    I think you pointed out some incredible details on the taro cards. I agree with you. I think Lucanis has the most beautiful card.
    Lucanis is one of the companions, just like Bellara, who is really starting to grow on me more and more.
    As I said before, I'm definitely romancing Davrin. He is just like EVERYONE is too cute to resist. 🥰
    I love your theory around Davrin it fits and makes sense, especially when you read "The Horror of Hormak."
    This just has my brain running a muck thinking about the spiders with hands. 😱 It was in the behind the scenes of BioWare for Dragon Age that short video.

    Definitely interesting stuff! You've given me hope that magic is just becoming more widespread in general. I think that Davrin's going to be our sole Dalish companion; Bellara's looks like a very different style to me. Lucanis fascinates me, and I think Emmrich's just going to be lovely to chat with.

    I would like to say in inquisition rogues had a purplish aura around their attacks so maybe that’s what it is for Harding this early in the game because I think Harding getting magic is going to be something we see first hand instead of it just happening off screen between games but it could be wrong.

      @LisaLynnsTavern  5 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      I'm not sure. It would be hard for Bellara to use a different weapon cause of her gauntlet, but I could see us being able to give Harding a different bow or Taash a different set of dual weapons. One of the Game Informer articles talked about gear, and there it was mentioned that companions have a slot for armour, ring, accessory and weapon. It's possible we could give different weapons to all companions except Bellara, similar to how it worked with Varric and Bianca in DA2 and Inquisition.

    Movies love to describe the heart as being somewhere around the area of a person's left nipple, but that is actually false. The heart is in the center of the chest, not on the left. It is tilted to lean to the left in the chest because of all the major arteries that go to the left, but the muscle itself is very much in the middle. If you shoot someone on the left side of the chest, you will not hit their heart. They will absolutely die, but you will not hit the heart.

    So far my favourite companion is Emmrich I think. Intimate, sensual and a silver fox to boot? Yes please! :D
    Also is Manfred and Johanna wearing the same glasses? Maybe Manfred is a spirit who has taken up residence in Johanna's skeleton?
    Oh and I tried looking closer at his gloved hand, and although his palm is definitely of a normal skin colour - looking at his fingers it looks like he got nails. I dobht he glued nails on his glove. Also the rings on the gloved fingers looks way too tight to allow for any blood circulation. Totally sus :D

      Though I did find a loophole, which is to be trans by the terms of the Qunari. Which basically means insisting on doing the wrong job. Qunari apparently accept trans people, but their definition is different than ours. So you can be a trans man who fights, but you cannot be a trans man who farms.

      @@wintertrooper7918 No woman would be assigned as a warrior. It's considered a waste of resources under the Qun. Because no matter how talented a woman may be, a man will always be better. Better to find out what else the woman is talented at, and assign her to that category.
      The Qunari do have the concept of Aqun-Athlok, which is born as one gender and living as another. They are transgender. They are no longer your average, everyday Qunari.
      So you can be a woman and farm. You can be a trans man and be a warrior. You cannot be a trans man and farm because farming is a woman's job.
      Or you can become Tal'Vashoth and it doesn't matter because you're not living under the Qun.
      I mean, the Qun is basically like the Bible. You don't have to be of the Qunari species and follow the Qun. You won't actually be Qunari if you don't, since that means follower of the Qun, but you can do that. And you become Tal'Vashoth.
      The Qunari essentially live in a communist theocracy. Which is really interesting. But one of the things you do in a theocracy is believe in a certain religion and follow its tenets. The Qun assigns jobs for the good of its people based on their gender. That's really the end of the story there. And they've said that since pretty much the beginning.

      While you could be right about the bow being enchanted in the section they showed off for the gameplay reveal, Harding having magic has basically been confirmed by her description on the Dragon Age website, which says that she has ''unexpected magical powers''. If it was just an enchanted bow, I don't think they would word it like that? The fact that they put it in her description in the first place makes it pretty significant, I think. We have no clue yet to what extend she is able to use magic, or how it'll even work, though. It's possible she gains those powers later in the game.
