Meet the Inquisitor, player character of Bioware’s fantasy epic Dragon Age: Inquisition. His/her interests include smiting demons, trudging across awe-inspiring landscapes, and wearing impractical but awesome armour.
This latest trailer from Bioware shows off some of the looks and fighting styles you can choose for your own Inquisitor, and hints at his status as a kind of religious figure for the people of Thedas.
”For almost a thousand years the world believed it was in the hands of the Maker,” says the narrator. ”And now many believe you are the agent of his will.” Interesting use of the past tense with ‘believed’ there. Are we seeing some kind of religious turmoil in the Dragon Age universe, along with breaches into Thedas from the demonic realms of the Fade, and the ongoing battle between Mages and Templars?
That’s a lot for one person to sort out. Even if they are wielding a variety of pointy weapons and deadly spells, and surrounded by elite warriors from each race.
Dragon Age: Inquisition is set for release on November 18 in North America and November 20 in Europe.
