Dragon Age Inquisition: Which Old Companions Will Return?

Published

on

BioWare has recently announced that basically any old character could return to Dragon Age Inquisition, as long as it makes sense in the upcoming narrative. This means that many surprises are yet to come since anyone and especially all the previous companions could return. How? Well, the answer is simple, as I discussed in my previous article about Dragon Age 3 (DA3), the whole story is still being created, which means that the future of every character is not decided yet, thus everyone could get a meaningful purpose in Inquisition. However, there are certainly some characters with stronger probabilities to return compared to others, some due to their past, others due to their beliefs and orientations.

To do this prevision, I’ll use a small quota based on the character’s appearance in the previous games (APG), romance options (RO) and relevant background story that could easily fit in the upcoming plot (RBS). The explanation for the first two variables is basically because characters that are seen more than once have a higher chance to be seen again and all the companions that have been seen twice had romance options enabled. The third variable is related to what cinematic director, Jonathan Perry stated about having a meaningful presence in Inquisition. I’ll be adding an eventual variable in special cases.

Note: 0 is bad, 1 is decent and 2 is good.

 

Let’s find out about who are the most probable companions to be seen again in the upcoming Dragon Age Inquisition.

 

Alistair1. Alistair (DA1, Templar):

Alistair has become the king of Ferelden (in most cases) and as so, he is an imperative icon in the modern history of Thedas. When it comes to global matters that afflict the land, Alistair has to be summoned; he is one of the major political characters of Dragon Age, which makes me convinced that he’ll return. He did return in DA2, the standard story presented him as the king of Ferelden and I believe the same will happen in DA3.

Probability to Return: 2/2 (APG) + 2/2 (RO) + 2/2 (RBS) = 100% Alistair Will Return

 

 

download2. Anders (DA2, Healer):

Anders had a very significant role in DA2 and he was seen before in DA Awakening, however there’s a high chance that his journey finishes at the end of DA2. But, I believe that he could have survived, after all he’s a specialized healer and he has a spirit inside himself. He is the great responsible for the start of this war and it would make perfect sense to see him return and support his fellow mages.

Probability to Return: 2/2 (APG) + 2/2 (RO) + 2/2 (RBS) – 2/2 (Death Possibility) = 75% Anders Will Most Likely Return

download (1)3. Aveline (DA2, Templar):

Aveline has been a close friend of Hawk since the beginning of the fifth blight, however her background story is quite irrelevant regarding the templar-mage war, in fact she is a fair and reasonable woman and she will protect people no matter they’re class or orientation, as long as reason is with them. I don’t think Aveline will return to Inquistion.

Probability to Return: 1/2 (APG) + 0/2 (RO) + 0/2 (RBS) = 16% Aveline Won’t Return

 

 

download (2)4. Bethany (DA2, Mage):

Bethany is Hawk’s sister and she dies at the start of DA2 if players choose to be a mage, however she has a strong background story, she’s another mage on the run. She was able to escape The Circle, but at a high price – running from templars has become part of her daily routine. I doubt Bethany will return to the third game.

Probability to Return: 1/2 (APG) + 0/2 (RO) + 2/2 (RBS) – 2/2 (Death Possibility) = 12% Bethany Won’t Return

draft_lens17590294module147926868photo_1300563420Carver5. Carver (DA2, Warrior):

The same can be said about Carver, he’s Hawk’s brother and if players choose to be a warrior or rogue, Carver dies. He hates mages and he has troubles dealing with Hawk, simply because he is one. I don’t think we’ll be seeing this character again.

Probability to Return: 1/2 (APG) + 0/2 (RO) + 2/2 (RBS) – 2/2 (Death Possibility) = 12%Carver Won’t Return

 

 

Dog_image6. Dog (DA1, Warrior):

Dog was an animal companion and fighter in Dragon Age Origins. It was saved by the Warden during the blight and he kept the animal. It would be funny to see this brave canine once again but I don’t think it has any relevance in the upcoming plot.

Probability to Return: 1/2 (APG) + 0/2 (RO) + 0/2 (RBS) = 16% Dog Won’t Return

download (3)

7. Fenris (DA2, Warrior):

Fenris has a profound hate for every single mage out there, after all mages have ruined his life and destroyed his family. He has every motive to destroy those gifted with magic and he is willing to fight for the templar’s cause no matter what. However, Fenris has shown compassion for mages able to control their powers, which sadly are a rare species.

Probability to Return: 1/2 (APG) + 2/2 (RO) + 2/2 (RBS) = 83%Fenris Will Most Likely Return

 

 

8. Isabela (DA2, Assassin):

Isabela is a seductive pirate and she has a long history in the Dragon Age series already. She had a great role in DA2, since she messed with the Qunari people and stole their sacred book. Her personal story isn’t that significant towards the new war but she will surely start trouble somewhere, I believe she will return.

Probability to Return: 2/2 (APG) + 2/2 (RO) + 1/2 (RBS) = 83% Isabela Will Most Likely Return

9. Leliana (DA1, Bard):

Leliana is a bard with a lot of faith in the lord. At the end of DA2, it was revealed that Cassandra and Leliana were looking for the great heroes of Thedas, in order to put an end to the mage-templar war. Cassandra will surely return, it has been announced by Bioware. Leliana may return, even though nothing has been announced so far, things are quite bright for her.

Probability to Return: 1/2 (APG) + 2/2 (RO) + 2/2 (RBS) = 83% Leliana Will Most Likely Return

 

 

10. Morrigan (DA1, Shapeshifter):

Morrigan is the devil and the saint, the fire and the water… this female mage has everything with her and even though there was no sign of her during DA2, it’s confirmed that she’ll be back in Inquisition and possibly with a great role.

Probability to Return: 1/2 (APG) + 2/2 (RO) + 2/2 (RBS) + 1 (Announced) = 100%Morrigan Will Return

Merrill_Portrait11. Merrill (DA2, Mage):

This cute mage had a terrible experience with demons and blood magic but Hawk managed to save her in time. Merrill may be stubborn and naïve but she will always fight for her own. I’m not sure if BioWare will bring her back but her chances are quite positive.

Probability to Return: 2/2 (APG) + 2/2 (RO) + 1/2 (RBS) = 83% Merrill Will Most Likely Return

 

 

download (4)12. Oghren (DA1, Warrior):

Oghren was part of DA1 and its expansion; he was always a fearless dwarf able to use his double weapon without any hesitation. His background isn’t that significant and I doubt that Inquisition will bring him back.

Probability to Return: 2/2 (APG) + 0/2 (RO) + 0/2 (RBS) = 33% Oghren Probably Won’t Return

Sten13. Sten (DA1, Warrior):

This strange Qunari showed himself a loyal servant during the fifth blight but he barely revealed anything about himself during his service time. Somehow he manages to step up and lead his people after the fall of their previous leader.

Probability to Return: 1/2 (APG) + 0/2 (RO) + 0/2 (RBS) + 2 (Sten becomes the Qunari Arishok after DA2 events) = 50% Sten May Return

 

 

270px-Варрик14. Varric, (DA2, Marksman):

Varric was one of the main stars of DA2. He was the one narrating the whole Hawk’s journey, his/her ascendance and his/her disappearance. If before there were any doubt about his returning, with BioWare’s demo, then there’s none. Varric won’t just return, he’ll be a possible companion as well.

Probability to Return: 1/2 (APG) + 0/2 (RO) + 1/2 (RBS) + 4 (Announced) = 100% Varric Will Return

download (5)15. Wynne (DA1, Healer):

Wynne was a kind healer back on Origins, she accompanied the Warden during his/her mission, however she presented decaying signs, meaning she knew very well her death was close. Her end was inevitable… She died during the Dragon Age novel Asunder.

Probability to Return: 1/2 (APG) + 0/2 (RO) + 1/2 (RBS) – 2 (Deceased) = 0% Wynne Won’t Return

 

 

ZevranBetter16. Zevran (DA1, Assassin):

The shameless assassin, Zevran, he’ll probably return, especially because he came back in DA2 and he even had a special quest where he flirted with Hawk! That’s a great sign right? Who knows if there won’t be another chance for a threesome with Zevran.

Probability to Return: 2/2 (APG) + 2/2 (RO) + 1/2 (RBS) – 1 (Death Possibility) = 83% Zevran Will Most Likely Return

    Actually, there is a very high chance that Sten will return due to the events of ‘Dragon Age: Until We Sleep’. I won’t spoil anything about the comic but since the whole world is thrown into chaos in Dragon Age Inquisition but I strongly believe that the Inquisitor will meet a certain Qunari.

      Thanks a lot for your constructive comment. I checked out and there’s a comic featuring Sten as an Arishok, which means he may return after all.

    Wynne died in the Dragon Age novel called Asunder, written by David Gaider, the lead writer of the franchise. She wont come back :(

      Then my suspicious are correct, thanks for the info, I’ve updated it.

    Not that it affects the default storyline, but Alistair actually can die in the first Dragon Age — if Anora becomes Queen and the Warden spares Loghain, when Alistair ragequits the party Anora demands his execution. It’s easy to prevent this, but it can happen.

    Also, really minor point, but Merrill appears in both games, potentially — she’s a member of the Dalish Warden’s tribe and even shows up at the celebration at the end of the game. I don’t really think that affects your analysis, but there it is.

    November 10, 2013 at 11:01 pm

    Oh. And Alistair can die to kill the Archdemon! Can’t believe I forgot that; it’s even an achievement.

    • Marta Branco

      November 10, 2013 at 11:21 pm

      Yes, that’s true. But as I said he was put as the Ferelden king on the standard DA 2 story.

    Shouldn’t Leliana and Merrill both have (2/2) APGs? Leliana made up to three cameos in Dragon Age 2 (DA II’s Ending, Exiled Prince DLC, and Mark of the Assassin DLC), and Merrill first appeared in the Dalish Origin story of DA:O.

  6. Michajlowycz

    November 26, 2013 at 7:05 pm

    I think Merrill is very likely to appear in the DA:I, because:
    1)She appeared in both DA:O and DA2.
    2)She is a powerful mage, that, I’m sure, could make an impact on the Templar-Mages war.
    3)When playing DA2 I got really intrested in her mysterious mirror. I hope that she will be able to use it to, for example, aquire the Elves’ Immortality and become even more powerful mage.
    4)She seems to know a bit about Asha’Belanaar – Flemeth. Her knowledge may be of use in finding out why the portal from the Fade opened. Flemeth has to be involved in this, I’m 100% sure.

    Its funny to read this while knowing that most of the characters you tought might come back didn’t came back at all. Mostly minor characters from previous games returned like connor or dagna.Like i don’t see why you thought isabella and like merril would return.The qunari weren’t the real treath in DA2 so isabella stealing their book would be a minor thing in a world in which the veil has breached.Also even tho merril has had a thing with demons, to much characters coming back from DA2 would let the game look and feel to much like DA2. For me I’d really hoped that Oghren would return and let him interact with varric but i knew this was very unlikely.Also the fact that they returned hawke in the flesh and not the warden kinda bums me i think the developers should have gave the warden alot more input in this game except a silly letter.

Best Usenet Newsgroups for Gaming

Usenet newsgroups may seem old-fashioned to many. In reality, they are the perfect place for players who love the classics but are always open to new games and strategies.

Initially, Usenet was utilized only for academic and professional exchanges. However, it soon turned into a prevalent method for communicating among hobbyists and gaming groups. Presently, even though Usenet has been surpassed by newer platforms in terms of popularity, it continues to be an important tool for knowledgeable users who value its special mix of staying anonymous with fast communication. Knowledgeable users also love access to vast archives containing historical information and software applications that are no longer available elsewhere on the Internet.

In these threads, not only will you encounter a variety of views from across the globe, but you may also land on gaming tricks and shortcuts that are lesser known. For those who are new, remember that every group has its own tone and rules. Lurking for a while should help you understand community norms and ensure your contributions are accepted.

Specialized Gaming Newsgroups

Specialized newsgroups are designed for particular gaming communities. They provide a discussion environment that is more centered and focused. These groups are ideal for users who really love a particular game and want to explore it in great depth.

Encouraging Growth and Motivation: Resources for Child Development

Child development is a complex journey marked by critical milestones where each stride forward builds upon the foundation of the previous one. Acknowledging children’s individual needs, pediatric therapy services tailor strategies to foster physical, emotional, and cognitive growth. To support this transformative process, environments that prompt curiosity and engagement, coupled with advanced educational tools, play an instrumental role in shaping young minds. These resources, carefully selected and applied, can significantly amplify a child’s developmental trajectory. Keep reading to learn about the effective ways these tools and techniques can aid in advancing childhood milestones.

Pediatric Therapy Services: Enhancing Developmental Milestones

img

Pediatric therapy services support children as they reach and surpass developmental milestones. These services, often provided by skilled therapists, address various growth challenges, ensuring each child has the best possible start in life. From speech and occupational therapy to physical and behavioral interventions, these professionals tailor their approach to meet the unique needs of every young patient.

Therapists work relentlessly to motivate children, fostering an environment where milestones are not merely achieved but celebrated. Through personalized, one-on-one sessions, children gain the confidence and skills necessary to navigate their developmental journeys more easily. The trust between therapist and child is a solid foundation for consistent progress and paves the path for lifelong learning and adaptation.

Resource provision is a key component of pediatric therapy, equipping parents with the tools to continue therapy practices at home. Effective communication between therapists and families ensures a cohesive strategy that envelops the child’s daily routine, enhancing the therapy’s impact. It also allows parents to identify subtle progress, reinforcing their pivotal role in the child’s developmental success.

If you’re looking for pediatric therapy in your area, a simple Google search like “pediatric therapy Arizona” will help you find local providers and services tailored to your child’s needs, ensuring they receive the specialized care necessary for their development.

Optimizing Play Spaces: Creating Environments for Learning and Exploration

img

Optimized play spaces are vital platforms where children engage with their world, build skills, and unleash their creativity. Designers of such areas pay astute attention to elements that promote safe exploration and intellectual stimulation. A thoughtfully arranged play environment serves as a place of entertainment and a crucible for burgeoning development.

Professionals incorporate a variety of tactile and visual stimuli within play areas to cater to diverse developmental needs and interests. Stimulating sensory experiences is central to cognitive and motor skill refinement among younger populations. The intentional selection of colors, textures, and interactive features sparks curiosity and encourages physical activity, which is fundamental to healthy growth.

Accessibility remains paramount in creating play spaces, ensuring they cater to children across all abilities. Including adaptive resources within these environments demonstrates a commitment to inclusive development, allowing every child to participate and benefit from the joy and learning play offers. Such inclusiveness fosters a sense of community and belonging, which is essential for emotional and social development.

Affording children autonomy in their play advances self-directed learning and problem-solving capabilities. When children feel empowered to make choices within their play, they better understand their preferences and abilities, setting the stage for confidence and self-awareness — qualities that are instrumental as children grow and transition through life’s stages.

Additionally, incorporating elements like fake plants or outdoor plants from retailers like Nearly Natural outdoor plants into play spaces can enhance children’s sensory and aesthetic experience.

Interactive Learning Tools: Technology and Resources for Cognitive Development

Interactive learning tools harness technology’s power to solidify children’s cognitive development. These digital resources provide an array of engaging, educational content that aligns with critical thinking and problem-solving skills.

Software and applications designed for children’s learning capitalize on the allure of multimedia to capture young minds. Effective education solutions provide children with stimulating challenges that are age-appropriate and aligned with developmental targets.

The discerning use of educational technology in classrooms and homes can reinforce concepts and skills taught through traditional methods. It creates a harmonious blend of instruction and interactive play, thereby cementing a child’s understanding and retention of information.

Providers of such educational platforms are ever vigilant, updating content to reflect new educational strategies and the latest academic research. Thus, children equipped with these technological tools remain at the vanguard of current learning methodologies, all while engrossed in fun and dynamic ways.
Overall, caregivers and educators can provide comprehensive support for children’s developmental journeys by integrating pediatric therapy services, optimized play spaces, and interactive learning tools. These resources nurture their physical, emotional, and cognitive growth and cultivate a lifelong love for learning and exploration.

The Lifelong Returns of Investing in Your Education

Investing in education is akin to planting seeds that blossom into numerous opportunities. Beyond financial gains, education forms the bedrock for career success and personal fulfillment. It empowers individuals to pursue their passions, enhances job satisfaction, and boosts self-esteem through academic achievements. Education serves as a catalyst for social mobility, breaking cycles of poverty by equipping people with the skills needed to improve their lives and contribute positively to society.

Personal Growth and Lifelong Learning Through Education

It fosters resilience and adaptability, which are essential in all aspects of life. A strong educational foundation encourages lifelong learning, ensuring individuals remain relevant and proactive in their professional and personal lives.
