quite a gift. Yes, a gift. And an asset. He is... erm, strong and a good warrior." sort.

Anyway, again, we shall see how default Scott Ryder turns out when you play as Sara.

But I think the OP was more interested in the LIs intended for the PC, and wanted to see a strong, confident, warrior-like man of a very honorable disposition and not of gray morality as a M/M option.

I certainly support this notion, even if I may disagree on the classification of the LIs of the past. Should such Paragon be added in Adromeda, I will be interested to see the lovestory.

It's a shame Carver was a little brother, would've romanced him otherwise. I liked his temperament.

I kind of hate Carver, to be honest. He's too petulant and whiny for me. I can't get into these "rivalry" type characters that spend most of their time being butthurt about not being as good as the protag. Huge turn off for me, probably one of my biggest annoyances. I also usually think of KISA types as both more humble and more confident than that.

Totally agreed.  He was on the path to develop into a really amazing guy in his own right by the end of DA2.

The problem is that he's so easy to kill off.  I mean, you have to play as a mage AND either leave him behind OR take him AND Anders with you in order for him to survive.  I'd imagine that the number of people who actually saw a mature, confident, badass Carver was pretty small.  Sadly.

It would be cool to have two companions where one is the parent of the other. I don't think we've had companions in the same party that are closely related, besides Bethany and Carver in the beginning of DA2.

Oh man, oh noooo! I was really trying to get way from Vetra because I did not wanted to be disappointed but this just sparked a flame again. Dammit. If she is indeed bi, it is going to be a hard choice.

Also did anyone already point out Korra as a perfect KISA too? Hot headed, medium build and has the power of a goddess in her hands. Oh oh oh and Kuvira, not really a good gal but... I am a huge fangirl.

I would love to have a romance option who's like an older version of Korra or Kuvira.

The mom character I have in mind probably wouldn't bother you. Less hovering, and more "I raised him well, he knows, what he's doing." A very strong, proud woman. Plus she could tease them a little, and that could be fun.

I lust after every dwarf and qunari I see. I guess I have low standards.

Just don't be a human in a universe full of aliens and you're all set. :gentleman:
